Best Pizza I had in my life - Edit
My girlfriend and I loved the food. The Hot Dog was genius, but the Pizza Hawaii was one of the best things I ever ate in my life. We really wanted to come back but sadly couldn't make it. If we ever come back to Ho Chi Min the Filthy Vegan will be on our list!

exactly what we needed - Edit
thank goodness for some western vegan food. we absolutely have loved our Vietnamese adventurer however, just needed a bit of the taste of home and some great customer service. feels like going to your english uncle's house who just so happens to make good food and lives in HCMC. If you're in the area, you should give this place a visit, 5/5 stars ⭐️
Read morePros: SO many options, fantastic desserts too, yum

Best part of my trip to Vietnam! - Edit
With the huge amount of vegan-friendly food options in Vietnam, I certainly never expected a British themed restaurant to be the highlight of the trip - but it was!
Read moreWhat will immediately strike you upon entering the restaurant is friendliness - the owner is an incredibly funny, friendly, and down-to-earth individual. I don't think I have ever encountered a more welcoming owner of a restaurant - he really wants to get to know you and help you have a good experience, not just in his restaurant but in Vietnam in general. He is happy to make suggestions - including in one case trying to encouraging us to order something cheaper with more food to save money! And the best part is that he is a passionate vegan who runs his restaurant as a real "labor of love".
Now onto the food - it was unquestionable the best vegan British food I have ever had. Every dish is made with love and care - from handmaking the pastry, sausage, bacon etc. Not an easy feat at all but they pull it off wonderfully. Everything tasted homemade - which is no surprise given that the owner is back there making it for you! Everything we tried was executed perfectly - the full English breakfast, the sausage roll, the cheese and onion pasty, and the chili-covered hot dog. The "triple-cooked chips" are among the best I have ever had - perfectly soft with just a bit of crispness on the outside! Portions are quite generous, with piles of chips, seas of peas, and bowls of gravy.
Of course, one of the best parts is the dessert - I struggle to think of any other vegan restaurant that has a better dessert menu than this! The brownie with custard is truly amazing - I have never had anything like it, but it tasted even better than I imagined it could! The oreo cheesecake and chocolate almond tart are also out of this world. The only slight disappointment was the mint chip ice cream bar - the taste was good, but the texture of the ice cream was a bit off. But overall, the desserts are truly fantastic and it is clear that a lot of effort is put into them.
I wished I lived nearby so I could visit this restaurant again and again. On our last night we were the only ones there, which is a real shame. The owner is an incredibly talented cook and great guy who will brighten your day. Please, if you are vegan or vegetarian and find yourself in Ho Chi Minh City, make it a priority to stop here. As long as you are at least slightly open to British-style vegan food, you won't regret it!
Pros: Amazing, friendly owner , Excellent vegan take on British food, Unbelievable desserts!
Cons: That I don't live closer!
FilthyVegan.
That sire is the best review I've ever had! Thank you so much! Truly amazing! I now wish you also lived nearby too! So we can have great banter! See you in a couple of years with a little vegan family! Cheers mate

British comfort food - Edit
British comfort food you didn’t know you needed. Both the food and the owner did the impossible and made us miss the U.K. (a bit anyway). The owner is a warm and interesting guy with great British humour. The food was so comforting and filling but didn’t get bloating or issues after that you can sometimes get after eating junk food. The sausage and mash comes with an appropriate (I.e lots!) of gravy. OH was very pleased to have HP sauce for the chips. Desserts were proper desserts- sweet and delicious which are so hard to come by as so many vegan places insist on making raw desserts & basically nothing resembling a sweet treat. The chocolate cake and custard was the best!

Yummy British comfort food - Edit
If you’re looking to satisfy some British home-comfort cravings then this is the place for you. The full English breakfast was very authentic. Fish ‘n’ chips was well executed; very greasy but that’s to be expected! Cottage pie veggies were a bit undercooked and the potato layer could’ve done with some crisping up in the oven. I would’ve liked more baked beans with the fry-up and the fish ‘n’ chips, but very much appreciated that they were authentic Heinz and I know they’re not cheap to get out here! Magnum ice cream was less like ice cream and more like a date-based bar covered in chocolate, but tasty nonetheless. Chocolate brownie was warm, decadent and delicious.
Read moreThe place is a bit nondescript from the outside as it’s situated above another business, but once you go up the stairs into the restaurant the interior is really nice and homely, with a corner sofa and a shelf full of board games. The owner is very warm and welcoming and was kind enough to let us chill out there all afternoon, working on our laptops and playing chess. We had planned to go back a fourth time to try the burger but unfortunately we ran out of time!
Pros: Authentic Heinz 🙌, Homely vibe 🏠, Friendly owner 👋
FilthyVegan.
Thanks very much! I'm really happy you enjoyed our food and had time chill out. Thanks a million

Don't ask for the toilet - Edit
Absurdly when I arrived the owner sent me to the toilet of the shop at the ground floor and someone with reason began yelling me. Definitely grotesque. Was he afraid I wouldn’t flush in his toilet? The food is vegan english style.

Crave city - Edit
Get your ‘western’ vegan food fix here. As many people have said, there’s a vast range of options from burgers and hotdogs to fish and chips and chocolate brownies.
Read moreGreat tasting, ‘home cooked’ food from a top host… even if he did mistake me for a southern English person. Thoroughly recommend trying this place out if you’re a traveller yearning for satisfying vegan classics.
Vietnamese beer, Mexican hot dog & chocolate brownie. I’ll return one day…
Updated from previous review on 2023-03-23
Pros: Lots of options, Relatively inexpensive , Inquisitive + helpful host

Ha ha. Mistaking a Welshman for an English one. Nothing could be worse. My humble apologies young man.

The guy who runs it is super lovely, food was really good. I had bangers and mash with a side of beans. There’s a whole special menu too so lots to choose from.
I’m sad I found this place on my last day in Vietnam but if I’m ever back in Ho Chi Minh, they’ll definitely be seeing me again!!

Thanks very much for the great review and great rating. I did put Vietnamese food on the menu around two years ago. Sadly I didn't sell much. But I'll keep your idea in mind when I'll update the menu in the near future. I think you are right about having a few local options. Thanks again and safe and happy travels! Cheers!

Beautiful vegan junk food - Edit
From a full-English to pizzas to burgers to a Sunday roast, this is the best comfort food I had in Saigon. The menu includes many British-inspired menu items that I haven't seen anywhere else in SE Asia. The homemade cashew cheese used in the pizzas and some of the other items is the best vegan cheese I've had.
