Reviews

This is a 5 star vegetarian find.
The restaurant is entered through an enclosure that looks like a big phone booth.
To access it, you go into the enclosure & down a steep flight of stairs.
Hold onto the handrail.
It was about 7pm & smelled of incense when we entered.
We were quickly greeted with menus, then a pot of hot tea, chopsticks & and small bowl of roasted peanuts were brought to the table.
The hostess answered any questions we had.
We decided on stewed eggplant clay pot and Korean Veg sliced fish with bean curd clay pot.
It was not clay pot like I enjoyed in Hunan with rice in bottom of pot.
We had to ask for white rice.
We had to ask if entire menu was vegetarian because it referred to meat dishes but we were assured that it was 100% vegetables.
$30.50 total for our 2 dinner meals, plus tip.
The only other table was done shortly after we arrived but a table of 8 came in before we left & we could see an amazing multi course meal being served.
The following day, I walked past it again & realized it was in basement of Buddhist Temple! No wonder we saw Buddhist Nun coming in & out of restaurant.
If you are looking for 100% vegetarian meal, try it.
It was clean with a simple decor.
They have a nice deal for lunch with entree, soup, rice for $8.50 from 11am-3:30pm.


Hidden gem! Literally hidden, from outside looks like a old phone booth, but once you get downstairs it’s very nice and clean! The food was absolutely amazing, plenty of seating and menu options for vegetarians!! The service was absolutely great, the food came out quickly and we all enjoyed it! I highly recommend this place!


Their dumplings are quite the delight.
I come here to take a break from the multitude of meat based dumplings. While there are many variants for tofu and the first few bits are good, there isn't sufficient variety in a dish to want to clean the plate.
