Not sure if they changed names or owners, but this spot is still amazing!!!! This restaurant is inside the hallway shops of Eden Center on the first left building if you're facing the center! It's not as hard to find as you think We approached the front part of the shop (it had hot food lamps for to-go vegetarian food mostly), but upon asking to sit down and eat, the nice woman working directed us to go around the corner to the backside where they have a cute restaurant to eat in! The hospitality and service was very nice and generous. The women working take great pride in their food and are so kind. My mom and fiance had the Bun Mam and Crispy noodles with vegan "shrimp"/tofu and veggies. The vegetarian "pork roll", "shrimp", etc blew me away with flavor! Everything was delicious from the egg rolls and dipping sauces, to the depth and flavorful soups. Do not be intimated to try something new, walking inside Eden to find this hidden gem is 100% worth it! I'm not a vegan or vegetarians, but I did not miss the meat with our meal here. I had the Bun Hue (vegetarian Bun Bo Hue) and it was one of the best I've had. The dishes here are exploding with flavor and the portions are so generous and perfect for sharing. We were offered water, or free iced tea and the nice staff gave us both! Definitely recommend this spot read more

When I discovered that there's a 100% vegan Vietnamese restaurant, I knew I had to make the trek to Falls Church! Long story short, I was absolutely blown away. On a cold winter day, the Bún bò Huế was healing: the broth was spicy and flavorful, the rice noodles had great texture, the meat substitutes were definitely reminiscent of beef, and I loved the radish that absorbed all that great broth. The Bánh xèo was also phenomenal: huge and packed with perfectly seasoned tofu and veggies, came with a refreshing mound of herbs and a perfectly sweet sauce (I could seriously just have drank this straight). Service was fast and friendly. The restaurant has two sides, the front for take out and the back was dine in (casual ambiance). Btw they do take credit card now. I'm only sad that I won't be able to go back for a long while. 10/10 would recommend! read more

I've been coming here for years and they have remodeled recently. This is nice because previously the takeout and dine in portion of the restaurant were combined which was a bit cramped. Now the interior is pretty standard and nothing special. The spicy noodle soup is what I recommend the most. I liked the omelette-like dish I got once less so I now tend to order the same thing since I know it will be delicious every time and I don't go often. Service is fine. Never had it be particularly good or bad. It's definitely a must-try for vegans. read more

Vegan, no garlic no onion restaurant. My go-to place when I have no desire to cook for the week. I order these regularly from their ready to go offerings: Stuffed bitter melon Tofu loaf Bitter melon soup Papaya and tofu I ate in today and had the following: Fried spring rolls - Vietnamese style, wrap it with lettuce and add basil: dipping sauce is great (use the sauces on the tables that they make themselves) Vietnamese pancakes- see pic, the filling is fried tofu, straw mushrooms, bean sprouts read more

They recently rebranded to Dieu Huong Vegetarian Restaurant. As the reviews have stated there's not much seating inside, only 4 tables, so it's mostly a takeout restaurant. We were able to make a reservation for 2 with Google though. The service was fast and friendly. Our server made nice conversation with us and they helped us pack our leftovers to go. We got #6 Hue Vegetarian Spicy Noodle Soup and #9 Vegetarian Rice Vermicelli Soup. We both enjoyed #6 the best and it is the house special. It was not too spicy. The soups had a generous amount of toppings including multiple kinda of mushrooms, tofu and seitan. A great place for vegans/vegetarians to get Vietnamese noodle soup! read more

The staff here is super nice. They help me with picking the dishes and explaining what each dishes name is. This place is located in eden center near hai duong entrance. They officially changed their name to Dieu Huong. They have small seating place so perfect for 4-5 people group but not more. The service is quick and staff is nice. Food have a lot of variety and have soup, saute, seasoning all kinds. They have "lobsters", "shrimps" , "sausage" . Price is decent as well. I bought a lot of food for $65, enough food for a week. Spring roll is a bit oily but the seasoning is good! read more

Located in a small store within Eden center, this cute locally owned shop was run by a few individuals and they were all so sweet!

