About

This casual, light-filled Chinese restaurant serves vegan-friendly vegetable dumplings, salt-and-pepper tofu, seaweed tofu salad, and vegetable dan mein alongside a much broader meat-based menu. Reviews mention shareable portions, an open kitchen, and fresh greens such as bok choy and pea vines; check with staff because the menu’s “v” label can mean vegetarian, and fried rice may need to be ordered without egg.
