Krishna Narasimhan · 241 Google reviewsVeggie House — high-caliber chinese in Chinatown. A holdout in the best possible way. Staff knows what to recommend. Good for vegetarians, moves fast. Shashwat: "The spicy dumplings were the best bite that we had today with the Kung Pao “plant based chicken” being" [$$]

“i got the salt and pepper vegan shrimp bowl and it was insaneeeely good. tasted just like shrimp!! my bf got the orange tofu bowl and the sauce tasted very similar to orange chicken as well.”
“Very good food, quantity, service and staff. We loved every item we tried. This is heaven for vegan food at Chicago.”
“This place is fabulous!!!! If u are looking to be treated with great levels of respect, smiles galore by the male waiter, yummy pot of hot jasmine tea, & such delicious yum food, enough for two. I had the spicy dumplings, house fried rice (extra spicy), & the entre of broccoli, carrot, & plant based beef (it was a little too salty, but water was the cure once I got home!). Sooo thankful. Peaceful environment. I was the first customer, & others came, in total 3 of us. Sooo cozy. No rush, no anger. I was more than happy to give a tip!! I definitely recommend this place, & give 10 stars!! By the way, cut thru the plaza. U get there faster.”
“So good! The orange tofu is the best tofu I’ve ever had, and the Taiwan Noodle dish was delicious. Highly recommend!”
“I had the orange tofu appetizer, potstickers and side of rice. Everything was delicious!”
“The food that we got catered from veggie house was incredible. I have gone to veggie house and eaten at the restaurant many times. Every dish that I order is crafted exceptionally and tastes delicious. I appreciate that veggie house goes above and beyond in making sure they can meet every dietary restriction that guests may have. They made sure to work with me to ensure dishes could be vegan, gluten-free, or nut free if possible. The level of care that they take in food preparation and making sure the taste is impeccable is absolutely amazing. I also appreciated the amazing service and professionalism from everyone that I talked to and everyone who helped me get the food prepared. Thanks to veggie house I was able to cater food for more than 25 people and every person commented that they loved the food. I will be going back and highly recommend veggie house to everyone. Thank you!”
“It is nice to find a vegetarian/ vegan food spot in Chinatown!! Few items had eggs ( clearly marked in the menu) so that made it easy to select vegan options. Loved the orange tofu appetiser and dumpling soup!! The spicy dumpling appetiser and veggie spring rolls were great. Overall ambience is welcoming and family friendly. Must visit and 100 percent recommended to everyone looking for vegan options.”
“Lovely spot for Chinese vegetarian and vegan food. Delicious, well seasoned dishes with lots of variety and fresh veggies. Highly recommend for plant based eaters!”
“Solid spot, the Mongolian beef (soy based) and lions mane were extraordinary. Quick and polite service.”
“I highly recommend this place! I got the black pepper tofu and it was some of the best tofu I’ve had, crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. The sauce was so flavorful as well. I also got the veggie fried potstickers and those were very good too, although the tofu was the standout. The service was friendly and prompt.”
“While I don’t have dietary restrictions, I’m so glad for this spot and will gladly come back to this casual spot! There was a wide range of options, both centering veggies and centering plant-based “meat” dishes. There wasn’t a dish that I didn’t enjoy, but I would definitely recommend the braised mushrooms - they were a standout dish! Service was speedy and attentive. Highly recommend!”
