Incredible home-style Vietnamese food

Delicious food, the owner prepared a simple dipping sauce for the tofu at the table that changed how I will eat tofu for the rest of my life. The restaurant is tucked away but the neighbours downstairs were very kind in pointing me the right way. When I arrived I was the only customer but by the time I finished they had people waiting for my table!

Pros: Outstanding family-style vegan food, Generous portions

Excelente. El mejor lugar de Vietnam

Desde que llegue a Vietnam he estado probando restaurantes veganos y este es el mejor de todos!!!! Pides 1 entrada, una ensalada y un plato fuerte y te llevan gratis un chorro de cosas. La sopa más rica que he comido y todo delicioso y saludable !!! El dueño es un amor y te cuenta su historia. repetiría mil veces

Pros: Abundante, Económico, Delicioso

Best Value, unique experience.

Best food we’ve had in Vietnam, huge amount of food, paid AUD$25 for 5 adults. Great flavour, lots of veggies, tofu. We ordered a few dishes but It seems they just bring you whatever they’ve prepared that night. Staff amazing, one lady speaks a little English. Located upstairs, I think we went through the living quarters of a few families on the ground floor to get there. Don’t miss it!

Pros: Unique experience , Amazing value, Great taste

Cons: Nil

This restaurant is awsome

When I walked in this restaurant I was a little tired. When I came out I was hyped as [censored]. The food is really good. Don't order too much, because you get a lot of extra's like soup, a bowl of veggies and they make a fresh dressing at the spot. After finishing dinner you are at the point of rolling instead of walking. Then the best part comes. The owners of the restaurant tells his story wich adds so much more to the experience. He started on the street and now manages to run this restaurant. His dream is to help homeless kids the sameway as he got help in the past. Don't look further and go to this place.

Pros: Loads of food, Fantastic story about the restaurant , Really nice people

Such a pleasant little place

You have to wind your way through a little communal hallway to the back and up a tiny staircase to find this small but comfortable restaurant.
Nothing fancy but an authentic Vietnamese eating experience with huge portions. We had the chikn and spring rolls. It was served traditional family style and came with an appetizer, rice, veggies, soup, and a dipping sauce prepared at our table by the proprietor. All of it was quite delicious. We left full and feeling happy.

Pros: Huge delicious portions , Friendly service , Feel good story

Amazing!

I will never forget the experience! I ordered -I don’t remember the name- and spring rolls, with out knowing that what ever you order comes with side dishes. I saw myself sitting down at the table full of diferente plates of food, each of them absolutely delicious.
Is a must in Hanoi!

Unglaublich 😻

Es war so eine unglaublich authentische Erfahrung!! Man bekommt zu seiner Bestellung riesige Portionen Salat, Tofu, Reis, Suppe und Sauce, was alleine schon eine ganze Mahlzeit ist. Am Tisch werden von den Betreibern etliche Limetten in die Dip-Schale gepresst. Dann wurde uns vorgezeigt wie die Speisen gegessen werden.
Und zum Geschmack: es war das beste vietnamesische Essen, welches ich je hatte (und ich esse gerne und oft Vietnamesisch). Jeder Bissen war ein Genuss. Ich werde wieder und wieder kommen! ❤️

The best !!!

Maybe the best restaurant I have ever visited. If you order a main dish you will get salad, rice, soup and some vegan protein as well. So you will get plenty of food for a very small prize accompanied by a sauce to dip in that is as special as delicious. Everything is fresh and simply amazing. Owner will tell you his story from working in the street to becoming a restaurant owner. Everything is simply amazing. A must-visit in Hanoi.

Pros: Best food in city, Cheap, All vegan

Best (vietnamese) food I ever ate

If I could give more stars, I would do it!
We were a little bit confused how it works (and still are 😜) I think, you‘ll get some tofu dish and soup for free for every main dish you order. Rice and sone salad, too.
All was incredible delicious!
The juice were just fruit without water or sugar!
The owner worked his way up from poor kid to this! Even he had to be a grab driver, too.

Pros: All vegan, Authentic (family)

Our favorite Tofu in tomato sauce in Vietnam

The place is run by a family and is very nice!
With your order you will receive giant size sides : the best Tofu in tomato sauce of the country, a soup, a bowl of fresh leaves and rice.

It is very delicious! Go for it!

