Tried the food again today. I got the dry pot veggies and the salt and pepper tofu. I requested everything extra spicy. It is amazing. Everything is flavorful, spicy, and a 10/10. read more

I wished I had time to enjoy more items; however, I was traveling. The restaurant is cute. There is a buffet that has a variety of items. I wish I had gotten that. You are allowed to select it as an option to go. The service was friendly and helpful. I will be visiting again.

I decided to check this place out because I don't often get the opportunity to dine alone and I wanted to try something new. I was worried I wouldn't be able to find parking (my Google maps was saying parking was difficult). Fortunately since it was the evening/weekend, I was able to find after hours parking in the lot. I opted for the buffet ($16.50 on the weekends). From what I can see from previous reviews, the price has been the same the last two years. The server I had was very attentive and there were a steady flow of customers coming in and out. I was looking forward to have some delicious/flavorful food and this was it. As a nonvegan, I still enjoyed the items at the buffet. I loved the eggplant, green beans, sesame balls, and salt and pepper tofu. I can't wait to come back next time and order something from the menu. read more

They don't know what gluten free is. I asked them, and they said almost everything was gluten free. When I told them soy sauce usually isn't, they told me I was wrong. Unfortunately, I decided to trust them. read more

This restaurant was recommended by a friend so another friend and I decided to check it out. They have a wide assortment of vegan dishes and a lunch buffet that had several tofu dishes, vegetables, and noodles. The staff is friendly and attentive. My friend has a gluten sensitivity and they took the time to explain which dishes she could enjoy. There is not a lot of seating but we went for a late lunch so we were able to find a table. read more

The food on the Buffet looked SO GOOD that I decided to dine in and order the BENTO BOX! I must say the ambiance of the atmosphere was nice and the food was freshly seasoned really well. The little egg roll was really good. My stomach was satisfied as was I. I told the gentlemen waiter (who was so nice) that I will be back and had to give him an extra tip. This will be my new little spot. read more

Came here for a random weeknight buffet dinner (right after working out at the LA fitness across the street). It's a cute, quiet spot that's not too large but feels very welcoming. Upon entering, staff welcomed us and were super nice and polite throughout our dinner. They checked on our water and helped us refill our cups and cleared dirty plates and asked how we found the food. Food itself was all great, I don't usually eat solely vegan food but it was such a welcome treat! I particularly loved the green beans, egg plant, and salt and pepper tofu. I kept going back for those three and would return for the same! They also had some dessert options and I really liked the sesame ball as well as the coconut fruit soup. The latter was very refreshing and was a nice, light dessert. This is definitely a lowkey spot but well worth the cost for the buffet. They also have food you can just order so if you aren't feeling super hungry, you can order what you want and they'll make it fresh for you! read more

I was invited by friends to go for lunch, what a surprise! We did the buffet and the food was delicious, fresh and you had the option to really spice it up with optional sauces. The Hot n Sour soup was thoroughly delicious. Give it a try and you'll be as surprised as I was. read more

I had an absolutely amazing time at Trendy Vegan! This place is truly a hidden gem in Houston. I honestly couldn't believe everything on the menu is vegan, every single thing I tried was so good. It's officially one of my new favorite spots to grab a bite. The prices are affordable, the atmosphere is super chill and relaxing, and the staff is incredibly kind and welcoming. I'll definitely be back. 10/10 read more

Although not a vegan at the moment, Trendy Vegan is one of the Inner Loop restaurants I do frequent the most. My significant other, who is vegan, really likes the Vegetable in Dry Pot Bento box. He loves it, actually. My favorite Trendy Vegan dish is actually the Salt and Pepper Tofu. Sometimes, the chef gets a bit heavy handed with the ground pepper, but it's still delicious. You can add soy and sriracha sauces to add more flavor but I also enjoy eating the tofu without the extra sauces. Ordering is always easy, and I usually just call it in while on the road. Service here is always good, and this is definitely one of my favorite go-to spots. read more

Trendy Vegan - Salt And Pepper Tofu. Tomato Slices and Spring Roll are my own; the dish comes with rice and tofu only. It comes with Soy, Sriracha sauces. - Vegan Near Me - Houston, Texas

This place gives me a lot of peace when I visit - the gentle atmosphere, no-frills buffet, and friendly service are inviting and welcoming, and regardless whether I dine alone or with friends, I love staring out the glass windows to people watch. The buffet has most of the menu's greatest hits on it, including the sprightly green dan dan noodles, the well-seasoned salt-and-pepper tofu, and the veggie dry pot - I love mixing things side-by-side, creating new hybrid dishes that strengthen one another. The hot and sour soup has a characteristic peppery kick that makes it so addictive, and the coconut fruit cocktail makes for a light and sweet treat at the end of the meal. If you can't spare the time to chill at the restaurant, the takeaway bento boxes are a steal at $13.50 each, which come with an entrée of your choice, dan dan noodles, salad, and rice. Whether you're a plant-based diner or just looking to incorporate more fiber into your diet, Trendy Vegan is a lovely, family-owned choice that should make the top of your list. See you around! read more

