Good food and good location

Large menu with a range of options - would recommend the soy ‘beef’ lemongrass or the soy ‘chicken’ sweet and sour as that is what we had. Very reasonably priced, friendly staff and well located.

Note - cash only!

Amazing Pho and Banh Mi

We stopped here for an early dinner on our last evening in Hue, we wish it was our first evening as we wanted to come back again. I had the Pho with mock chicken and my husband had Banh Mi. Both absolutely delicious, and unusually for us we ate slowly to savour every bite!

not bad, not great

we were looking forward to the vegan pho soup. it was not bad, but not so great either. the fried jackfruit was not really fried, just steamed (or cooked?) and not very seasoned. overally, the dishes were good but not one of the best ones

Best in Hue

Look for this address in Google 12 Chu Văn An, Phú Hội, Huế, Thừa Thiên Huế 530000.
Old lady there was very nice, menu has lot, it’s cheap and all meals I tried were on point. I went twice during my stay, had some fried rice chicken, beef, spring rolls, tofu, chicken. Must go in Hue!!

Great feed, hard to find??

Absolutely delicious, the address is wrong on happy cow or something so we went to the wrong place. The correct address is 12 Chu Văn An, Phú Hội, Huế, Thừa Thiên Huế 530000, Vietnam which is what it is on Google maps.

Good options, good price!

Tasty food, reasonably priced. Definitely worth a quick stop for lunch on a fairly busy street. Pineapple juice was a bit of a let down, but chocked fried rice and pho were very tasty and quite cheap.

Nice place to try local dishes

I had the lemongrass “chicken” and banh loc rice cakes. Enjoyed both dishes. Nice comfortable restaurant to eat, wasn’t too busy on my visit.
The Google Maps pin seems to be wrong, but the address in Happy Cow is correct. Search Vina Center Hotel in Google Maps and it is right next door.

Does Not Exist!

What are people talking about? This place is gone. At the same location is a meat restaurant with a vegan menu, called Red Chili. We met other people there who tried to find Tinh Tam but it doesn’t exist as a separate restaurant any more.

Cons: Fact that it’s not there

Hi Andrea, The location is next to Vina Center Hotel on Nguyen Cong Tru, a short walk from the bridge. There’s something weird going on with their Google Maps pin showing two locations. I went yesterday and it was definitely open and the directions took me to the correct place. I’ll send a request to get it fixed. Please try again to visit if you have time, I enjoyed my meal there.

Ok but how would anyone find it when it’s the wrong address on both Google and HC? This doesn’t make sense. And the people at Red Chili said yes, that place is them now. (Maybe just to keep a customer, but the menu does sound the same)

Some one requested the marker on Google Maps and it automatically approved it (maybe a competitor, who knows?)
I’ve sent a request to move it back to the correct location. The directions were fine when I vidited a few days ago. Hopefully they’ll fix it soon.

Yes, what I’ve seen of this country so far, I believe it. Thank you for trying to work this out!

nice food, lovely lady

we went there for several times and really enjoyed the food. the "chicken" was really nice, you should try the chicken with coconut sauce. also the chicken or the beef noodles were very good!

Cons: fried rice was a bit dry

Really tasty good, lots of options

The Google address for this place is wrong but Happy cow came to the rescue. Pretty simple restaurant with lots of vegan food to offer. The soy meat replacement is great. The atmosphere is a little dead but it’s great for a quick stop

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Good location, Soy chicken was amazing

You can try Banh nam and Banh Loc here

Went here to try the Hue speciality of Banh nam and Banh Loc.

It was quite good and fun to try, but the experience was nothing special. But a decent restaurant

Pros: meat alternatives, tasty

Cons: not the cheapest

Super friendly staff and good food

We stopped there because it was right beside our hotel.
It's a family owned restaurant and they are very friendly.
The food was pretty good, and the prices were not bad.
It's a decent option, and the restaurant is clean and welcoming as well.
We came back 2 other times after our first visit, and our meals were amazing.
The dry noodles are so good. 👌
What a lovely family. 😊

9/10 after 3 visits. 🙏

Pros: Warm family owned restaurant, The dry noodles are great, Plenty of mock meat if it's your thing

We liked it

Nice place for a quick lunch. They have pretty good mock meat.

We had the tamarind chicken, tamarind eggplant and rice. All very good (with lots of onion).

Didn’t understand the hype

I was so confused from all the reviews as we found the food to be very underwhelming. We couldn’t eat the spring rolls as they were just batter and no filling and tasted of old fryer oil so strange! The tofu in tomato sauce was the nicest dish but I’ve had so much nicer food across Vietnam in similar family style restaurants for the same price or less. Wouldn’t return or recommend.

Updated from previous review on 2024-05-02

Pros: The tofu in tomato sauce was ok

Cons: Rice was cold and dry , Spring rolls were not nice at all , Noodles had a strange taste and didn’t seem fresh

Lots of choice, big portions

We went twice while we were in Hue. First I had the chicken fried rice, which was huge and tasty. Next, I had the lemongrass and chilli tofu - this isn't spicy, but one of the best things I've eaten while we've been in Vietnam, definitely recommend this! I also tried the Phó, it was okay but there are tastier things to get! My partner loved the fried spring rolls and fried noodles.

Pros: Big portions, Really tasty, Cheap

Excellent!!

We actually went to this place several times while we were in Hue. The service was extremely friendly on all the occassions, they have a big menu with many vegan dishes to choose from, and they were all absolutely delicious. Loved it.

Great food and friendly staff

We’ve only tried the fried chkn in tamarind sauce and in the sweet and sour. Both were delish, but our favourite were the tamarind sauce. We even came here a second time the day after to have another go at it. 😊👍

Delicious Food - but a little bit too salty

Very tasty food. My meal was perfect. Unfortunately, the food of my fellow travelers was slightly oversalted.
The regional specialties were very tasty and nice to be able to try them vegan.
Would definitely eat here again.

Fine

This place is fine. I had the pho which was ok, but nothing special.

Whilst they offer tofu and veg I’d say they’re quite heavy on the mock meats.

Nice food with local dishes

I really enjoyed the lemongrass tofu and the banh beo (a local hue dish). Only downside were the fried noodles with soy chicken and veggies, the veggies still seemed a bit dirty and the flavour I found a bit random (maybe the oil they used?) My partner liked it though so maybe just not for my taste! The soy chicken they used was good too, so would have liked to try in a different dish. The menu is very mock meat forward so if you don't like mock meat this might not be the place for you, but they did still have veg/tofu dishes.
