Cơm chay Thanh Đạm — Restaurant in Da Lat City

As stated on previous reviews there seems to be dual pricing happening for foreigners.. Food was tasty and the soup particularly good.. Overall there was a lack of actual vegetables available and the only green vegetables were pickled..

Free hot tea is available on the table.. A week after posting my original 4 star review I returned to try the food again.. Rather than a 'hello' I was greeted with a staff member telling me 'forty thousand if you want rice!!' i pointed out that was more expensive than my previous visit and was given the reply "forty thousand- okay!!" i agreed to the price but was then told i couldn't select certain items - in short the server wanted to choose what i was getting for my money.. Again only one freshly prepared vegetable was available so i told them to keep it.. i instead took a 10 minute walk to the 3rd floor food court at Dalat Centre and had the rice plate served there for 20K- 4 types of fresh vegetables with a small amount of tofu and curried mushrooms.. please check my other reviews...

Taste: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Place: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Price: $$ (foreigners)/$ (local)

One thing to note: Foreigners price is twice local price. It doesn't matter if you go with locals, they will not reduce your price. When I come (January 2020) me and local friends come and paid 75k for both. Seems like they increase a price.

Price aside, I agree that the food itself is very good. It's not like other vegetarian restaurant where mostly vegetables.

Try the grounded chili to burn your tongue. It's a good match with the food.

Unfortunately the place is not large enough for a party. Especially during brunch time, they use most of the tables to prepare the raw...

Vegan and vegetarian foreigners, we tried all vegan restaurant in da lat , this is THE WORSE. First the staff don't let you choose which foods you want (it's not w buffet) , second they charge extra for everything until it was costing more than 70k/80k for a plate (you can go to many others vegan restaurants and eat BUFFET WITH 50kto70k). They gave us super cold soup and when we asked to warm it the old lady just ignored us. Super arrogant. Third, look the picture, it's super dirty. I would never come back here. Really, just Google "chay" and you will find so many...
