This is a quaint, small restaurant run by a few women. The service was consistently friendly and the menu is large with a number of mockmeat and vegan Chinese dishes. They even have unusual mockmeats like mock-goose.
I loved my diced chicken curry, which was light, fresh and filling. Their mock chicken looks like tofu, but the taste and texture is actually quite close to real chicken, which might be a plus or minus point depending on your point of view. I was not so impressed with the vegetable deluxe stir fry, which was a variety of different mushrooms (including unusual white fungus), with a couple of vegetables, in a watery soy sauce. It lacked zing. On a whole, though, I think their food was excellent. Prices are extremely low (under $7-8 for most dishes), but you have to pay $0.70 for each small cup of rice, so it adds up to much more. I was disappointed that they didn't have brown rice. Still, this is a nice joint to get a simple, fresh, tasty vegan Chinese meal.
Absolutely delicious. Try the fake chicken and the seasame rolls. This place made my day. It does not have "ambiance", but its food is incredible and the staff was friendly.
Mog and I liked the food but didn't like the luncheon cubed style mock chicken much but the rest was okay. Not a pretty place but who cares really, yay its vegetarian. Thank you.
The food we had was quite bland and uninteresting. I suspect we would've had better food by going to a non-veg restaurant and just getting some vegan dishes.
The main dish I had here was incredibly cheap--less than $5. The food was very simple, healthy, and tasted ok.

One of my all time favorites. Walked in at noon. 20ish tables, more than half full, mostly Asian people, didn't hear too much English. Lots of people standing by the counter filled with homemade treats to the left. Sat down at a big round table with a couple, always delightful to sit with others like friends. Served a delicious tea, and ordered fresh soy milk. Fun menu, very low priced. Had the mock goose, a creative dish, 'meat' and crispy 'skin' and all! An absolutely delightful place.
PS - Does anyone know of a cookbook for mock-meat Chinese food?
