A place not to be missed

Absolutely loved the food. The food was incredible, my niece loved making food rolls and loved the food there. Be sure to try the food rolls! 😊

Pros: Being a vegetarian, I was apprehensive., But I absolutely loved the food. And the story of, Mr. Cuding brought tears to my eyes.

Unique

Everything about this place is different and interesting. From the location, tucked away in a back alley with just a small sign pointing to the restaurant, to the owner’s personal story which he gracefully shared, to all the free starters that are served as soon as you are sat. The food is very good and you get lots of it, and the prices are very reasonable. I had a starter, a main and a beer the the total came to $8. When I tried to tip, the owner gave me back the money and said he doesn’t accept tips. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Small but mighty – unforgettable food!

The best meal of our entire trip. The vegan “beef” and “pork” were insanely good – full of flavor, perfectly prepared, and truly impressive. The place is simple and unpretentious, but the food speaks for itself.

Absolutely recommended!

Pros: Vegan beef and vegan pork, The food is served as a classic Vietnamese meal – , The owner also supports street children with the p

Incredible Vegan Food

Honestly the best vegan food I’ve had in a while. Everything is vegan and the owner is lovely, with a beautiful story for his shop. Very generous servings of free protein (the tofu tomato soup is insane). Highly highly recommend and it’s so nice to support a local family.

Pros: Tofu tomato soup , Papaya salad , Fried pork

Sooo tasty!

It wa just a blast having dinner at Katze restaurant.
Everything we ate tasted deliciously.
And don't be confused about the location. Two restaurants are serving the same tables, so just ask for the vegan menu.
Big recommandation!

Pros: Tasty, Authentic, Big variety

amazing and delicious spot

i think this is the only mock meat place in old quarter. They have amazing items and everything is delicious. All tasted fresh and every meal comes with free starter of tomato tofu, salad and veggie soup.

The location is somewhat hard to spot, it shares seating area with non-vegan restaurant, so it’s a little harder to spot.

Must try experience in Hanoi

Small lovely local place with an incredible history behind.

Love the concept, they give you a few local entrees for free so be aware of how much good you order.

The pork ribs with pepper sauce were absolutely amazing, fried spring rolls top as well

All vegan, many free side dish!

I order 2 menu only. They gave me 4 free side dish including rice, tofu, vegetables, and soup. They even teach me how to eat correctly which I have to deep the dish in the sauce first and eat it with rice. Price are affordable, great service!

Good concept, taste varies

You order one 'main' course which is then served with a big variety of other meals. I had ordered mock pork in pineapple sauce. It tasted really strange, the sauce not like pineapple. Very delicious was the mock beef. Everything else didn't have much taste

Pros: Mock beef, Concept , Atmosphere

Cons: Mock pork

Delicious family style food

We ordered 1 main, 1 vegetable, and 1 starter. With all of the additional free sides it was a delicious feast for 3 people! The owner has a great story and helps disadvantaged kids. So happy to have found this gem!

Highly Recommend

This place is wonderful, we went 2 nights in a row. Loads of choice (veg and fake meat), delicious food and free starters when you order any main, so it works out pretty cheap. It's also run by a social entrepreneur who helps out in the community, definitely visit if you get the chance

Free Starters and authentic vibe

I really liked the vibe and the Free tomato tofu, soup and banana curry. I wasn't the biggest fan of the mock ribs though

ביקורת מסעדה טבעונית

בעל המקום פשוט מקסים, מארח בפינוק ובשפע, הוא ממש הראה איך לנו והדגים איך לאכול הכול, המנות היו גדולות ומפנקות, לא הפסיקו להוציא לנו מנות פתיחה נוספות בחינם. בסוף הבעלים סיפר לנו את סיפור חייו ואת הסיפור של המקום שהוא פתח - הוא היה ילד רחוב, הצליח לצאת מזה, ממשיך לעבוד קשה ב2 עבודות גם היום והוא תומך היום בילדים קטנים מבתים עניים. ממליצה מאוד!!

Updated from previous review on 2025-02-07

Pros: האוכל היה מגוון ומפנק, הוציאו לנו הרבה מנות נוספות, היה להם חשוב לוודא כל הזמן שטעים לנו ואנחנו נהנות, מאוד נחמד, נעים, כל דבר שביקשנו לשנות במנה הסכים

Cons: הרוטב של הספרינג רולס לא היה כל כך לטעמנו

One of the best places in Hanoi !

The food we really really amazing and the staff super friendly and even explained how to eat everything. But: I recommend not going alone because they will bring out A LOT of food 😅 I couldn’t finish it, but came back with friends a few days later. Perfect for sharing #Veganuary

Great food, great service, absolutely worth supporting!

The entire menu is vegan and the food is fresh and very tasty. They have traditional dishes with fake pork, beef, chicken, fish, prawns, etc.
You get several dishes for free, such as tofu in tomato sauce, soup, rice and boiled banana.
The service is great and they showed us how to eat/ combine the dishes.
The owner's story is also very touching.

Pros: Food, Service, Price
