I am not one to write reviews on yelp and even less of a vegetarian, but so glad I stepped in here tonight. If you are looking for a light yet fulfilling meal that is not lacking in flavor then you need to give tofubox a try. I ordered the hot and spicy braised tofubox, it had three different sides of mushrooms, broccoli, cauliflower, delicious purple rice and little cubes of yam with the most interesting crunch. As someone who loves usually can not go a meal without meat, I am blown away at how genuinely satisfied I am with this vegetarian meal filled with flavor and texture. They also have seriously tasty tea eggs a la carte! So wonderfully surprised by this meal! read more

Holy crap the mapo tofu was incredible! It compares favorably to the mapo tofu at famous Sichuan restaurants ie. Chengdu Taste, which is the last place I had mapo tofu (the one in Alhambra, CA). I am blown away, to be quite frank. Go here. read more

This places is so freaking great. The food is delicious and is always delivered hot. The portions are generous and reasonably priced. Their service is so friendly, warm, and personal. Such a gem. I haven't stopped ordering since discovering this place a few months ago!!!! My favorites are the vegetable dumplings, the spring rolls which are soft and crispy at the same time - sorcery, the sesame tofu, the tofu boxes, the Xian chili oil noodles.... so many good things. Highly recommend! read more

yummy food and good service!!! definitely try them out. i think most people order takeout though because the interior is more casual

Goodness. That was amazing! I walked by this place a few times recently and was so excited! It wasn't until I remember tonight I needed to give it a try. Found it on yelp and started to create my own box. Then I looked at all the yummy stuff the boxes had and decided to go with the hot and spicy braised tofu box. BOY AM I HAPPY! They even put a sample of the flower shiitake in foil inside my bag and now I am MOST DEF going to get that next time. It's a lot of food but it tastes fresh and is worth the price. Delivery came quick and the food was nice and hot. The cubed taro and yams were so tasty too! I also ordered the tofu and mushroom soup because it was so cheap! It ended up being a regular soup container that other places charge you double the price for! Very yummy too. ORDER FROM HERE. read more

Ugh soooo good! My favorites are the crispy szechuan tofu and drunken seitan. Small family owned business with delicious vegetarian Chinese food. Also love the chili wontons. I'm not vegetarian but I LOVE this place, you don't miss the meat at all and it is not lacking in flavor at all. read more

I stumbled upon this place and wasnt going to try it until I saw spicy yuba on the menu, then I had to because that's something I love. The lady at the desk was kind and sweet and the food was great! I love the generous portion of vegetables and all of the little details like the fried mushroom and the radish and fries that came with box A. There were trumpet mushrooms too which are my favorite. The whole experience put a smile on my face :) read more

Tofubox - Spicy yuba box A6 - Vegetarian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

One of the best vegan restaurants I have been to. Love everything about tofubox. Very reasonable and great quality.

Honestly they are amazing. I'll leave it at that, Ive brought countless of people here and it's worth the price. I'm vegetarian and I approve 1000% Everyone who works there are so kind. read more

I say 5 for variety and very nice service. It's pretty mellow if you decide to dine in. Usually I'm not always a fan of sitting in places much but it's pretty relaxing. Vegans for sure hit a jackpot . I've tried 3 different dishes so far . Sesame chicken which is actually really good !! And friendly lady at cashier recommended Spicy Yuba ( I asked for what I should try next) ! I recommend over the Spicy Mapo Tofu. Mapo tofu flavor was great was not a fan of the tofu texture for that dish, ( wasn't firm more on the silky tofu side , but the Spicy Yuba was GREAT. I do plan on trying more dishes when I stop by but incase anyone was unsure what to get maybe that helps . They do have multiple options and I'm sure it being veganized for dishes you may of missed for traditional "non vegan dishes " you'll enjoy what they have to offer . Btw the sweet lemon / iced teas is tasty too! read more

I love this place - it is some of the best Chinese food I've ever had, vegetarian or otherwise, and the best vegetarian food I've had period. GL While the food is phenomenal (really) the location itself is clean and casual. Clearly it is focused on takeout but it is perfect for a week day lunch. I find myself eating here 2-3 times a week. The lunch boxes in particular provide excellent variety at a very affordable price ($10 for standard, $11 for deluxe sides) Personal favorite dishes are 1. B Lunchbox with Kung pap 2. Twice cooked tofu 3. Mushroom Hotpot All are very very flavorful and quite spicy without being excessively oily. Charle the manager and Wong the cool are also fantastic hosts and make us feel welcome every time we come by. I can't recommend this place strongly enough! read more

Incredible food options, good portions, quick service. And the prices are very reasonable. Love this place!

