We had the eggrolls, fried dumplings, special fried rice, green beans, salted tofu, and beef plate, all vegan & delicious. I was curious about the salted limeade and was surprisingly impressed. The regular limeade is also good, tastes freshly made. I plan on bringing my family members with us next time. The portions for each meal are pretty good, definitely worth ordering one of each and sharing it. Definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone vegan or not.

Went to this Halal restaurant for the first time and overall experience was okay…read more We ordered their bun kabobs and few burgers. Taste was okay and nothing special. I must say their prices for the quantity you get is definitely expensive! Nothing is included. Not even a water. Everything is extra charge and separate. It appears that their tea was a famous item. When checked the price it was $3.25 for a very small cup! Not sure if anyone can settle with that 1 cup. Customer service was good. I also noticed that the way they have setup chairs and tables it is congested, crowded, and you can definitely bump into others if busy. Not sure if I will go again or not, but make sure you have deep pockets if you decided to go.

Highly recommend the Keema Paratha and chai…read more The Keema Paratha is a wrap filled with a fried egg ($1), minced spicy beef, peppers, tomatoes, cheese, and yogurt sauce. It's served with a small cilantro yogurt that has a bit of spice. It was a Houston flavor that's hard to explain. Very fusion structure that reminded me of a stuffed breakfast taco with a SE Asian kick. The place has a chill vibe that welcomes customers to sit and talk. Clientele is diverse and high energy. Will definitely be back.

Hands down, my favorite restaurant in Houston. I come here at least once a week, and I'm not even…read morevegan. The food is just that good. The servers are very nice and recognize me since I come so often. I recommend going there to eat because the food is not as good doing takeout (the takeout container traps the heat which cooks the food further and changes the texture). You can do their buffet if you want to try several of their dishes, but I usually order off the menu since I already know what most of their stuff tastes like. My favorite dish is the Cauliflower stir fry, they use Chinese cauliflower which I prefer. It's a healthy, simple dish, but perfectly cooked every time. Other standout dishes would be: Salt and Pepper Tofu, Spicy Dry Pot, and the Bok Choy + Mushrooms. The place is not too big, but there is usually ample seating. Casual and chill vibe, their music is a piano playing recognizable songs. Veggies are good for you and good for the planet. Vegetables dishes can be delicious when prepared properly. Come here to see how it's done!!!

This would be the 'hidden gem' I'd love to share with friends (or perhaps just gatekeep). The…read moreselection is quite varied, and has a lot of favorites, mostly Chinese/East Asian cuisine. Even though everything is vegan, there's plenty of saucy and spicy flavors to make it quite delicious! The sauteed green beans, salt & pepper tofu, hot & sour soup were my favorites. There's also dessert of coconut, fruit, and jelly (I ate so many bowls of it!). The staff were so sweet, and picked up our used plates fairly quickly. The pricing for the buffet is quite fair, at $16.50 per adult and $8.50 for kids under 4 feet. Hours are good, though there is a gap between 3pm and 6pm Mon-Thu, so keep that in mind. Also, you can order a la carte! They have quite a few delivery orders come in while we were there! My only note is to come closer to the busier hours. I think we came a little too early so the food wasn't quite as fresh, but they replenish the food throughout! I'm so glad I get to live so close to this place! Being across the street from Costco makes this quite dangerous for my wallet, but at least it's healthy!

Tuệ Tâm is one of my favorite vegan Vietnamese restaurants in Houston, and it never disappoints…read more Starting with appetizers, the fried egg rolls are an absolute must-order -- crispy and perfectly seasoned. The salt and pepper crispy tofu is a standout with bold flavor and a satisfying crunch. The lemongrass tofu is well-seasoned and solid, and the mushroom-based chicken nuggets are honestly one of my favorite appetizers on the entire menu. The fried pancake rounds out the appetizer options nicely as well. On the rice dishes, there's plenty to love. My wife loves the shaking tofu fried rice and orders it every time we visit. The combo fried rice and shaking beef fried rice are both great choices, and the special pot rice is a comforting, satisfying option. The hardest part of dining here is choosing a favorite entrée. The grilled fish platter -- crafted from tofu and seaweed -- is a masterpiece. But it's in fierce competition with the fried chicken rice, made from mushrooms and exceptionally delicious in both flavor and texture. I genuinely can't pick just one. Whether you're a longtime vegan or simply someone who appreciates great food, Tuệ Tâm is absolutely worth a visit. Highly recommend!

