Why it matters
Why Vuon Tao Restaurant is worth your time

Its location near Duong Dong and the airport makes it practical on arrival or departure days. Since the source is a 2021 article with conflicting hours, confirm that it is open and what it charges before planning a meal around it.

How to experience it
Vietnam Discovery lists specialities including herring salad (goi ca trich), steamed shrimp in coconut juice, raw barracuda salad and fried silver snapper. Order a few to share, and ask about weight and price for fish before it is cooked.
The restaurant has a landscaped garden and room for about 80 diners, and the article says it suits families, groups and tour buses. That makes it easier for a multigenerational party to sit together than at a small stall.
The article gives two different sets of opening hours, so call ahead. It is a seafood restaurant, so vegetarians and Jain travellers should eat elsewhere. Details date from 2021.
