Finally tried Cisu Vegan House after all the rave reviews and I can tell it will earn a place on my Top 10 list by the end of the year. I ordered the following items on Uber Eats: - Curry Puffs - Vegan Nuggets - Salt & Pepper Tofu - Black Pepper Ban Mein w/ Thick Noodles The portion sizes for the main dishes (Salt & Pepper Tofu and Ban Mein) were generous, about 2-3 servings and shareable. Which is pretty amazing considering the Ban Mein was $10 (on Uber Eats). I made sure to try a mix of dishes that both featured and didn't include meat substitutes...I was WOW'd by all of the food! As a meat eater, the vegan beef in the Ban Mein was very well seasoned and the flavor indiscernible from real meat. I was especially shocked by how much I enjoyed the vegan nuggets. They had a slightly nutty flavor (likely due to the oil) and a great texture. The salt & pepper tofu and curry puffs were standard, but good. Overall, the food at this restaurant runs a little spicier than usual American Chinese spots. Flavors like curry and five spice came through more, and two of the dishes I ordered used fresh peppers (instead of just pepper flakes). I loved it and will be ordering again! read more

Cisu Vegan House - - Black Pepper Ban Mein w/ Thick Noodles (already started eating), Curry Puffs, Salt & Pepper Tofu, Vegan Nuggets - Vegan Near Me - Hanover, Maryland

No onion no garlic restaurant....always a stop from a trip up north . I ordered these dishes recently; C4 Mapo Tofu - best vegetarian mapo tofu in all dmv vegetarian restos C5 Salt and Pepper Tofu - best dish for the fried at heart peeps. You have to spread the toppings so when you bite into the tofu, there is some flavor. best eaten once the dish comes out of the kitchen S5 Taro balls - breaded mashed taro needs the sauce that comes with it. Taro is a root often used in Chinese dishes and a healthy carb. Fried may be a different matter so that should balance out lol S9 Fried Wonton - not bad but all carbs; ratio of filling to wrap is 1:6,. While I liked it I wish there were more filling S13 Curry Puff - curried mashed potato in pastry. I like the taste and pastry, though the mouth feel is a bit weird. Better if potatoes were diced then it's similar to a samosa. Have ordered Thai green curry in the past and I love that. Green beans are good as well. Every thing is served in take out boxes and they have seating if you want to eat there. While I'm not a fan of that they use paper containers and most likely compostable and I probably should find out. Happy we have this restaurant in the DMV. read more

Staff is super nice and helpful. I got the vegan nuggets and the salt and pepper tofu and both were outstanding. I even got peanut sauce on the side that I ate with the food. Took him and popped it back in air fryer to get it crispy again after a long drive home...delicious and healthy! read more

I've passed by this place so many times but only finally got to try it the other day! When you walk in, it's a small unassuming restaurant with some tables but mainly monitors where you can order your food to go. There's a shelf with a few vegan snacks, condiments, mock meats, etc to peruse through while waiting for your meal. I was so happy to see they had boba without milk! I usually order boba with milk alternatives since I'm lactose intolerant so this was great to see. I would definitely come back for this esp the boba was only $5 - a steal fr. I got the mango while my partner got the taro one. Not too sweet & the boba was chewy. As for the food, I got the kung pao chicken & coconut puffs. I like the sauce that went with the coconut puffs, it reminded me of Malaysian food. As for the main, it was ok, I got two portions out of the $15 meal but it wasn't my favorite. But I plan come back & try more of the menu! Also saw they had a buffet option every now & then so fun! I'm not a vegan but I like eating plant based when I can so I was happy to see a place like this open nearby. Going again for sure! read more

This is a nice, bright and understated restaurant, with tasty entrees. There is space to line up to place your order, however using tech was what we chose. It was easy to place the order, choose a table and chat while food is prepared. The food was brought to our table. I ordered General Tso's 'Chicken' and it was really good: both sweet and spicy. I also ordered pineapple fried rice and would say that it wasn't as salty as I'm used to. Also, I would have loved more pieces of pineapple. I would recommend this place for the 'chicken' alone. read more