Got delivery here. Was shit on a shingle. Everything was mushy and bland. Sauce was like water or missing sauce. I can't understand how all these shifty places get such high reviews. Awful. read more

Can't wait to order from Tofubox again! It was so hard to decide what to order...everything on the menu sounded amazing. I got the Hot and Spicy Tofu Pot as my main course with the Chili Oil Wonton as a side. I love tofu but I know it can be hard to get used to...so if you're on the fence about getting a tofu dish, don't hesitate to try this Tofu Pot. The textures of the tofu are wonderful, and there is so much flavor in the broth. There is a good amount of vegetables and mushrooms in the dish as well, which was a really great surprise. The Chili Oil Wonton dish had a very nice spicy flavor in the sauce and the inside of the wonton was rich and delicious. Bonus: the amount of food is well worth the price, which is very reasonable for the quality. Delivery experience was great. Thank you to Tofubox for specifying which menu items are not vegan. Much appreciated! read more

The food is always good. Never disappointed. Always my go-to for a delicious Asian vegetarian meal

Damn this place is good! It's been easy eating vegetarian because of this spot. I love the chef's special dishes! My favorite is the crispy tofu in Szechuan sauce & Singapore noodles. Oh and don't forget the mapo tofu. Tastes better and more reasonably priced than the non vegetarian equivalent Birds of a Feather. read more

I have barely finished my meal and I'm already giving Tofubox 5 stars. For $10, their tofu boxes are unbeatable. The flavor of everything works so well, and I love that I have a mini portion of dessert with it too. I decided on the spicy braised tofu box and while the tofu is flavorful on its own, the "holy sh*t this is good" hits you once you mix in the side items. I believe the veggies are "seasonal" which means you could get something different between the times you order. Mine had bok choy and I'm not sure if they were mushrooms or something else but whatever it was, was my favorite item in my box. The portion is large enough to where you can have a little bit left over for later (unless you're like me and just can't stop because it's THAT good) I'm really looking forward to trying the rest of the tofu choices as well as the rest of the menu :) read more

Vegetarian... And so many choices! Generals box was delicious and satisfying! Steamed veggies just perfect, purple rice topped with marinated tufu, diakon radish, fried mushrooms and a skewer of mouthwatering veggie sausage seasoned amazingly what more can you want really. Fantastic food... Served with a warm smile. Will return.. read more

Tofubox - Generals box B - Vegetarian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This place is SPOT ON when it comes to vegan and vegetarian food! The protein has great texture and the vegetables are so flavorful! I'm not even vegan, but I come here all the time just because. Also, they are quick with their takeout orders and it's also affordable for what they offer. More people need to come here! read more

Not seasoned at all. If sauces are provided they are all full of sugar. Food comes in all plastic even if dine in so not environmentally friendly. Not my cup of tea. They are vegan so I will give them that but that's about all they have going for them read more

I love tofu! I ordered the cripsy tofu box #1 and the spring rolls. Nice healthy vegetarian options for a great price! More of a take-out spot, but there are tables available if you decide to eat it right then and there. I will be back to try more soon :) read more

Second time here. Both meals outstanding. Generous portions. Vegan Asian but with much less grease and more interesting and subtle flavors than competitors. They could command a much higher price for this quality food if the decor were fancier; instead it's a $10 meal in a small clean simple deli/cafeteria style setting. Attached picture is less than $30 of food-- great deal. Super nice couple own and run the place. Highly recommended. read more

Don't hesitate to try this spot just because it's new! I'm really glad I came here and was really impressed with my meal. I got the $10 box with General Tso's tofu. It was delicious--crunchy on the outside, light yet juicy on the inside. The sauce was sweet, but not too sweet, with enough at the bottom to dip your rice into. But it's not just about the tofu here. It came with three different kinds of mushrooms (each with their own sauces and seasonings), garlic broccoli, pickled radishes, yam and taro cubes drizzled with a bit of honey, and purple rice. A great variety of fresh, tasty vegetables for such a reasonable price! And to top it all off, the staff was really friendly and the ambiance was causal and bright. I will definitely be back! read more

I love this place and will give an in depth review soon, but please TOFUBOX! Switch back to the breaded, cubed tofu you used in the crispy szechuan tofu! This new version is not it. That old tofu I used to dream about, please read more

I rarely post on Yelp but wanted to give this restaurant a good review since it's new to the area: 1. The food was extremely affordable. 2. Love the concept of the food being super healthy. Best sides in my opinion were the tea eggs and the fried vegetarian pork. As you get older (like me), eating healthy becomes more important to you as you try to decide between restaurants. 3. The owners are an elderly Chinese couple that were really friendly and welcoming. They even came out and gave us some free samples to eat! 4. I was impressed by the breadth of food offerings they allow you to choose when it comes to making a custom Tofubox. You should give this place a shot. It always feels good supporting small businesses like this. Also major props to this couple for starting a business at their age. I definitely will be rooting for them to succeed! read more