Really enjoyed Trendy Vegan. We were literally just in the area trying to grab a bite and I wanted something lighter. Parking was crazy on Saturday evening! All the businesses have designated parking and there are multiple signs about being towed. So good luck if you go on a Saturday! Luckily one of the nearby businesses was closed so we found a spot. They have a buffet that looked pretty good but the bento box was more affordable and came with enough food for me. I had the Singapore noodles with tofu added and spring rolls. The noodles were delicious! Loved the curry flavor with tofu and veggies. The salad was also good. Very simple with maybe a ginger dressing? Really enjoyed my meal. The spring rolls were somewhat lacking thoug. It was mostly breading of the roll. My partner ordered the Tokly salad. It said it came with edamame, but they don't put that in the salad anymore. Seemed odd that it would be called "Tokyo" without that and they didn't offer anything in exchange for that and didn't really apologize. Also, he was still hungry after that so that is something to keep in mind. Overall, I would go back. The buffet looked delicious and there's other things I'd like to try! read more

Went the day before thanksgiving and so glad we did!! Everything is vegan and so delicious!! Loved the eggplant and Lamartin, fried rice too! The garlicky fried green beans were phenomenal! You can choose Ala Carter or buffet but buffet is only 16.95 per person for dinner!! so we all went with that and kids are about $8 each! Great deal! You still have good service with them clearing tables and filling water while you pick more from buffet, cute little restaurant with booth seating and take reservations as well. Delicious food , definitely recommend! read more

Everything here is delicious. The food here is unmatched by anything in town. I recently saw they have a lunch and dinner buffet, I can't wait to try both. On top of it all the service is amazing. Thank y'all so much, I will be back very soon! read more

I love when I have the opportunity to come here with friends or on a solo date. Not only is the food absolutely delicious, but the staff is incredibly nice too. I'm so glad that they got rid of that QR code menu that gave the dining experience a hip and cool new way to order, but not everything has to be technology advanced. Ordering from a menu should be simple so I'm happy they went back to the roots. If you get here between 11 am to 3pm, you might be able to catch the buffet. It's very small, but quality is just as tasty. However if you choose to sample a little bit of everything, I'd suggest the garlic sauce eggplant, Japanese curry udon, salt and pepper tofu, green beans, and onion pancake, you get a side of rice. Everything is well seasoned and nothing lacks. Individually each large portion sized meal is $11.50 and especially perfect for two people. Even if you have a party of three, each person orders two meals then split the bill - it's definitely affordable. I tried the bento box which is filling for one person. The dandan noodles are cold, but so yummy. The sauces on each dish is unique to its own and doesn't overlap with other dishes. I just love this restaurant. Though its across town, I make that long drive for their food and exceptional service. You won't be disappointed at this all vegan establishment. Good for veg friends and carnivores. read more

The place was small and cute. The options were limited on the buffet bar but you could order from the menu. Favorite: green beans, spring rolls, sushi and noodles Less fav: the tofu (all) The service was good. Very attentive. read more

Food - I love the concept of vegetarian buffet all you can eat style with the variety of food provided. However, my experience there was pretty average. Personally think the dishes are not cooked up to the quality I expected. In addition, several of them also run on the drier side as they may have been sitting out for a while. Service - THE NICEST PEOPLE you'll meet! The waiter kept trying to check in and is very attentive to old customers. You can tell the lady owner is a kind attentive person to her returners. Vibes - clean modern casual. I mostly see non Asians enjoying the food. I may have higher expectations having had amazing vegetarian food in different parts of asia but I wish the food can be tailored towards Asians who love vegetarian food or are vegetarians as well! read more

Trendy Vegan - Buffet - Vegan Near Me - Houston, Texas

Trendy vegan has a very earthy feeling to it. The wooden benches, the art on the wall, everything sets a vegan - plant friendly vibe. Something in the ambiance connects you to a simpler, more appealing time. For the first time I was looking at a buffet outside of Indian food, and with everything vegan, it couldn't get more inviting.... The buffet is priced at $16.50 per adult and $8.50 per child, but there is an ala cart menu too if you wish to eat something specific. The spread is pretty good, while most have the base in tofu, or soy or oats, the texture and the variety still captured my interest and the flavors gave them their individuality. It should be noted that the carbs in the form of steamed rice, or brown rice, or even noodles, come saltless , the salt content is obtained from the various side dishes. There was tofu nuggets, spring rolls, sautéed brinjal, stirred fried vegetables, roasted tofu etc., to name a few. It would have been helpful if they had put up little labels with names as reference. Enjoyed the food while listening to the soft incomprehensible Chinese music that was playing. It was soothing and added to the good food mood, which itself was light and healthy. Staff is very sweet especially if they know that you hold the wallet- jus kidding, limited staff but nice staff. Something on the menu but not part of the buffet is their smoothies, vegan thai tea and dumplings etc., which I definitely hope to try next time. There is definitely going to be a next time. read more

