Reviews for Garden Fresh in Mountain View, CA
Fantastic vegan Chinese. <3 friendly staff. A bit disorderly furnishing, but I found that part of the charm.
The lady who runs is just so lovely and sweet! Absolutely wholesome ???? Please do visit this place and support them ???? and... the food is just fabulous!!! ?? Their best dish is the veggie duck (I?m someone who grew up eating chicken, yet love this themost). Best dish: Veggie duck Really good: Szechuan chicken Others: Black pepper chicken The texture of the chicken is not too- chicken like, but the texture of the duck is amazing! (Meat like) Read more
Lovely ALL VEGAN Chinese food spot run by a super cute older couple from Taiwan! They?re super friendly and have such an... extensive menu! Food was really yummy, the chow fun was so chewy!

Items we ordered: - hot and sour soup - chow fun - mango chick?n - friedpepper chicken Check us out on @vegeatswithya on IG for more vegan and vegetarian eats in the area! Read more
Authentic Buddhist Chinese food (vegan) that features faux meats made of gluten or togu skin, to deliver the look & (mouth)feel... of the real thing. One of a very few fully vegan Chinese restaurants in the region. Well executed dishes, though sometimes theflavors can converge. Highly recommend Veggie Duck. Do not recommend Hong Kong Style Fried Noodles (go to a Cantonese restaurantfor this!) Excellent for plant-based diets. Due to Omicron they're back to take-out only, though they accommodated us when werequested (and helped) to move a table outside. Read more
Great option for spicy food lovers! Bonus points for a small, locally-owned mom and pop shop (a husband and wife run the place).... Been coming here for a few years and has always been consistently tasty. Try to come early before you are hungry because theyare pretty stretched and don't have a lot of workers. The place is pretty small so there may be a little bit of a wait. Goodauthentic Chinese food but with a vegetarian (probably vegan) twist. Food is so good that even meat eaters can enjoy it becausetheir veggie meat is really, really good. Their faux meat options actually taste different from one another (duck is probablythe most popular, I like the ribs, and chicken as well). I had their vegan dessert cake before (in the refrigerator) and it washonestly the best vegan cake I've had. Not sure where they get it from but it was soft and moist. Read more
One of the best and oldest vegan restaurants in the South Bay. My family has been coming here ever since they opened back in the... 1990s. In all that time, not one meal, and not even one single dish, has ever been disappointing. This is vegan Chinese food asgood as it gets. Huge portions. You can't go wrong with any dish, but the scallion pancakes appetizer is a must. If you likedessert, they have excellent vegan chocolate cake and carrot cake. The lady who owns it works crazy hours and is always so nice. Read more
Went here to celebrate 5 years with my boyfriend :). The owner was super sweet and recommended great dishes. 10/10 recommend!... Their chicken substitute tastes really good and my family barely could tell the difference between it and real chicken. Read more
