Teamwechsel?

Leider scheint das Küchenteam sich verändert zu haben. Habe eine WokGenüseGericht bestellt. Kennt ihr den Geruch und Geschmack von altem Frittierfett, das eigentlich entsorgt werden müsste?

Pros: gute Speisekarte, freundliches Personal, optisch netter Laden

Cons: sehr schlechte Küchenabluftanlage, das Fett im Essen war eindeutig alt

Yum :)

Yummy food! We had to sit outside because inside was all reserved. Food was super yummy, not that expensive. Filled our bellies

Leckere Pho

Die vegane Pho schmeckt fantastisch. Schade ist nur, dass sehr wenig Tofu in der Pho war.

Einige weitere vegane Gerichte auf der Karte, wie Bowls und Vorspeisen.

Bezeichnungen (vegan, vegetarisch) sind etwas irreführend.

Es gibt ein paar vegane Gerichte

Hatte eine Vegane Bowl mit Reisnudeln, Tofu, Nüssen und Gemüse. Sehr lecker.

Good!

All of our food was great and the only thing i could criticize is that there were many wok dishes on the menu but no vegan one. Inspired by a picture another Happy Cow User posted, we asked if we could also have a veganized udon noodle dish which ended up being good but not amazing really. Was very nice of them to make it though :)

Sehr leckeres Essen

Nett und modern eingerichteter Laden, ausgesprochen freundliche und aufmerksame Mitarbeiter*innen, neben den ohnehin veganen Speisen können auch andere „veganisiert“ werden, etwa die Sommerrollen, in denen sonst Ei wäre. Das Essen war wirklich gut, leckere Kompositionen und auch hübsch angerichtet.

Freitag Abend war es sehr voll, man sollte also unbedingt reservieren.

Pros: Leckeres Essen, angemessene Portionen, Flexible Küche, Zum gemeinsamen Essen mit Omnis geeignet

Cons: Nur Barzahlung , Etwas eng

Premium vietnamesisches Essen

Sehr angenehmes Ambiente, freundliches Personal, freundlich zu Hunden, hammermäßiges Essen. Auch Fleischgerichte konnten veganisiert werden. Nur nicht das günstigste Restaurant, aber das war es wert!

Pros: Gerichte können vegan abgewandelt werden, Schönes Lokal+Atmosphäre , Hundefreundlich

Cons: Service etwas langsam (aber dafür entspannt)

delicious food, friendly staff, nice ambience

would've loved to eat in (super friendly staff, nice ambience) but only arrived 15 mins before closing time. so, I got an extremely delicious dish for takeaway which made me both miss vietnam and want to return to this place, sit down properly and try out other hopefully equally delicious options

also great for takeaway at LUA in Essen

Vietnamesische Küche at its best

Sehr leckere vegane und allgemein hoch qualitative Gerichte. Freundliche Bedienung und gemütliches Ambiente. Vorab reservieren ist ein Muss.

Tasty and super friendly

Wasn't disappointed, this place makes amazing food, helps with vegan choices which felt plenty enough - the overall card isn't that big.
I think its good when (especially small ) places restrict the volume of choices and do what they offer, well

Very much in the city center but doesn't feel like it.

Im coming back

Pros: Friendly, good vegan options, fair pricing

Cons: You cant try everything at once

Ok!

Food was absolutely ok but not super special. I‘ve had better (more varied!) Vietnamese food before and a bigger choice of vegan options (if not a 100% vegan menu)
Unfortunately the vegan pho was not available today so we were limited to one main dish which mostly consisted of rice noodels and only a few veggies.
With the vegan sauce it was still delicious just nothing special.

Pros: Fresh and tasty , Summer rolls with mango and avocado!

Cons: Not a lot of vegan choices , Pay by cash only

Great Food and lovely staff

I loved it here. Everything was fresh and tasty, including the drinks. The staff was nice and we didn't even have to pay for dessert. Prices were absolutely fair! You should try the cocos-dessert, it's one of the best things I've ever eaten. Will come back!
