Chinese takeout that hits the spot

Chinese takeout that hits the spot. I had ordered from Zen Vegetarian before and recently gave them another try. Glad I did because this order was much more satisfying. The General Tso’s is fiyah. The marinated soy chicken texture and flavor were on point. The vegan goddess stir-fry noodle was tasty. The Chinese broccoli and eggplant chili sauce rounded up the order. Gotta have those veggies.

The only thing I’d wish for is to be easier to identify which dishes are vegan. The whole menu could actually be vegan. I am finding contradictory information online. If anyone knows, please share.

Generous servings. Cash only.

Cheap takeout Chinese, but also better quality and tastier food than any other Chinese places Ive had!

This is my go to spot, always reliable and the host is so nice!

Yummy and affordable

Reasonable prices, good portions and I love that they have desserts from vegan treats! The woman who takes your order is extremely sweet. More of a takeout place but they will allow you to use their restroom. Also nice that this is located so close to prospect park

Absolutely best vegan restaurant

Best vegan food and insane prices. Huge serving sizes and the lady who serves me is the sweetest!! Reccomend 100 times over. I got the mango chicken and Malaysian pancakes and a shake and it was all 10/10. Really worth the trip 🩷🩷

Amazing taste, pricing and options

We live on the same block and this is one of our top 3 places to order takeout from, because they are worth it. They also have truly yummy soy milkshake options ;P

One of the Best Tasting Vegan Chinese Takeout

The garlic eggplant and udon noodles with tofu are my favorites. Also the scallion pancakes are pretty great.

The only other vegan Chinese restaurant that I feel like is as good as this is Amituofu. But that's up in East Williamsburg, so if you're down in Flatbush, stop here!

They have cheesecake this doesn't taste the least bit vegan - it's so good, I want to believe that it is! I'm very glad I ordered from here on a whim (:

Dish had a very good presentation, especially for a take out order.

Pros: Very polite staff, Muck meat texture, appearance and taste on point!

Cons: Pricey, no seating , Steamed broccoli was very hard. , A excess water from broccoli ruined teriyaki sauce

Great standard Chinese takeout

I tried the teriyaki Seitan with snow peas and the ginger soy chicken. I also loved the steamed veggie dumplings. I only wasn’t impressed with the spring rolls. Overall everything was great!
Update: have also got the pumpkin cheesecake since and it was incredible!

Reliably good

The food is delicious and the servers are prompt and friendly. If you eat here with any frequency, as I do, they remember you; and if. like me, you also take out a lot of food, they may even offer you a free drink or french fries while you wait for your selections to be prepared and packaged.

My favorites are the, Sesame chicken, Teriyaki Chicken, Chicken sandwich, chicken nuggets, chocolate cake, and Fried wantons.

Their food has some pretty delicious food, and it's not too highly priced. I don't usually

Pros: Nice environment, Good food, Friendly workers

Cons: English isnt first language

Ordered in take out

I was so excited to get an asian food delivery to my home last night without having to ask a million questions about the food preparation and ingredients.
The entire menu is vegan other than maybe 2 -3 dishes that contain fish.
The food was very good, not great but certainly delicious enough to thoroughly enjoy my meal.
We even ordered vegan ice cream (on the menu) for dessert.
Delivery was fast and prices were very reasonable. The restaurant looks nice and I would consider dining in as well.

Pros: almost 100% vegan, Brown rice offered , great variety of options

Cons: food was very good, not excellent

What dishes contain fish? I come here often and I'm friendly with the employees, they told me everything is vegan.

Decent Chinese fare in Brooklyn

Hungry for Chinese food, my daughter and I headed here. Their food is fusion of American and Chinese and they are heavy on the mock meats. Most of what we had was great, but a few things were just too meaty! Yeah, I know, that's our fault, but we couldn't quite eat that much mock meat.

If I were to go back, I'd order less, and have the meals that I was ordering explained to me. I wanted more vegetables! :) Flavors were good. Service was good. Quickness was reasonable (we ordered, went shopping for 20 minutes, came back and it was ready for us).

Pros: Chinese food, Fun fusion ideas, Service

Cons: Heavy on the mock meats, A little oily, Not cheap (but not expensive, either)

Amazing asian style dishes

Wonderful establishment, with friendly, helpful staff! Food is delicious, servings are large. I live in the neighborhood and come here at least once a week because the food is so tasty. I was told everything on the menu is vegan, not sure if this is new based on previous reviews. Although not located in a popular area of Brooklyn, definitely worth checking out if you're in the mood for some delicious asian food.

Wow

We went December 2010.

Lets see: clean, tidy, super friendly, lots of action in the kitchen. Small place - seating for about 12 people. I guess takeaway/delivery is popular.

We had: seaweed soup and miso soup. Both were both a hit. I had the seitan with ginger and fresh crunchy steamed broccoli -- very tasty; interestingly they used pickled ginger. Actually am getting peckish while writing this review so helping myself to leftovers. . . Pretty big portions. Mushu vegetables with hoisan sauce was also very tasty - but the pancakes were a bit dry. Ooh - fresh carrot juice with ginger!

Definitely going back -- such a big menu (18 Appetizers, 10 salad/soups, 27 mains (brown or white rice), 5 types of fried rice, 8 noodles, 13 items under vegetables/tofu).

Ceramic crockery and plastic cutlery.

Prices for Appetizers from $3 - $7.
Prices for mains averaged at $11.
Fresh Juices $4.

Lunch special (noon to 4pm) $6.

Here is a link to their menu: http://www.flatbushvegan.com/2009/04/vegan-eats-zen-vegetarian-house.html

Pros: fresh + delicious food, friendly staff, clean place
