TL;DR
Kochevnik restaurant in Nha Trang is praised for manti dumplings, plov, and homestyle chicken soup. Food quality at Pax Ana varies by time of day — dinner tends to be better than lunch.
Kochevnik restaurant serves simple but tasty Central Asian food — standouts are manti dumplings, plov (rice pilaf), and homestyle chicken soup. Lamb cooked in a cast iron pan is also highly rated but may not always be available.
The day pass meal option at Pax Ana is decent but inconsistent — quality depends on the chef and time of day, with dinner generally better than lunch. If food isn't a priority, consider just renting a sunbed and eating at a nearby cafe instead.
Food at Pax Ana can vary noticeably between lunch and dinner sittings, likely due to different kitchen staff on shift.
