The lunch deal is $15 for a plate of three choices. It was big enough for us to share.
We got fried rice (had a peppery kick), the rice noodles and some tofu with vegetables.
In total there were like 7-9 different dishes.
We also ordered spring rolls and summer rolls. Both great!
They have indoor seating, but no air con.

Amazing! I come here regularly and the food is consistently great, and the customer service is great too. I was just here yesterday and can wait to go back. My favorite is the Banh Mi. The Pho is a crowd pleaser too!

This place is a gem. We both got a plate that included three different hot foods. We really liked the Singapore noodles and the basil tofu. But overall, everything we got was so good. Prices were reasonable too. I think it was ~$15 for each plate and they FILL those plates. I would definitely recommend The Vegan Shop if you are looking for a place to eat in Hilo.

I’ve been waiting to come here for a few days and finally made it. The pho was delicious the broth was flavorful and tons of vegetables and tofu! They also have a selection of hot items. This tofu was a nice addition. Will defiantly be back!

Just a short 2-minute walk from the famous Hilo Farmers Market, there’s this family-run vegan restaurant. They offer a fully vegan menu—we tried the Vietnamese spring rolls and two different noodle dishes. The owner and their family were very friendly. The location isn’t the nicest, but with food this good, no complaints!

Loved this place, the lunch plate had several unique tofu dishes with different flavors and textures. Would definitely return.

Food served out of steam trays but excellent flavors.

I love everything about this place. We had the buffet and I chose the fish, the pork belly, and the greens. I wish I could have sampled everything because it all looked good and the items I ordered were amazing. The staff was incredibly friendly and very helpful. Atmosphere was simple and homie. I really wanted to come back and try some other items from the buffet but they were closed on the last two days of our stay. #Veganuary
As someone who is really not a fan of vegan meats for the most part, I was absolutely floored by how good this was. I got the spicy rice, “pork” belly, and the tofu patty. All of them are really good, especially the rice. The lady working was nice enough to give me a little extra of the “beef”, which was also really amazing.
I’m going back tomorrow before I fly out.

We all ordered from the buffet bar and got 3 items each- everything was amazing. We especially enjoyed their unique tofu creations. The noodle dish was better than the rice IMO. The tofu dishes were quite creative and I highly recommend stopping by especially since it’s $15/plate for 3 items and the serving size is generous.

This place is such a gem! The most delicious food I’ve had on Big Island, and insanely affordable. Highly recommended for everyone and a must-visit when in Hilo.
The vegan pho is to die for, and the best pho broth I’ve ever had. Everything was amazing, we revisited several times. :)
The staff are super friendly too.
