DELICIOUS!! But takes some work to ensure it's vegan

Although the person I spoke to did not seem to understand vegan very well, once I thoroughly, clearly explained what vegan meant, she seemed to understand. My meal seemed fully vegan. I got the mixed vegetables with tofu. The tofu pieces were huge, but fried and sautéed well. The sauce that they put on it was delicious.

I was confident eating this meal, but I would've been more confident if I was able to order inside. I made a picture sheet to give restaurant workers to clearly explain what vegan is, even if they don't speak English. Message me here if you would like a copy.

This place is not COVID safe unless you do take out. I work at the hospital, so I am cautious and always do takeout. When I went to pick up my food, several customers without masks were going up to the open buffet and serving themselves as usual. All staff wore masks.

Gave it 4 stars (max) even though it was a bit of a pain to explain "vegan" over the phone. The food tasted THAT good!

Pros: Delicious, amazing flavor!, Take out, vegan fortune cookies, Staff wears masks

Cons: Not COVID safe, customers don't wear masks, Minimal staff knowledge of what's vegan, Staff might not think if all parts of dish are veg
