Amazing vegan Chinese food - Edit
This is hands down one of the best Chinese restaurants I’ve ever been to. I’ve gone here numerous times and have never been disappointed, even when trying new items. The owner is so sweet, accommodating and supportive of vegans. Go support them and enjoy all the amazing vegan food!

nice menu - Edit
I heard about this place and had to check them out. Sounds like it was a total nightmare for others. I had the Mongolian beef vegan dish and the vegan pot stickers. I thought both dishes were good and would get again. I did come with 3 others and they were meat eaters and they thought everything was good, Not great. I believe all the fake meat vegan is soy products.
Read moreThey also use a fair amount of oil in the frying of food. I try to avoid oil but some time I can’t completely avoid it.
Dropped off a new Happy Cow window sticker today🐂

Vegan menu and great food! - Edit
Owners are super friendly and ALWAYS remember us when we come in. They know vegan and do not make mistakes like other “vegan option” places make.

Tasty! - Edit
Love that they have a vegan menu! I have been here a number of times this year and tried the Kung Pao Vegan Chicken, Spring Rolls and Black Pepper Vegan Beef. All very tasty! New owners are accommodating to vegans just ask for their vegan menu.

Awesome Chinese Vegan - Edit
This place had mixed reviews, but I decided to check it out on a lunch break. I was greeted and sat at a table as soon as I walked in. I let them know that I heard they had a vegan menu and the lady was very happy to hear that I was vegan. I ordered moo shoo “chicken” which was basically tofu, but it was amazing. It came with a vegan spring roll, it was s huge portion and very reasonably priced. I’m looking forward to returning to try some of their other dishes.

Delicious and they’re so sweet!! - Edit
I accidentally called here, I was going to get noodles from another place in town but clicked on the wrong link. SO GLAD I DID! The woman was so amazing on the phone reassuring me that they could serve me and made me an order of noodles with fried tofu, veggies and a garlic ginger sauce. After reading they’re epic vegan menu I feel like I’ll be coming here a lot!
Read morePros: Definitely lots of vegan options, Understand what vegan is, Staff is amazing

SO GOOD! Favorite Petaluma restaurant - Edit
UPDATE Dec 2017: I made this review under the previous owners, I now have some serious concerns based on all these reviews saying they're putting meat in the vegan dishes. Order with caution and say the word vegan 500 times!

My girlfriend and I (both long time vegans) have made this our new favorite place for a dinner date. The food is delicious, prices are reasonable, and staff is sweet and friendly.
Make sure you ask for the special vegan/vegetarian menu! It is a whole separate menu (green-ish instead of reddish - very appropriate!) and has lots of great stuff that's not on the other menu.
There are a few items on the veggie/vegan menu that may not be vegan, like the Honey Walnut Tofu (honey), and a couple things like fried rice can be made with egg or no egg, so just make sure to be clear when ordering that you want the vegan version.
Our favorite dishes so far are the vegan orange chicken and the eggplant and tofu in plum sauce.
The staff don't speak English very well, but they're very nice and we haven't had any misunderstandings with our orders.
The ambiance is pleasant, nice Oriental decor, simple and clean. Great place for a date.
Would give 5 stars if they only served vegan food!

avoid this place - Edit
A group of us came here specifically because of their wide selection of plant based meat. We ALL exchanged our conventional menus for the vegetarian ones. Ordered some vegetables, tofu and some plant based meat dishes. The first bite of shrimp did not taste vegan, neither did the beef. Chinese restaurants often use bicarbonate of soda to soften and disintegrate the tough muscle, and that flavor was dominant. We asked the server who pretended we had ordered beef and shrimp, even though she had given us vegan popcorn chicken.
Read moreThey did not comp the meal and pretended it was no big deal. She did offer to give us the original vegan version of what had actually ordered, but by then we had lost our appetite.
Pros: large selection of plant based meat dishes
Cons: don't actually serve you the plant based meat dish

SERVED ANIMAL CARCASS TO VEGANS :-( - Edit
Posting this review on behalf of a Facebook friend (who is an outspoken vegan activist and entrepreneur).
Read moreSharing this as HappyCow Ambassador so fellow Happycow users are informed.
Out of consideration for my friend's privacy, I limit this review to the facts of the incident:
- A group of vegans went to the place, as they had heard about the big vegan menu
- They asked for and received the vegan menu
- They ordered a number of dishes, among them vegan prawn and vegan beef
- Suspicious about the taste, they inquired whether it was really vegan
- The waiter informed them that they had been eating real beef and real shrimp.
- When they inquired how this could happen, as they specifically ordered from the vegan menu, they were told that the waiter had not fully understood (which nobody at the table could believe)
- there was no excuse from the restaurant.
Please inform yourself also in other places before going to this restaurant. There are supposedly a large number of very negative reviews, regarding being served non-vegan food and sanitary concerns.

Good Variety of Vegan Options and Faux Meats - Edit
More vegan options than a typical Chinese restaurant. Especially good for going to dinner with non-vegan friends/family as they have many faux-meat items.
Read moreNice atmosphere and staff. Always accepting of our questions and concerns.
Pros: Separate vegan/veg menu, Many faux-meat items for those who want that, Nice atmosphere
Cons: Most of regular menu is meat based

Separate vegan menu! - Edit
Fantastic choice! The food was delicious. They have a separate vegan menu though it says vegetarian. Everything I saw was vegan unless you choose to add egg. One of the people in our group said there is something they put honey in, but that's it! They also deliver!!! I'm so glad we found this place!
Read morePros: Veg menu, Delicious food, Pleasant atmosphere
Cons: the "vegan drumsticks", the "salmon"