Ok... #1 BRING CASH! No cards accepted. #2 find the large neon "Saigon West" sign outside of the building to find the entrance. You'll find this in a strip mall of sorts. I say of sorts, because I quite literally just left the United States for the past two hours. I've never seen anything like this in the US... I legit felt like I just got transported back to Asia. It was pretty much the coolest thing I've seen in a while. This restaurant is all vegetarian, but really vegan as well, heavy in tofu options. Only about 3-4 tables, so limited space. But the food was really hot and tasty, especially in such a cold day. Limited English, but when they realized I was trying to check on an allergy, they switched servers to ensure they could help answer my question. They let us eat our meal without interruptions, we stayed for a while, and they were there to help us immediately when needed. The Onnnnly thing I wish is that it was a little cleaner. Saw some bugs, but for the whole experience, just pretend you're legit in Asia and soak it all in. read more

viet vegetarian casual canteen style restaurant. they have vegan mam ruot (fermented fishy sauce) that often accompanies bun rieu, bun bo hue, and bun mam. i'm pleasantly surprised they even serve bun mam! it's rare to find a vietnamese vegan restaurant, let alone for them to offer so many classic vietnamese foods. people seem to come in for more take out orders than eating in. these super nice viet ladies make the food fresh every day. i came in on tuesday morning and my bun bo hue chay took 3mins to bring out to me. i'm so satisfied and cannot wait to introduce this spot to my parents! read more

In order to access this restaurant, you have to go inside the tiny "mall" that is in the Eden Center. This place is very small and can probably only seat around 15-20 people. Very strong hole-in-the-wall vibes. Unfortunately, it's not one of those hidden gems, in my opinion. I came with someone who had been here before, and we ended up getting one of their dishes in which they give you rice and then a bunch of mixed food on top of it. Everyone ends up with something different. The food itself was quite good, and a lot of the food tasted quite meaty even though this place is vegetarian. However, the food was lukewarm, which really took away from the experience. In addition, they were shooting off firecrackers for New Year's inside the restaurant. They were extremely loud and the firecrackers went on for over a minute when they would shoot them off (which seemed to be at random intervals too). read more

because we haven't been there so stop asking us about our experience. i'm sure it's a lovely place.

Another great meal at this little hidden gem. The staff here are super nice. Last visit it's apparent that they're redecorating the restaurant. Ordered my usual, the broken rice with tofu cake. Fantastic! Comes with a side soup. Also had the garden roll and truly enjoyed it. Perfect with their green tea. read more

Wow!! Absolutely blown away that this place is 100% vegetarian as the flavors in their food are beyond fantastic! Definitely my new Veggie Eden!! I had (or destroyed rather) their Bun Hue Chay which is a vegetarian version of the Vietnamese Bun Bo Hue beef soup. It had all the beautiful rich intense flavors of the soup without the fat, blood, bones etc they use to make the soup more hearty. All the vegetables in there were so fresh I would believe it if they were harvested that day!! Plus they give you so much food!!! I loved the broth the most - made with hearty mushrooms and carrots with seasoning, perfectly cooked noodles, vegan "ham," lots and lots of herbs and bean sprouts. YUM!!! I crave this soup now almost every day! Do yourself a favor, If you love noodle soups as much as I do, you've gotta give this place in Eden Center a try! Tips: cash only. Parking in private but very busy lot!! They have premade vegetable dishes to go! Very vegetarian and vegan friendly! read more

Dieu Huong - Vegetarian Bun bo hue! Better than the "meat" version - Vietnamese Near Me - Falls Church, Virginia

It was so hot and all I wanted was cold but zesty vermicelli noodles so I drove out to Eden Center to satiate that craving. I've been going to Eden center for years and had never seen the little hallway/indoor shops where Thanh Van Restaurant is located. I found this restaurant after looking through Yelp and gave it a try, and needless to say, I will absolutely be back. The portions are HUGE, and the food is just...incredible. It's all vegetarian and now I want to bring all of my plant-based friends here to experience the food. It's cash only and be sure to bring extra cash in case any of the hot bar or prepared cold dishes catch your eye! read more

Small restaurant but great vegan food. Is better for a take out, but they are super friendly!

