Asure sign of a good restaurant, unknowing diners can easily follow the Japanese businessmen, families and tour groups that throng to Ohan on bustling Pasteur Street in downtown Ho Chi Minh City. Elegant and muted teal toned walls contrast beautifully with black tables and gorgeous glazed dishware, creating a calm and inviting atmosphere. A beautifully constructed venue, it remains the food that keeps diners coming back time and again. In a city overrun with sushi, the taste and presentation at Ohan stand out.
A great location for business lunches, Ohan provides set menus and bento boxes for people on the go. Or come for dinner and order from an extensive menu of fresh sashimi, elegant sushi rolls, and more. All served with nose-clearing wasabe and delicious pickled ginger, try the shabu shabu and sukiyaki hotpots, the okonomiyaki (Japanese pancakes), or the perfectly fried tonkatsu (breaded pork cutlets).
A favorite amongst Japanese visitors, however, remains the tantanmen, a warm, salty, savoury soup of yellow noodles and pork in a spicy broth carefully executed from the city’s best recipe of owner Ms. Khanh. While she’s Vietnamese, owner Ms. Khanh’s experience and attention to detail make her the best judge of sushi in the city. All ingredients are purchased with care, and every detail is well-thought out, down to the leaf stamped into your wasabe. Orders arrive promptly, glasses are filled regularly, and the staff can help determine which dish perfectly suits your taste. Lucky for those in Phu My Hung, the popularity of the first Ohan recently saw the opening of a second in District 7, and a third is on the way. Whether is tuna, fried eel, edemame or miso soup, Ohan is the eatery to visit for traditional Japanese cuisine in a delightful atmosphere.
