Huong Viet Vegetarian & Vegan

This is a brand-new vegetarian Vietnamese restaurant in Footscray, right around the corner from the train station.

Love this place, food is fresh and incredibly tasty.

I was not sure what to order for a while and the staff recommended the deep fried tofu.

I have dined at Huong Viet twice in the past five days and have been thoroughly impressed by the food! It has quickly become my new favorite restaurant and I am excited to try more items from the menu. I particularly enjoyed the rice paper rolls, delicious spring rolls, and the amazing dipping sauce that tasted just like fish sauce without the fishy smell. I also tried the fried wonton special, snail soup, shark fin soup, rice noodle salad, and the tasty S&P tofu. The mackerel was an interesting choice, especially the crispy skin which I really enjoyed. My top picks were the duck, which was incredibly flavorful, and the sizzling beef with its amazing sauce. Giving up fish sauce was a challenge for me, but that tasty dipping sauce made it easier. I assure you I was not dining alone when trying all these dishes... LOL. The staff at Huong Viet were friendly, delightful, and happy to answer any questions I had. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience, and I will definitely be returning soon!

The food at this restaurant was absolutely delicious! The staff were extremely friendly and the service was quick. I highly recommend trying the vegan saute duck, it was amazing! I will definitely be returning for another visit.
