This place has great vibes and DELICIOUS FOOD. Got the spring rolls, bbq seitan, and general tsaos soy portion. Tastes so authentic, quick and prompt service. Will be going every time I'm in the arena read more

Pan Asian restaurant made for the vegetarian or vegan consumer. Good food with considerable variety. Keep in mind that some dishes may be fried or quite oily which may not appeal to the heart or waist conscious customer. Nice and spacious environment. My major complaint is the poor parking. Be prepared to park a few blocks away, especially at a busy time. read more

Great ambiance, ok food. The server got my order wrong, but that wasn't a huge deal. The stir-fry soba ($10) was pretty good but a bit greasy. Their asian-fusion menu had many options, which is always a joy for vegetarian fare, and the prices were pretty reasonable. Service could be improved for sure. read more

Let me start off by saying...I am not generally a fan of vegan food. But I absolutely LOVE Veggie Fun! The location is great, it's so close to PPAC and JWU. The restaurant itself is clean, and the staff are always friendly. My favorite dish is are the Udon noodles, and if you get the lunch special, it comes with a spring roll and/or soup, all of which is delicious. This is by far my favorite Asian restaurant in Providence! read more

Went here for dinner the other night with family and all of us really enjoyed the experience. For appetizers we got the steamed vegetable dumplings, spring rolls and a lemongrass soup (certainly spicy). The General Tso's, steamed vegetables, orange seitan and kung pao eggplant were also excellent. read more

Yay, finally somewhere I will actually eat again in Providence instead of the endless parade of 'ethnic' food catered to ravenous college students with underdeveloped palates. I shared the veggie dumplings, orange seitan, mango something, and udon soup with friends, and they were all good, with the exception of the mango, which is not my thang. I couldn't even finish my food, and although hwp, I can eat a lot. The server was friendly but a bit slow, and it's a bit tedious to have to ask for chili or soy sauce. Also, the back of our bench moved, so I kept getting annoyed by the people behind us who were apparently doing pilates or something, but i told myself, grrl chill out. Since it's pan-Asian, there are lots of different regional cuisines to sample (Malaysia, Singapore, China, Japan, Thailand etc). I will definitely return to munch some of their other (non-mango, blech) offerings! Also, $8 lunch special is a great deal. read more

This is a great find in the area and I can't believe that I just ate here for the first time. The food is very tasty and the restaurant seems classy. We had the orange and general tsao's flavors of seitan, as well as spring rolls. Everything was great. The miso soup that came with the main courses was really nice as well. read more

Yum yum yum! 1st time there Sunday, food was AWESOME! Service and atmosphere were great too!!! Went there with a meat eater she loved it too! Can't wait to go back read more

The best restaurant around!! Ive never had a plate that I didn't like here. This place is amazing!!! Even my 4 year old enjoys this restaurant. read more

Veggie Fun - Sweet and sour - Vegan Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

See all

My best friend and I went here for an early dinner around 5 very slow at this time. She is a vegetarian so it was great to have a place with so many options. Alcohol Drink menu was very tempting but I ended up getting a mango iced tea. Color was a vibrant orange yellow. But it didn't taste as juicy as it looked. We decided to share 2 entrees, the stir fry udon noodles and basil soy protein. Both were really good, great flavors. We enjoyed our food but did feel a little rushed out which I didn't appreciate. we were doing a lot of talking and took our time because it was slow. Womp would of given more stars but since I enjoyed the food I'll be back. read more

Meh. Tea was amazing though. Love the jazz music. I ordered the curry lunch special. Tasted nothing like curry . Was sweet . Not for me. I live in Hawaii and eat curry all the time. This was not curry . Nice ambiance though read more

Veggie Fun - What a cool mug. Great Egyptian mint tea - Vegan Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

Had a great meal here. Really loved the General Tso's. The dumplings & simosas were great apps.

