Dropped for dinner on a Saturday and the place can feel pretty relaxing and intimate. Staff is super chill and polite. My new favorite vegetarian restaurant.

This place served crazy delicious food. It was my 1st time there. I've been a vegetarian for the past 5 months and it's in my top 5 places to eat clean and non heavy. Martha hooked me & my partner up with a delicious juice drink called Reincarnation after we ate our meal and I felt good all over.I got a photo of it below. They had the smooth jazz playing & I felt good the whole time there.

Really good vegetarian food with large portions. Loved the maha mushrooms, lemongrass tofu and karma rolls as appetizers. The entrees were tasty as well. They have a good selection of smoothies and fresh juices. Highly recommend this place!

Great vegetarian and vegan Vietnamese food! We tried the fried mushroom appetizer and it was crispy and delicious with a good portion. We also had the urban monk bowl (nice sweet sauce and a tender beef substitute) and the supreme noodles (delicious broth packed with protein and veg) - we asked for sriracha and hoisin on the side. Good, fast service - I will definitely be back here to try other items from their extensive menu. It’s pricy but not surprising for the area unfortunately

Best vegetarian restaurant I have ever been to! Everything about it is cool...chill vibe, great food, great service. Waitresses we're cool, food was excellent. This is more of a vegetarian restaurant that has Vietnamese food, rather than a Vietnamese restaurant that is vegetarian. Top notch. Go there! (Casual...8nexpenwive) A++

LEGIT!!! This is hands down one of the best vegan restaurants I've been to. There are only 2 vegetarian dishes (one includes 1 egg and the other is coffee.) There are a lot of rice plates, soups, vermicelli bowls, spring rolls, salads, and starters to choose from. Even if you were a meat eater, you would still have lots of fun choosing a dish and eating it. All of their food is pretty good. I had the treasure roll, karma roll, urban monk bowl, zen yakisoba noodles, patience noodles, supreme noodles, harmonious connection, pineapple lemonade, and fruit stand. All the dishes had a generous amount of toppings, "meat," and carbs. It was very filling. Treasure roll was a simple spring roll with great peanut dipping sauce. Great starter. Karma roll has some mango in it and it also was good, but I liked treasure roll more. The karma roll comes with vegan fish sauce. Urban monk bowl was my favorite savory dish. Very light and refreshing. The soy beef was really tasty. Zen yakisoba noodles were my second favorite dish. Basically they are pan fried thick noodles with mushrooms and "shrimp." It hit the spot for my fast food cravings. Patience noodles tasted like a vegetable broth, but it had a savory depth to it. It was okay but I would try something else next time. Didn't mind eating it but I also love traditional pho and it really can't compare, literally. Supreme noodles were VERY lemongrassy but I like lemongrass so it was okay. Kinda on the sour side. Harmonious connection had a strong coconut milk base and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Awakening of Faith was also pretty dang good. A generous helping of tofu and spy beef mixed with fresh herbs and veggies. The drinks were okay. Definitely preferred pineapple lemonade over fruit stand. Fruit stand was less sugary than anticipated. Be sure to mix your drinks because all the sugar accumulated at the bottom for my pineapple lemonade. They ran out of the drip coffee when we went. Overall, a solid choice. Highly recommend!! They also seem to be one of the only vegan options open in Sac on Mondays.

Hands down the best Vietnamese food I've ever had and it's better than any meat dishes. The pad Thai is scrumptious, the juices so fresh, and amazing spring rolls. Definitely worth going to while in Sacramento for vegans, vegetarians, and meat eaters alike.

Decided to try this place since it was a highly reviewed vegetarian restaurant and was not disappointed. Most of the dishes were actually vegan. Great portion sizes and friendly staff. The most surprising thing were the fries. I personally don't like vegan mozzarella cheese but oof these fries were bomb. I definitely recommend this place to everyone and I hope I can visit again.

We order an entre (okra tempura) and a drink to share (the awakened one which was fine), and a main dish (I got the grill dish with noodles). The food was delicious. It can be a little bland but you can always ask for a sauce. I really like it not too greasy or seasoned. The vegetables were fresh and very tasty.

I recently became vegan to support my sister's choice to be vegan herself, and to benefit from the affects of eating vegan. I have done it before, but with work, college, and 5 kids, it's a challenge! Anyway, my husband and I had a chance to go out so I googled a vegetarian/vegan friendly restaurant. I found Andy Nguyen's. It looked really good and we loved how the founders of the restaurant are Vietnamese refugees, and their kids still keep up the hard work of managing the restaurant! We ate outside, in the back. It was so nice. Even though it was around 100 degrees today, it didn't feel like it in our little oasis. There were huge pots of bamboo encircling the dining area, and oscillating fans with mist spraying to cool off the whole place. There were so many umbrellas to keep the sun off us that it was like a roof. They even had vegetables and herbs growing in pots in a separate section than the dining area. We really enjoyed the entire ambiance. But, most importantly, the food was BOMB! We wanted to try everything! But we decided on Maha mushrooms, patience noodles, fried okra (all 3 pictures I shared), Limitless compassion, Nirvana lemon salad, and the hot chili sauce. We. Were. Blown. Away. We were moaning and groaning with culinary delight. Lol! I very enthusiastically recommended the Maha mushrooms! They are 10x better than fried calamari. So! Freaking! Delicious! Crispy, flavorful crust, chewy, yet soft and spongy inside! They were served with something like mae ploi, a sweet and spicy (but not so spicy) sauce. The fried okra was also very delicious and satisfying. But the lemongrass dipping sauce for it? To die for. I wanted to spread it on everything I put in my mouth! And, I did! I even dipped the Maha mushrooms in it! I am wishing I would have ordered a tub of the sauce to take home. If you don't like okra, just ask for the sauce! I could have bathed in it and been so happy lol! It had perfect ratios of salt, sour, and lemongrass flavors, and something I can't quite pin, ...maybe... sweetness? Whatever it is, I'm going back just for that! The patience pho was so good. I never thought I could have vegan pho and be satisfied. I was wrong. The flavor is almost perfect, just a little spoon of the hottest hot sauce I've had in a long time and it was on point. And, I always thought pho could use more vegetables! There were so many vegetables in the pho that I lost count lol! The Nirvana lemon salad is reminiscent of the southeast Asian raw paper thin sliced steak and lemon salad with tomatoes and onions. I'm not sure the name of it, but I sure do love it. This salad was the perfect replacement. Nothing was missing or left to be desired. There were pieces of sliced "beef" that I couldn't even tell were plant based! Next time I have a chance to go out to eat, vegan or not, I'm RACING to Andy's. Thank you to the wonderful people who left their home in Vietnam and built a wonderful place for people to find happiness in food for generations to come. And, thank you to their children who keep it going.
