The soy beef here is so good! I really liked the broccoli soy beef when I was here last, so I thought I'd try the Mongolian soy beef this time. I love the generous amount of onion that came with this. It was in a delicious, flavorful sauce. It also came with some chilies, signaling some spice! It had a little kick, and you can ask for it spicier if you'd like. It was very manageable with the regular amount of heat though. For a group of four, two entrees and two appetizers was perfect and it was only around $50. #veganbeef #veganmeat #onion #scallions #chili #pepper #chinesefood #mongolian #soy #vegantravel #veganonvacation #chicago #chinatown

I'm not sure if this was on the menu the last time I came here! @jonok and I had the orange tofu, and I swear we would have picked this mushroom-based dish if it were available at the time. I was definitely happy to see it on the menu. Panda Express orange chicken was my favorite part of going to the mall as a child. This vegan chicken is made with battered and deep fried oyster mushrooms. That's the best version of chicken in my opinion! It's then smothered in an orange sauce, served with fresh orange and steamed broccoli. It's really a perfect orange chicken dish! #veganchicken #veganmeat #orangechicken #orange #broccoli #oystermushroom #mushroom #mushroomlover #sweettooth #deepfried #sweetdreamsaremadeofgrease #chinesefood #vegantravel #veganonvacation #chicago #chinatown

Fried spring rolls are always a great way to start a meal. These have wood ear mushrooms, carrot, celery, bamboo shoots, and glass noodles. They're served with a sweet and sour sauce. I really like that they have the wood ear mushrooms in them. They provide a unique meaty flavor. The sweet and sour sauce is different from any other that I've had. It was a bit too sweet for me without enough sour to balance it out. #springrolls #deepfried #dimsum #sweetdreamsaremadeofgrease #sweetandsour #cabbage #woodear #mushroom #mushroomlover #carrot #bamboo #glassnoodles #chicago #vegantravel #veganonvacation #chinatown

It's perfect that a lot of the appetizers come in four because I came in with a group of four! I really like the colorful dough used to make these dumplings. It's kind of odd that there weren't any chopsticks here. It's a bit odd to pick up a dumpling with a fork or your fingers. The inside wasn't anything special, but they did come out super hot and fresh. #dumplings #cabbage #carrot #spinach #carrot #beetroot #eattherainbow #chinesefood #dimsum #vegantravel #veganonvacation #chicago #chinatown

Crispy tofu in a delicious orange sauce. Overall the restaurant has so many good vegan options.

Orange Tofu

The best dang orange tofu I've ever feasted upon! It was a perfect appetizer for our meal. The standout of this dish was easily the orange sauce. Second to that: the crispiness of the tofu. The niblets of orange were a nice addition to bring the orange-iness of this dish over the top. Veggie House is not to be missed if you're ever in Chinatown!

We picked this because we love lion's mane and we wanted to try a dish with unfamiliar ingredients. Three cup sauce is made from sesame oil, rice wine, and soy sauce. It wasn't as deeply savory as the soy oyster sauce was. But I liked trying something with a different flavor profile. The oyster mushroom chunks were huge and soaked up the flavor well! The remaining ingredients in this dish are: bamboo cub, string beans, carrots, zucchini, ginkgo, cinnamon, angelica, and fried ginger. The gingko was a new food for me. It has a starchy texture and not much of an initial taste, but left a bitter aftertaste. The zucchini isn't like zucchini I know, but must be another kind of summer squash. I didn't really enjoy that vegetable in the dish either. I'm glad we ventured to choose something different, but it wasn't as big a hit for me as the familiar flavors in the Broccoli Soy Beef. #mushroom #mushroomlover #chinesefood #chinatown #chicago #lionsmanemushroom #bamboo #gingko

This is such a delicious and classic dish! The soy oyster sauce was so delicious and savory. The broccoli and carrots tasted really fresh and I loved the large chunks. The soy beef was chewy and had a good flavor. The portion was huge and I loved sharing it along with another dish so we could test out a few items on the menu. Get this entree if you're looking for something that's familiar, meaty, and savory! #broccoli #veganmeat #chinesefood #chinatown #chicago #veganbeef #carrot #soy

This was everything I could have asked for in an orange sauce! I used to love orange chicken, so I was really excited to try this tofu with orange sauce. It was so thick and sticky and the orange taste was wonderful. I love that it had actual pieces of orange and orange zest. #tofu #chinesefood #chicago #chinatown

this was really good, it just had black fungus mushrooms which i’m not the biggest fan of. still one of the best places to go to in chicago in my opinion! chef is from a 5 star hotel downtown, the peninsula. sadly there’s dairy in a few things but most dishes are vegan!
