Great Vegan Breakfast Bowls

Had breakfast there twice. The Café offers 6 or 7 Smoothie Bowls that can all optionally be made vegan and some whole grain sandwiches. A bit more expensive than other restaurants around, but worth it. Also the coffee is good and strong.

Pros: Stylish interior, Delicious and filling smoothy bowls

Friendly service

Although vegan options are limited, probably the best choice in Cat Ba. The waiter was very friendly and knowledgeable about vegan food. Went back three times had the pho, pad Thai and vegan burger. All were quite tasty.

Pros: Service, Vegan options labeled, Decent sized portions

Cons: Lots of meat, Popular with the meat eating crowd.

Excellent. Eat here on Cát Bà.

Strolled up and was merrily greeted by several staff, and guided upstairs to the gorgeous green balcony of hanging plants. Excited to see so many options. Ordered veggie burger because others had recommended it.

When server brought veggie burger he said he forgot to mention that it has egg in it (also, I forgot to ask when I ordered). He apologized and replaced it with a vegan burger no problem. Super positive experience.

Two entrees, two cocktails (1 free for happy hour), and an appetizer for about 230k vnd. Bonus: bamboo straws (which they sell, as well)

Pros: Great selection, Great tasting, Great staff and atmosphere

Cons: Errr.. maybe only that they aren’t completely veg

Awesome restaurant with many delicious vegan options

This restaurant is a must-go-to place if you're on Cat Ba. We went there 4 times, our favourites being:
- the burger (f***ing good, just ask without mayo); take sweet potato fries with it
- smoothies (!)
- tofu in tomato sauce (sooooo good)
- veggie coconut curry.
Many vegan options and some vegetarian dishes can be made vegan, for example the burger. The staff speaks english (!) and understands what "vegan" means; the only thing was that they put mayo on the burger even though we asked for no animals products. Unfortunately, most Vietnamese people don't know mayo isn't vegan.
The location is good, the place is awesome, there are many plants and the athmosphere is nice.
The price is good, very good for some dishes but less so for others. For example, we didn't take a smoothie bowl because it was tiny and very expensive in comparison.
But definitely go there! And try the burger!

Pros: fresh and delicious vegan food, many vegan options, staff speaks english!

Cons: more pricey than other restaurants, but worth it!, egg mayo on burger

Super yummy!

They have two pages of declared vegetarian and vegan food.
We had a Pho, the coconut Curry, summer rolls and a green mango salad (all vegan) and it was really delicious.
Additionally we used the opportunity to order a jar of infused water with a bamboo straw to avoid plastic trash. A cool thing, especially when you see how many plastic bottles are laying around/ at the beach of Cat Ba.
The Staff was super friendly and spoke proper English,
we had a great view from the rooftop and the whole restaurant looked super clean.
When we paid, the door to the kitchen was open and it also looked hygienic from the distance.
To my mind the best restaurant in Cat Ba so far.

Pros: Declared vegetarian & vegan options , Delicious food , They try to avoid plastic trash

Casa I love it!

Delicious vegetarian/vegan food and shakes! Me and my partner have been here 5 times in two days. There is great atmosphere and the staff is very friendly, funny and relaxed. Also speak quite good English! It’s a very reasonable price for the quality and we would say this is the best restaurant in Cat Ba. Tho it’s not fully vego restaurant as they serve a small amount of non-veg food, but I feel like they do take it very seriously. Highly recommended!

Lovely food and beautiful restaurant

We found this place on our last night in Cat Ba! The location on happy cow seems a bit off on my maps, basically get to the location on maps then continue to walk up the street and you’ll find the restaurant on your right. They have a page dedicated to vegan and veggie options and both me and my partner had the veggie burger . Just make sure to specify no egg no mayo. It was delicious and reasonably priced. Also they have almond milk so you can enjoy a smoothie or milkshake, the Oreo is yum, and they use bamboo straws which gives them major points! Overall a lovely setting for dinner.

