Great menu and surroundings

We loved this restaurant although we visited at a random time so it was lacking in atmosphere. delicious food and great choice. Found it good value for Reykjavik

Pros: Lovely food and choice, Good value

So many choices!

We tried several dishes, but really impressed with the ‘calamari’ and the seitan ‘chicken’. Spring rolls were perfect.

Pros: Helpful staff, Huge menu

Cons: Quite a bit out of town

Subpar

I was looking forward to finally being able to try a Loving Hut since they have so many different options. I've never tried vegan ham or shrimp before so I was pretty excited.

Between 4 of us, we tried their fried dumplings, summer rolls, beef banh mi, pork banh mi, ocean vermicelli, and fried noodles with veg and chicken.

Summer rolls were my favorite thing, and really the only thing I'd recommend getting. I couldn't stomach more than 2 bites of the pork banh mi (the color of the pork was green and off putting).

Dumplings were good and standard. Beef banh mi was marinated in Chinese five spice.

Shrimp in the ocean vermicelli was interesting. Texture was gelatinous (but solid). Chicken in the fried noodles were a little limp and slimy.

Meh.

Pros: Unique, Friendly staff

All in all okay

The burger was delicious, but the ambience was a bit uncomfortable and it's quite a walk away from the center.

Perfect, but be careful abt schedule

The food was omg - wonderful indeed!!! I swear I could eat here every day :). We had Happy summer and Pad Thai. That's why we came here the second day - but the place was closed even if it was the regular time of their working hours... we were so dissapointed... But the food was Unforgetable.

Pros: Very, but VERY good food, Excelet food😄, Ok prices

Cons: It was closed second day we wanted to eat there, It would need a bit of pimping , Staff doesn't speak english

Nice Asian food!

Very nice food, plenty of options, good flavour and abundant portions! And very honest prices too.
The place is not the fanciest but I would recommend it. I'll pay more visits for sure. Also, they open during Mondays, which is a plus😉

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Fair price , Big portions of food

Delicious and fully vegan

There's so much choice and everything looked great! The vegan squid was super crunchy and the pho was delicious (very difficult to eat though!) I will definitely be trying here again before the end of my trip.

Impressed at the selection!

Amazing food! Central to the town and right next to the hotel we were staying at. The canton chicken was the best.

Pros: All vegan, Comfort Asian food, Canton chicken was great

Cons: Banh mi was meh

Great vegan food, very good value

Can always rely on Loving Hut and this one is no exception. Ordered the golden tofu starter and a fake chicken and tofu noodle dish for mains. Came in at about £16, which for Iceland was very good value, especially as the portions was so substantial I ended up taking quite a lot away with me. This branch also had a couple of Beyond burgers on the menu. It’s a bit canteen like - if I had one criticism, it could do with more atmosphere and less bright lighting, but can’t fault it really.

#notmything

Μπορεί κάποιος να πάει και να του αρέσει.. ωστόσο μας φάνηκαν πολυ ψεύτικα τα φαγητά του οι περισσότερες επιλογές του μενού ήταν υποκατάστατα (noshrimp , nochicken, nopork #notmything)
Η σούπα ίσως να ήταν το μόνο που ήταν κοντά στο χαρακτήρα του μαγαζιού αλλά και πάλι γευστικά αδιάφορη
Το tofu cheese croquete ήταν το μόνο που τρωγόταν ευχάριστα
Για το noshrimp tempura και το nochicken kung pao πραγματικά δε θελω να πω τίποτα δε μπορούσαμε να τα φάμε. Ευτυχώς που είχαν λαχανικά και ρύζι και φάγαμε κάτι από το 1 κυρίως μας!
Ο μόνος λόγος για τα 2 αστέρια είναι το ευγενικό προσωπικό και η καθαριότητα στους χώρους του μαγαζιού

All vegan, All fried

The owner is a nice guy who tried he's best to Talk german with us. That was funny. The food was good but unfortunatelly most of the menu is fried. Well, thats typical for asian fast food dishes. The restaurant is a little bit old. It was a cold day and there was only one electrical heater in the big room.

Pros: Complete vegan menü

Cons: Old

Must try in Reykjavik

It is a fully vegan restaurant, so I could eat without doubts about ingredients

Pros: Amazingly tasty food. Our favorite Panang red , Curry and #42 on the menu

Cons: Not really. Just a 15 minute walk from the church., Or take the car, plenty of parking in the plaza

I recommend the crispy tofu

I took my omnivore boyfriend who doesn't like vegetables to Loving Hut, and he loved it!

We shared a crispy tofu starter which was a bit like fried camembert but vegan. Apparently they make their own tofu. Then we both had the Beyond burger.

I was pleased to see that there were several gluten-free options (Loving Hut in London had all of one, last time I looked).

Wheelchair accessible with help - there is a wide door but a moderate step which my power chair struggled with. Also a fully accessible toilet.

Pros: Fully vegan, Wheelchair accessible toilet

Cons: Expensive - but it's Iceland!, Supreme Master TV

Fantastic Seitan Salad

Fresh and tasty and, finally, a very healthy meal on vacation for me. It easy for me to find vegan food…but it’s not always healthy food! LOVE this second location as the other is a far walk from where we are staying!

Updated from previous review on 2021-07-05

Pros: Freshly prepared, Plenty of space , Many options

Cons: Descriptions could be better, Food photos could be larger, All options are Asian influenced (not nec con!)

Superb Food

This was some of the best food we’ve had in a long while. I’d highly recommend here even for non vegan as it’s very tasty. The value for money was good too. Shame they don’t do starters as we’d have been able to have more tastes and flavours.

Pros: Delicious , Tasty, Good vibe

Cons: Should do starters so can try more, Improve English spoken

Tons of Options

They have a huge menu and a little market attached with lots of vegan dry goods. Loved having a huge selection instead of the typical couple of vegan options.

Pros: Lots of options

Cons: None really
