Good food, staff knows what vegan is

If you are looking for it, go through the archway to the Aqaba Marketplace and it’s tucked inside of there! Staff knows what vegan is and menu items are labeled vegan. Good selection. I had the Formosa tofu and enjoyed it. They are open during the day during Ramadan!

Excellent. Would give 5 stars if I could.

Best succulent Chinese meal I've had in a long time. Spicy beans and schezchwan eggplant dishes were both amazing.

Started good. Ended a little disappointed

Entrees were great. Scallion pie and springrolls.
The soja sauce was exquisite.

Sadly couldnt follow up with the main course, bok choy was bland and the Formosa curry didn't live up to our expectations.

Paired with the fact that this being the most expensive dinner spot we visited so far, wouldn't recommend

Pros: Vegan options, Front of the house is friendly, Easy to pick vegan options

Cons: Price/quality

Very good food

In Aqaba it was very difficult to find good vegan restaurants. That's why we were very happy that this restaurant offers different vegan dishes and options. Very tasty food and friendly staff!

Perfect

We ordered scallion pie (a kind of potato cake thing) spring rolls and fried tofu which they did in sweet and sour sauce for us. We also ordered the soya rice thinking it would have soya mince in but it was rice with soy sauce 🤦🏼‍♀️
All in all cracking food and the staff fully understood vegan. Happily provided takeaway box for us too as we couldn’t finish it all 😊

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Staff had good knowledge of what vegan is, Good price

They understand what vegan means!

This was the only place that we found in Jordan that actually understood what vegan means. Staff are very friendly, and there are various vegan options.

They have a delicious scallion pie, and we also got a shiitake soup and eggplant with Szechuan sauce that were very tasty. They also brought us some cucumbers and pickled cabbage. The lemon and mint juice was really refreshing.

It may seem odd to eat Chinese food in Jordan, but as they were the only place where we felt certain that we were getting vegan food we went back there.

Pros: Understand what vegan means, Many options, Friendly service
