    Eggplant with tofu
    Chris W.

    This is a vegetarian restaurant and any dishes being mentioned is ALL in vegetarian form. Today is Thursday and we are there for lunch and they do provide lunch special and it is a really good deal. Lunch special provide pumpkin congee or white rice or brown rice pairing with a main course The fried oyster mushrooms is a must to order and I love their eggplant tofu pot The seafood roll is amazing and meatballs with glass noodles is delicious The service is really nice This is good place to dine in when you are looking for vegetarian food Parking is easy in the plaza The restaurant is located at the second level

    Vege Valley is located near the corner the second floor of a plaza with parking on the main floor as well as underground parking. As the name of the restaurant says, everything here is vegetarian. There is a variety of imitation protein to go along with your veggie dishes. The servers were very nice and courteous. We ordered Crispy Veggie Seafood Roll, Hot and Sour Soup, Vege Kidney with Basil, King Oyster Mushroom and Yam with Basil, Shredded Bean Curd with Baby Bamboo and Dessert. Everything was pretty flavorful. My favorite out of all of the orders was the shredded bean curd. I always enjoy eating these types of bean curd dishes with a slight crunch of the bamboo. My wife enjoyed the Crispy Veggie Seafood Roll and that seem to be a big hit around the table. My parents usually order the veggie kidney with basil dish wherever they go to these vegetarian restaurants and they enjoyed this dish here as well. Overall, our group enjoyed eating at this restaurant. This is a nice vegetarian alternative to the usual regular restaurants that we go to. Even if you're not vegetarian, I think you should check this place out and try it for yourself!

    Corn soup

    I dont go vegetarian often, but this place is a must try. A must try for vegetarian lover! We only got a few items, but everything was delicious! The chicken nuggets were fantastic. I could munch on it all day lol Fresh steamed broccoli was good. I didn't think I would enjoy eating steamed brocs with just soy sauce. A little softer would be nice, but still good. The veg fish was an all time favorite. When I do happen to go to a vegetarian restaurant, I would order it (if available). We all loved the sauce in the fish. Even if you don't like the fish, mixing the sauce with rice would be good. Corn soup was a nice start. The corns could be a bit better, but would order it again. The almond pastry was yummy. We all liked the pastry on top more than the almond milk. It was a bit plain. Will definitely return when craving veg foods.

    One of my favorite Chinese vegetarian restaurants! The staff is always so friendly and the food is always great. We came here during lunch so we ordered off the lunch menu which ranges from $13.95-$14.95 per dish and got: Vegetarian sweet and sour chicken, tofu with brown sauce, sizzling udon, kidney with basil. There is an option for white rice or brown rice. The food came out quick and hot and tasted so delicious! The restaurant itself is also very clean and spacious with plenty of seating for large families or smaller parties.

    The ladies who work here are all so sweet and friendly! It's like going to a house full of nice aunties. I ordered for pick up and they were so welcoming and offered me water as I waited. The restaurant is upstairs in a shared plaza and has ample parking (but I didn't see an elevator on that side of the building). The three cup chicken and eggplant basil lunch special were delicious. Very healthy! They are very generous with their portion sizes and I was shocked at how heavy the bag was. The restaurant was very clean and open and looked very nice to dine in.

    Fish with brown sauce
    Karen L.

    Great option for vegetarians! Surprised to find this restaurant so busy on a Saturday afternoon around 1:30pm. Noted that they had several large tables, more so than smaller tables. Ideal for bigger groups. There were only 3 of us but we ended up at a large table as that was the only table available. We got the crispy chicken with basil, fish with brown sauce and sizzling tofu. I enjoyed the tofu the best then the crispy chicken. The fish I think had five spice seasoning and seaweed (nori) to give it that fish flavor. I enjoyed the sauce on the fish but the flavor of the fish itself was just ok to me. The service was friendly and the food came out fast. Would go back again to try some of their other dishes.

    The restaurant is located on the second floor of the plaza. The food camexin big plates and delicious. Because we only had 2 people eating, so we only ordered two dishes. The waitress was nice. She had some recommendations on what to eat. The experience was good. Great vegetarian food

    These are the magical oyster mushrooms!!!

    I'm not a vegan but this place is one of the best restaurants EVER!!! I want to be a vegan because their food is so damn good - I feel like I am missing something if I don't know how to cook like they do! Bonus seeing buddhist nuns eating here. Good for the tastebuds and good karma too!

