The best food is most often found at small restaurants - and this cozy place is a perfect example. I'm not 100% vegan but after I eat here I see how that could become a possibility. So many tasty dishes, and friendly attentive service makes this restaurant a keeper. Come here when you are tired of the bloated feeling after eating fast food and you want to feel good after eating a meal! read more

I actually enjoy the food here, they have a great array of options and cuisine for everyone. The service is friendly. It's a small casual restaurant but serves up interesting dishes for everyone. I love this whole plaza and its vegan options, very fun for everyone with dietary needs. I like it. read more

Loving Hut - Bun Bo hue and vegan Bbq Vermicelli bowl - Vegan Near Me - Garden Grove, California

Loving Hut is a small chain of vegan restaurants with locations in Southern California and in Phoenix Arizona. For some reason I always felt that the restaurants in Phoenix had a bigger variety of items and their food was also more tasty imho. I am not a big fan of the Loving Hut here in OC but it is still nice to offer vegan only food in the neighborhood. read more

I've died and gone to heaven! Thai vegan in a mostly vegan strip mall! So much to choose from! Got the pad Thai it was good-had to add a bit more seasoning to give oomf. The house fried rice was so flavorful and delicious! Great service, plenty of seating, and peaceful place to enjoy a wonderful meal! Can't wait to come back and try more!! read more

Ordered takeout so cannot comment on service or ambience. 8/10 Bun Hue ($15): I really love the sides in this dish like the soy protein and konjac, they make the dish taste so delicious. The broth was a little lacking in my opinion, but this is to be expected so I am so used to the non-vegan bun bo hue version and like my broth packed with flavor. Could have had more noodles as well, but overall, a solid dish. Paired the dish with the banana and strawberry smoothie which was super refreshing! I love Loving Hut and will continue to support. :) read more

Small restaurant that serves vegan Vietnamese food! Our favorite dish here is the spicy cha Cha. The crispy "shrimp" is SUPER crispy and has a delicious complex savory flavor with a little kick. We also ordered the bbq vermicelli dish. Egg rolls were really crispy. Owners was very nice as well. We finished off with a pandan cake which was very light and not too sweet although hard to taste the pandan flavor. read more

Empty inside! Which is fine. I'll take the quiet ambiance any day, versus crowded. This little restaurant doesn't look like much. But the food is phenomenal! This is my second time coming and both times it has been great. The asada tacos are bomb! Those blew my mind! You couldn't even tell they were vegan! And I love the spring rolls! They were super fresh and satisfying. Great vegan food! read more

TL;DR: Whether you're vegan or not, this place delivers. Cozy vibes, friendly service, and standout dishes like the fried rice, mi kho, and pandan cake. A must-try for plant-based dining! I'm not usually one to seek out vegan/vegetarian restaurants, but this place genuinely surprised me. Serving a mix of Vietnamese, Thai, and Chinese-style dishes, it's a gem for anyone seeking a meatless dining option. We arrived as a party of three around 6 PM on a Wednesday, and the restaurant was nearly empty. The interior is cozy, with just a handful of tables and slightly dimly lit, but it felt welcoming. Service: The server was incredibly nice, checking in on us a couple of times and asking how we liked the food. Food: Spring Rolls: These were okay--not much imitation meat inside, felt like mostly lettuce--but they were huge and came with a tasty peanut sauce. Fried Rice: A standout! Savory without being overly salty or dry, and the mix of corn, onions, and veggies gave it a great texture. Mi Kho: My personal favorite. The noodles were perfectly chewy, and the sauce, reminiscent of BBQ, tied everything together. I finished off the entire bowl. Pandan Cake Slice: One of the best dessert cakes I've had. Like everything else I was blown away at how unexpected good it was. A sweet and satisfying way to end the meal. Overall: As someone who typically prefers meat with my dishes, I walked away very impressed. The food was flavorful, the portions generous, and the experience made it easy to see why this spot is highly rated. My mom is vegetarian, and finding places everyone in the family can enjoy is a challenge. This is a place I can see us coming back to regularly. read more

