1. Nha Trang Moc Restaurant Reservation Method & Location
📍 Location: Located in Nha Trang city center / 15-minute walk from the beach,
9-minute drive from Dam Market
⏰ Operating Hours: 10:30 - 22:30
☑️ Closed: Open year-round
✔️ Group reservations available
Nha Trang Moc Restaurant, which I visited this time, is
a famous Nha Trang restaurant with a 4.9-star rating on Google Maps and over 16,000 reviews.
It became even more famous after being featured in the Michelin Guide in 2025.
Therefore, waiting is essential, so you must make a reservation before visiting.
Actually, I planned to have lunch on a weekday afternoon,
so I visited without a reservation.
However, the cool, air-conditioned indoor seating on the second floor was fully booked,
so I ended up eating outside in the heat...!
There's no waiting for outdoor seating :)
Don't suffer like I did; make sure to reserve a table at Moc Restaurant before you go.

2. Nha Trang Michelin-starred Moc Restaurant Menu Recommendations & Prices
The exact name of Moc Restaurant is
Da Nang Moc Seafood Restaurant, Nha Trang Branch.
In fact, it became popular in Da Nang first,
which led to them opening a branch in Nha Trang.
You can enjoy a variety of seafood here,
and above all, the prices are reasonable, which is why many Korean tourists
are flocking to it.
It's great for visiting with parents,
and I actually visited the Da Nang branch with my kids and parents.
I, too, sought out the Nha Trang branch after tasting how delicious it was in Da Nang.
The menu is truly diverse.

Menu | Vietnamese Dong VND |
Shrimp (100g) (Minimum order 300g) | 69,000 VND |

✅ When ordering a large-sized crayfish
you can choose two flavors, 'half and half'.
<Crayfish & Lobster Dish Flavors>
Garlic Butter Sauce / Sweet and Sour Sauce / Stir-fried Garlic / Grilled Cheese / Black Pepper Sauce / Chili Sauce
Aside from regular dishes, seafood prices vary depending on the weight (in grams),
and for lobster and crayfish, you can even see them live before you order.
Since we came all the way to Vietnam, we decided to go big and ordered a large-sized crayfish.
For two people, one large crayfish isn't too much, so you can easily enjoy it with other dishes.
Additionally, you can choose from six different sauces,
and since they said we could pick two, we went with cheese and garlic butter.
The garlic butter here is absolutely amazing! :)
They also have a really wide selection of alcoholic beverages.
Soju, in particular, is available, and many Korean visitors seem to enjoy it here.
Soju paired with affordable seafood – what a combo!
If you like soju, I highly recommend trying it with your meal.
A bottle of Soju was around ~$3!
3. Nha Trang Must-Try Restaurant: My Honest Review (Paid by Me!)
They help you pick out the perfect size crayfish,
ours was about 800g.
Once you choose the type, they'll pick out the right size and kind for you,
and even show you the exact weight.
Our regular dishes arrived about 10 minutes after ordering.
First up were the clam porridge, razor clam morning glory, and garlic butter shrimp!
Shrimp had a minimum order of 300 grams, so that's what we got,
and it seemed to come with about 8-9 pieces.
Honestly, I ordered the clam porridge thinking of the rich, thick clam porridge I had in Da Nang,
but it wasn't as rich and was just a decent, plain porridge,
so you probably don't need to order it.
But definitely order the Razor Clam Morning Glory! :)
It's a savory stir-fried morning glory packed with large razor clams,
making it perfect as a side dish.
You can think of it as similar to Korean stir-fried spinach.
As for the crayfish, it seemed to take about 15-20 minutes to arrive. :)
Since dishes like shrimp and crayfish can be a bit tricky to eat,
they'll even prepare and clean them for you after you've taken your photos.
When you order a large size, you can choose two different flavors (half and half),
which is absolutely fantastic!
The grilled cheese was savory and delicious,
while the garlic butter sauce had that perfect sweet-and-salty balance that made you want to keep eating it.
But the absolute best way to enjoy it is with fried rice and this incredible sauce!
The sauce really clung to the fluffy egg fried rice,
giving it a rich umami flavor.
I enjoyed it in Da Nang too,
but there's definitely a reason why Mộc Restaurant in Nha Trang is so popular.
If you're looking for a great restaurant in Nha Trang,
I highly recommend Mộc Restaurant!
Oh! There was one slight downside too.
The outdoor seating on the first floor had a ceiling, but it was still quite hot since it's open-air.
So, make sure to make a reservation before you go! 😭
