We're on a mission to help food lovers discover the most authentic and delicious dining experiences Vietnam has to offer, one bite at a time.
Traveling through Vietnam, Thailand and Malaysia I often struggled to find authentic food spots. I had to dig through YouTube vlogs, scattered blog posts and Google Maps reviews – which was time-consuming and often unreliable.
“With Nibsy, I want to make it easy for food lovers and expats to share real recommendations — the hidden gems, the must-try dishes, and yes, even the honest negative reviews when something didn’t live up to the hype.”
— Founder of Nibsy
Nibsy was born from a simple frustration: despite Vietnam's incredible culinary scene, finding truly authentic, local dining experiences remained surprisingly difficult for both visitors and locals alike. Language barriers often made it even harder to discover hidden gems or understand reviews, turning what should be an exciting food adventure into a challenge.
Traditional review platforms often missed the mark when it came to Vietnamese cuisine, focusing on tourist spots while overlooking hidden gems that locals cherished.
"Where do locals actually eat? How do I find authentic pho, not tourist pho?"
"Finally, a platform that gets Vietnamese food!"
We created Nibsy to bridge this gap—a platform built specifically for Vietnam's unique culinary landscape, where local knowledge meets modern technology.
To democratize food discovery in Vietnam by creating a platform where authentic local knowledge is valued, shared, and accessible to everyone—from curious travelers to lifelong residents.
To become the most trusted source for authentic dining experiences across Southeast Asia, celebrating local food culture and supporting small, independent restaurants.
