Private Dining Room in Hanoi for 20 Guests — Maison Vie's Two 20-Seat Rooms
Looking for a private dining room in Hanoi for 20? Maison Vie — a French fine dining restaurant at 28 Tăng Bạt Hổ, Hai Bà Trưng, and a Tripadvisor Travellers' Choice 2026 Winner — has two 20-seat private rooms: a long-table salon set among wine racks, and a round-table room. Set menus from 395,000 VND per guest; open daily 11:00–14:00 and 17:30–22:00.
Twenty guests: the size that defeats most restaurants
Twenty is an awkward number — too large for a corner of the dining room, too small to justify a banquet hall. It is exactly the size of a leadership dinner, a visiting delegation, a milestone birthday or two families meeting before a wedding. Maison Vie keeps two rooms purpose-built for it, each with a different character, and both served course by course by Executive Chef Joel F. Tisserand's kitchen — 40 years across France, England, China and Southeast Asia, cooking French technique on Vietnamese terroir: Nha Trang tuna, Tam Đảo forest mushrooms, Phú Quốc vanilla. Quality is certified, not claimed: reviews from millions of Tripadvisor travellers place Maison Vie in the top 10% worldwide — Travellers' Choice 2026 (the announcement).
The two 20-seat rooms, compared
| Private Room 1 | Room 8 | |
|---|---|---|
| Capacity | 20 guests | 20 guests |
| Floor | 2 | 3 |
| Table layout | One long imperial table | Round tables |
| Character | Wall wine racks in the room; one conversation, one table — suited to formal dinners and toasts | Conversational clusters — suited to team dinners and family gatherings |
Need to flex? One floor below and above the count: Private Room 2 seats 10, and Room 5 on the third floor seats 46 — so a guest list that grows or shrinks never forces a venue change.
