Review

With its lineup of Vietnamese cover bands playing mainly Western music, Acoustic Cafe packs the young Saigonese and a handful of foreigners in every night. Don’t expect to score a seat unless you arrive early. There are some fantastic local singers and musicians performing even if the set has some serious high and low points. Great fun. Great atmosphere. About 10 minutes from downtown by cab down an alley.
