A dinosaur skeleton hangs above the bar, which sets the tone pretty efficiently. The Haflington is a two-floor cocktail bar in the Old Quarter styled after the great natural history museums of Europe, all soft lighting, fossils, and shelves of old books. The menu, called The Jungle Book, runs from obscure classics to house signatures. It landed on Asia's 50 Best Bars list, which tracks with how seriously the cocktails are taken here.

A family that has been rolling bánh cuốn by hand for generations, on a street in Hoan Kiem that smells like it, this is an old-school Hanoi street food spot where the rice rolls come out gossamer-thin and the dipping sauce is a family secret nobody is asking questions about. The bún thang, a Hanoi noodle soup piled with toppings, runs alongside. The Michelin Guide awarded it a Bib Gourmand.

Rank 4. The East
Northern Vietnamese
Bún chả is the signature at this Northern Vietnamese restaurant on one of Hanoi's liveliest dining streets, and the grilled pork arrives the way it should, smoky and served with rice vermicelli in broth. The crab spring rolls and Vietnamese flan round out a menu that stays close to the capital's street food roots. The two-storey shophouse also sells ceramics from local artisans, which is either charming or distracting depending on your appetite. A Michelin Bib Gourmand.

Rank 20. Bamboo Bar
Cocktail Bar
The Graham Greene Martini is a permanent fixture on an otherwise rotating seasonal cocktail list, which tells you something about the crowd the Metropole's poolside thatched-roof bar is playing to. It's a small, polished space, plush armchairs and a few counter seats, with bar snacks that drift between Vietnamese summer rolls and fish and chips without apology. Gin and colonial nostalgia, basically.

Rank 23. Bếp Prime
Vietnamese
A Vietnamese restaurant in a crumbling old building on Hang Dieu Street, Bep Prime pulls from the full breadth of the country's regional cooking with a clear soft spot for Hanoi. The kitchen's signature pigeon and mushroom hot pot arrives in a bird cage, which is exactly as theatrical as it sounds. The Michelin Guide lists it among its selected restaurants. Book ahead; the room is small and the regulars know it.

Rank 23. Le Beaulieu
French
French fine dining inside the Sofitel Legend Metropole, where the crystal chandeliers and blue velvet banquettes have survived every renovation the twentieth century could throw at them. An old-school institution, the kind where lobster bisque arrives from a guéridon and crêpe Suzette is flambéed tableside with a seriousness that feels entirely earned. The tasting menu threads in quiet Vietnamese notes, which keeps things from feeling like a museum piece.
