About
Banh Xeo Saigon Toranomon (バインセオサイゴン 虎ノ門店) opened on November 4, 2025, on the 1st floor of TORANOMON MARCHÉ inside Toranomon Alcea Tower (虎ノ門アルセアタワー) at 2-2-3 Toranomon, Minato City, near Toranomon Station (虎ノ門駅) on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line and Toranomon Hills Station (虎ノ門ヒルズ駅) on the Hibiya Line. As the third shop in a chain that already runs locations in Shinjuku and Tokyo Dome City, it puts "banh xeo (バインセオ)", a famous dish from southern Vietnam, in the spotlight. The yellow pancake, made with rice flour and turmeric, is crisp on the outside and soft on the inside, offering southern Vietnamese cuisine with two contrasting textures.
— A golden Vietnamese pancake of rice flour and turmeric
The signature dish is "banh xeo (バインセオ / Banh Xeo)", a famous dish from southern Vietnam. A batter made with rice flour, water, coconut milk, and turmeric is thinly cooked in a frying pan to make a Vietnamese-style crepe. Two textures are enjoyed in a single dish: a bright yellow color from the turmeric, a crisp outer edge, and a soft, chewy center. The fillings include pork, shrimp, bean sprouts, and aromatic herbs. The traditional way to eat it is to wrap a piece in lettuce and herbs and dip it in "nuoc cham (ニョクチャム)", a traditional Vietnamese fish-sauce-based dipping sauce. The shop also offers many southern Vietnamese home-style dishes such as pho, bun cha, and fresh spring rolls. Inside TORANOMON MARCHÉ in central Tokyo, it serves weekday office workers and visitors around Toranomon Hills (虎ノ門ヒルズ). Hours are 11:30 to 22:00 (last order 21:30).
