Not sure if I trust some of these negative reviews, since some of them even said they didn't eat the food. Others you can't even see their profiles. So, I'll leave a legitimate review along with pictures. Initially, we were ambivalent about trying this place due to the high prices but they also have an exceptional rating on Google and Yelp. 4.9 on both Google and Yelp, that's rare. We bit the bullet and headed there. Parking can be tough but luckily we found parking in front of the restaurant. It was free after 8 pm on a Tuesday. If you go earlier or on the weekends, I would read the parking sign more carefully. There might be free street parking on the left side behind the restaurant. Don't quote me on that. Like I said, parking is not as easy as other places in SD. There are quite a bit of tables to sit in. It wasn't busy when we went. Yes, they do have a very large menu with like 1,000 items. We are not vegetarian or vegan but we have tried vegan places in Denver, CO. We ordered eel Helen pho roll, crispy beef chestnut and pineapple banh mi, and duck wonton noodle soup. The owner also gave us complimentary desserts, vegan corn pudding and vegan creme. She also gave us cookies and two cups of that delicious special water to go. That special water is hands down one of the best drinks I've ever had. Prices range $22-30. -eel Helen pho roll 5 - not real eel but this was very tasty. I like that the rolls don't fall apart easily. -crispy beef chestnut and pineapple banh mi 5 - the bread has a crispy exterior and the inside is moist. The chestnuts and pineapple really pair well together. I devoured this fast. -duck wonton noodle soup 5 - I really like the broth and the noodles. -vegan corn pudding 5 - this has corn with some coconut. It's a light dessert. -vegan creme 5 - this tastes like the real thing. I honestly wanted more. read more

Holy shit I am so impressed!!! We found street parking right in front. When we walked in we were greeted by Tran and seated right away. She went through the menu with us and gave us water. Water that tasted so freaking good! She mentioned the recipe is from the Middle East. Tran was so amazing! Plenty of seating inside. We found this restaurant on google searching vegan restaurants. This place did not disappoint. To be honest I knew it was going to be good cause being Vietnamese myself, my mom always used fresh ingredients!! Everything I ate tasted like my mom's cooking and that is extremely rare! Everything we ordered was 10/10!! I have no complaints from anything we ordered. It is expensive but you definitely pay for the quality of the food and you can taste it tooo! Can't wait to come back!! read more

Holy moly!!! I'd been craving some real comfort food for a while, and since I'm vegetarian, this place had been on my list forever so I finally made it happen. Parking can be a bit tricky with mostly paid spots on the street, but they do have a small free lot for customers behind the Middle Eastern market next door, which is good to know. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted right away and the whole place had such a warm, homey vibe. Their menu is huge, so be prepared to feel a little overwhelmed but definitely ask the staff for recommendations, they're super helpful. I was in the mood for something soupy, so I went with the Tom Yum noodle soup. As someone who's never had meat, I've always been curious about the taste and texture, so I tried the "chicken" option for protein. The staff mentioned it also had pieces resembling shrimp and duck, which was interesting. They also brought out an herbal drink, which was unexpectedly delicious. The Tom Yum was exactly what I needed, pure comfort food. Honestly, it felt like something homemade. I packed up leftovers and when I ate it at home later,I had to remind myself it was from a restaurant because it really tasted like a home cooked meal. The service made it even better, the hostess was so kind, kept checking in, and even brought out a little crème brûlée and a tapioca dessert for me to try. Both were delicious, and I appreciated that they weren't overly sweet. Yes, it's a bit on the pricier side, but as a supporter of local businesses and the fact that they make their own tofu and mock meats, and a lot of the menu is gluten-free, it feels worth it, especially for food that tastes this comforting. I'd highly recommend giving this place a try, even if you're not vegetarian or vegan. I'm already looking forward to coming back to try their bao buns and bánh mì sandwiches. read more