Super disappointed. I wanted to try this vegan place as so many vegan restaurants are going under. I got the cabbage with noodles, and mixed veggies with noodles. There is literally zero flavor. No sauce, nothing it just feels like they were just steamed and cooked together no oil or anything to give any flavor. For some reason, the mixed veggies with noodles is really spicy (I didn't request spice) but that's the only actual flavor from the dish. The four spring rolls came with duck sauce packets, instead of sweet-and-sour sauce. I have a random package of rice. Also no silverware and napkins to go with the meal, kind of hard to eat since I'm in a hotel. read more

This food is delicious, if you leave, there hungry it's your fault. You can eat all you wanna eat. It's worth it for $17.

I love that the vegan buffet is back in this location. A lot of familiar dishes from the original restaurant that was here maybe like a decade ago? Not as good as the other one... I'd say 7-8 out of 10. Very nice staff, clean place, cozy, enough dishes to satiate. I wish they'd make the tofu that resembles shredded chicken--that was incredible! read more

Trendy vegan y'all falling off now. I haven't gotten food from you in a few months. I came today 12-16-25 at 12pm (hour after you open) the buffet food not looking fresh like it usually does. Those noodle y'all had to day oodles noodle I think the waiter said the name...NOT GOOD! They taste gummy without flavor...What happened to the other noodles?? The rice was looking all crusty and hard, the avocado in the sushi rolls are brown. This food used to make me want more, today I barely want to finish my food. I gave 3 stars because I know yall have done better than this in the past. If this was my 1st time it would have been 1star. read more

If I didn't know it was vegan, I'd never guess it! (Love it when that happens.) The food is delicious, and the flavors are spot on. The pan fried & spicy dumplings were my favorites. The veggie lo mein was tasty also. The service was super fast and quite friendly. They had a buffet that we didn't take advantage of, but the selection looked pretty good and it was clean. The Yelpers never steer me wrong, and I'd highly recommend Trendy Vegan also! read more

Wow let me just start off by saying that the service here is unbelievable. My water cup was filled every 5 min, plates cleared away so fast, the staff were considerate and so understanding. My friend and I opted to go for the buffet tour better it was such a good price. Everything was really delicious. Standouts: Garlic Eggplant: ahhh this is a dish that's hard to perfect, and to do it without meat was amazing. Salt & Pepper Tofu: when it comes fresh o it it's so crispy and seasoned so well. After a bit it gets less crispy and it not as good. Tempeh: this was my favorite thing - so flavorful and chewy simply so so delicious. A great little restaurant! read more

We've been meaning to visit Trendy Vegan for some time after relocating to Houston. It's located in the Greenway area across from Costco and LA Fitness and is convenient to access from most parts of town. There is a ton of parking in the shared lot with many other restaurants. The dining area is fairly large with booth and table options and when we went on a weekday evening, it wasn't too crowded. It also has lovely murals that give the space a funky vibe. When we visited, they offered a buffet option that is reasonably priced ($16.50 or so per person) with lots of different tasty dishes to choose from. We tried basically everything they had to offer. Their salt and pepper tofu, bean curd, and garlic eggplant were really yummy. Honestly, there were no misses. And everything tasted fresh including the sushi. You could go back for seconds or thirds and there was always enough of each dish. They also brought out freshly cooked items periodically and were very attentive to us throughout the evening. I understand they also have individual dishes available to order outside of the buffet option. We'll have to try those out as well. Give the Trendy Vegan a try and you won't be disappointed. read more

Great vegan food with very friendly servers. The $16.50 buffet is a great option which allows you to try the majority of the items on the menu. The food is made in small batches and replenished frequently, so it is fresh and delicious c mm. If you don't feel like AYCE, I highly recommend the Bento box for around $12 and allows you to choose an entree to go with predetermined side dishes. We're not vegan, but enjoy dining at Trendy Vegan because the food is delicious, fresh and healthy. read more

I didn't find anything I didn't like the buffet was fresh and changed from California rolls to a really nice eggplant the egg rolls were crisp the hot and sour soup was nicely spiced, and the salad crisp.

Very delicious and the waiter was completely knowledgeable of all ingredients and offerings. I think this place is in a different level just considering the different ways they have managed to provide delicious dishes from a vegan stand point. No photo of my food because it was that damn good lol. My favorite was the vegetable noodle(green) with peas, drizzle on top was the miso dressing(optional). Also the kale salad with the wasabi dressing . Wasabi sauce and vegan Mayo mixed . The entire restaurant is at peace when you walk in and it is completely worth visiting. Most importantly I didn't feel overly stuff when I left which is a great indication that cooking ingredients are indeed vegan read more
