Loving Hut is one of my favorite vegan/vegetarian places. This location is tucked away in a janky plaza, which could use a serious face lift. CRISPY CHOW-FUN & PANDAN CAKE - OMG. I have ordered these two items multiple times, and have yet to be disappointed. I also recommend the Spring Rolls & Spicy Cha Cha ("shrimp"). It's mostly an Asian-themed menu, but they also offer burgers & wraps. Meat-lovers, please give it a try! The last time I brought Loving Hut take out home for dinner, my husband couldn't tell he was scarfing down a meatless meal. read more

Food is GREAT. I personally always get the golden rolls. Beyond delicious. Along with their chow mein. Their service is very good as well! It's a smaller sized location so the tables are closer, which makes the experience a little more intimate, but it's definitely not awkward. Would recommend this place to everyone. read more

I am shifting to a vegetarian diet, so I'm not well versed in the good local vegan restaurants near me. I needed to go out for lunch so I googled "vegan food near me" and Loving Hut was the first that came up. And Google did not disappoint me. The location is kind of tucked into a little "chain mall" so it can be hard to miss. It was very clean and quiet inside, and I was greeted by two employees. I ordered the BBQ Noodle to go, and they prepared it very quickly. I took it back to my office and it was one of my favorite office lunches so far (been working in Santa Ana for over a year). The salad was crisp and fresh. The rice noodles were cooked perfectly, not mushy or anything. And this may sound silly, but for a recent vegetarian convert, the soy protein slices were cooked and flavored so nicely you wouldn't know it wasn't real beef. Not to mention, their crispy rolls were delicious! I will definitely becoming back! Thank you Loving Hut for making delicious food that is easy for transitioning vegetarians or vegans, and that doesn't hurt the wallet! read more

Great service and food! We got the chow mein and heavenly salad. The workers were really nice! read more

The place itself was nice, my family and I got 2 classic burgers and a portabello mushroom burger and 1 mango smoothie. My burger still had the wrapper with the vegan cheese on it inside so I had to constantly take it out of my mouth and peel cheese off and then take the wrapper out. Burgers were still good but that's a big health code violation that I had to solve myself, if the food was handled better I'd return! Just watch what's in your food before serving it! read more

We have this place another try and actually I think it was better this time. We did pick up instead of delivery and I feel like that made a difference because much of the food remained crispier and in better shape. Crispy rolls still amazing and they do have so many vegetarian and vegan options. Golden rolls still my favorite especially with their house sauce. We actually tried the bbq rolls this time and thought they were pretty good with a vegan fish sauce that my husband thinks is pretty close to a regular fish sauce. We haven't tried many sandwiches but I did have a bite of my husbands banh mi and I think that hits the spot if you are in the mood for Vietnamese food but looking for veggie option! I've tried a lot of those from regular Vietnamese restaurants and I think this one is way better than other places. I do prefer a lot of the food without fake meat in it but my husband needs the extra "meat" to fill him up. The service is also fast and it's just such a quick and easy choice for vegetarians! Looking forward to trying the pho and some more rice dishes next time. Oh I also like the Thai iced tea but so far we haven't enjoyed any of the desserts. Maybe next time! read more

Ordered to go...they don't cook the pho noodles all the way and tell you to make them later, plus make your own soup so you get broth with nothing in it so nothing is marinating. It's quite sweet broth too...not really pho tasting. Got grilled noodle...that broth wasn't right either..very watery little flavor. The to go boxes get soggy, and the silverware is a spork good for nothing really. Plus they put the hoisen and hot sauce together in one little cup so you get barely much hoisen and can't avoid the hot. It's more expensive than Huntington Beach... really wondering why. I much much more prefer the Huntington Beach location. read more