I had no idea this was a vegan spot when I walked in! I managed to snag a street parking spot right in front (score!), and it was well worth the effort. The menu felt a bit daunting with all the options, but I'm so glad I went with the Crispy Chicken Banh Mi. The vegetables were incredibly fresh, and the mock crispy chicken was like magic. It tasted exactly like Popeyes fried chicken but without any of the actual meat. It wasn't overly salty, and the texture was amazingly authentic. I felt like it needed just one more thing, so I grabbed the hoisin.It totally unlocked the most amazing flavor profile from the chicken! Combined with the fresh carrots, crispy cucumber, and daikon, it was perfect. I also really appreciated that they carefully peeled the seeds out of the jalapeños--that kind of detail makes me trust a kitchen immediately. You can tell they truly care about the customer. Honestly, it was one of the best banh mi sandwiches I've ever had. For dessert, I tried the vegan creme brûlée and it was SO GOOD. The sugar layer was expertly and evenly torched, and the crème itself... I don't know what kind of magic they used to make it taste like the real thing. I also had to try their chocolate pudding, and it was so rich with the same perfected textures and was just like whole milk pudding! So delicious Regarding the prices--yes, they are a bit higher, but it's clear this is how they sustain a humble business in a world where so many small spots were forced to close after COVID. They are surviving tumultuous, uncertain times, and the quality and freshness of the food make it 100% worth the price to me. I would trust these people with my life in a tsunami. I've never had vegan food this delicious, fresh, and authentic. This is a must-try in El Cajon and I'm so excited to come back and explore more of the menu! read more

We had a really delicious meal here! We tried a bunch of meats - sea bass, pork belly, crispy pork, Vietnamese sausage. I like Vietnamese mock meat preparations and this restaurant does it much better than other such places. The meats taste very fresh and flavorful. The server did say they make everything in-house. The restaurant is neat, nothing fancy. We were the only folks at the restaurant and found the service attentive. They promptly filled our glasses with the sweet fruit water. They also offered us complimentary vegan flan and tapioca pudding which my non-vegan family also enjoyed. One downside we all felt was that the prices are high, especially for the small serving portions. I know that making everything from scratch can drive up prices but it still felt steep. read more

Delicious vegan Viet spot, they deserve their flowers!! Our group of 3 came around 11:45 am on a Sunday and were seated promptly. Upon sitting, the super nice waitress introduced the restaurant's story and process and recommended us some dishes. The menu has over 50 pages and so so many items, the most I've ever seen which was super impressive! We shared 4 dishes among 3 people and were stuffed! -Helen pancake (4.5/5): Came with a side of meatballs in a sweet fish sauce and fresh veggies. The pancake was nicely crispy when fresh and the meatball was savory and paired well with the veggies. -House special combo banh mi (5/5): Loaded with pork belly, crispy pork, and fresh veggies. The bread was so good and crispy and I loved the combination of flavors. -Peking duck spring roll (5/5): Came with crispy duck and a tasty dipping sauce. The crisp and flavor were amazing! -Helen special fried rice (4/5): We chosen shaken beef and it also came with vegan ham. The rice needed a little more flavor but the shaken beef was delicious, tender and had a crispy exterior. They also gave us free dessert which was so sweet! We had the raspberry shortcake cookies, creme brulee, matcha pudding and cheesecake pudding which all were good. I liked the creme brulee and matcha pudding especially! Not too sweet and the texture was great. There is a small parking lot in the back where we were able to find parking. Decent amount of tables and clean inside with an all green exterior and interior. Their water is infused with lychee and apple which was super refreshing and tasty. They were great in refilling our waters and checked on us too. It is very impressive that everything is vegan, gluten free, organic and made fresh in-house and shipped from their commercial kitchen in LA daily. You can truly taste the freshness and quality and is worth the higher price tag. I will definitely come back! read more

Heard good things about them and finally went to try after hearing they made it to Yelp's top 100 list, which is so deserved! The restaurant is a green color inside and out and cutely decorated. The woman working was super friendly and helpful in explaining their impressively extensive menu (over 1000 items?!). Came with my sister and vegetarian cousin and we all agreed everything was DELICIOUS! The 3 of us shared 4 dishes and were stuffed! Peking Duck Roll (5/5): I loveee spring rolls and haven't seen Peking duck in a vegan spot so this was new. I love the texture and flavor and crisp! Classic Banh Mi- House Special (5/5): we heard the banh mi is their signature dish, so we ordered the house special which comes with pork and pork belly. Sooo good and crispy Helen Special Fried Rice (4.5/5): we got it with the shaking beef, which was the highlight of the dish, and also included small pieces of ham. I thought the rice could've used for flavor though Helen Pancakes (4/5): reminds me of little mini banh xeo. Topped it with the meatball and it was good to eat fresh with lettuce when it's still crunchy We were seated immediately when we came for a Sunday lunch, and found parking in the small lot out back. Their fruit-infused water is also so yummy and they were great in refilling our cups lol. They also gave us complimentary desserts which was so sweet of them! I especially enjoyed the matcha pudding and creme brûlée. Everything is vegan, gluten free, non-GMO, organic and made in-house and shipped from their LA commercial kitchen daily, so it explains the higher price but you can absolutely taste the quality. The texture and flavor of the "meats" is truly incredible, I'm in awe. I will definitely come back! read more

I have to say that I wandered in not know that it was vegan at all and everything I ate here blew my mind! I have never had a more delicious spring roll in my entire life! Not to mention that the woman who waited on us was so kind and very knowledgeable of the menu. You could tell she is also a queen in the kitchen too! It's cute inside green but not much sitting room so you need to make sure to come early if it is a busy time! Honestly, to be real.

