★★★★☆ 4.0 Vineeth Kumar Murali · Apr 2025

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

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!

This restaurant totally hit the spot for lunch today. The vibe was warm and inviting, and the lemongrass soup was a total game-changer. The broth was so flavorful and refreshing, with hints of ginger and spice that really kicked things up a notch.

I haven’t left a review in years but after eating at Zhu Vegan I had to. I saw the fried ice cream and had to come but this place but everything we ordered far exceeded our expectations. The orange seitan, mango soy protein, scallion pancakes, and soy nuggets were all fantastic. Everything was fresh and perfectly fried. Honestly can’t wait to come back to try more things, and it’s not pricey either. My fiancé and I both got appetizers, entrees, drinks, and deserts. Their ice cream is probably the best vegan ice cream we’ve ever had. For context my fiancé has been vegan 9 years and I’ve been off and on the past few years.

It's wonderful to have this restaurant nearby as a vegetarian. We had the Singapore noodles, soy cutlet sizzler, and tofu delight. Everything was delicious. Will be returning!
