Parking: Plenty of underground parking. They have limited parking on the top level, but you can slays try your luck! Environment: Located on the second floor of Life Plaza Center, we took the stairs up from the underground parking lot. Although they were not busy, we had a short wait before being seated. Orders were placed and it wasn't long before the food came. What was ordered: - Lunch Special: Crispy Vege Chicken Nuggets with Basil (crispy and tasty) - Lunch Special: Bean Curd Skin and Spinach (flavorful) - Crispy Puff Pastry with Almond Tea (sweet and yummy) Yay/Nay/Meh: Yay. We were very pleased with the food here. The food came quick and the dishes were tasty. Credit cards are accepted.

So happy a vegetarian Asian restaurant finally opened in Monterey Park after so many nearby…read morefavorites, like Happy Family, closed down. The lemongrass "chicken" was delicious with the perfect amount of kick, and the jackfruit shake was especially refreshing on a hot LA day. Other than the music, which sounded a little too much like the tranquil background soundtrack of a foot massage parlor, and the wall that looks like a stainless refridgerator, this spot is definitely making my shortlist for vegans, vegetarians, flexitarians, reduce-atarians and anyone looking for great plant-based Asian food.

Happy vegetarians! Half of our family is vegetarian so we are always on the lookout for a good…read morevegetarian restaurant and we have found one here at Happy Family. We ordered the spicy eggplant, fried mushroom in sweet and sour sauce, house special tofu and orange veggie chicken. Everything was good but we all agreed that the orange veggie chicken and the mushroom sweet and sour were our favorites. Both dishes had the right amount of sweetness and were balanced in its seasoning. The spicy eggplant wasn't spicy at all since they default to making it mild unless you say otherwise. The tofu dish was more like braised tofu in brown sauce but it didn't have any distinctive character. I think next time we will have to try a different tofu dish. The restaurant itself has more of a casual feel. It's not terribly huge so I can see how busy it could get on more popular celebratory days. For us at around 5:30 on a Saturday evening it was not too crowded. The service was very friendly and quick. They were very attentive to our needs and even boxed our left over for us. Free parking is available in the parking structure for the shopping plaza.

Authentic flavor. Spicy noodle soup. Calming music playing. Service is fast and attentive.read more

Had an early lunch on a Sunday here…read more The menu is vegetarian, however most dishes can be made vegan except for those like the egg noodles, or egg soup. We order a mix of items and shared. We enjoyed all of them. I was especially happy they had a non-dairy milk for Thai tea - and it was yummy! They served us a surprise dessert of a sweet mung bean soup like dish - that was a nice treat and unexpected.

Must order - signature Miao's sour soup, Golden braised lamb, Fried tofu balls, Mushroom dry pot, & House fried rice. I also prefer to customize the menu with the owner/chefs. The private room provides great service, exceptional dining experience, and special orders of delicious food such as King Crabs or Lobsters in Miao's sour soup & the spot prawns etc. Recently they curated a few new items on the menu. I will definitely go back soon to taste their always-satisfying Guizhou food!

My friends and I came here on a whim. We originally wanted to go to a cafe in the same plaza but…read moredecided to eat first and my friend point out this place. It's located in a small plaza so parking is limited. I thought it was takeout only so I was surprised that we were directed to sit down. The man who took our order was... quick and efficient. I say that because he'll just point at you and ask what you want and not go in a particular order. He didn't write down our order and repeated what we want before we finished talking. Hey, as long as the food is right, I'm not going to get mad at how the order was taken. The food didn't take long at all. I ordered curry and we were given a plate of veggies to add to our soups. I'm not a big fan of Vietnamese food but I absolutely loved the food here. The soups came in large bowls so it's something that's definitely shareable. I tried a bit of my friend's food and they were all so good. Especially the fish! It's probably the best fish I've ever had. At the end, we were given mung bean soup for dessert. It's not my favorite thing but it was tasty. I will be coming back for the fish!