Loving Hut - Au Lac Salad (Gfo) - Vegan Near Me - Garden Grove, California

This review is from a visit in July of 2024! So, there is a Loving Hut locally, in Northern CA where I live, so naturally while visiting the Anaheim area with family, we yelped for some dinner options and when I found this location.... I was excited! They actually offer many different meals that are diverse from other Loving Hut's I've visited. We ordered teas, smoothies, entrees, soups, rice, BLT, etc.... The food was delicious! The service was pleasant, and the atmosphere seemed calm despite a small inside seating area. However......... At the register up front while closing out our tab, we were all standing there and looked down at various types of fresh baked (packaged) vegan cookies. They had PB, chocolate chip, snickerdoodle, strawberry, you name it! We actually ordered two different kinds. A package of the strawberry, and a package of the peanut butter. We were headed to Echo Park for the evening and vegan cookies sounded lovely. I have attached photos to coincide with my review...... basically... We didn't eat the cookies right away. Found parking, headed to the park lake, found some seating, perfect weather.... and as we started to completely digest these delicious cookies........ we noticed mold. Fuzzy, dark in color, bacteria, NOT food safe at all, mold. In the center of the cookies. Multiple cookies. I love the idea of Loving Hut, I will continue to support the business locally..... but..... this was a serious letdown, on vacation, visiting a restaurant in Los Angeles. It literally made me sick to my stomach. This is NOT okay, and these cookies, and whatever else, should not be sold without taking steps to check expiration and freshness for the health food safety of patrons. Thank you for reading read more

I had the amazing experience to go to Loving Hut for my birthday and it was amazing! Super cute and small, nothing fancy but cute decor and super clean. My wife and I are both vegan and found the food delicious and incredible! The vegan shrimp we had to double check they were not real. The owner is an amazing warm and sweet woman. They times our food even though we ordered all at once and well it was great! We will be back! read more

I've been to loving hut before however, it was at a different location and apparently from the previous owners. The ambience was exactly like I remembered it very simple, simple seating. Very similar to the other location. I was craving one of the signature fried noodles that I haven't had in quite a while and it always reminded me of something out of dintaifung. Which was how I found out that they had a changed owners... for years ago... apparently I've been out of the loop and didn't know. So because they are not the same owners as before not all of the menus items transferred over. However, the young lady behind the register was very nice and friendly and gave me some good recommendations. And recommended the Mi kho. And although this noodle wasn't exactly what I was looking for it definitely did hit the spot and it was very tasty. I feel like this is always a great choice if you're craving a vegan dish. And it holds up on his own as well, even if you're not a vegan. read more

To be transparent, I'm not a vegan, my wife and I just love trying new places! I don't even remember how we came across this food joint, but we gave it a shot. I still eat meat, so I honestly didn't know what to expect. To be honest, It exceeded our expectations. The food was really good! My wife and I both agreed that the food had a lot of great flavor and the portions were big! The service was great, the staff was nice. I don't see myself visiting ever again, but if you're looking for vegan options, I highly recommend this place!! read more

The best, most flavorful banh mìs ever. They have more on their menu than sandwiches, but it's so hard to stop ordering something you know is a winner. Love the Special and the V-chop banh mìs. Tried the pork belly banh mì and it was also very yummy. Lemon grass beef was a bit pungent for my liking. They had a pandan cake that was truly tasty. Their banh mìs aren't the cheapest, but they are the best. Order via phone in advance for quick pickup. Glad they're not closer, otherwise I'd be eating there a lot more. read more

The restaurant itself is small, so there isn't a lot of seating but there are a few tables if you do want to eat there. The server and cashier were both friendly and sweet. Nothing to complain about them or their services. Food was yummy! I thought the burger was stacked a little tall and the veggies were thick but they tasted fresh at least. The flavor of the sauce was sweet and savory, very good! The fries were nicely crisped as well. The skewers felt a little dry but still had a good taste to it. I appreciate the peanut sauce not being too sweet since I sometimes have that problem when eating this kind of dish. Orange blossom lemonade was super refreshing and hit the spot!! I wish I could taste the orange blossom more but that was no fault to them since I just came out of a dentist appointment. The numbing didn't help me at all here. I'm sire everything would've been even better if not for that fact! At the register, they were also selling fully vegan candy. I bought two to try. Pretty neat! Their food is pretty solid, so I personally recommend people give it a try. read more

My first vegan fish taco literally blew me away, thank you Loving Hut!! There's actual pieces of crispy "fish" that's flaky, firm and juicy. Incredible fish substitute that's flavorful which I'll definitely be back for. The vegan lemon cheesecake was so scrumptious I couldn't believe there wasn't any diary! The filling is creamy and luscious, the taste of lemon mixed is evenly mixed in without overpowering the sweet to tangy ratio. The graham crust is buttery and has a good density to hold everything together. I highly recommend this in-house made dessert truly created with love. read more

