Ate lunch here today. We ate Kung Po Chicken and Sesame Chicken. Tasty mock chicken...had a real meat feel too... sauteed vegetables served fresh (didn't taste re-cooked.) Sauce was flavorful and wasn't greasy at all. Hostess was helpful making suggestions. Server attentive, refilling water glass without being prompted. I'll make a point to eat here when I'm in the neighborhood. Nice atmosphere.Thoughtful post on door not to park in lot across the street (your car will be towed) and hostess cautioned us too when we entered.

Me and my parents ate here this weekend and I have to be honest but i’ve never been a fan of vegan food, but this restaurant was on a whole other level… For starters the staff were very very kind and helpful, eating out should be an enjoyable experience and they made us feel very welcome as well as helped us with deciding with what we should order as we had never been there before and I am very glad that our waitress did because the shrimp with walnuts is to die for ?? Second, the food, theres really nothing else to say other then the fact that everything was delicious!! I am glad my first vegan restaurant experience was with them because everything looked so appetizing and the menu was very diverse, it wasn't just kale salad or something, and it truly tasted like meat, it was honestly mind blowing. Lastly, it is a very unique looking restaurant (in a good way) the decor was very pretty and I truly just felt comfortable eating there, another thing to note i didn’t experience any ‘unhygienic’ things, everything was very clean including the bathroom!!! One last thing, I noticed a lot of reviews about the prices and to be honest I don’t understand why, I believe everything is fairly priced especially in today’s economy and with being a completely vegan restaurant which means to make the food as good quality as it is they probably have to spend a good amount of money and time for the resources they need and I don't think people would have a problem paying $56 for a fillet minion at a “normal” restaurant. Anyways I will definitely be coming back here to eat!

Decided to give vegan a try a few weeks ago and have been struggling to find good places to dine. Perhaps this place has been the best find! Everything is vegan and it tastes delicious, not to mention service is incredibly attentive.

What sets this restaurant apart from other vegan restaurants (some really nice dishes by the way!) is the service.. everyone who works here is so kind, so efficient, and dedicated to making sure you are happy with your experience. I love coming here because I know I am going to be treated well.

Great place to get vegan Chinese food! 10 out of 10. You can enjoy food with family, celebrate a birthday, or even a nice little date. The ambiance of the place is amazing. The food was spectacular. The service was wonderful. The waitress was really kind and sweet, along with everyone else in there! We had VEGAN sushi (and you can’t tell the difference from real sushi), house fried rice, chicken satay, rose milk tea and Thai ice tea.

On our most recent visit with the kids, we ordered wonton soup, lomein, and General Tso. Cheesecake for dessert. The food was good as always, but the staff rarely checked up on us, despite the restaurant being pretty empty. Some war of words also erupted in the kitchen with people shouting in Chinese. Luckily for them, they have no other competition in the area.

Came in to celebrate with a friend and I am glad we chose to come here. The vegan food is so good! There are many options to choose from and if you ever need help, the servers are really nice and helpful.

The restaurant is a mixed bag,that never justifies their extremely expensive cost. The average rated cost here of $20-$30 is completely inaccurate. The entrees themselves are $25. Tab, tax and tip for 2 including tea, soda and appetizers was $120, while the same meal in other places would be $80Cons: The great extent of the food is subpar, without the proper texture or flavors with the exception of the sushi i.e. crispy food is soggy, the black bean sauce was a strong soy sauce, without any subtlety of other ingredients including beans, the place is of reasonable size (a plus) but seems cold in the winter, the decor and winter climate seems to necessitate a rug, wait staff is a bit cloying, you have to pay $8 for a small pot of oolong tea or a fresh soda, extremely expensiveFor properly textured, vegan orange beef at a reasonable cost I recommend Hunan Cottage in Plainview. For the most delicious blend of vegan orange beef ingredients with appropriate cost I recommend Veggie Heaven in Montclair, NJ. For the yummiest, crispy vegan shrimp I recommend Veggie Heaven in Denville, NJPros: efficient wait service, comfortable, almost roomy seating, solid, quality tables, pleasant decor, vegan sushi, vegan restaurant, housemade soda, decent tea, drink and eats selection, Chinese specialty and unique choices, serving sizes are reasonable, they are astute about special ordersEdit to respond: We ordered a fried breaded dish that should be crispy.I'm always happy to describe any dish a customer may be unfamiliar or as this review, make recommendations.My comparison of dishes and cost is completely based on frequent dining of my family, and my orders at, similar Chinese restaurants in the area.I never offered feedback to the waitstaff about a chicken roll. I never recommended the chicken roll. The restaurant or manager was never privy to any private conversation, with another customer. Those comments are untrue and disappointing. If this restaurantis concerned about the customer experience, the owners and management should focus on what is stated, for areas of improvement. For ex. drinks that are overcharged and tea that is free in other establishmentsWhat's unfair? My review is honest and professional. It's interesting to me the negative part of my review is denied,and the positive part ignored yet detail is requested from reviews without any, so you may assist and help! Not to criticize the customer and defend problems.The review is half positive with room for improvement, it's 3 stars (which means good). It's recommended and I listed many reasons for that! Some of my favorite restaurants have only 1 more star, and I frequent my 3 and a few of my 2 star reviewsProviding a critique and a food being inedible are completely different things. Customers can eat food that is lackluster, subpar for what it should be, especially for the price point. It is very sad and poor management to be defensive, and making things up, instead of appreciating patronage and interest in the business, and striving to improve. It's leaving a very bad taste in my mouth, the food never did.I'm keeping the stars the same in good faith, hoping the approach and attitude improve, as there is much to enjoy about the place

Went there with some friends the day after a wedding. We arrived before they'd technically opened, but they were happy to show us to a large table and shower us with attention. We had excellent Peking duck, bao, spring rolls, stuffed mushrooms, wonton soup…way too much food for us to finish, but we gave it our best try! All super delicious, and all served with a smile. The hostess even took some photos of our food for us!

The food is delicious! Both myself (vegan) and my boyfriend (not vegan) have enjoyed our food every time, whether we've dined in or taken out. The servers we have had have been attentive to all our needs and concerns. Really happy to have found a place to eat this cuisine vegan.

Went because it's vegan place. I appreciate the effort to run vegan business, but the food is just mediocre. I would appreciate simpler food than mock everything. But to each their own.