Its Lent time again. Which means no meat Fridays, till after Easter. I grew up in a Catholic family and was constantly nag about not eating meat on Friday, Which made me go out and eat extra meat. I'm such a rebel. hahah My buddy from Colorado came out to visit. Unlike me, he actually follow this practice. I actually respect peoples wishes, as long as they don't force it on me. I suggested that we go to the Loving Hut, a vegan joint. I heard about this place from another friend whose family are vegetarian and they like this place. I am not a Vegetarian but I am a fan of Vietnamese Vegan food. I am impress with all the mock meat dishes. The loving Hut was ok. It doesn't wow me like Bo De, which is another Viet vegan place. The menu is small and simple. They have Asian food as well as veggie burgers, salad and wraps. I ordered the BBQ noodles. My dish came with Vermicelli, 2 egg roll and a lot of faux BBQ pork. The type of dish I ordered is pretty bland its usually the fish sauce that carry the meal. The fake fish sauce here is pretty bland and didn't hold my dish together well. The egg rolls were crispy and not too oily. The BBQ meat tasted good. I would say its like eating a chicken Caesar salad with out the dressing. I pass my dish over to my friend and he was impress with the meat. He didn't believe me when I said it was soy. I called one of the worker over to confirm to my friend that the entire menu was vegan. The guy offered to bring out the package to show my friend. My Friend said the meat was tasty but my noodle dish as a whole didn't taste like anything. My friend had the udon soup, he said it was good and I guess he really liked it because he ate the entire thing and finished the broth too. The food was good, but it doesn't compare to places like Bo De, Au Lac and Mitasie 3. read more

#100Reviews2015 - Review No. 22 Wow, just wow. How is it that I've been here multiple times, had the roommates pick up take out multiple times, and yet, never wrote a review?! Well, here it is, sweetheart! Service is great, the owner is good about checking on you to make sure you're enjoying your sumptuously prepared vegan eats. And enjoy them you will. Hands down, my favorite items to order here are, in order, the spring roll with the realistic looking veggie shrimp, the BBQ Noodle salad, and the wonton soup. The proteins are flavorful, as are the salad dressings, and the portions are very generous - expect to leave here stuffed! The wonton soup is very tasty, and chock full of veggies, highly recommend. The pho is tasty for a delicious vegan alternative, as is the udon noodle soup. Really, I feel as though you can't go wrong with anything you order, and the prices are quite reasonable given all you get. The desserts offered include various cakes, but I've so far been way too full to try them! Highly recommend. read more

- Locale Destination - It's on S Tustin St and E Palmyra Ave in Orange. I wouldn't be able to find the place without Yelp!! 8 tables only inside - a few outside. It can be very packed. Expect waiting or call ahead for to-go. Decor is pretty simple. The staff were very friendly but seemed like headless chickens running around in the very tiny restaurant... They need a proper training. You can't expect great services at Asian restaurants in general... At least they were friendly, which is unusual and great. - Gluttony Expedition - They also got burgers, burrito, pad Thai, pho, chow-mein, lasagna, spring rolls... Spicy Cha Cha: The fake shrimp actually tasted good. They were covered by Panko bread crumbs which added nice crunchiness. The toppings on them were seasoned well and a bit spicy. The citrusy and salty dipping sauce was unique. Overall great dish - even for Carnivals. I love it. - Conqueror's Deduction - It's kinda hard to find a good Vegan/vegetarian places. This place does offer good flavors, decent pricing, and varieties on menu. It's located in kinda out of nowhere (at least to me), but I'll definitely come back for great VEGAN foods!! I do recommend for both vegetarians and non-vegetarians. read more

I was initially put off by the location and how cramped the space seemed. When we walked in there were a couple tables of customers finishing their meals. We were seated and given a one page menu, at first I was like is this it, that's all there is to choose from?! The menu seemed quite limited. I ordered the summer rolls and our server promptly brought them out. OMG yum and that was just the beginning of this vegan food fantasy come true. The summer rolls were so fresh and tasty I loved the crunch of the jicama paired with the flavor of the basil and of course the peanut sauce went great with this dish as well. We ate our summer rolls then ordered our meals and drinks. I ordered the BBQ Noodle bowl + Hazelnut Cappuccino and my BF ordered the lemongrass chicken + Thai tea. The server asked how I wanted my coffee and I said STRONG! He came out a couple minutes later with our drinks, mine was soooo good, nice and strong just like I ordered. My BF didn't care too much for his Thai tea, it was too sweet for his taste. I thought it was too sweet as well. Now on to the entrees. I got my noodle bowl and it had a couple of crispy rolls on top as well as mock beef, and chopped up veggies and noodles on the bottom. The mock beef was one of the best mock meats I've ever had! The BF got the lemongrass chicken and that was tasty too I really liked the flavor & crispiness of the "chicken". I really don't care for the ambiance here, but the food was so damn good that I have to come back again. read more

