Good vegan Vietnamese food - Edit
Finally, a Vietnamese where you can order any dish even as a vegan without having to watch out for hidden ingredients. We come here almost every week to order takeout. We've tried a few things on the menu and like some more, some less. But our number 1 is definitely the rice noodles with soy meat - super tasty! Unfortunately, we have experienced several times that during the actual opening hours, even after several attempts, no one answers the phone.

Maybe lunch - Edit
I went on a Sunday night and it was pretty quiet. They offer a lunch buffet which might be a better option.
Read moreStaff were really nice and the food was okay. I had spring rolls which were plentiful if a little oily.
I had a noodle dish for the main (recommended) and it disappointing. It had mock meat and veg but I was really not sure what it was meant to be taste-wise.
A decent option.
Pros: Staff, Chojce
Cons: A little bland , Oily

good vietnamese food - Edit
The interior, as other reviews mention already, is a bit frumpy. But it's clean and bright, so not a bad atmosphere to eat in. Buffet was available, but it's quite a small selection. I chose the appetizer salad, the rice noodle soup and the dessert.
Read moreThe salad was definitely the best part. The soy meat was cut into fine strips and meshed well with the greens. For all cilantro-haters: You get asked if you want cilantro on your food (I love cilantro though)! The soup was nice, quite a big portion with two different kinds of soy meat and those fake shrimp. Sprouts, mint, Thai basil, lime and chilli were served on the side. Nobody told me what to do with that so I just threw it all into the soup and felt a bit awkward about that. Loved the dessert, which is made from coconut milk, mung beans and tapioca pearls.
The staff was very friendly and quick.

Had summer rolls, spring rolls and “coconut paradise” curry. The summer rolls were tasty but a bit chewy. Spring rolls were really good. Curry was decent.

Lecker, Frisch, Freundlich - Edit
Ich war nun schon zweimal hier und kann auf jeden Fall die Sommerrollen, den Salat (Nr. 1) und das Reisgericht mit Kokos Curry (Nr. 10) empfehlen.
Read moreDie Sommerrollen - 4 Stück an der Zahl - sind mit Reisnudeln, Minze, Vleisch und Salat gefüllte Reisblätter. Dazu gibt es einen sehr leckeren pikant-süßen Dip mit Erdnüssen.
Der Salat ist zwar als Vorspeise gelistet, aber mir reicht er alle mal als Hauptgang. Es ist wirklich eine gute Portion! Neben Vleisch sind auf dem Salat auch noch Röstziebeln, Erdnüsse und Krupuk oder wie diese "Krabben"Chips heißen ^^ Das Dressing ist EssigSüßlich lecker mit einer leichten Schärfe.
Das KokosReis Gericht ist eine riesige Portion! In einer großen Schüssel ist die Kokos"Suppe" mit (Süß)Kartoffeln, Tofu und anderem Gemüse - leicht scharf! Dazu in einer kleineren Schüssel der Reis. Finde ich sehr gut, so kann man das Gericht auch ohne Reis bestellen, wenn man mag oder kann sich seine Reisportion selbst abmessen.
Die Mangoschorle ist ebenfalls lecker und der einzige Nachtisch der Karte ist zum .. sorry .. niederknien. Evtl bin ich leicht zu beeindrucken, aber diese Kombination aus Mungobohnen, Tapioka, Kokosmilch im Glas und dazu gesalzene Erdnüsse ist einfach genial.
Die Einrichtung des Lokals ist schlicht und hell, aber das ist OK und man riecht nachher auch nicht nach Fett oder so, wie es nach manch anderen Restaurantbesuchen ist.
Die Bedienung ist superlieb und schnell.
Ich hab beide Male für 1 x Vorspeise, 2 x Hauptgang, 2 x Getränke und 1 x Nachspeise unter 25 Euro bezahlt. Absolut ok.
Ich kann dieses kleine Restaurant nur empfehlen!
Pros: frisch, günstig, lecker
Cons: nix!

great authentic Vietnamese restaurant - Edit
Thoi Lai Quan is a Vietnamese restaurant. All is vegan except the condensed milk for the coffee and honey. We started with two fresh summer rolls filled with soy meat, rice noodles, iceberg lettuce, and mint. Also, two fried springs rolls filled with vegetables and soy meat (4.50 euros for four spring rolls). The sweet and salty peanut sauce was delicious. We also had “Green garden” (7.50 euros). It came with tofu, soy meat, many vegetables roasted in soy sauce, onions, and fresh cilantro. And we shared “Coconut Paradise” (7.90 euros). It came with tofu, sweet potatoes, curry, peanuts, fried onions, and fresh coriander. What a great and delicious combination! There is a buffet offered from Tuesday to Saturday from 12:00-16:00 for 6.90 euros.