This was such a random spot! I spend a lot of time in china town and never knew this was here and…read morethat it was mostly vegan. A couple things to note: 1. It is not 100% vegan. For some reason, they have 1 item (egg roll) that is not vegan. 2. Service is full service style without full service quality. Would be a better setup if we could order at the counter and sit down because that's pretty much the level of service we received anyway, so just keep that in mind going into it. 3. It was pricier than expected. We spent $50 on the items shown here. I wouldn't say I was pleased with what we spent vs what we received. Overall, the food was a mixed bag.. the soup didn't have a ton of flavor despite it being one of their most popular dishes. The 'snails' were really interesting and I enjoyed them. For $20 I wouldn't get them again but they were fun to try. The steak dish was definitely the highlight. It was so good that my non vegan boyfriend bet me $1 it was real steak. It wasn't. Overall, I think it's worth a try but it's unlikely I'll be back anytime soon. Maybe to pick up the steak dish. Beside that, Trendy Vegan offers really good Asian cuisine at a more reasonable price point.

A couple of colleagues and I came here for lunch on Friday. Spoiler alert this was not a good…read morevisit. First of all, the waitress that took our order had us tell her what the menu item number was for each of our orders. Which was fine, except she didn't seem to understand one of the numbers. Her English seemed limited - not the end of the world. When I physically looked at the tablet, I corrected what almost became a mistake, and then she proceeded to walk off without taking our menus. All the prices have increased since the last time I came, which is not abnormal, but something to keep in mind. The food itself was fine. We ordered curry chicken laksa, a mee goreng, and a roti canai. The laksa was good, but my colleague mentioned her mee goreng had very little protein in it. So when it came time to pay, our waitress just brought the tablet and asked if we were paying together or separate. I proceeded to take out my credit card, and given this is yet another Chowbus establishment, the POS system started gratuity at 18%. There was nothing about our service that garnered 18%. I don't even recall our waters getting refilled. I didn't want to bother pressing the custom button to have to do mental math while the server waited so I begrudgingly selected the 18%. And I already know Chowbus calculates tip AFTER tax, which is another annoyance. Here's the kicker. After I received my receipt via text, I then realized there was a 3% credit card fee. At no point did our server mention this. And as I was going over the receipt, I also found out that the credit card fee was calculated based on the subtotal, tip and tax. This setup felt very predatory and not transparent. Their math and the lack of effective communication has ensured I will not be returning. A little honesty would go a long way.

My mother and I had the pleasure of enjoying two delectable meals at True Food Kitchen today (Aug…read more 1, 2026). I ordered the vegan double cheeseburger with a kale side salad (minus the parmesan). My mother ordered vegan blueberry pancakes with a blueberry compote (minus the greek yogurt) and a side of sweet potato and onion mash. Omar, our waiter, took such great care of us. He anticipated our needs and knew the menu very well. He even knew how the food was prepared. He truly elevated our experience. This was not our first visit to True Food. We have had great food and great service each time. The staff is always excellent. We will be back!

I ordered the Jambalaya Pasta and it looked nothing like the photos online. The noodles were different, the texture was off, and instead of being a saucy pasta, it came out more like a soup. I ended up swapping it for the pepperoni pizza, which was better, but still nothing memorable. Unfortunately, I didn't take any pictures of the food I received to reflect. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is beautiful and the environment was great, but the food just didn't deliver for me and I wouldn't come back. Try at your own discretion

It's the perfect spot to order something to-go (the dine-in experience is also fine!). When you order to-go, they make sure to pack the sauce separately so that nothing gets soggy, which is very thoughtful. The BBQ sauce fatty beef enoki chow fun is my absolute favorite thing to get here. The sauce they use is soo good and addicting in it. The HK French toast is yummy too but I would definitely share it, as the condensed milk can get pretty sweet. The egg shrimp chow fun looked aesthetically pleasing but the flavor was a bit underwhelming compared to the BBQ sauce beef chow fun. The staff is very pleasant Cantonese ladies. I'm looking forward to trying the rest of the menu!

Our servers were attentive to our needs. Drinks were promptly refilled. The table was cleared often of empty plates leaving us more room for comfort. We had excellent service.

We will be back at a later date to enjoy our newly discovered gem.
