So much choice so much to enjoy! - Edit
In the beating heart of China Town , wonderful authentic food. We most probably chose too much, as not able to check previous reviews, however didn’t stop us eating all the food! Everything was delicious, photos don’t do the food justice ‘ fish in black bean sauce’ was amazing as was turnip starter.

Great eats for all - Edit
A huge menu of veganized standard Chinese food and unusual dishes. Plus an entirely separate dim sum menu. Lots of gluten-free options and the staff totally knows their way around GF ingredients.
Read morePros: Huge menu, Gluten-free options, Relatively affordable for NYC
Cons: Seems like there's always a wait to be seated

Amazing vegan Chinese! - Edit
The menu is extensive, we ordered the 'chicken' sweet and sour with fried veggie rice. The main course portions are massive! We got 12 sweet and sour balls for the main and only 3 spring rolls for the starter. The rice portion was massive too. The food was incredible.

Exquisite Vegan Dim Sum (Chinese Brunch). - Edit
I had the pleasure of ordering 8 Dim Sum dishes for my birthday last month, and the food experience was amazing.
Read moreThe turnip cakes, "shrimp" rice rolls, and steamed vegan meat buns were my favorite.
Bodhi Kosher does a great job of retaining the flavors from non-vegan dim sum dishes.

Excellent Chinese food! - Edit
This place is great! On our travels, we've found good Chinese food can be hard to find, and my partner isn't usually excited by it, but he loved it here. The fried taro balls, Szechuan beef, shrimp dumplings, laksa, Hong Kong noodles and General Tso's chicken were all tasty and not bogged down in oil. Our non-vegan friend was impressed too. The server was really friendly and funny too. Will definitely be back!

Went here with my boyfriend for our anniversary! It's his new favorite vegan restaurant of all time! He got the portabella with black pepper sauce. He devoured tons of dumplings and enjoyed himself a lot! I ordered the general tso chickun and had a little bit of the dumplings AND HOLY this place is heaven on earth! You gotta try it! (Just make sure you have a reservation because this place gets packed)

The best Vegan Chinese Food - Edit
They are great. Being a vegan you know how to order vegan Chinese, but this restaurant makes all the dishes the way you remember it before you went vegan. The chefs at this restaurant know what they are doing. The food is tasty, plated well, and all at a great price. I keep on forgetting to take pictures because I am too busy eating.
Read moreGo here! You won’t regret it. Every dish I have tried has been great. I don’t think you can go wrong by ordering something random on the menu.
Pros: Big portions , Great prices , Fast and friendly service
