Great place to go with non veg folks

I went with my family (non vegans) and didn’t tell them it was a fully vegan restaurant and until dessert time and they absolutely loved it. Really good food and a cute part of town

Delicious, friendly, all vegan Asian fare!

Took us a long time to check this place out because they weren't totally vegan at first. Once we finally did, we were beyond delighted! The food is delicious, the service has been excellent and the last time we stopped in, it was packed! Everyone was having a great time and the energy was friendly and fun. It was a Sunday around brunch-time and we were kind of in a hurry, so we reluctantly left. (They're closed on Saturday, so by Sunday, everyone is chomping on the bit for Bok Choy!)

We've met friends there for dinner on a weeknight and shared a friendly, peaceful meal together. One of my favorite places to chow on Alamo Heights side of town!

Positive staff experience

Unsure why the other reviews for staff interaction are negative. Management must have made changes.

Pros: All Vegan, Huge Portion , Great spicy level

100% plant based

The website says they can make vegan options. When visiting the one on Broadway I was happy to find out they are 100% plant based! All Vegan! The portions were large and they even have cupcakes! The sweet n sour chik’n is everything u would want it to be. Customer service was great.

Pros: 100% vegan! , Good customer service , Large portions

Bad service

Bad service. Waitress never brought us plates and we were not greeted upon entry. Food wasn’t very good. The noodles tasted & looked like styrofoam

Pros: Vegan

Cons: Nasty

Bad First Impression

I will say right up front that I can't speak to the quality of the food at this establishment. On a recent visit, the uncleanliness, high prices (especially for a walk up counter), and unfriendliness of the staff turned us away before we ordered.

Overseasoned too much sauce

I have been here several times and each time i felt the food had too much seasoning and too much sauce. During busy times the staff also does seem stressed and not as friendly.

Great!

I came here with my dad (non vegan) for lunch and they were pretty busy and despite the staff being a little stressed they were still very polite and kind. We got the spring rolls with the peanut sauce for an appetizer and we only got two rolls plus they weren’t anything special either (but they were still good). If you’re getting an appetizer they might not be able to feed a big party unless you get more than one. But our main course was SOOOOO GOOOD! I got the curry and it had sooo much flavor and I was completely satisfied after I finished. FYI for people who are sensitive to texture you will probably not like the tofu but the waiter said you can substitute it for a different mock-meat. But overall we both really liked the food!

Pros: Can easily make items non-vegan vegan, Very friendly staff, Great flavor and portion size

Cons: Super small appetizers

Pretty Good

To be fair with my review - I want to disclose that I'm not a huge fan of substitute meats. I live 5 minutes from this place and finally wanted to see what all the rave reviews were about. Overall, everything tasted very salty. The pineapple fried rice was good, but didn't taste much like pineapple, just seemed like regular fried rice. Sweet n' sour chik-n was ok. There was way too much sauce and it was too sweet. The portions were good - enough for two. The service wasn't too friendly or quick. The food reminded me of panda express.

yuuuuuummmmm

I finally visited this location a few months back, and was very surprised! The food is soooo good. I ordered spring rolls, and the peanut sauce was on point! I ordered other items, and it was all so delicious. It can be pricey, in my opinion, but when you see how much you get you'll see why.

Pros: lots of options, delicious food

Cons: a tad pricey, but you do get a good portion of veg

AMAZING!!!

We ordered the Beef and Broccoli, Pad Thai Noodles, Sweet & Sour "Chik'n" and Yellow Curry all of the dishes were DELICIOUS. Authentic tastes, everything was cooked to perfection and VEGAN! We were blown away at how authentic the food tastes. The Beef & Broccoli was the best I've had, EVER. We will definitely dine here again. The servers were so nice and knowledgeable. Great Experience!

Pros: Delicious Food!! Authentic Taste Hot and Good!, Great & Fast Service! Servers are knowledgable , Affordable Price for the Delicious food!

Cons: NONE

Beyond AMAZING!!!

I had the iced citrus, ginger, green tea with sweet and sour brussel sprouts to start and the bbq beif boon as my entree. The brussel sprouts were awesome and I loved the peanuts on top for added crunch. Honestly, words can't describe how amazing the bbq beif was. It's on a bed of rice noodles with the beif on top and tons of fresh veggies. The fresh mint, bean sprouts, shredded carrots, and cucumber solidified it as my new fave.

Pros: Tons of vegan options, great energy in the restaur

Cons: Too many great options.

My New FAVORITE Spot!

I'm Vegan here in SA, so I only go to a handful of places when I go out to eat. Bok Choy exceeded my expectations and has a menu that is mostly Vegan with almost all of it able to be easily made Vegan (everything but the cheese rangoons)! I have now gone twice with my boyfriend and combined we have tried the Fried Rice, Vietnamese Fried Spring Rolls, Sweet and Sour Chik-n, Hunan Beef, and General TSO. I can't pick a favorite dish, because I LOVE THEM ALL!!!

Pros: Delicious , Only Asian restaurant with Vegan options in SA, Super friendly staff

Cons: Not fully Vegan, Appetizers a little pricey

Don't get the Ramen.

Tofu and mushrooms were unseasoned. Was given glassy pho noodles. PHO NOODLES. No spring onion. Nothing with any color. Just brown food in a bowl of brown broth. Everything else seemed like a gardein disaster. I was really hoping this place would have Green on Flores' quaint charm and handmade thoughtful food. It does not. Came in for the Cheese Rangoon and boba tea and they were the only things on the menu without a vegan option. Disappointed.

Pros: great service. everyone was really nice.

Cons: there isn't bok choy in a single dish…, everything is really expensive for not being house, cultural appropriation
