Bao Phradit
It's a bit of a trek south of the centre, but this is a real Isan restaurant with dishes like pàt þètmu/uu Ъàh (spicy stir-fried wild boar) and gaang wăi (rattan curry). It's all served on a peaceful riverside deck. Though the English menu is a bit mysterious (it translates yam, Thai-style tangy salads, as 'review'), it's rare that a restaurant of this sort has any English at all.

Riverside Restaurant
About 200m before Bao Phradit, this popular spot offers great views from a garden terrace and has tanks filled with examples of the kinds of Mekong River fish it has in the kitchen: if you don’t want to eat the fish, it’s almost worth just coming here for a biology lesson. The menu lists the many styles in which the chefs can cook it up for you, plus some nonfish dishes including wild boar. Free wi-fi, too.

A
Goodmook*
This fun place has all the ingredients of a travellers' cafe – a mix of Thai and Western food (from đôm yam to T-bone), free wi-fi, art on the walls – except a room full of travellers, though many of those who do stop in Mukdahan longer than needed to change buses do cosy up here at some point.

Night Market
Mukdahan's night market has all the Thai and Isan classics, but it's the Vietnamese vendors that set it apart. A few sell băhn dah (the vendors will tell you it's 'Vietnamese pizza'), which combines soft noodles, pork, spring onions and an optional egg served on a crispy cracker.

Wine Wild Why?
Housed in an atmospheric wooden building next to the river, this relaxing spot has bags of character and serves delicious Thai and Isan food, though the wine list is history. The sociable owners, transplants from Bangkok, just add to the charm.

Kufad
This simple Vietnamese cafe is rightly popular and a good choice for breakfast. The picture menu takes the guesswork out of ordering, but leaves you clueless on the prices.

Mukdahan Riverside
This long-popular spot offers great views from a garden terrace and a mostly Thai menu (featuring Mekong river fish, of course) that we've never heard a bad word spoken about.
