FOOD - Eggplant & Beancurd ($10.50): how does one describe how the this dish's namesake is amazing with Napa cabbage, a boiled egg, all on a bed of rice? Points for portion, taste, and price! - Vegetarian BBQ Pork Rice ($11.75): if there was a bento box that was healthy yet tasty, this may be it! From the rolls, Napa cabbage "salad", boiled egg, and the generous portion of imitation BBQ pork on rice - each compartment is a treat! === 3. SERVICE For a food stall in a food court, the service was good in English, and I heard it going well in Mandarin also. === 4. ENVIRONMENT It's the Parker Place food court, so it's as good as you are comfortable with it. Despite the closeness of the tables to each other, wheelchairs and baby strollers will fit. Parking is as good as your luck in the constantly-busy shopping complex lot.

Sometimes, you walk past a sandwich board on the sidewalk that brags about "huge salads" and feel skeptical. However, I turned back and grabbed a full-sized salad to-go for a family member and WOW! It really was huge and also high-quality ingredients and dressing. Bonus points to Lexi noticing that my kid was feeling impatient - she immediately offered some crayons and coloring sheets while we waited and it worked like a charm. Both the outside and indoor seating were as relaxing and pleasant as ever. Thanks for being so awesome.

The dishes included were: Sichuan-style spicy tofu (not spicy at all), Fried rice, Fried broccoli, Veggie chow mein, and Sweet and sour vegetarian "meat". The first four were very good, but the sweet and sour was exceedingly sweet (par for the course for the dish). The fried rice was a surprising highlight. I wouldn't have chosen this assortment of dishes if it were up to me, but given the selection, everything was made very well. Not at the level of the Buddhist Chinese restaurants in Vancouver (Po Kong and Sun Bo Kong), but very good nonetheless. I'm sure we will return to try out other dishes. Recommended.

The sesame balls were perhaps the best I have ever had--still warm and toasty on the outside and soft red bean goodness on the inside. Service was very kind and welcoming. The place itself is a cozy spot with around 8-10 tables that can seat 7-8 people and a handful of 2-seater tables. The restaurant opens daily from 12:30 pm-3 pm. Worth adding to any visit to this temple!

The menu was great, lots of items you can order pizza, pasta, and Indian! I got a few dishes, and I was happy with them all. I really enjoyed the veggie burger, and the tandoori paneer plate & the cauliflower wings. Everything was flavourful, and felt healthy, I didnt feel gross after eating this food (most places in surrey you feel like there is MSG and feel not good after eating it) but I felt leaving good! The place was busy when I came in and the staff was very nice and attentive Overall it is very clean, and there is absolutely no meat or eggs there. I will certainly be back to try other items on the menu!

My boyfriend and I were planning on watching a movie at the nearby Strawberry Hills Cineplex. After…read morea search of restaurants in the area, we found this one. A vegetarian bistro and we had just been talking about trying more vegetarian dishes? Why not? As the name suggests, it is small and quaint, buried in a strip mall and one of those "blink and you'll miss it" places. The decor reminded me of a contemporary restaurant where everything is chosen based on their ease of ability to be cleaned (and for the record, the place was clean), with enough seats to sit about 15 people, and I may be rounding up. We were the second table to enter and we were greeted promptly and given the menus. Perhaps I was misled by the restaurant name and did not really know what to make of the meat dishes that I saw: Beef burger? Chicken Nuggets and Fries? Crispy Chicken Burger? I saw nothing to indicate they were the vegetarian version of chicken nuggets or beef burgers, and about 2/3 of the menu was vegetarian or vegan options, so I surmised they must have put a few meat options there to satisfy any meat eaters that wander through the door. I settled on the Spaghetti with Veggie Balls and the boyfriend ordered the Veggie Curry. The pasta was quite filling (included garlic bread) and I discovered the veggie balls and/or sauce was a tad above my spiciness tolerance level, and was even spicier than the Veggie Curry. In hindsight, I wasn't surprised: it is my personal experience that a lot of the times a vegetarian dish will have a lot of spices added in. Chalk it up to not reading the ingredients carefully and thinking things through. In terms of service, I thought it was great. Water glasses were filled regularly, the waitress checked up on us to ask how we were enjoying the food. I would be very interested in coming back and trying other items on the menu!

I've really enjoyed everything I've tried at Kokomo and this was no exception. The burrito was flavourful and very filling. More complex flavours than the usual Southwest-style bean burrito. Good vibes. The staff person up front was very friendly and always had a smile. The store design is bright and fun, and the tables were kept clean. Vegans, vegetarians, or those inclined toward plant-based eating will most appreciate Kokomo, but the food is interesting and objectively good enough the I'd recommend it to anyone looking for something different.
