Formosa Delight

Yes, they do have meat options here, but they seem to shine with their vegetarian food. I believe a lot of the produce is locally grown from the owners garden which is wonderful. I've been here many times now and I always feel refreshed and happy afterward because it's so healthy! Being a university student, the location is brilliant.

Great atmosphere with wooden, cottage style setting. Amazing food, with a wide range of clearly labelled vegan and vegetarian foods, including without garlic/onion. The staff are extremely, and understanding of special diets.
Prices and food are both good!

Was so excited to be in Dunedin on a week day when this place was open. It is a mix meat and vege restaurant. Pleasant atmosphere. Nice staff aware of eastern vegetarian food. Kale dumplings contain no onion or garlic and they were able to make a small dish of mapo tofu for me with a side of cabbage and veges. The dumplings were peppery and the tofu was not the traditional chilli but rather ginger flavour. I paid around $27 for it.

Formosa has an excellent selection of healthy eats, with a good range of vegan options and the staff are really sweet.

I love Formosa, they focus on using natural foods and cater for vegetarian and vegans too! This is the only place in dunedin that has Bubble tea (tapioca pearl tea) with purely natural flavours from the tea you choose.

My all time favourite meal is the gingery mushroom soup on rice (vegan and gluten free)

The food here is all pretty good, and the people who run it are lovely and friendly and seem to genuinely care about the food they make. My partner doesn't like this place much anymore because he got sick of how 'all the food tastes exactly the same' - I still maintain that this is his fault for covering everything he orders in soy sauce and chili!

The food is good, and the proprietors, who grow their own vegetables, are very careful about ensuring that their vegan dishes are truly vegan. Definitely give this place a try.

I think the best thing about this place is that they grow many of their own veggies - and it shows in the finished dishes. The food has a lovely fresh quality to it. Unlike many other places, their dumplings don't taste like they've come straight out of the freezer. Good food. Not a ton of vegan options, but more than most restaurants in dunedin, and the veggie/vegan options are clearly labelled. Well worth a visit!
