Minh Kien Vegetarian Restaurant
Description
Minh Kien is the rare vegetarian spot that wins over meat-eaters without even trying. The food is Vietnamese through and through – papaya salad, fresh vegetables, bold flavors – not the watered-down health-food version that gives vegetarian restaurants a bad reputation.
Portions are generous and prices are low, which is a combination that basically never gets old. The staff are genuinely warm and good at recommending dishes, which matters more than it sounds when you’re staring at an unfamiliar menu.
People come back three times in a single trip. That tells you more than any review sentence can.
