Restaurant in Da Nang, Vietnam
Back-to-back Bibs. Book it.
Consecutive Michelin Bib Gourmand winner in 2024 and 2025, Bé Ni 2 is the seafood address to book in Da Nang at the ₫₫ price point. A 4.8-star rating from nearly 10,000 Google reviews confirms consistent execution. At this level of independent validation and accessible pricing, it is the strongest value case in Da Nang's seafood category.
At the ₫₫ price point, Bé Ni 2 delivers something most seafood restaurants in Da Nang cannot match: consecutive Michelin Bib Gourmand recognition in both 2024 and 2025, backed by a 4.8-star rating across 9,534 Google reviews. That combination of independent validation and sustained crowd approval is rare at this price tier. If you are visiting Da Nang and seafood is on your agenda, this is the address to book first.
Bé Ni 2 sits on Võ Nguyên Giáp in the Sơn Trà district, a stretch of Da Nang coastline that has long been associated with fresh seafood restaurants serving both locals and travellers. The Bib Gourmand designation from Michelin, awarded in consecutive years, signals a kitchen delivering cooking quality that inspires a detour at a price point that does not require a special occasion to justify. That is the Bib Gourmand's specific brief, and Bé Ni 2 has earned it twice running.
The ₫₫ pricing puts Bé Ni 2 firmly in the accessible-but-not-bargain category. You are spending more than you would at a street-side bowl of Bánh Mì Phượng in Hoi An or a plate at Bún Bò Bà Rơi in Hai Chau, but you are still a long way below the luxury tier occupied by venues like La Maison 1888. For the quality level the awards indicate, the value proposition is strong. Da Nang's seafood offering at this price point is competitive, but consistent Michelin recognition narrows the shortlist considerably.
The cuisine is Vietnamese seafood, the format most associated with Da Nang's coastal dining identity. The city sits at the centre of a coastline that supplies the kind of daily-catch freshness that defines what seafood cooking at this level should taste like. Vietnamese seafood preparation at a Bib Gourmand standard typically involves clean, direct flavour work — grilling, steaming, and sauce-based preparations that let the primary ingredient carry the dish rather than obscuring it. That approach rewards the kind of ingredient sourcing a well-regarded Da Nang seafood kitchen would prioritise.
Editorial angle worth highlighting for the explorer visiting Da Nang for a long weekend: Bé Ni 2 is genuinely suited to a late-morning or extended midday meal. Vietnam's seafood restaurant culture often operates across a wider daytime window than Western dinner-service norms suggest, and a mid-morning arrival to secure a table before the lunch crowd builds is a practical tactic at a venue drawing nearly 10,000 Google reviews. Coming early also means first access to whatever the morning's catch has produced. For the food-focused traveller, that is not a minor detail.
9,534 Google reviews at 4.8 stars represent a scale of public feedback that goes well beyond the typical restaurant sample. At that volume, the rating is statistically credible rather than the product of a loyal but small reviewer base. It suggests consistent execution across many visits, many service windows, and many different customer expectations , the hallmark of a kitchen with reliable operational standards rather than occasional brilliance.
For context within Vietnam's broader Michelin-recognised seafood scene, Bé Ni 2 occupies a distinct position: accessible, locally rooted, and repeatedly validated. Travellers who have eaten at Anan Saigon in Ho Chi Minh City or Hibana by Koki in Hanoi and are working their way through the country's Michelin-recognised addresses will find Bé Ni 2 a natural addition. It is a different register from either of those, but the award credential is credible and the price makes it low-risk to find out for yourself.
Comparable seafood restaurants elsewhere along Da Nang's coastline include My Hanh Seafood, Bé Mặn, and Năm Đảnh. None carry the same Michelin certification, which gives Bé Ni 2 a concrete differentiator rather than a marketing claim. If the Bib Gourmand designation matters to your decision, the choice is clear. If you are primarily optimising for price, the ₫ venues in the city will cost less , but they are not in the same validated quality bracket.
Booking difficulty is rated Easy, which is meaningful at a Michelin-recognised address. Many Bib Gourmand venues in Asia at this recognition level develop wait times that complicate casual planning. Bé Ni 2 appears accessible without the advance-booking pressure of a starred kitchen, which makes it a practical option for travellers building a flexible itinerary. Walk-in feasibility is higher here than at tighter-format venues, though arriving at peak lunch or dinner hours at a 4.8-rated restaurant with nearly 10,000 reviews carries its own queue risk.
For the food-focused traveller covering Central Vietnam, the logical circuit connects Bé Ni 2 with Rice Bowl in Hue City and Duyên Anh Restaurant in Phu Vang for a broader picture of the region's cooking. Da Nang also offers Mi Quang Ba Vi in Thanh Khe for a noodle counterpoint to the seafood focus.
