Chao Ban was the best restaurant we went to in Hanoi and it wasn’t really close. The service was excellent and every bite of food was great. This restaurant is a must when you’re in Hanoi. Our order: crab fried rolls, banana flower salad w/ chicken, green papaya salad w/ beef jerky, caramelized fish, grilled pork, pork ribs (so good), eggplant and tofu.
