I ordered kung pao tofu for takeout and was pretty satisfied. The service was pretty normal for a Chinese restaurant and the tofu was yummy. Lots of veggies and peanuts and just very satisfying. I would prefer the tofu a bit crispier for this dish. I would like to have tried the mapo tofu as well.

Amazing vegetarian spot that won’t disappoint meat eaters either - the dumplings are excellent and tofu box portions are huge.

Had the Mapo Tofu and Xian Noodles.
Mapo Tofu tasted pretty authentic and was really surprised at how good it was. 10/10
Xian Noodles was delicious as well. The noodles were a bit too long though. 10/10
Great spot for vegetarians and vegans

The mapo tofu was good. I’ve had many versions with firmer tofu, but the tofu here is quite soft and tender.

Most authentic and tastiest Chinese veg food in NYC. Every bite is a flavor explosion with a substantial amount of spice. Finally, great veg Chinese food. For two voracious eaters, we ordered 4 dishes & pot of tea; came out to $75 total (not including tip) which was a steeper than we wanted. We did leave stuffed and had some leftovers, though. Everything comes in plastic containers so easy to take home but don’t expect a classic dining-in experience.
Authentic and varied options you wouldn’t see on generic menus such as different types of mushrooms, seitan, and hand-made noodles. Can actually taste the Szechuan peppercorn in the mapo tofu; this renewed my hope in mapo after having unimpressive dishes everywhere else (cough cough spicy moon).
Very good vegetarian chinese food. The pricing is reasonable, the portions are good, and they have lots of options!

I do takeout here 2 days a week. It's literally the best vegetarian place that I've ever been to. Actually so good. I keep getting all the lunch specials, but the soybean noodles are the best. Highly highly recommend.

Every dish is a banger, and their imitations are surprisingly similar.

Tofubox I love you. My favorite spot for takeout in NYC. so many vegan options, all my non vegan friends love this place too. Really nice staff, seems to be family owned.
My favs: - chili oil won tons - crispy scezhuan tofu/vegan chicken - recommend getting a box to try a variety of items - great lunch specials that come w a drink
