    I dont go vegetarian often, but this place is a must try. A must try for vegetarian lover!…read more We only got a few items, but everything was delicious! The chicken nuggets were fantastic. I could munch on it all day lol Fresh steamed broccoli was good. I didn't think I would enjoy eating steamed brocs with just soy sauce. A little softer would be nice, but still good. The veg fish was an all time favorite. When I do happen to go to a vegetarian restaurant, I would order it (if available). We all loved the sauce in the fish. Even if you don't like the fish, mixing the sauce with rice would be good. Corn soup was a nice start. The corns could be a bit better, but would order it again. The almond pastry was yummy. We all liked the pastry on top more than the almond milk. It was a bit plain. Will definitely return when craving veg foods.

    Great option for vegetarians! Surprised to find this restaurant so busy on a Saturday afternoon…read morearound 1:30pm. Noted that they had several large tables, more so than smaller tables. Ideal for bigger groups. There were only 3 of us but we ended up at a large table as that was the only table available. We got the crispy chicken with basil, fish with brown sauce and sizzling tofu. I enjoyed the tofu the best then the crispy chicken. The fish I think had five spice seasoning and seaweed (nori) to give it that fish flavor. I enjoyed the sauce on the fish but the flavor of the fish itself was just ok to me. The service was friendly and the food came out fast. Would go back again to try some of their other dishes.

    A friend was visiting from out of state and is vegetarian, I have heard of this place from family,…read morebut was excited to try their dishes. We came with a group on a saturday and they were able to seat us immediately - plenty of parking in the large plaza where the Hat and Shiki Buffet is (previously hometown buffet location). All of the items on the menu were intriguing, but I was eyeballin' the salt and pepper one and the fried tofu. My buddy got the lemongrass "chicken" and also the curry with bread. Since we were eager to try the different types of food, we did a family style and that was the best decision. We also got eggplant, and the rice cake/egg. I thought the rice cake looked underwhelming, but our entire group had a consensus and voted that as the top fave of the night. Everything was super tasty and we left happy and full and with leftovers! Super excited to return and to recommend to others. I look forward to come back to try some of the other items such as the "beef" noodle soup or the bun rieu or pho! I also appreciate that some of the dishes came with rice included -we actually ended up with too much rice, but perfect for leftovers the next day. Upon checking out, there was delicious thing by the cash register that was green and resembled a bundt cake in slices. It was labled mochi pandan, and it was AMAZING. so spongy, so delicious and a little sweet. Perfect end of the night that my buddy got one to go right after. It was made fresh and you can tell by how soft it was. I appreciate that this restaurant has vegetarian versions of common vietnamese and chinese dishes. They all were delicious and unique and did not feel too oily or heavy. They look and taste like meat and also the sauces were 100% on point. Thank you Happy Buddha!!

    Had an early lunch on a Sunday here…read more The menu is vegetarian, however most dishes can be made vegan except for those like the egg noodles, or egg soup. We order a mix of items and shared. We enjoyed all of them. I was especially happy they had a non-dairy milk for Thai tea - and it was yummy! They served us a surprise dessert of a sweet mung bean soup like dish - that was a nice treat and unexpected.

    4/5 solid vegetarian spot, for when you want something light but tasty:…read more My family and I wanted something warm but light for dinner, so we landed on vegetarian Vietnamese food. We've had a couple veggie Viet places nearby, but hadn't tried this one just yet, so we stopped by on a Sunday night. When we pulled up, it was still rather empty, but we must have started the dinner rush because within 30 minutes the restaurant was packed! We picked two veggie noodle soups, which we came here for, but they ironically were everyone's least favorite dishes. Our top two dishes were the spring rolls and the cold noodles. Even so, everything was both light but flavorful, so mission accomplished! It's always pretty difficult to find a restaurant to suit the palate of my family, and no one walked away complaining, so I'll call this a win! Ultimately it's a place I'd come back if I were nearby but I probably wouldn't drive out for. Everything else: The interior is clean, pretty bare, and very much has the mom and pop store feel. It's nestled in a plaza with Asian architectural aesthetics, and shares the same lot as some other restaurants, a dance studio, and a Japanese goods store. There's a lot of spacious parking, so I imagine you won't have too much trouble making it there.

