Vibrant place and unique chinese food experience - Edit
Three virtues restaurant is located on the first floor, conveniently located on King's Road. Tables suitable for 2-8 persons in very atmospheric chinese setting, where lots of locals eat.
Read moreMenu is really marvelous for vegans loving mock meats - it includes vegan shark fins (!), mock duck, cartilage, and more. Menu is in English and Chinese, lots of photos, and non-vegan ingredients clearly marked (and not many of them, just a few dishes with eggs).
I ordered fried rice, selection of mock meats and fruits-sea fruits dumplings. It was superb! Too much for 2 persons, but we could order a box to take it away. Complimentary tea. Paid 288 HKD, worth every penny.
Cards accepted, reservations suggested.

Wide variety of veg dim sum - Edit
Environment: Old-school, busy, big
Read moreFood: Dishes are not marked vegan clearly. Big menu to choose from, whether it's dim sum or dishes. However, many are made with mock meat and not necessarily vegan. No five spices (buddhist friendly).
Update on Dec 9: Portions are big and quality of food seemed to have improved. Unfortunately dishes with eggs or dairy are still not marked and the male manager in suit was not able to recommend vegan dishes when we visited. His service attitude was also disappointing. The small cooked peanut dish that they served at the beginning of the meal was not that appetizing but of course they will still charge you whether you like it or not, just like the 10% service charge. As much as we want to support this restaurant, the service was not up to par despite the difficult economy and lack of customers.
Service: So-so
Price: Low-medium range
Pros: Traditional Chinese restaurant culture
Cons: Lots of mock meat on the menu

Local family style Chinese restaurant - Edit
Family style traditional restaurant. We've been here many times now. Highly recommend to visit in a group and try lunch if you can (as excellent dim sum menu available at lunch only). Large portions at reasonable price.
Read moreHuge selection, so can be overwhelming to choose dishes. Ask them to recommend if you prefer more veg in ur dishes.
Favourite dishes were the:
(1) Monkey head mushroom and strawberry in sweet and sour dish! Great flavour due to use of the strawberries.
(2) Standout soup - family portion (HUGE) of delicious hot and sour soup in Shanghainese style (they can make it without egg).
(3) Dim sum lunch menu is excellent! My favourites are the (a) rice rolls in XO sauce; (b) Cantonese vegan shrimp and celery dumplings in soup; (c) turnip cake; (d) eggplant one (steamed in slices-yum!)
(3) Morning glory with vegetables on specials menu
Skewers are fairly good but sauce a bit gloopy.
No napkins so bring your own.
Good service.
Bit tricky to find. Next to a food counter, a couple of metres back from the road are a set of stairs going up
Pros: Reasonable price, Some superb dishes including vegan dim sum, Open until late
Cons: Bring your own napkins, Tricky to find - look for stairs next to food coun

Amazing Chinese food - Edit
Extremely busy for lunch on a Sunday, but we were seated straight away. Choice of dim sum menu or regular a la carte. The satay skewers had a great texture and came with a comforting gravy (it wasn't peanut sauce like I was expecting). Radish cake in XO sauce was massive but easily the best radish cake I've eaten (and I've eaten loads!). Vermicelli in peanut sauce was very rich but this was offset by the pickled veg. The rice noodle rolls in XO sauce was also gigantic, but again they were the best I've ever tried. Way too much food for 2 people but I loved every mouthful. Price was relatively cheap.

Really Delicious - Edit
My fiancé found this place for me. He wanted to try Cantonese food while in Hong Kong but wanted me to have lots of options. We live in Chengdu in mainland China, which has been tough for me food-wise, and he’s always trying to make it a little easier for me. Going here was by no means a sacrifice. Both of us were incredibly impressed with the food and were ecstatic that we chose to eat here! It was a little difficult to find at first as there is no English sign, but we are used to that, so we got to where the location was on google and just climbed the stairs! There is a small bakery operating out of the ground floor street level with stairs recessed next to it. The restaurant is up the stairs on Level 2 and to the right of the landing. When we walked in, the greeter made sure to tell us that the food was vegetarian. Perhaps foreigners are often surprised? It seems like a tough spot to just stumble upon. We got a fried rice noodle dish, lettuce wraps, and sautéed eggplant and green beans. The noodles and eggplant were a bit oily, but they were absolutely delicious. My fiancé scraped the plate for the last noodles. I realize that many vegans don’t like fake meat, so that may be a concern as each dish we had contained some sort of fake meat. Neither of us are offended by fake meat, especially after living in China where the concept of a meatless meal is still not completely understood outside of Buddhist communities. Overall, we were both very impressed and would return here if we weren’t leaving so soon!

