Felt like I was a VIP, staff is so kind! - Edit
I had the recommended wontons in spicy sauce and the fried aubergine bun. Both were excellent. I dined solo and received exceptionally kind, attentive service. Vincent was knowledgeable and made the experience feel genuinely personal.

Highly recommended - Edit
Tofu Vegan is easily on my top 5 restaurants in London. My favorite place for Chinese food for sure.
Read moreGreat food and friendly staff.
The menu is quite big. I used to order a different dish every time I went there. Everything is so delicious that made me want to try everything they can do. But there is this one time, I've been there with my partner. We were going to order a dish containing aubergine. The waitress, very kindly said that if we liked aubergine, we should go for a different one. She suggested us to get the "Fried aubergine in house special" with buns. We accepted the suggestion and it became our favorite dish. It's so good. Now every time we go we order this one and something else.

This place is a must visit. I have never seen a full vegan traditional Chinese establishment like this. Food was so delicious we over ate. Recommendations were spot on. Great service. Do visit you won’t regret it

Okay - Edit
People rave about this chain. I shared six (two of each) dumplings and had a small plate of stir-fry, which was a bit oily. Nothing had much flavour. Was busy and evidently popular, and the service was good, but I was not impressed with the food.

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

Lovely meal out, great staff - Edit
Booked in for dinner and was blown away by how incredible the food was! The staff were lovely and make recommendations if you're unsure what to order. After a long day of walking around London it was very welcome indeed.

Delicious food - Edit
I do like the food at Tofu Vegan restaurants. The mixture of textures and flavours is imaginative. Spitalfields is no exception - good food and good service.

Amazing menu - Edit
Spoiled for choice. Shared some dumplings to start - the soup ones were amazing. Eventually decided on cauliflower for my main, it had a salt and pepper type seasoning. I also tasted the asparagus and tofu in peanut sauce (was envious of the tofu sauce and dipped my baos in it)! Shared some red bean paste spring rolls for dessert. All in all an excellent meal and a treat for vegans!

Delicious and exciting variety - Edit
It was cool seeing a lot of dishes on the menu that I’m not normally able to get vegan! We didn’t have much time so we got takeout from the essentials section of the menu. It was really good and staff was so nice!

Excellent food, staff and flavours - Edit
Food was excellent and incredibly tasty. Well cooked and flavourful. Staff members very kind and helpful. The prices were reasonable £57 for two mains plus rice, 1 starter and 2 drinks but could have slightly lower. Overall a very good choice and we will be coming back 🙏🏼

Give me all the lotus root - Edit
One of my favourite vegan restaurants. They have such a great varied menu (even though I always order the same dishes every time 🤭) and everything always tastes great. Anyone I bring here also loves it too, non-vegans included.

Consistently great! (July 2024) - Edit
Every TV keeps such a high standard. The food is excellent and pretty quickly bright out. Not living in London means I have to visit more sporadically but always do when in town.

First Chinese in a very long time - Edit
Being vegan, you're often used to having very limited choice of restaurants or items on the menu. Well, it seems Shoreditch is setting itself up to be a vegans dream - so many choices! I came to Tofu Vegan with one meat eating friend and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff are friendly and the environment was really nice.

The Wontons in house special sauce are popular for good reason! - Edit
Definitely get the wontons! And I just asked for a recommendation for the main and was not disappointed, it was a chili and tofu stir fry with mushrooms

Enjoyable Asian Cuisine - Edit
The food here overall was good, but not excellent. The portions sizes were modest and, the overall quality probably means it leans on the more expensive side. In general a nice venue with friendly staff, and fairly pleasant, straightforward Asian food - we would not say they are purely authentic, but it was fairly proximal to this, and given the European context, pretty solid relatively speaking.
Read moreDefinitely worth it the visit on balance.
Gluten Free friendly.
Pros: Wonton Soup, Salt & Pepper Tofu, Gluten Free Friendly
Cons: Slightly expensive