I would have preferred for it to have some kind of spice that lacked too. The drumsticks were the main item I visited for and they were good; however, they were on dowels vs. sugar cane... just a different vibe, not a deal breaker. Two issues with my visit here: 1. asked for a sweet chili sauce, but it has no chili in it, just a sugary sauce AND when I got my bill I was charged extra for the sauce but no mention of this when I ordered it. I have no issue paying for extra sauces 1. If the sauce is worth a hoot and 2. Awareness that I'm paying for it. Prices are a little high for the quality of food. The parking lot is a little undersized for the amount of businesses in the little strip mall area. One MAJOR complaint and issue 2. They claim the restroom is out of order (which I saw on previous reviewers posts, which was over 1 month ago)... idk how a business can operate without a restroom for customers. I get emergency situations, but how have they gone this long without a working restroom for customers? To make this situation even worse, it doesn't appear they have any neighboring businesses to partner with on this issue because if you need the restroom they tell you to go across the street to Trader Joe's. Next time I'm in the area, I'll just grab something from TJ's to eat and not worry about dining at My Vegan.

    I found my replacement!…read more My wife and I used to go to the true foods in Santa Monica all the time. We loved it. We love the food. The healthiness. And the deliciousness. Unfortunately, it closed down and we were in search of another location. This one is amazing! It's in the center of downtown Pasadena at the end of all the restaurants and stores. It's even more vibey here and more alive. My turkey burger was amazing and the salmon my wife got was stunningly delicious. So much that she licked the plate dry. Service is good (more of a social hang out spot but you'll have to wait a little for your food) And the ambiance is trendy. You can even see thec chefs preparing the food so you know it's healthy and good. Will come back! You should try it too!

I chose the pasta with the sausages hoping it was going to be spicy and it was, as you get closer to the bottom of your bowl. It was very filling. We sat outside, so it got chilly. I wish I had a sweater. They have indoor seating, but we got seated outside which was fine till it got cold. Service was good. The worst part was the parking. I should have looked for a cheaper spot instead of close to the restaurant. Oh well...

We ordered the spicy eggplant, fried mushroom in sweet and sour sauce, house special tofu and orange veggie chicken. Everything was good but we all agreed that the orange veggie chicken and the mushroom sweet and sour were our favorites. Both dishes had the right amount of sweetness and were balanced in its seasoning. The spicy eggplant wasn't spicy at all since they default to making it mild unless you say otherwise. The tofu dish was more like braised tofu in brown sauce but it didn't have any distinctive character. I think next time we will have to try a different tofu dish. The restaurant itself has more of a casual feel. It's not terribly huge so I can see how busy it could get on more popular celebratory days. For us at around 5:30 on a Saturday evening it was not too crowded. The service was very friendly and quick. They were very attentive to our needs and even boxed our left over for us. Free parking is available in the parking structure for the shopping plaza.

The ambiance strikes the perfect balance between modern and cozy, with a clean, relaxing atmosphere that makes you want to linger a little longer. Service is equally impressive -- the staff is attentive, welcoming, and genuinely hospitable without being overbearing. Overall, a standout experience from start to finish. Highly recommend if you're craving top-tier dumplings in a comfortable, well-run setting. They are great for takeout as I did for this nice rainy evening.

Parking looks like it…read morecould be a little rough at busy times, but we showed up a little after lunch and found street parking. We were seated right away. The place is clean and bright. No one was playing anything on their cell phone speakers, which is something that I will leave a restaurant for immediately now. I think restaurants should be mindful of the atmosphere for their guests. The menu was fairly broad, lots of choices of things that were vegetarian. But there was a real lack of dumplings, which the place is named for that didn't contain beef or pork. There was really only one chicken choice, and one veggie. We ordered the Dan Dan noodles which were really good, but the serving size was skimpy. We also ordered the chicken soup dumplings which were very good and the shrimp wontons also really good in a chili oil and soy sauce. The Szechuan spicy chicken was uninspired. Deep fried nuggets of chicken with some szechuan chili powder sprinkled on them. I wouldn't order it again. The scallion pancakes were also good, but were not served with any kind of sauce. Perhaps this is authentic, but I'm used to them having hoisin sauce on the side. Service was attentive and fast. Everything arrived quickly and was hot and well prepared. I would definitely return and try some new things.
