The food is amazingly delicious! I was jumping over joy and my tummy was so happy after the delicious vegetarian meal. I ordered the broken rice and Silken Tofu for dessert. OMG the silken tofu is the best I've ever had. I definitely will recommend to my friend and family. I will be back
The biggest problem with this restaurant is that it is located in Minnetonka and I live in Saint Paul. If it was closer to me, I swear I would be there on a weekly basis. Years ago, I backpacked through Asia and ate a number of Buddhist monasteries that served only vegan food. Thanh Luong reminds me of those places. The staff was super helpful at walking through the menu and picking out an assortment of items, including appetizers and desserts. It is a unique and flavorful dining experience.
Just went for dinner today, and thinking about it, this might be the closest equivalent you can get to Buddhist tourist temple food in Minnesota. It's a clean, efficient strip mall location. I had the Vietnamese pepper 'fish' in a clay pot; partner had the orange tofu. We shared and the orange tofu was good, but the fish blew my mind. Incredibly rich broth of soy sauce, mushrooms, scallions; Seaweed is used to replicate fish skin, wrapped around some sort of gluten or soy based mock meat. Rice was delicious; Summer rolls (with shredded mock pork and lettuce) were texturally dry but tasty. If you want hot tea, it's served in a nice pot, loose leaf green. This place is a winner.
Vegetarian restaurant is very rare in mid west, a good one is even more precious. Thanh Luong is one of those that the local vegetarian and vegans don't want to miss. The summer rolls, fried noodles, vermicelli bowl are delicious. The braised eggplant and mushroom was a bit too sweet, and the eggplants were cut way too big for the flavors to be soaked in. Services are great. Price is beyond reasonable. Portion is very generous. Would love to come back more often!
Sweet people, awesome service, and delicious food! What more can you ask for? My family and I journeyed over to the area because I love the idea of a vegan Vietnamese restaurant. We tried the canh chua, ca kho, bun rieu, and bun hue. Everything we ordered was delicious and tasted like the real deal. While it's hard to replicate bun (bo) hue to a vegan version, they make a delicious version that has all the fixings that a traditional meat bowl would. I don't know how they make all their mock foods but it's really good and textured way too well. I wish this place wasn't so far from me but definitely a great spot to get some vegan Vietnamese food!
I was excited to learn of a new Vietnamese place nearby - and was super excited to hear about it being vegetarian. The menu had so many options making it hard to choose! I got a coffee boba and egg rolls. The boba was pretty solid and the egg rolls were so good. Nice amount of filling, great crisp exterior, and the sauce hit the spot! I also got a curry and it was so filling. The flavor was wonderful and even had more to spare with leftovers. They held up well the next day! The restaurant has a good amount of seating and also has a patio. The server was great and on top of things. There is plenty of parking available. Overall, can't wait to stop back in and try more food!
Still in grand opening mode. Quick and friendly service. Beautifully presented food. My kid said it was the best orange tofu. We all had leftovers from our food. I will be back!
Had to come back and try more stuff. Everything was as good as before or better! Service is great and they're very helpful if you have any questions. It's a small dining room and gets pretty slammed with both walk-in and to-go orders around 5-5:30 so you might wait a bit to get your food but it's worth it. The veggie pork was amazing and had the texture of pork belly. Crispy "skin" and the "fat" had the QQ you want. Pulled apart in layers just like the real thing. Was amazing and I'd get it again. I was surprised it didn't come with rice. The "Five Salad Sampler" was my favorite dish of the night. Loads of different textures, flavors, and color. Every bite was loaded with flavor and was big enough to be a meal or two. I would order this as an entree. The rice crackers are always a winner in my book. Lemongrass tofu was ok. A little soggy and a bit sweet for my taste but not bad at all. Was hoping for something more like the spicy tofu from Pho Mai. So far it's a 3-way tie between the sampler salad, sweet and sour soup, and vegan pork for my favorite dishes. Thanh Luong has taken up there spot as my favorite Vietnamese place; vegetarian or not. We'll definitely be back to try even more stuff soon.