Loving Hut - Vegan Near Me - Orange, California

Place is tasty. I never know if I was spicy cha cha, bbq noodle, or seafood noodle bowl. If I want sweet then bbq noodle, if I want fried then spicy cha cha, and if I want lots of noodles then I get the seafood noodle bowl. I pretty much rotate between those three and have tried everything on the menu so those hit the spot. I like the appetizers: the chicken strips, and all the spring rolls are good good crispy or fresh. The only thing since I have ate here a million times is I get tired of the shrimp in the seafood noodle bowl but I like it when it is fried in the spicy cha cha so I think I would get the seafood noodle bowl without the shrimp next. All deserts are good too, my favorites are the chocolate or oreo types of cheese cakes. read more

How TF does this Loving Hut have 4 stars?!?!?! Ok, the customers who've visited this joint have obviously never been to the Loving Hut in MIRA MESA. First of all, I am extremely disappointed because I ordered 3 burritos with NO BEANS & EXTRA PROTEIN (that I got charged $2 extra for extra protein), 1 lucky lemongrass and 1 order of chk'n nuggets, all to-go since we are from Riverside County. All together I ended up paying $46. When I got my burrito, I was wondering what the heck this "mushy" stuff was in it. It was beans!! Freakin beans in my supposedly NO BEANS & EXTRA PROTEIN burrito. I was upset and was about to go back but I was just tired of driving around all day so I did not eat it. WHen I got home I opened all the burritos and they all had beans and very little protein!!! (See pictures). I was upset because the FIESTA ASADA BURRITO in MIRRA MESA only has: protein (and a ton of it), guacamole, and pico de gallo. MIRA MESA does not "fluff" their burritos with cheap ingredients like rice and beans. I could barely taste the protein in this very disappointing burrito. So we just ended up throwing it away. I hate to waste food, but when it is not made how I want it, and I got charged for it, it's highly BS that this franchise is extremely cheap to charge me $2 extra per burrito for extra protein that they failed to add in each burrito. The lucky lemongrass was okay. A bit dry, but taste was alright. The lucky lemongrass in the LOVING HUT MIRA MESA is way better. The chk'n nuggets were over-breaded (again, another cheap "fluff" tactic to give you less than what you paid for, and to make you think it's bigger than it really is). It was okay but took me 3 days to eat it because it's so bready and greasy that it was NOT at all enjoyable. I will not come back here because the quality of the food is a "2" from a scale of 1-10. The people are very nice though. Just wish they weren't cheap with the food and actually put protein in their dishes....and if customers ask for extra protein they should add it in if they're charging $2. MIRA MESA sure adds protein in their dishes for $2 more AND it's obvious that they add more. I should've just went to the Loving Hut in Claremont or Huntington Beach.......OR maybe I should've just settle for Veggie Grill. At least Veggie Grill really adds protein when you ask them to, yes you get charged extra but it's in there. This Loving Hut in Tustin is below mediocre. I am very disappointed. read more