Wow! The food here was so fresh and amazing. I came here two days ago and already want to come eat here again. I was very surprised by the large menu but that does not take away anything from the food. My friends ordered two types of the noodle soups. both delicious. crispy lotus and fried tofu were delicious sides. My "vietnamese sausage" banh mi was very good as well. Desserts were delicious too. Loved how the nice server explained the background of this location and how it came to be as well as how they make and get all of their ingredients fresh. I loved the authentic decor and interior too. This was a great place to get vietnamese food from. If the "vegan" aspect of it makes you hesitate. Please don't! The food is so good. You have to give it a try. I can't wait to bring more friends here to try it out! There is a small parking in the back on the side street but apart from that there is paid parking on the side and if you don't mind walking a bit there is neighborhood parking too. read more

First of all, the water here is amazing! It's infused with lychee and a certain type of apple. It's delicious and free. Everything my friend and I ordered was great--banh mi, udon soup, lemongrass tofu. It was all very fresh and clean tasting. I really enjoyed my meal and the atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and attentive, and they also gave us numerous desserts to try. Certainly recommend (for vegans and omnivores alike)! Update: I've been back several times, with my brother, friend, and parents. Every time I come here the staff is so welcoming, kind, and thoughtful. The food is prepared from scratch at a commercial kitchen in Los Angeles and shipped to San Diego multiple times per week. When I say they make the food from scratch--I'm talking the bread, the chili sauce, the soy sauce, the mock meats, the noodles, absolutely everything. This restaurant is an incredible labor of love, and the food is unbelievably good. Whether you're vegan, vegetarian, omnivore, or carnivore, this is hands-down one of the best Vietnamese restaurants in San Diego and even Southern California. read more

I came in here for some bao beo and I forgot that it's a vegan place. I went in there before but never got to order anything, but this time I wanted to give it a try. The lady at the cash register who was probably the owner was extremely nice. I ordered the bao beo and also bought a few of the small dessert cups to go with the bean sticky rice with coconut milk. Everything tasted good and you can't even really taste the difference. Although everything was more in the expensive side, the lady gave me a 10% discount and also a couple of the dessert cups for free. They make everything in house according to the info she gave me. They make the flour for the bao beo from basmati rice. The place is clean and the decor is simple and nice. Worth giving it a try. I found parking right in front of the store. read more

Been wanting to try this place for a while now & finally got the chance to! We tried the steamed rice rolls, one of their soups, & a dry noodle dish. Everything was delicious. It's a surprise that everything is actually vegan! They make mock meat in house & it definitely tricks your mind into thinking that it's actual meat. They make everything in house! They even have a special water that's infused with different fruits & mint! It was amazing! We loved everything we tried! Our server was also super & gave us dessert to try, she had us try the flan & their mango tapioca. Both were amazing. Definitely a unique place you need to try. Just keep in mind that it is a little bit on the pricier side, every dish is around $25-30. But you are supporting a small business so they deserve it! read more

As a vegetarian/vegan Viet food enthusiast, I'm so glad I was introduced to Thanh Tinh Chay!! I usually judge vegetarian Viet food off of their bun bo hue, so that's exactly what I did this time around. After flipping through 50+ pages of their extensive menu, which is so amazing, I finally came across the soup selection. I was quite taken aback that a bowl of soup was $28. My bun bo hue was level 4 spicyness, and it definitely hit the spot. After finishing my bowl of soup, I had a chance to speak with one of the servers- which side note, both servers were so sweet and accommodating. She informed me that all the ingredients are prepared from scratch down to the noodles and tofu, which changed my perspective on the pricing of the dish. The servers were so amazing as they provided me and my friend free dessert! The flan was delicious, but we both enjoyed the corn pudding even more! We also were given a discount after the servers learned that my friend liked this spot so much that she brought me. Based on the tasty food and friendly service, Thanh Tinh Chay definitely deserves its 5 star rating! read more

