Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

Excerpts

***USP: decades old Chinese vegan place with mock meat based dishes. ***AMBIANCE: place is not very large and has stood the test of time. It's in need of some deep cleaning but is definitely very decent considering the age and the fact that it's run by a very old couple. ***FOOD: here is what we got- *black pepper chow mein- 3/5- lacked oomph and some kick. The "chicken" was more like tough pieces of soy. The noodles need a bit of char. *schezuan eggplant and green beans: 3.5/5: I love this dish and try to order it at every Chinese restaurant I visit even if it's not a pure vegan restaurant. The eggplants in this dish oozed out a lot of oil which wasn't very pleasant. The overall dish lacked a bit of flavor as well. Green beans lacked a crunch. Rounding off to 4 as the place seems to be run with a lot of love by an old couple.

The food is AMAZING! Alice is the nicest person ever. We had a wonderful time. I can't remember the last time I've been able to choose from a menu instead of just selecting the one vegan option they have. It was overwhelming in a good way! Thanks Alice for being so wonderful!

Just the most well seasoned made to order food I’ve had recently, I am a vegetarian but I’m so blown away by the flavors here. Pictured is the Singapore noodles & I also had there pan fried dumplings which are homemade & just perfect. What a gem my new favorite.