    I love vegetarian food so when my friend decided to go here for lunch, I was super happy. Vege Valley has a lunch special all week long. Vege Valley is located In a plaza on the second floor. There are tons of parking in their underground parking. We wanted to order everything but since it was just us two, we decided to get three dishes. Minced meat lettuce wrap - I love this dish. I love the crunch from the wonton skin. Orange chicken- this is mushroom batter with orange sauce and it's really good. Fish in brown sauce- I really love the fake fish with the brown sauce. There is a lot of green pepper in this dish. If you're not a fan of green peppers. Don't order this. Our dishes comes with a choice of brown rice, white rice, or for an extra charge, porridge. We decided to go with brown rice. The brown rice was cooked well. The service was good. They also offer a banquet-style menu too. Overall, a great place if you're cravings for vegetarian food.

    My family and I had dinner here to celebrate the holiday season on Saturday, December 27th, 2025. It was recommended to us by my mother-in-law, who is a devout Buddhist and vegetarian. We ordered quite the variety of dishes for our party of 9. The quality of the food was really, really good. The dishes that were meant to mimic meat-centric dishes at traditional Chinese restaurants were pretty convincing. The flavors were very robust overall, my group generally enjoy the dinner. The service was also noticeably better than most Chinese restaurants in the area. We will definitely be coming back the next time we're out to eat vegetarian food in the San Gabriel Valley (SGV) area.

    Veggie chicken nuggets
    Melody L.

    Every time I come back to the SGV, it seems like we lose more traditional, Chinese vegetarian restaurants. Vege Valley used to be run by a husband and wife duo, back when it was still in the 99 Ranch plaza. I think the quality of the food isn't as good since they moved to their new location and are under new ownership, but I'm glad a lot of the menu items are generally the same and there's a lot of nostalgia eating here still. We had the salt and pepper "chicken", salt and pepper fried oyster mushrooms, lion's head meatball, and stir-fried chayote leaves. The chayote leaves were pretty fresh and tender -- even with the stems -- and the fried chicken nuggets with thai basil were as good as always. Some of the oyster mushrooms were a bit too old, which you could tell by the slightly mushier edges in spite of the batter and seasoning. The lion's head meatball is a dish you almost never see in Chinese vegetarian restaurants anymore, let alone elsewhere. I especially like the places that make it with actual tofu vs. some soy protein isolate, and that's what Vege Valley uniquely offers. The taste of the meatballs were good, but man, they were so stingy on the bean thread noodles. As someone who mostly cooks at home (and makes this dish from scratch), I knew that they didn't put more than 1-2 batches of noodles in, which is *superbly* stingy when this dish is supposed to serve 4-5 people. This was a dish that cost $20. My mom asked them to add a couple more so there was enough noodle to share, and they said they would have to charge $4 per extra batch! A pack of 6 at 99 Ranch costs $3-4, so it was absolutely absurd and really reflected poorly on their service. Left a bad taste in my mouth honestly, but I'm still giving this place 4 stars because I want to support the remaining veggie restaurants left in the SGV and overall, the dishes are still tasty. They need to do better by their customers though if they want to keep ones like my parents, who've been eating at the various iterations of Vege Valley over the past 30 years.

    Fried Rice with Herb Sauce
    Travis P.

    Was looking for a new vegetarian spot and this place definitely hits! They serve classic Chinese dishes but made entirely with vegetarian ingredients -- and everything still tasted delicious. Prices are great, portions are generous, and there's plenty of room to dine in. Here's what I tried: Vege Seafood Soup with Egg - Good start! The flavors were solid, though I wish I had some red vinegar to add a bit more depth (I didn't ask if they had any). Still tasty. (4/5) Vege Pork in Sesame Pita Bread - The pita bread was incredible -- perfectly toasted and flavorful. The "pork" itself could've used a bit more seasoning, but overall still enjoyable. (3.5/5) Fried Rice with Herb Sauce - Didn't expect much from this one but it ended up being surprisingly great. Simple, flavorful, and a perfect rice dish to go with the meal. (5/5) Crispy Vege Chicken Nuggets with Basil - A MUST-TRY. Think popcorn chicken but lighter, crispier, and packed with flavor. Not greasy at all. Hands down the best dish. (5/5) Overall, this spot is a winner for vegetarian eats -- even if you're not vegetarian full-time. Definitely a new go-to for me, and I'll be back to try more dishes. Parking: Easy and convenient, with plenty of underground spots.

    Veggie Seafood Soup with Egg
    Sydney C.

