8 Monkeys Vietnamese restaurant

Carnegie Vietnamese restaurant loved for pho and bun cha with a genuinely strong vegan menu.

Casual, modern Vietnamese dining room that gets loud and full on weekends. reviewers describe a cosy, sometimes buzzy atmosphere with service that can stretch thin at peak times.

No MSG used in cooking (called out by reviewers), an extensive vegan/vegetarian menu with mock-meat alternatives, BYO with a 5% cash discount, and regional dishes rarely found elsewhere (mi quang, banh khoc, ox-tail pho).

Reviewers with direct Vietnamese/Hanoi experience praise specific dishes as authentic (best bun cha outside Hanoi), though one detailed critical review disputed the execution of several traditional dishes.

Mixed. many reviewers call it reasonably priced and generous for the quality, but a vocal minority found specific dishes overpriced for the portion.
