We finally dined in at Zhu Vegan after years of wanting to come here.. tucked on a busy street with limited parking (unless you are lucky) on the street.. we went in for lunch and the ambience was decent nothing great or bad.. there was only server at the time and she did her best with whatever communication she could muster. We ordered a dumpling, soup and entree.. the waitress could have warned us prior to ordering the entree that it comes with an optional soup ($3 extra).. the food was decent .. nothing exceptional.. I personally preferred a bit more flavor .. overall a decent place to dine for vegans.. the lemon grass hot and sour soup was great, dumplings average, tofu delight was bland and mushroom seitan was decent Read less

I normally love this place, but tonight my Autumn Roll had what appears to be plastic inside it! I bit into it, but couldn't bite through. When I examined the roll, I pulled a large amount of what feels and tastes.like plastic (as seen in the picture). It is possible that this is dehydrated, uncooked soybean paper, but it made eating the roll unsafe. Honestly, I lost my appetite and I'm not sure I'll be able to come back to this place again. In general I have had great food at this place, but tonight was so horrifying that I am nauseous. Read less

The $12 lunch special with vegetables, brown rice, miso soup, and soybean sauce was delicious and beautiful (foto).

Where do I start, great vegan food or a really really rude server. The owner is pretty nice and patient, but the young woman who works with her is too rude. She left our table in a middle of the conversation. I had ordered a soup and an entree without being aware that the entree for lunch comes with a soup. I asked if I can cancel the soup that I ordered, but she was too rude and left the table. Apart from that, the food is really good. A budding vegan restaurant, and I would not like for it have such bad reputation. It is too rare to find a good vegan Chinese restaurant like this. Get eggplant kung pao and mushroom seitan. Their seitan tastes really good. Read less

I have been a vegetarian for 3 years me and my family feel so lucky to meet this vegan restaurant. Best sweet potato fries ever-crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. Autumn rolls served with the spicy sauce are tasty. LOVE the fried noodles / Udon - especially the smoky, savory flavors and aromas of stir-fry. Sesame tofu is amazing with an amazing sauce Can munch on forever! It tastes a little bit like the orange chicken but is more delicious. Ingredients are fresh. Quick service. Can't wait to order again and check out other dishes! Highly recommend to non- vegetarian/vegan friends as well! Read less
