Delicious buffet with great service - Edit
get the buffet! I’m not a buffet person, but my non-vegan family of 6 thoroughly enjoyed all of the options at the buffet. The garlic eggplant and green beans were a highlight, as were all of the desert options. on top of this, we were very well attended to, and experienced very kind service.

Rare Vegan Buffet! - Edit
Just a group of hungry travelers passing through Houston and found this cute vegan spot to have dinner. We all had the buffet, and all the items were phenomenal. Everything from the sushi rolls, the sauces, soups, tofu, veggies, and desserts were excellent! My favorite was the tempeh that surprisingly tasted just like white fish, which was freaky but delicious and something I've never experienced. The servers were also very friendly and attentive even when the place filled up. It brought me right back to my childhood in an AYCE Chinese buffet, but even better.

Their buffet is the best. I've never gotten anything else, but I'm sure it's just as good. Staff and service is amazing as well.

The salt and pepper tofu is one of the best things I’ve ever tasted. The menu is really good and doesn’t really try to have meat substitutes

Nice casual vegan chinese, with buffet - Edit
Venue is a small shop in a strip mall. Nice tables and chairs and the walls are decorated with nice paintings. Venue is very clean.
Read moreThe staff are extremely nice and very accommodating. Service is extremely good.
You can order from the menu or visit the buffet. We've liked the dishes we've ordered from the menu, but many of the dishes that we really liked are no longer available.
We like a variety of dishes, so we usually get the buffet now. That is quite tasty when fresh, but some items (crispy salt & pepper tofu, spring rolls) aren't great when they've been sitting out for a while (common problem with buffets).
I've never not been able to get a parking spot, but sometimes it can be a long walk.
Pros: Friendly staff, Good value, Clean venue
Cons: Sometimes a long walk to parking spot

Pretty good Vegan Buffet! - Edit
Not everything they had was my favorite, but dinner was pretty affordable ($30 for 2 people), and they had some great noodles and very cute and tasty sesame balls. Staff was nice and quick to take plates when we finished eating and getting seconds didn't seem to be an extra charge.

Great little gem - Edit
Visited here on a Saturday night from out of town with my partner and friend. We were greeted by a really friendly lady that sat us down and took our order. We settled for a bento box each - I had the salt and pepper tofu and my two companions both had the terriyaki tofu. The food was delivered really promptly and was ever so tasty. Everyone really enjoyed the noodles in the dish and the tofu was done so well too! Would really recommend this place ✌️

Only Asian food, idk why they don’t have real “trendy” vegan dishes, at least they should have pizza with beyond sausages 😝

Wish I lived in Houston for this restaurant alone! - Edit
Everything I tried, was delicious I’m from Chicago and I wish this restaurant was in my own city. I’m hoping everyone will come to this place. There were some serious high frequency vibrations at this restaurant. After drinking some hot tea and having the veggie dry ball that had sautéed lotus and tree mushrooms in it, I left, feeling high and on top of this world. I seriously believe that the people at this restaurant are the sweetest and most genuine individuals and I wish I could take them home with me. I can’t wait to visit Houston again simply for this restaurant. Go there they are kind, compassionate and accommodating. I saw them accommodate a man with a disability who struggled with his hand, and a server helped him open his utensils, and it was the sweetest gesture had ever seen. They kept coming over to our table to pour our hot tea for us checking in on us and making sure that we took our leftovers home. I can go on and on but all I will say is that this little restaurant in a strip mall will surprise you and you will leave there naturally high on life.

Average buffet - Edit
I had the buffet. The flavor of the food was quite bland. It was nothing amazing but it wasn't bad either. It's buffet food so I don't expect gourmet. But I have been to other buffets with better quality. I'd probably eat here again, but it wouldn't be a first choice, at least not the buffet.

Amazing buffet & kind service - Edit
Loved it. We had no idea there was a buffet here when we found it in Yelp but thanks to the hospitable and attentive service we happily changed plans to try a little of a lot on our first visit. Everything was well cooked and very tasty, even though servers said if we came earlier it would be even more fresh we weren’t at all disappointed. I wish there were some more condiments to make the dishes a little spicier but understand the buffet being mild. I look forward to ordered a menu item from the kitchen soon!

Veggies, Brown Rice, and Great Taste! - Edit
Visiting Houston, I found they have lots of vegan food, but not much is whole food plant-based - something my wife and I try to adhere to. My first night here, I had dietary restrictions for a medical test the next day. After searching menus, it seemed my best bet was here - "Tofu Vegetables", with added broccoli and mushrooms. Delicious, and a large portion - perfect! And during my stay here, I returned a couple of times - "General Tso's Tofu" (with added vegetables) and "Garlic Sauce Eggplant" (with added tofu and other veggies). Also with large portions! And, I was able to request brown rice - I like white rice, but brown rice is much better for me, and not always available. It is here! And it's not stuck together in one big lump, as I've encountered elsewhere.
Read moreI only ordered for takeout, but the restaurant has something of a buffet station that was getting a lot of traffic when I picked up my food. And a possible drawback: I didn't have trouble parking, but it's not abundant.
Aside from that small potential caveat, I look forward to visiting "Trendy Vegan" and trying more of their menu when I return to Houston!
Pros: Real vegetables!, Good brown rice., Great TASTE!
Cons: Somewhat tight parking., They're not in Denver!

Sadly disappointing - Edit
We used to LOVE Peppertree (the wonderful vegan restaurant this replaced), so we had high hopes for this place, despite the ridiculous name. Alas, we were disappointed. Only one dish (the ramen) was actually bad, but nothing was particularly good.
Read more• Sautéed Brussels sprouts - Not sautéed long enough and the sauce, despite the large chunks of garlic, was bland
• Salt and pepper tofu - OK flavor, but mushy rather than crispy (maybe our fault for ordering delivery; might be better at the restaurant)
• Tofu vegetables - Blah
• General Tso tofu - Blah
• Ramen - Looked wonderful, tasted terrible (inedible broth)
It’s a fairly large menu (though tiny compared to Peppertree), so I’d give it another chance ordering different dishes, but I wouldn’t order anything we had again.
