Best Restaurants Go With Friends Hanoi Near Me

4worldlovers: A bit hard to find, they no longer have the big sign outside. Now it's called Little Hanoi 2 and you will see a small Aubergine cafe sticker on the window so if you don't pay attention you may think it's closed.

The staff is super friendly and they speak good enough english, no problems with understanding what's vegan.

It was really busy when we went as a whole half of the restaurant was taken up by a tour group but that was fine. the food was okay the aubergine was nice but it would have been nice to have something else with it maybe different veg or more rice as it seemed liked a lot of just aubergine and i love aubergine. noodles were okay but not amazing, fine food but not super tasty wouldn’t rush back

Delicious aubergine which is fried eggplant. I actually don’t like eggplant usually but this was delicious. I heard the fried tofu is great too.

I ordered the grilled aubergine and rice and my partner had the fried aubergine with garlic. Amazing flavour but I'm biased as aubergine is my fave veg!

Cons: Can't be sure if they veggie flavours or sauces , Limited veggie options

Le plat d'aubergines à l'ail et celui d'aubergines au gingembre sont délicieux. Je les recommandés vivement.

Being across from my hotel was how I found it, but I would eat every meal here. Everything was delicious. I had the veggie spring rolls and standard aubergine dish. Both were incredible!

Great little spot in the centre of the city. So many vegan options and all delicious, the grilled aubergine is a MUST. Went with three meat-eaters who also had nice meals. Not the prettiest decor but more than worth it for the food.

We ordered both the sweet and sour tofu and the caramelised tofu dish. Both were fab and tasty and an alright price. Staff are lovely and cute little place. Bring some paper and a pen as you can leave a message under the table top made of glass.

Loads of veggie/ vegan options here and the staff were super friendly. We had fried noodles with veg and tofu and it was a decent portion and pretty reasonably priced 55k vnd.

I got vegetable fried rice here and the rice was bland and a bit hard.

However my friends enjoyed their meals (including the veg and tofu pho and other meat dishes)

Had the lemongrass and chilli tofu which was excellent and then a fantastic aubergine dish! Really lived up to the name.

Since I am a vegetarian but my husband isn't, we were happy to find a menu with a mix of food choices including a range of options for me. However, while very fresh-tasting, the food was the most bland and uninteresting flavor-wise that we experienced in Vietnam, including the airplane meals. I saved my vegetarian pho by dumping in the dipping sauce from my spring rolls, adding lots of the vinegar-chili, and some hot sauce, but it otherwise had all the appeal of vegetables and noodles in water. My husband's choices including meat were equally disappointing for him; he also rated it the worst (only bad meal) yet, while we enjoyed the much more flavorful complementary breakfast of traditional Vietnamese foods at our hotel. It reminded us of youth hostel food, where the goal of eating there was to potentially connect with fellow travelers (no locals would eat there).

We had Vietnamese papaya salad, which was bland and tasted of the local seasoning sauce, very nasty thing full of msg. Spring rolls were oily and burnt - they were black and inedible. The prices are good, but I wouldn’t eat that for free.

Aubergine makes a lot of wonderful dishes but our favourite was the fresh spring rolls, vegan and gluten free. they were so delicious i think we ate them three days in a row!
