Hương Sen Tofu — Restaurant in California

One of the best Asian vegetarian/vegan authentic cuisines in Sacramento region!!

Seriously, this place is no joke. It's a small discreet hole in the wall restaurant with limited seating but an infinite amount of possibilities and wonder!

It's kind of confusing at first. So basically you walk in and there's a whole bunch of food items laid out with no labeling, no idea what anything is. Then there's a menu on top with English. The items do not correspond to menu (I think?). But they do have a menu on the wall behind the cash register that has soups and discrete meals (like pho, bun bo hue, and rice plates. I forgot to get a photo of it.)

Basically you can either get some ready made food with write rice and 2-3 entrees or order some hot food that will be ready in

What an interesting experience! It's a Vietnamese Take Away shop with a small Viet grocery store. I was unsure what was vegan and what was vegetarian but any "meat" is faux. The first woman helping me was very sweet but couldn't speak English so well, but another English speaking employee came to help. They were very generous with their portions and the food was great. It is quick, cheap, and tasty! It may take a few times of ordering to get it down, I was a bit out of my element at first but still very happy with my experience. We ordered all kinds of amazing tofu, veggie bbq pork, and their veggie beef noodle soup. The soup was my favorite thing!! I recommend taking it all home and getting a bit creative. Everything needed to be heated up and we decided to fry up the vegan pork to make it a bit crispier. Make sure to come early so you have access to their best offerings! Over all it was really good food and sweet staff and I recommend this place! I do wish they would switch from styrofoam to a more sustainable take away...

A hole in the wall vegetarian spot in South Sac. Everything is pre-made and in warming containers behind a glass counter. I think they replenish certain items, but once they sell out, they are done. You just have to point and let them know what size you want. They speak a little big of English and usually friendly. I see the same lady for years.

I love the fried tofu (mushroom, lemongrass and plain). I think it's 5 pieces for $1 now. It's a steal and they are well known for their fried tofu. I enjoyed the variety of flavors and texture. The sweet and sour soup with okra, tofu and vegetables is a must doing the cold months. I really haven't had anything I didn't like. The vegetarian char siu taste and look like meat. I don't know how they do it. I also like the spicy eggplant.

You can order soup noodles like bun rieu or bun bo hue to eat in there or take home. They have few tables and usually empty when I'm there. They also sell a bunch of vegetarian dry...