Pros: Delicious Tofu tomato, Big sides served for free

The food is very tasty and more than enough for one person. It is even better if you share it. The owner is very nice and his story is very touching!

Truly lion hearted restaurant

The food was good, very balanced, the owner's story is worth knowing and he is doing an amazing job.
You order one dish and you get a large portion of rice, tofu, greens and soup along with the dish.
Herein lies the problem as well, a lot of food gets wasted and its just too much food for a single person. I wish they are able to sort this out.

Pros: Economical, Balanced food, mixture of protein and veggies, Good food options

Cons: One ends up wasting a lot of food, Unfit if a single person visits

Full table of food

This restaurant deserves all the stars. There is not one single negative thing to say. Eating there was just a mind-blowing experience. Tofu, local greens, rice, and soup come complementary to your ordered meal, so don't order too much. We went for spring rolls and the vegan chicken and in combo with all the free food it was impossible to finish. We gave our best but had to leave some greens and rice. The tofu was literally some of the best tofu I've had in my whole life. The marinade was just perfect. The soup was well seasoned, I loved it. Also the people show you how to eat the food in the right combination.

Authentic but different

You get authentic Vietnamese food but finally a little different than the typical morning glory and tofu at other places.

It is a quite restaurant in the second floor which we appreciated after the busy streets in Hanoi.
Food tastes really fresh and the meat substitutes were also very well made. It was way better than expected

Pros: Quiet restaurant, Fully vegan, Family owned

A gem of a hole in the wall in Hanoi (& abundant portions)

We were not fully expecting the extent of food that would be delivered when we ordered one veg, one protein, and one starter. (As prescribed on the menu.) First came a huge bowl of fresh greens, a bowl of rice, freshly squeezed lime and chili, and tofu with tomatoes. (The owner demonstrated how to eat it all together.)

Then one after another, more and more plates arrived including what we ordered plus soup. A lot of food for only two people. We had to take some home and surprised ourselves with how much we ate. Probably because it was so good. Everything was delicious and seems to be made with love. A huge table full of plates of food for 245,000. Portions are too big if you ask me but everything was tasty and I would definitely come back when I’m in Hanoi next time.

Getting there: Sign outside is big, follow the indoor alley to the left of the sign and back and up the stairs to the restaurant. (People will help you if you’re turned around most likely.) :)

Food came quickly. Everything was fresh. Definitely recommend … but don’t come alone…bring a friend to share the feast with!

Pros: Huge portions and variety with each order , Quick service, Tasty

Favourite in Hanoi

We spent 3 nights in Hanoi and this turned out to be our favourite. We were a little confused where to go after seeing the sign, fortunately someone directed us through the passage on the left side then up some stairs to an understated, no thrills eating area where we were greeted by William who showed us to a table. We ordered spring rolls and the vegan chicken. All dishes come served on vegetables and with fried tofu in sauce, mixed leaves and bean sprouts, rice and soup. William then made a chilli, salt and lime dip at the table and showed us the Vietnamese way of combining the flavours. It all tasted so good! At the end of the meal, William gave us a card telling his story from a child on the street to a restaurant owner and how he is trying to help children who are in a similar position to the one he found himself in. If I find myself in Hanoi in future, Katze will be the first place I go to eat

Very generous people

The owner is lovely and has done a lot for his community. He is building his business to help more people especially disadvantaged children. The menu is great! Don’t order loads as they give you complimentary rice, tofu, veggies and soup on top of your order. Our table was full of food!! Great taste and very affordable

Great food, great cause

We ordered two things (not exactly sure if we got what we ordered but it’s all vegan and tasty anyway) and ended up with loads of extras including tofu that I think got topped up. The owner was friendly and showed us how to eat the food and was keen for us to read about his story at the end. It’s a very popular place with tourists and I’m not even sure many of them are veggie or vegan! Happy this place exists

Nice concept

The food is really tasty, the owner is super nice and the concept is what makes this place to deserve 5 stars. He is helping the poor kids in the street to have a better life with the profits of the place. The people working here are super nice and cheerful.
While prices are a bit higher than other places, you get a big amount of extra plates on top of what you order so it’s well worth it!
Beers are cheap also.
Go inside the alley and on the second floor! Even if downstairs is empty you’ll see if full upstairs and great atmosphere!

True vietnamese experience.

The food is healthy and fresh and they teach you how to eat in the vietnamese style. I recommend it.
