TL;DR
For frozen steaks and more consistent quality, travelers usually shop at big supermarkets like Lotte Mart and GO!; for fresh meat and fish, early-morning markets such as Xóm Mới and Vĩnh Hải are the usual choice. For seafood, head to the Vĩnh Trường fishing-port area, where you can buy fresh catch and often have it cooked nearby; 19L drinking water delivery is commonly available from LaVie or Vĩnh Hảo for about 55,000–75,000 VND.
If you specifically need frozen steaks, the most reliable option is usually large supermarkets with imported frozen goods, such as Lotte Mart Nha Trang Gold Coast and GO! Nha Trang. They typically stock vacuum-packed beef steaks and chilled meat, with imported beef often starting around 250,000–450,000 VND per pack depending on cut and weight.
For seafood, people usually go to the Vĩnh Trường area near the fishing port, where fresh catch is easiest to find in the morning. In that area, it is often possible to ask nearby vendors or eateries to grill or steam shrimp, squid, or fish for an extra cooking fee charged separately from the seafood itself.
For fresh meat and fish, morning markets are usually the better choice, especially Xóm Mới Market in the center and Vĩnh Hải Market in the northern part of the city. Selection is best early in the morning; by around 10–11 a.m., the choice is often much more limited.
For 19L drinking water delivery, a common solution is to order widely available brands like LaVie or Vĩnh Hảo through nearby minimarts or local delivery services. A typical price is about 55,000–75,000 VND per bottle, and there may be a refundable bottle deposit of roughly 50,000–100,000 VND.