Best food EVER and the best service! Everything tasted so fresh and the plant based proteins are so creative. Not oily & very filling :)

This spot in Brooklyn is so cute, the interior is colorful and there are beautiful pictures of their food displayed on their wall. I got the korean ssamjang braised tofu box while my boyfriend got the tofu box with general tso tofu. The purple rice was very hearty and not too grainy or sweet. The braised tofu was spicy and firm while the general Tso tofu was sweet and fluffy. The spicy sauce went well with the firm tofu and the spiciness of the tofu wasnt overbearing. My favorite part of the box was the crunchy taro and sweet yam in the form of cubes that was mixed in lettuce as well as the mushroom garlic sauce. The mushroom are fleshy and the thick garlic sauce is just as flavorful as the spicy sauce. read more

First off they give out some kind of free meal certain days which you have to applaud regardless of how the food tastes; it's good to feed our hungry brothers and sisters. Thankfully everything I have had has also been pretty phenomenal. Salty, brothy vegetarian goodness all the way through. Soup dumplings very good , perfect soup to dumpling ratio. Excellent use of spices across dishes. I'm coming for that burger next read more

It's difficult to come by a place that sells healthy and tasty food for an adorable price. I'm glad I found this spot! They let you customize your box for $9. The food came out hot, and tasted so fresh! The vegetables were crunchy, the flavors were bright and mild, and the combination of heated and unprocessed ingredients was delightful. I felt good eating it and it sat well in my stomach afterwards. I love that they want to help individuals who don't always have time to cook for themselves to still be able to eat nutritiously. Also, the owner and staff were welcoming and friendly. I will be back! read more

This place was great! I discovered this new spot recently, and was happy I finally got to try it. I tried the fried tofu combo box and was not disappointed. There is so much texture in the rest of the sides, the whole meal really comes together. I highly recommend this place for a nice, healthy casual dinner. read more

This place is AMAZING. Not only is it some of the best vegan food ive ever had, it's some of the best chinese food ive ever had. The portions are huge, and the food is fresh and delicious!!! Please show them support! read more

Delicious and criminally underpriced. The owner was a lovely, friendly man who clearly cared about his food. The food is delicious, fresh, and healthy. Just excellent. read more

Went there few weeks ago with my boyfriend. The place was small but very clean and comfortable , the owner couple were very friendly and we even chat a little bit. We both ordered the set box but don't remember which one (they got so many options). The food was really good and you can just tell they put a lot of efforts on it , most importantly is they are super AFFORDABLE and you can actually get full. I will definitely visit again and can't wait to try their new menu. If I can have just one wish would be that they can turn fully vegan. They only have like maybe 5 items on the menu aren't vegan so I think it wouldn't be that difficult. So more vegans will go - (egg/dairy production is no better than meat production and some vegans don't feel comfortable eating at a restaurant that also serves eggs/dairy). And non-vegans couldn't care less if they don't have egg or diary for just one meal. Even if I were to overlook eggs and dairy, I would hesitate to bring non-vegan friends over without worrying they will get a chance to order eggs or mayo. ( I often hangout with my friends who doesn't mind to eat vegan food for just one meal with me ) :) read more

Very high quality food at a downright steal of a price point. Liked it so much that I almost wish they'd raise the price a buck or two just to ensure they meet their overhead and stick around for the long run. My meal (pictures) was only about $10 and I could barely finish it all - I'll definitely be coming back and ordering delivery. The tofu dishes I had were killer, especially the Drunken Seitan, which blows away comparable dishes you'd get up the street at Loving Hut for a much higher price. Best of all, it's a family run small business so you can rest assured you're supporting good people. read more

Tofubox - Braised Tofu (good), Kung Pao Mock Chicken (amazing), Drunken Seitan (killer!!) on purple rice and veggies. A feast for only $9! - Vegetarian Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

it was very good. Best tofu I've had. C4 is really good, steam buns are great. Staff was very friendly.

Mindblowingly delicious. This is true homestyle vegetarian Chinese cooking, with incredible, delicate flavors, not too much salt or grease, and clearly cooked with love. I often feel like eating something both healthy and filling, and I'm happy that Tofubox is nearby to provide a tasty, fresh, and affordable option. The staff are friendly and pointed out some interesting specials on the board. You can tell that they care about their food, and I'm excited to return and try out more of their menu and daily specials. The restaurant is well-lit with some colorful chairs and tables if you decide to eat in. I made a custom box with braised tofu, a special of "drunken tofu" seitan (especially tasty), candied taro and yam (a fresher, lighter interpretation of a dish that can be very heavy at other Chinese restaurants - yum), a tea egg, and lots of veggies, all on purple rice. I was pleasantly surprised that they threw on a few seasonal veggies like daikon. Like everything else in the box, it was delicious! Really impressed. Can't wait to return. read more
