Madam Tran Restaurant sits on Đào Duy Từ in Hanoi's Old Quarter, a street that feeds into the dense residential and commercial grid of Hoàn Kiếm. With over 3,100 Google reviews and a 4.7 rating, it draws consistent traffic from both locals navigating the phố cổ and visitors working through the neighborhood's eating options.
The menu spans Vietnamese standards alongside a dedicated vegan selection — an combination that's less common in the Old Quarter, where most spots lean entirely one direction or the other. The vegan offering makes it a practical stop for mixed groups, where one diner's dietary constraints would otherwise split the table.
The address puts it slightly off the main tourist drag of Hàng Bạc and Đinh Liệt, on a stretch that still sees foot traffic but skews toward residents and repeat visitors rather than first-night arrivals. That positioning is reflected in the review volume — a number that takes sustained, regular patronage to accumulate, not just a spike from travel guides.
For Hoàn Kiếm, where coffee shops and pho counters dominate the ground floor of most buildings, a restaurant that handles both traditional Vietnamese cooking and vegan alternatives under one roof occupies a specific niche. It functions as a coffee shop as well, meaning the visit doesn't have to be built around a full meal. The rating consistency across a large sample suggests the kitchen handles volume without significant drop-off — relevant on a street where lunchtime crowds move quickly.
The food was great. The service provided by Dee was top of class, making great suggestions for the menu, including encouraging us to order more just in case the suggestion was not enough, preventing food waste. Good atmosphere, with AC and light piano playing.
I order the Banh Xeo and the Nem Lui and it was sooooooooo good! Ana was very helpful. She made sure my food was good and wrapped them neatly for me. All I had to do was to eat it! Service is great and the food was amazing. The value for its price is 👌🏽
Walked by and Anna helped me decide what food to get. She suggested Bánh xèo, which is like a fresh spring roll with a crispy rice something that gets out it. It's pictured in the menu but she helped me to prepare it and it was very delicious! I also ordered the mango Lassi, my first time having it, and it was also very good. Very good place, Anna was very kind and helpful and introduced the foods to me as I'm new to them (my first day in Hanoi though I've been in Vietnam one month now. Highly recommend, I'd gladly come back!
Wonderful selection of vegetarian food, which I appreciate! I ordered the Ban Xeo, which was so good! Pancake was crispy, mushrooms and onions were juicy. A kind lady, Jaan(?), had great service: she brought over rice paper, and a pair of scissors. She helped me to cut my pancake into small pieces, and wrapped them into rice paper rolls! I was so grateful and touched 😃 warm and lovely experience. I had their mango juice, which was so good! Really thick and full of mango 😍🥭