I just revisited the place after seeing another review.... The service was efficient & the staff was extremely friendly. Presents like a typical carry out, but I like the concept with the little convenience area and I noticed an area in the back to play games, which I thought was nice. Honestly, I forgot to post the review when we picked up dinner here some time ago. I really needed to try them again. On our first visit we had the baby bok choy, Singapore noodles, the crispy eggplant, Kung Pao and curry puffs, I believe. This time I ordered the salt & pepper tofu (10/10), the bok choy (7/10) and the crispy eggplant (9/10). Now to be very honest these dishes would have been even better if we had eaten there,because the fried items would've retained their crispiness, but everything was still good. I've been thinking about the salt & pepper tofu. May even grab it again this week. It was just that good. I definitely recommend you try this place if ever in the area... I'll be visiting again soon. read more

Great find! Unassuming strip mall food place with clean tables and large veggie menu. Noodles, Asian, and some great appetizers-all vegetarian. I had no clue when income In and the cashier was happy to help and make recommendations. I got a bunch of appetizers. The wonton were excellent. Filling was limited but bursting with flavor. Coconut puffs were basic with thick brown sauce that is addictive. Korean crispy beef were thick coin medallions that tasted like breaded beef. The food is unique and special. This place is worth the trip from Baltimore!!! read more

I love this place! It should be 5 out 5 reviews here on Yelp. One of the best vegan places I have been to in my life. The chef is a master of flavor and getting huge portions. Friendly people, hardworking, with a huge menu of different options to choose from. Favorites: Lo Mein noodles Vegetable dumplings Sweet and Sour drumsticks Black Pepper drumsticks mango pudding Bubble tea Green oolong Rose tea I don't live in MD anymore but in the past 2 years, this years I go there 3 times and last year I went 3 times. They made a huge impression on me. Thank you for all that you do. read more

This food is amazing. Delicious and all vegan. Had to pace me-self because me tastebuds created the urge to get as much of it into me belly as quickly as possible. The coconut fritters were my favorite. What a fantastic treat !! We placed our order on the website and found it very user-friendly, complete with beautiful photos of the dishes. Our food was ready right on time. I didn't see the interior of Ciau Vegan House personally because my husband ran in to pick up the food while I waited in the car, but judging by the high-quality of the containers the food is in, I would expect it's a classy joint if you're dining inside. YES: ALL VEGAN read more

The staff is very kind and helpful. They occasionally host an all-you-can-eat buffet. Even the meat-eaters I have taken here were pleasantly surprised by how good all the food is. There is a variety of Asian style dishes. I recommend the vegan beef as well as the vegan shrimp. My favorite is the pineapple fried rice with vegan beef. Their noodles are also delicious. There are a variety of Boba, canned drinks, vegan jerky/snacks, and packs of vegan dehydrated meats at the front. They don't use any onion or garlic, just hing. read more

What a hidden gem! As a vegetarian, I loved this place because I had so many options with what to eat. I was overwhelmed by the options, and decided to get the kung pao tofu. I appreciated that they came out quickly with my food! I was shocked with how perfectly crispy the tofu was, it made me keep munching on it. There was plenty of table space. As we walked out, I saw the giant fish tank which was so cute. Will come back again! read more

The vegetarian meat is actually quite good. I felt it had texture was similar and I didn't miss the meat that much. However, the portion sizes were really small. For example, the wonton appetizer was very small portion size. The wontons were like 1/2 the size of a typical wonton, and wontons aren't that big to begin with. The mei fun was actually quite tasty and had good smokey flavor. But again, the portion size was small. Ambiance was pretty average. It's clean and very bare bones, but i don't mind that. read more

Yayyyyyy for the new Vegan restaurant. The food is flavorful. I definitely enjoyed all my purchases. I noticed they have a lot of healthy vegan snacks right at checkout. I pre ordered my food online. I didn't get a chance to dine in. They do have dining in options. I definitely plan on returning to purchase more from the menu. Everything was delicious. If you haven't already, you should check them out. I am not a vegan, but I do love vegan food. The service for my pickup was prompt. Can't wait to return. read more

