Vegan Chinese food - Edit
We saw it earlier and decided to try since there was a bright neon sign saying "Vegan" . We had wonton which was ok just a few wonton and lots of soup. I would have liked more substance and more veggies. It was just filled with mainly with cabbage. We also ordered a Vegan fish entree and scallion pancakes and rice. I liked how they had brown rice options. The fish dish was tasty though a bit chewy. The scallion pancakes were tasty but oily. They had lots of other interesting dishes I would like to try like kimchi fried rice. They even had Thai ice tea with soy milk which I didn't try. So would like to come back and try other food.

Fully Vegan Chinese Spot - Edit
Love that there are so many tasty options. The Homemade Vegetable Wonton with Chili Sauce was very tasty and the Singapore Rice Noodle with Tofu was good - just needed some extra spice in my opinion.

Casual vegan Chinese - Edit
Vast menu of vegan Chinese food. Sweet & sour pork had great sauce but meh fake meat, basil eggplant and tofu was excellent, scallion pancakes were crisp and tasty, pot stickers and spring rolls were good, and the vegetable fried rice was truly outstanding. Service was prompt and efficient. Atmosphere very informal with soothing soft music in the background. I’ll definitely go back again.

Yummy yummy Chinese food - Edit
The portions here are great in comparison to other regional vegan chinese spots (better ratio of chik'n with veggies).
Read morePrices are also very reasonable as we ordered 4 things and a tea and the bill came out to $50 pre tip. Will definitely come back for some basil fried rice next time I'm in the area.

Great quick vegan food - Edit
This is a fantastic spot for “American type” Chinese food. Their mock meats are spot on and they have a huge variety of menu items. We are here several time a month and the whole family loves it.
Read morePros: Big menu, Great flavor, Quick
Cons: Not all dishes are very authentic (mapo tofu)

Thai Basil chicken is a must! - Edit
I’ll start with giving it 5 stars because all in this restaurant is 100% vegan. The range of food is wide! So be very hungry to eat all of it but please please save some room for their basil chicken, it’s just full of flavors and as a basil lover that’s exactly what I was expecting. The staff is super sweet and friendly and also the food was ready really kick. The only thing I didn’t like was their “eel” but I honestly think that was just a matter of my personal taste. 🌱⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Tasty food in ample portions at good prices - Edit
This humble place has a goodly-sized menu with reasonably priced dishes. Many of the stir-fried dishes are heavy on sugary sauces, but you can ask them to cut back a bit, or order something with less or no sauce (noodles, fried rice, soups). They have lunch specials that come with brown rice and either Singapore noodles or chow mein—a very good deal. All the lunch specials I've tried are pretty heavy on the sweet sauce.
Read moreLots of yummy appetizers and beverages too.

good and fast chinese food - Edit
Had the garlic noodles, sweet & sour pork, and a Thai iced tea.
Read moreThe garlic noodles were really good and flavourful.
The pork was a bit of a mixed bag; the pork pieces were really nice and actually crisp despite sitting in the sauce. But the sauce was overly sweet, like ketchup with a lot of extra sugar added. The veggies in that dish were pretty much raw, actually the broccoli was completely raw and cold in parts, I don't know if it was intended to be like that or they forgot to add it when cooking.
The Thai iced tea was really sweet as well, more of a dessert. It tasted a bit like they used ice cream instead of milk which is tasty but a lot richer than I expected.
The service was really fast, they took my order shortly after I sat down and brought the bill early.
Pros: fast service

Flavorful and delicious - Edit
Everything we ordered was truly the best Chinese I have had. My three kids and my husband I all loved our dishes. They give you an option of 1-4 on spicy level. We chose 2 and it was plenty spicy - perfect for me. I usually find Chinese to be a bit bland but this was anything but bland - so flavorful. Vegetables were fresh and cooked perfectly - still had a little crunch. I will definitely be going back anytime I am in the area!
Read moreThe person that took my order was very patient with me even though she was busy. She listened not only to what I was ordering but to details that made a huge difference. For example, I mentioned onion allergy and she immediately listed the items I had ordered with onions and changed the orders to exclude them and I mentioned my son did not like tofu (in passing) and she said, "Oh, the eggplant dish he ordered has tofu." Impressive. The price seemed very reasonable.
They even have tasty vegan desserts.
What a relief to be able to order anything on the menu and not worry about the hidden animal products often found in Chinese.
Pros: Flavorful dishes, Veggies cooked perfectly, Excellent staff
Cons: nothing, nothing, too far from my house :-)

UPDATED W/NEW PHOTOS - Edit
Got my vegan places mixed up and having a hard time deleting the incorrect photos from Happy Cow's Site. These photos are from Veggie Garden. Food was alright. Very small space, if there is a loud group of people in the restaurant you are going to get a lot of noise. Lots of great options. Very tasty. A must visit if your in the neighborhood.
