Really wanted to like and support them. But sadly they serve noodles and not much else. The chow mein was recommended by the lady (owner/chef) she asked if cilantro was ok for us…there wasone very small sprig and a few slivers of cabbage and carrots . So disappointing!

How Shang Sway Tea House is an absolute treasure — lovingly run by a sweet elderly couple for the past 15 years. It’s hard to believe that everything here is made without onion, garlic, or meat, yet the dishes are so flavorful, satisfying, and perfectly balanced!
The food feels light but fulfilling, leaving you energized rather than heavy. Every bite tastes fresh, comforting, and thoughtfully prepared. It’s also amazing to know that everything is vegan and gluten-free, yet packed with rich, authentic flavors that rival any restaurant.
From the warm atmosphere to the nourishing meals, this place truly feels like a hug in food form. If you’re in Nelson, don’t miss this hidden gem — the food, the care, and the love behind it make it a one-of-a-kind experience. 💚
The dishes we had: Hot & Sour soup with rice noodles Wonton Soup Pot-stickers ( Dumplings ) Curry Pineapple Stir-rice

This is the best Asian / Vegetarian place in Nelson. We’ve tried everything on menu and they are all delicious! You can’t go wrong with this place ☺️

Enjoyed a Chinese new year lunch with my TCM cohort and had the won ton soup - It was SO GOOD! They were very friendly and lovely. Can’t wait to go back.

I’m happy to be here with my wife and so glad to taste a delicious and comfortable meal for my body. Thank you so much.
Currently craving it. My comfort food and happy place. I could eat here every day. My favourite is pairing the nourishing noodle soup with chow mien.

This restaurant is a hidden gem in Nelson, BC and serves amazing Taiwanese-style vegetarian food; the meals even taste better than most vegetarian restaurants in Metro Vancouver. My friends are not vegetarians but they did enjoy their meals. The Pot-Stickers and Chow-Mein are the must-try. We will be back soon.
Food good