THIS PLACE WAS INCREDIBLE. As a vegan, I was amazed by the quality of everything I tried. The Mi Kho dish was so good- it had a nice mix of vegan meats (shirmp, chicken), mushroom, lettuce, noodles, and bean sproats. It had a nice sauce that was sweet and yummy! I would definately recommend for anyone. The cakes were also so incredible and moist. So much flavor and the frosting was light and delicious. They also had a large variety of flavors that all looked so good! The service was also incredible. It was not too busy and the two ladies were so nice and respectful. Everyone I went with enjoyed their food and I would rate this place a 5/5. It has so many staple options for vegans and it makes them delicious and so savory. The only not great thing about its place is its location. There is a decent amount of parking but the surrounding area looks a bit run down. However, there is a vegan grocery store right next door which looks great, so I have no complaints!! TLDR: Absolutely amazing place. Great food, great service, a little small inside but the quality of everything there is so impressive. Definitely go again! read more

This is a really nice spot if you are craving traditional Vietnamese food, plus it's all VEGAN! Phở: 4/5 stars Absolutely DELICIOUS broth! Lots of "meats," mushrooms and tofu. Just wished there were more veggies like carrots and broccoli. BBQ vermicelli: 4/5 stars Fresh veggies, tasty pickled carrot and diakon. Eggrolls were crispy and delicious! The peanuts and "fish sauce" added so much texture and flavor to the dish. Definitely filling. Lastly, the ladies were super sweet. They greatly us with a friendly smile and didn't rush us to order (even though it was during lunch rush). Our food was prepared fresh and delivered hot. I definitely want to come back to try other dishes, especially the bun hue and of course, the desserts! read more

The food is SO good. I got the tofu fried rice and honestly it's the best fried rice I've had in a very long time. The smoky wok flavor, the caramelized and perfectly separate grains, the chewy rice. It was PERFECT. The facon had great smoky bacon flavor. The black pepper skewers are good but lean a tad sweet for my taste (I just really like in your face savory). The texture of the chik'n and beef were pretty good for vegan meat. I'd honestly come here just for the fried rice regardless of protein options. Also the owner is so sweet and nice and the interior is really cute/homey (we got takeout tho). read more

Everything was great being vegetarian and having all options opened to me were amazing! I definatly will come here. Also on a side note I had to order something different be a use they were also out of pad Thai because they only had enough noodles for one person but it was okay it got me to get out of my comfort zone to try something else and I was amazed it was great! Defiantly adding more sauce to my plate was needed but I have never had it before so happy to get it as a change :) read more

This restaurant is what put vegan food on the map for me! I'm not personally vegan and have never really sought out vegan food. Decided to try this place out on a whim after hearing a friend rave about it. Their seasoning and sauces are absolutely amazing! The flavors are divine. I won't say that their dishes taste like their non-vegan versions (because they definitely don't), but they're scrumptiously delicious in a different way. Spicy Spicy Cha Cha: 1000/5 My go-to! I get this every time without fail. It's crispy battered fried shrimp served with a side of rice and salad. The seasoning on this y'all. Holy cow. Spicy, savory, and fragrant. It's always a good time. Spring Rolls: 5/5 Spring rolls have a very special place in my heart. It's the perfect on-the-go food! All the goodies are rolled up in one. Their version is very refreshing and light! The star of the show, however, is their peanut dipping sauce. I'm usually not a huge fan of peanuts, but this sauce has definitely changed my mind! Such a nice compliment to the dish. read more

Out of all the Loving Huts that I've frequented in California, this has got to be my favorite. Small, cozy, and great food (and prices!) make this a must-try in the area. Whether you are plant based or not, there is something for everyone here at this Pan-Asian restaurant. We stopped by during a recent trip to Disneyland since this was one of a few handful of vegan restaurants in the area. The dining area is a bit small so if you aren't comfortable eating inside quite yet, best to order takeout. To start, we indulged in their Crispy Chicken Nuggets ($6) which were nicely fried pieces of soy meat served with a sweet and sour sauce. We then went for their Aulac Salad ($9) which was the refreshing salad that we needed to compliment our side and main. Our main was their Mi Khao ($11), tossed garlic noodles with soy protein, veggies, and their house sauce. Everything we had was delicious, satisfying, and filled us right up. For dessert, we took home a slice of their fluffy pandan cake and it was the perfect dessert. Not overly sweet, soft like a sponge cake, and filled with pandan and minty goodness. We savored this slice for a few days while at our hotel. Service here was incredibly friendly and inviting as well. The kind lady spoke to us and gave us some tips on how to navigate our upcoming Disneyland experience. Sadly we didn't have time to check out the beach (just a bit too out of the way), but we appreciated all the recommendations. Thank you Loving Hut for being our first stopover on our vacation here at Disneyland. read more

