***Vegan and Non-Veg: Both are good here***…read more It's a good thing that the food is fairly customizable here ...e.g. The Cajun Chicken with customized salad. I added 2 types of Salad to the Cajun chicken - 1) Kale Salad (Kale, Pomegranate and Avocado dressing)..... AND; 2) Quinoa Salad (Quinoa, Brown rice, Roasted Pumpkin Seed, Dried Cranberries). With soooo many different ingredients mixed together, there is always a risk that you may not get any taste out of it.... but frankly it all tasted quite good! Among the hot dishes, the Kale Crab Rice was very tasty and had a generous amount of Crab meat.At just $108, this crab dish seems like a "steal" to me... coz normally I'd think Crab meat can really push the price of a dish up. This crab meat seemed to be fresh and was quite tasty. Wouldn't mind going for it again

Veg 6 in Causeway Bay was our most recent vegetarian / vegan restaurant exploration. Quite with the…read morelikes of a few others we've visited here, it had a lot of options, replete with dumplings, stir-fry, fried rice, noodles, tofu, and some Japanese rolls. The child had a bit of a meltdown as he was hungry and they were out of the mango rolls, but eventually made peace with rice noodles. We ordered dumplings that were dumped in a spicy, chilli oil dressing. They were excellent. Thin wrappers, subtly flavoured stuffings and a very feisty dressing. The roll was fried kale and veggies. We asked them to skip the eggs, and so that sauce topping was amiss here, but they tasted good, nevertheless, with a touch of wasabi and soy sauce. The stir-fry noodles were your usual, but that "pork" that it came with could perhaps be one of the best textured and tasting pieces of soy/gluten stuff I've had in a while. This was Saturday evening over a long weekend, and it was relieving to get a table without prior reservations at 19:30. More photos and details on my website - thevegetarianvoyager

Hong Kong, Central. November 2023…read more I've never had a elevated Chinese coursed vegetarian meal. I've come to find it's usually going to be something put together in an existing restaurant. To find Yuan was a pleasant and stunning surprise. This is a vegetarian, allium-free, soy focused meal. Eggs and dairy are used on occasion but the meal can be vegan with advance notice. The food is filling without being excessive. The flavors are surprisingly diverse and I did not ever feel the need for some seafood or meat - although if some was added it would fit perfectly in the presentation. The meal starts off hard and fast. A trio of warm pecans, soy braised fennel, and wasabi cashews is presented before the start of the meal and refills are offered throughout the meal. Then, the meal starts with a welcome drink and one part of an amuse duo. A pair of appetizers follows and you are starting to realize this is a lot more dishes than simply 12 courses. The starts fast w a severe range of textures and flavors. The flavors become muted as the pace slows, then a showstopper soup sets up another wave of stunning dishes. Finally, a duo of desserts. Another showstopper finish of Japanese, Chinese, and English sweet flavors in a grid of 9. Very new to the scene and a wonderful introduction to how good a Chinese vegetarian tasting menu can be in the hands of talented veteran cooks.

A prior review stated that this establishment would make Buddha proud and I would agree. Raw, Vegan, Gluten Free, Buddhist Friendly and Nut Free...all menu items are listed and marked as such. We were walk-ins around 9:30PM on a Monday and I think it was busy because it had just opened. There was maybe 10 minute wait. Ambiance is nice....cement floors, inviting little bar, tall ceilings, mismatched chairs (although the chairs are shorter than the bench on the opposite side of the dining table, so you are not at eye level with your meal companion....just an observation), good lighting, white walls, light wood finishes....the place feels inviting. Staff was friendly, food was delivered quickly. My biggest observation and maybe the leading factor for my 4 Star rating were the flavors. Every item we ordered was super flavorful. Tempah, lemongrass, roti canai, white truffle oils, flax dukkah, the list could go on....every menu item is a study in world spices and flavors. It comes through in every dish. Vegan, prepared clean and flavorful. Although with a kick and what my husband liked the least, the Mushroom Tempah Rendang was my personal favorite, but let me also note that the linguine noodles were super fresh. I saw wine, but not sure of their liquor license status. Wine for sure, not sure on the other adult beverages. The staff indicated that they do serve breakfast and lunch too and I also saw a fresh cold pressed juices and smoothies menu as well. It is a bit pricey, but I think you get what you pay for. This is again vegan, prepared clean and flavorful...worth the price to me personally. If vegan is not your thing, you will most likely feel this place is expensive. For one appetizer and two entrees (no drinks, just water), it was $452HKD (10% service fee is automatically added to the bill as well). My husband states and let me quote, "This is a girl restaurant. The only reason a guy is here is because he was tricked by the girl into coming here. This is a place that a girl would come because it is super healthy and full of raw/vegan stuff. The few guys I see here are saying to themselves, I was tricked." I suppose this is why I liked it and he did not like it so much...and there were more woman here than men! HA! HA! HA!, so maybe he is right! So I will definatley go back, but it will probably be by myself or with a group of girlfriends or my one Vegan male friend.

We made a reservation for 6 pm and were told we would need to finish by 7:30. We arrived and were seated immediately. The interior was very quaint with a few tables on the main floor and some bar seating upstairs. There is one male and one female toilet (change table inside) with 2 sinks outside them. The dinner menu was amazing....so many choices and I was thrilled to find not too much tofu. We started with popcorn chicken, which was gf and made of mushrooms. Crispy outside, chewy inside and delicious! Then we had the dragon roll sushi made with cauliflower rice. It was very good as well. The pieces were quite huge so you could not eat it in one bite. Some people used a knife and fork and others chose to hold it in hand and take bites. Then we had the mushroom gnocchi which had me so excited. It tasted good when dipped in the white sauce, but I didn't really like the texture. I like gnocchi to be soft and kind of chewy but this was more grainy...I'm sure due to the ingredients. Still worth having. Service was quick and friendly and items came out quickly until we ordered dessert. Then I feel like we were forgotten. We ordered our dessert before the table beside us. But they were served and finished well before ours arrived (they had one same item). We ordered the profiteroles with vegan ice cream. We had to choose one of 3 flavours for all 3 profiteroles vs one flavour for each. We chose the cherry fudge which was very good. Other flavours were strawberry and green tea. The crust part was quite hard since it was gf, but yummy. The wait was a little annoying since we were told we had to be done by a certain time. This did not allow us to order more if we wanted. The price was $880HK for our meal,