For context, Eden Center is (unlike DC's sadly limited Chinatown) basically a foreign country. It's not far at all to drive from the District, though the Seven Corners intersections are bizarre. I arrived as a non-novice in vegetarian Vietnamese cuisine; I know what bun hue chay means and I make a pretty good one myself. Nonetheless, the experience was a bit baffling. The people working there spoke limited English (or at least didn't speak much to me), and they had laid out tons of food on the few tables they had as if they were catering for someone. When I got my order of broken rice, I could not discern that it was noticeably "broken" compared to regular rice. The array of shredded tofu, tofu "loaf" and vegetables and sauces still made for an intriguing and tasty meal, and it was fast and cheap. It's a small place, and I'm not going to say it isn't a tad sketch, but it's got good enough food to be worth trying. read more

Nice staff, love vegetarian options. Food can be on the salty side but seems very authentic!

Incredible, noodles were cooked well, tons of fresh crunchy and flavorful veggies. Spring rolls were delicious, pickled carrots and daikon were my favorite ever and the vegan fish sauce was perfection. Everything feels very clean and fresh, so nice to not have to worry about cross contamination. This spot is a true gem, so much variety, the people working are kind, I could not recommend it more. We are visiting in the area for a while and plan to come back many times and any time we're back around dc. The parking and finding the place isn't bad at all, it's in the Saigon west building, if you just walk the hallways you'll see it no problem. Truly phenomenal Vietnamese food, if you're reading this review just go, you'll be so happy you did. read more

A Must-Try vegetarian restaurant for vegan lovers!!! Outstanding restaurant even if you're not a vegan! They do take credit cards. My friend and I came here this past weekend due to a friend's recommendation. My friend is a vegetarian, but I am not. I was surprised to find such an authentic vegetarian restaurant in the heart of Eden Center! The waiter was very friendly and took time to explain the menu to us. I ordered the bun Hue chay which was very delicious and on-point for vegetarian standards!!! This was a soup dish with thick noodles, daikon radish, carrots, and very generous portions of vegetarian meat substitutes. It came with a plate of bean sprouts and cabbage. My friend ordered rice with 3 sides of mixed vegetables and unctuous chunks of vegan/tofu. It was spicy but extremely delicious!!! We also shared goi cuon bi with dipping sauce, which was also very good! Overall, great service and amazing Vietnamese vegetarian food. Highly recommend! read more

i came here with my dad to eat some vegetarian food and this place deserves all the praise. the place is pretty small with few seatings, and it was already packed when we got there. we were able to get a seat outside and the ladies who work there are all so sweet as well. literally every single one!! so sweet and made sure we were good with everything. we both ordered the bun bo hue chay and it was so so good!! especially with the sate and this other paste they had which i'm not sure what it's called. the broth was so flavorful and they really stuff your bowl with noodles and all the vegetarian toppings. i wanted to keep eating till the last drop but was so full. i can't wait to come back to try everything else! read more

We were looking for vegetarian Vietnamese restaurants in the area bc we had a vegetarian friend visiting from out of town and this place was amazing!! Our soups came out as soon as we ordered them and the portions are huge! We felt like we were eating at an auntie's because of how blunt our server was haha - our friend has a peanut and shrimp allergy and we wanted to verify neither of those ingredients were being used and our server looked at us like we were crazy, she was like "is this your first time here? this is a vegetarian restaurant we don't use shrimp!" lol. I believe none of their dishes have peanuts in them (or at least she helped us go through the menu and noted which dishes didn't have peanuts) Our server checked on us often to make sure we were taken care of. I'm excited to come back and try the other items on their menu! *Be sure to come with cash because they're cash only! read more