Loving Hut, I heart you! My first "check-in," I used my friend's phone to check in! haahah Its a small cute place with modern decor. Very simple and clean! Lets cut straight to the chase! Veggie Wontons: Yummy! I like the filling a lot..had lots of mushrooms! Spring rolls: Fresh and Light! Had noodles, lettuce, shrimp and a few other veggies wrapped in rice paper. Philly Cheesesteak: SOO GOOD! Almost tastes like a real philly cheesesteak, but I think its better. Theres a slight twist to it that I cant put my tongue on it...maybe it has something to do with the "steak". Chicken wrap: Light dish as well! Very tasty! The "chicken" was a bit dry, but I think thats how it should be. Royal Noodle Soup: MY FAVORITE! Its almost an exact replica of bun bo hue ( I think thats what its called)! The beef really looks the real thing! Love the taste of the broth! It wasnt too spicy though. The large filled up the manfriend..FINALLY! House Burger with sweet potato fries: Me likey! Im not usually a fan of teriyaki, but it was pretty light and I barely tasted it. So that was a plus, in my opinion. The patty was delicious! Overall, this burger was juicy! Sweet Potato Fries: I want more! Everyone loved the mayo dipping sauce that came with it! Tiramisu: Not too shabby for Jen! It was crumbly and soft. It wasnt too sweet either. Thai Ice Tea: Just the way I like it! Service was great! Re-filled our waters constantly and always asked if we needed anything else! The owner, Doris, was serving us majority of the time! Love her! :) Must TRY (that includes you, non-vegetarians)!!! Enjoy! :) read more

Vegetarian WIN. I met up with my family here for a casual Saturday lunch. The place is quite small compared to the other Loving Hut locations I've been to, but service is just as good and the food came out even faster! We ordered the crispy wontons and fried eggrolls to start out with. Both were very good. Crispy wontons were filled with a vegetarian kind of ham/spam. My mom kept commenting on how pretty the eggrolls were rolled up (she would know how hard this is since she rolls up her own eggrolls at home). My brother thought the eggroll stuffing was too peppery, but I didn't notice. We also ordered 4 different kinds of juices/smoothies, although I think they had mixed up our order. Didn't make a difference, because the one smoothie they mixed up still tasted very good! We were supposed to get a Very Berry smoothie, but ended up with a Rose Lemonade, which was my favorite of the 4 we got. It didn't taste like lemonade, but I can definitely taste the rose flavor and that was my favorite part. We also got the Sunny Forest (a pretty green layered drink), but I didn't like the taste. I seriously thought it tasted like a tree and this was before I had known what the drink was called! My parents got carrot juice (which was served not cold enough and was warm by the end of our meal) and the Mango Tango (a mango smoothie that was good, but didn't really have a strong mango flavor). For entrees, we got Spicy Cha Cha (crispy fried shrimp), Deluxe Vegetables, Chow Mein, and a salad (not sure if it was the Heavenly Salad we ordered or not, but in Vietnamese we call it "goi"). Anyway, everything was good. But I do have to add that the Deluxe Vegetables (with little mock beef slices) and the Chow Mein were essentially the same exact dish, except one was served with yellow noodles and the other with steamed rice. Overall, it's a win. At least this vegetarian says so. read more

By far my favorite Vegan restaurant. Why have I not review yet?! The staffs are so warm and welcoming all the time. My favorite dishes are the BBQ noodles, pho (best in the OC) and the jackfruit salad. All the dishes are uniquely flavored. I like to think I'm a good Vietnamese cook, so I can be picky when it comes to the ingredients and seasoning. The pho broth is delicious! It's usually consistent in flavor. The broth is light but also very flavorful. It's a good ratio between soup and noodles. It taste like actual pho compared to most Vietnamese restaurants in the OC (vegan and non). It's so hard to find that authentic pho flavor now a days. If you want something cold, fresh and savory - the BBQ noodles always hit the spot for me! The jackfruit salad is super unique here. It's made with a combination of ingredients - herbs, jackfruits and seasonings! It's tangy and savory. They serve it with crunchy rice chips for you to scoop and eat. So many texture and flavor in just one dish! I salivate every time I think of it. So good! read more

I couldn't tell how ordering worked. If you want to eat there, you can just sit and they'll take your order rather than going up to the counter. I got the jackfruit salad after seeing all the rave reviews for it. I don't get it... Maybe jackfruits not for me. So I ended up ordering another dish - grilled noodles, while T had the Royal Noodle soup. I really liked both of those dishes. Just no jackfruit ever again. They get really busy and never brought utensils so I had to go up and ask for it. They also never refilled water. Service isn't amazing but they were busy the whole time I was there. There aren't that many vegan restaurants so when comparing to other vegan restaurants, this place gets 4 stars in my book. read more