Thanh Tinh Chay is an absolute gem. I was astounded to learn about this place after years living in San Diego. Our server Trang was extremely helpful. She told us that the owner, Helen makes all the mock meats in her industrial kitchen in Los Angeles using gluten-free, organic, soy ingredients. The menu is unique and each entree is crafted with care. The flavor profile on the vegan shrimp was perfect. The texture was smooth on the inside with a light, crispy tempura coating. Everything was spot on. I am definitely adding Thanh Tinh Chay to my regular rotation. My sons who are somewhat picky eaters could not stop talking about how much they loved it! read more

Amazing food! I'll be honest, at first, I was a little skeptical because of the area and how hole-in-the-wall this place was, but I'm so glad I gave it a try. My mom and I shared a bun bo hue, and we fully finished it all. The broth was so good and flavorful. The organic, all natural, fresh ingredients type of thing really worked for them. You know how some healthy foods don't taste good sometimes? This wasn't the case. This healthy food was sooooo good. Our server was super nice. She first greeted us and asked if we've been there before and let us know their organic, zero-processed type of food might seem a bit pricey to many, so she wanted to let us know the situation before we committed to it. I'm glad she was thorough in that aspect so I wasn't super shocked or put off. Really appreciate the upfront transparency. If anyone is looking for really flavorful Vietnamese vegan food, please give them a try! You won't be disappointed. read more

I can't remember the last time I've been to a restaurant and it didn't just feel like I was a patron, but a guest in someone's home. The lovely waitress gave us thorough background on the history of the restaurant and how everything is made from scratch.

We were also given complimentary crime brûlée and tapioca pudding and both were divine. Hopefully next time I can meet the famous Helen! read more

Best vegan place I've ever been to! The food was good, my personal favorites are the vegan caramel flan, the roasted chicken, the mango bun (steamed type), and the tapioca pudding. Ambiance is very nice and service is good too. At first, it might seem pricey, but it's all homemade, no added sugar, they use fruits and that kind of stuff to sweeten it, and it tastes great too. read more

We came on a night when the owner was there. She was very friendly and went around to all the tables and talked about the restaurant, the food, the history of it all and herself. The food is 100% GF, V & organic plus homemade. What a treat to know I could eat anything on the menu. And it was also organic. Mind: blown. We got the fried cucumber, bibbimbop, Helen friend rice special #155 with shrimp and friend egg rolls. It's in a very sketchy area and the building leaves a lot to be desired.

Thanh Tinh Chay - Combo Bahn Mi House Special Sandwich - Vietnamese Near Me - San Diego, California

I recently discovered this little gem and was able to make my way down after being in the area. I would have never guessed this little vegan spot was here. You can see the green letters from the street view but the area itself is a bit sketchy. You wouldn't know it from the inside though, clean with plenty of seating. Upon entering, we were informed that the restaurant was vegan and it it was okay, YES! Absolutely okay to be 100% vegan, that's why we came. We sat down but were a bit overwhelmed with the 55 page menu! That's right FIFTY-FIVE pages. I was in shock with how comprehensive the menu was. After talking to the server a few times, we settled on steamed tofu and white rice for our girls, a side of French fries, a crispy ham classic banh mi for mi and my hubby ordered the Pham tai banh mi. We were explained how everything on the menu was fresh and made in house- all organic, non-gmo. The owner takes pride in the quality of her food. We were treated to some fresh lemonade-tasting water that was refreshing and not overly sweet or too lemony. We enjoyed it. When the food arrived, everything was fresh and tasty. My husband loved his sandwich. I enjoyed my sandwich too but the meat although crispy was a bit too dry, it had a nice flavor though. I would order this sandwich again but try a different filling. Our girls seemed to enjoy their food, especially the French fries which didn't taste greasy. Our server surprised us with some deserts to try and everything we sampled was delicious- chocolate pudding, flan, crème brûlée. My daughter said the chocolate ice cream was really good. The service was exemplar and the food was tasty. I wish we lived closer to this place so we could try some of the specialty dishes. We also ordered 2 Vietnamese coffees to go which were strong and good. This place is worth a visit. The only minor downside was pricing but when you consider organic, fresh, non-gmo is all relative. Stop by for a bite if you're in the area! read more