My mother's a buddhist vegetarian and I grew up having buddhist vegetarian lunches on Sundays, so I know how delicious the cuisine can be. Came to Thanh Van at the recommendation of a Vietnamese friend who raved about the Mi Chay and Bun Bo Hue. My experience didn't match up with the plaudits my friend and other Yelpers have given Thanh Van. The mi chay's made from mushroom stock--not unlike Japanese mushroom dashi. I liked it a lot at first, but gradually I realized how much oil (regular and sesame) and sugar(?) had been added and found it to be awfully sweet. The bowl was filled with an excellent array of vegetables, but my main complaint was how minimally cooked they were. Eating semi-raw veggies with warm, sweet broth made for a really disjointed experience, at least to me. It's small shop with much of the room inside being devoted to their hot food bar and prepared take-out; realistically there's only seating for about 3 parties at any one time. Everything is cash only. The prepared foods looked very good though, and I really enjoyed my vegetarian tofu skin spring rolls. But my bowl of mi chay definitely could've been better. read more

Must-try Vietnamese place in the Eden Center with all vegetarian-menu. I was very impressed with the food and friendly service. You walk in and the staff greets you warmly and you take a whiff of the delicious food. Just like many other places in the Eden Center, it's cash only. The most popular menu is Bun Hue Chay--a vegetarian take on the classic Vietnamese noodle Bun Bo Hue. The noodles came in savory, slightly tangy soup with a mild kick of spicy. I thought it was just the right amount of spiciness. The soup, despite not being beef-broth based, still had a delicious flavor. You also get the meaty texture of mushrooms and fried tofu skins. Comes with a side of bean sprouts, cilantro, and mint. I absolutely think it is a excellent stand alone dish even for meat-lovers, not just an alternative vegetarian option. The Banh Xeo--vietnamese version of crepes--exceeded my expectations. First of all, it's HUGE! Array of sprouts, mushroom, and tofu skins wrapped in crispy pancake was the perfect complement to Bun Hue Chay. The outer skin had a touch of sweetness to it. With the vermicelli sauce, the Banh Xeo was the perfect balance of salty and sweet. I definitely recommend this. The portions are huge and this meal costed me $20 with tip shared among 2 people. How great is that? :) There was a gentleman who served our table--he was the nicest guy ever. I loved the entire experience and I would come back. read more

I'll go four stars, because the food is pretty good and the lady owner/server is so nice. The food is great, for vegetarian. However, given the choice, I would always go for meat. Pretty much all vietnamese cuisine is meat-based, and most of the offerings here are soup so the vegetarian based broths just lack a little flavor. The goi cuon (garden rolls) are delicious, fake shrimp and all. The peanut sauce is really good. Also had the summer rolls which weren't as good. For the mains - the stir fried wheat noodles were tasty, with lots of vegetables. Needed a little flavor so just added some of the sauces/vegetarian hoisin/sriracha. Out of the three soups, the pho was my favorite. The bun hue chay is ok, not all that spicy, and just doesn't compare to bun bo hue. The noodles and everything was good, just again lacking flavor. Also tried the bun rieu, and it just felt like something was missing here (that something was crab stock). Overall still a tasty tomato broth, but lacking the richness and sour delicious flavor that bun rieu should have. The restaurant is small (maybe 20 seats), and accepts cash only. I didn't take a look at any of the hot foods in the self serve bar, but that could be a good takeout option if you're in a hurry. I'll come back, but only if I'm with a vegetarian friend who is craving vietnamese. read more

The bad: cash only, mostly pho and language barrier. Plus... Parking is horrendous and finding it can be a challenge. The good: the food, the portions, the authenticity, the noodle soup variety, and the all veg menu at a great price. Everything I have ever ordered here has been delightful, and I have no hesitation in ordering anything here! However, if you are vegan, I will state one caveat: if it is a fake meat, it could have egg whites in it, but I doubt it. In all my experiences here, the fake meat is soy or gluten/ seitan. What's good? Dang- what isn't? The noodle soups come with more fixings in quantity and type than I have ever had at any other Vietnamese restaurant anywhere, period. However, I have to add that if you are not adept at eating Vietnamese noodle soups and are hungry for it all, this is a bad choice for a first date for the self-conscious. To this day, I don't know how to gracefully eat it when I am starved! The portions are incredible, and the amount of protein is impressive compared to the protein additions provided anywhere else I have ever eaten noodle soup. You may want to take some home! I love the Vietnamese crepe without egg- nice way to eat some tasty vinegar-based carrot and radish dressing with bean sprouts! The lily root salad is unique, and again, can't believe portion to cost ratio! I drool when I think of noodle soup from this joint. It's filling- that is an understatement. One thing I haven't dared determine is the food outside and inside that is for sale- do I want to try any one day? Maybe. There are always people coming in from outside to buy something just outside the front door. It looks cool! I also appreciate how the noodles are always cooked well- never sog up on me! read more

