Hungry in Hanoi and unsure where to start? These ten MICHELIN Guide addresses cover quick noodle meals, rice rolls and slower shared dinners. Choose one that fits your day rather than crossing the city to collect restaurant names. Tầm Vị holds one MICHELIN Star; the other nine have Bib Gourmands.
Checked September 24, 2026 against the 2026 MICHELIN Guide selection. This is our editorial Top 10, not a Michelin ranking or a firsthand dining review. A Bib Gourmand recognises good-value cooking; it is not a Michelin Star. Confirm opening times, menus and reservations directly before visiting.

1. Tầm Vị
One MICHELIN Star | 4B Yen The Street, Hanoi.
Choose Tầm Vị for a slower northern Vietnamese meal in a courtyard setting. Its home-style cooking makes more sense as a table of shared dishes than a single plate. Ask about the crab soup and snail ham, then balance the order with vegetables and rice. Reserve ahead.

2. Bún Chả Chan
Bib Gourmand | 114 Mai Hac De Street, Hanoi.
Grilled pork, rice noodles and herbs make this a straightforward introduction to bún chả. Start with the basic pork order before adding spring rolls; it is easy to order too much when everything sounds appealing. Check the day’s opening time before making a special journey.

3. Bánh Cuốn Gia Truyền Thanh Vân
Bib Gourmand | 14 Hang Ga Street, Hanoi.
These freshly steamed rice rolls suit a smaller meal between Old Quarter stops. Michelin lists pork, shrimp and chicken fillings, so say which one you want rather than simply pointing at bánh cuốn. This Hang Ga branch joined the Bib Gourmand selection in 2026.

4. Phở Gà Nguyệt
Bib Gourmand | 5B Phu Doan Street, Hanoi.
Come here for chicken phở rather than beef. Choose your preferred chicken cut and whether you want soup or the dry noodle version. That small ordering decision changes the meal considerably. It is a useful stop when you want to compare Hanoi’s chicken noodles with beef phở elsewhere.

5. Phở Hà Hàng Hòm
Bib Gourmand | 15P Hang Hom Street, Hanoi.
Chicken phở and chicken sticky rice give you two quite different breakfast choices at this 2026 Bib Gourmand newcomer. Ask what toppings remain before ordering, particularly if you want eggs or gizzards. Choose noodles for a broth-based meal or sticky rice when you prefer something compact.

6. Miến Lươn Đông Thịnh
Bib Gourmand | 87 Hang Dieu Street, Hanoi.
Eel noodles offer a change from the usual phở circuit. The menu includes soup and tossed versions, with fried shredded eel adding texture. Decide whether you want broth first, then ask about toppings. Peanuts and fried shallots feature in Michelin’s description, useful information if you need to clarify ingredients.

7. The East
Bib Gourmand | 5B Tong Duy Tan Street, Hanoi.
The East is a sit-down option for northern Vietnamese cooking in a two-storey house. Crab spring rolls and bún chả are sensible dishes to discuss when ordering. For two people, start with one shared starter and a main each instead of building a large order immediately.

8. Mammom
Bib Gourmand | 23 Phan Dinh Phung Street, Hanoi.
Mammom brings home-style dishes from several Vietnamese regions to one menu. The clam broth with tomato and pineapple is a useful starting point for a shared meal. Add rice, a vegetable dish and one main, then check portions with staff. It received a Bib Gourmand in 2026.

9. 1946 Cua Bac
Bib Gourmand | 3 Yen Thanh Alley, 61 Cua Bac Street, Hanoi.
Save this alley address carefully: the entrance is less obvious than a main-street storefront. Banana blossom and beef salad or a shared hotpot give the meal a different rhythm from a noodle-shop lunch. Book ahead and ask how many people a hotpot serves before adding other dishes.

10. Mr Bảy Miền Tây
Bib Gourmand | 79 Hang Dieu Street, Hanoi.
This is a chance to try southern-style cooking while staying in Hanoi. Bánh xèo comes with the pleasure of building your own rice-paper and herb wraps. Share a pancake first, ask how to assemble a bite, and add another dish only if the table still wants more.
