Chay Food

Ristorante vietnamita ma anche un po’ fusion. Piatti buoni e sani, ma nulla di memorabile. Prezzi un pochino sopra la media a mio parere.

The best miso ramen ever !

The waiter is greatly nice and helpful and was guiding us through the entire menu. A sweetheart. The soup though perfectly spiced and very tasty.

Pros: Tasty, Super soups, Very friendly

Enjoyed the kimchi and snacks, would have preferred bigger portions

Visited Chayfood for dinner.

Vegan Korean food isn’t easy to find, so I jumped at the opportunity to try their kimchi fried rice. A nice mix of veggies, kimchi, rice, seaweed and spices.

Had creamy pumpkin soup and mushroom sausage as appetisers. The cashew cream in the soup was rich, blended with coconut milk. The mushroom sausage snack was crispy and flavourful. In my opinion, the flavours of the mushrooms come out best when you have it without sauce.

Finally, the Thai curry was different from curries I’ve had in the past. It was a thicker curry with less veggies. It needed lemongrass and other important herbs.

Portion sizes were small so we needed to order more dishes.

Delicious

We had the pan fried mushroom pho and the mixed fried rice. Both were very delicious and full of flavor. Portions very very good.

Service was good and the atmosphere is very chic.

You pay bit more but it is really worth it. You get the quality out of the price.

Would definitely recommend.

Delicious food

Comfy restaurant with delicious vegan options including dessert.

The English speaking staff was very friendly and took her time to explain to me the menu. Upstairs a nice view on the street.

Pros: Friendly staff

Returned here 2 years later, still the tops!

We visited here in 2023,

Came back for some breakfast banh my sandwiches only to find that they are still one of my most favorite restaurants in Hanoi!
Got both the banh mi pate (authentic gorgeous banh my) and the tofu sausage banh my with cheese sauce (had an awesome spicy kick.)

for dinner, we have ordered just about everything on the menu (except the pasta) they’re hot pot selections are awesome and tasty, we really haven’t had anything that is even remotely subpar here.

For reference, we are a Vegan globetrotting family of 6, consider ourselves foodies (I have a vegan podcast) so we have eaten our way around the world. 


This place is definitely one of my very favorite vegan joints in Hanoi, in addition to being completely vegan, it’s also what I call clean food. Which is only evidenced by how you feel after eating it.

Can’t give enough love!

Pros: Food quality, Location, Staff

Delicious!

Loved our food here! There is SO much choice on the menu, we actually found it hard to choose. We all went for a bahn mi and shared fresh spring rolls. The peanut sauce with the rolls was the highlight but it was all delicious. The staff were lovely (and patient) and overall we felt like it was good value. I would recommend the restaurant to everyone.

Pros: Delicious food, Plenty of choice, Good value

Great food experience

My partner and I visited for an early breakfast (7am). We were able to choose off the breakfast menu, there were two different types of banh mi and four types of noodle soup available. We both ended up getting both types of banh mi and a Vietnamese vegan milk coffee with the combo deal (1 banh mi 1 drink for 75k).

Both banh mi were excellent and fresh, coffee was delish (but strong!) - and the service was great. The lady serving us was very kind and attentive.

Would most definitely go back 🎉

*edit: we ended up going back 2 more times - would recommend both the fresh rice paper rolls and the pate banh mi*

Early breakfast

Came here for breakfast before 7am, got 2 banh mis and 2 coffees for 150,000 which was great. Very yummy, good vibes inside and the staff member was very nice too. Found that the more traditional banh mi was slightly better than the vegan sausage/cheese one but you can't make a wrong decision here. They also had noodle soups and a variety of other drinks available for breakfast.

All vegan

The food is so good we went twice. After a busy walk in the centre of Hanoi Chayfood was an oasis. The staff are warm and welcoming and the food is impossibly good. I recommend the Hanoi-style Bun Rieu.

Pros: Calm, Clean, Cost affective

My absolute favourite restaurant in Hanoi. I must’ve visited more than 5 times, I tried multiple different options but the Mushroom Pho was absolutely gorgeous - never had a Pho so good!

Nice 100% vegan place

Went here a couple of times. The menu offers a lot to choose from! The dishes I tried were decent, but not the best vegan food I had in Hanoi. Flavors were a bit bland.

Pros: Lots of choice, Nice balcony to sit on , They accept credit cards

Cons: Food is okay but not the best

Great Banh Mi!

On our last day in Vietnam we decided we had to try vegan Banh Mi in Vietnam and we picked this place - great choice! The staff was super friendly, the restaurant (and also the restroom) is very clean and nice, and the food is amazing! We loved it!
