The exterior architecture is stunningly authentic, channeling a traditional aesthetic complete with a beautiful outdoor fish pond (no, you cannot order them for dinner, though don't quote me on that because I didn't actually ask). Upon stepping inside, you are greeted by an inviting, ornately decorated space. It feels a bit vintage and dated in the best way possible, offering a unique character that modern, cookie-cutter spots just can't replicate. We were seated promptly at a table adorned with actual fresh-cut flowers--a beautiful detail that immediately separates this venue from places utilizing tacky plastic alternatives.The service here is absolutely impeccable. The server, the manager, and the support staff operate as a highly attentive, deeply friendly team. We began with appetizers: a simple vegetable roll for my girlfriend which she declared was absolutely amazing, and the boneless spare ribs for me. While boneless ribs are an absolute staple on any Chinese takeout menu, I have never had a local version execution this elite; they were perfectly lean, deeply flavorful, and entirely free of the typical fat pockets you usually find elsewhere. For the main course, my girlfriend (who doesn't eat meat) ordered the tofu and mixed vegetables blanketed in a rich brown sauce with a side of brown rice. She rated it as one of the best variations she has ever encountered, noting that the kitchen's flavor balance was so dialed-in that it required zero corrections from additional soy sauce, salt, or pepper. I opted for the General Tso's Triple Fragrance, featuring a massive, premium protein trifecta of chicken, beef, and shrimp tossed with fresh vegetables and brown rice. It was extraordinary. Hunan Taste simply does not belong in the same conversation as your standard neighborhood joint; it operates entirely in a class of its own. We will absolutely be back, and it definitely won't take another five years.

First I'd like to say how friendly everyone was from the moment you walk through the door. I'm still shocked at how quick the service was. They were on it. As a vegetarian I'm aware I may eat boring things but I still like them to taste good. I got the mixed veggies in brown sauce. It was flavored so well it needed nothing. I also got a spring roll which was great. My boyfriend started with the boneless ribs which he said were the best he has had. That says a lot since he is picky. He also said the same about his General Tso's Triple Fragrance . Nice sized portions as well. You will leave satisfied The food, service and ambiance lived up to the recommendations.

Last week I was in the area and decided to give them another shot with some basics. I needed dinner and leftovers for lunch for the next day so I decided to get two egg rolls (pork), fried dumplings, chicken and broccoli and roast pork fried rice. I remembered not liking the egg rolls last time, but these tasted much better and they weren't oil/greasy, however, they could use a little more pork. The dumplings were actually pretty good, taste was there, but they were a little thick...I know this can vary in a place based on who makes them so I won't beat them up for this. The chicken and broccoli and fried rice were fine...didn't 'wow' me, but they wouldn't keep me from coming back either. Overall I think this place was good, but it won't become my 'go-to' Chinese food.

Chinese cuisine is an absolute bounty in terms of vegetarian dishes. Chinese food is among the…read morerichest in the world in terms of the usage and variety of vegetables and mushrooms. And there are endless types and ways to cook tofu, which has been a staple for many centuries. Seasonings, including fragrant aromatics, tantalizing spices, and sauces, make veggie dishes even tastier than most meat dishes. Located on Bloomfield Avenue in Denville, we decided on dinner at Veggie Heaven yesterday. I easily made a reservation by calling the restaurant. Upon arrival as first-timers, my partner, his family, and I were greeted by the staff inside, evoking a cozy and casual atmosphere perfect for a relaxed meal that still feels special. Their huge menu features a wonderful selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes inspired by Asian cuisine. For starters, we decided on Cucumber Roll, Avocado Roll, Sweet Potato Roll, and Roast Chicken Roll for sharing. As a main meal, we opted for Crispy Chicken Cutler Supreme, Veggie Smoked Salmon, Fried Tofu with Broccoli, and Veggie Smoked Duck. Every dish was packed with flavor and beautifully prepared. One would never guess it's entirely plant-based. It's such a gem, especially for anyone who's vegan, vegetarian, or just looking to try something a little different. The prices were incredibly fair considering the amount of food one gets. The staff were eager to answer questions and make recommendations. This establishment truly lives up to its name.

My vegetarian friend was in the area and says she loves visiting this place whenever she's here…read more I'm a carnivore, but friends are more important than food, so - my first veggie experience! With that in mind I want to be careful how I review the food. The place is nice and quiet, including the servers. The menu is rather expansive like a diner, and it can be a bit confusing because it sometimes says "veggie beef" (or chicken, pork) and sometimes just says "beef" and you have to interpret the missing word "veggie". Since I didn't want any of that, I was able to pick out what I wanted quickly, but my friend took awhile. I liked the spring rolls. Liked, not loved - I've had better; the interior was bland here. And the sauce wasn't announced, but a nice bonus for dipping. The vegetable fried rice, I don't know. The sauce was a bit gluey, instead of making the rice a bit crunchy like fried rice ought to be. The veggies were not done enough so they weren't crunchy but also weren't soft. The broccoli should have been chopped into smaller pieces, but also, it should have been mushrooms like the menu said. I was not pleased with the unannounced substitution - a five star restaurant would be open about that. (I was also expecting baby corn, but the menu did say "corn" when I checked back, so that's on me.) I'd love to round up to 4 instead of down to 3, but in the end, if my friend invites me back next time she's in the area, I'd pass and suggest a different spot. I know it's not easy to craft a vegetarian restaurant and I respect what they've been able to do here, but I think they can do better without introducing meat products. Especially on matching the menu with what you're given.
