Vegan Tree

Vegan Tree
4.4 / 5 (1588 reviews)

Description

Located in Matawan, NJ, The Vegan Tree is a restaurant that evokes mixed feelings among its patrons. While the food garners praise for its vibrant flavors and generous portions—especially the Thai fried rice and pot stickers—the ambiance leaves much to be desired. Guests often note the lack of cleanliness, with dirty tables, unpleasant odors, and health code concerns overshadowing the culinary experience. Though situated in a strip mall alongside a smoke shop, and occasionally marred by staffing issues, the restaurant's commitment to vegan cuisine shines through, making it a worthwhile visit for dedicated foodies despite its drawbacks.

Visited 9/14/24 We got the Summer Rolls, Happy Buddha, and the Vegan Tree Burger. Summer Rolls were nice, Happy Buddha was really delicious, and the burger was fairly good. Overall, we really liked the food!! The fake meat was based in soy. Normally I'm not a fan, but I liked it in the Happy Buddha meal FYI Restaurant is more of a takeout spot, not very nice seating for sit-in dinner. Updated from previous review on 2024-09-15

I had to go to Freehold and looked for somewhere to eat. I ordered the Philly cheese steak ,crispy rolls, and the mindful medley. All were excellent!! I told my husband (not vegan) about it, and he said he 'd try it. We brought my mother in law (not vegan) and ate inside. We ordered the scallion pancakes, Happy Buddha, Philly cheese(my dinner), and Linguine De Italia with the white sauce. We loved everything! My husband actually wants to go back and try everything on the menu! The guy at the counter is very nice and accommodating to your needs. Updated from previous review on 2024-08-05

We didn’t stay. It was dirty and the employee who seemed to be the manager had pet hair all over his shirt. The door to the kitchen was painted white, but the part of the door that they would push on was black from dirty hands. That they are making your food with. We went in the summer but they hadn’t swept the floor since the fall because there but there was crushed leaves dust bunnies. We drove 6 miles out of the way to try something new and healthy and I’m glad we both agreed to leave before we ordered. We chose to be vegan because we want to be healthy. Not to get sick from eating out. Updated from previous review on 2023-08-08

I used to live near this restaurant when it was a Loving Hut. They have been Began Tree for 6 years. The dish I had was delicious. Soy nuggets. Fired and served with stir fried vegetables and purple and white rice. I asked for medium heat and it was perfect. The ambiance leaves something to be desired but most of the business these days is takeout. The menu isn’t extensive but it’s all vegan which for a vegan means it has a larger menu than most. Featuring appetizers, soups sandwiches and entrees. About half a dozen choices in each category. Glad to see it’s still here!

Went today with my boyfriend and we both loved it. Very fresh and interesting options. We had potstickers, wonton soup, and kung pao linguini. Everything we got was amazing!