    We ordered quite a lot again, as is the tradition with family dinners. The Vege House Chicken with Brown Sauce ($17.95) blew us away. The chewy, layered texture with the umami-sweet sauce was addictive. Other standouts: the Crispy Oyster Mushroom ($18.95) was true to its name and tasted like popcorn chicken, and the Pineapple Fried Rice ($14.95) balanced savory and sweet better than most I've had. The Fried Noodle was solid ($14.95) and the Veggie Seafood Soup with Egg ($12.95) was comforting to have on a windy day. The Dry Sautéed Green Beans ($15.95) were fine, but nothing special. The Black Truffle Fried Rice ($24.95) had a very strong truffle aroma, unexpected for a veggie place...not bad, just bold. The Veggie Kidney with Basil ($16.95) had an interesting texture that leaned too close to its namesake for comfort in my opinion. The Buddha's Feast ($15.95) had quite a lot of different veggies, but the yam had this odd aftertaste that I couldn't quite stomach. Service was quick and the space is cozy. We actually made some reservations since my family occupied 2 of the 3 large roundtables. I'd recommend it if you have a large party as well, since the restaurant is relatively compact.

We came with a group on a saturday and they were able to seat us immediately - plenty of parking in the large plaza where the Hat and Shiki Buffet is (previously hometown buffet location). All of the items on the menu were intriguing, but I was eyeballin' the salt and pepper one and the fried tofu. My buddy got the lemongrass "chicken" and also the curry with bread. Since we were eager to try the different types of food, we did a family style and that was the best decision. We also got eggplant, and the rice cake/egg. I thought the rice cake looked underwhelming, but our entire group had a consensus and voted that as the top fave of the night. Everything was super tasty and we left happy and full and with leftovers! Super excited to return and to recommend to others. I look forward to come back to try some of the other items such as the "beef" noodle soup or the bun rieu or pho! I also appreciate that some of the dishes came with rice included -we actually ended up with too much rice, but perfect for leftovers the next day. Upon checking out, there was delicious thing by the cash register that was green and resembled a bundt cake in slices. It was labled mochi pandan, and it was AMAZING. so spongy, so delicious and a little sweet. Perfect end of the night that my buddy got one to go right after. It was made fresh and you can tell by how soft it was. I appreciate that this restaurant has vegetarian versions of common vietnamese and chinese dishes. They all were delicious and unique and did not feel too oily or heavy. They look and taste like meat and also the sauces were 100% on point. Thank you Happy Buddha!!

We were craving something that tasted like a home-cooked meal, and let's just say...rice is life! We ordered the Clay Pot Veggie Fish with a basket of white rice, and WOW. The savory sauce was packed with flavor, and the fresh crushed peppercorns added the perfect kick. It came with a fresh salad and pickled vegetables that balanced everything beautifully. We also ordered the Banh Ot Cha Lua, the rice paper rolls, and the vegan egg rolls. I loved that they served the egg rolls with lettuce and fresh mint for wrapping--exactly how I grew up eating them at my mom's house. That nostalgic touch instantly earned bonus points. What really stood out was the hospitality. When we mentioned it was our first visit and that we had driven all the way from Torrance, our host smiled and asked, "Would you like to hear our favorite dishes?" Umm...yes, please! That's the kind of genuine customer service that makes people feel like family instead of just another table. Everything arrived piping hot, fresh, and made with care. It was so good that before leaving, I ordered another Clay Pot Veggie Fish to go because I knew I'd be craving it later. Needless to say, the 50-minute drive home somehow felt a lot shorter with a happy stomach. We'll absolutely be back, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Thien Tam to anyone looking for authentic, flavorful Vietnamese vegetarian food.

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.

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.

This restaurant is difficult to get parking because it is located inside a small plaza on the corner of Valley and Garfield. Fortunately, I found a parking space there. The restaurant is not particularly large, But there are many customers dining there. We ordered Garlic Cucumber, Braised Pork Rice, Garlic Water Spinach, Braised Beef Noodles, Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs, Garlic Beef Cubes, and two Thai Milk Teas. I'm able to speak with the owner, who informs me that this restaurant does not use MSG or other ingredients. Everything is fresh and healthy. After tasting the food and the Braised Beef Noodles, I can tell it's really tasty and light, with no harsh components that make you thirsty and want to drink more water. So far, my family and I have really enjoyed the food here. Definitely will return and try other delicious foods next time.

Service is outstanding and very friendly, and the restroom is clean. Lots of free parking is available in the small lot outside. The restaurant is in a corner of the lot within unassuming outside exterior but very nice interior. The garlic cucumber was crunchy and light in marinade. I enjoyed the pig ear but prefer thicker cuts typically. It would be wonderful to come back to try other entrees.