The best food - Edit
Found it by walking by, didn't looked to the app yet! Easy to find, friendly and helpfull staff and the food is amazing! My boyfriend is a real meat eater, but the couldn't stop eating here, it's the best veggie food I had in my trip through China.(which is sometimes soooo hard) Also, they have on the menu if it contains animal products such as eggs and stuff, and the spiciness. There were a few monks who ate here, it was special to see. Would go here again!

Amazing dim-sum place in Hong Kong - Edit
I've recently been to the Three Virtues Vegetarian Restaurant. It was difficult to find it at first because when you take the escalator to go to the first floor the sign says 2F instead of 1F.
Read moreOnce we managed to find the restaurant everything was fantastic. The food is quite cheap, the waiters are quite kind and, the most important thing of them all, the food is amazing.
I especially recommend the Shangai Dumplings and the Spring Rolls.
Pros: Delicious food, Nice portions, Cheap
Cons: Difficult to find

Best food I had in Hong Kong! - Edit
I adore Chinese food, and I have felt its loss keenly since quitting meat over 10 years ago. I therefore am delighted when I find delicious Chinese menus that are 100% vegetarian! I'm vegan, but I visited the restaurant with Cantonese speakers who were able to communicate this to the waitstaff, so I had no problems. (I don't think waiters spoke English, but they were very accommodating, nonetheless!) I shared many dishes and especially enjoyed a rice dish that had fake "lamb" in it (it creeps me out when vegan dishes are referred to with animal names - I mention it for identification purposes only!)
Read morePortions were large and prices were considerably lower than other veg places I visited during my trip. I also liked the large tables, some of which had lazy susans on them, that allowed families and large groups to share food together. The cozy familiar atmosphere & delicious food will bring me straight back the next time I visit Hong Kong!
Pros: large, filling portions, not touristy
Cons: may be hard to find - up flight of stair, names of menu items refer to meat

Three Virtues Vegetarian Restaurant, Hong Kong - Edit
I had a late lunch here today. Firstly its a big place with lots of seats / tables. Secondly the amount of choice on the menu seems huge (maybe that's normal for around here as the place I ate in last night had a similarly mindboggling selection to choose from.
Read moreI asked the waitress for info on what was egg & honey free. She didn't understand my English so well and with my Cantonese currently at 5 words (and improving by the day), she called over the manager. He explained that of the dishes I was looking at, one of them was made with egg noodles. He said he'd ask the chef to change that so that egg free noodles were used for me.
I had braised tofu with ginger and monkey head mushrooms, and also some bean curd and mushroom noodle soup. Both were fine.
Pros: Vegan friendly, English & Chinese menus, Helpful staff

pretty good - Edit
We found this restaurant to be pretty decent. The menu has English "subtitles" which was very helpful as the staff we encountered didn't speak English. They were very friendly and efficient. The food was decent with plenty of flavour. It was a bit on the greasy side but overall it was a nice meal. Some of the mock meat names may be a bit disturbing "vegetarian cartilage" for one. Note: we were not offered any napkins and noticed that the local patrons had brought their own.

Traditional vegetarian Cantonese food - Edit
A traditional Chinese restaurant serving traditional vegetarian dishes. Food wasn't bad and came in big portions, but bit on the greasy side, which always seems to be the case with these Chinese vegetarian restaurants. If you don't mind the Chinese kind of dining setting, this might not be a bad place to chow down.

Fun for the adventerous gweilos - Edit
It took some extra time to find, but was great when we did. Not too much english spoken, but helpful none the less. Most of our dishes were fried, but perhaps next time we'll try more stir fried options. Flavors were good and ideas for food mixes were new to us and fun to try. All turned out to taste great. New tastes are always a plus at a vegie Chinese place. Crowded at lunch, but still managed to fit us in without a booking. We'll be back.

Cons: location, signage, english speaking staff

Imperial setting & cuisine - Edit
I am in awe of this place. They must have spent a fortune modernizing it / decorating recently. With the current owner for 4 years. Family owned & family managed. Great atmosphere - can be a little noisy on the "veggy" days in the Chinese calendar. Super popular amongst the Hong Kong business community . You often see parties of 20 / 40 / 60 people all dining together. All of the classic Cantonese dishes on the menu. Prices are very reasonable. Seperate paper menu for dim-sum. A few dishes contain egg - they are clearly marked on the menu. No English sign at street level - go with the numbering - walk up one flight of stairs. Another branch in Jordan, Kowloon - then one more in the mainland of China , Quanzhou City - Fujian Province.
