★★★★★ 5.0 Roberta Stallard · Mar 2026

New menu item drop!!! Sweet & sour chick'n rice plate! Tastes just like home made with fresh cooked vegetables and toasted cashews! Comes with 2 sides. I chose lotus root salad and seaweed salad. There are 2 more new full meal rice dishes which I haven't tried yet, but look amazing, as well as their usual blended cultural menu. My husband still can't come here without getting his favorite pesto grill sandwich.

The chocolate vegan cake was delicious! Wouldn’t have guessed it’s vegan. Very light and fluffy. The “fish” sandwich was light and had good flavor, a few more fish pieces would have been good. The smoothie was fresh and creamy and the kumquat drink was goood and not too sweet. I’d come back for sure , it’s a nice cozy spot with seating inside and out. Fresh made vegan food

This unassuming place has some of the best avocado rolls I’ve ever had. I’m now craving them and will have to go back even though I live in Oakland 😅 I also loved the “phish” sandwich with vegan tartar sauce. Some of my friends got really creative boba drinks that were delicious as well.

Underrated place. Tried the patty melt sandwich here was an absolute banger. The taste and texture both were on point. The portion size was just perfect - left me satiated without feeling like I overate. Prices were great too! Definitely recommend the place.

This tomato pasta with meatballs, I order it every single time I come here, because it tastes so darn good! This restaurant quite frankly doesn't get the attention it deserves. The menu items are cooked in a very original way and the explosion of flavors are surprising to come from such simple dishes. You can tell that they are cooked with love. I highly recommend this little vegan gem in San Jose.
