The Story

About This Place

Today With You occupies a compact space on Thao Dien's main strip, and the first thing visitors notice is its Korean-influenced interior — deliberate, considered, a design language that doesn't announce itself as Italian until the food arrives. That contrast is part of the draw, and it's earned a 4.9 rating across more than four thousand Google reviews, which is an unusual signal even by the neighborhood's competitive standards.

The kitchen's reputation is built on sauces. Creamy preparations dominate the feedback: a seafood risotto that arrives rich without tipping into heaviness, a pesto shrimp pasta that draws repeat mentions from regulars, a beef ragu with a depth that holds up over the full portion. Bruschettas — particularly the caprese — function as a confident opening act, with mozzarella quality that reviewers single out specifically. The pesto, described as nutty rather than sharp, reads as house-made.

The 300,000 VND lunch set is where the kitchen extends its value proposition: pasta or risotto, panna cotta, detox water, pickles, and fruit salad. It runs during the 11AM–3PM service daily and works as a complete meal for one or a shareable spread for two with an added starter. Portions throughout the menu are noted as generous.

Seating is limited, which defines who the room works for. Large groups don't sit comfortably here — the space suits couples and parties of two or three who can take their time without managing logistics. Service has a reputation for attentiveness that extends beyond the table: delivery drivers waiting for orders are offered water, a detail that appears in multiple reviews as a marker of the kitchen's general character.

Drink options include kombucha, fresh juices, and coconut — a short list that fits the unhurried pace the restaurant sustains across both its lunch and dinner services.

had such a great experience here! the restaurant has a warm, cozy atmosphere with lots of natural light, making it a really relaxing place to enjoy a meal. the dishes were beautifully presented, the portions were generous, and everything we tried was delicious. my favorites were the clams pasta and the shrimp pesto pizza—both were so flavorful. the staff was also friendly and welcoming. definitely recommend making a reservation since it can get busy!

I stumbled upon a pizza place that really impressed me with its service and the delicious, perfectly suited to my taste. The decor was beautiful, and the portions were generous. I'll make a point of visiting again. A great place to go.

I was really excited to try this place because of all the positive reviews, but unfortunately, it turned out to be a big disappointment. We waited about 25–30 minutes for the food, which already made the experience frustrating. To make matters worse, the timing was very off throughout the meal. We ordered: Bruschetta – This arrived after our main dishes, even though it’s supposed to be an appetizer, and took about 25–30 minutes. It was just three small pieces of bread with very little tomato topping. The bread was too thick for the amount of topping, making it very unbalanced. Overall, it did not taste good. (2.5/5) Caprese Salad – This came out quickly, but it was overloaded with pesto to the point that it completely overpowered the dish. All you could taste was pesto, and not a particularly good one. It felt more focused on presentation than flavor. I would not recommend this. (0/5) Chicken Rosé Pasta – Nothing special, but not bad either. Not something I would come back for. The chicken, however, was very bland and lacked proper seasoning even with the sauce. (3.5/5) Beef Ragu Pasta – I had high expectations for this, but it was the most disappointing dish. The meat was very chewy and full of tendons, making it difficult to eat. For a pasta priced at 420k, I expected a much better cut of meat. The pasta itself was average at best—there are definitely better ragu options in Thao Dien. (0/5) Margherita Pizza – Decent, but nothing memorable. It could use more sauce. (3.5/5) For both the caprese salad and the beef ragu pasta, we only had a few bites and left around 80% of each dish untouched. When the plates were cleared, there was little to no effort from the staff to understand why. One server didn’t ask at all when clearing the caprese salad, but they did ask about the beef ragu pasta. When we did give feedback on the beef ragu pasta, the response was simply “ok,” which came across as dismissive. Overall, both the food and service were underwhelming. I’m honestly surprised by the number of positive reviews, as this was not a good experience for us. I would not recommend it.

Relax atmosphere. attentive and polite staff. Great location. The pastas were good, although I thought the mushroom pasta had an intense truffle smell. Its easy to liked it, but I found the sauce artificial...that seems a pre-made sauce. But overall, the pizzas and pastas were acceptable. .. we could say it's a generic version of Pizza4P's but with fewer options and more expensive.

Ordered the lunch special. (Basically addition of salad/desert and price difference for extra). Ambiance was nice and cozy although like many establishment here in Ho Chi Minh, lacked upkeep such as seeing the wallpaper peeling off near the top and being a bit dusty. Entrance through the front semi swivel glass door was quite unique and something to remember. Food wasn’t bad at all. A bit pricier than other establishment but located somewhere where disposable income is easier to dispose. Great place to try if you want to change your usual Vietnamese palate.