Mittagstisch ganz ok - Edit
Sehr klein und über die Woche Recht leer. Bisher haben wir nur das Mittagstisch Angebot genutzt und ich muss sagen, dass es jeden Tag wohl Recht ähnlich ist und man wissen muss, was einem schmeckt, denn einige Gerichte sind etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig. Die kartengerichte klingen definitiv sehr lecker!

tasty + affordable vegan food - Edit
I really like this Restaurant. The food is fresh and yummy! I like both: the buffet and the a la card food. The owners are super nice and friendly.
Read moreMy favorites are: Sommerrollen, Bin Thit Nuog Chay and homemade Lemonade or their Tea.
Check out their Facebook Page before visit the Thoi Lai Quan- they let you know if they need to close the Restaurant.

Just okay - Edit
We ate here in the evening - the menu selection was quite varied but all dishes are very focused on meat substitutes, there was nothing more vegetable-based which I found disappointing. The food we chose was ok, fairly flavoursome but nothing spectacular or that we would hurry to return for.

Cons: Service not over-friendly

Good Lunch - Edit
We came here for the lunch buffet on a recent trip to Hamburg. Very casual feel in the afternoon, more like a cafe. Buffet was inexpensive at 6 euro and although the food wasn't mind blowing, it was .o.k. There was a courgette soup, rice, several dishes containing tofu, other meat substitutes, or just veg. I ate quite a lot, because it tasted nice and I could pick and choose. We arrived at 1pm on a Thursday, and there was only another couple in there, but the food was a bit lukewarm - could do with a better warming system. I'm not sure what the evening a la carte menu is like, but for a cheap, filling vegan lunch, this did the trick.

Different and nice - Edit
We ate the lunch buffet and were both very satisfied. Yes, everything is very mild and light, but they have condiments on the table and you can adjust the food to your taste. We both had second helpings from the buffet, but did not feel wheight down as it is the case with richer food. The price is unbeatable and the atmosphere is simple, clean and friendly.

not as good as expected - Edit
If you are used to the choice of great Vietnamese restaurants in Berlin, you will be very disappointed. The food tastes mediocre. At least we got full.

Best vegan offer in Hamburg - Edit
I've already became a regular customer and I bring my friends with me - for 5,90 you get a buffet which includes a daily soup, rice, and 6 different dishes, most of them with tofu or saitan, probably the best vegan offer in Hamburg. The menu is also quite cheap, but I went there only during day time when you get the buffet deal (even of Saturday, which is quite remarkable). I can't remember seeing cheaper prices in Berlin as well. The food is quite good and fresh (no gourmet, but still very enjoyable and you can try more then one dish) - the buffet if being refilled constantly.
Read moreIt's important to say that the buffet is completely vegan each time. I haven't memorized the menu but I can't remember seeing a dairy product there - so vegans, come and help fill up this place because it doens't seem like they have too many customers, and it is one of the only vegan places in easten-Hamburg, so I'll be very disappointed if they'll have to close down.
Pros: Best value, Buffet with a good variety, In eastern Hamburg
Cons: Decoration is not their strongest side

Superb Food - Edit
Loved the evening menu here. Don't be deterred if you miss the lunch buffet. It's quiet in the evenings, but the food is delicious. Not overly spiced, delicate, carefully prepared by the Vietnamese chef. Lovey, clean, fresh restaurant. Very close to the U3 line too!

Authentic and delicious! - Edit
Thoi Lai Quan serves a range of Vietnamese vegetarian and vegan dishes. Not only is the food very tasty and reasonably priced, but also very authentic. I have lived in Vietnam for quite a while and of the many Vietnamese restaurants I have been to in Germany, Thoi Lai Quan offers the most delicious and authentic vegetarian/vegan food. Try e.g. the Bun Thit Nuong Chay (don't be surprised, it is meant to be served lukewarm) or the Bun Bo Hue and the Vietnamese iced coffee. Service is nice and friendly, too. In addition to the regular a la carte menu, lunch buffet is offered Mon-Sat, 11am to 4 pm, which I haven't had the chance to try yet.

decent food for budget price - Edit
Nice little place with a lunch buffet, due to its small size perhaps not the most exuberant selection to choose from, depends on your expectations. We went there one mid-week afternoon between 15h and 16h hours and they were still restocking the buffet for us even though the place wasn't exactly busy any longer, which we thought was nice. We enjoyed the food and thought it was tasty (but it wasn't very hot/spicy if that's what you are after) and left with a full tummy, thinking that those 6 Euros per head were well spent.

Hier is(s)t man vegan. - Edit
Die Inneneinrichtung erinnert leider mehr an einen Imbiss, aber es sitzt sich sehr bequem, es ist supersauber und das Essen ist der Hit. Das Thoi Lai Quan lohnt allemal einen Besuch. Deshalb lasst Euch nicht durch Äußerlichkeiten abschrecken. Das Schöne ist, dass durch die Werbung auch Vegetarier angezogen werden. Es gibt durchweg vegane Gerichte, die nicht nur preislich top sind, sondern auch schnell und lecker serviert werden.
Read moreWir werden immer, wenn wir mit Hamburgs U-Bahn unterwegs sind, einen Abstecher hierher machen. Absolute Weiterempfehlung!
Pros: Veganes Essen - Superlecker, Preis, Sauberkeit
