Tucked away, great vegan noodle soups

It's a bit hard to find this place. It's actually on the right side of the big street, if you're coming from the nearby bridge. Drive slowly and you will see the word Chay and the restaurant's name on a tiny alley corner. The alley is not visible on G Maps.

Great vegan noodle soups of many different varieties, fresh ingredients, nice presentation and a good price.

Pros: 10 different tasty noodle soups, Nicely decorated for a cheap restaurant , Friendly owner

Cons: Tucked away, at the same time this is a good thing

As good as I remembered

I used to live down the street from here about 3 years ago. It is just as good. Love the setting off the street.

A good Vegetarian Noodle Soups

This small restaurant have a good selection of Noodle soups. At lunch time they do offer rice plate but not many choices. Their noodle soup dishes are the best and popular among locals. At night that is what they serve with no rice or other dishes other then the few noodle soups. Friendly owner but English spoken and menu is lacking. Restaurant do offer an outdoor sitting and is just behind an alley on busy Nam Ky Khoi Nghia.

Pros: Good Noodle soups, Proper sitting with in door or outdoor, Friendly owner

Cons: No English menu and spoken.

the best vegan noodle soup in district 3

This is our favorite place for soup. Super friendly staff,cheap and deliciously spicy. Beautiful urban location with a busy street just outside the alley where you sit. Recommended!

Great soup; cheap and cheerful :-)

I am a regular at Dieu Phap Chay, as I live very close by and it's a nice, little spot for no-fuss vegan food, with a friendly English-speaking owner (who has an adorable little son!) and very welcoming and kind staff.

There is an English menu, but it only has the noodle soups listed; there is a Vietnamese menu that has more items, but I cannot understand it so I have only ever tried the soups and don't know what else is on offer. I believe there is a rice dish and 'Banh Hue' amongst a few other things.

Regardless, the menu on the whole is quite small. However, the soups are tasty and comforting, especially on a rainy day washed down with a tra da (iced tea); my favourites are the rice noodle soup with tofu, mushrooms and rice pancake bits on top (although I find it is a bit too heavy on a particular Vietnamese herb that I am not keen on...I am not sure what it is...maybe some type of coriander?) and the vermicelli 'salad' with peanuts, tofu, lettuce, mint, cucumber, carrot and daikon. I'd recommend their fresh spring rolls too...the dipping sauce is delicious.

The soups are very affordable at only 39,000 VND a bowl and portion sizes are very generous, always leaving me full.

I would definitely recommend Dieu Phap Chay for a simple and casual lunch if you're in the area and want a nice bowl of soup :-)

Pros: Cheap, Friendly staff, Good portion sizes

Cons: Not all items listed in English menu
