Here for lunch

Can't find a vegan option in Malacca. So we decided to stop by Mei Lin to try out vegetarian food. Tried Mee Sua, Indonesian fish, tofu.

Pros: Reasonable price, Plenty of options

Cons: A typical Chinese restaurant not much of deco

Mushrooms are incredible

Came here after searching for vegetarian food in Melaka, quite a quiet location, and even though we arrived just after it opened, only just managed to get a table as lots were reserved. Staff were very friendly and kind. Food was incredible, especially mushroom dishes, tofu and mock prawns sweet and sour. Very reasonably prices and nice you can get small/ medium/ large portions. Just be warned vegetable curry is quite spicy!

Pros: Not lots of mock meat, Lots of mushrooms, Friendly staff and lots of locals

Cons: Not much decoration in restaurant

Wholesome food, lots of options

A good number of options to choose between, including plenty of vegetable/tofu based ones (rather than mock meat). Service was very quick (though we were the only ones there at the time) and the dishes were cooked well. My only complaint is all 3 that we chose tasted mostly of soy sauce, but for the price and freshness we are willing to accept that. All dishes can be ordered S/M/L. We got 3 small dishes and 1 bowl of rice for 2 people, if you are rather hungry you would probably want 4 small dishes (or to increase the size ordered).

Pros: Freshly cooked, Healthy ingredients , Brown rice available

Cons: Flavouring wasn't so exciting, Location is not great to walk to

Secluded area but nice foods.

Secluded area.
For 2 pax, we ordered all 'small'. It was indeed small portions. But the foods are nice.
Staffs are all very friendly.

Love this place

One of the best places I’ve ever eaten at. Quite heavy on mock meats but there are plenty of other dishes for those who don’t like mock meat. The food is amazing - the best vegan Chinese food I’ve ever had. The mutton rendang in particular is out of this world. Staff are always super friendly and the prices are good for such delicious food. I would honestly eat here every day if I could!

Found this place on happy cow. It was quiet when I went there at about 8.30pm food was cooked fast and tasted very good. Dish sizes were quite good. Next time I come to Malacca I will definitely be coming back!!

Pros: lots of choices

Cons: a bit quiet... but not really an issue...

Tasty vegan food, tempeh too!

This is a little outside the main tourist area but the restaurant is clean and friendly. We had a tempe with okra (ladies fingers) dish, a mock chicken rendang and a sweet and sour bean curd dish - all delicious.

Chinese Cuisine

Came here with a group of friends, food is very nice, not salty, their fried "abalone mushroom" with Mayo is a must try dish.

Inexpensive tasty Chinese dishes

This is typical Chinese vegetarian restaurant that serves the usual stir fry dishes.

There are many mock meat dishes. I wasn't avoiding mock meat, but somehow I ended up with 4 dishes that had no mock meat in them: curry veggies, "three cups" brinjal, deep fried lotus root in pumpkin sauce, Kungpao Tofu. I found all the dishes good and tasty, except the kungpao sauce is not quite I am familiar with.

For two of us, the 4 small dishes with rice and Chinese tea, came up to RM55. (which is really cheap by Singapore standards).

The location is a bit far from Jonker street, but it's near Makhota Parade, tucked in a rather desolate neighbourhood. If you are shopping in Mokhota Parade it's worth walking across the road for a good meal.

We walked there from Pahlawan Megamall in about 10 mins.

Pros: Inexpensive, Tasty

Cons: A bit far from Jonker street

Fancier but still inexpensive

The restaurant is a little bit far from the touristic center but is a good option if you are in this area. They have a lot of choices for dishes to share as well as single portions. The prices are very reasonable. I suggest you to take the ramen. They are delicious.

Pros: Many choices

Cons: far from the center
