FAQ
Feedback
I used to visit this restaurant in the 90s before vegan options became popular. I hadn't been back since then, and since there were no reviews on Happy Cow, I was hesitant to try it again as a vegan. However, I recently went with some friends and ordered from the menu. While I was initially surprised by the lack of vegan options on the website, I decided to try the yellow tofu with mushroom and coconut cream sauce that I remembered fondly. We also ordered yellow dahl and tofu satay, both of which were delicious, though the dahl was not as flavorful as I had hoped and the satay was a bit too sweet. The portions were generous and the prices were reasonable. Overall, I may come back here again for the nostalgia and a taste of the past.