Finally got a chance to try Thanh Tinh Chay and can confirm that it is worthy of the hype it has received - I couldn't believe all the food is vegan! It is clear that so much care and thought is put into every single item (including the water, made from fresh apples each morning, with lychee, lime, and other ingredients), which is especially impressive given how large the menu is. The wait staff are extremely attentive and clearly passionate about the food, stopping by each table to explain the cuisine and specialties in detail, and our waters were never not filled to the brim. Absolutely loved the house special classic banh mi -- the crispy "pork belly" was exceptional. The complementary desserts were also amazing -- couldn't believe the crème brûlée (made through a very elaborate 10 hour process) was vegan! The prices are definitely at a premium ($25 to $30 each dish, including the appetizers) to account for the ingredients and labor that go into each dish, making it a little less accessible, but would definitely recommend. read more

The list of the top 100 restaurants for 2026 came out and I saw that Thanh Tinh Chay was #21 so I had to try it. When I sat down I was promptly attended to and told their entire menu was vegan. I hesitated as I am by no means a vegan. I figured, well I'm here so I'll give it a shot. I ordered the Classic Sandwich Banh Mi House Special combo of "pork belly" and crispy "pork". My sandwich had a nice crunch and all the classic flavors of a "typical" pork belly Banh mi. I was given their own house made beverage concoction which had a nice sweet lemonade flavor. I was told everything in the restaurant was house made. I also tried their flan which was very delicious. I had a very pleasant experience with the food and the staff, who was very friendly and informative. I was given a little history about the owner and also told what ingredients were used in each dish when I asked. I highly recommend this place especially if you're a vegan. read more

I wanted to give Thanh Tinh Chay the more detailed review with photos that it deserves. I feel lucky to have tried many of the dishes on their very large menu considering that I don't live in San Diego. I really prioritize going there for more than one meal every time I am in San diego and try as many things as possible there since the first time I went in 2022. This is the most interesting, creative, made from scratch, authentic and delicious experience for vegetarian and vegan vietnamese food. The dishes are very complex and every single element is made from scratch in- house-- Every veg meat analog, "egg" noodles, tofu etc is made there from scratch in- house and everything is done so perfectly and deliciously. Most of the dishes are made gluten free as well. You can see some photos on the wall of how some of these are made. The prices are high for the serving sizes if compared to regular vietnamese food but the quality and the amount of work and thought put into their food explains the higher prices. In addition, they seem to always treat their customers with a dish or a dessert on the house. I like their flan and jelly cookies but otherwise prefer the dishes to the Vietnamese desserts in the cold case. I have tried so many of their perfectly executed, interesting and complex dishes and they are all wonderful. I have tried and enjoyed these dishes: -Lotus salad (Love!) -Grilled beef in lolot leaf (So good!) -Fermented tofu soup: Vermicelli, bitter melon, eggplant, tofu loaf, "fish" cake, fresh mushroom, and fresh mix cabbage -Eggless Noodle Soup with BBQ "Pork" (Mì Khô Heo Quay) Egg noodle, house sauce, tofu loaf, fish cake, tofu, cilantro, celery, and comes with veggie soup on the side. Gluten free. -Thanh Toan House Special: Steamed rice comes with lemon grass tofu, shredded "pork" skin, eggless meatloaf, BBQ "Pork", crispy "pork" slices, fresh lettuce, tomato, and cucumber -Bahn mi sandwich (They make GF bread I believe) -Rice paper mix with shrimp app -salmon/ sea bass roll -Papaya salad with beef jerky and shrimp cracker -mushroom- lotus salad -Viet omelet with shrimp app -Spicy beef noodle soup: Thicker vermicelli, beef slices, tofu, fresh mushroom, pineapple, lemongrass, beancurd, fish cake?, and mixed cabbage. Everything is done in a thoughtful way-- even the complimentary water has a delicious mix of herbs in it. Not many places where I can't wait to have so much of the complimentary water! I don't remember everything I tried and not sure I can lable my photos correctly but this place is a must visit. If you are vegetarian, vegan, and/ or gluten free I would say even more-- do not miss this experience! This place really offers a rare opportunity to try so many authentic vietnamese dishes you might not have the chance to try elsewhere. Although the atmosphere is not particularly fancy, They make it feel really special with their service and delicious food and how thoughtful everything is. A 10+ stars from me! (and I am careful even with 5 stars :)) My general rating system: 1 star: I would stay away 2 stars: Has some good things about it but I generally don't recommend. 3 stars: Pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back but a decent place 4 stars: Great place. I would go back. 5 stars: I highly recommend stopping whatever you are doing and making plans to try it out! An Evie favorite! read more