Loving Hut - Jackfruit salad - Vegan Near Me - Orange, California

Loving Hut is pretty good, but not my favorite vegetarian/vegan place out there. Maybe if I try a couple of other dishes on their menu, I'll like it more, but my first time here I left feeling just okay about it. The location in Orange is a pretty small, casual restaurant. We came for dinner on a Monday night and it was pretty quiet. The restaurant is pretty bare and minimally decorated - I just remember seeing a lot of white walls - so I wouldn't give it 5 stars for atmosphere. But it's by no means bad, it's just simple. I tried the Mango Tango Smoothie, which I really loved. It tasted fresh and healthy and was really refreshing - I'd recommend trying one of their fruit smoothies. For the main dish, I decided to try the Spicy Cha Cha, which is "seasoned and battered shrimp" (aka fried?) with bell peppers, garlic, and onions served with salad and (ask for) brown rice. I had heard this is one of their more popular dishes, so I was expecting a lot. Overall...I did like it, and I thought the flavors tasted good, but it wasn't really the type of dish I'd expect from a healthy, vegan restaurant. The shrimp was fried, so it seemed pretty carb-heavy and I left feeling kind of bloated. If you're going to eat at Loving Hut because you want to eat healthy, then I don't think the Spicy Cha Cha is the best choice. My friend tried the Pad Thai and she said she really liked it. I thought it was pretty good as far as pad thai goes. It tasted no different from the pad thai you would get from a typical Thai restaurant, so if they made it using healthier/only vegan ingredients, then that's definitely a plus. They have a LOT of options on their menu and it's kind of a random potpourri of spring rolls, wontons, asian food (chow mein, fried rice, noodle dishes), to lasagna, to curry, to hamburgers and sandwiches, to burritos and fajitas. They also have a selection of cakes and chocolate for desserts. I don't know, I do appreciate that they are trying to cater to everyone by offering so much variety, but I feel like restaurants that do that tend to come out with food that's just okay, since they're trying to do too much. I can't really say if Loving Hut is like that, since I only tried two of their dishes. Another positive is that I would say the prices are on the lower end for the amount of food you're getting. Noodles, rice dishes, and burgers cost about $7-8, which is very reasonable. The portion sizes are pretty big too. I guess I would recommend trying Loving Hut if you're in the area and want to try a vegan place, but it wouldn't be first on my list if you're looking for somewhere healthy. read more

This is a great little vegan lunch place - I liked their picture menu, reasonable prices (for healthy food!), and large portions. Places like this are hard to find in an economy like this. For an appetizer, my friend and I shared a summer roll ($3.75) - it's jicama, carrot, basil, and tofu wrapped in rice paper served with peanut sauce. I was a little skeptical, but the flavors and textures in this dish came together so nicely. The jicama gave it a refreshing crunch whereas the tofu mellowed it out with a tender bite. Then there's the basil that brings it all together... I would order this at ANY restaurant. Most of the plate lunches come with a side of mixed green salad and a large scoop of white or brown rice. Brown rice is an additional $0.50. Eggplant Tofu ($5.95) - I am an eggplant fan and should really learn how to cook it for myself, so my eyes instantly deviated to this dish. They give you large chunks of eggplant stirfried with your choice of soft or fried tofu. I chose the soft tofu and it worked perfectly with the eggplant. I really liked the brown, oyster-looking sauce they stirfried this dish in - it wasn't too salty or too sweet... it was just right. Grilled Vegan Chicken ($6.75) - my friend ordered this "chicken" dish - it's a pretty basic stirfry of soy chicken in some sort of sauce. The "chicken" didn't resemble real chicken to me and had an interesting texture/flavor. It would have been nice if they stirfried the "chicken" in some vegetables like mushrooms or onions, but all they give you is a plate full of "chicken" and rice. This dish seemed a bit boring to me. I think this place is a great alternative to a regular restaurant if you're in the area and wanting to venture into Vegan territory. With all the options vegans have nowadays, it makes me wonder if I could live that kind of lifestyle... though I don't plan on giving up real meat quite yet. read more