What a lovely hidden gem! My husband is currently doing a mostly vegan diet and found this little spot and wanted to try it. The inside is pretty simple and unassuming: you order your food at the kiosk and can take out or sit at one of the tables. We dined in. Customer service was pretty friendly. We ordered the coconut fritters and spicy wontons for apps, and both were delicious. The seaweed salad tasted as expected. For entrees, we ordered the kung pao beef and shrimp lo mein. The kung pao beef was so delicious. Idk what the "beef" was made of -- mushrooms or a tofu/soy mix of something maybe? But it was so good you didn't even really miss the real beef. The only thing that was just OK to me was the "shrimp" from the lo mein. I think I'll stick to regular seafood shrimp, ha. But the lo mein noodles were good. My Thai iced tea was also tasty. Overall, a great lunch and we left full and satisfied. We'll be back! read more

Small little vegan restaurant with a variety of Asian dishes made completely Vegan and no onion or garlic, which is great. The service is very nice and ordering is easy. Everything is served in to go containers but there are tables so you can eat inside. The salt and pepper tofu was fried very well and the XO Sauce Eggplant was great, although a little too sweet. I'd return one day to try a few other dishes but it's a nice healthy option to the Arundel Mills area. read more

Cisu is awesome! I love that they offer Asian vegan dishes, some of which I've never heard of, and some that feel close to home. Their set up is takeout style, but if you want to eat there, it's very clean and they bring your food to you. When waiting for your food, you can hear them freshly making it in the kitchen, and the food comes out piping hot. I'm not vegan, but I love trying vegan cuisine. I've only been here twice, but I have to say that their Cisu Signature Bowl is the BEST thing on the menu. The broth is so rich and flavorful; the thick noodles have a great texture, slightly chewy; the mushrooms are little flavors bombs and one of the best parts of the dish. It seems like this dish is mimicking either beef stew or taiwanese beef noodle soup, and it does a good job. The texture and taste of the imitation beef is typical of a soy based imitation meat, so it's just ok, but everything else in the dish shines. I would come here again and again for this bowl of noodle soup. I've also tried a couple other dishes: - Buddha Bowl: it's a solid noodle soup dish. The mushrooms are also really flavorful in this dish. It includes some imitation fish balls which are good. The broth is simple and doesn't have too much going on. - vegan nuggets: these were pretty good. Super crispy on the outside and has a fluffy/stringy texture on the inside. - hot and crispy eggplant: it's true to its name as it's hot and crispy. But the sauce is a little too sweet for me. The breading is fluffy and it's super thick, and the inside is soft how you would eggspect eggplant to be (ba dum tsss). If you've ever had asian fried bananas, it tastes similar to that. For me, it was a little hard to finish these because there was a lot of batter around the eggplant and the sauce was too sweet. These would be good as an appetizer, but I wouldn't be able to eat it as a whole dish. I'm excited to come back and explore more of their menu (but I'm afraid nothing can beat the signature bowl!). I wish there were more restaurants like these everywhere. read more

The staff is friendly, but the last two times we ordered takeout, there was hair in the food (which was surprising because the restaurant looks clean inside). We also struggled to find dishes that weren't greasy. It would easily get 5 stars if they could improve on the hygiene and do some oil-free options. They have some tables for eating in, and several vegan dried foods (like jerky) for sale near the entrance read more

Yes yes yes and yes! This place was amazing and the prices are very reasonable. I don't usually review take out places but Ci Su out did themselves. I am not a vegan but I love this place. The food was hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious. My husband and kids did not even know they were eating a vegan meal. I can't wait to go back and try more items on the menu. You can order at the register or on a kiosk that has tones of pictures. The staff was also helpful if you had any questions. The place is very clean and I will be back to try the ramen for lunch. read more

i was looking to try a new veggie place and came across Cisu so decided to check it out. It's an Asian-vegetarian restaurant so i ordered the king pao tofu with noodles. the flavors and portion size of both the tofu and noodles were good - the dish was a little pricey but the flavors of the tofu, the coating on the tofu, and the spiciness were all good overall a good and flavorful Asian vegetarian meal read more

I am remiss in writing this review. I was completely dying for Chinese food last weekend and I came across Cisu. Vegan, Chinese, and close to me -win! Located in Ridgeview Plaza by the Food Lion on 175 this spot is very bright and clean. The staff are so nice and helpful. The menu is great with a mix of vegan "meats", tofu, and vegetables to pick from. I got the Kung Pao Tofu. It was so delicious and flavorful. And there was a ton of it. I ate it for three meals. My picky meat eating husband was really happy with his pineapple fried rice and spring rolls. The prices were great as well. Cisu is definitely going into regular rotation. read more
