For those on a budget, Sâu Nướng is where you can get the most bang for your, eh, VND. That said, the restaurant certainly doesn’t feel low-budget with its bright, clean, and spacious setting.
And for as little as VND159,000 (~USD6.79) for lunch and VND179,000 (~USD7.64) for dinner, you get an all-you-can-eat buffet of either barbecue or hotpot. Remember, either barbecue or hotpot, not both.

The meat options are, naturally, aren’t outstandingly diverse, but you’ll still be able to order 10 types of meat such as pork belly, short plate beef, and chicken wings. Add another VND19,000 (~USD0.81) to that standard price, and you can enjoy some additional seafood options such as prawns, oysters, and octopi.

Quán Nướng Chú Bi is one of our go-to BBQ restaurants in Da Nang, and it has a lot to do with the friendly, attentive staff who will make you feel right at home in the casual but clean and airy space.
The standard barbecue (VND219,000, ~USD9.35) menu already comes with plenty of meat on offer, including the signature beef short ribs in apple sauce, and our favorite octopus tentacles marinated with green chili.

A massive building occupying an entire street corner, with the beach just a few minutes away, Tokyo BBQ Town is always packed full of customers, and for good reason. Just a heads-up before we continue, there’s no buffet option here. You order whatever you want, and pay for what you eat.

And when we say whatever you want, it’s not too much of an exaggeration. The restaurant has a massive menu including both barbecue and hotpot. Aside from the usual beef, pork, and chicken, there are also less common meat options such as ostrich and crocodile.

Another popular name among meat lovers in Đà Nẵng is Veteran Restaurant, praised by many diners for its authentic Korean barbecue experience.
The price is admittedly quite high compared to local standards. A 180g serving of rib eye prime or chuck flap tail prime goes for a whopping VND950,000 (~USD40.49), but rest assured that it’s more than worth your while.

The meat isn’t highly marinated, but that means you can focus on the quality of the cut itself, which is always fresh, tender, and juicy. Other more affordable options include a 600g shared seafood set or pork set (VND700,000, ~USD29.83).

As is quite common for hotpot restaurants, the pots are split into either 2 or 4 different trays for you to enjoy different hotpot flavors. As Mudan places a strong emphasis on Chinese food, the Sichuan flavor is highly recommended, though other options such as Kimchi or Tomyum are also well-loved. There are also non-chili options such as cheese hotpot or mushroom hotpot.

In terms of meat to dip in your hotpot, aside from the usual beef and pork, try having pigeon (VND109,000, ~USD4.65) or duck tongue (VND129,000, ~USD5.50) for a change.
