Amazing food

The claypot sensation... is woah. Amazing flavors. Mostly South East asian foods. Great at creating classic dishes vegan. We eat here almost every Sunday after our dives and love it.

Somewhat Hidden Honolulu Gem

A very welcoming and non-assuming restaurant that while it says Vegetarian, in fact everything on the menu is Vegan. We make it a point to go in for lunch at least once a week but always hope for more! A truly eccentric menu (mostly different Asian dishes, heavily Vietnamese) but with a full page of Pastas and even "chckn" nuggets. It easily can satisfy everyone's taste at a table.
The sizzling Pancake is not to be missed. The Vietnamese sandwich and Philly Sandwich are excellent and don't forget some Thai Iced Tea.
As for people complaining of ambiance, The ambiance is abundant, its just not gentrified.

Pros: Taste and diversity, Friendly and welcoming

Best on the island so far

After a few not so flash meals on the island I was stoked to come here and love everything that I ate and it was so cheap as well. Will definitely be back.

Pros: All the food was amazing, Fully vegan, Cheap

Great place but lacking ambience

We got the rice noodle salad but it only had 1 spring roll. The pancake was a little doughy but could just be that we are used to a lighter version in Australia. Vietnamese roll was our highlight along with the Vietnamese iced coffee. Well priced with free parking out the back.

Sedulous preparation arriving forthwith at a vegan aiguille.

Pleasant food in a somewhat drab establishment with a friendly staff.

Excellent food

I had the clay pot, it was an excellent tasty fulfilling meal. Every bite was satisfying and the vegetables were fresh and cooked to perfection. I’m not a big fan of faux meat, I hesitated ordering this meal because it has faux fish but I loved it. The flan pudding for dessert was smooth and silky. I recommend this place.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Freshly made meals, Yummy

Tasty, large variety of options

This place doesn’t look like much (typical of Honolulu) but the food is great. I live in the neighborhood and eat here often and have enjoyed every dish I’ve tried. I’ve only tried the Asian dishes- none of the pasta options.

Pros: All vegan options, Low key, laid back place, Free parking

Full Vegan Menu!

My mother (vegan), her husband (non-vegan) and I (vegan) decided to try this place out one evening not knowing what to expect. And let me tell you, this place is pretty good! I got the pad Thai (⭐️⭐️ it was not that good and I couldn’t finish eating it) my mom got Chicken Oreganata (⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ this was AMAZING! I finished what she didn’t eat and wished I had ordered this) her husband got the Philly Sandwich (⭐️⭐️⭐️ he said the flavor was great, he just didn’t have much “meat” on there it was more veggies). The waitress didn’t speak English well at all which made it difficult at times. Overall I would definitely come back and eat here again!

Pros: FULL VEGAN MENU

Really good with a massive menu!!

Was a bit nervous to try here as the reviews weren't all great but it was really good!! Their menu is massive so there is literally something for everyone. We had Wonton Noodle Soup and Fried Rice and there were tasty and big portions. Friendly staff and easy parking.

Pros: Huge vegan menu.

Good, not great

We went for dinner and I got a pho-like dish and my wife selected the Pad Thai. Both were good- not great options. The appetizer we selected was a fried shrimp vegan substitute that was actually better than both of the other entree options.

My dish was brutally hot and burned my mouth even after waiting a while to eat. The appetizer, though great, came after my dish was set down. My wife liked her pad Thai though I didn’t find the flavors too impressive. They could definitely spruce up the vibe of the place.

They have 60 items to select from, which is good if you want a long list, but a lot to select from without any highly unique tastes

Pros: Very friendly staff, Tons of options for different cuisines , Local

Cons: Mediocre atmosphere , Long wait to get food , Unoriginal dishes

Good tasting food

I think I’ve only had their pad Thai but it tastes very good.
The only thing for me is that I don’t feel very comfortable when I’m eating here. It’s way too quiet for my liking. If they played some music, it would create nice ambiance for sure.

Pros: ALL VEGAN!, Gluten free options

Cons: Too quiet, On the oily side, Nothing striking (but good!)

Unique

The food is good with interesting flavors. I don’t tolerate meat analogues well though, so thus the 3 star. But if you are going out with meat eaters this might be a good choice. If you are looking for ambience you won’t find it here. But still quaint and clean. No alcohol if that important to you.

Pros: Unique flavors, Good place to take non vegans for a “meat” taste, Very fresh vegetables

Cons: Use of many meat analogues , Service seemed a little slow

Simple Vietnamese Cafe

This is not the place to come if you’re a foodie. Simple food from French fries to Italian to Vietnamese. The oil they use is not great. Two stars for food, three for being all vegan.

Pros: Vegan
