Source

The name, address, phone number and open status come from the restaurant's Google Maps listing and 250 of the 780 reviews on it, read on 19 Oct 2026. The latest sign that it is still open is the owner replying to reviews around 12 Oct 2026. The house number "10/49" was read from the shop sign in a front photo the owner posted on Google Maps. The location was cross-checked against the "Start Up Coffee" point on OpenStreetMap (edited 22 Mar 2025), about 20 m from the Maps pin. Dish prices, the most-mentioned dishes, the setting and the regular crowd all come from Google Maps reviews, with dates estimated from each review's age (around Oct 2025 to Sep 2026). There is no dated menu from the restaurant itself, so the budget price tier rests on prices reported by guests. Not used: opening hours, because four sources (Google Maps, Tripadvisor, OpenStreetMap, HappyCow 2019) give four different opening times and two guests found it closed during the listed hours; the old phone number on HappyCow, Tripadvisor and Mapstr; a single review's "200–300 thousand VND per person"; the Tripadvisor details, because the page could not be reopened (HTTP 403); and the "work & chill" description in a promotional article by Sun Paradise Land (12 Sep 2025), because it does not match the reviews. Photos come from Google Maps, posted by guests and by the owner, with no open licence.