After trying a few vegetarian spots in SGV, this place definitely has to be on the list! We came in…read moreduring lunch time and it was fairly packed. We were greeted right away and sat down, service overall was very friendly. The meal started off with complimentary soup which was surprisingly hearty. We ordered the banh xeo, crispy chicken, and the yellow noodles. The portions here are no joke! The banh xeo came with a generous portion as well as a lot of lettuce/herbs on the side. The crispy chicken was very delicious and fresh...taste just like chicken! We were very surprised. The yellow noodles came on a huge platter and they did not skimp on the vegetables on the plate. Out of all the dishes, i think the banh xeo was my favorite because it was so crispy and flavorful when everything was put together. They were even kind enough to offer complimentary dessert which was mung bean based. I love bean type desserts so this was very delicious. Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely be back to try all the other items I think next on the list will be the roasted chicken, rice rolls, and lemongrass chicken.

We were greeted with warm smiles, which made us feel welcome right away. The restaurant itself is small, cozy, and comfortable--perfect for a relaxed meal. We ordered the Tom Yum Tofu Soup, Papaya Salad, Pad See Ew with fried tofu, and Thai tea. The food was surprisingly flavorful and absolutely delicious! The Papaya Salad was fresh with a nice balance of sweet, tangy, and spicy flavors, while the Pad See Ew was packed with flavor and had perfectly cooked noodles. The fried tofu was a great addition and complemented the dish well. The Tom Yum Tofu Soup was comforting and aromatic, and the Thai tea was a refreshing way to round out the meal. Overall, we had a wonderful experience. Friendly service, a cozy atmosphere, and delicious food made this a spot worth returning to. I'll definitely be back to try more items on the menu!

SoCal really said "you thought you've had good vegan food before? That's cute."…read more Found this spot in Pasadena and yeah... I get the hype now. Ordered the Angry Pork because obviously I enjoy a little risk in my life. At first I was like, "oh this is mild, how polite." Five minutes later it turned into a full personality shift. That slow burn creeps up and suddenly you're sweating but committed. No regrets. THE PET dish (yes, that's actually what it's called, no I didn't question it) pumpkin, eggplant, tofu situation was ridiculously good. Super aromatic, layered, one of those dishes where you keep going back for "one more bite" like a liar. Then the vegan drumsticks. Look... why did they nail the texture like that? It gave McDonald's nugget energy in the most nostalgic, slightly concerning way. I don't know how to feel about it but I finished them, so there's that. Service was fast, efficient, not trying to be your best friend. Honestly, respect. Menu? A full novel. You will not read all of it. You will pretend to skim and then panic order. It's a fusion situation but leans Thai, and somehow it all works. Price point is definitely on the pricier vegan end, but portions are shareable so you can justify it to yourself. Also get the fresh coconut. They literally hand you a coconut with a straw like you're suddenly on vacation. Overall come hungry, bring friends, and prepare to be emotionally manipulated by how good vegan food can be.

If you're vegetarian and craving something beyond the usual options, this spot is an absolute must-try. Tucked away quietly, it's a true hidden gem serving up incredibly flavorful and satisfying Vietnamese vegetarian dishes. The food is delicious--each dish tastes fresh, well-balanced, and thoughtfully prepared. From fragrant noodle soups to crispy rolls and savory rice plates, every bite was full of depth and comfort. The space is clean and welcoming, and the service is warm without being overbearing. Prices are very reasonable for the quality and portions you get. Highly recommend to anyone looking to explore vegetarian cuisine beyond the typical. It's a wonderful way to enjoy Vietnamese flavors--plant-based style!

Service is typical Asian, lady comes takes your order and if you need something gotta flag her down. Pay at the counter. Basically order, eat and leave. I also saw that they give out free 100 meals every month. So because of that, I'll still rate it 5 stars for food and their generosity.

Amazing ingredient and drink choices with good prices for build your own hotpot…read more Service was friendly, relatively fast for a busy Saturday evening, and I enjoyed the big metal bowl used to serve the food. I enjoyed the complimentary ice cream and will definitely be back for more yummy hotpot and to try more drinks. I genuinely think this was the best Tom Yum broth I've ever had- nothing has even come close to it from any other restaurant ever. I 100% recommend this restaurant for a yummy, reasonably priced, one-of-a-kind Tom Yum broth carrying restaurant. If you're going to try anything- Try the Tom Tum broth.

The food was absolutely fantastic. However, the service was VERY abysmal. I was trying to be polite and wait for the servers to finish cleaning the tables given the status of the crowd. I waited 15-20 minutes and decided to call a server. When I called one over to get the check, I was completely ignored and the server turned their head as I was calling. While the food was amazing, it was disappointing for a service experience. I feel indifferent at the moment. I hope management fixes this problem IMMEDIATELY.
