All time favourite dine in vegan restaurant in Cabramatta. The foods here never fail to bring me back to Vietnam, the flavours are truely authentic.

Was in the mood for a vegan meal and Loving Hut exceed expectations for beautiful veg viet food. Some of my fave dishes done vegan style. Sweet and sour soup, lotus salad and fried tofu. All 3 items were devoured by my mum and I. I've been here before but it was a long time between visits so I'm glad we came back. It was half full and consistently busy with plenty of take away customers coming through. I will definitely return soon for another vegan viet meal.

Vegetarian Vietnamese food that is taste and priced right, restaurant decor maybe but dated but the staff are friendly. And can accommodate what you want.

Nice little vegan place here with their extensive menu which has a variety of Vietnamese noodle dishes and light snacks. Although, I did try the dry noodles as well and it didn't have enough sauce and wasn't very appetising.

Love it. Just wish they had more fresh food options. Happy just to find something that caters to vegans.

So tasty! And prices are reasonable. Menu has a lot of photos of dishes. Welcoming and friendly staff. Definitely will come back again.

Great vegan option in the south west, pretty rare to find out this way. I had the beef pho and lime Soda and both were really enjoyable. I would have thought these contained meat if I didn’t know it was vegan. Good portion size and nice service.

ordered the mi bo hue and the lemongrass chicken with rice. the food was ok because i was hungry, but it definitely did not taste like a regular (bun) bo hue. it was pretty watered down.<br/>the lemongrass chicken had more of a buttery taste than any lemongrass taste.<br/>during our meal one of the cooks were yelling at another staff member, so loud the whole restaurant could hear it. it was awkward for everyone sitting through it.<br/>the service was ok, the food was meh. the thai ice tea we ordered was good, but it had more ice than tea.

Now I will start by saying I am a carnivore so doing vegan is not really my go but I liked Loving Hut the food was really good the ability to mimic meat dishes is excellent and apart from maybe the texture not totally pulling it off you don’t feel like visiting a steak house straight after <br/>Maybe not my go to restaurant but would not take to much to get me to come back either

Friendly staffs, everything is vegan, which is very convenient for vegetarians, taste vegan beef and prawns made from tofu. Perfect place for vegan people

Being the only vegan restaurant in my area, I've become a regular at Loving Hut Bankstown. I've had quite a few of their rice dishes and their pho and the flavour is decent. Their portions aren't as generous as other vegan vietnamese places that I've been to but it does the job for my small stomach. Their service is okay; although the staff are friendly, they've forgotten my order a few times which can be a bit annoying. And they don't accept card payments. 😔 Overall it's an okay place in a personally convenient location, but if you're able to travel to Cabramatta you're better off finding better vegan asian food there.

Plenty of options here to suit anyone and everyone. There are a few branches of Loving Hut in Sydney, and the Bankstown outlet was my first time trying. Also liked how they had some vegan products displayed for sale. Was going to buy the vegan xo sauce, fish sauce, and oyster sauce but they are cash only and we barely had enough to cover the meal. Next time though.<br/><br/>The vegan beef and green papaya salad was tasty and refreshing, a solid choice on a hot day. Sauce wasn’t overpowering and as the “beef” strips were quite thin, the taste was hardly noticeable.<br/><br/>Also had the hai nam vegan chicken which I thoroughly enjoyed – would recommend it. Lovely flavour throughout and a great size for the price. The lettuce was more for display than anything, only because they weren’t washed properly and had about 4-5 tiny bugs…<br/><br/>I thought the vegan lamb with black bean sauce was a little average. Quite salty but if you have with rice it’s ok. However, rice is not included so you will have to order separately. Also, did not taste very much like black bean sauce. Well at least not the ones I’ve had before.

