“ Unbelievably good. Most authentic Vietnamese spot we've been to. Got the mushroom tofu, pickled veggies, and the coconut peanut dessert. As soon as we finished eating we got more food to go for later. Super friendly staff as well. ”
“ I love this little place. I've lived within walking distance of this place for the first two decades of my life and like many Asians, I was used as child slave labor in restaurants and at the Flea Market next door lol. So yea, I really liked having the warm tofu pudding with the sweet ginger syrup. Matcha laced soy milk. Tofu chunks. Imitation meat stuff galore. Andddddd you get to enjoy that cash cash discount hehehe. The ladies here are funny too and hella take care of me 20 years vegetarian for me this year. Crazy. ”
“ A quick and convenient vegetarian spot for take out. I'm a huge tofu lover. Whenever my mom doesn't eat meat for certain days according to the lunar calendar, my dad buys us some tofu from Dong Phuong Tofu. I'm not vegetarian but I wouldn't mind not eating meat for a couple days if I wanted to. There are a lot of hot ready made vegan/vegetarian dishes for take out. I really like their spicy lemongrass tofu. I recently tried their egg stir fry noodles with tofu, woodear mushroom, cabbage, and sliced carrots. Great portions and so yummy! I even had the spicy lemongrass tofu to my noodles. Cash only! #supportsmallbusinesses ”
“ Yummy hole in the wall restaurant! The noodle soups and fried tofu were delicious and good value. Definitely will be back to try more dishes and for the fried tofu!! ”
“ Such a cute little shop. The soy milk was so good, I got the unsweetened one- so I could add sugar to my liking. The dishes were also soo good, love the: spicy lemongrass tofu, "chicken", and do chua! ”
“ Cash only. Only thing I will say is that I like the service at their other location better. My family and I have been coming for many, many years. Before I had Gavin! It was the day before I was due to fly out, Gavin and I have this thing called, "No meat Tuesdays" so I typically get $10 worth of their fried tofu (plain, pepper, mushroom) at their McKee location. Just make some rice, add soy sauce, and Sriracha! For Gavin minus the Sriracha. I asked Gavin a few times if he still wants to do it but he insist on continuing even if I won't be home. I am happy places like this exist. I don't have to put effort into the kitchen during our no meat days. To clarify, we follow the lunar calendar. If there is a no meat day that week then we don't do Tuesday but if we don't have then we do it. Like today. It's our no meat day so both of us are following it, instead of our Tuesday ritual. Parking can be terrible. A lot to offer but I am sure it is laced w/ sugar and/or MSG. ”
“ I was headed to another tofu spot but then drove past dong phuong so decided to head in. They have a great selection of tasty cooked vegetarian dishes to order. They sell them in different sizes, so I got 2 of the small portion tofu to go. I dont remember which ones I ordered but it was all very yummy. They also have a good selection of soy milk and vegetarian spring rolls. The service was really friendly and I would definitely come back to try more of their tofu. ”