I would never have thought to step into this modest one room establishment with about five tables and some seemingly middle-aged Vietnamese regulars hanging around, without Yelp's encouragement. But I live to discover hole-in-the-wall, authentic immigrant cooking, family-owned and run places like this. The comparison one reviewer (Serge) made, of feeling like they were stepping into an episode of Anthony Bourdain's "Parts Unknown" in the bowels of Eden Center (West), Falls Church VA is not far off the mark. Its a stormy Saturday and all I can think of is a bowl of hot Vietnamese soup. I bypass my go-to Hai Duong, and locate Thanh Van, opposite from another favorite of mine, Phuoc Loc bakery. This Vegan spot has been under my nose all this time albeit in the interior of the mall. I go in and find an empty table in the cramped quarters and its immediately evident that the proprietors are not going to have long discussions with me about the menu. So I just point to Number 1 on their laminated menu, which is the vegan version of Bun Bo Hue or beef noodle soup as expertly described by another reviewer (Cathy H.)... A fine looking concoction appears in minutes. I tear up the enormous portion of mint leaves into the soup, ask for more lime, dress up the broth with a pinch of chilli sauce, and tug at the various textured items in the soup with the chopsticks. There's a vegetarian Cha (cured meat), tofu, mushrooms, carrots, and a textured vegan wheat or soy product that could pass for shredded beef. You throw in dried fried onions, and mung been sprouts. As I dig in I realize the spicing is on my scale (I prefer spice) and on-point. The one other time I've had Vegan 'beef noodle soup' at Loving Hut restaurant, it was prepared with a sweeter (more palatable to the American?) profile. This soup is really pretty delicious. Who would have thought all these soy and wheat concoctions could taste so satisfyingly barbecuish-hot-sweet-sour in a piquant, steamy, vegan broth? The lovely middle-aged proprietors check in every now and then...do I like it? I show through my facial expressions that I am enjoying it and they give me an impromptu Vietnamese lesson: "Nuooong" is good. Hope I remembered that right. There's a LOT of the soup. Portion sizes are extravagant for the modest price. At one point I've overwhelmed. I hold my head in my hands and feel the sweat pour down my face. I've hardly ever sweated over Vietnamese food before. This food is fireworks! At the end I express some interest in the display cart full of prepared foods in the window. Mrs. Proprietor lovingly makes me up a small plastic tub with a selection of things and says I should eat them with rice or noodles. It's $5. The friendly couple warmly bid me goodbye with, "See you next time!". A day later I warmed up the soy based curries and items from their 'Deli' display for dinner. It was not only interesting, it was outstanding in taste and value. I couldn't tell you the name of anything I ate, but I can't wait for "next time". read more

The Bun Hue Chay is beyond delicious! Tastes home cooked - and with clean ingredients. The service is excellent too.

This was a great find! There are only a few tables inside but that was perfect as the nice woman serving the food loves to interact with diners.

This place is vegetarian/vegan hole-in-the-wall paradise! It's a little tricky to find, but well worth it! My friend and I had somewhat of a difficult time deciding what to order because we had never seen the items before, but once we started making selections based on how delicious they looked, we were pleasantly surprised. We were super hungry, so we sat right down at the table and went to town. There were a lot of delicious vegetables with sauces that we mixed with rice or noodles. There were spicy sauces that we drizzled over everything, and it all tasted harmonious and magical together. Everything was so fresh, and we took several boxes of food to-go because it was that good. With excellent prices and amazing options, I will be returning here! read more
