Being a staunch consumer of non veg products, I was a little skeptical going here. On entering the restaurant I was taken aback by the beautiful ambience and decor of the place. I thought the decor would make up for a pure veg meal that seemed at the time slightly petrifying. But I must say all the products especially the... More

This is a beautiful restaurant, feels as if you have fallen into the Arabian nights, even the food and the waiters are exotically presented. The food was delicious, the waiter friendly and helpful, overall a wonderful experience. Go there even if you aren't a vegetarian, we loved it. Not very expensive either. Would have been a bit hard to find... More

The most extravagant and illustriously presented vegetarian food. period. Really excellent service and some very creative food but the presentation and restaurant itself are something else. well worth a visit.

The Pure Lotus is a great place to go if you are looking for high quality vegan food (hard to come by in Beijing). In addition, the decor and ambiance are unique -- as others have said going to Pure Lotus is as much for the experience as it is for the food. It is also easy to find, located... More

This isn't just a restaurant, it's an experience. It's a bit over done, but a lot of fun and totally worth it.

Looking for a vegetarian restaurant on internet we found the Pure Lotus restaurant and figured out how to come there. It's stange located at a parking place in a business district. Although it's a modern concrete building they tried to give it some atmosphere. However many other restaurants in the city are far more cosy. The hell begins with the... More

I visited the Pure Lotus near Tuanjiehu and was awed by the beauty of the place. We were first greeted by the staff with a lotus flower for each of us, followed by a sprinkle of rose water. Decor is really beautiful, albeit a little strange for a vegetarian place run by monks. Food was tasty and creatively made and... More
