Delicious food and amazing service

The menu was extensive, offering both vegan and vego dishes. Located in an easy to reach location, would highly recommend getting the chocolate a fruit fondue as a dessert. Run by a mother and son who are very kind.

Pros: Loads of vego vegan options, Cheap dishes , Easy to locate and close to river

Cons: Some dishes are a tad small

Best meal in Vietnam

There was a sign saying vegan at the front so it was very easy to find! English menu was available and I tried the Hoi An specialty Cao Lau noodles and the steamed bun which were both delicious.

Pros: All vegan options , English menu, Clean space

amazing!!!

If you are vegan, you MUST visit at least once. The owner/chef Linh is the most kind and beautiful person I have met so far in Vietnam. We did a cooking class with her, and she taught us all about the ingredients she uses, as well as the processes she goes through to create all the items on the menu. Everything is made from scratch. We came here everyday during our 4 days in Hoi An, getting to know Linh, and she treated us like family (even served us a special dish off menu). Give this place a go! You won't regret it😄

Pros: everything is vegan, home made , delicious

The BEST vegan restaurant in hoian, a MUST VISIT

Linh is an amazing cook and her vegan cooking class is a mindblowing experience for anyone looking to learn a new way to cook vegan. Her prices are very fair and she is so lovely! The first vegan restaurant in Hoian is a must do experience when coming through. It's in beautiful ancient town and very welcoming. Check it out!

Tasty food, a bit small portions

Had spring rolls, some local dish I can’t remember the name of, steamed bun and some salad. Everything was really good although the portions could have been a bit bigger and a bit cheaper for a place like this.

great food!

The owner is very friendly and knowledgeable about creative vegan food.

Kept coming back for the steamed buns which are excellent!

You must try her speciality dish, which is salad rolled in a soft crispy kind of paratha like bread with orange mayo and salsa on the side. It's a bit more than the other dishes on the menu but well worth it !

The dumpling soup is also delicious

A bit disappointed that we never got to try the vegan burger with cashew and lime mayo. It seems like every time we went there it was already gone even if we tried to get there early.

It is also a shame that her cooking class is pretty basic. We would have loved to learn how to make some of her more creative dishes.

Still a must visit if you like vegan food cooked with love and passion

Cons: still uses plastic straws when she has bamboo ones

2nd home during my stay in Hoi An

I've been in Hoi An for 2 weeks now and went to this place numerous times alone or with different friends - everyone loved it
Tried almost everything of the menu and so far everything was super good.
My favourites are the dumpling soup and noodles with mock meat (with peanut sauce 3).
Also did the cooking class here - amazing. Cannot recommend it enough. Might do it again with friends =)
The owner is lovely. Always super friendly and up for a chat.

Pros: Fully vegan, fair prices

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal here tonight, especially the wontons and spring rolls. The lovely friendly vegan owner told us she has been running the business for 30 years, after taking it over from her Mother.

Pros: Vegan, Well priced food and drink, incl alcohol. , Friendly family business

Cheap, convenient location.

I came to this family-run restaurant 3 times. It’s perfectly located in the old town but not with old town prices. It has a huge menu with desserts as well. Everything we tasted was delicious incl. the desserts.

Decent dinner

I had dinner here last night. I had tofu with lemongrass and tomato sauce. The flavors of the dish were good, although the lemongrass bits int the sauce made for a slightly strange texture. Still enjoyable overall. It’s worth checking out if you’re nearby.

The best in Hoi An

I ate here almost every day I was in Hoi An (12 days). The prices are very reasonable, the owner is so sweet, and the food is delicious. My favorite part is she makes fresh soy milk every day so you can enjoy a cappuccino or a hot chocolate, which is rare in Vietnam. Plus, they make their cocktails very strong.

Highly recommend

We had a very enjoyable meal here. It was very tasty. Service was excellent. Chilli sauce made by the owner was bang on. Wide choices in the menu. We had a tofu dish with a lemon grass and tomato sauce, fish tofu, dumpling soup, mock meat selection and noodles. The tofu and mock meat dishes were so yummy. Would definitely return.

Pros: Very good menu choice, very tasty, reasonable prices (40k mark)

Cons: None

Tasty, basic and honest

The owner Lyn is a nice, very open minded vegan living person thus her cooking class is highly recommended. The food is tasty, basic (non European adapted, fancy fusion kitchen as you can find in the old city) and with home made ingredients ( coconut milk, soya sauce and even the peanut oil).

Pros: The owner Lyn, Home made ingredients

I love this place ❤️

During our stay to Hoi An we ate there everyday. The food is cheap, tastes amazing and the lady who owns the restaurant is adorable. You should definitely talk to her, she speaks English and she is very kind. I would definitely recommand the cao lau and the soup!

Pros: Excellent food, Cheap, Friendly owner

Cons: None, None, None

Dissapointing

This place was extremely disappointing. After all the great reviews, I thought this would be an enjoyable meal but that was not so. Like some of the negative reviews I found, the food is indeed basic. The prices are not very competitive compared to some places with amazing food (Binh Hien). My Bread with Bean Sauce meal was pictured with a hearty bread, some kind of a purée, and topped with beans. What I got was a piece of basic white bread with some canned-type beans thrown on top. Just see the picture. They offer a cooking class here and it’s safe to say I’m not going to consider that. It seems more likely they need to take a cooking class themselves.

Cons: Value, Quality

Hi Freds, I was there twice: yes it is a basic place (and doesn't claim anything superior) but very tasty compared to many other veg. restaurants in Vietnam, not very cheap but also not expensive, regarding the fact she prepares everything in her kitchen: coconut milk, soya sauce even peanut oil... I am a good vegan cook and run a restaurant. Today I attended here the cooking class with Lyn. It was very basic, easy and full of good tastes. So I don't understand how you can judge the course based on a baguette without having attended the class. And if your baguette was that bad why haven't you said anything in the restaurant and wrote this unreflective message via social media around the corner. Your review is just unfair & too hard!

Went here for lunch and had a good meal. Owner was knowledgeable enough to offer me a gluten free meal. Rice pancake was good.
