Fine dining for value

We wanted a nice place to eat before visiting the War museum. It’s super close by and we was not expecting it to be so fancy for such a small price! There menu is very extensive but doesn’t label vegan items

Pros: Big menu , Delicious coffee

Cons: Doesn’t label vegan items

Hidden gem!

This is definitely a more pricy restaurant, but the interior is beautiful, the service is very good and the food was delicious! I ordered the curry with pumpkin and it was so good.😌 The staff is also really friendly.

Good food

The food was good, it is a rather expensive place and my main course consisted of six little fried tofu pieces…

Pros: Beautiful atmosphere, Delicious

Cons: Small portion, Language barrier, Rather expensive

Beautiful venue, good food, high prices

Saigon is full of fancy vegetarian restaurants. I visited here as Hum was closed and I was visiting the American War museum.

The garden atmosphere and top customer service are great for special events and dates and a little awkward as a solo backpacker among large affluent families. I really enjoyed the food, however was a bit dissatisfied by the expense given the portion sizes.

Good for vegetarians /vegans, not for Coeliacs

This is a lovely restaurant hidden down a side street, it resembles a garden. The menu is great, lots of interesting options. The food is very tasty.

They are not good with allergies.

I had an allergy card in Vietnamese and used Google translate to further explain my restrictions. When the food arrived I double checked that the noodles were gluten free & not made with wheat flour. I was reassured they were. They clearly were not as I have been very unwell since the meal and it has been over 24 hours since eating. This is a typical response when I accidently eat gluten. They had checked with some items but didn't seem to understand really.
I would say good for vegetarians & vegans not good for Coeliac or gluten intolerant sufferers

Pros: Venue, Ambience, Taste

Cons: Not good for allergy sufferers

We are sorry that your server on that day had a misunderstanding and did not clearly explain it to you as well. The service was somehow not up to your expectations. Having said that, we really appreciate your feedback and will continue to improve our service even more. We hope to have a chance to welcome you again with a better experience. Thank you, we love you!

Extensive vegan and vegetarian expertly prepared and presented with lovely location. Got tipped off by retired NYC Vietnamese American police officer and he was spot on. Worth a detour to check out.

Must visit

Found this place whilst touring the city, located down a little side street.
Garden type feel to the restaurant.
I would say it was a dominantly vegan menu which was good.
Staff was friendly
Food was amazing with lots to choose from
Price wise I think it was in the cheaper side for restaurants prices

Would I eat here again...... 100% 😁

Mixed review

It was a bit on the pricey side for restaurants. In my opinion, it wasn't necessarily worth it. I ordered four things, two of which were great, but the other two were not so good, partly because one wasn't prepared well. The garden atmosphere was nice. Not sure I would go again.

Phenomenal

Found this place for lunch on our way to the war museum and was blown away. Incredible vegan food, some of the nicest we’ve had in Vietnam. Slightly on the expensive side but definitely worth it. Our waiter spoke great English, food was delicious, and it’s set in an done-up outdoor garden which gives a really nice feel.
‘Lap Garden’ dish was incredible!

Lovely setting, super friendly staff. Close to the war museum which made travel easy. Tried the vegan rice paper rolls and a rice dish. Only downside is it was more expensive than other options but the pretty setting made it worth it

Creative and tasty

The food is of Vietnamese fusion. The dishes are all super tasty and beautifully presented. I think the experience much more comfortable because I was seated inside where it wasn’t too loud. The wait time however can be a little long because the place can be busy at times.
