Average, taste can be improved

Most of the appetizers were not available. Fried dumplings were good. The hot japanise tea was terrible and tasted like fish. Noodles dishes were ok but not so tasty. You can find better quality for lower prices in the area. Good thing is it open in the evening

Amazing vegetarian restaurant!

Such good quality food. Big portions! Loads of great options, it made it hard to choose.

Good!

Delicious radish cake and snacks, a bit pricy for the area for my tastes (13 a drink, 15-17 a plate) but great opportunity to taste different plates in a vegetarian version. They do beyond meat and veggie chicken options.
I don't recommend the Japanese dishes though, better try the Chinese!

Lot of options

Taste was great and they have a lot of options. It could have been marked better what is vegan and whats vegetarian. I am still not sure if everything I ate was vegan...

Delicious food in Ipoh

The food here is delicious, the vegan meat is so realistic we thought it was real at first!

Added Egg when I Requested Vegan

I just ordered takeout to get back to my hotel to find that one of the items I ordered was completely missing and there was a fried egg on top of the rice dish. I specifically said no egg three times. I watched the order go into the till and paid 37r’s to get home not being able to eat any of it.

Not brilliant at all!

Cons: Wrong order, Missing dish , Financial waste and food waste

Comfortable environment

We love that they have hotpot set for individuals like us craving for some hot soup.

We also ordered their Bak ku teh with youtiao. The soup is nice but a little too overloaded with shrooms (would be nice if there are not as much)

Unagi don was nice too!

They offered western, Chinese, Japanese food all in 1 place. Will be back again hopefully!

Pros: Great ambience, Wide selection of food

Ambience Tea House & Veggie Cafe, Ipoh

This place is quite heavy on lacto-ovo. The menu doesn't mark vegan items. I ordered a bak kut teh which when served, had to my disappointment 2 different types of mock meat (I'd have preferred not to have any). Maybe I should have anticipated that and specified no mock meat. The other dishes I ordered were defo tasty enough. No issues with vibe nor the people serving.

This place is OK if nearby but not worth making a journey specially to eat here.

Cons: All vegan is always better, Vegan items not menu marked

Great Food is hiding behind the red door

Even when it looks a bit closed by the massive door, go in ans enjoy some of the best veggie / vegan food we ever had in Malaysia. The Vegetarian Nasi Lemak is outstanding! Everything seems freshly made to order.

Pros: Food

Cons: Looks a bit closed from the outside, No outdoor seating
