My favorite local Vegan Restaurant

Currently on a quest to try every single meal option. I have yet to try something I hated. Some of the best Vegan food I’ve ever had.

One of my new favorite places!

I have been here twice now and have had a great experience each time! My vegan activist friends and I like to go after protesting, as it is conveniently close by! The staff is amazing and attentive and the food and drinks are delicious! They even have a little area up front where you can purchase vegan jerky and other goodies! I can’t wait to try more things the next time I go back!

Pros: Delicious food and drinks , Amazing and attentive staff , Vegan jerky available to purchase & take home

I would eat here every day if I could

I drive here all the way from Greenbelt regularly. Not just the best vegan Asian food in the area, but among the best of ANY vegan food in Maryland in my opinion. They very recently opened in a somewhat unorthodox location so the vegan community here needs to shower them with love!!!

Pros: All vegan, Delicious mock meats and veg, Dairy free boba milk tea

Excellent MD vegan restaurant!!!

This place recently opened and even though they’re named a “vegetarian bistro” they’re all vegan and have an allergen friendly menu.

Finally a vegan place near Fort Meade.

This place is what my husband and I have been waiting for since we arrived in Fort Meade two years ago. Everything we've eaten is delicious, it's been 4 times now that we've ordered online to go pick up and everything is delicious. The owners are very kind and attentive. Thank you 🙏🏼🌱

Delicious vegan Chinese restaurant!

One of the best vegan Chinese restaurants I've eaten at. The MaPo tofu was delicious and spicy, and everything was so tasty. I'll definitely be back!

Gimme dem thick noodz

Ordered the vegan nuggets, pan fried dumplings, curry ban mein, and kung pao tofu (with brown rice). Everything was absolutely amazing. I’m not a fan of a lot of heat and the dishes had just enough heat. The pan fried dumplings were fantastic! It was suggested to me to get the thick noodles for the curry. They did not disappoint! Great texture!!

Amazing food!

The spicy wontons are a must! The cisu signature noodles were solid and the fried taro ball a nice texture. The staff are amazingly kind.

Pros: Spicy wontons

Delicious and fresh!

We loved our food here and definitely recommend it! We had Basil Tofu, Malaysian Curry and Black Pepper Vegan Beef. All the vegan proteins had a great flavor and texture and the vegetables in the dishes were perfectly cooked.

The restaurant has both counter and table service and the staff is very attentive and friendly. The portions were generous and there were many other things we want to try another time. They also have a small retail section with vegan jerky, dried fruit, candies and dried soy protein.

Pros: Excellent food, Great variety of choices, Friendly staff

Cons: None.

Quaint Little restaurant, Vegan and Vegetarian, Carry out or Eat in

This restaurant is an incredibly welcome addition to the very few vegetarian restaurants in the area. The food is authentic, fresh, made quickly, and most importantly, the most delicious vegetarian food you will ever have!

I have been to restaurants like this in Taiwan and Singapore, but have found very, very few in America – – most in New York City or Los Angeles. The thing that makes this restaurant special is that each dish is different, prepared with care, and does not use the same flavoring or sauces for everything, an issue one encounters sometimes with other restaurants.

I can’t recommend it enough. Whether you are a vegetarian, vegan, or just want a break from meat, you’ve got to go to this place – – you will love it!

Thank you guys for opening this place! My family was having dim sum at the Chinese restaurant next door, and there was nothing there I could eat. Luckily the folks there recommended I come to your restaurant and just bring some food over! So glad we got to try your restaurant. A life-saver!

Delicious Chinese vegan food!

Came here last Sunday and ordered so much delicious Chinese food! The various types of taro fritters were especially amazing: crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, filled with umami flavors. Very authentic food as well, we spoke to the couple behind the corner: the husband spoke Mandarin, which I don't speak, but my mom and I were able to speak Cantonese with the wife. (Obviously, they also both speak perfect English.) They were both so kind and welcoming and took the time to recommend and suggest dishes. There's also a small section near the front of the shop that sells mostly Chinese/Taiwanese/Buddhist vegan products, which was great! I got myself some mushroom floss and vegan "beef".

Despite calling themselves "vegetarian", it seems the food is actually vegan, but the only thing to be aware of is that they do have a fish aquarium near the entrance (this is a common Chinese custom), so vegan folks who feel that animals should not be kept as companions should be aware.

Excellent Food, Kind Staff

My partner and I enjoyed an excellent meal here before going to the Baltimore airport, located nearby. Everything inside was very clean. I was impressed with how clear and well organized the menus are. Everything was vegan and very reasonably priced, especially considering the generous portion size. We loved the Kung Pao Tofu, which had a great texture in a delicious and spicy sauce. We are looking forward to return here soon!

Awesome vegan Chinese-style food!

I got the “black pepper drumstick”, which was like Chinese style southern food and it was delicious! My wife got shrimp pad Thai which she said was dry and less flavorful. I did confirm with the lady that everything is vegan, despite being called vegetarian. I will definitely be coming back, and will probably be sure to get food with a sauce base.

Delicious food and friendly staff!

I am SO happy to see this gem is finally open! First impressions: delicious food, welcoming staff, clean dining area. It’ll be hard to not go multiple times a week…
My partner and I tried the following:
Coconut fritters
Sweet Taro soy fritters
Black pepper ban mein
Cisu signature bowl

Overall loved every dish and can’t wait to go through the whole menu!! The signature bowl comes with king oyster mushrooms and 2 vegan meats: the rounder “meats” were a bit chewy.

Yummy Vegan Chinese Food and Bubble Tea!

My partner and I got to try this restaurant over the weekend and we both really enjoyed it! I enjoyed how the prices were clear and laid out ($5 for bubble tea, $7-8 for apps, $10 for noodles, $15 for entree). You could also order through an app at the store or through an employee. Food came out really quickly.

Pictured are:
- Mango bubble tea and taro bubble tea: I'm so glad there's vegan bubble tea so close to me!!! Note: IMO it's on the sweeter side but I let the ice in mine (taro) melt a bit xD
- Mapo tofu: so good! Very similar taste and texture to what I remember the pork kind to taste like. My omni- boyfriend loved it
- Dan Dan noodles: I am only familiar with the Sichuan kind, which is spicy. This is not, but was still really good (I ate it with the sliced Mapo tofu for a lil spicy kick). The corn and cucumber were very refreshing. I got it with the thick noodles which were so chewy and good 🤤
- Taro balls and panfried dumplings

I want to come back and try the eggplant and all the noodle dishes xD. The only con (but I can see why they do ot) Is that even if you eat in, the food comes out in takeout containers.

Pros: Delicious , Filling, Inexpensive
