Tasteful genuine Chinese food - Edit
Chili tofu (🌶️🌶️🌶️) was not actually really hot, but it was full of flavor. Sichuan tofu was very mild, but tasty, I added some soy and chili sauce. Friendly staff. You can ask more rice. Take away boxes cost extra to take the rest home.

Mei Lin now has a fully vegan menu - Edit
Delicious, spicy food that always feels like a celebration when we visit or order takeaway. Their new 100% vegan menu makes it easy to select dishes without having to ask for more information or explain ourselves.
Read morePros: Spicy — really! Eggplant is to die for, Flavors are diverse and complex, Great delivery or pickup options
Cons: Menu is pretty consistent, not seasonal, Can’t afford to eat it every day

Excellent food and friendly service. We had cucumber salad and dumpling for starters and Sichuan tofu and Spicy cauliflower and everything was so tasty. They also had vegan ice cream for dessert, we didn't have it this time but worth to mention.

Serves meat?! - Edit
We went in to ask if the lunch was fully vegan and they said they have vegetarian options but also serve meat. We went elsewhere as there are plenty of vegetarian restaurants in Helsinki, there’s no need to support a restaurant that serves meat.

Hei! We have 3 restaurants in the center of Helsinki. I think you should visit Lönnrotinkatu 33-35 Mei Lin Vegetarian Restaurant. It’s 100% Vegan place. Other Mei Lin Sichuan Restaurant (Annankatu 29) serves Mostly Meat dishes, part vegetarian dishes. I think probably you went to the wrong address.

So happy of this place near to the centrum! We ate a delicious garlic and cucumber salad as a starter. As a main course we shared green beans with chili and fried tofu. Everything was nicely spiced and tasty.
