Muối Tiêu - Salt n' Pepper Kitchen - Restaurant in Hanoi

Food was great and reasonable pricing. Staff was also friendly. But there was just 1 problem.... They were playing cartoons projected onto the wall. It was quite out of place for western brunch restaurant. I asked them to turn it off, but that wasn't allowed. They did change it to "Amazingly beautiful Alaska in 4k" for a while, but after that it was back to the cartoons. Overall I definitely recommend this place, but please guys, turn off the beamer. It degrades your nice restaurant.

Easily one of my favorite breakfasts I’ve had on my Asia trip. The food felt like someone took a really good American-style brunch and actually executed it tot the T, instead of just copying the menu. I got the pesto chicken croissant with soft scrambled eggs and cheddar, and it was outstanding. The croissant was flaky and buttery, the eggs were genuinely cooked perfect, and the chicken was juicy with just enough pesto without overpowering everything. I also ordered a bacon, hash brown, and cream cheese bagel, sounds like an odd combo but believe me it is the truth. The cream cheese was a light herb cream cheese, which I typically am not a fan of anything but plain, but it complemented everything without taking over. The biggest surprise was the bacon—it was actually crispy. After weeks of traveling, this was the first place where the bacon tasted like proper bacon instead of being limp or overly chewy. The mango passion fruit kombucha was refreshing, the coffee was solid, and everything came out looking just as good as it tasted. The café itself has a relaxed atmosphere with beautiful windows overlooking the street. It’s comfortable enough to hang out for a while, whether you’re grabbing coffee or a full brunch. Prices are very reasonable for the quality. I honestly ordered way more food than I needed (didn’t even get around to the avocado, mushrooms, or sausage), but nothing I actually ate disappointed. If you’re craving a proper brunch in Hanoi, this place is absolutely worth the stop.

Kind of a tourist spot, would recommend a reservation or wait time would be around 20 to 30 minutes. Quick and attentive service. Food is well seasoned and fulfilling. Decoration kinda lacks in concept.

The restaurant has a compact interior and experiences high foot traffic, which can lead to significant wait times for a table. Service is relatively slow during peak periods. ​In terms of the dishes, the flavor profiles are generally standard. The Eggs Benedict is a notable exception, skillfully prepared with a precise consistency. However, the grilled shrimp was quite dry and lacked a distinct flavor profile, while the smoked salmon had a very high salt content. Additionally, the sauces across the different dishes did not significantly enhance the main ingredients, resulting in a somewhat disjointed taste experience.

Stumbled across this restaurant and was delighted to find really excellent food, especially bruch, being served. For a quick lunch I had two wagu sliders which were delicious. My wife had eggs Benedict on sourdough bread and it was very good indeed. Having enjoyed the great food, especially brunches, that Melbourne can deliver, this restaurant was on par with the best there. Highly recommend.
