Good food, but beer in a wine glass and wrong menu info

Our evening here started with us getting beer in a wine glass and coca cola in a Spa water glass. It was pretty strange but something we laughed about.
This place has a seperate vegan menu with TONS of options to choose from.

We chose steamed vegetable dim sum pieces as our appetizer, which were delicious.
Our mains were tofu and vegetables in black bean sauce, and vegan chicken with pineapple in sweet-sour sauce.
The tofu was AMAZING, the sauce was delicious and spicy, highly recommend.
The vegan chicken dish was alright, but not very spicy or anything special to us. Perhaps people who aren't used to Chinese food would love it.

Our real problem was with the vegan menu itself. It contained something non-vegan. Even though the menu had many good options, it also had honey noodles as a dessert. (Yes, on the VEGAN menu, not the regular one). When we asked the staff about this they claimed it was in fact vegan and that it wasn't actually honey (?) but nectar from the flowers itself. I've googled this and this is NOT true. We were being lied to, to save face. Mistakes happen, but straight up lying about it is very unprofessional.

We personally wouldn't go here again. We had a good time here, and most of the food was amazing, but the misinformation on the menu and the lying is a big turn off for us.

If you do end up going here, make sure to double check if everything on the vegan menu is indeed vegan!

Separate vegan menu, wow!

I really miss the euro-chinese kitchen I grew up with sometimes. I was super happy to discover that a restaurant near me offers this with a separate vegan menu! The menu is far from the same size as the regular menu, but it is lovely to be able to have options. We had the black bean tofu/veggies on a hot plate, and the sweet and sour 'chicken' as mains. The vegan 'chicken' pieces are amazing, they taste nothing like the meat alternatives in the store, neither do they resemble any meat, but they are doughey and chewy and for some reason it goes super well with the dish. The black bean veggies were nice and peppery. Will defenitly go back!

Pros: Yummy food, Separate vegan menu, Friendly staff
