Very good tofu combinations. - Edit
Obviously lots of choice. A very helpful waiter who made suggestions and made sure we didn't get dishes where the flavours were very similar. It gets busy so best to book.
Read morePros: Very good flavours , Helpful staff
Cons: When you book because they're busy you get a time

Pretty darn good! - Edit
I enjoyed this little Chinese place. Was a little pricey for the portion size. The buns were a little spicier than I liked and I noted they had a lot of spicy food. Luckily it was super spicy like the way the spice food in the USA. I enjoyed the experience overall. The service was very good and the ambiance is lovely. :)
Read morePros: East Asian, Clean and nice ambiance, Mostly tasty
Cons: Price, not so many neutral choices/spicy

Nice vegan option - Edit
Fine but not particularly inventive or authentic. Too light on the Szechuan peppercorns and heat.

Delicious - Edit
Having a few days in this part of London to try and sample as many places as possible, we booked into Tofu Vegan at lunchtime. Ordered three main courses and rice between two. Crispy cauliflower, aubergine/potato/peppers and sizzling tofu. Everything was delicious. I could easily imagine working my way thru the menu if we lived here.

Cons: Place was cold, had to keep our coats on

Wontons in spicy sauce best thing I’ve eaten - Edit
The wontons are one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. The sweet and sour “chicken” was also amazing.

Incredible GF food! - Edit
I have to visit Tofu Vegan every time I’m in Spitalfields! Incredibly delicious food and lovely service. There’s a whole separate gluten-free menu with a wide range of dishes. The Ho Fun noodles and Dongbei potato, green pepper & aubergine are personal favourites! It is quite expensive, but definitely worth it for a treat. Couldn’t recommend more.
Read morePros: Incredible gluten-free options, Lovely staff, 100% vegan!

F-ing Amazing - Edit
This is one of my favorite restaurants ever. We were super hungry and jet lagged after a 12 hour flight and ordered 75% of the menu 😂. Fantastic service and even better food…one of my absolute favorites.

So hot and fresh - Edit
I enjoyed almost everything I ordered. The salt and pepper tofu were unevenly salted so some pieces were extremely salty. The service was a bit uninterested, but fast. At the end, I was told I was 10p short of paying my bill which I thought was an odd thing to argue with a guest about, given that 4.09 was the service charge. I was also not offered dessert nor asked if I wanted anything else.
Read moreBut let me discuss the food. I also ordered the soupy dumplings (good but one of them fell apart and the soupy part landed in my plate). Fried tofu with mushrooms (OMG so good) and a sweet corn soup, which my under 12 year old son really enjoyed.
The food was served very very quickly and also was very very HOT, so I did have to wait to eat it, which was difficult because it was so tasty and I was hungry.
I loved that they provided real chopsticks and they branded their napkins.
Pros: FOOD - hot and fast
Cons: Noisy - there was a large party and it was so loud, Could have had friendlier service

Oh my days!!!! 🤤🤤🤤 - Edit
As someone who isn’t the biggest fan of Chinese cuisine because I enjoy the pure tastes vs everything smothered in sauces, I was blown away! 🚀 We had the “fish”, wontons and different dim sums. Fish and wontons with their house sauce were the highlight of our dinner. I could just eat those two dishes over and over again! The texture, sauce and flavor combinations were something else. We will definitely go back there before we leave London!

The food was so so flavoursome. Also having a vegan place with a menu this extensive was a dream and every bite had so much flavour and seasoning. The staff were also very welcoming! I think this is a must eat place for sure

Keep coming back here! - Edit
I came to this branch and the other two multiple times last year and it's still one of my favorite restaurants in London. The mapo tofu is SO GOOD and the dumplings, stir fried greens, and the hotpot are all really tasty. I will absolutely come here whenever I'm in town. Love it!
