Incredible. So nice to have a full vegan menu of traditional Chinese food. Will definitely visit again. Highly recommend the sizzling tofu with house sauce and the wontons.

Delicious food, amazing staff - Edit
Really recommend this place. The food is nice, love the atmosphere and the staff is super friendly and cute. We ate here two days in a row. As it is Chinese style food, be aware of lots of sauces if it’s not something you like.

Sooo good! - Edit
There’s a reason this is a top rated place on Happy Cow. Everything was delicious. The dumplings were so flavorful, and the stir fried “lamm” was the best seitan I’ve ever had!

Tofu - Edit
I had the gung bao tofu and rice for main. It was very nice and good value with the refillable rice. The pumpkin lantern dessert was strange and not sweet but not unpleasant either.

spectacular - Edit
I can't wait to go back here again. It's pretty busy so a booking is advisable. I found it so hard deciding what I wanted. The waitress was so helpful and I really appreciated her honest guidance. The food arrived super fast but tasted amazing. The house dumplings are unreal. The service was great and I was on crutches and the lady was so nice helping me around the table. Definitely going back here, dreaming of the food until then!

OK - Edit
Went for a birthday and had heard great things but all the food was pretty bland, various dishes melded into the same flavour profiles, textures weren't amazing.

First Chinese since going vegan 7 years ago - Edit
Tofu Vegan is amazing!! They squeezed us in when another local vegan restaurant messed up our booking and I’m so glad they did because I had actually given up on Chinese food since becoming vegan but this place is incredible. Can’t wait to go back!! Staff were lovely, nice atmosphere and really reasonable prices. Their signature “fish” dish was recommended by our waitress and it didn’t disappoint. #Veganuary

Superb Vegan Food - Edit
Superb vegan food. Everything was great; Peking duck pancakes, fisc with bao buns, but our favourite was the king oyster mushroom with cashew nuts - delicious. Service was polite and efficient. They take cash as well which is great. A few negatives; firstly, they automatically add service charge to your bill which should be optional (discretely hidden at the bottom as S/C). Secondly, the portions are small (you will need 3 dishes) so it does work out quite pricey. Note, if you order the fisc you will need to order bao buns as an extra (6 buns at £1.90 each). Dishes don't come with rice so you need to pay for that on top too. Despite the negatives, the food is so tasty that we can't wait to return and we have to give it 5 stars because the food is so good. Let's hope the food stays as good as this.

I want to go back and try more as it was a filling meal and I didn't get to try as much as I'd like.

Vegan dim sum! - Edit
Soo good! Large menu of classic Chinese dishes that made it tough to choose. I never see so much variety in vegan dim sum so I tried a plate of mixed dumplings which were yummy, plus the salt and pepper tofu. Our table also tried the wontons and mapo tofu, which were very flavorful and yummy and not too spicy, and impressed the non-vegan eaters. Friendly and helpful staff as well. Wish I could eat here every day to try everything!

Nice but a little over hyped - Edit
I did enjoy my time but it is very expensive and not every dish was up to my standards for such a pricey place. But I would go again and try other dishes
