Be aware the vegan options are fried/cooked in the same as non - Edit
I used to work here years ago, so things may have changed (feel free to ask), but I've warned vegans that they fry the vegan stuff in the same oil as the meat, and there's no vegan-only surfaces/pots/pans, etc. If you don't have a problem with that, carry on!

The best vegan Chinese food. Look no further. - Edit
Every time I’m in Wilmington, I gorge myself on Uncle Lims. All their vegan dishes are clearly marked and even the meat dishes can be made vegan with tofu or soy protein.

The best in town - Edit
Uncle Lim's is seriously the best vegan Asian food I've had here in Wilmington. They have a dedicated menu just for vegans. Though on their menu it says vegetarian, it's all vegan. Their soy protein is handmade and delicious! They fry their vegan food in a separate fryer, which is a huge plus! Their prices have been reduced too, so it's more affordable. I highly recommend this family-owned business!
Read morePros: Large vegan selection, Friendly customer service, No cross-contamination
Cons: Hard to find an updated menu online

Happy Find! - Edit
If it were 20 years ago, I would give 4-5 stars. But, with today’s plethora of delicious vegan foods, and ever improving vegan options, this is now what I consider average.... which is very good!

Hit the spot! - Edit
One of my favorite things to eat is vegan Chinese food. It has been 2 years since I have had some. This place reallllllly delivered. We ordered the firecracker soy protein, lo mein, drumsticks, and orange peel soy chicken. It was all fantastic. I really love the firecracker soy. The people who work their are very friendly and accommodating. Just ask what's vegan and they'll help you out. It's a small place but who cares with food like this. It is a bit pricy. It should be listed as at least $$.

Great food, nice people - Edit
It is difficult to choose a good Asian restaurant when you're in a new city, but I went online and read some reviews and decided try Uncle Lim's. We LOVED it! The food was delicious...not greasy...often difficult to find with Asian food. Fresh veggies, not over-cooked and the mock meat dishes were spectacular! Even the rice was exceptionally good. Also many vegan and vegetarian choices. Portions were more than enough to satisfy our hunger. Restaurant was not fancy, but very clean (very important to me), and the people were very friendly and conscientious. I really hope they succeed and expand. We were only visiting Wilmington, but when we go back, this will definitely be at the top of our list. I would give it 5 stars, but a non-vegetarian restaurant can only get 4 on this website, so I give it a 4+. My husband and I highly recommend this place!

Amazing Vegan Asian Food - Edit
This is my new favourite Asian restaurant. Everyone is really nice there and the food is fabulous. My boyfriend use to love General Tso chicken before he went vegan so he got that with the soy protein (which is vegan; they include all of the ingredients of the soy protein on the menu) and I got the Firecracker Soy Protein. Both were amazing!! The soy protein has a nice texture and the sauces are really tasty. The atmosphere in the restaurant is a bit lacking though. It's in the old China Garden in the Food Lion plaza on Independence; they haven't changed much of the interior or the China Garden sign. It's not the best place to eat-in, but the abundance of vegan/veggie options and execution more than make up for it.
Read morePros: Great food, Lots of veggie/vegan options (mock meat), Friendly staff
