Where to eat special food in Sapa Town?

There are some restaurants offering both Vietnamese food and some non-Vietnamese dishes. Mid Range hotels usually boast about offering at least some "Western" dishes, and smaller hotels and guesthouses will normally be able to offer at least something non-Vietnamese. However, don't expect it to be "just like Grandma used to make".

We have collected this list of restaurants and eateries in Sa Pa to give you a place to start. However, please keep in mind that some of the heartiest, tastiest and most nutritious food in Sa Pa and all of Vietnam is served from nameless roadside stalls that appear around 17:00 and disappear about midnight. Try it, you might like it!
