Delicious! - Edit
So many amazing options, it was difficult to choose! The tempura mushrooms are a must try 😍
Read morePortions were generous, delicious and cheap. I am keen to return and try some more.
Loving Hut is easily accessible from the train station, which is a plus as it's located in a very busy location if you're driving. The only downside, as others have mentioned, is the single-use utensils.
Pros: Huge selection of dishes , Cost effective , Toilet on site
Cons: Single-use utensils

Consistently good food, gets better as the years go by! - Edit
UPDATE 2024:
Read moreConsidering our last review was in 2011 I can't imagine how many times we've been back in the last 13 years! Loving Hut is our go to in Cabramatta, the staff are friendly and the food is ALWAYS good. Our current favourite is Mì Quang, a delicious noodle soup with a whole bunch of different textures and flavours, hard to describe but easy to eat!
There is also a cute little outdoor/indoor area out the back, which is great in the warmer months to dine in.

Great banh mi! - Edit
I ordered the banh mi via doordash and they arrived well packaged. Taste was still fresh and the combination or sweet and sour in their dishes is divine. Would recommend

We are rarely out this way being from Wollongong. When we get a chance we dine here. Amazing vegan Vietnamese food. Menu is extensive. You’ll never run out of options. So spoilt to have these options. Respect ❤️

Love this place - Edit
Have eaten here several times now and the food is always delicious. The menu is extensive and varied. Portion sizes are generous. Good value for money in 2023. The interior is quite charmingly decorated in its own quirky way. Service is so-so but that's OK because I'm here for the amazing food.
Read moreI really want to give it 5 stars but the handing out of disposable cups to every diner for tea, disposable chopsticks individually wrapped in plastic and dipping sauce for the fresh rolls served in disposable plastic containers even when dining in is a fail.

Yes. They say “Be Veg, Go Green…” but it doesn’t seem like they’re getting the second part right.

Best Wontons! - Edit
So much to choose from. I’ve missed my fried wontons and these ones were better than any I’ve had! Next fav was the eggplant dish. KFC chicken was too battered for me. Duck pancakes were pretty good. They ran out of the red velvet cupcakes so had the Biscoff one instead, was ok (little dry and super cold, warmed up would have been nicer). Had the very quiet back room away from the busy main restaurant area. Easy ordering from the table with the QR code.
Read morePros: Best wontons , Sweet and friendly staff
Cons: Parking 🅿️ is terrible on weekend around lunch

Must visit - Edit
There are pages of original and fully-vegan options here!
Read moreI went with my manager and we got the KFC chicken as a starter, he got the spicy sizzling chicken as a main and I got the Vietnamese pancake with a watermelon juice.
The KFC chicken is super crunchy and legit! There are four reasonably large pieces so it’s quite filling as a starter for two.
The Vietnamese pancake was massive! It was hanging off the sides of a large dinner plate. Super tasty with greens on the side. It did come with a lot of mint leaves which I didn’t really understand? But it was so filling, I couldn’t eat it all.
The watermelon juice tastes like the watermelon had been chopped up and juiced with nothing else added. It was so refreshing and made me a feel bit healthier after the KFC chicken.
The interior is super cute the lady who served us was very sweet.
Highly recommend!
Pros: Lots of vegan options , Mixture of heavier and lighter options , Friendly staff
Cons: Parking nearby can be difficult

Delicious Authentic Vegan Vietnamese Cuisine - Edit
The Loving Hut Cabramatta has become our family meeting place for a delicious Vietnamese vegan lunch or dinner.
Read moreThe helpful staff go out of their way to ensure you have a pleasant meal. Even my non vegan family members love the food here.
The recent renovations are great with comfy seating and a fresh new vibe to go with the always fresh tofu.
The generous portions, unlimited free green tea and reasonable prices are especially good with the current economic situation.
My favourite dishes are Lemongrass Tofu & Rice, Salt & Pepper Tofu, Cashew Braised Vegetables & Tofu and Royal Noodle Soup.
Pros: Generous Portions, Great for Sharing., Good Value For Money & Unlimited Free Green Tea., Excellent Tasting Food with the Freshest Tofu.
Cons: Customers Leaving the Entrance Door Open.

Great rice - perfectly cooked. The mock chicken was yummy but a little too spicy for me, but I find most things are. Love the free tea on the table.

Visited with family and friends all of whom are omnivores. We all had different vegan meals and they were all very tasty and very reasonably priced. I will certainly visit there again and try some more.

Com Chay in Da Cab' - Edit
Delicious! Amazing! Phenomenal! Avocado Smoothie? You bet. Fresh Chili? Heck yeah! By luck, in 2020 when travel borders closed, I landed in Australia. Nearly two years later and by further luck I finally made it out to Sydney's home of the lively Vietnamese suburb called Cabramatta. Missing Saigon, I was even more lucky still to satiate my stinging want for Com Chay (Vietnamese for Vegan Food) at the Loving Hut there. This location shot straight to the tippy-top of my list of favorite Loving Huts as I enjoyed an avocado smoothie, cold saigon salad, hot tea and samples of my lunch guests dishes of mock meats with noodles or rice. What a treat! The restaurant was clean and casual and didn't kick me out for being barefoot (my shoes were covered in mud from sanctuary work) and it was all a very nice reward for being vegan. Reminding me that maybe vegans don't get the best treatment from society at large, but we certainly get the best food! Make your way to Loving Hut in Da Cab for a homey reminder of the best flavors of Vietnam!

Our friends took us to Loving Hut in Cabramatta. Being close to a big Buddhist Temple, there is a huge vegan food culture in Cabramatta which I didn't know anything about.
Read moreThe here is Vietnamese and here's what we had:
As for starters, we ordered Peking Duck Rolls, Vegetable Spring Rolls and some dumpling. Dumplings never arrived though. As for the mains, we ordered Stuffed Rice Noodle Plate, The Vietnamese Pancake and Loving Hut Stir-Fry.
Pros: great food

Lovely food and huge menu. I do have a few criticisms though: the soup options are served with limited veggies and too much mock meat, and I think the food is too oily; however, this is just personal preference.

Wow - Edit
Having only being vegan for not quite 12 months it has been a bit of a journey of discovery from the only vegan option being chips, a green salad or a grilled vegetable wrap to..... something like this where to much choice is a problem.
Read moreAll the other review say it all really, fantastic food, huge menu with so much to choose from. Some dishes rely on a faux meat so generally not GF but many others are fine.
The use and integration of some of the faux meat products I found amazing. We had the All Out Special Salad (a mixed meat ( squid, pork, prawn)style Vietnamese/Thai salad). This was fantastic with circa 3 types of faux meat products ranging from a very convincing squid replacement to a multilayered pork belly replacement. This salad was lovely and probably a regular for us when we go back. We also had the Vietnamese pancake and fish hot pot.
If you are into Asian food then there is something here for you. There is even a range of western style dishes such as pies, burgers etc. if that’s what you’re looking for.
Pros: Amazing food, Train station nearby, Super friendly staff offering recommendations
Cons: Parking can be a challenge