Further afield, travellers with a specific interest in the seafood genre can benchmark Bé Ni 2's approach against Gambero Rosso in Marina di Gioiosa Ionica or Alici Restaurant on the Amalfi Coast. The Vietnamese coastal context is its own distinct category, but the shared commitment to fresh, simply prepared seafood makes the comparison useful for positioning expectations.

Quick reference: Vietnamese seafood | ₫₫ price range | Michelin Bib Gourmand 2024 & 2025 | 4.8 stars (9,534 reviews) | 228 Võ Nguyên Giáp, Sơn Trà, Da Nang | Booking difficulty: Easy
Booking difficulty is Easy. No advance reservation pressure comparable to starred venues, but a 4.8-rated address with nearly 10,000 reviews will draw a crowd at peak hours. Arriving mid-morning for an early lunch sitting is the practical approach, both to secure a table and to access the freshest daily catch. No booking method is confirmed in available data; walk-in appears viable outside peak windows.
Specific menu items are not confirmed in available data, so this is the honest answer: order what is fresh that day. At a Michelin Bib Gourmand Vietnamese seafood kitchen, the kitchen's strengths are in daily-catch preparations. Ask the staff what arrived that morning. If you need a framework, grilled and steamed whole fish and shellfish preparations are the format this type of Da Nang seafood restaurant is built around. Avoid over-ordering , the ₫₫ pricing makes it tempting to go wide, but quality over quantity is the smarter approach at a venue this recognised.
No dress code is specified, and at the ₫₫ price point in a Da Nang seafood context, smart-casual is more than sufficient. This is not a formal dining environment. Clean, comfortable clothes appropriate for a coastal Vietnamese city in the heat are the practical choice. No requirement to dress up.
Yes. At ₫₫ pricing with Easy booking, a solo visit is low-commitment and low-cost. Vietnamese seafood restaurants in this format typically have table configurations that work for one or two diners without the awkwardness of large-group-only formats. The trade-off for solo diners is that you can cover fewer dishes , bring a dining partner if you want to work through more of the menu.
For seafood at a similar price tier, My Hanh Seafood, Bé Mặn, and Năm Đảnh are the Da Nang names to consider. None carry Michelin recognition. If you want to step up in price and format, La Maison 1888 at ₫₫₫₫ is the city's formal fine-dining option, but it is a completely different experience and price bracket. For cheaper eating in the city, Ăn Thôi and Cô Chủ Nhỏ at ₫ are worth knowing, though neither competes with Bé Ni 2 on validated quality credentials.
No tasting menu is confirmed in available data for Bé Ni 2. As a Bib Gourmand Vietnamese seafood restaurant at ₫₫ pricing, this is not a multi-course omakase-style venue. The value case here is a well-priced à la carte seafood meal with Michelin-backed cooking quality, not a structured tasting progression. If a tasting-menu format is what you are after in Vietnam, look at starred venues in Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City rather than expecting that format here.

Comparing your options in Da Nang for this tier.
The menu is seafood-focused, which is the reason the Michelin Bib Gourmand committee flagged this address two years running. Stick to whatever is freshest on the day — coastal seafood restaurants on the Võ Nguyên Giáp strip work to market availability, so ask staff what came in that morning rather than arriving with a fixed order in mind. At ₫₫ pricing, the risk of ordering widely is low.
Casual clothes are appropriate. Bé Ni 2 is a Bib Gourmand seafood spot in Sơn Trà, not a fine-dining room — the Bib designation specifically recognises good food at accessible prices, which sets the tone. Lightweight, practical clothing suits both the format and Da Nang's coastal heat.
It works for solo diners, though seafood restaurants at this price point tend to reward groups who can spread across more dishes. Solo, you can still get meaningful coverage of the menu at ₫₫ without overspending. The venue's high review volume suggests consistent throughput, so solo guests are unlikely to feel out of place.
For a step up in format and price, La Maison 1888 is the fine-dining benchmark in the region. Ăn Thôi and Cô Chủ Nhỏ offer locally focused menus at comparable or lower price points if you want to move away from seafood. Le Comptoir suits those after a European-influenced dining room. Bé Ni 2 holds the Bib Gourmand credential that none of these share, which makes it the clearest choice if value-to-quality seafood is the specific brief.
Tasting menu details are not confirmed in available venue data for Bé Ni 2. What is confirmed: this is a Michelin Bib Gourmand seafood address at ₫₫ pricing, where the value case is already strong on à la carte terms. If a set menu option exists, the ₫₫ price tier means the outlay remains accessible either way.
