Tuệ Tâm (Vietnamese Vegan Restaurant)

"Had a fantastic experience dining in. We went in on a cold evening, and the owner suggested we order 2 different noodle soups. I wish I could remember the names - but the ones pictured are both delicious! I was pleasantly surprised that the broths tasted very different - one a bit sweeter and milder, another spicy. All the “meat” was tofu based, and they did a good job with imitating various meat textures. I would recommend adding more meat/protein overall to the noodle soup. It would help with staying full for longer."

"My fav Vegan restaurant now! The place is clean with good food. We tried Bun Bo Hue, Bun Rieu and Hu tiu mi. They were pretty decent. The soup base for Bun Rieu and Hu tiu mi are a little sweet. I think the sweetness come from all the slow cook veggies. It’s all good but need to tone down sweetness a bit. Highly recommend!"

"This vegetarian newcomer is well worth your time. Houston is well on its way to becoming a vegan capital thanks to new eateries such as Tue Tam. You can miss this place driving too fast down Bellaire as it's a small, quaint little spot. Tue Tam offers a hot deli of vegetarian dishes that are to be paired with rice. You can choose three unique dishes-- you'll find that generosity is well practiced here. My family and I came for lunch and we prefer noodle soup dishes. This place did not disappoint as we tried the bun rieu, hu tieu, and bun bo hue. The bun rieu was sweet and sour, the hu tieu not as sweet and more savory, and the bun bo hue was spicy and deep in flavor. All three dishes were delicious and are stuffed to the brim with vegan ingredients that you'd never know weren't real. All in all, a great dining experience and not one to be missed."

"This vegetarian vermicelli noodle (bún riêu) is so good!!! There is also a house made hot sauce, side veggies that completes the dish. After having it here, I keep coming back for more..."
