Vegan versions of local specialities - Edit
We came here to try the local specialities Cao Lau and My Quanh and they were really tasty and delicious! We also had a stuffed bun (like the Chinese Baozi) which was filled with veggies and mushroom. If you eat here, you'll have many vegan options including tofu and mock meat. I think, there was even a rice paper bacon. At the end we got some free food. The owner is very kind.
Read moreThey seem to serve yoghurt, milk and egg (egg-coffee) so they're not vegan. The food seems vegan though. You can try coconut ice cream coffee. They also offer vegan cooking classes.
Pros: local specialities , free wifi
Cons: serves dairy/egg with coffee

Great food and service - Edit
Has a very expansive menu. The lady who owns the shop has good English and was very helpful in making selections with my Omni friends. I had the Pho and my partner had the tofu in tomato sauce. Both were excellent! Would recommend!

Delicious organic food + the best service in the world - Edit
I'm so glad I discovered this place at the start of my trip because I ate here every single day. The food is incredible and it's honestly the best experience with the most friendly service I've experienced.
Read moreThere is a varied menu of both western and Vietnamese dishes which are all extremely well priced. I tried most of them and they were all delicious and FRESH!
Definitely try the sushi and Vietnamese pancakes! There is a huge list of tasty fresh fruit juices, smoothies and you can even grab a beer too.
Linh, the owner has been vegan since birth and has been running her restaurant for 29 years. She grows all her own ingredients organically in her garden - you can't get fresher than that! It's obvious she is passionate about veganism and cooking - you can taste it in all of her dishes.
Linh is also the nicest person in the world. She made me feel so welcome every time I visited. On my last morning in Vietnam she sat down and ate breakfast with me, then when I was leaving she gave me a packed lunch to take with me incase I couldn't get vegan food at the airport!
Absolutely the best food and experience I’ve had in Vietnam and honestly, the best, most heart-warming service I’ve seen anywhere in the world.
Pros: Delicious, homegrown organic food, Friendliest owner in the world , Excellent prices

Great food, friendly owner - Edit
This is my favorite vegan place in Hoi An so far. Food is great, prices are cheap, the restaurant is very clean and cozy and the owner is amazing. She's fluent in english and keen to share recipes with you during her vegan cooking classes. I also appreciate that they use the word 'vegan' on their menu and signs. I'll be back for dinner, that's for sure 😁

De casualidad pase por aquí y me gustó! - Edit
La propietaria tiene su propio jardín orgánico de verduras y hierbas aromaticas. Falta arte a la hora de presentar los platos, pero desde luego la materia prima es auténtica.

Amazing vegan restaurant in Hoi An - Edit
This restaurant was by far our favourite in the whole of Hoi An. We stumbled across it while walking around and were curious when we saw a sign for a vegan cooking course. After chatting to the owner we found out that everything is vegan (she has been vegan for 26years!) She has her own garden where she grows the veg for the restaurant herself and everything is 100% organic. After speaking to the owner, Linh, we could see that she is really passionate about healthy wholesome vegan food.
Read moreThe food didn't disappoint! She does a lot of Vietnamese classic dishes in a vegan version and we loved everything. Make sure you try the fresh turmeric and ginger tea too.
Linh was very kind and often gave us a plate of fresh fruit after lunch and sent us away with a gift of coffee beans at the end of our trip.
If we're back in Hoi an we'll definitely visit again (and hopefully do the cooking course too!)
Don't be put off by the simple appearance of this restaurant, it's a true gem in what is otherwise quite a touristy town.
Pros: 100% organic, 100% vegan, Family run and authentic
KylieFagan
100% agreed! Linh is the sweetest woman! The food was also amazing, better than I expected. They have so many options from western to Vietnamese food. It will not disappoint. Also, I second getting something with tumeric in it! It is delicious and I am usually not a fan!

Fantastic - Edit
We absolutely loved eating here during our stay in Hoi An. Linh is very friendly with good English and is happy to help with any questions about the food. We particularly enjoyed the spring rolls, mock meat and also the fried wontons were amazing. Lunch time is a good option for Banh Mi filled with huge tofu pieces and some delicious home made chilli sauce.

Cons: None

Vegan food by the ancient town - Edit
The front of Nhat Da was closed but, as previous reviews have said, the place next door was open and offered us a vegetarian menu. They also checked whether we were vegan or vegetarian before they cooked our food.
Read moreWe'd have liked to try the buffet but the menu had a lot of choice.
We tried fried rice, mock meat, papaya salad and tofu with tomato sauce. All good and a good price too.
Just a few minutes away from the hussle of the main ancient town streets.
Friendly service.
Pros: Vegan menu.
Cons: Shame buffet was closed., Cafe next door does serve meat too.

Basic but cheap - Edit
Very basic, not very inspiring food in the style of Vietnamese rice with mixed veg and tofus. However, it's a budget option in an otherwise expensive town.

Tasty vegan food, average service - Edit
After reading all the amazing reviews I was a bit disappointed that the service wasn't as good as other people have said. The older lady in there was grumpy and didn't smile. To be fair she didn't speak English so maybe she was nervous, but at least a smile would have been good.
Read moreThe food when it came was actually very tasty so that bumped up my review to 4 stars! The spring rolls were actually delicious, and the Tofu in tomato sauce nice enough.
I would still recommend this place to all vegans and vegetarians. The service is very fast and food is cheap.
Pros: Fast service, Cheap, Tasty
Cons: Moody lady that served me

Delicious and generous - Edit
This place was just wonderful. We arrived and there was a family banquet happening and so we were seated in the space next door and given menus. A short time later the woman serving us, who I assume is Linh, came and informed us that her family was celebrating a festival and we were invited to share the banquet and didn't need to order. She brought us noodle soup, spring rolls, mock meats, brown rice crackers, lychees, sticky rice sweets: enough food to well and truly satisfy us. All the food was absolutely delicious. When we left full, I asked the price, and she told us we were their guests and didn't need to pay. We reluctantly accepted this amazing generosity but made sure to come back on another occasion and spend a decent amount of money.

It was nice - Edit
Nothing to special but nice. Arrived after lunch so maybe the experience would have been better if we got there for the buffet. Tried the baos, tofu and beans. All was ok but lacked somewhat in taste.
Read morePros: Lots of options. Had baos.
Cons: Not so tasteful

It was fast and low cost. A sweet lady serving was very helpful. Recommended.
Read moreTasty food and normal portion. Vegan. Take some advice about the menu, they will recommend good owner dishes.
By the road so expect a little of the classic motorbike horns for whatever reason, but not too much.
