Delicious Vietnamese and Tons of Vegan Options

I was thrilled to find this place in Seaside, along a strip where most of the best family-owned Asian and Mexican restaurants are in the Monterey area.

Before I saw the menu I asked if they had vegan Pho. The very nice and helpful and vegan-friendly staff explained to me that Vietnam is very used to vegan cooking because of the Buddhist population there. (I had traveled to Vietnam as a meat-eater and never realized this.)

I was so excited to see the page on their menu with a long list of vegan options--so many that I couldn't decide. Including a lot of Vietnamese dishes I'd never heard of before.

I ordered the Tau Hu Mieng Chien Gion (Crispy tofu strips served with dipping sauce), and the sauce was amazing. And for my main dish I had Mi Hoanh Thanh Chay (stuffed wonton in vegetable broth).

Looking back at the menu now as I write this it looks like some of the menu items on the vegan page have "egg noodles," so that's a minus. But there are still many great options to choose from.

Pros: Many vegan options, Delicious food and big portions, friendly staff

Cons: Some dishes on vegan menu have "egg noodles"
