FAVORITE! - Edit
This is my favorite restaurant, my kids' favorite restaurant, and the place where we get a ton of bahn mi when we have a crowd of vegan and picky-about-being-a-meat-eater family and friends around. ChuMinh is the best. Plus, the nicest people.

She offers free meals to homeless on Sundays. How generous is that? Great role model of generosity and community service! Thank you so much for the love!

Delicious!!! - Edit
Quick service and great menu! We tried the Veggie Pho with homemade tofu “ham” which had a savory flavor, mushrooms, carrots, and wheat noodles. Also got the spring rolls which had great flavor and a ton of vegetables in them. We also got the bao which was very tasty but had a paper film stuck the bottom we couldn’t get off, so we just had to eat the top portion of the bao.

The spicy tofu bahn mi is wonderful, as I’m sure everything on the menu is. This is an all vegan business worth supporting. Please do.

A Culinary Sanctuary - Edit
This cozy little spot is a real gem. The staff is so warm and friendly and the air is filled with delicious aromas. We had the Pho which was wonderful and scrumptious. The Stir Fried Rice Noodle was also amazing and served in generously hot and delectable. The Autumn Rolls were a symphony of flavors and aromas and the Bánh Tét (Sticky Rice with Mung Bean) blew my mind. I’m going back here as often as possible.

Great vegan lunch buffet! - Edit
I was on on my way to a different vegan restaurant and saw a sign for this place. I decided to take a look, and I think I made the right choice.
Read moreThey have a huge lunch buffet with at least 10 different items. Some rice, noodles, and a huge assortment of tofu and jackfruit prepared in various ways. This was definitely one of the food highlights of my Seattle trip.
Pros: Lots of options, Extremely friendly staff, Some of the best tofu of my life
Cons: Small and not very modern

PLEASE try this place - Edit
This place is small and not the fanciest but it’s proprietor is the nicest woman ever and the food is amazing. They serve free food to the hungry on Sundays and have a buffet that can be ordered by the pound. The bahn mi are delicious and service is relatively quick. I’ll be back here whenever I can be!
Read morePros: Everything is vegan and delicious, Friendly happy staff

Awesome awesome place!! - Edit
Wow, this place is the best. The staff are SO unbelievably friendly, they made our visit extra warm and welcoming! I was so happy to have vegan egg rolls after living without them for so long. They were delicious!! I also had the chow mein which was super yummy. I would highly recommend getting the buffet - it is definitely the best value!! The meals a la carte had large portions but were more expensive than I would usually prefer to pay for a meal.

Unclean and bad smell - Edit
I had high hopes for this place but I was disappointed. It had a horrible smell like something rotting and overall looked unclean. I had a tofu banh mi and it was medicore at best, and tasted off. I threw away most of it because I was afraid of getting sick. I would not try the buffet since everything is uncovered.

Cons: Dirty, smelly

I could live at this restaurant! - Edit
My favorite place to eat, we have only eaten here once as it's thousands of miles away from home but it's my favorite place to eat! If I win the lottery I will meet the owner again :)) Such a kind sweet soul, I had asked if I could have a menu for an art display I'm working on and she offered it to me even though it's a huge menu in an expensive cover!
Read morePros: All vegan!, The amount and taste of the food!, The owner and staff :))

Nope - Edit
Very disappointed, came here cause of the good reviews. The buffet was 16$ a person not 6$ a plate. We weren’t that hungry so we paid by weight and it was almost as much even though we did get a full plates worth. Most everything was dried out and cold. I’m not from here so I don’t know if this was an off day but I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

Overall one of the loveliest places I’ve ever been - Edit
This place has an atmosphere that could put anyone at ease. It is small, quiet, and relaxing. I’ve heard their Banh Mi is amazing- I’ve never tried it because I always get the buffet! An entire vegan Vietnamese buffet- what more could you ask for? The bubble tea is great too (which is saying something, because I work at one of the most famous bubble tea shops in Seattle) and everything is super affordable. It’s run by the most amazing woman I’ve ever met- she is super sweet, generous, and is always wanting to give out extra food or give you discounts if she can. The first time I visited she learned I work in animal rights spheres and offered free catering if I had any nonprofit events coming up. She genuinely cares about her customers and the community. Would definitely recommend coming here if you get a chance!

Delicious, authentic vegan Vietnamese grub - Edit
Lovely little restaurant in the international district. You can order the all you can eat buffet or choose from the main menu. We went for the buffet for $15 and it was amazing. So much choice - seitan meats, tofu, mushrooms and vegetable dishes as well as spring rolls and dessert.
