Pinellia Vegan Asian Restaurant

The restaurant was not very clean and the staff was not very welcoming. There were stains on the table cloth and food on the walls. The straws were in an open bag with no wrapper, where he told us we could grab one. Who knows how many people touched them. My soup bowl and spoon were not properly washed. There was crusty food on the spoon and black stuff on the bowl. Followed by my fork having food on it. This goes to show that they aren’t washing things properly or paying attention yo the cleanliness. No apology. The food itself was good though. I chose the M8. I won’t be returning.

I recently visited Pinellia Asian Restaurant and had a mixed experience. The service was about a 3/5—I had to ask several times just to be helped, and no one really checked in to see if we needed anything else during the meal. That part was disappointing.

On the positive side, the food was decent, and the scallion pancakes were definitely my favorite—crispy, flavorful, and the highlight of the meal. Overall, I’d come back for the food, but I hope the service improves to match the quality of the dishes.

This place has been my go to when I’m in South Bend for the past 5 years. The choices you have are all great and everything is vegan. No matter what you choose to eat you will love it. Seems like a family owed restaurant, not super big but cozy. The food is savory, tasty, and well portioned. The service is great and friendly. I had the basil seitan dish, the Singapore noodles without the curry sauce she made it with white sauce, and had the miso soup. If your in South Bend and craving healthier food I recommend Pinellia.

The food was so tasty, vinegar and sugar in just about all the dishes, totally nasty.

This place had tasty food, affordable prices, and generous portions. The service was great and felt like family! They even let us bring in our well behaved dog so he did not have to stay in the car.

Excellent Pineapple fried rice

Huge portions and large variety of dishes to choose from. Service was okay and the atmosphere could be labeled as unassuming at best. The flavors are great which outweighs all else.

I love walking into a restaurant and being able to order anything off the menu and not worry about it having animal products. The food is always delicious and there's a varied menu.

Food was good. A bit too much sauce on a few dishes, but tasty.

Got the orange seitan and it was so good! My mom got the garlic sauce soy protein and she loved it, she is even a meat eater!

Genuinely just giving this 5 stars for this place being what it is. I hope to go someday.

Thankful to have this vegan restaurant in our community.

My favorite restaurant in South Bend, probably Indiana. I want to come back to this town only to eat here again.
