The atmosphere is nothing to get excited about, but it was fine. Not a reason to come to the restaurant. The food was worth the trip! We had veggie egg rolls for an appetizer. They were flavorful and much less greasy than most places. We also order the Szechuan green beans as an appetizer. They were excellent. Great flavor and... More

Unexpected treasure. Awesome menu for vegetarians/vegans and carnivores alike. It was refreshing to find a place that would make any of the menu items with mock meats. Great flavor!

Great food you won't find anywhere else. Service is a little slow but that's because they are making your dishes for you fresh. atmosphere is not fancy but unusual and fun.

This is our favorite restaurant on Eat Street. They serve authentic Taiwanese food. We particularly love the Pork Chop with meat sauce over rice and the Beijing style soy bean paste noodle. They also have a good selection of cold appetizers. The tofu skin cold dish would be my recommendation. If you like to try something different, I'd suggest the... More

Very good and cheap! fried tofu was full of flavor. I'm not vegetarian but it was the best tofu I've had. Would recommend this place for a good value lunch or dinner.

I love this place. The staff is friendly, the food is spectacular and I leave happy happy happy. The vegan Moo Goo is my favorite and the vegan egg rolls are ridiculously amazing. As for folks getting towed, the owner went around asking folks if they were parked in the wrong lot last time we ate there. He seemed very... More

A good place to go for cheap food that's fairly fast. Lots of vegetarian options. Almost any kind of "fake" meat.

Great potstickers. Many bland dishes, but the menu is very large and accommodating to vegetarians. Located in a strip-mall basement on Nicollet.

We ran in to pick up take out and believe we were "detained" while our car was towed. The man was gone in the kitchen a long time. A black car sits outside and a man calls the waiting tow trucks to come and get cars that park in a school parking lot at night because the restuarant lot is... More

Park on street, or in back. Then follow the stairs in front down to the basement.
