Yummy food! - Edit
It‘s a cute little restaurant with a familiar atmosphere. Sadly lots of the food options in the menu we’re out of stock. But we still had a yummy meal. We ordered a stir fry seitan dish, rice noodles with seitan, a seaweed soup and the dumplings. Only the dumplings we’re a little bit underwhelming, the rest was delicious! Still would come back to try the other dishes😄
Read morePros: Seaweed soup was amazing
Cons: The dumplings tasted all the same and a bit boring

Delicious - Edit
The food was truly delicious. We had a dish of eggplant, potato and sweet pepper, and another eggplant dish (I forget the name). Both were fantastic. The eggplant was cooked to perfection, melt in your mouth with a tiny crunch on the edges.
Read moreWe also had steamed dumplings, which were ok.
I believe that during the day, they only serve the Bubble Tea, with the full menu available from 6pm. That's how it was today, at least.
Pros: Delicious, Friendly, multilingual staff

Delicious! - Edit
Absolutely delicious food & perfect portion sizes. The spicy tofu was fantastic, & my husband had the seitan Nero which was great too. We also had steamed dumplings, which were all different which was fun. The mango lemon tea was also incredible- it had chunks of mango & lemon in it with so much flavor. We had 2 entrees, the dumplings, a tea & a beer for 43 euros which I thought was reasonable.

Absolutely amazing! - Edit
This was one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in Italy! The little restaurant was well decorated with plants, had a family owned vibe, and was really enjoyable. The food was really incredible! We got eggplant, noodles, and dumplings and loved every bite. And it was all vegan! Amazing.

Really tasty - Edit
The tofu and vegetables with vermicelli noodles and special sauce was delicious. Though we also ordered mixed stir fry veggies and all we got was a big plate of pak choi so that was disappointing.

Great vegan option - Edit
Very popular place - having read the reviews, we arrived early to beat the queues - by the time we left they were having to turn customers away on a Wednesday.
Read moreWe ordered a couple of hot pots and the kimchi cake, plus two rice. We could have ordered just the one hot pot and been full enough.
There weren't any spice level on the menu, and the hot pot was significantly spicier than our comfort zone. Having eaten quite a lot of Chinese and Korean food, we found the hot pot both too spicy and too sweet.
Great to have a prominently vegan Chinese!

Really great food - Edit
The food here is really tasty and you get good size portions. We definitely over ordered because so kick sounded so nice, but we’re a little disappointed a lot of things weren’t available on the menu. We also had to wait a while to have our order taken because it was so busy. But it was worth the wait!
Read morePros: Everything is vegan , Very very tasty , Good size portions

Amazing find in Florence - Edit
We found this place by chance when we took an alternative path to our hotel. I must say this was quite a find!
Read moreThe place offers a menu with vegetarian versions of Chinese food (after asking the waiter, he said that everything was vegan actually).
The food is very exotic but very delicious (a meal I ordered with eggplants was out of this world).
The only drawback is that a lot of meals on the menu were unavailable.

Small but big enough - Edit
We went here for our first dinner in Florence. The restaurant is not very large, so the atmosphere is very familiar. The waiter who served us was really nice and friendly, so a plus point on that. Not all meals on the menu were available, but there was plenty of choose anyway. The portions are of a good size, so you don’t risk leaving hungry at all. The restaurant is listed as vegetarian but I think most of the dishes are vegan. Overall a nice experience and I think we will come back.

Sicuramente ci tornerò - Edit
In due abbiamo preso il taro in foglia di tofu fritto, il seitan nero al cumino, l'hotpot di verdure piccante e il tris di ravioli. Tutto buonissimo, il taro (che non conoscevo) e il seitan mi sono piaciuti veramente tantissimo.

So much flavor! - Edit
We visited twice. The tofu in spicy sauce a.k.a. Mapo tofu was excellent! The seitan in mixed vegetables was delicious also. If you’re craving some flavor, spice and veggies in Florence, this restaurant will hit the spot. Definitely make a reservation though because they get very busy.

Good for adults, maybe a bit to spicy for kids - Edit
We ordered 3 different dishes/ sauces, and they were all way too spicy for our kids to eat. So they ended up just eating rice and soy sauce. Us adults could eat it. But even if we are used to spicy food our mouths burned. And they did not have childrens menus.
Read moreThe portions of sauce were huge, so two people can easily share. But get two rice portions then , because the rice portions are pretty small.
It’s very affordable and loads of value for money. It’s kind of a messy place, not dirty just messy. The staff was nice although not very attentive.
Pros: Very affordable , Very flavorful , Many vegan choices
Cons: Bit messy place , Not very kid friendly , Not very attentive staff

Delicious pan Asian food - Edit
Most of the menu (broken up by ingredient) appears vegan. They have an interesting mix of dishes; Unfortunately they were out of quite a few. Everything we ordered was quite tasty!

One of the best vegan spots in Florence - Edit
After having our fill of Italian classics, we were in the mood for something different and tried this place. What a breath of fresh air. Don’t listen to the few people on here that wrote bad reviews—they’re clueless. Fantastic food and hospitality. Dishes were handmade, fresh, and served quickly. When I say family-run, I mean the type of place where grandma is happily sitting in the back working on vegetables and dumplings. Could not recommend this place more. 5/5
Read morePros: The entire menu is vegan, Family-run business, Handmade items that are exquisite
