A great Vietnamese place on Canal. The pho was exceptional and they have amazing specials (like mirlitons). You will definitely find something great to eat here. Service was exceptional and lunch was quick and so good! Don't miss out on this great place.

Good food and a relaxed environment. Lots of great options on the menu. I went with the seafood spring roles then the stir fried shrimp. Both were tasty and had some good flavors, but I’d hoped for a bit more spice or zest. The service was immaculate though, so may come back just for that

Met the owner and the New Orleans photographer whose featured photos of our historic trees are framed to the walls.

Our friend was visiting from out of town so we chose Cafe Minh for its unique menu. I had the diver scallop stir-fry. It was delicious! My husband had the veal chop. It was incredibly tender and with the sides, it was amazing! Our friend had the shrimp pasta with curry sauce. He said it was out of this world. To accompany the food was a vast wine selection. What made the experience even better was the cute venue and our fantastic waiter, Josh! Chef Cynthia even came to our table and greeted us. Overall, we couldn’t have asked for a better dining experience!

First time visiting Cafe Minh and after reading all the history and accolades on the wall, I felt a little embarrassed that this was my first visit. Food absolutely top tier, our waiter Josh knowledgeable and witty, atmosphere perfectly soothing. We will be back!

What a wonderful dining experience. Who would’ve thought Vietnamese with French flare? 🤷🏻‍♂️ Started off with the Crabtini, followed by Seafood spring rolls, Crawfish cake with corn maux choux. The mains glaze chicken stirfry and Sea scallops & Japanese eggplant with an Asian chili sauce. For dessert the banana crème brûlée is to die for! If you haven’t dined at Cafe Minh…..What are you waiting for?

Everything here is amazing. Food/beverages. Location. Service. If you don't have the courage to let your server know something isn't up to par, that's on you. Go to 5 Guys and leave this place to the rest of us who know exceptional food/service.

Wonderful, diverse menu and a very pleasant atmosphere. It is New Orleans food American bistro food with a slightly Asian flair as well as some Vietnamese dishes. Always pleasant staff and sometimes the music is pleasant. Fun and not intrusive. I highly recommend café Minh

We had heard how good Cafe Minh was, but had never been until last night. We arrived around 5:30 without a reservation, but were still promptly and congenially seated. Our primary server was Andy, who was knowledgeable, consistent, and had plenty of assistance as needed. This was a pro wait staff without pretense. There are two wine lists, one by the bottle the other by the glass, and we were satisfied with the bar's chardonnay and pinot Grigio selections. Every dish we ordered came with its own distinctive sauce or flavor. We sampled the pumpkin puree, which is not your grandma's pumpkin soup. We shared the perfectly fried calamari with a sweet side sauce, rather than the marina to which many of us are used. We shared an exceptional steamed mussels, where the sauce was enhanced by the fresh spices and fresh vegetables. Minh provides a whole small loaf of fresh bread for dipping as well. my wife also ordered the perfectly prepared spring rolls. The entrees were a bouillabaisse that my son thought "best ever", a whole flash fried spelled trout, and a marvelous pompano with grilled shrimp. My son allowed us a small sample of the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake. It was an exceptional meal, perfectly timed, and wonderfully served.
