Quan Chay Dam - Co Dam

Overall rating: 4.0 stars 8 Reviews
Family-run eatery where you choose from many veggies and soymeats dishes, rice, and noodle soup. Located in small alley in town center that is difficult to find. It's between Le Loi and Hai Ba Trung. Take the alley mid-block to the south, toward the river, from Phan Chu Trinh for 30 meters and find the restaurant on the right. Price: Inexpensive more-less

Cheap And Nice

3 Posted on 01 / 28 / 2013

Hidden down a small alley as mentioned by others. Small menu for orders, or buffet available. Limited English, but freshly cooked and very nice. Also extremely cheap. Fairly standard in cleanliness for small restaurants in Vietnam. Not too dirty. meals for two people came to 45000 dong. For that price, it was awesome

Pros: Tasty, Cheap!, Friendly People
Cons: Hard To Find, Minimal Menu

cheap & tasty but prices vary

We ate there twice and liked it. You can get a plate with rice and choose from a variety of mockmeat or vegetables dishes, just say "com chay". Soups are available as well but apparently only if you get there early enough (probably before noon). We also tried Cau Lau, a special noodle dish of Hoi An.

Prices for "com chay" varied between 15 000 - 20 000 dong (though a group of 4 tourists next to us paid as much as 30 000 for a plate). We couldn't figure out why. You might wanna try to agree on a price before you start loading up your plate.

Pros: cheap, variety of dishes to choose from, nice staff
Cons: prices vary

All right

Ate here on a past trip to Vietnam, here's my review for happycow. This restaurant is situated in a small alley, so you have to look for it. Food is served during limited hours, so better get there on time. I liked it all right. It's a good find for Vietnam.

Pros: nice people, good choices, vegan
Cons: cleanliness issue

I went here in Feb 2011. If you have a map, you can work out the lane to go down easy enough. Small family run place. Variety of choices - noodles, fake meat, salads. You load up your plate and pay.

Pros: cheap

Found this restaurant after reading the reviews on Happy Cow. The staff didn't speak English so we ordered two meals of what they were serving from a warmer thing. They put some rice on the plates, then we pointed at the various fake meats and veges that we wanted to try. The meal also came with a small bowl of bittermelon soup, and whole chillies were available, (although I didn't feel the need).

Pros: cheap, nice selection

A nice little place in a good location - central, but tucked down a quiet alley so you're away from the tourist crowds. This place is *very* budget friendly - almost embarrassingly so. We couldn't find any English translations on the menu, the staff couldn't speak English, and my pigeon Vietnamese drew only blank stares, so we just got two serves of whatever they gave us. The food was all very pleasant though, and the atmosphere was relaxed and friendly.

Pros: Excellent value, Nice location
Cons: No English on menu

Dirt Cheap Tasty Food

4 Posted on 05 / 19 / 2007

This place is a fantastic find for budget eating options. Its in the centre of town, tasty and 100% vegetarian which means you can choose randomly from the menu, which is lucky cause the place lacks in English translation. But what it lacks in communication it makes up for in taste and savings! This is good food, we went back twice and tried the local specialties and various noodle soups. They had fresh mint, yummy noodles, various mock meats, with tasty saucy-soups. Both times lunch for 2 people cost is 12,000 dong! Its not that hard to find just look for number 17 (which is an ally) and its down the ally on the right-hand side. Definatley worth a visit (or in our case 2 or 3). It was also packed with locals, which is always a good sign!

Pros: Delicious Food, Cheap as chips, Chance to try local food
Cons: Communication, Looks budget
