Tofu Vegan in Islington

I had a quick lunch here . I am not a vegetarian and chose a fake chicken dish which was delicious. The food was quite spicy ( perhaps necessarily to mask its blandness ). Service was prompt and efficient. I will go back.

Absolutely delicious food! Great Dim Sum and tofu prepared in the most original and tasty way. They can make it as spicy as you wish and you get free rice refills after the first two bowls. Will definitely go back, feels healthy and tasty!

Such incredible food!! This is always my go-to recommendation for people visiting London because the food is so good - all the flavours are delicious. Tofu vegan is the one place in London I’ll visit again and again. I wish I could make tofu this good! The vibe inside is also really nice - great for all occasions; dates, family dinners and dinners with friends, too. The service is also excellent! Would definitely recommend the wontons in house special sauce - they are so delicious, I get them every time!! ✨

Every single dish was amazingly tasty, from the dim sum to the seared tofu to the noodles to the chocolate dessert ! A must go.

Excellent service here. Great food too. One of our group had a food intolerance and the staff went out of their way to accommodate us, ensuring that everyone got to eat together and share - knowing clearly which dishes couldn't be tweaked for allergen purposes. Really impressive. Excellent food - not cheap but good value considering the effort and quality. Will be coming back.

Last night in Upper Street, we went to Gem (qv) where they failed - maybe because it was an Arsenal match night - to serve us any food at all in the 1 hour and 20 minutes we waited. And management were then un-repentant, aggressive and unpleasant. The contrast to tonight could not be greater: the service was brilliant and professional and the food wholly delicious. And it wasn’t that the place wasn’t busy - it was heaving. We particularly liked the cauliflower, the spinach, the buns with oyster mushrooms and the aubergine (and I don’t even like aubergine, but…) Also the noodles. Yum! Even profoundly meat-eating son and daughter-in-law were happy with the range of flavours and textures. Honestly, meat-eaters wouldn’t miss it. Eight of us celebrating my brother’s birthday and we all had the best time. We would go again like a shot (maybe on a match day next time…)

I don’t like tofu (don’t ask why I came here - long story) and if you don’t either don’t worry there is plenty of non-tofu dishes. The staff here are brilliant and helped this non-tofu eating person with great advice on what to pick and what dishes were good matches. They were very attentive - probably best restaurant staff I’ve encountered in years. Favourite dish by far was the stir fried “Lamm” (no. 32) which we had with bau buns. Also the Spring Rolls (no. 7) and Padron Peppers (no. 42).

Fabulous vegan food that caters for individuals like myself who are fed up with other restaurants (mostly those that serve corpses) ruining the taste of the food with chilli. Here although chilli is in many dishes, they cook without on request. The food is delicious, varied and extremely good value.

Very very tasty dishes, especially the water spinach and the deep fried asparagus, simple but so well done. The hot and fragrant tofu was amazing too. Incredible flavours. Very friendly staff and excellent service. Will definitely be back soon!

Unbelievable vegan food. I think this has become my favourite restaurant in London. I’ve visited all 3 branches and all have had incredible food and amazing service. I have brought meat eaters here and they have been blown away. Every dish I’ve had has been 10/10. The wontons are incredible, I don’t know what is in that sauce but I can literally drink it straight from the bowl. Please open up a branch in west London!

I could not rate this place highly enough, and have not stopped raving about it to everyone who will listen. Every dish was superb and insane value for money. Already planning my next visit.

Wow. The service and the food incredible. Shame I don’t live closer I would be there all the time. So many options to choose from, my non vegan husband loved the oyster mushrooms, the rice and the noodles really flavoursome and would go as far as saying the best I have had since going vegan 3 years ago. Absolutely recommend and will go back next time we are in London. Quick, lovely staff and well priced. Thank you for making tofu enjoyable

This is the best Chinese food I've ever eaten. The spring rolls and wontons were a revelation-full of flavour in their own right. The twice-cooked fisc is rightly one of their most popular dishes, and a delicious taste of the sea in a bao bun. The stir fried mushrooms with cashews was the best I ever tasted. We finished with pumpkin lanterns and sesame rolls-a light a tasty dessert. To drink we had an organic sauvignon blanc from Chile and an aloe vera drink with ginger, both great with the food. The tastes and textures of the food here are unique and brilliant.

