Das Essen war einfach großartig! Beim Getränk konnte man etwas das Pulver rausschmecken.

Amazing :-)

Apart from the food, which was just great, it is worth mentioning that the atmosphere in the somewhat hidden restaurant is so calm, clean and lovely. A real oasis for escaping the loud city of Ho Chi Minh. The portions are generous, fair priced (50.000 per meal) and diverse😄

Pros: Calm and relaxing atmosphere, Fresh food, Cheap

Cons: Drinks could be more diverse :-)

Pour le prix, l'atmosphère et la qualité de la nourriture, le détour en vaut la peine. Trois options sont offertes et les trois en valent la peine.

Very fresh, great spring rolls

They only offer 3 different meals a day, which contributes to the freshness! The spring rolls were very tasty and the option to choose between different vegetables/fruits for your juice is nice.

Great spot for coffee, breakfast, lunch

Nice café-style place located in a cramped alleyway. Small menu that changes daily with a few fixed items. Not all vegan; some dishes appear to include egg and they also have milk for coffee, but they understand vegan and they were able to make everything vegan the few times I came.

Spring rolls are top notch, and I'd especially recommend the spring roll noodles. Coffee is also really nice, and it's all at a good price. Definitely recommend if you're in the area.

Thank you for your very good review. But we are not sure if you review the correct restaurant? Because we only serve vegan food, we have never used eggs since we opened the restaurant. All our food is 100% vegan, always. 💚☘️🥬

Amazing. Must eat!

Great veg'n place in a small alley, near the crazy walking street. Look for the colourful graffiti art, at the entrance of the alley.

The food on offer changes. Represented me with a drinks menu and then three laminated cards for the food. I chose Ban Hue soup, and a Vietnamese coffee (plant milk is available - coconut or cashew). They also gave me an iced jasmine tea.

It's so wonderful to have a place like this, where I don't have to explain what I don't eat.

Pros: Yum yum yum, Vegan, except condensed milk in coffee, Plant milk is available (coco, cashew)

Cons: Nothing.

A "go to" place in District 1

This is a great place to get affordable (50k) vegan food that tastes great. They have a daily dish as well as one dish available every day. This allows for some variety and the dishes are sufficient and filling.

Updated from previous review on 2022-11-02

Pros: Reasonable price, Delicious , Clean environment

Cons: A limited, yet rotating, menu.

Spring rolls from heaven

We came here for breakfast and had the rice noodles with spring rolls and tofu. Holy [censored] the spring rolls are delicious af. Spicy but not too spicy. The little place offers three meals per day for little money. Must try when you’re in Saigon.

Adorable little hideout

Nice, adorable little vegan cafe in a tiny, hidden alley way. Their food menu seem to change everyday with 2-3 options available. Really cute humble looking place. I came at 2pm on a Saturday and there wasn’t anyone else. The food is amazing, there’s free wifi. Main dish cost 50k, coffee 22k. Super reasonably priced and great portion sizes.

Great coffee and delicious food

I believe the only non vegan item on the menu is the coffee with cows milk. I had the iced coffee with cashew milk and a Bún Chà Giò noodle which is a cold vermicelli bowl with fried spring rolls served with vegan fish sauce (apparently made with kombucha). They also served me a complimentary iced green tea. The prices are reasonable which means really inexpensive according to US standards. It was absolutely delicious.

So nice! Clean and quiet, mostly vegan eatery with a daily combo set meal and a really good selection of vegan-friendly drinks. I tried fried rice, bitter gourd soup, fried spring rolls, carrot beetroot ginger juice and cashew milk hot coffee — everything was perfect. The whole place is very well-designed, has a peaceful vibe, tucked away in the lanes off Bui Vien. Wi-Fi is 100Mbit/s, there are power sockets. For the quality, the price is very low. Loved it!

Simple but good!!

2 vegan options per day to choose from, only a few speak English but everyone is very friendly. Good price value. Evening time often only one option left, not really a con as it avoids food waste too😄went back there

Pros: Vegan, affordable

Cons: Only two options, evening time often only one

Thank you so much for the kind words, we are happy to hear that you understand our concept. We don't wanna waste food and at the same time wanna make the most reasonable prices, that can only be done by increasing after demands. And another thing is that we wanna make the taste of homemade food, so we cook all dishes daily to make sure the taste and quality are the best. Soon we will make 100% vegan and authentic Banh Mi, from vegan mayo, pate made from nuts and mushrooms and homemade tofu sausage. 💚🌿💚

Great food & lovely staff!

A wonderful little restaurant tucked away behind the main tourist streets. The food was delicious and the whole place just had a really nice vibe.

We actually gave way too much money by accident (still getting used to the crazy big notes) and the cook managed to track us down in a nearby shop to give us our money back!
It was incredibly kind, so thank you 😊 ❤️

Inexpensive Tasty Vegan Food

My friend recommended this hidden vegan place to me when she found out I was going to visit Saigon. It was a great surprise when I walked in, the place was nicely decorated and very clean. They have a different vegan dish for each day of the week. I tried Pho soup on Sunday, it was so tasty so I came back the next day to try Curry, and I was not disappointed. I also liked their iced coffee with milk, and had passion fruit juice to go.
I would definitely come back next time we visit Saigon.

Cozy place

We enjoyed staying in this place, because it's a small, relaxed oasis in the middle of the tourist area. Hidden in a small alley you can have a daily changing lunch dish. Because of Tet our noodle soup was very basic, but ok for this price (35K in the tourist area is a good price for lunch). We also had an ice orange-carrot juice (29K) and a coconut coffee (35 K), which could be a bit sweeter 😅
All in all a nice place, with friendly stuff and a cozy atmosphere, which is much better, than most of the other places around in the tourist area.

A charming find.

What a wonderful little place! It’s a little oasis of tranquillity, just a few metres off the backpacker trail down an alley, but far enough to feel as if you’re in another, much less stressful world. When I visited, there were two dishes on offer: vegetable noodles and vegetable fried rice. The drinks menu was much more comprehensive, and features some interesting local beverages, including one made from pomelo flowers. I had the noodles, which came with a spring roll and fried tofu. They were similar to what you might find on the street, but vegan, and at a street price too – I was quite surprised they cost only VND 35,000, considering how beautifully designed the restaurant was. I also had the excellent coffee, which came with vegan condensed milk – the first time I have seen this – and extra hot water, a nice touch. Again, this made it seem very authentic. I was on the way to catch a bus, and so the early opening hours were much appreciated. The owner assured me everything she uses is vegan, and, although her English isn’t strong, she is very welcoming and has a great concept – good, simple food at good prices, in lovely surroundings. UPDATE: some of the menu items are NOT vegan, such as the coconut ice cream. (Apparently they're working on a vegan version...) This isn't shown on the menu, so you need to ask.

Updated from previous review on 2020-01-04

Pros: Lovely ambience, Value for money, Early opening

Cons: Some items not vegan.

Thank you very much for being the first customer to review us on HappyCow, your review helps us a lot, many customers have been visiting us since then.
And your feedback regarding the menu, we have made a new menu with clear information about non vegan drinks.
