TinTin Seafood and the Journey of Becoming Hoa Tửu Quán

For many years in Da Nang, TinTin Seafood has been a familiar name among diners who love fresh seafood and carefully prepared meals.
When people mention TinTin Seafood, they often think of a well-structured seafood restaurant with professional service, a formal dining space, and thoughtfully cooked dishes—well suited for tourists and business gatherings.

However, as the market evolved and local dining habits changed, we realized one important thing:
not everyone is looking for the traditional restaurant model that TinTin Seafood once represented.

Many customers wanted a more relaxed atmosphere, more accessible pricing, while still maintaining the seafood quality and culinary standards that built the reputation of TinTin Seafood.

From that realization, Hoa Tửu Quán was born.

From TinTin Seafood to Hoa Tửu Quán – Preserving the Essence, Changing the Approach

Hoa Tửu Quán is not a completely separate brand, but a refined and adjusted version of TinTin Seafood.

We continue to preserve the core values that defined TinTin Seafood, including:

• Careful selection of live, fresh seafood

• Years of experience in preparing signature seafood dishes

• A kitchen philosophy that always puts quality first

The key difference is that Hoa Tửu Quán focuses more on local diners and everyday meals, rather than the formal restaurant model previously associated with TinTin Seafood.

Open Space – Simpler and More Approachable

Compared to the structured restaurant-style space of TinTin Seafood, Hoa Tửu Quán is designed with:

• An open, airy, and well-ventilated layout

• Simple seating suitable for groups, families, and friends

• A cozy, familiar atmosphere—like a neighborhood seafood spot

This change allows diners to enjoy their meals more comfortably, without formal pressure, aligning with the local seafood dining culture.

Market-Priced Seafood – A New Model Compared to TinTin Seafood

One of the biggest changes from TinTin Seafood is the pricing and selling model at Hoa Tửu Quán:

• Seafood is sold at transparent market prices, clearly displayed at the tanks

• Guests personally choose their live seafood

• Only a cooking fee is charged, ranging from 50,000 – 100,000 VND per dish

This approach helps:

• Make prices significantly more accessible than the former TinTin Seafood model

• Allow customers to control their budget with full transparency from the start

• Better serve local diners, large groups, and repeat customers

Simplified Service Process, Without Losing Support

While TinTin Seafood followed a full-service restaurant process, Hoa Tửu Quán has:

• Streamlined unnecessary steps

• Created a more natural and relaxed dining experience

That said, our staff is always ready to assist when needed, including:

• Peeling shrimp, crab, and blue swimmer crab

• Guiding guests on how to eat, wrap, and dip for the best flavor

• Recommending dishes based on taste preferences, group size, and budget

We believe great service is not about complexity, but about offering the right support at the right moment.

Hoa Tửu Quán – The Next Step from TinTin Seafood

The transition from TinTin Seafood to Hoa Tửu Quán is a deliberate move:

• To be closer to local customers

• To preserve the culinary essence of TinTin Seafood in a more flexible model

• To deliver a dining experience that is delicious, transparent, comfortable, and budget-friendly

Despite changes in name, space, and business model, we remain true to the spirit that built TinTin Seafood:
serving seafood with integrity and respecting every customer’s dining experience.
