Devil’s Diner is about a mysterious diner in which desperate patrons can go and strike a deal with the host, who makes them delicious meals and grants them their deepest wishes… but for a price.
The official synopsis reads: “Wealth. Revenge. Freedom. A mysterious chef offers dishes that can grant his clients’ their deepest desires. The question is: What will is cost them?”
There are only six episodes in total, with the titles hinting at the deadly stories within:
- Greed: Blood Pudding

- Delusion: Candied Gooseberries
- Suspicion: Heart Porridge

“Devil’s Diner is a deeply personal and ambitious project for me,” Tran said of the series. “Through this series, we’re not only telling uniquely Vietnamese stories but also universal tales of human longing and the choices we make when faced with impossible dilemmas.”
Devil’s Diner stars Lê Quốc Nam, Nguyễn Kiều Trinh, Võ Điền Gia Huy and Lan Thy.