Can you say disappointment 2 years in the making to finaally go and boi was it a let down. The cafe is definitely verrrrrrrrrrrrry cozy which isn't bad. But the service is seriously bad, not only were we 1 out of 3 tables there but i had to go to the counter at least twice to get something. I would understand if they were flying in and out trying to keep up with rush hour, but like i said it was fairly relaxed when we went grab a bite. I also have to say the foooooooooooooooooood hmmmmmmmmmm msg, sodium a seriously baaaaaaaad idea for a healthy/vegan dinner choice. Man that was salt heaven, I have never had such salty food before. I know I likee salt and I mean I really do like salt, but not that much salt. Tried the portobello burger and fries along with the coconut curry. The lemon infused water blllllllllllllllllllleh, asked for a non infused water. Sorry this is one place i won't visit if i had to choose again... read more

One day a week a co-worker and I attempt to be healthy by going meatless. Loving Hut hits the spot without making you feel like you're missing out on meat. My co-worker tends to favor the soups. He's had both the udon and royal noodle soup (which seems to be like bun bo hue) and both were good. The wonton soup fell a bit short - the wontons were not as good, but the broth was decent. I've had the jackfruit salad and the spicy cha cha - both are excellent meals. The pandan cake is also delicious. We also enjoy the egg rolls and the spring rolls. If you're in the mood for something meatless, without sacrificing flavor and variety - Loving Hut hits the spot! read more

Great Find on YELP! Food is fantastic- staff is courteous (service was a bit slow) don't know if this was an off day... If so - I might call in order and pick up.

Bun bo hue is awesome, the soup is flavorful and authentic. I'm not a fan of overly spicy foods and it was perfect here -- though you can probably order it extra spicy. "Chicken" burger with a side of sweet potato fries is quite possibly one of the best vegan burgers I've ever had in my life! One of the male servers suggested that next time I try it with the low-carb bread, along with slices of avocados (extra costs of course) and it'll be even better. Thanks for the tip cutie, holla! All in all, this place is one of my favorites in OC -- attractive vegan staff, delicious food and even greater lesser prices! read more

I don't have anything bad to say about this place... I don't have anything great to say either. If you are looking for vegan dishes that are simple and satisfying then this place will do the trick! Not going to win any Michelin stars anytime soon, but the food is tasty and the service is good. I had the BBQ noodles.....good though the noodles were on the dry side. I would have liked a sauce to go with them. My friend had the veggie burger.....pretty standard but tasty. If you're looking for five-star gourmet vegan food this is not the place for you.

So I gave up (red/white?) meat for Lent and sometimes it's challenge... I struggle to find a place that gives me the satisfaction that meat gives me. Fortunately I've found the perfect place to satisfy my cravings! You go Loving Hut! I got the Royal Noodle Soup which I think is similar to Bun Bo Hue (BBH)... And I definitely miss BBH. Loving Hut's version is SO flavorful; it's full of spices, "meats," tofu, and everything that is good about being alive. I mean it. I think if I could find places that does a version of BBH like this I could totally be a vegetarian. It's that good. The boyfriend got the Hainam Grilled Rice and the only problem he had with the dish was that he wished the soy filet was cut more before being served. Aside from that little problem he said it was delicious! I got the carrots and apple juice which was also a yummy way to end my night! You can tell it's freshly made and man, I love juice. I'm going to have to try all the other dishes they have. I'm totally eyeing their Golden Noodle Soup and their Wonton Soup.. Hehe read more

