Paper Lantern is a restaurant that offers a lively atmosphere with loud music and a good vibe, creating a cozy setting perfect for unwinding. The drink menu is extensive and innovative, featuring unique options like the Midori Garden and the Out of Office cocktails. The Morning in Hanoi cocktail remains a popular choice, resembling a Vietnamese coffee espresso martini. The Plum God cocktail has also received praise for its tartness, while the Pandan Painkiller puts customers in a tiki mood with its tropical flavors.
The food menu includes simple and delicious options like pork belly skewers, marinated beef skewers, and pineapple fried rice piled with shrimp and pork belly. The Beef Carpaccio stands out for its tangy-sweet sauce paired beautifully with tender, juicy slices of raw beef. The banh mi and Bành Xèo are also recommended. The service is friendly and attentive, although it may be slow at times.
The price point is lower than other similar restaurants, making Paper Lantern a great value. The atmosphere and vibe of the restaurant are enjoyable, making it a great spot for a night out. Reservations are recommended, especially on busy evenings. Overall, this restaurant is an excellent choice for anyone looking to enjoy flavorful drinks, delightful food, and an inviting ambiance.
