Buddha Chay Phi Nhung

Unclaimed

Came for lunch around 11am. It was not busy then so we could choose any table. It got really busy around 12pm lunchtime so it could get a little bit noisy at peak times. There was no air conditioning so can get stuffy and hot during busy times. Food was tasty, price is really reasonable. Staff were friendly, attentive and offered food suggestion. Drinks were reasonably priced as well. We paid 459000 for 4 dishes and two drinks which were surprisingly cheap. Food portions were huge, we could not finish so we asked to takeaway the unfinished portions and staff were happily to do so for us.

The food is phenomenal. I ordered a soup and the curry - both incredibly tasty, rich and arriving in big portions, as well as reasonably priced. I was skeptical when walking in as I arrived near closing time. A few members of the staff almost rushed me in, which got me a bit annoyed. They didn’t allow me to sit upstairs and started cleaning around me while I was sitting down, even though the restaurant was still open.The staff was nice, but doesn’t speak a word of English, which isn’t a problem, but makes communication a bit tricky. I ordered the rice, but got served with noodles. The ambiance is a bit strange with constant music and weird videos of a lady in a buddhist temple playing on the TV in front of you. The food makes up for all these little things and I definitely recommend this place and intend to come back.

One of the best food I had in Ho Chi Minh city is at the Buddha Chay. Wide variety of vegetarian options are available here with authentic Vietnamese taste. The taste of each and everything we ordered was delicious. Cozy ambience along with polite staff made this place more amazing. Mango sticky rice and tofu dishes is a must try here.

Truly exceptional vegan dining experience. This vegan restaurant has completely raised the bar for plant-based cuisine. Every dish is thoughtfully crafted, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor — proving that vegan food can be both nourishing and absolutely delicious. Whether you’re a long-time vegan or just curious to try something new, this place delivers beyond expectations. What I love most is the balance: hearty and satisfying dishes that are still light and wholesome. The ingredients are fresh, the menu is creative, and you can feel the care that goes into every plate. They don’t just serve food — they create an experience that feeds both body and soul. The staff are incredibly kind and knowledgeable, always ready to offer great recommendations or explain ingredients. The atmosphere is warm, calming, and welcoming — perfect for a quiet solo meal or a relaxed dinner with friends. This is more than just a great vegan restaurant — it’s a place that makes you feel good inside and out. I’ll absolutely be coming back, again and again.