Loving Hut - Royal noodle soup!! - Vegan Near Me - Orange, California

Hubba Hubba. I am in love with this place. And I'm not even Vegan! Definitely frequented this joint quite a bit since my move to Orange. Tucked away in a small lot next to an E-vapor shop, it can be quite easy to miss, but don't because you will be pissed! I LOVE their golden nuggets with their house special sauce, which is reminiscent to chicken nuggets w/o the artificial bite of McD's nuggets. Their sauce is somewhat like a aioli of amazingness that is definitely finger AND spoon lickin' good. My favorite dish thus far has to be the Royal Noodle Soup. The kick of the soup with the freshly cut cabbage, sprinkle of cilantro, a dollop of the lemon grass sauce, jalapeno slices, noodles and of course, the mysterious meat that is not meat makes me jiggle in my seat from happiness. This always satiate my moods for something warm and comforting. Staff is always sweet and loving to their clients too! Now the only problem I have is to refrain from ordering my usual so I can try the rest of their delicious dishes... read more

If you're considering becoming a vegetarian but are on the fence because you don't know what to eat, try Loving Hut. They have great burgers! They don't taste just like beef but they are very tasty and make a great alternative to a standard hamburger. My favorite burger is the classic. I tend to like their American cafe and Asian choices the best. I don't care for the pasta dishes because the sauce is slightly sweet (just a personal preference, I don't like sauces on the sweet side) and I didn't care for the burrito much. My go-to options are the classic burger, (chick'n) tender wrap, BLT (although it's a bit greasy because it's pan-toasted with oil), heavenly (chick'n) salad. My husband loves their Pho, classic burger, BLT, crispy rolls, fried rice. They have a couple of new items on the menu that are quite tasty too, tangy orange and a cibatta sandwich that is like a fish sandwich. Staff are always friendly too. Whether you're vegetarian or not I recommend you give them a try. read more

Great food! I love having so many vegan options. Every time I come the food is always delicious

Vegan Asian restaurants are on the the up and up and as a veggie lover, I support the movement. However, I found the food here to be just so so. I had the wonton dumpling soup and my friend had the spicy noodle soup which seems to be a customer favorite. I found both the broth and dumplings to be very bland, and the fresh veg in the soup lacked diversity, it was almost all cabbage and carrot :( The rose and strawberry lemonades were good and service was welcoming. read more

I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE IT!!! I see this chain everywhere, but since I have a carnivore bf, I never really think to go here. The minute I made dinner plans with one of my gfs and she asked to find something at least semi healthy, I put Loving Hut into the suggestion hat. She took a quick glance at the yelp reviews and immediately agreed. Thanks Yelp for getting us here! They were out of the tofu so we ended up getting the spring rolls instead. It was such a treat for my friend to have "SHRIMP" spring rolls again since she is allergic to shellfish! SHRIMP SPRING ROLLS: Came out first and they blew both of us away. I was surprised at the fishy taste and nice texture of the faux shrimp. ROYAL NOODLE SOUP: Did not taste quite like Bun Bo Hue, but it was still a pretty darn good soup. Not exactly a sufficient enough substitute for bun bo hue IMHO, but rather just a pleasant and warming soup to have that I wouldn't mind ordering again. BBQ NOODLES: Simple but nearly as good as the real version. Topped with delicious, crispy egg rolls and slices of BBQ "meat". At first I was turned off by the sponginess of the meat, but after some time, it really grew on me! I made sure to take a little bit of everything back home to my meat eater bf without his knowing it was vegan, and he thought everything was really tasty! He did comment that the meat had a strange texture, but it was definitely not a deal breaker! When I finally broke the news to him that everything he ate was Vegan, he was pretty floored. The real cherry on top was that everything we got was priced around $5-10! Real quality, real food, for a great price! My meat loving bf and I will definitely be back, over and over again! read more

This is a nice spot to find a good range of vegan options! We ordered fresh spring rolls, lemongrass chicken and chow mein noodles along with a mango smoothie! The food was pretty delish! The noodles were a lil clumpy and the chicken was somewhat too soy-y but these are small things as there was really nothing to complain about! The service was good and I want to go back and try more dishes at this place. read more

