Delicious and healthy - Edit
All the food is health oriented, fresh, and tasty. Entirely vegan. On my first visit I tried the charcoal health shot and the summer sandwich. Tasted so good and light. I had to come back again the next day 😂. Tried the go green bowl the banoffee pie, and the raw spirulina ball. All of these items were raw and tasted amazing. Would recommend to those seeking a health conscious vegan diet!

Very chill place - Edit
We came here once just for a drink, but it’s a place I would definitely return too! The vibe is chill, the AC is running and they have nice tables to work, seems like a good vibe for solo travellers. We came here and had a fresh coconut (great option) as well as their passion smoothie, which was very delicious. The smoothie was very thick and cold, it was nice to get some fruits into my system. They seemed to have nice food options which I will come back to try later!
Read moreCame back to try the Vietnamese milk coffee and a cream cheese sandwich. Both tasted great!
Came back a third time. Had iced guava tea (mind you they just give you a glass full of ice and hot tea, the first cup you poor will be cold, the second hot unless you ask for more ice!). The katsu burger was absolutely amazing. I was sceptical to get a burger at such a ‘healthy place’ but it was downright amazing and the best burger I had in a long time.

Nice spacious cafe - Edit
Well air conditioned and modern cafe. We had a fresh coconut water and a passion fruit smoothie. Both were very good, but for some reason the fresh coconut water was exceptional. In general I found coconuts in Vietnam good, but this place had the best.

my least favorite meal in HCMC - Edit
It’s ok, it’s a western place mainly. I regret spending a meal here. I got the Mediterranean bowl. It was mediocre. I also got a coffee. I was really happy when I first arrived but didn’t feel very satisfied or impressed.

Amaaaazing food - Edit
We had a Back to the roots smoothie bowl that they kindly shared in two different bowls so my husband and I could eat separately. The bowl was absolutely delicious!!! The menu has so many delicious options! We will definitely come back here again before we leave Vietnam.

Another healthy-yougi-BaliBabe inspired place with cool bowls and pokes. If you are a fun of those- you will enjoy! Pretty pricy though

Great food, chilled vibes - Edit
Came here for brunch. The extra fancy banana toast was delicious if a little sweet toppled with blueberries and dragon fruit. My partner has the Cacao Dream smoothie bowl which seemed fine in texture, not watery as others have said and was a decent size. The cappuccino was served in a takeaway Grande cup which wasn't what I was expecting but good all the same. Good service, chilled vibes.

Fresh ingredients, friendly service, delicious food - Edit
This place was awesome and exactly what I needed after eating a bunch of junk over the holidays. I had the falafel salad bowl and it was super clean and fresh, with really high-quality ingredients. The passion fruit cheesecake was also fantastic — such a treat.
Read moreThe servers were incredibly kind, friendly, and very attentive. It is a bit higher price point than some vegan spots, but the quality of the ingredients absolutely reflects that. Highly recommend!

Have a sweet dream < 3 - Edit
Visited October 20th, 2025. Found it here on HC.
Read moreFound three vegan places close to Central Palace Hotel, this one felt the most appealing.
After a short neon drenched tropical evening rain walk, we found it on a busy moped filled Saigon street.
What we found upstairs was a clean, modern, welcoming and pleasant health focused vegan place with very kind and attentive staff.
I was super impressed also by their strong values (like their food being: trans fats free / processed sugar free / no MSG or additives / cholesterol free) and their extensive menu, alongside a meticulous description of protein / calories / carbs / fat units for each dish. Impressive!
Tab notes:
Main:
- Katsu Tartare Burger (Let's Plant Katsu, beetroots bun, red coleslaw, plant-based tartare sauce, lettuce, shiso) 148k dong
- Moringa Potato Wedges (Potato wedges sprinkled with salt, moringa, parsley, and chives, served with plant-based aioli) 68k dong
- Cacao Dream (Cacao, peanut butter, banana, mango, coconut milk, orange, granola (oats, nuts, seeds, dates, and raisins), coconut flakes, peanut butter chia pudding, mint, lime, blueberries & fresh fruits) 128k dong
Drinks:
- Matcha Coconut (on ice) 80k dong
Dessert:
- Raw Banoffee Pie Cake (Coconut, cashew, lucuma, cinnamon, cacao, sea moss, oats) 78k dong
The cacao dream bowl was super fresh and crisp, very tasty.
The burger was amazing, dripping of delicious tartare sauce and perfectly accompanied by the moringa wedges.
A supreme Saigon experience.
Super friendly staff - super delicious food - super recommended!

Must try while in Saigon - Edit
Outstanding food, great Location, and beautiful and relaxed atmosphere. They make everything in-house except the vegan cheese (Swees Cheese) and plant based meat which they import from Thailand. Please open up more locations 🙏😍

Nice Restaurant - Edit
I was overdue for a falafel and/or a burger hit when we stumbled onto this restaurant. This place has a really nice falafel bowl and their Impossible Hawaiian Burger is really good too. Friendly staff.

Indeed, and I enjoyed the place so much we went back again yesterday. Light, airy, cool, and comfortable with good food and friendly efficient staff. What’s not to like. I wish them success.

Soo good! - Edit
I chose this place because their menu is allergy aware, and it shows which items are gluten free. It’s very difficult to find this in HCMC, so it was a massive relief to find this place and not be glutened, as happens almost every meal. The falafel bowl was SO good! Even better than expected. The coconut dream cake was unbelievable too 😍 both gluten free. I’ll be ordering again for sure. I know it’s expensive, but the GF label gives me that piece of mind.

Perfect - Edit
So my understanding is that the owners of Roots and iVegan once worked together. Anyways the menus are very similar and so of course roots is delicious. In August they have a limited menu, I’m really looking forward to the full menu from danang next month.

Great cafe in HCMC! - Edit
A really great cafe. It’s a branch of the successful Roots cafe in Da Nang. They have very recently (at the time of writing this) opened in HCMC so they have a slightly smaller menu. The food and drinks are packed full of flavour and very filling as well. Hopefully this place becomes as successful as the original branch in Da Nang!

Lần đầu ăn tại nhà hàng chay - Edit
Lần đầu mình ăn ở nhà hàng này, thật sự mình không ngờ được món Tropical Pitaya lại ngon đến vậy luôn á. Khẩu phần ăn sẽ to hơn bạn nghĩ với giá thành, trong tô smoothies có rất nhiều trái cây, đối với 1 người ít khi ăn chay như mình thì các món smoothies tại đây lại rất dễ ăn. Lớp trái cây được decor bên trên lớp dragon fruit smoothies bên dưới thật sự rất đẹp mắt, bạn nhất định phải thử món này nhe, dễ ăn cực. Love Roots.
