The cocktails are well-balanced in terms of sweetness and sourness, the food is delicious, and the atmosphere is perfect for conversation.

It has a nice atmosphere, one of the best rooftops in Ho Chi Minh City for its night view and value for money, and the service is perfect. You can pay by visa or master card, and it is highly recommended if you want to have a drink in a comfortable atmosphere.

I went to a show, but the venue was too small. There were tables on the second floor, and if you didn't get a table, your view would be blocked. A bottle of regular beer cost 100k, which I thought was ridiculously expensive. The sound system was off; it was extremely jarring. Luckily, the show itself was good.
