Nice vegan food to get here. Blessed the service was on point & solid value. Clean to use even for restroom. Love the sushi & clay pot fish served to order in house fresh.

Everything was so great, but only the rainbow dessert was so little, not as a big plate with 6 slides anymore. No heart shape chocolates either.

Dishes were tasty and all staff were extremely friendly and hospitable. My only complaint was in 2 of the dishes, the protein came out cold, like it had been sitting out. Overall I would return again and would recommend

The best Vegan restaurant in the area. Every time our family travel to California, we always dined at this restaurant.

The server was sniffling and was not wearing a mask while taking food orders and bringing the food to us. I really hope it was just allergies!

Came here exclusively to try the vegan pho, and it did not disappoint! The broth was light, flavorful, and delicious. I’m not usually a huge fan of fake meats, but the vegan chicken was great and added substance to the light dish. The noodles tasted fresh and not overly cooked.
The atmosphere is moody and upscale (as are the prices), so it seems more appropriate for dinner than lunch. The menu is extensive, so I would definitely go back to try more.
FYI parking can be difficult as it’s downtown by the Disney concert hall. You can park in the lot below for $12, or walk a few blocks from the red line.

One of the best plant based restaurants in Orange County and has a great raw vegan 🌱 menu as well!!!! Must try.
I love the living curried wild rice 🌾 , durian addict shake, scotch on the rocks and tirawmisu desserts the mostest!!! It’s top tier quality. Also the kelp noddle chow mein in the fountain valley location, and the living burrito in the downtown LAX location
Highly recommend and the people / employees here are smart and nice. the owner is sweet and so amazing!!! ✨✨✨
I love this place and love coming with my man, my friends and loved ones 😍 such a beautiful space and environment to be in.

Au Lac was the first fully vegan restaurant I went to in the late 1990s. It was great then, and has only gotten better since. So creative and delicious, from apps to desserts, juices to entrees.

We shared a wonderful meal at Au Luc, hosted by My. The restaurant’s unique opening time is rooted in numerology, symbolizing flexibility and fluidity. The ambiance was exquisite, and the flavors reflected a harmonious blend of Vietnamese, French, and Chinese traditions—crafted with love in two kitchens. Even our friend, a lifelong vegetarian, delighted in trying a “shrimp that never swam” at this all-vegan restaurant.

The food here is 100% vegan and amazingly delicious! I invited a friend to join me and she was so impressed with the restaurant and the food. The service was excellent, too. We hadn't seen each other in a long time and were happy that the music wasn't too loud.
I recommend Áu Ląc to anyone who enjoys great food., even non-vegans.
