IMHO this is the best vegetarian in the GTA! Each dish has unique flavors and textures, And there is an extensive menu to choose from. They have a great weekend dim sum menu as well.

came here for chinese new year with 2 tables of 10 for my gf’s fam dinner and i have nothing but good things to say!

1. all vegetarian dishes were so high quality, yummy, and very filling, as everyone enjoyed every dish and we still had plenty of leftovers at the end 😋
2. the price was incredibly reasonable for the 11 set course meal ($350 pre tax). they’re very competitive, compared to other chinese vegetarian restaurants 😄
3. customer service was very attentive, fast, and friendly when they were so busy on chinese new year🧧🐴. kudos 👏

Friendly Staff, Delicious food, Huge menu, & Decent portions. Accommodating and they modified to account for an allergy. Fully Vegetarian, but not fully Vegan

We tried their mock meat shrimp and the appetizer platter and everything was so good. The fake meat texture and flavours are on point and are so so so yummy.

i tried this place last week and it was delicious!! i ordered the mock sesame chicken and the crispy fried tofu with bean curd sauce. i think the bean curd sauce would’ve used a bit more salt and seasoning but beyond that, the food was cooked to perfection. sesame chicken was a customer favorite and it tasted exactly like chicken. and the crispy fried tofu omg…i will be getting that everytime i come back. the bean curd sauce pairs so well it too. i will definitely be back bc they’re doing a party tray special where you can get 4 dishes for $52!! what a steal. i can basically save it for the span of the week since each dish could last me 2-3 meals

Been here many times with family and usually have a good experience!

Food is okay, nothing mind-blowing but its decent. Portions used to be very good value for the price, however, the quality of the food has really gone down in the past year and portions have also shrunk.

Perhaps they've changed chefs or recipes but the most recent visit was somewhat of a let-down in terms of flavour and portions. A few of the dishes were very bland and had no flavour and when pointed this out to the staff, they said they'd let the kitchen staff know but nothing else was done about it.

Staff are pretty friendly most of the time. The atmosphere and decor is a bit outdated but that doesn't usually affect our dining experience experience! We might take a break from dining in again and hopefully, our experience is better next time.

Very hit-or-miss with the dishes. The produce generally seemed past its prime. The 79. 腊肉炒芥蘭 Fried Chinese Broccoli w/ Smoked 'Pork' where the Chinese broccoli is meant to be the star was not tender; some stems were too tough to chew. The rice-noodle dish used dehydrated seitan, but the pieces weren’t fully rehydrated and didn't have any veggies. We went on a Thursday afternoon.

Service was great at first, and the server was helpful and delightful, but things went awkward when she added a tip for herself before I could. While I was trying to figure out what happened, she moved the device closer to my card and tapped it without me being ready - ironic really, since I had planned to leave a much higher tip for her, as she’d been perfect until then.

We went for dinner here after having marked it for some time. Glad everything is vegetarian, but the staff communication is a bit challenging to figure out which dishes are vegan. Easy solution is to clearly mark them. Hope management is reading. The food is very good. We went for dinner and hoping dim sum was available as well. Perhaps next time. The vegan stuffed tofu, although limited quantity was amazing. The stuffed beans and tofu fried perfectly. The vegan eggplant was OK. The fiber pieces didn’t go well. The entire dish needed some more spice. Vegan Sesame Chik’n was perfect. Wish we could just keep eating it. Vegan Five kinds of Rice, Fried Rice is something we have never had and was a top dish. Healthy with a bit of oil. Vegan Fried Rice Noodle with Mock Beef (dried style) was OK. Bit greasy, less spicy but good. Service was good. The interior bit dated and bit cramped.

Guess we were the idiots and didn't do our homework first prior to entering this establishment. We stood by the door for more than 15 minutes just waiting to get seated then decided to eat elsewhere. I see now that there are reviews from other people with wait times for more than 1 hour and the restaurant is not that busy. 🤦

We has #4 and #49. Sesame chicken was really good, appetiser, not so much. Service was ok.
