Best restaurant in the world? - Edit
Incredible. Not only is there huge variety, it's also delicious and high quality which can be rare in buffets. You can try food from all over china, including some impressive veganised versions of stuff I thought I'd never be able to try (e.g. abalone and fish skin). Potentially it's 100% vegan as well, as a lady working there told us.
Read moreEven the drinks are included, and deserts - I have no idea how they stay in business at 78yuan per person. They have bubble tea toppings, and hot pot too. There was even a fresh soy milk dispenser which was the best I've ever had.
Can't recommend enough. Very friendly staff too.
Pros: Delicious, Excellent value, Friendly

Great vegan restaurant - Edit
The food and the choices at this restaurant were delicious! We ate there several times during our Beijing visit.
Read moreLunch is between 11-15h and dinner is from 17h. They have only tea time and cold meals in between the two.
You pay 89 yuan for dinner for all you can eat.

Paradise - Edit
This place is paradise for vegan travelers in China. I paid 78 yuan (about 10€) to eat as much as I could. They have a buffet which is (as far as I could tell) completely or at least almost entirely vegan. They offer a mix of few „western-inspired“ dishes (e.g mini pizzas) but mainly traditional (veganized) Chinese food with a lot of mock meat but also just vegetables, tofu, etc. if you’re not a fan of that. Additionally you can refill your drinks and get desert as much as you like – I also packed a lunch box for my flight back to eat at the airport.
Read moreI highly recommend this place, especially since it is more affordable than other vegan restaurants in Beijing! If you’re vegan and in Beijing, eat here!😄

Incredible - Edit
It’s an absolute must if you’re in Beijing! It’s ¥79 per person which is pretty good in Beijing especially if you absolutely stuff your face 🤣 the deserts are insane, they have vegan chocolate and vegan strawberry soft serve ice cream which was super nice but the star of the show is the Oreo cake, you have to have the Oreo cake. They have loads of mock meat dishes which I’m not usually in to but it was great to try traditional Chinese food as vegan. They have over 200 dishes to choose from from the buffet it’s insane. You can also have a hot pot all included in the price which is super cool. Definitely go if you’re in Beijing! Have the Oreo cake.

absolutely amazing (and worldwide unique?) place - Edit
We still can't believe that absolutely everything here was vegan. Over 200 different dishes. We must have tried about 50 of them over the two days, and it was all delicious—haha! The variety is incredible; JUST LOOK AT THE PICTURES. Every morning, 20 chefs spend nearly five hours preparing everything. Everything is beautifully presented and spotlessly clean. The staff are very friendly (a special shout-out to Sofia, who also speaks perfect English). They even rotate a portion of the dishes from one day to the next.
Read moreThe highest praise I can give a buffet restaurant is this: I ate an unbelievable amount of food, yet I still felt great afterwards! :)
And all of this for less than €10.
They have a counter on the wall where they’ve been keeping a running tally every single day since they opened. That’s over 18 years—and they are incredibly proud of it, and rightly so!

Delicioso y muy variado - Edit
Tienen de todo. Proteínas vegetales de muchos tipos: guisos, barbacoa, sopas, bebidas, helado, postres. Todo vegano. Estuvimos tres días en Beijing y vinimos dos veces. Ahora es mi restaurante favorito. Lastima que no esté en España.

Vegan heaven - Edit
Up to 217 dishes to choose from, contrary to what is says on happy cow this is a fully vegan restaurant, buffet style and hot pots available. There was an ice cream station, popcorn, salad bar and literally anything you can dream of. Lots of mock meats, my favorite was the vegan burger, sausages and the Mochis. Staff is super welcoming and helpful. Choice can be quite overwhelming, be prepared to be rolling out of the restaurant. Lots of people were there, locals too. This is literally the best thing in the world being vegan.

Bestes veganes Restaurant in China - Edit
Man zahlt einen Preis pro Person (circa 8€) und kann dann das Buffet genießen. Besonders toll war der hot Pot! Die Mitarbeiterinnen sind super hilfreich und haben uns alles erklärt (es war unser erstes Mal Hot Pot essen). Ansonsten reicht die Auswahl von allen erdenklichen asiatischen Gerichten über Tacos und Burger bis zu einer Bubble tea station und kostenlosem Kaffee. Ein Muss für jeden vegan Reisenden in Beijing!

Best vegetarian buffet! - Edit
7 days in Beijing and we've returned twice so far - and we're planning to come back one more time before flying off. My whole family loves this place! The variety of food is amazing - your mouth will water just looking at the choices (218 dishes!!), everything tastes delicious and even when you're feeling full you'll want to have "just another bite" to taste something new. The other wonderful thing is being able to try typical Chinese dishes that aren't usually made vegetarian! And last but not least, shoutout to the staff who are so kind and helpful 🫶

Sehr gutes all you can eat buffet - Edit
Es war einfach sich zurechtzufinden und meist konnte man die veganen von den vegetarischen Sachen gut unterscheiden. Einige Mitarbeiter haben sogar englisch gesprochen und konnten helfen. Für umgerechnet 7,50€ pro Person absolut empfehlenswert!

Endless variety of food, but all buffet quality - Edit
This place does truly offer an amazing array of vegetarian options. The only downside is that the majority of dishes are very oily and at one point just taste like stale oil. Som really good veg and salad options to help offset that, though.
Read moreMy favorite thing was surprisingly the warm soy milk from the fountain drink area.
Also, to any possible germaphobes out there, this will NOT be your cup of tea. There are no food safety screen guards at any of the stations…

Unbelievably Awesome - Edit
My favorite vegan restaurant in the world, and yes, it is vegan, according to the woman who worked there and all the signage and everything I saw. Variety is endless. Food is delicious. Such an amazing buffet. I thought I died and went to vegan Heaven. Hallelujah. Praise be. Love this place. Sounds like the owner is a great person. Used to have like ten of these restaurants but Covid shut down six of them. Can’t find the other three on Happy Cow…update please? So good. Please support and enjoy!

The woman also said this to me, but I was wary bc HappyCow listed it as vegetarian. Is there a way someone could confirm if it is actually vegan?

Nos encantó este restaurante :
Read more- la comida está muy bien y hay muchísimas opciones de entrantes, platos principales y postres.
- es un lugar limpio, donde cuidan el higiene.
- el personal es muy amable.
Se siente muchas energías positivas y mucha paz.
Toda esta combinación hizo que hemos comido en este restaurante los 6 días que estuvimos en Pekín. Estuvimos tan a gusto que no quisimos probar otro restaurante.
Así que es muy recomendable.

Insane vegan buffet paradise in Beijing – do not miss 🌱 - Edit
This might honestly be one of the craziest vegan buffets in the world. The selection is massive—there are so many dishes that it’s impossible not to find things you’ll love. Everything is fully vegan, with an impressive spread of appetizers, hot dishes, salads, soups, desserts, and drinks.
Read moreSome of our favorites were the hot and sour soup, the refreshing cucumber salad, and the wasabi dressing, which was absolutely incredible. After spending two weeks in China mostly eating noodles and dumplings, it was such a relief to find some Western-style options mixed in as well.
The restaurant was extremely busy when we visited, which really says a lot. They even include a hot pot option, but we were already way too full to try it.
Beyond the food, there’s also a great selection of drinks that aren’t overly sweet—very refreshing—along with a solid dessert section, including ice cream.
If you’re in Beijing, this place is an absolute must-visit. Do not miss it.
