Best Chinese

Must stop if you are in Redmond. Only true vegan Chinese restraunt left in the area. Many dishes you won't find anywhere else.

Pros: Many unique house made dishes

Finally found a vegan Chinese Restaurant

Tasty and authentic. The steamed dumplings were excellent. I could come here just for those!. The tea selection is extensive. I had the West Lake Dragon Well green tea (Xi Hu Long Jing Cha). It was very good.
We found the fried rice a little too oily and too salty. But you may not, we don’t use oil or salt when eat at home.
For us when we come next, and there will be a next time , we would get the plain steamed brown rice, steamed vegetables, and the steamed dumplings. But we will keep our taste buds open as this is our first time. I am curious to try the hot pots.


This is our second time and it did not disappoint. Better than the first. We went with the clay pot vegetable and tofu hot pot. Very tasty.

Only vegan place in the area

Nice place with friendly staff! They do a great job sealing takeout containers. I’m not really a fan of most Asian food, but the rama garden with peanut sauce is tasty!

Decent vegan place

Love that it's a vegan place that's been around so long! The food itself was decent but nothing to write home about. Could have been a little more flavor and a little less fatty and sugary

it’s pretty good but sometimes repetitive

Some of the dishes seem like they all just use the same sauce on different bases. I really like the laksa and the golden fritters. Been going here for over a decade even before I was vegan and it’s a family favorite.

No service

We had been to Teapot last Nov and loved the food however, we were craving good Thai food and went to this place a couple of days ago. Google said it closes at 8.30pm and we were there at 7.45pm but they wouldn't allow us saying they were not going to serve us any food because the place is closing. Why say 8.30 when they stop taking orders at 7.45? totally disappointed with the customer service (no service?)

Best food in town

Amazing food and service. The owner is needing support to stay open after 30 years and you won’t regret trying it out. I recommend the bo bo platter and the Thai tea.

Nice food

The mandarin crispy tofu was awesome. The wontons were too sweet though instead of salty.

Didn’t taste fresh

I ordered the Laksa and the tofu tasted stale. The dish would have been much better if the tofu were fresh. I don’t believe it is typically like this after reading other reviews. #Veganuary

Yum!

I was so sad when Teapot moved from Capitol Hill in Seattle to the Redmond location. They are one of the original vegan restaurants in this region! The food is so, so good.

Delightful

Lots of amazing fun options. I've brought carnivore coworkers here and they didn't even realize the place was vegan - they just thought it was a neat menu.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Come atmosphere

Cons: Can find better versions of dishes elsewhere

absolute heaven for vegetarians

as a vegetarian it’s usually hard to find a menu with a verity of options thus making it redundant to eat outside. i loved the wide variety of the menu!! everything was fresh and tasty!

my personal favorite were the kung pao and the wontons 🤍

Pros: lots of options!

Cons: slow service

Delicious Kung Pao tofu

Lots of vegan options making it hard to decide. Portions were shareable. For lunch we ordered 2 dishes plus rice and had some to bring home as well. Update 8/2022 brought my fam for dinner and tried Crispy Mandarin Tofu, Pad See Ew and Pot Stickers also all incredibly tasty!

Updated from previous review on 2022-05-21

Pros: Large shareable single dishes from 14.95-18.95, Delicious food like Crispy Mandarin Tofu, Friendly with lots of space between tables

Cons: No lunch menu with smaller portions

A bit pricy, good if you want something in the area, food is mostly sweet

I've eaten here a few times. I find the prices a bit high compared to other places.
Also, the taste doesn't really suit my palette. Most of their food is sweet. Their satay and vegetable chow mein are really nice, though, if you want something more savoury.
If you want tea, make sure to ask for the drink menu if you don't immediately receive it; they have a lot of options!

Great Service, Great mandarin Chickn

My partner and I came here for Valentine’s Day dinner after checking the hours on their website which said they were open until 9:30, but we were told when they got there that they actually had just decided to close at 8:30 but had not updated this information anywhere. Fortunately, the owner was very apologetic and accommodating and gave us free tea, dessert, and soup to make up for it which were all great! His reccomendatjon of the mandarin chickn was my favorite but the wontons were also very good. This place would be a 5 star with some better communication of hours but we will be back because of the customer service, friendliness of staff, and good food!

Vegan Chinese

Lots of yummy options. Some of the food is a little sweeter than I’d like. We recommend the veggie beef chao mian and the Mongolian tofu. Picking up was quick and easy.

Pros: All vegan

Cons: Expensive

Delicious Vegan Fare on the Eastside

I’ve been a customer for years. The lunch options are delicious and offer a variety of items on one plate. For dinner, I’m drawn to the laksa, stir-fries, and gold fingers. Love the flavors and the owner and staff are so wonderful.

Pros: All vegan, Friendly service , Delicious

Takeout was just okay

I’m not sure about dining in, but the takeout I received was not very flavorful. They have great vegan options and maybe I just ordered the wrong thing.

I'm impressed!

food was great - our server recommended the laksa and we weren't disappointed. the mandarin crispy tofu was literally just battered, fried slabs of tofu, but it was delicious (though not at all spicy as the menu indicated). the potstickers were just okay honestly, they were cooked nicely but the filling was a bit boring; I think I would have enjoyed them more as a nice complement to the tofu if I hadn't already ordered rice but now I know for next time😄really really good, I look forward to visiting again!

Pros: friendly service, flavorful, quiet location

Cons: tip automatically added to bill

Food was mostly great

The mapo tofu was delicious but the Singapore noodles we ordered were a bit under seasoned for our tastes. But the real star of the show was the chili oil they have on the side. That stuff was amazing on everything.

So many options

This place was great! I had the sweet and sour nuggets, and my husband had the almond fried tofu.

We were staying in Bellevue for a night and had searched for options on the day we were coming in, this is a place we would make the trip just to have again.

Overpriced and disappointing

I came here because the reviews said they had a lot of options and that the food was delicious, but the food was not good. Yes, there are plenty of options but the quality of the food is poor.
I got the wonton soup and it tasted burnt, over salty, nasty filling in the wonton. Like frozen vegetable bags quality. You know, the frozen peas? Yeah.
I also got the mandarin crispy tofu. It’s just a rectangle of tofu with a batter that is kind of crispy but mostly taste wrong because the inside is soft like uncooked dough. I also got the gourmet Chow mein. This dish tasted the best out of all of them but was lacking strongly and vegetables. It was mostly noodles and sauce. I figure that if I’m going to pay for a gourmet dish, that there would at least be more vegetables. No. It was so disappointing that I asked for my food to go and couldn’t finish dining in.

I ended up paying $55 for food that I did not like. I mentioned that the soup was burnt and they charged me $12 for it anyways. On top of being overpriced, the waitress added her own tip to my bill which was nine dollars. I was there for less than 30 minutes. She came to my table twice. I hope that they do this to everyone, because if she did this to me in fear that I might not tip her for the bad service, then that’s [censored] up.
Oh well, never coming back. I would honestly prefer to get the impossible whopper from Burger King. Not to mention, the waitress shushed my child whenever she was taking my order. My child is on the autism spectrum and stems(makes noises and moves) to feel comfortable. My daughter wasn’t making that much noise. Still she was sushed . They didn’t sit well with me.