my boyfriend and i had spent the greater part of a day wandering the RISD Museum and when we were done, we were huuungry. a quick google search led us to Veggie Fun, a no-brainer based on their byline, "Pan-Asian Vegan Kosher Restaurant". we arrived around 4:00 on a monday afternoon and the place was very quiet. the waitress had to come back a couple times before we could decide on what to order. everything looked too amazing to try! we decided on an appetizer of samosas to split. what came were 6 beautiful little golden pockets filled with a sweet mixture, heavy on the taste of sweet potato and tamarind. they came with a little side of a creamy mint sauce. a really delicious pairing. i got the Hot and Spicy Noodle Soup as an entree. i had asked to keep it on the mild side, because it was listed as spicy, but i wish i had just gone for the menu version. i ended up adding some red pepper flakes for a little extra heat. the broth had a wonderful savory/sweetness to it. the combination of ingredients was perfect: kale, bamboo shoots, pickles, black fungus, and sweet potato noodles. there seemed to be an addition of enoki mushrooms as well. the noodles were sweet potato (glass) noodles. the portion was quite big and filling. my boyfriend got the Kung Pao. it was a gorgeous plate of jeweled vegetables and the flavors lived up to their looks! for dessert, we split an order of banana spring rolls with chocolate soy ice cream. i didn't think i'd be able to have another bite of food after dinner, but once the spring rolls came to the table, i couldn't resist. they were decadent! in conclusion, we had a fantastic experience at Veggie Fun. the food was amazing, the service was very fast. the ambience of the restaurant was very comfortable. the portions were more than expected considering the bill, which was very reasonable. i would highly recommend a meal at Veggie Fun to ANYONE visiting Providence. read more

Amazing amazing amazing! Always quick, tastes great quality, and seasoned perfectly. I've never been to a vegetarian place that was this good! The staff are super polite and so easy to order online or through Yelp. I've had them deliver to my work and it was super fast. read more

Veggie Fun - General Tso's, and BBQ Seitan. Amazing! - Vegan Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

The sesame tofu here is to die for! Awesome, healthy, vegan meals that don't leave you feeling weighed down or full of junk. Hits the spot every time. read more

Pretty good food. They really need to change the annoying new age piano music playing through the speakers. Felt like I was in an elevator. Couldn't wait to get out of there. read more

I am visiting Providence. I asked the hotel desk for a vegetarian restaurant. They pointed me to Veggie Fun. I walked 3 blocks and I got A GREAT VEGAN MEAL. What a luxury! I had the spicy orange seitan, Ginger salad, ginger ale and chocolate cake. $25 total makes it not cheap. But it was an unusually great vegan meal. The atmosphere was nice and the service more than friendly. I feel really lucky to have found the place. Makes me all the more happy to be in Providence. read more

I was really craving Asian food so decided to try Veggie Fun. The restaurant has a distinct Asian atmosphere and follows it up with bold flavors. I started off with the pan fried dumplings and devoured them. The salad was mostly iceberg but I decided not to cut a star as I experienced this at the hotel where I stayed, and guessed it is a local cultural thing. My main course was so good I ate it before snapping a picture! I tried a house brewed herbal chai which was very light and delicious. If you are vegan you will indeed be happy! read more

This is my favorite restaurant in downtown. Excellent service. Everything on their menu is so good. The taste, preparation and food texture is perfect. Portions are good for the price. I highly recommend general tso soy protein and kimchi stir fried noodles. Their rice and coconut milk pudding is simply amazing. read more

The udon noodles will space you out - spicy, sweet, and plate licking sauce delicious! Also had angel hair noodles and wonderful fried dumplings which were tasty and light. Then the pineapple fried rice which was warm and sweet and wonderfully filling. Staff are very friendly and had great recommendations of what to choose - love high quality vegan places like this read more

Bottom line: Great food, but mediocre service. Our family (4) sought out Veggie Fun for a pre-theater dinner on a recent weeknight. Surprised to find it was "Pan-Asian" as the name didn't indicate, and were concerned because one family member is allergic to soy and sesame. However, we found enough on the menu that he could eat to be happy. Food - Scallion pancakes and fried veggie Peking raviolis were perfect appetizers. Mushroom Seitan entree was very tasty, but sauce a little glue-like. Pad thai was surprisingly spicy but really great. Boston Lettuce Wraps had good flavor, but came with iceburg leaves instead of Boston, which didn't wrap as well. Overall, food was very good and we would return to Veggie Fun for that. Service - This is where Veggie Fun fell down. Our server seemed very tentative and unsure. Veggie Fun serves family-style, but we had to ask for individual plates to put our servings on. Then we had to ask for chopsticks. When we had to leave to make the theater curtain, we had to give our payment to another server because ours had disappeared. Overall, Veggie Fun was very good and we would return. But I agree with another poster that their menu is too heavily focused on meat substitutes. When there are so many great (pan-Asian) things you can do with vegetables, why all the focus on tofu and seitan? read more

