So many options - Edit
Love vegan places like this - cheap, cheerful and tasty. I tried the wonton noodle soup - lots of veges, noodles and massive wontons, I couldn’t finish it all - and my partner had the laksa, which had a great flavour to it.

Could not eat there - Edit
They do not accept payment by card when you are not from NZ. As much as I wanted to eat there, I could not… Not very welcoming

Amazing food!! - Edit
Definitely a must try, everything is vegan on the menu and such good portion for the cheap prices. I had the potato and soy curry which was insanely good. The waitress was also very friendly and helpful when I asked about what was most popular etc. Wasn’t sure what was gluten free but I didn’t ask I just went for it

Mediocre - Edit
Much prefer going to September for flavorful South Asian food with nice presentation and ambience. The Malaysian and Indian food here was kind of gloppy and bland.

Disappointed - Edit
I don’t know if it was just me or I picked the wrong things on the menu but I was pretty disappointed in the food. I ordered a tofu curry with roti, bbq bun and spring rolls. The spring rolls were totally oily and the bbq bun not edible. The roti however was nice and the curry not too bad. Staff were very rude and you can’t pay on card if it isn’t from NZ. So bring cash! Maybe just caught them on a bad day but I would not go back. Great though that it’s all vegan.

Large menu - Edit
The menu is so big! Our food was good but way spicy (for us) so verify spice level if it is a problem for you. Food was cooked deliciously at the front of the restaurant so points for ambience!

3.5 expected more - Edit
We had the Laksa and tom yum (super spicy!) which were solid. The fried rice noodles tasted totally bland and I had to put a lot of soy sauce on top. The fried drum sticks were fun but lacked flavour.

Tasty dish that was very quickly served. I was early which turned out good, because it became quickly busy around dinner time. Had a lovely apple tea, and Nasi Lemak. Service was friendly and quick. Recommend.

The Auntypodes - Edit
On the amazing Cuba Street is this homely vegan restaurant serving home cooked food in homely surroundings. As it was coming up to closing time we went for a take away of fish curry and tom yum tofu both of which came with rice. Large portion sizes meant there was ample for an evening meal and a dirty microwave breakfast the next day. The mock fiish and tofu both had a succulently chewy consistency full of absorbed flavour. The food was ultra fresh and came to a more than acceptable 41 NZD. We could have got so much more and kind of regret not visiting earlier during the stay.
Read morePros: Freshly cooked, Nice staff , Good value

Curry noodle - Edit
Had a very nice noodle curry dish, filling and tasty. The only problem was when I went to pay they don't accept foreign payment cards or credit cards, so I had to go across the road to the cash machine, which charged me 5 dollars for the withdrawal.
