It's not what you'd expect for 4.5 stars

The food looks and taste like meat, so we had a really weird feeling about if it was for real vegan.
It's also not fresh and not clean at all.

Pros: It's super cheap

Great food

I went there twice and the food was good, particularly the cao lau which comes as a filling bowl. The bun were also great, so were the spring rolls though the portion is quite smaller. I would recommend the place.

Pros: Good and not expensive

Yummy!

I went there twice and had the local specialty - Cao Lau - which was delicious. I also had a buffet plate take away. I agree with previous comments: the mock meat tastes great.

Pros: They use "natural fibre" boxes to take away

Cons: But they use plastic spoons...

A hidden Gem

This has been our local spot for the past two weeks. They serve delicious buffet style food as well as a variety of fresh noodle dishes. The staff are all happy and helpful and the food is super tasty. I would recommend trying there dumplings as a naughty treat. and ordering a cold coconut to cool you down.

Pros: Great value for money , Clean , Friendly

Go if you enjoy mock meat

I was redirected from the buffet into the seating area and given the menu - not sure if buffet is an option for non-locals?

Had the Cao Lau and the steamed bun (was luke warm unfortunately). The noodle dish was okay, but way too oily.

The mock meat tho is probably the best I had - in terms of texture and flavour. And the prices are ridiculously cheap - paid 30k VND for the whole meal

Pros: Mock meat, cheap

Cons: Oily, buffet of limits?

Cheap and tasty

El lugar está cerca del centro historico, existen varias opciones para probar, sobre todo el Cao lau vegan. También existe la opción buffet. Y por cada plato pagas menos de 1 € 😱. Muy recomendado, sobre todo si tu presupuesto es bajo y quieres comer rico.

Delicious!

I really enjoyed every bite of my food here. I had a variety of things from the buffet and it was an ideal mix between vegetables and treat things like mock meats/ stir fried jackfruit. The spring rolls were yummy and the bun was delicious! This is so much nicer than all of the equivalent ‘chay’ buffet places I’ve tried around SE Asia. Also had a bottle of soya milk which I think was home made, it tasted like the traditional fermented-y soy milk which is basically the flavour of tofu, I enjoyed it!

Pros: Variety, Cheap, Nice tasting food!!

This is the real vegan deal!

The best buffet we’ve had in Vietnam. If you like mock meats done right this place is for you. Non of these rubbery stuff you can sometimes find. We’ve been eating here everyday.

Pros: Lots of options , Cheap, Traditional Vietnamese food

Bon, copieux et pas cher !

Tous les plats sont vegan, on peut choisir entre menu et buffet. Je mangeais pour moins d'un euro !! C'est super bon, même si tout le personnel ne sait pas parler en anglais, on arrive facilement à se faire comprendre 😊.

Super, low-key, affordable. Recommended!

Phenomenal place. Low-key vegan restaurant serving up authentic Vietnamese cuisine at a very affordable, local price. (A 3-course lunch with a drink will cost under VND 100,000.) Highly recommended.

Friendly easy place in the boisterous rush of the evening

Great respite from the evening crowds, pop down the alley, don't be shy! Great value and cool group of women running it. Probably the only vege restaurant I've been in where there were three single white dudes, and then two white dudes at the other table.

Pros: Great value, Transparent pricing, Quick

Vegan! Cheap! Plastic free

definitely my go-to whenever i’m in Hoi An! Various choices of food and they’re all so good! 30k/plate full of rice with 4 different choices of side dish!
And they have been stop using plastic straw or plastic bag for take-away!

Lovely cheap Eatery

Good menu, food tastes great and prices are pretty good. What you would expect from a Eatery, flavours are varied with different mock meats and veggies. The side broth they serve with every meal is also good. One thing I really liked is their homemade chilli sambal.

Pros: Lots of options, Cheap

Cons: None

Incredible Tasty Vegan Food

I went here for lunch and was not disappointed at all. The prices are extremely reasonably and the variety of options were impressive. I had a huge plate of delicious food for just a few dollars. The mock meat was some of the best I've had in asia and the staff were very friendly. I would probably eat here everyday if I was in Hoi An for a while. Definitely check this place out for some amazing vegan food and to support some locals.

Pros: Amazing mock meat, So cheap, Authentic and good variety of food.

Très bonne cuisine Viet « de rue »

Pour manger de la bonne cuisine Viet pour 3 fois rien, cette adresse dans une ruelle est plus qu’à recommander.
Dans un cadre de cantine on se fait un vrai plaisir.
Tout est fait sur place, les banh bao vegan sont très bon. Le lait de soja homemade est délicieux.
On s’y fait donc un très bon repas de cuisine locale pour moins de 5€ pour deux avec les boissons.

Pros: 100 % vegan, Prix, Accueil

מפוצץ שמן ולא טעים

האוכל מוגש לא חם מבופה והם לא הסכימו לחמם לנו אותו. היה מפוצץ שמן ולא טעים.

Great food

The food is amazing. A bit more pricier than in other local eateries but well worth it. I paid aroud 55 for a plate full of delicious mock meats with rice and vegetable.
There a tv which sometimes plays vegan news from all over the world, so dinner there also gave me some hope for the world.
And another great surprise was that they had their own steel straws - and that's very rare in Vietnam!
Must visit when in Hoi An.

Pros: Great buffet, Own straws, TV with vegan news

Cons: You have to point at food hidden behind a cage
