The best Chinese food restaurant! My absolute favorite is the Basil Tempura Gobo. It is spicy but the basil still pops. I think gobo is the better meat substitute as I do not like soy meat texture or after taste. I also love the Orange Beef Broccoli. Wonderful flavors and textures! My daughter loves the steamed buns and Hong Kong crispy noodles. The Kung Pao burdock (gobo) is my son's favorite! And we all like medium spicy. We are not vegan. The veggie ribs are awesome too! The "rib meat" is made out of mushrooms; amazing!! My husband is vegan and enjoys everything especially the duck. It is so fun to eat at a restaurant that we all enjoy the food! If you haven't tried her fantastic burdock (Gobo) "meat" or shiitake mushroom " meat" then do so. You will be amazed.

Really delicious! It can be tough finding good vegan Chinese food, but this restaurant delivered. The space is small, cozy and nice.

An amazing restaurant which serves organic (as much as possible) and it's 100 percent vegan. The number of options on the menu is insane! I love the vegan duck (it's very filling) and the rest of the options are phenomenal as well.

I've eaten here several times in 2022 and have always been impressed. This is fantastic Chinese food that happens to be vegan. On my first visit, my friend and I were one of 4 tables, with one of the tables being about 8 people. We were amazed and mesmerized that a single woman was able to serve about 14 people at 4 different tables in such a small space with such grace and warmth. On our second visit -- she remembered us and asked us friendly questions -- truly a talent in the memory department. Every time my friend and I visit - we try different dishes and they are all delicious. Nothing is overcooked nor oily -- a complaint I have with a lot of fast Chinese food -- it's all "Garden Fresh" and delicious. Highly recommend and look forward to returning.

A friend recommended I try this vegan Chinese spot and while I am skeptical of fake meat, everything was unbelievably delicious. The quality is very high and the presentation of the food is neat and positive and the service is friendly and quick. They also have a few good soup options and fresh juice options in addition to the rice and noodle options. We got the veg buns, scallion pancakes, szechuan eggplant, chow mein, General chicken, and basil tempura all to-go and everything was delicious and this restaurant does really honestly hit the spot for us and I think it would for anyone else who is interested in healthier eating without losing taste as well.. So impressed with the speedy service as well and can't wait to come back to try more.

My friend recommended this place to me saying that this is the only place they have vegetarian food because it's that good. The entire menu is Chinese food but everything is vegan. I am a life long vegetarian and I was really excited to try dishes like wontons in sesame chilli sauce which I cannot normally have anywhere else. We also have veggie ribs, veggie chicken kung Pao and Hong Kong crispy noodles. Everything was insanely delicious and the owner was super sweet and friendly.

WOW. Really good vegan food. first time having chinese vegan and i'm very impressed. Definitely must try the vegan duck if you like duck. I don't know how they get that duck flavor in the "meat". Can also try the sweet sour soup, General Tso's chicken, mongolian stirfry, basil tempura, eggplant tofu.

Lovely ALL VEGAN Chinese food spot run by a super cute older couple from Taiwan! They're super friendly and have such an extensive menu! Food was really yummy, the chow fun was so chewy! It's just so amazing how they've veganized so many traditional Chinese dishes for everyone to enjoy! Items we ordered: - hot and sour soup - chow fun - mango chick'n - fried pepper chicken

Seriously beats traditional Chinese food! Why not eat better if your craving Chinese food!? It's out of the area for me but worth the drive!
I'm not a vegetarian and I still love the food here! Always tasty. I've been multiple times with one of my best friends who is pescatarian, and I'm so glad she took me there. The sweet & sour "pork" is SO GOOD!!!

From the super sweet owner to the amazing food - this place is my new favorite in Mountain View. I've been vegan for 4 years and always look for high quality vegan food. My wife and I have both loved every dish that we've ordered so far. I've made one mistake and ordered online from one of their copycats and will not repeat that again :-) I'm a loyal fan for good.

Love this place, black pepper chicken always hits

We love Garden Fresh's Chinese vegan food! It is owned by a delightful couple, who remember us and our favorites even though our frequency is about once a month. Our family loves the walnut shrimp, basil tempura, and crispy noodles. It is great for takeout since the ambience for seated dining just isn't there.

We had a disappointing lunch time stopover on a weekday. The wonton in chili oil wasn't tasty at all. The general's chicken wasn't that great either. I wish it had some more carrots and peppers in them. Overall, based on the (lack of) flavor, can't really recommend this place.