An absolute must when passing via Bankstown!<br/>Majority dine here during my lunch breaks and either order a Xiu Xiu rice with Vegan Chicken Salad, Vegan Prawn Rice Paper Roll or Pho. Hopefully the photos attached support my opinion that every time I've ordered, it's been the same level of presentation, balances in flavour, freshness and love.<br/>I have no negative perception of this store but do be prepared that you may be served by someone who's English isn't every good so double check your order was taken down correctly! Staff are decent despite the language barriers.<br/>The store provides a selection of vegan desserts & snacks (have not yet tried) as well as some peace-loving books and audio CD's.<br/>It’s a tasty experience & highly recommended :)

To have a store that's 100% vegan is hell yes. I love this place not only for their pho, but also their delicious stir fries! The thai fried rice, and duong rice is amazing. The flavour is superb, plus there's no MSG (says on the front page of the menu - disregard the other reviews), and they provide you the option of removing onion & garlic. There is this superb home-y feel at Loving Hut which adds +10 points. All in all, the service is quick, and the food is filling & delicious. The flavours hit the spot as I previously said! 😉 The menu is enormous which I think is pretty damn cool!

First off I will say the food was really good. Lots of choice, I ordered the pho and it tastes pretty close to the traditional beef version. Fake meat is a guilty pleasure for me and while I understand a lot of people don't like it, I do rate theirs if it's your thing. Unfortunately, our dining experience was ruined by one very incompetent, very rude young man who was serving as waiter and at the counter. After initially telling us it was okay to split the bill, he proceeded to make multiple mistakes calculating the separate totals (even using a calculator). When we pointed out the mistakes he got frustrated and said, "We are in a rush right now!", followed by "Ok I don't fucking care," some time later, when he was apparently giving up on following our calculations. Unbelievable. A senior staff member did intervene in the end and apologised, but I really think people like the young boy should not be working in customer service until he has learned to be civil.

I'm not really sure why people would eat at loving hut other than because they're vegan and there's not many vegan options in Bankstown. The food here is alright but because of the amount of hidden msg in their foods I feel sleepy and sick afterwards. The fake meat is gross and I think that maybe they should innovate a little and do some true vegan dishes. The service is alright, though.

In comparison to the Cabramatta LH, the food here is subpar. I feel all the dishes have been seasoned the same, or not nearly enough (however Cabramatta has gotten oilier & saltier these days so..). I've tried the chicken fried rice, the thit kho, the mixed rice in the stone pot, pho, spring rolls, maybe more.. also the swiss rolls were very clearly old but I was still served it.. The only thing I enjoy is the tofu caramel flan. Sorry guys, I am disappointed every time I walk out.

I'm not vegetarian or vegan but I regularly go here. This place offers great vegetarian food of all kinds. I love the bun ca Thi la there. Recommend this place to anyone who would love regular Vietnamese food in their vegetarian form, it's tastes great :)

Cult food equals bad food and bad karma. I have been vegan for 21 years. In that time I have never come across worse vegan food than served up by the Supreme Master’s cult which is The Loving Hut (http://suprememastertv.com/loving-hut/) in Bankstown. Lets forget the cult bit and that the shop front is a dump and that they didn't bother to tell me, when I ordered, they do no have card/eftpos facilities and I had to walk around Bankstown to find an ATM- 2 of which did not work thanks to vandalism. <br/><br/>I was determine to give the food a chance as vegan takeaway is hard to find but the tofu was disgusting, the spring rolls tasted like ass, perhaps like the Supreme masters' ass and the Thai fried rice and vegan chicken curry was utterly inedible. Score out of 10? Negative infinity......perhaps the divine Master Ching Hai needs to work more of her menu than enslaving gullible vegans to serve her rubbish food.

Spicy beef noodle soup. Saw this restaurant last week by accident when I was doing some shopping at bankstown. So I decided to have a take away when I was around there today. Wasn't sure what to order so ordered the spicy beef noodle soup. They were really good and could have that again instead of the real beef noodle soup. Have seen a few pics that I would like to try the next time I go there. Will definately recommended to my Vegan friends.
