Buena opción sofisticada

Buena opción en el centro de Hanoi, aunque sofisticado y con precios elevados para la zona

Pros: Comida, Servicio

Cons: Precio algo elevado

Comida correcta, servicio muy bueno

Fue el primer restaurante en el que comimos en nuestro viaje a Vietnam, así que no arriesgamos mucho pidiendo. Todo estaba muy bueno, en especial el agua de coco natural.

Not to be missed!

Now I'm usually very good at trying all the local spots when travelling, making sure I go to a new place for each meal but I unashamedly ate at CHAYFOOD 3 times while I was in Hanoi! Their pan fried mushroom pho was to die for!

It's also open super early if you need somewhere to hide out after a night bus, very fun to watch the old quarter wake up from the balcony

Great options

Lovely place and friendly staff. Nice upstairs area where you can sit and overlook the busy street below. Can't go wrong with any food option!

Pros: Fully Vegan

Amazing spring rolls

Very different to Aussie spring rolls, but easily the most delicious ones I've eaten.

Pros: Spring roll

Delicious vegan food

We came here for an early morning breakfast. The food was delicious. The entire menu is vegan, and there’s plenty of choice. If we were in Hanoi for longer we would come here again tomorrow😄

Good

I’ve been here twice; the first time I specifically asked for ‘no coriander,’ but everything still came with coriander. When I pointed out the mistake, it turned out the waiter didn’t know how to say coriander in English. A bit shocking, but overall very good (even though the noodles I got were cold and all stuck together).
Everything can be forgiven because the food is very good, the waiters are kind, and the view from the table overlooking the street is very pleasant

Good

Good but overrated. Everything is clearly pre-made. Got some of the soups and we’re really good, summer rolls and spring rolls could have been better, dry noodles are a big no no tbh.

Okay food

The food itself was okay-tasting, although the portions were quite small and some off the dishes had very little flavour. Our waiter seemed pretty bored, was on their phone all the time and was hard to get a hold of. Definitely okay to visit if you‘re hungry, but for a great meal I would consider some of the other choices in the viscinity

Okay

We had a late lunch at Chayfood. We had the Hanoi style noodles (nice big portion, pleasant) and vegan burrito (odd flavours like pineapple, very small portion - not even the size of a standard taco back home for 100k etc).

The coffee and juices, however, were very nice.

We weren’t particularly keen on the ambience and service. Our waiter seemed bored/ fed up by our presence and seemed to be on his phone all the time. The walls were bare and the fans so plus we couldn’t talk. There was 0 ambience to talk of. It was clean and quieter than the street, I guess.

It’s fine. Go if you’re hungry. Just not if you want a really cool or romantic meal.

Comida insuficiente

Las raciones son muy pequeñas. Pedimos dos sopas y dos platos (uno para cada uno), y la sopa o crema de verduras iba en el cuenco más pequeño que he visto nunca. No pido que sea tan grande como una Pho tradicional, pero es que la sopa era minúscula. Y las demás raciones también. Nos quedamos con hambre y es la primera vez que nos pasa en Vietnam.

Pros: El sabor de la comida, El local, La ubicación del local

Cons: Las cantidades tan pequeñas de comida, El ruido (había un bebé gritón a nuestro lado).

Nice vegan food

Fully vegan menu with a large variety of traditional vietnamese dishes. We had the lotus salad, wonton soup, Hanoi bun Rieu and tofu with dipping sauce. It was all very nice and tasty, the food was fresh and we did not have to wait long. We really liked it 😋

Fried Spring Roll & Hanoi-style Bun Rieu

The ‘special’ broth tasted nice and soft. I added extra chili but the broth itself was already amazing.

Spring rolls paired up nicely with the sesame oil

Pros: All veggie, Lots of options

Cons: No soft drinks (cola/fanta etc.)

really good!

Really tasty food, we tried the dumpling soup, the curry (quite thick texture and a bit spicy), pesto pasta, spring rolls and the vegan wrap (a bit small). Everything was super tasty, worth a visit when in Hanoi

On the fancier end

Very friendly service, and quick too. Option to sit on a little balcony which we didn’t do (far too humid!) but would have been great for people watching. On the fancier end of vegan restaurants in the city but still very reasonably priced coming from Europe.
