Burgers confusion

I've had the burgers before. It was a decent size with juicy pieces of pineapple and really a good onion mix. Today I ordered a Hawaiian Burger and it was disappointing. The pineapple was a slither and was mostly mushrooms. I actually did not think there was any burger in there at all until I found a small piece. The flavors were not discernible. It was one of those experiences where you start to question if you went to the right place or ordered the right item. The fries were okay. Given the expense of going to a restaurant, the experience matters. Not sure I'm going to be going here anymore.

Pros: Viva La fries are good., Staff is friendly and the food comes fast, Clean

Cons: Expensive, Tipping for pick up, but that's everywhere.

Used to be my favorite restaurant.

Owner of restaurant started disparaging non-vegans, when my daughter cd hear him.

Pros: Always have liked the food.

Cons: Owner disparaged my daughter, who is not vegan., I will never go there again., It is bad business to trash your customers.

I had a very solid meal here

This is a very typical loving hut location. Actually maybe this is a more traditional Loving Hut location. This location has a very large amount of information and marketing on the Supreme Master. I don’t seem to see as much of that anymore at Loving Huts. I actually enjoyed seeing it. YMMV.

I got the summer rolls and the house recommended dish, “Cha – Cha.” I really liked both. I thought the summer rolls and the sauce were very good and the cha-cha was very tasty. I finished with a slice of lemon cake, which was OK. It was good, but not great.

Wontons!

A bit run down restaurant , but excellent food, especially the wontons. Otherwise a solid vegan asian food location. Would agree that it could be heavier on the veggies, but their protein was pretty good.

Awesome

Delicious food, friendly service. The pho was bomb, with flavorful broth and so many toppings, and the coconut cake was out of this world. My non-vegan family members were seriously impressed and said they’d come back!

Delish

I always get the save the oceans with side of tofu. Recommend with soy sauce and Chile sauce. Doesn’t look like much in the photo I posted but it is yuba wrapped in nori and is delish- so good I always get it and can’t bring myself to order anything else no many how many times I order from here even though I hear everything else is excellent too. However I have ordered other things when eating there in person and it is all amazeballs

Pros: Yummy, Yummy, Yummy

Careful of upcharges

Their prices differ from what’s on the menu without them telling you. Be ware. Food was pretty good. Not the best Loving Hut I’ve been to, but good. The one in Portland is much better but unfortunately it’s temporarily closed.

Pros: That it’s fully vegan, Good food

Cons: Prices aren’t presented clearly

I only get the pad Thai here.

Very authentic looking atmosphere.
I agree with it needing a renovation. order the pad Thai here and you will love it , I promise!

Careful, with fake meat plates they over serve on the soy meats and not many veggies. Which is why I stick to noodle dishes.
I question their quality of veggies since they don’t serve many on the dishes.

Pros: All vegan , Good price , Many locations in AZ and CA

Cons: Not organic , Needs renovation

Heavy on the Protien Light on Veggies

Limited menu as far as healthy goes. All three dishes we ordered had twice the amount of faux meat than veggies.

Pros: Comfort food

Cons: Not enough veggies

Delicious!

Quaint eatery with a great selection of vegan options skewed more towards an Asian influence. Loved the Moo Shu Vegetable Rolls and the Sizzling Rice Soup - great broth! I look forward to returning to sample much more of their offerings. #Veganuary

Pros: Great options

Good but different menu

Lots of selections but limited chick'n items.

We were a little disappointed that the Phoenix location has some different menu items compared to the one on University in Tempe.

The couple who came in behind us asked for something they get at the Tempe location as well. So we aren't the only ones looking for these different meals.

I really wanted the Noble Noodle Chick'n Bowl but they don't offer it. The nice waitress suggested #19 BBQ noodle bowl. I found it to be too oily for my taste. Their veggie beef protein was oily plus it came with deep fried rolls.

I will have to study their menu to see what I can get when we go back.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Lemon water was refreshing, Helpful waitress, plenty of indoor seating

Cons: Not the same menu as Tempe, Less chick'n options

LovingHut are often owned by different people and thus have different menus. They’re not a franchise like McDonalds or something.

All vegan!

The place was empty when we got there on a weeknight at 6pm but it soon filled up. The food was amazing. The service was good. It is so great knowing everything on the menu is vegan! I brought my Omni son and he loved it!

Pros: All vegan, Locally owned, Healthy vegan food

Food was too fried

I got the onion rings and the ocean sandwich. Even though they tasted good, they were so fried that I had a stomachache. Nonetheless, the service was great and the staff was really friendly.

Wasn’t impressed

I know Loving Hut has restaurants unique to location around the world but I never really make it a priority to visit one while traveling. With this one, I was not impressed. I ordered the banh mi Philly, heaven rice rolls, and house fried rice. The banh mi didn’t taste fresh. The bread was awfully hard. The rolls were cool but I wasn’t really impressed. The fried rice…..well the restaurant forgot to pack that in my order so I did not receive it

My favorite restaurant

This is definitely a place where you can close your eyes and point to something and it will taste fantastic. Only some of the locations sell the pandan cake and it is definitely worth it! The staff are always super kind and accommodating. Love this place.

OK food, great service

Asian vegan places aren’t common there I decided to try this place with my kids. The three entrees we got were ok. Service was great. Will probably try another location and try other items.

Tasty but sketchy!

definitely delicious, however, for some reason I can’t iterate, I will never go back. It had a dirty atmosphere and they were hardly busy and our food came out in ten seconds which is questionable

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Delicious

Cons: Dirty, Old, Good came out way to fast

Definitely best location

This one is definitely the better location for taste, service, and atmosphere. That being said, it's fantastic.

I enjoyed the dumplings and the summer rolls to compliment my coconut curry.

Don't miss the Rose Lemonade!
