Simple, delicious food

Freshy made food that is topped up often. I ordered option 2 (1 main, 2 side, 1 veg), and got fried rice, tofu mock meat and vegetables. The food was tasty and not too heavy. They have enough choices to keep it interesting and portions are very good for money.
Friendly staff that are very helpful.

Pros: Lots of options. Fresh food.

Delicious and filling - even my non-vegan friends like it

Great buffet-style food with good variety of vegan mock meats. Yummy and filling for a good price. I took a few non-vegan friends here and now they come back on their own.

Awesome, cheap, healthy food!

I was only in Auckland for the afternoon, but stopped with enough time to grab some lunch. Really generous portions here, and the food tastes great! For those that like your mock meats, they’re here. For those that like their veggies, they’re here as well. Including spring rolls and an amazing deep fried steamed bun, okay maybe not all of it was healthy! The woman who runs it is lovely and it’s great to support a smaller independent business😄

Pros: All Vegan, Cheap, Great portion sizes

Tasty and healthy food

Generous servings, even the small size, which costs $10. I chose black rice, curry and green beans. Very satisfying and tasty meal. If I worked in the CBD, I would be a regular.

Pros: generous serving size

Cons: closed weekends

THE GEM OF AUCKLAND

If you enjoy Asian food, you HAVE to visit this place!
It was the best meal I had while in Auckland. I had the combo four which let’s you try pretty much all the hot options. Their mock duck was incredible and their tofu drumsticks were amazing. The portion size is big for a very reasonable size. There is no real seating inside, however there are plenty of public seating areas nearby, definitely check this place out for Lunch when you are in Auckland, they are open 11-4 during weekdays.

Pros: Delicious mock meats, Big portions, fair prices and great variety, Lovely staff

the food is the best in auckland city!

i am buddhist vegan so i dont eat any garlic or onion, yet this is quit rare to sre in auckland. It is really lucky to find a conplete vegan place that also doesnt have any garlic or onion! The best thing is, th food wa so great,the portion was so generous, and the staff was really friendly and helpful.

The store is small but full with warmth and delicious asiain food. Any asian vegans would definitely love!

Please help them woth their business, i was there at around 11:40 where other cafe are already quite busy, but this store does not have any customers yet, I guess it may be because of the chinese name and the location of it being quite hidden. The food was really good, this is my favourite in auckland city, rice, curries, vegetables... comfortable and safe , and the cheapest u can get in city. my box only cost me 9.99, it has red rice with coconut cream, mixed vegetables, curry.

Pros: the cheapest u can get in city., the yummiest asian vegan food, no garlic or onion, suitable for buddhist vegans

Cons: limited seatings, best to takeaway.

Tasty & Fast Takeaways

The first thing we noticed when we came was how good it smelled and how clean this tiny place was. The food wasn't ready (they hadn't opened yet), but the smell convinced us to stay and wait :)
And it was worth it! Everything was delicious, lots of healthy veggies. The mock meat options are great too, they are marinated in tasty mushroom sauce with spices... whatever was done to them, was awesome!
We love good Asian food that makes you feel full of energy but light at the same time.
Great for takeaways (the place is tiny), but we managed to sit down right there and eat as there was nobody else.
There are vegan posters on the walls in English and Chinese. So good to be in a place that GETS IT.
Will return, for sure!

Delicious takeaway food

We are visiting Auckland and came here due to great reviews on this app. It definitely lived up to the reviews. The food had so much flavour. There was plenty of options available at an affordable lunch price. The lady who owned it was so friendly and I felt happy being able to buy our lunch there and support her business.

Pros: Delicious flavour, Friendly customer service, Plenty of choice

delicious home-made food

100% vegan, nice choice of mock meats, veggies and sides, all deliciously prepared by the owner - not too greasy or spicy. Excellent choice for a city lunch. Even our kids liked it!

Delicious food and friendly service

Love the food here! I found this place by chance and so happy that I did.

The owner is so friendly and helpful. The food is delicious and there is a lot of variety. My favorite is the char siu but it's so poplar it often sells out.

Try the steamed buns and spring rolls too. They're so good!

All reasonably priced. You won't regret it. Give it a go.

Pros: Lots of variety

Cons: Can't think of anything!

What a find!

I was travelling for work and looking for some fast vegan lunch noms and found this place. Well, it was hard to find as some other signs were blocking it, but once I did deliciousness ensued. I love all things sezchuan, and the sezchuan with mock beef was a treat! At these prices, try everything. The owner, ivy, is an absolute treasure.

Pros: All vegan! , Changing Options, Fast

Cons: Hard to find. Well, on Google Maps anyway.

Vegan Smorgasbord

I had stir fried noodles, jasmine fried rice, mock meat in bbq sauce, and stir fried mix veges -- all for $10.
Will be back for more :)

Interesting fact - the friendly owner is vegetarian not vegan.
I gave a HappyCow excellent reviews sticker to the owner, so it should be up on the window soon :)

Pros: Cheap yet delicious , Many options, Everything is vegan

Cons: Takeaway only , Can be a little hard to find