Each Loving Hut is unique and I always order items that I can't get at other establishments. So we got the tangy orange and fish tacos. The tangy orange is supposed to resemble orange chicken but it was nothing at all like it. It's all in the sauce to mimic that dish and quite disappointing. It had a very sweet thick consistency like cherry syrupiness. We got brown instead white rice and it came with a side of salad but no dressing. I got fish tacos. It came on flour not corn and the flour tortilla was like store bought. It cracked the moment I picked it up. Also seemed old because it was chewy. It didn't break when I bit down. The battered fish resembled the real thing but lacking sauce. Had lots of slaw and pico de gallo but barely any of the white cream sauce. Which made the whole thing bland and dry. I didn't think I would get full on two of the fish tacos and had ordered a side of steam mixed veggies. That box was a decent size and was probably the best meal out of all. Overall, these two dishes were a flop. I wouldn't order this again. read more

I had vegetarian friends in town and wanted them to try the variety of vegan fair in SoCal, I had never been to Loving Hut before but took a leap of faith based on their Yelp reviews.. they did not disappoint! I got an orange chicken with brown rice and it was good, not too sweet and nicely breaded and fried. My friend (who had never had the non vegetarian version) ordered the Vietnamese cold noodle with bbq and fried spring rolls.. he was floored at how delicious and refreshing it was! His wife ordered a bunch of appetizer-- fresh rolls, chicken drumsticks, chicken nuggets, dumplings.. and she loved all of it. Her daughter got the pad Thai (she was not a fan) but her dad ate the leftovers and thought it tasted great. Overall a great visit, we even got some yummy pandan cake that the server said she had made herself (maybe she is the owner?). If I am ever in the area I would like to come back. Great little restaurant with friendly service. They even sell delicious vegan jerky there! read more

My friend and I fell in love with this restaurant the first time we visited and never looked back. We've been coming here from time to time since then and it always come through. From the friendly owner to the quality of the food to the overall homey family atmosphere, this is one of our most comforting rotation establishments. I got the Mi Kho the first time and it left an marvelous lasting impression. The noodles, soy protein, mushrooms, lettuce, bean sprouts all came together in a harmonious blend of deliciousness that was made even more magnificent by the accompanied sauce served on the side. It was effortlessly light and did not feel at all heavy on my palate. The owner chatted with us during the meal and this gesture added a personable touch to our experience. The showstopper was the pandan cake at the end. Oh my word. THIS CAKE. It will have you delirious with unparalleled joy and absolute euphoria as you imagine yourself frolicking in a field of aromatic pandan leaves with coconut flakes fluttering all around you like winter snow. There are a couple other flavors to choose from such as pineapple, strawberry, chocolate, and red velvet. They also have vegan jerky and other sweet or savory snacks available for purchase on their counter. I have bought the spicy jerky here and it is superb. The Au Lac Salad is light and tantalizing. Two thumbs up for the rich and creamy blueberry smoothie, which they also helped to adjust on the sweetness. Prices have gone up slightly, but it's still much more affordable than other similar spots. In summary, an indulgent affair well worth your money and humble-hungry patronage. read more

Delicious vegetarian food! This little restaurant is located in a little strip mall with 2 other vegan/ vegetarian businesses (food store and subway sandwich shop). I visited with a non-vegetarian coworker on a Thursday afternoon for lunch. Parking in the lot was easy and we had our choice of seats inside as we were the only patrons when we arrived. Restaurant decor was simplistic and colored in white and green. The menu was filled with great vegetarian options, most dishes were traditional Asian type dishes but other options were available. We ordered the Blazed Burger and the Orange Chicken. Both were brought to our table in a timely fashion and were nicely plated, in good portion and very tasty. My burger was nicely textured and of the perfect consistency. I loved the touch of mustard. Service was friendly and helpful. As far as vegetarian food options go, this restaurant most definitely rated a 5. Wish I lived closer. There are so many other plates I want to try. read more

The menu is actually pretty big considering everything is vegan. The food was also really good and it wasn't very overpriced either. The food was cooked really well and meat substitutes were still really good. There was also a good amount of food. The drinks were also super good. There wasn't much seating, but there were also not many people there so it was okay to find somewhere to sit. The service was genuinely amazing. The woman serving us was so nice and she checked in on us multiple times to make sure we were enjoying our food. It was such a good experience. read more
