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.

Fantastic tofu - Edit
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

Not to be missed - Edit
Just great great great! Great selection of szechuan dishes and Chinese classics. Second time I went and we had to hold ourselves back from ordering the whole menu. Literally the tastiest vegan Chinese food you can find in London. Everything was a party in my mouth. The staff is also super sweet and happy to recommend dishes and combos. Make a reservation because they get busy. Come with a group of people to try as much as possible!

It was just Okay - Edit
I wish I could have loved more this place ! The dumpings were delicious however, the 2 other dishes we had were not horrible but just not too great. The vegan duck was dry and not so tasty, even though the sauce was delicious. And the fried tofu was so sour ! We thought that it is going to be sweet, but it was only sour and not so appreciable to eat. The pumpkin sweets were nice but not memorable. Quite disappointed with this place, what a shame ! But the decoration was great.

Tasty vegan food - Edit
Went for dinner with our toddler. We hadn’t booked (due to working around toddler’s nap schedule) and guy at door seemed a bit off about that but staff inside were really nice, gave our daughter special chopsticks and picked up the pen she was drawing with when she dropped it. Food came fast and tasted fresh and delicious.

Nothing compares…Tofu - Edit
A true gem that should never be hidden; simply the best vegan restaurant in London. I always have the tofish in chilli oil but the twice cooked ‘fish’ is also incredible (served with bao buns and a vegan mayo sauce); the wantons are also always a must, with a delicious garlic and chilli oil. Banging breaded mushrooms, marvellous morning glory style greens and the special friend noodles make great accompaniments to anything on the extensive menu. The staff are friendly in all sites and happy to make recommendations. Tofu Vegan - never stop ❤️

I would move to London for Tofu Vegan - Edit
I wanted to try every item on the menu!! Unfortunately I was visiting and only got two dishes, but the dishes were incredible! The waitress was very helpful in directing me to the best options based on my taste preferences. We got the soup dumplings in chili oil and the fried fish with lotus buns. I cannot stress enough HOW GOOD the food was. It reminded me of the Chinese food I grew up with in Southern California. The dumplings were perfect tasty bites and I literally drank the broth it was sitting in. The fried tofu fish with seaweed skin was very close to fish and super crispy and delicious. It has a light aioli that was a perfect accent to the dish. Highly recommend!!

Absolutely delicious - Edit
The wontons here are amazing, o definitely reccomend having them, and the began duck was delicious. It's completely vegan so have the entire menu to choose from, and the staff are friendly with good restaurant ambience. It is somewhat expensive, but typical London prices in fairness.

Delicious vegan Chinese food - Edit
It’s so nice to go to a Chinese restaurant and be able to order everything on the menu. There is also a gluten-free menu with a lot of options. The food was very well prepared and some of the dishes were new to me. Special shout out to the sweet potato pancakes with chocolate sauce for dessert, which were delicious. The prices were good - not expensive for the quality.
Read morePros: Wide range of unusual dishes , Well cooked food with gluten-free options, Very friendly and efficient service
Cons: All the food was fried so be prepared for oil, A bit spicy for me so order carefully