Great fried rice with tofu. Wonton soup is also delish. Beyond burgers are yummy, too. One of my go-to veggie spots. Love the food and really nice people. read more

Great little fast and friendly spot for a quick casual bite. Of course totally vegan and delicious. A few highlights on the menu: Crispy rolls- crispy and filling, but not heavy or greasy Golden Noodle soup - flavorful broth love the mushrooms Golden Tofu - Fried tofu with a dipping sauce what is not to love Delight Veggie - the sauce was flavorful however a little salty for me but it tasted really good. Pad Thai - my daughter loves their pad Thai - I like it but not as much as other places that we frequent. Oh and Dessert happens too - they have cheesecake Oreo is delish! read more

Loving Hut - Spicy Cha Cha is really good. - Vegan Near Me - Orange, California

What a find! They're kind of hard to find: they're in between the dentist and the insurance store. It's a little hole-in-the-wall but I thought their food was great! We all ate the summer rolls, I tried the pho, my grandma ordered the wonton soup, my mom had the spicy cha cha and my dad had the grilled noodles. The summer rolls were good! I enjoyed the jicama inside :) The veggie pho had a deliciously bold herb flavor! I enjoyed it and would order it again! The wonton soup was full of broccoli and cauliflower! And the vegan wontons were an interesting change of pace. I liked them. They tasted good and had good texture. My mom and dad didn't really care much for the spicy cha cha or the grilled noodles. Personally, I think the spicy cha cha is a good substitute for vegans who would like some fried shrimp! It was a treat to eat vegan! I feel healthier already :P read more

This is my update review. It seems that this restaurant improved a lot. I like their new menu and the addition of Jackfruit Salad, Soy Seafood Noodle bowl, and their Pad Thai is yummy. I love their Jackfruit salad too. Royal Noodle soup, Spicy Cha Cha, Chow Mein are still good. It is hard to choose. I also love their Summer Rolls. This is definitely my favorite Loving Hut. The food is so tasty here. Unfortunately, the place is kind of too small to dine in. I usually buy to go and looks like a lot of others also order to go. I see a lot of people during lunch and dinner eat in the restaurant. It's a successful business. Their phone number is saved in my cell phone now. Thanks Loving Hut for your love and delicious dishes! read more

I've always been a meat-and-potatoes kinda gal but this place is seriously making me question my consumption choices. Loving Hut is a cute little restaurant on Tustin Street between Chapman Avenue and Palmyra Avenue. It sits in the middle of a mini plaza which can get easily "lost" in its surroundings but don't let the meager exterior fool you. This place is truly a hidden gem. Winners: Heavenly salad Spicy Cha Cha Soft chow fun Pad Thai Losers: Spring rolls Crispy chow fun Honorable mentions: BBQ noodle bowl Fabulous Mongolian Lemongrass sensation My go-to dish is the Heavenly salad. The fiance and I ALWAYS order this as our starter. It tastes so fresh and light. I love the crisp texture and the sweetness of the dressing. This a MUST order! The spicy cha cha, soft chow fun and pad thai are also winners because of the great flavors they all pack. My only issue with the chow fun is that they don't mix the noodles well (or even at all). When it arrives on your table the veggies are on top and the noodles look like they literally just came from the package and are still sticking to each other. As for the losers, I didn't find the spring rolls and crispy chow fun to be that exciting. The spring rolls were underwhelming and I prefer soft and flat over crispy when it comes to noodles. I'm conflicted with the honorable mentions. The only good thing about the BBQ noodle bowl was the slices of very flavorful protein and the crispy rolls. Personally, I was never really a fan of vermicelli bowls so I felt hesitant ordering this but if you love them, then by all means try it. The fabulous mongolian and lemongrass sensation were both inconsistent with flavors. One day they tasted great and the other--bland. Overall, Loving Hut has recently become one of my regular spots. Vegetarian or not--everyone should try this place at least once. I may not love all the dishes on their menu but what they are consistent with is the portions--fairly generous. And even if it's a lot, you don't feel "guilty" or miserably stuffed after your meal. read more