A great place for vegans/vegetarians which we are not. Most of our choices worked well but some didn't. We shall have to choose better next time.

Amazing first visit to TV. Great to be able to choose from everything on the menu. Had the wontons - very popular and can see why - sauce was very tasty. Tried cauliflower, tofu rice and a few other dishes. All were great.

Honestly would go here every day if I could afford it. So bloody good. A firm favourite even among no veggie friends. Definitely book in advance though as it's incredibly popular and you won't get a table otherwise. The spicy wontons are just insanely good. Have tried most of the menu at this point and haven't found anything I don't like yet.

We had the Tofu and Vegetable Rolls for starters, the Stir-fry Tofu with Mushrooms and the Stir-fry “Lamb” with Cumin for mains, and the Sesame Rolls for dessert. (The Malbec wine too). All were delicious and very different to other Chinese vegan restaurants in London. The service was very prompt. The ambiance was nice but a little too cramped. The pricing represented good value for money.

Actually visited the branch in Spitalfields but TA doesn't appear to have a separate review section for there. Place was mobbed so a reservation is a good idea. The maitre d'/manageress is not friendly, in a fact a wee bit scary. We were very early...

I visited Spitalfields branch. Hand shredded king o’ster mushroom were nice (more spicy that my liking). Deep fried mushrooms were tasty. Wontons in a special house sauce were the highlight dish, very delicious and flavorful. Smacked cucumbers were very tasty as well, it came with...

Outstanding food, delicious flavours and textures - every dish we had was incredible… don’t have to be vegetarian to enjoy this - highly recommend and would most definitely return.

If you like good spicy vegan food, this is the place a bit expensive, but all good All the dishes tasted like they were supposed to taste, i.e. lamb tasted like lamb tasted like duck

Wow!!! I can’t fault it. Lovely food, great quality and tastes absolutely amazing. Dishes were a good size, arrived fast and hot! We shared a few dishes between us (myself and my wife). Lots of flavour. Gutted I didn’t live closer…..,they’d know me by first...

Tolles Chinesisches Restaurant. Qualität der Speisen sind spitzenklasse. Da alles Vegan ist sind alle komplett auf Ihre Rechnung gekommen und...

My friend and I had dinner at Tofu Vegan Restaurant. We had the vegan Peking duck and salt and pepper mock chicken. Both the food and service were excellent. I highly recommend Tofu Vegan for vegans.

Absolutely unreal wontons. Really loved the "Three delicacies of the earth" (potato, aubergine and pepper) which I had previously enjoyed elsewhere and never found to be as good anywhere else, until here. Very friendly service, from the guy serving us especially. Will definitely be going...

I came here with my Vegan friends, myself and my partner are not vegan and have not been to many vegan restaurants. The food was absolutely incredible, not bad pricing and every single dish did not disappoint. The service was great and the servers were...

It's not often when both the service and the food exceed my expectations. This restaurant managed to do it. I respect the service for their honesty in helping me choose the best on the menu. They were friendly, courteous, and made me laugh after a...

Surprisingly popular venue on the main street in Islington. A full Chinese restaurant experience with dishes that are expertly chosen for diners liking stir fries, dim sum, simmering, fragrant or Peking from a large menu selection.

I had a great meal at Tofu Vegan Spitalfields. All of the food was delicious and our waiter was very helpful at suggesting which dishes would go together well. I would visit again!

This isn’t the first time we’ve been to Tofu Vegan. It has been a staple stop for us on our visits to London for the last year or so. I’ve been vegan for around 5 years now, and it was challenging finding Chinese restaurants that...

Be very very careful if you have food allergies. Menu states what allergens the food contains but this is not actually true. You need to tell the staff what allergens you have as the menu is incorrect. I ordered the food which had no wheat...

Lovely vegan food and waiting staff who were very knowledgeable about the menu. Make sure to try the house special sauce (we had the wontons) and get lotus leaf buns to soak up any extra!
