Great vegan food for a good price

They have a great variety of vegan options if you ask for dishes without egg. The chili tofu is a must try! We came to eat here twice. We had vegetable dumplings, wakame, grilled aubergine, tofu with vegetables, chili tofu, fried rice with vegetables (without egg), udon noodles with vegetables (without egg) and bean noodles with vegetables (without egg).
NOTE: The allergen table in the menu shows the tofu dishes contain milk. However, we think it‘s a mistake as the column next to milk is soy and soy was not marked.

Pros: Vegan selection, Taste, Price

Vegan options but no spice!

At the back of the menu, there was a chart which listed each dish and whether it contained allergens, including egg, dairy, fish, shellfish, etc. Using this made it easier to figure out which dishes were vegan. Oddly, the tofu dishes were listed as containing milk products.

Pros: Many vegan items, Allergen chart helpful

Cons: Very bland, No spice, Tofu listed as containing milk?

Several vegan Chinese food dishes

Server didn’t speak English so we had a little trouble making sure there were no ingredients like fish, egg, or meat, but we figured it out together! Spicy tofu, vegetable dumplings, and veggies with rice noodles…a nice change of pace from traditional Italian food while on vacation.

Pros: Several vegan dishes

Recommend!

I only have one day in Siena so had to choose my dinner wisely. Only a 5 minute walk from my hotel.
Clear menu in English as well, I tried to explain I’m vegan to the lady but she didn’t speak English and I only know very basic Italian. Anyway we still managed to make what I wanted.
I got the noodles with vegetables, spring rolls, chilli tofu (wasn’t spicy!), & a fortune cookie and it only came to 12.50€!! So cheap!
All was lovely and fresh. I took away as I wanted to watch a movie but the restaurant looked very nice.

Higley recommend

Really nice stuff. You can find some vegan dishes on the menu. We explained the nice waitress that we're vegan and she helped us to choose. The grilled toufu was the best.

Pros: A lot of vegan options , Fair price , Nice stuff

Cons: I wish it was all vegan

Delicious and fresh

If you want a break from Italian food or just like Chinese food, then you should try out this one. It’s a family-owned restaurant in a beautiful cellar so you get both the sense of historical Siena and Chinese culture while dining.

The owners and staff are super friendly and kind. Tell them you’re vegan and they will guide you through the menu.

They have several vegetarian options and some of them can be veganized. The food is fresh and tasteful and the house-made tofu is just amazing.

Pros: Tasteful, Nice venue, Kind staff
