Best laksa & springrolls! - Edit
Turned up with my sisters without a booking and they gave us a table despite the short notice. All food ordered was delicious & super fresh- most especially my combination laksa and spring rolls. Literally mouth watering!! Would go back again in a heartbeat. Hope to try their vegan desserts too next time.
Pros: orange in table water, fast service, fresh food
Cons: cramped interior

This place is well priced and very delicious. Lemongrass 'chicken' and tom yum noodle soup were both amazing! Would definitely go back here and recommend it to others.

Must try to pho and the desserts! - Edit
The vegan pho is great, and so are stirfrys. The portions here can be quite large! So a few entrees and sharing one main would be enough for two people (plus a dessert!).
Pros: Friendly staff, Lots of menu choice, Vegan pho!!
Cons: Can get busy / crowded

Yum!! - Edit
This place has the best food! I especially love the vegan "fish" clay pot and the satay "chicken" skewers. Getting noticed by wait staff can be a little tricky but that's because they're always so packed, so I don't blame them. Good well priced tasty vegan food :)
Pros: Tasty, Good portions, Quality meals
Cons: Busy, Can wait a little while for your food

The Mock Duck is AMAZING - Edit
I've been here a couple of times now and the food is to die for! When I first went for my birthday we were placed underneath the cute 'Veganism is Magic' sign and ate an amazing meal of vegan ducks, seafood and laksa. They're always very lovely there but they do get quite busy. One time when I went when they were busy I had to ask for menus after 5 mins of being seated. I recommend making a booking for sure!
Pros: Inespensive prices for delicious food
Cons: can get busy so book in advance to enjoy self

Insanely delicious - Edit
I spent approximately 20 minutes browsing Golden Lotus' menu before I finally made my choice, there was just soooo much I wanted to try. The menu is vast, tasty and authentic. The portions are very generous, so much so I couldn't even eat it all!
I would reccommend booking a table though, it gets quite crowded and loud at the front and it was hard to hold a conversation so we ended up eating fast and leaving.
Pros: Extremely fresh , affordable
Cons: Seating a bit crowded , Orders take a while to come

Addicted to their soups - Edit
I love this place. We come here regularly and whilst I really like all their dishes I have a hard time going past their soups. I love them all - so tasty!

clean, fast, fresh - Edit
Great food for the prices and also venue. Doesn't have the greasy feel some mock-meat Asian restaurants tend to have. Has beautiful, expansive menu and a nice fitout. Had the satay chickn skewers and tofu/veg pho. Both were great and came within minutes of ordering. Somewhere I'd be happy to take omnis too !
Pros: speed, price, location
Cons: too many options to try

Try the eggplant fritters - Edit
There is a lot of faux meat to cover a lot of items like Peking duck, fish etc. I enjoyed the eggplant fritters the most :)

Nice little restaurant - Edit
Came here with some non-vegan friends, and we were all impressed by the range - stir-fries, noodles, rice, skewers, spring-rolls... as wide a range as you'd find in most non-vegan Chinese restaurants. While the place is a bit small, the food is great; would definitely recommend it.
