I craved vegan dim sum. I am glad I went to this restaurant which serves everything vegan in Chinatown.
The vegan dishes are tasty and affordable. They also come in smaller plates. So it's perfect for someone who dines alone to try more dishes. I enjoyed everything I ordered.
If you haven't eaten here, you haven't lived! I go here at least once a week. Been here 3 times a week sometimes because its that good. Also the employees are adorable. I love these people š
THE absolute best Chinese veggie food Iāve had since turning veggie. The fake pork tastes almost real. Very friendly staff too. Thank you

Iām beyond happy I finally paid a visit to Bodhi, as it had been on my list for a very long time.
Iām so happy that I can eat everything from my younger (meat eating) dim sum days, but it not actually being real meat!
The dim sum pastries are delicious and generous as you get 3 of each per order!
I had the:
- sweet sticky rice with coconut ($5.25)
- sweet sticky rice sesame ball ($5.25)
- vegetarian meat pastry ($5.95)
- cha shui bao ($5.95)
All 4 pastries are sooo good!
For the appetizer we had the:
- appetizer platter ($24.95)
I honestly regretted ordering this, because out of everything I only truly enjoyed the vegetarian beef jerky (amazing!!!).
So I wonāt be ordering the platter next time, Iāll be going straight to the ābbq vegetable meatā instead now knowing how close it tastes to the meat version.
For the main we had the:
- soy sauce noodle honk kong style ($14.95) this is my favorite noodle going all the way back to my meat eating days.
It doesnāt come with vegetarian meat topping options unfortunately, that wouldāve made this even more perfect!
But this noodle can hold its own for sure, so I wonāt be complaining any further!
Service was super sweet and fast!
The restaurant and its restrooms are clean enough, pristine even for it being Chinatown!
I already cannot wait to come back and try the other dim sum pastries, appetizers and mains!
I get to eat my Asian childhood foods at an affordable pricing as a vegetarian, a dream come true!
Thank you Bodhi for existing!!!
Incredible. Amazing. No words. I lived in Beijing for a year. I love Chinese cuisine but now I'm vegeterian so I can't try as many Chinese dishes as I'd like. Today you have brought me back so many memories... Thank you.

I tried this restaurant on my way back after a hair-cut in the China Town saloon.
A vegetarian Chinese restaurant!
A cuisine that has all possible kinds of meat, but I can order anything from their menu, it felt surreal.
I was given a pot of tea on-the-house -- warm, watery, and nice.
I had the veg clear soup, and veg dumplings. They were all good. The chopsticks, bamboo wooden boxes and the peengan (ceramic) give a nice Chinese feeling.
I surely want to go here again.
Friendly staff, quick service, and great food. Being a vegetarian, it was nice to go to a restaurant where I could have anything on the menu. The zest levels were through the roof!!!
The laksha noodle was excellent š... you may add more spice if you wish, but the default is already nice. It has the light curry taste with a bit sweetness and surely mild hotness. One of the waiter can speak Malay BTW š ...cute place good food nice people
I love this place. This was my second time there and it was just as delicious as the first time. Staff very friendly and caring! highly recommended
Dined here several times many years ago and just returned yesterday. The experience continues to be great if not better! Especially shout out to the short hair lady with glasses who was amazing. She really made sure the food fit my husband's dietary restriction of no refined sugar which is challenging for most Chinese/East Asian restaurants. She even brought us tamari soy sauce that's sugar free.
All the dim sum options were great and the best in my view among all the vegetarian dim sum restaurants. The vegetable dumplings had tons of fillings. Taro dumplings both steamed and fried options had great savory flavors. Only the lotus pancakes were a bit greasy and less interesting.
Highly recommend this place!
Sooooo good! Wish we would have tried this earlier. Unfortunately it was our last day in New York. Amazing what magic they do in the kitchen! Also the service was soo nice and friendly āŗļø
Right now this is my favorite Asian restaurant in NYC. I am mostly vegan and this place is great for that, the food in wonderful, I have been here several times and it never disappoints. It is also right in Chinatown.
Food and service is very well.
Highly rated!!!
I am not a vegetarian but my mom is. Ever since we discovered this restaurant we are coming here. The 2nd time was actually my idea to come because the food is so good.
My brother like to come here also and have good comments on it.
We all came from the Mott Street Veg restaurant but this one is much better.
I only wish I grabbed more dim sum to eat laterā¦ (did not get a chance to take pictures of my pan fried dumplings because they were gone in seconds). Definetly worth the visit, deliciously seasoned food and super quick and courteous service. Donāt forget to try their chili oil, super spicy but so worth it. A must go in Chinatown!
First time to this restaurant. Ordered different dishes. Absolutely great and delicious vegetarian food here. I recommend it to all vegetarians!!
As the title suggests, the place serves only vegetarian food. We did not miss the meat. We had a large variety of dumplings and enjoyed all.
My first time I could actually have dim sum!!! This place was SO GOOD! Our local friend ordered for us, and it seemed like a lot but ended up perfect for 3 hungry people. My meat-eating husband even liked it! šš¼
The service was pretty quick--food came out one after another and dishes were pulled as soon as they were empty.
I love bringing people to this place! It always blows them away. Everything is so delicious. The staff is always kind. Itās always great to go with a group of people and order a bunch of different things and share it. You absolutely have to get the BBQ veg meat dim sum dish!