Yum! Love it, hard to find good food for vegetarians, but they have it!! I'd much rather order out though, the setting is a little fancy and they don't even give free refills on soda! read more

Amazing vegetarian Chinese food. The service was nice and the general tslo's dish was the highlight of our meal. It is slightly upscale and the portions are on the smaller side. Everything we ordered came with delicious sauces!! I will definitely be coming back soon! read more

Everything is great here! The food is very flavorful and always filling! It awesome as a vegetarian to be able to order anything off a menu! The service is always quick read more

This is the place to take your friend who is skeptical that a meal made just from veggies can actually have knockout flavor and be exciting to eat. The autumn rolls were spicy and hot and super flavorful. If your friend is afraid there won't be anything familiar to eat, the moo shu was as good or better than any Chinese restaurant (non Veggie Restaurant) moo shu I've ever had. Excellent first visit and I will be back. I was on the way home not looking forward to what there might be to eat there or on the way when I suddenly remembered I had the HappyCow app and looked up vegan restaurants as I drove through Providence. Wanted to put a review there too but for some reason I'm not able to get in. Have to look up my password when I get home. The ginger ale will be unfamiliar to your friend though, made with powerful fresh ginger and really excellent. Not like your typical ginger ale that you can just swallow in one big Chugalug. read more

The entree was pretty good, very sweet mango sauce over veggie meat. The potato soup was made with very old potatoes and then nearly raw celery and carrots with browned ends thrown in. Waiters and ambience were nice. read more

Sweet & Sour Sesame Soy Protein top-notch, with a good assortment of vegetables and delicious pineapple chunks added great flavor. Complementary miso soup perfectly flavored, not salty. Almost nutty, with a nice ratio of tofu and seaweed. Vegan Thai iced tea delicious and sweet. Comes in a tall glass that shows off its vibrant orange color. Nice atmosphere, like the inside of Chinese lantern mixed with a pub. Chairs incredibly comfortable and padded, classic wood/leather combo. Waitress very friendly, helpful, and accommodating read more

Why do people call this a VEGAN restaurant? All the vegans in the area call this the only vegan restaurant? IT IS NOT VEGAN ! Ate there again to see if things had improved. It was average but way overpriced for what you get. Spring rolls are the healthiest item on menu and ok tasting.there are too many fake meats made in china or korea here instead of fresh food. A restaurant that serves dairy in their food is not vegan and yet the local vegan groups seem to ignore this. Interesting. read more

This is simply the best restaurant in Providence. We eat here at least once a week (sometimes more). When we have new people in town this is the restaurant we chose. More than not our friends are not vegetarian and they have enjoyed the food all the same. My biggest complaint with Providence is that restaurant scene (minus some of the italian food) could not compare to the Twin Cities, esp. around flavor. Not the case with Veggie fun where the food is filled with great flavors, many choices and is fresh. Not to mention the atmosphere, they create a big city feel in a small corner of Providence. Listing just a few of the items we enjoy the most. Appetizers Grilled Eggplant. - tender (no Italian restaurant compares to how well theses are prepared) Rolls - all 3 seasons are wonderful, the sampler is a favorite Salads We typically get Soy Protein Salad, Mango or Avocado Salads all three are fantastic. The top on the list Soy Protein Salad with that spectacular Peanut sauce. Main Course No one has been disappointed with anything. Two main dishes we get: General Tso's Soy Protein - favorite because it tastes so good, but fried so try to limit when I get. Tofu Delight - great flavors, fresh. Noodles and Rice Just started to order from here - WOW. Pad-Thai, Macro Bowl - amazing The place is amazing and the owners/staff are so kind. read more

Never had a bad experience, been here plenty of times. General Tso's tofu is amazing couldn't even tell it was all vegan. Miso soup is amazing every appetizer I've had amazing. Try their homemade ginger ale it's great! No complaints. read more

