Their vegetarian dishes are unbelievable! It tastes even better than real meat tbh, also healthier! The store owner committed all ingredients are used naturally, no chemicals added especially to the tofu. Their tofu is just so different than all the tofu in the Chinese markets most of the time, it has softer texture and moist compared to the regular ones in the market Their banh mi was incredible! My husband and me, we tried 2 different types and both of it were same bommb. Their Banh mi menu has around like 9 or 12 choices for us to pick! I tried their Pho with assorted toppings play the role of “meat-protein” here, not broccoli or carrot or green like other places, and their 1 Cha Gio is also made with rice paper, not the typical mung bean wrap one so it has a crunchier taste and the filling inside made me bought another 20 rolls to bring home lol Staff: they are all like my mom age so definitely they can’t be fast and speak English fluently all the times so just be patient
So delicious!!! Love this place. Noodles and mock chicken legs are my favourites. Big portions and always fresh! Definitely worth checking out!
Came right before opening on a Sunday morning and they were able to serve us. Lots of vegatrian options with limited seating. I was craving a banh mi and ordered a vegan cold cut and it was super flavourful. I also ordered the spring rolls and they were super crispy. I would recommend and would come back to try their soups.
Been coming here for years and this place never disappoints. Everything is always fresh & pretty cheap, ambience is really nice too for a sit down. I got some noodles & chicken tofu for 7 that left me full, this place is a hidden gem!
I really love there Gelatin 3D cakes. The presentation is very beautiful and the gelatin is so delicious in a different way. I've been ordering their Gelatin cakes for almost 1 year now.
Got the 105 combi rice platter with varied tofu, jicama roll and vegan drum sticks. Very tasty and fresh taste. I was very happy, the food took me back to my childhood with the taste when i would go to other vegetarian-asian restaurants. Thanks!
This place makes the best vegan pho I’ve ever had. The takeout order can vary slightly in quality, but it’s always a large portion of delicious pho with faux meats. Their other dishes are also quite good. There’s very limited seating and it’s not the most comfortable dining experience with people rushing in and out, so I would recommend getting it to-go.
Vegetarians' heaven, but the meat lovers who came with me loved it too! We ate the teriyaki udon and the spicy lemon grass dishes and they were both perfect! We ate in the restaurant, it's a very small place but we don't live and the area, if you live in the area you might want to take out.
