  • 1. Bar200

    $$ | Con Son

    More of a café than a bar, this tiny place makes fantastic sandwiches, salads, and pizzas, making their own pizza dough, sandwich bread, and burger buns in house. The interior is simple, yet welcoming, with wooden blinds, rattan tables and chairs, and photos and propaganda art on the walls. The tiny veranda is a great spot from which to watch Con Son daily life. In high season, it's worth calling first to make sure you get a table.

  • 2. Thu Ba

    $$ | Con Son

    A visit to Con Son isn't complete without a meal at Thu Ba. Chef Thu Ba works her magic in the kitchen while her daughter Thuy works the guests in the homey front section, recommending dishes from the extensive menu full of Vietnamese seafood, pork, and beef dishes (the slipper lobster is highly recommended). Western and Vietnamese options are available for breakfast and Thu Ba can also prepare picnics for hikers and campers.

  • 4. Don Quijote

    $$

    With superb European fusion dining in a rustic atmosphere, Don Quijote is the place for homemade pâté, foie gras, and Toulouse sausages, duck magret, and decadent desserts. The well-considered wine list complements the menu, and if you'd like to kick off a big night, try the meter of rum.

The breakfast menu offers an extensive range of international breakfasts including the full English. There are regular barbecue nights and Vietnamese street food nights.

  • 6. Kozac

    $$

    The interior is a bit worn around the edges, but this Ukrainian restaurant—Vietnam does have a knack for the unexpected—serves some tasty Eastern European, Western, and Asian dishes, along with Russian, Vietnamese, and imported beers. If you need a break from Vietnamese food, this will hit the spot. Expect lackluster service and you won't be disappointed.

  • 7. Lucy's Sports Bar

    $$

    Great-tasting Western food with generous portions is served in a friendly sports bar, with giant screens showing all kinds of sports as well as a pool table. If you're not a sports fan, come for the food and the sea views from the balcony. The salads and the full English breakfast are highly recommended.

  • 8. Tri Ky

    $$ | Con Son

    A spartan open-air local joint that's been the go-to place for domestic tourists to Con Dao for years, Tri Ky is worth a visit if you love fresh well-cooked seafood. The specialty is oc ban tay (hand snail); try it stir-fried with garlic—it tastes a lot better than it sounds!
