A vegan lunchtime and dinnertime oasis.

Of all the vegetarian restaurants I have experienced in my life, Thanh Van Vietnamese vegan restaurant is my lifetime favorite in the United States. Thanh Van is so authentic -- rather than trying merely to mimic meat-serving Vietnamese restaurants -- that I anticipate that omnivores will also love this restaurant.

Thanh Van is apparently at least one or two years old. The owners speak limited English for me to ask more of their history, which also helps the peacefulness of the experience, because of the quiet we enjoy from our language dynamic. I deeply appreciate all that Thanh Van has done for me, and wish to thank them by encouraging people to visit, while the pho is hot.

Pros: Purely vegan., Amazing food. , Wonderful owners and staff.

Cons: None.

Awesome veg food!

What a great way to warm up on a cold day! Yummy! I had a huge, steamy bowl of Pho so chock full of veggie, noodles, and an assortment of faux meat that I couldn't even finish a third of it! My husband had a gigantic plate of stir fried veggies with faux chicken. The menu is very large. They advertise a buffet, but there were only about 3 things on there that looked like they had been sitting a LONG time. The ample menu more than makes up for this though, and prices are great. This sits INSIDE the mall so if you are using your GPS to find it, it will only take you to the general area. You have to go inside little Vietnamese mall, behind the huge music store. It is well worth the trouble. Also they only take cash.

Pros: Awesome food, Tons of faux meats, Very nice Buddhist couple

Cons: Difficult to find if you are relying on GPS, Buffet was not really a buffet, Cash only

Vegan Pho!

When I am in the mood for great veggie food this is where I go. The place is run by an old Vietnamese Buddhist couple. As far as I can tell the place is completely vegan...but you could eat there and not know it because the menu that they have (I hear they are working on a new one)does not advertise that it is veggie and the couple's English skills are lacking... The traditional Vietnamese cuisine is also so tasty that you might think you are eating meat when you are not. If you want a piping bowl of spicy Pho full of imitation meat that is the best I have ever tasted than this is the place for you!!!