Amazing food! My fiancé and I have tried just about everything on the menu and there is nothing we don't love! As vegetarians it's hard to find quality restaurants that are vegetarian friendly. This place is the best I highly recommend it read more

never forgetti the veggie veggie fun offers a great selection of healthy vegetarian options. I will never forgetti my first sip of the udon noodle soup...the miso soup was on point...a rarity here in providence. the curry samosas are also a delight, an enticing combination of flavor and texture however this restaurant is not for everyone. if you can't live without meat, then you probably shouldn't come here. never forgetti your veggies though never forgetti read more

Went there with guests, one of whom is extremely gluten-sensitive. They were thrilled at the selections available on the GF menu, and I, normally omnivore, was surprised and delighted with the dishes I tasted. Very friendly and personable service. Far better than I was expecting from a "health food" restaurant. Have been back several times, and never disappointed. read more

Best vegetarian food I've ever had. It was amazing. We had the dumplings kimchi and general tso. The service was fast and great. Very pleasant experience. read more

Just ordered takeout as I am working in the library next door. I was hangry as I placed my order, but twenty minutes later, I was eating delicious grilled eggplant with string beans in my office. I am not a vegetarian but I love fresh food and this place is as fresh as it gets. The eggplant is cooked perfectly, not bitter or overdone, and the string beans are snappy and green. The rice mixed in perfectly and the green salad with it was fresh and the dressing delicious. Overall, I recommend Veggie Fun and I will be ordering more from them I'm sure as the schoolyear goes on. read more

The General Tso's soy protein is better than actual chicken, and I love chicken! Perfectly done with fluffy brown rice and tasty Miso soup on the side. Will be going back every time I visit downtown! read more

I came here last year and had a great experience. This time around, it was a different story. I was in a party of 6 adults and 2 children. When we walked in, the young lady that was sitting people was not attentive to us at all. We were trying to all sit and eat together and you could noticeably tell that she was annoyed. Once we finally got our table she did not give us high chairs for the children. When I asked her for them she said she did not have any for us. After discussing with my family we just decided to leave because it seemed like we were an inconvenience to them and I told her we would not need the booster seat she gave us anymore and she replied "just leave it wherever you want". I think she was upset that the restaurant was busy and she didn't seem to have much help but maybe if we were treated a little better next time we would not have left. read more

I absolutely love it here. I enjoy the fact that I can order anything on their menu and never have to worry about a dish containing fish sauce or being fried in the same oil as meat. The waitstaff is very friendly, the restaurant is super cute and cozy and the location is convenient. Their faux meats are pretty fantastic and everything is seasoned just right. I think I have tried just about everything on their menu but must say some of my favorites are: Sweet-Citrus Soy Protein, Soy Skewers, Crispy Soy Nuggets, Bangcock Fried Rice with Pineapple and my absolute favorite that has become my "regular" dish is the Curry Veggie Noodle Soup. At last, an all vegan Asian restaurant close to home... all is good in the world. read more

I ordered the summer rolls and veggie fried rice. Both were good and fresh. I make similar dishes at home and am glad to have found the place! read more

My boyfriend took me to Veggie Fun for my past birthday, and the dinner couldn't have been better. First of all, I love the interior: there are beautiful hanging lights and chandeliers, giant wooden booths, and huge windows, its gorgeous. It was a chilly night so we both ordered tea - it may have just been normal tea bags but they were huge mugs, and even the mugs were adorable. Spring rolls are my favorite and my boyfriend was starving so we ordered the roll sampler. For $11 you get six rolls - two tiny spring rolls that are standard taste, two raw summer rolls with a delicious brown sauce, and two autumn rolls which are huge and deep fried, and come with a sauce which MAY have been sriracha. All in all that was pretty good, but my actual meal thrilled me more: I ordered pad thai, and my boyfriend got udon noodle soup. We were shocked at how huge the plates were, and for such a reasonable price. On top of that, the food was delicious. We ended up switching plates periodically, hoping to try everything. Despite being stuffed (even though we didn't even finish our whole meals!) We ordered the fried ice cream, figuring how often do we get to have VEGAN fried ice cream? That was of course delicious too, and plenty to share between the two of us. I'm vegan and my boyfriend's really open/into vegan food himself, but we didnt expect Veggie Fun to be so good for everyone. We plan on coming back with more people - vegan and nonvegans - and trying EVERYTHING. Such a good range of huge portions for such a good price. read more
