Incredible!! - Edit
I was so surprised by the variety, they had dishes with mock duck, fish, chicken, pork, everything! Personally I hated meat before going vegan in the first place but this is such a massive bonus if you’re considering taking your omni friends out for lunch/dinner. I ordered the combination Laksa but honestly the combination entree platter was PERFECT. I would’ve just ordered a couple of those for myself as a main if I knew it was going to be that good hahaha. Included 2 duck pancakes (looked more like a rice paper roll), 2 dumplings, 2 pork skewers and 2 spring rolls. So delicious, really impressed my omni boyfriend. Will definitely return if I’m back in Sydney!

Awful service - Edit
OK food. The service was terrible, and it ruined the whole experience. Girlfriends noodles for the curry came 10 minutes after the curry, which was already cold by then. My food came 20 minutes later and had other ingredients then what was stated by the waiter. Definitely won’t go back and won’t recommend

clean, fast, fresh - Edit
Fantastic, incredibly tasty, viet-style food. Highly recommend the Beef Rendang Curry. Best curry we’ve had with mock meat. Duck pancakes were a bit dry, and would probably skip the eggplant fritters next time.

Hmm.... - Edit
I visited with a non-vegan friend and he ordered the mixed laksa. The broth itself was ok but the mock meats + tofu were quite bland.
Read moreI ordered the "duck" with plum sauce. While the sauce itself was tasty, the mock duck skin was very "sharp" on most pieces - for lack of a better word (almost bone-like) - and was quite hard to chew. For the price, the dish could also benefit from some veggies on the side.
I love the idea of what they're doing here, but probably not a place I'd visit again.

Pros: Tasty plum sauce on the mock-duck
Cons: Pricey, Heavily-reliant on faux meats, The mixed laksa was pretty bland

We love the food here. Truly vegan. Great variety. Nice flavours. But ensure you book in advance, as they are always crowded.

Only tried food delivery so far - Edit
..but it was still surprisingly good. Will definitely go to the restaurant next time as I think they have limited menu for Uber Eats.
Read moreWe had the roast duck with plum sauce and the beef rendang - both very tasty. I had to keep asking myself if the rendang was real or faux meat. Skin on the duck is 👌🏼- def one of the best on the menu.
For appetisers, satay chicken skewers were also decent but the fried spring rolls were mediocre.

Bursting with flavour - Edit
Not because I’m vegan, but these guys make the best laksa I’ve had in my life!!! So far my experiences dining in and getting take away have been on point. Super quick service and great portion sizes. Highly recommend them.

Yuk, yuk and yuk! - Edit
What a disappointment. This was truely one of the most disgusting meals I’ve ever been served out. I ate 2 bites and couldn’t eat anymore. I ordered the tofu yellow coconut curry, they didn’t use coconut cream they used powder and it was not dissolved and the sauce had no flavour. The tofu was cheap and nasty. Also order the asparagus and tofu soup, this was a salty broth with floating asparagus and tofu pieces. My partner order the “fish” with lemongrass, it was so dry he could hardly eat it. I can not believe the previous ratings this place has got. It touts that it’s healthy, this is not true. Go anywhere else. If I could I would have given this place no stars, HappyCow only allows a minimum of 2 stars for vegan restaurants. (I will add that I don’t like faux meats just lovely fresh food including tofu and tempeh)

Brilliant portion sizes - Edit
Portion sizes were great value for money - mixed laksa could easily be shared between two people. The mixed appetiser was classic Asian starters and all of them were brilliant tasting. My boyfriend had the Coconut Chicken and I tried and for my first time tasting mock meat, I was blown away. Will definitely be returning! Jasmine rice wasn’t very ‘jasminey’ yet that wasn’t a negative as sometimes it can be too floral. I would recommend booking as we went on a Sunday evening and it was very busy and ended up sharing a table with another couple - however this added to the experience and was fine for us!

So much choice - Edit
Good value for portion size, lots of options - go with a group so you can try more as there’s so much to pick from! I had vegan chicken on hot plate an the mixed platter appetisers. Both good but think I would try a different main next time😄can be quite noisy as there’s no carpet or anything to absorb the sound
Read morePros: BYO, Good portion size , Lots of options
Cons: Noisy
