Definitely on the local favorite list! - Edit
Wish we knew about this place sooner! We’ll definitely be coming back! A good sized menu with lots of veganized favorites like almond chiken. The mandarin crispy tofu, almond fried fritters, chow mein, and fried wontons were all amazing.

Traditional Chinese - Edit
The mandarin crispy fritters were very crispy and yummy but had a tad too much sugar in the sauce. The mapo tofu was nicely spiced. The portions were quite big but we had to order the rice extra. Found the appetizer spring rolls rather pricey. Service was good.

Good Chinese Selection - Edit
Teapot Vegetarian is a family run Chinese vegan friendly restaurant. All of their food is plant-based and incorporates mock meats and sauces many people will be familiar with if they grew up in the States.
Read moreEverything is designed to be shared family style and portions are pretty good here too.
The Laksa was our standout dish. Everyone comes here for it and I could see why - the creamy coconut milk curry broth with noodles and veggies/tofu was spectacular and a must. We also enjoyed the Corn Chowder as that really reminded me of home.
Claypot Veggies were way too salty sadly and without the included rice, it felt like something was off. I should probably stop ordering claypot dishes at veggie restaurants as they tend to be very saucy without much else.
Service here was very friendly and they took great care of us. It's a relaxed environment and one I'd return to again.

Finally found a vegan Chinese Restaurant - Edit
Tasty and authentic. The steamed dumplings were excellent. I could come here just for those!. The tea selection is extensive. I had the West Lake Dragon Well green tea (Xi Hu Long Jing Cha). It was very good.
Read moreWe found the fried rice a little too oily and too salty. But you may not, we don’t use oil or salt when eat at home.
For us when we come next, and there will be a next time , we would get the plain steamed brown rice, steamed vegetables, and the steamed dumplings. But we will keep our taste buds open as this is our first time. I am curious to try the hot pots.
This is our second time and it did not disappoint. Better than the first. We went with the clay pot vegetable and tofu hot pot. Very tasty.

Good to hear from someone who also doesn’t cook with salt or oil at home. Appreciate that insight.

Only vegan place in the area - Edit
Nice place with friendly staff! They do a great job sealing takeout containers. I’m not really a fan of most Asian food, but the rama garden with peanut sauce is tasty!

Decent vegan place - Edit
Love that it's a vegan place that's been around so long! The food itself was decent but nothing to write home about. Could have been a little more flavor and a little less fatty and sugary

it’s pretty good but sometimes repetitive - Edit
Some of the dishes seem like they all just use the same sauce on different bases. I really like the laksa and the golden fritters. Been going here for over a decade even before I was vegan and it’s a family favorite.

No service - Edit
We had been to Teapot last Nov and loved the food however, we were craving good Thai food and went to this place a couple of days ago. Google said it closes at 8.30pm and we were there at 7.45pm but they wouldn't allow us saying they were not going to serve us any food because the place is closing. Why say 8.30 when they stop taking orders at 7.45? totally disappointed with the customer service (no service?)

Best food in town - Edit
Amazing food and service. The owner is needing support to stay open after 30 years and you won’t regret trying it out. I recommend the bo bo platter and the Thai tea.

Nice food - Edit
The mandarin crispy tofu was awesome. The wontons were too sweet though instead of salty.

Didn’t taste fresh - Edit
I ordered the Laksa and the tofu tasted stale. The dish would have been much better if the tofu were fresh. I don’t believe it is typically like this after reading other reviews. #Veganuary

Yum! - Edit
I was so sad when Teapot moved from Capitol Hill in Seattle to the Redmond location. They are one of the original vegan restaurants in this region! The food is so, so good.

Lots of amazing fun options. I've brought carnivore coworkers here and they didn't even realize the place was vegan - they just thought it was a neat menu.

Delicious Kung Pao tofu - Edit
Lots of vegan options making it hard to decide. Portions were shareable. For lunch we ordered 2 dishes plus rice and had some to bring home as well. Update 8/2022 brought my fam for dinner and tried Crispy Mandarin Tofu, Pad See Ew and Pot Stickers also all incredibly tasty!

Pros: Large shareable single dishes from 14.95-18.95, Delicious food like Crispy Mandarin Tofu, Friendly with lots of space between tables

A bit pricy, good if you want something in the area, food is mostly sweet - Edit
I've eaten here a few times. I find the prices a bit high compared to other places.
Read moreAlso, the taste doesn't really suit my palette. Most of their food is sweet. Their satay and vegetable chow mein are really nice, though, if you want something more savoury.
If you want tea, make sure to ask for the drink menu if you don't immediately receive it; they have a lot of options!

Great Service, Great mandarin Chickn - Edit
My partner and I came here for Valentine’s Day dinner after checking the hours on their website which said they were open until 9:30, but we were told when they got there that they actually had just decided to close at 8:30 but had not updated this information anywhere. Fortunately, the owner was very apologetic and accommodating and gave us free tea, dessert, and soup to make up for it which were all great! His reccomendatjon of the mandarin chickn was my favorite but the wontons were also very good. This place would be a 5 star with some better communication of hours but we will be back because of the customer service, friendliness of staff, and good food!

Takeout was just okay - Edit
I’m not sure about dining in, but the takeout I received was not very flavorful. They have great vegan options and maybe I just ordered the wrong thing.

I'm impressed! - Edit
food was great - our server recommended the laksa and we weren't disappointed. the mandarin crispy tofu was literally just battered, fried slabs of tofu, but it was delicious (though not at all spicy as the menu indicated). the potstickers were just okay honestly, they were cooked nicely but the filling was a bit boring; I think I would have enjoyed them more as a nice complement to the tofu if I hadn't already ordered rice but now I know for next time😄really really good, I look forward to visiting again!

Food was mostly great - Edit
The mapo tofu was delicious but the Singapore noodles we ordered were a bit under seasoned for our tastes. But the real star of the show was the chili oil they have on the side. That stuff was amazing on everything.
