Total fail

Waiter was very confused when we asked for no meat or egg, and then told us it could not be done. We left without ordering.

Cons: No options.

All you can eat - made fresh to order

My husband fancied eating Chinese food so found this place on happy cow!

It’s an all you can eat place - optionally or dishes are also individually priced so you can order what you like off the menu.

You could order up to 5 dishes at a time. There was a €2 penalty for any dishes that weren’t finished, this was stated on the menu but wasn’t an issue with our group of 8 adults and 2 children!

I had edamame, avocado maki, mango maki, fried rice with soy and vegetables, steamed vegetable gyozas, plus tofu with vegetables. I also tried the miso soup and tempura vegetables. I liked everything but wasn’t keen on the tempura vegetables.

Some Veg Options

This a Chinese buffet restaurant except that instead of choosing from a buffet, you order as much as you want from the menu for a fixed price - rather unusual. They actually do give you everything you want. Food quality is okay.

They do have a number of veg options marked on the menu. The miso soup was good (you never know at regular restaurants if the miso has fish ingredients, so beware). They have yasai gyoza which was definitely veg. They made veg tempura which was fried in the same oil they fry the fish - and it was easy to taste it - so I didn’t eat much of that. They served me a plate of vegetables which seemed veg but the sauce was suspect. Avocado sushi was fine. Spring roll was okay but greasy.

I didn’t eat much of anything because they bring so much.

The big problem was at the end they brought me the special tofu mixed veg I’d requested and it was covered in meat sauce. I’ve had this problem in mainland China - where they’ll say it’s a vegetarian tofu dish but put meat-based sauce on it (I think they actually thinks that’s still vegetarian).

So, it’s an interesting place with a very nice interior, but very risky for vegetarians / vegans.

Pros: Interesting setup and nice interior, Kind of fun, actually, Cheap at lunch time

Cons: Risky as to whether food is really veg or not

Buffet sort of

It's an Asian buffet style restaurant where you order as much as you want for a foxed price however rather than queuing at the buffet they serve the food to your table which means food is always freshly prepared.

Pros: Lots of vegan vegetarian choice
