A "go to" place in District 1 - Edit
This is a great place to get affordable (50k) vegan food that tastes great. They have a daily dish as well as one dish available every day. This allows for some variety and the dishes are sufficient and filling.

Spring rolls from heaven - Edit
We came here for breakfast and had the rice noodles with spring rolls and tofu. Holy [censored] the spring rolls are delicious af. Spicy but not too spicy. The little place offers three meals per day for little money. Must try when you’re in Saigon.

Thank you so much. So happy that you like our spring rolls, that of course 100% vegan, home made and with our special “fish” sauce, 100% vegan (of course) that we make from home made kombucha and pineapple. We really appreciate you using time on a great review. 🥬🥦☘️🙏🏼

Adorable little hideout - Edit
Nice, adorable little vegan cafe in a tiny, hidden alley way. Their food menu seem to change everyday with 2-3 options available. Really cute humble looking place. I came at 2pm on a Saturday and there wasn’t anyone else. The food is amazing, there’s free wifi. Main dish cost 50k, coffee 22k. Super reasonably priced and great portion sizes.

Great coffee and delicious food - Edit
I believe the only non vegan item on the menu is the coffee with cows milk. I had the iced coffee with cashew milk and a Bún Chà Giò noodle which is a cold vermicelli bowl with fried spring rolls served with vegan fish sauce (apparently made with kombucha). They also served me a complimentary iced green tea. The prices are reasonable which means really inexpensive according to US standards. It was absolutely delicious.

Open now (April 2022) - Edit
So nice! Clean and quiet, mostly vegan eatery with a daily combo set meal and a really good selection of vegan-friendly drinks. I tried fried rice, bitter gourd soup, fried spring rolls, carrot beetroot ginger juice and cashew milk hot coffee — everything was perfect. The whole place is very well-designed, has a peaceful vibe, tucked away in the lanes off Bui Vien. Wi-Fi is 100Mbit/s, there are power sockets. For the quality, the price is very low. Loved it!

Simple but good!! - Edit
2 vegan options per day to choose from, only a few speak English but everyone is very friendly. Good price value. Evening time often only one option left, not really a con as it avoids food waste too😄went back there
Read morePros: Vegan, affordable
Cons: Only two options, evening time often only one
Naunau
Thank you so much for the kind words, we are happy to hear that you understand our concept. We don't wanna waste food and at the same time wanna make the most reasonable prices, that can only be done by increasing after demands. And another thing is that we wanna make the taste of homemade food, so we cook all dishes daily to make sure the taste and quality are the best. Soon we will make 100% vegan and authentic Banh Mi, from vegan mayo, pate made from nuts and mushrooms and homemade tofu sausage. 💚🌿💚

A wonderful little restaurant tucked away behind the main tourist streets. The food was delicious and the whole place just had a really nice vibe.

Inexpensive Tasty Vegan Food - Edit
My friend recommended this hidden vegan place to me when she found out I was going to visit Saigon. It was a great surprise when I walked in, the place was nicely decorated and very clean. They have a different vegan dish for each day of the week. I tried Pho soup on Sunday, it was so tasty so I came back the next day to try Curry, and I was not disappointed. I also liked their iced coffee with milk, and had passion fruit juice to go.

Cozy place - Edit
We enjoyed staying in this place, because it's a small, relaxed oasis in the middle of the tourist area. Hidden in a small alley you can have a daily changing lunch dish. Because of Tet our noodle soup was very basic, but ok for this price (35K in the tourist area is a good price for lunch). We also had an ice orange-carrot juice (29K) and a coconut coffee (35 K), which could be a bit sweeter 😅
Read moreAll in all a nice place, with friendly stuff and a cozy atmosphere, which is much better, than most of the other places around in the tourist area.

A charming find. - Edit
What a wonderful little place! It’s a little oasis of tranquillity, just a few metres off the backpacker trail down an alley, but far enough to feel as if you’re in another, much less stressful world. When I visited, there were two dishes on offer: vegetable noodles and vegetable fried rice. The drinks menu was much more comprehensive, and features some interesting local beverages, including one made from pomelo flowers. I had the noodles, which came with a spring roll and fried tofu. They were similar to what you might find on the street, but vegan, and at a street price too – I was quite surprised they cost only VND 35,000, considering how beautifully designed the restaurant was. I also had the excellent coffee, which came with vegan condensed milk – the first time I have seen this – and extra hot water, a nice touch. Again, this made it seem very authentic. I was on the way to catch a bus, and so the early opening hours were much appreciated. The owner assured me everything she uses is vegan, and, although her English isn’t strong, she is very welcoming and has a great concept – good, simple food at good prices, in lovely surroundings. UPDATE: some of the menu items are NOT vegan, such as the coconut ice cream. (Apparently they're working on a vegan version...) This isn't shown on the menu, so you need to ask.

Hidden place - Edit
In a small alley next to Bui Vien street there is this quiet, small cafe/restaurant.
Read moreIt is really a surprise to find a place like this so near all the beer bars and party music. Here I can relax and enjoy an honest vegan meal for only 35K VND. It taste so good. The staff was very friendly and helpful with the password to the free wifi. The Vietnamese coffee (20K) taste really good, clean taste of real coffee (not roasted in butter and sugar as many do in Vietnam) I feel blessed to finally have found a peaceful place here in Saigon where I can relax and avoid the noise from the big city a few hours once in a while.
About the place:
They serve 1-2 vegan dishes a day.
Free WiFi.
No plastic straws and when you order takeaway all boxes are made from paper and plant materials.
Free scooter parking. (2-3 bikes)
Open every day.
Vegan food, hot and cold coffee/tea, fresh made juice, soda and beer.
I just love to see someone care about the big picture...
Pros: Excellent healthy food, Great value, Very clean

Delicious food, nice atmosphere - Edit
Restaurant serves two different dishes (that change daily) plus a wide selection of drinks. When we came, unfortunately only one of the meals was available, but it was really yummy, so we were quite happy with our dinner. The owner was really friendly and spoke basic English. At 35k per meal, it was a really good deal and I will gladly come again.
Read morePros: Nice atmosphere and good service , Tasty and cheap food
Cons: Limited selection, Might run out of a meal if you come later in a day
