Vietnamese
Vietnamese menu under the glass of each table. Little English spoken but added an English menu. Order "com" and you will get a nice plate of rice with a variety of veg and some tasty tofu. Mostly vegan, but has yogurt and offers dairy milk for drinks. NOTE: Hours reported to be unreliable, check ahead. Open Mon-Sun 7:00am-8:00pm. Closed every 2nd and 16th of the Lunar Calendar.

Excellent eatery - Edit
Excellent eatery full of locals. Some of the reviews were mixed but we were very happy and will return. The rice comes with vegetables and tofu, the serving is a bit small but it is ridiculously cheap and you can order side vegetables. Comes with a very tasty soup. You can also try a vegan version of the Hue rice cakes, a local speciality.
Read moreWe ate a lot for only 100k for 2 people, you could have a very decent meal for even cheaper. 10k for the tastier spring rolls we had in Vietnam.
Pros: Very cheap, local experience, Tasty, best spring rolls in Vietnam, Open pretty late

Eat with the locals - Edit
This place gets packed during lunar events - full moon and new moon when most locals will eat vegetarian. Super good value, most dishes just 10-15,000. I thought the dishes were just okay but maybe I just ordered the wrong things. The bánh cuon was a bit bland for me.

A chaotic and fun experience - Edit
We went there because the prices were stupid cheap.
Read moreWe ended up loving our experience.
The food is ok, but so cheap it's worth it.
What makes this worth visiting is the local super choatic atmosphere. It makes you feel far from home, and we loved it for it.
7/10, still worth a visit for the experience. 🤪
Pros: Stupid cheap, Very local spot

Nothing special - Edit
Came here for lunch and was not impressed. While everything is ridiculously cheap, you get what you pay for.
Read moreFood was served cold and tasted very average. Service was alright but we had to go to the back a few times to ask for things.
Very minimal experience, and good if you're on a very tight budget; otherwise - there are much better places just down the street for vegan food.
Pros: Everything is extremely cheap
Cons: Food was served cold, Dishes were very basic

Very cheap, okay food - Edit
The place was packed I mean literally full. I was the only foreigner I think. The raw spring rolls were nice and the rice was okay but cold. Paid 35k with a drink so that’s insanely cheap!

Super - Edit
Das ist mal ein richtiges vietnamesisches Lokal.
Read moreSuper hektisch und auch etwas chaotisch. Aber Mega essen und die Preise sind unschlagbar.
Wir lieben es mit Einheimischen an einem Tisch zu sitzen.
Wir haben es geliebt und waren jeden Tag teilweise öfters dort.

Not very tasty - Edit
We ordered a number of dishes- there quite small portions but very cheap so it gives you the opportunity to try lots of things. The food was all cold but tasted ok. We ordered a small hot pot- it was very big but unfortunately I really strongly disliked the broth and couldn’t eat any of it. I’m not sure what the ingredient is that makes it so unpalatable to me. Husband didn’t like it much either.

Die Bewertung hält, was sie verspricht - Edit
Ich war gestern dort und es gab eine so große Auswahl an veganen Gerichten, einfach großartig. Das Lokal ist einfach und die Gäste international. Ich hatte die landestypische Nudelsuppe, frittiertes Gemüse und Pilze. Superlecker und unfassbar preiswert.

It was ok, but nothing special - Edit
Big choice and very low prices, so you can try many different dishes. They tasted not bad but nothing that special, so I wouldn't come back there.

Tasty food at a low price - Edit
Ate breakfast here a few times, tried rice cakes, noodles, rice; all good tasty chay for quite cheap. Menu on the table with some English on it, but otherwise your English won't be of much use here. Service is not super friendly and can be a bit slow but they get the job done, and the food is worth any hiccups there. The restaurant can get a little busy.

Amazingly cheap good local food - Edit
We've ordered 6 dishes and only paid 76k for 2! We had 2 noodle soups which tasted quite nice, 2 fresh spring rolls with a good peanut-sesame sauce, nom cakes which were ok but i wouldnt order them again and really yummie mushrooms in a citronella sauce. The floor was indeed a bit 'dirty' but it was just banana leafs and paper and after the dirty places I've seen in Lao, which where way more expensive, this is perfectly fine with me 😂

Crazy cheap - Edit
Obscenely cheap! Not the tastiest I’ve ever eaten and also not the cleanest but for the money you can’t complain. We got com (rice with veg and mock meat), noodles (with veg and tofu but no sauce so super dry) both of these were served cold. Banh loc (very chewy dumplings) and fried mushroom. The fried mushroom were in a batter and were so good we ordered another lot to take away. The whole meal came to 76k which is crazy! It was rammed with locals, you’re definitely getting a good meal at local price.

Ridiculously cheap - Edit
I know that Vietnam is cheap, but it's getting ridiculous. 40 cent for a full meal, but not only that, you also get a small soup which is refilled as soon as you empty it. The food itself is quite good, yes I had better, but not for that price and it really isn't bad. The restraunt is a bit dirty and looks a bit shabby but it's within an acceptable range.
Read moreSee it like this, if you go there and it turns out that you hate the food, then you wasted nearly no money anyway.
Pros: Way to cheap, , Good food (especially for the price)
Cons: A bit shabby, , Not amazingly good food (still oke though)

Wrong place wrong time - Edit
We came there in the evening, when it was very busy. They were out of most things on the menu and it seemed that the locals mostly ordered a mixed plate. The food was OK, but sadly the windows were opened and there was a bad smell coming in from the street. This isn't the restaurant's fault, but the combination of all things led to us leaving instantly after finishing the few dishes we ordered. Maybe try it for lunch instead of dinner

Good food! - Edit
Nice food but strange menu and service. Not very clear what you order because of translation. We almost tried every dish on the menu but saw a lot of other options around us which we didn't understand....? It looks like we had another menu. Food was nice, try the 'cakes' (which are not cakes not sweet but in rice leave). With our last dish I was sure I god mayo while I asked No milk No egg But the rest was vegan (I think)!

The food was delicious, had a plate full if vegetables, rice and tofu in tomato sauce. Plus we tried some of the cakes. My non-vegan friends also liked it. Also it was very cheap. Had a lot of food and only paid 20k.

Sumptuous meal for a very affordable price - Edit
Very very affordably priced menu. For example, we ordered
Read more1. com (rice on the menu, which comes with stir fried vegetables, tofu and eggplant.
2. Com chien (Fried rice)
3. Banh goi, banh nam ( 'cakes')
4. A drink
The portions were filling for two adults, especially one adult (me) being a heavy eater. It costed just 50,000 VND ( = 2 EUROS)
They tasted very very good.
Pros: Very affordable price, Tastes good, Most of the options are vegan except the drinks
Cons: Could be crowded
