Such an amazing lunch experience with my family! The guy is such a hard worker! He is always busy yet the food is still great and he makes dozens of plates at once! There’s so much to choose from! I will love to be back soon but unfortunately I don’t live in New Jersey, otherwise I’d be there every day! Thank you so much again :)

Stopped in for a quick to-go lunch and ordered the BLT vegan wrap. Service was friendly and fast, but the restaurant itself could use some cleanup. The wrap had good flavor, but the seitan was deep-fried and didn’t seem fresh. Fries were the typical frozen variety, deep-fried in oil. Overall, not the healthiest option for a vegan meal—there may be better choices on the menu, but this one wasn’t it.

Matawan resident and frequent vegan tree customer here. Unfortunately, they have gone extremely downhill over the years, prompting me to reduce my formerly 5-star rating to 2. (Would go lower if Happy Cow would let me). The food is greasier, overcooked/burned more frequently, and I recently found a fried bug in my food... I heard through the grapevine that it is under new management as of this year, which could explain the downward trend, but this is unconfirmed. Nonetheless, very disappointed and will sadly not be purchasing from them again after many years of loyal service 😞
I found this place dirty. The kitchen doors were filthy. The food tasted like they don’t change the oil very often. The “prawn sushi” was awful. The guy their was very nice.

I wish I didn’t have to write this, but people need to know. I found bugs in my food — not one, but multiple. It was sickening. The man working there was apologetic, and I appreciate that, but let’s be clear: this is completely unacceptable.
What makes it worse is that I believe this place is now under new management hiding behind the old name. If that's true, it's misleading and disappointing. I used to trust this spot, but after this experience, that trust is gone.
No one should ever have to question the basic cleanliness of their food. I won’t be back, and I strongly suggest others think twice before eating here.
We were the only diners at 6:45pm on a Tuesday and perhaps it flows more as a takeout/delivery spot. The few empty tables they had still had old plates and cups on them so one had to be cleaned for us. We think only one person was working as they were doing it all.
Wings- delicious. Ripped seitan deep fried and crispy exterior with slightly soft insides. Flavored really well with a sweet chili dipping sauce and what appeared to be a buffalo style aioli on the sweet side. I could have eaten the whole plate- just wish there was a savory dipping sauce too.
Kung Pao Fusion- amazing flavor, love anything with zucchini- and slight heat as well. The soy protein in this had great density and was filling.
Curry-sliced crispy cutlet on top of a curry sauce with tofu and potatoes- very hearty and a great comfort dish. I think the cutlet was out of place and would have preferred the soy protein from the Kung Pao dish.
Very generous portions and the food needs to be experienced fresh! Interesting menu with the mix of sandwiches but stick with the pan-asian dishes.

What is happening with this place? The place is disgustingly dirty. Floors are filthy. Inside smells dirty. I would give it zero stars if the system would let me.
Best sushi tempura I have ever had.

Food is great. Place is clean and sanitary but the inside is not easy on the eyes. Smell from the smoke store is in the sir. Don’t matter though food is great. Come get you some!

This can’t really be considered a cafe, more of a delivery system with tables
Amazing food! I always get the wings and golden charm and it doesn't take like any other vegan food I have. This is an amazing spot and my go to when I'm in the area.