Pros: Good vegan options , Beautiful setting , Staff are very helpful

Cons: Slightly higher prices than other places

Great veggies burger - Great service

There are 02 things you guys must try in this restaurant:
*Veggies burger from tofu and chopped carrot and mushroom. Taste so good and so fresh!
*Smoothie bowl: i tried all the smoothie bowls in the restaurant's menu and can't tell which is the best. Im a fan of peanut butter and coffee so I suggest The morning moaner.
*Veggies coconut curry: the best veggies curry ever. I'm sure
Try them all

Pros: Tasty meals, Relaxing vibes - friendly staff, Green space

Great meal in Cat Ba!

Went here on my first night in Cat Ba. Super cozy place with wonderful rooftop terrace. The Vegetarian dishes were very reasonably priced (about 50k each) so we had 4. Pad Thai (asked without egg), steamed veggies, tofu in tomato sauce and papaya salad were all delicious and came quickly. Unfortunately the electricity on the island was out at the time of our dinner so we couldn't have a chocolate banana milk shake (with almond milk). Will definitely come back for that!

Pros: lots of vegan options, reasonable price, very friendly staff and quick service

Cons: serves meat

Great food, best smoothie ever

I spent 5 days staying at Catba on tasting all the veggies dishes and special smoothies at this restaurant.
1. The legendary Veggies burger: It's 100% home-made, i visit there bakery where they bake the burger buns. It's actually free to enter, no prohibition. Everything in the bakery is spotless. Knowing well of what I'm eating make the food taste better. The burger patty is made from tofu, carrot and peas. A perfect combination of the chef.
2. All the Casa'special smoothies are worth trying. Very good, very tasty and healthy.
3. Nice servants
4. Peaceful atmosphere with good music
So good no it is too good to say anything about it.

Pros: Best food ever, Best smoothie ever, The most relax restaurant in Catba

Variety of choice for fruitarians

What can a fruitarian eat in this restaurant?
1. Smoothie bowls: Mapple Joe Nutty Nana and Carrot cake are two of my favorite food at Casa Bonita, it's suitable for me every moment of the day.
2. Fresh fruits teas: Rose apple tea is the best tea ever with dried rose buds and fresh diced apples, coming after is Golden mango tea with green tea mix with fresh dice sweet mango and mango juice. They got around 5 other types of tea, but I just sticked with those 2 teas during my stay at Catba.
3. Fresh fruits salad: they have 4 types of fruits in a salad bowls, you can choose among home-made yogurt, honey or maple syrup if you are a vegan.
I'm a fruitarian and it's more than happy to eat fruits in different styles than just going to the market, buying fresh fruits then peel and eat during the travelling.
BIG THANKS!

Pros: Best fruit dishes ever, Best fruits teas ever, Best Fruit salad with maple syrup ever

Cons: WHY COULDN'T I RATE THIS RESTAURANT 5 STARS?

Too good to describe

I ate every single meal at this restaurant and it's so sad to say good bye because people in this place are like my friends.
- Best Tofu in tomato sauce of Vietnam
- Best Veggies burger of Asia
- Many healthy drinks to choose: flower and fresh fruit teas. Lychee and jazmine tea is a must try.
- They also have maple syrup using instead of honey for vegan.
- Beautiful space to enjoy the food
- Very friendly and helpful staffs
Would be back if i travel to Vietnam again.

Pros: Best food ever, Many healthy drinks to choose , Great vibes

Cons: NOT A LITTLE THING TO COMPLAIN

Good choice for vegetarians

Various foods and drinks for vegetarians.
Foods are simply from veggies, tofu, eggs and seeds oil.
The special smoothie menu has some green juices that taste really good and fresh.
Came here every meal during 3 days in Cat Ba and found out the Tofu and veggies burgers, potatoes and cheese balls and the bulk up the drinks were my favorites of all time.

Pros: Tastefully decorated and yummy food , Great drinks , Green space with a lot of tree and nice music
