Text description provided by the architects. Located on a crowded Hai Ba Trung street, Ola Hale Restaurant & Bar has a historical view overlooking Saigon’s signature pink Tan Dinh church. The original building was a Southern Vietnamese modernist architectural house, which was chosen based on the idea of bringing history into the concept of the brand. Being partially covered by the concrete-brick walls, there’s a green front yard that welcomes everyone to the restaurant. Since “‘ohana” means “home” in Hawaiian, we strive to bring this spirit to everyone who enters the restaurant as if they were returning to their home.
