Perfect asian food. - Edit
The first thing you notice upon entering this restaurant is the amazing and authentic asian atmosphere and the friendly staff. Even though it is actually a vegetarian restaurant, the possibilities for vegans are numerous, which is not something you see in every vegetarian restaurant. The food was amazing, the portion sizes huge, and all that for extremely cheap prices - an all around great experience!

good restaurant - Edit
i like xu's cooking very much, although i prefer ordering à la carte, because the buffet is not that special in my opinion.
Read morebut we sometimes choose xu's (at midday) for family or birthday meetings, because the buffet and also the garden is good for kids - relaxing for the adults ;)
Pros: various choices (ordering from the menu), garden, friendly staff

Excellent - Edit
We visited it twice, and were so happy we discovered this place. On both occasions we used the "all you can eat" buffet (check out their website for buffet hours, they also function as a regular restaurant). It was a great relief to us to be able to try many unknown dishes (but totally safe from meat) and discover new foods. We really stuffed ourselves with everything from appetizers, main dishes, salads to desserts, and chose from dozens of dishes. And for a very reasonable price. Also, they have a very nice terrace. If we ever visit Vienna again, we'll definitively come to Xu's!

Great Asian food - Edit
This is one of my favourite vegan restaurants in Vienna! They have a really big choice of many different vegan dishes including fake meat. Everything I ate there was quite good!
Read moreThe prices are totally okay for the portions and the staff is very friendly.
So if you are a vegan of Chinese food in vegan version, you have to go there! :)
Pros: Excellent food, friendly staff, fair prices

Great vegetarian Chinese Buffet, many vegan option - Edit
XU's cooking is a vegetarian buffet place that offers both a la carte and buffet lunch and dinner.
Read moreThe food might not necessarily be very healthy, but it definitely is tasty. I have been there a few times with meat-eaters, and they enjoyed the food and were impressed. Also my kids liked the choice and the taste, which is not often the case in vegetarian or vegan restaurants.
Staff are friendly and knowledgeable as to which options are vegan, and they make a delicious coffee with coconut mil,.
Pros: Great taste, good variety, Many vegan options, Price moderate
Cons: Some food might not be very healthy

My pig out restaurant in Vienna - Edit
I've tried only the lunch buffet so far. It's cheap, the food is delicious, there's a great variety, and only a few of the dishes aren't vegan. The staff is friendly and there's always somebody who speaks English.
Read moreThe receipts are weird though (hand-written and only numbers, no item names) but the food is cheap, so I have never felt ripped-off.
Pros: delicious food, great value, friendly staff

love it! - Edit
The menu is very big, the prices are fair, the food was delicous! There's a nice atmosphere as well.The staff offered to pack what I couldn't finish.
Read moreI came back for the lunch-buffet and it was great! I ate as much as I could (and maybe a bit more) for 6.9 Euro's. I am very critical when it comes to food, but honestly, I liked everything. The meat loving friend who joined me couldn't stop eating either.
Pros: Excellent food, Great lunch-buffet

Great place! - Edit
Went here a few years ago in a large group (approx 15 people), and the staff was still very friendly to us, which sometimes doesn't happen with a big group.
Read moreThe food was exactly what I expected at a vegetarian Asian buffet, but it was really good.
I would definitely go back here. Everything I tried was delicious.

All you can eat - Edit
This review is for people who come from a background of NOOOO vegan or vegetarian places to eat where they live.
Read moreWhenever I am in a 100km radius close to Wien i go there for lunch. The lunch buffet is awesome. Almost all food is vegan. All food is delicious. I regularly take non-veg friends with me and only get compliments and questions whether we will make it in time to have dinner at Schillingers, too. :D
Yes some food is greasy. But that is only "some", the choice is outstanding. It's dead center wien. Has free underground parking first hour, next hour is 1 euros each. Park there, go eat, pay extra 5 euros and you can roam around the city for the next 5 hours while your car is buried safely in teh underground.
but WAIT WAIT WAIT
I forgetz to mention the drinks list!! ZOMFG! both the alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks are chinese specialties. the soft drinks are wonderful mixtures with aloe and mango etc, while my drinking buddies swear the creamy wines are second to none. So make sure to drink their specialty beverages instead of generic globalisation crap.
Oh and the garden is just wonderful too. Not big but lovely to sit outside during a hot summer day to eat and relax.
Pros: all you can eat for dirt cheap, wonderful drinks, great location and parking
Cons: some food is greasy, poor english speaking staff

I went there once in August 2009 and we ordered from the menu (no buffet for dinner?). Lots of mock meat dishes and plenty of pictures on the menu, to be honest though I didn't quite like the food, it was too meaty for my taste. My omnivore boyfriend loved his (vegan) mock-meat dish. I even asked the waitress if it _really_ was mock meat - apparently it's made from a mushroom base or something. I had a variety of "meats" in my dish (don't remember what exactly I had, sorry! Some kind of stew, I think) - "duck", "beef", "pork".
Read moreI want to go there again for lunch some time, I do think I'd find myself something yummy at the buffet.
Pros: mostly vegan, friendly staff, nice outdoor seating
Cons: no dinner buffet, mock meat too close to the real thing

very good faux meat - Edit
Fantastic! It has a great choice of (fried) vegan food. On the menù is written what is vegetarian (10%) and what is vegan (90%). Parking in the basement: tell them you've parked there, they will give you a discount card and pay directly at the restaurant.

Cons: fried

in his plan to make me eat myself to a type 2 diabetic early grave.

very good selection - Edit
We went here a few times and always liked the dishes. The waitstaff is very friendly and they have a sweet little garden where you may eat outside. I have eaten in Vegetasia I and II and like the atmosphere here better.

Amazing! - Edit
This place was fantastic, and so friendly. Huge selection of different dishes (mock meat, noodles, rice, dumplings, etc) with an unbelievably underpriced 7 euros for all you can eat. They've got these nutty dumplings that are out of this world, and the waitress kept on trying to get me to eat more even when I was totally full! =) This location was much better than the other one, in my opinion. Nice garden setting and more selection at the buffet.
Read morePros: delicious, huge selection, totally cheap

Fantastic - Edit
I really enjoyed my lunch here. The price seems quite reasonable for an all-you-can-eat buffet in Vienna. The staff is lovely and understands what vegan means, and can point out what contains eggs, dairy, etc. The food itself was delicious. I tried a bit of everything, and the mock meats were good although too authentic for my taste.

Not impressed - Edit
Maybe the lunch buffet is different, and maybe I would feel differently had I not come from a city with multiple vegetarian restaurants, but this was a negative experience. After being talked out of my choice, I was talked into a barely palatable and greasy dish. Yes, they brought the free plum wine, but that's the only positive. Overall, I would not recommend.

Cons: food, overpriced, waitstaff
