Delicious and affordable - Edit
The mock chicken (kwachic) was delicious and had an impressive texture. The sweet and sour was so yummy. The orange kwachic was also great, but they really mean it when they say it's spicy! If you don't have a tolerance for heat, I recommend trying something not spicy from their menu.
Read moreThe vegetable soup, while simple, was so delicious. I could've made a meal out of getting several orders of it - it was that surprisingly good. Will definitely go here during my trips to Lexington.
Pros: Dedicated vegetarian menu that's mostly vegan, Affordable, especially during lunch special, Filling

Kwichic - Edit
Love this place! It offers the most vegan- asian options in Lexington at this time. The have a whole vegan menu with over 10 unique dishes and the staff is knowledgeable about customizing their other dishes. Best time to go is during their lunch specials, 12 pm to 4 pm. You will get the most bang for your buck in that window.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options, Friendly staff, Great prices

great! - Edit
I have only been once so far but had delicious sweet and sour “chickn”. My server was a bit confused when I asked what was vegan but we figured it out and I will be back!

They gave me REAL DEAD CHICKEN!!!! - Edit
Please beware of this place, If you do decide to go I would thoroughly check your food before taking a bite. I ordered take out and when I got back to work with it me and my friend both tried it and inspected the items and it was very clearly real chicken. I have never been so disgusted and disappointed. For a restaurant that places the word vegetarian on their sign they sure don't take any care to make sure they are feeding someone ordering off of the vegetarian menu the correct item.
Read moreCons: fed me real chicken, not vegan, do not care about dietary restrictions

excellent! - Edit
I ate here twice during my stay in Lexington. The staff was very nice and explained their lingo for meat substitutes. There a lot of options for those that abstain from meat and animal product consumption. The food didn't stick around long enough for me to take a picture!
Read moreMy GPS took me to the LA Fitness. They are actually located a few stores down from the Walmart and the Qdoba Mexican Grill.
Pros: variety, helpful staff to explain vegan options, reasonable prices

Best Vegan Asian in Lexington - Edit
Asian Wind is one of my favorite places in Lexington. This is actually where I had my first meal out as a vegan. Harrison, a waiter, knew exactly which items on the menu were and weren't vegan. The kwachic is quite tasty, and comes in several styles. The lunch deals here are awesome, and the vegetable soup is simple but good. Excellent place to go with non-veg friends as most of the menu is your typical American-Chinese fare.
Read morePros: Selection, Price, Service
Cons: Not the healthiest, Processed

Will go again - Edit
The sesame kwachic is my favorite, and I definitely recommend it. The general tso kwachic was good but not as good as the sesame.They also served a lot of pieces of the kwachic (more than I expected). The rice given was bland,but it is vegan as long as you make sure they serve it with no eggs.
Read morePros: Good food, Good value
Cons: Rice is bland

Good food, but equal & cheaper options nearby - Edit
We like the atmosphere at Asian Wind, and the food is very delicious, but we've found that portions are small. We live nearby and prefer Peking Bistro, which is in Beaumont Centre and has equally good vegetarian offerings for less money.
Read moreIf you need a quiet place to sit and have a relaxing meal, go for Asian Wind ... but if you're just looking to bring a meal home, their competitor 5 minutes away has great food for a cheaper price. (I'm all about the money, in addition to the menu choices. :-)

Lots of options, good food - Edit
Restaurant serves meat, but you can request a vegetarian menu, which has mock-meat versions of many of the items on their menu.
Read moreWe asked a few questions, to see how much we were willing to trust the 'veganness' of the menu, but they seemed pretty legit.
The food was good and flavorful - nothing unique or overly-amazing, but it was good and not expensive, so that meets the criteria of a good meal.
If you're in the area, this place is worth visiting for their General Tso's.
Pros: Knowledgeable staff, Lots of vegan options
Cons: Serves meat

Great Food - Edit
This is a place that my mother and I both can eat at. She is an omnivore and lover of Chinese food, so, when we travel to Lexington together, we always eat here. The food is delicious, and the waitors are friendly and helpful. The one thing to be careful of is their Vegetable Soup. They have tried a couple of times to give me the Wonton Soup without the Wonton. It's just simply a miscommunication though.

Lexington's jewel - Edit
My girl and I make it a point to go here every time we're in Lexington - the kwabeef and kwachik are excellent, especially in the breaded/fried varieties (like the general tso's or orange chicken). They have some other interesting versions like 'grilled chicken' and tasty vegan appetizers. If you are looking for vegan food in Lexington, this is the place.
Read morePros: great mock meat, vegan-friendly, tasty
Cons: out of the way

Fake Meat a Plenty - Edit
If you are one of those who longs for a specific meat dish from your carnivore past then this is the place for you! They make every staple of chinese cuisine with a fake beef or chicken substitute. The food is very good and you will be dazzled by the options. The place is in a strip mall, but it tries to be charming. It has a little pond inside.
Read morePros: tons of options
Cons: strip mall

Favorite place to go! - Edit
I love this place because they have their own fake chicken and fake beef call kwachik and kawabif. Sesame kwachik is the best but has honey. I would eat here often but it is expensive. The staff is really nice and there are alot of veggies who eat here. Give it a chance, its so worth it.
Read morePros: kwachik, service, choices
Cons: expensive, weird decorations
