Refreshing 100% Plant-based menu

Everything on the menu is vegan! Scallion pancakes and the BBQ seitan as appetizers were delicious appetizers to start off. Orange seitan and General Gao’s seitan were amazing.

Pros: All vegan!, Plenty of options

Solid vegan food, drinks and desserts!

I love that everything here is vegan. I can get Thai iced tea, banana spring rolls with ice cream, soy products as a protein and not just having veggies as the protein. I miss the Brookline location so I’m glad this one is still open. Staff is very kind.

Pros: Many options, Vegan drinks and desserts, Peaceful location

Great food

My main course was on point. The veggies were crisp and colorful, and the protein was cooked to perfection. You could tell that the chef really knows their stuff.

Delicious vegan Chinese food

Had a wonderfully delicious dinner of General Tso's not-chicken [protein of some sort] and outstanding scallion pancakes. I was the only customer. Please go there to keep them in business!

Pros: Great flavors, Fast service

Authentic food full of taste

We tried several dishes, all were fresh and tasty. We liked especially kimchi, seaweed and dumplings.
Also recommend trying their chocolate cake - delicious, creamy, having appropriate level of sweeteness.

Cozy vegan pan-Asian place.

Was trying to find vegan food that wouldn’t take me too deep into the hellscape that is driving within Boston proper, and this was it! “100% pure vegan” according to the menu (sounds pretty vegan to me!) in an area that was very relaxed with lotsa street parking. Place was small and cozy and quiet, probably a great date spot.

Food was excellent, came out super fast, and the price was right. Our entrees came out with complimentary miso soup and brown rice.

Pros: Atmosphere, Location, 100% pure vegan food

Yummy food

Food was delicious and flavorful. Good portions. The main entree comes with a side of brown rice and miso soup. Staff was on top of coming back to refill our water/teas. Definitely will come back again.

Great apps and meals

Large portions and not very expensive. The spring rolls were good but a little under cooked for my taste. Highly recommend the scallion pancakes!! Pad Thai was very good but could use a little less lime juice/zest

Updated from previous review on 2023-03-26

Pros: Everything is vegan , Large portions; very filling, Good pricing

Good Pan-Asian and all vegan!

Quite tasty take out. We started with the vegetable tempura and spring rolls and loved them. Sauces were excellent and the portions just right. For meals we had the General Tso’s Soy Protein and the Pad Thai and we ate every bite. For dessert we tried the chocolate cake with the strawberry topping and it was ok, not the most tasty, but a sweet finish to a fabulous dinner otherwise.

Good food

Delicious food. Get N2 - Udon, you won’t regret it. We also got one of the soy protein main meals. It was good, but can’t remember the name. Also, the tea is good and the edamame is top tier.

Pros: Everything is Vegan, Friendly Staff

Amazing

This place is so delicious. Right up the road from the place I was staying. Everything is vegan. I got the Malaysian stew but got seitan instead of soy protein. Very refreshing to have all vegan options to choose from.

Have mercy, this place is awesome

The food and service are 1st class all the way.
The seitan is phenomenal: firm and slightly crispy, not wimpy like you may find in other eateries. Try the smoked Teriyaki seitan strips...Truly the best.

Pros: Extensive menu, Good value

4 stars for being 100% vegan

This place is pretty far outside of Boston. I don’t believe that there is much else nearby, so, on this alone they are to be applauded. The prices are fair and they have a large menu. I got the steamed dumplings, which were very tasty. I got the General Tso’s Soy Protein, which is breaded and fried soy protein on a bed of broccoli, and smothered in General Tso’s Sauce. It was good, but the sauce was more like sweet and sour sauce or sweet bbq sauce than General Tso sauce. Too sweet for my liking. Still, I ate every bite.

Absolutely love this place. I’m hooked on the Orange seitan meal. It hits a spot that I haven’t had since before giving up meat.
