    Veggie Fun serves up fresh and delicious vegan Asian cuisine in a convenient downtown location! The service is always fast and the food is perfectly prepared. The vegetables are always especially fresh and flavorful, and entrees come with brown rice and a miso soup to start. Even as someone who eats seafood and poultry, I really enjoy coming to Veggie Fun!

    M5. Basil Soy Protein

    Such a great hidden gem! The food here is amazing and we came back for a second time to try something new. I tried both the basil and mango soy protein and both were great. I recommend the basil one a bit more though as it was the perfect amount of savory and spicy. It came with miso soup and rice too. The wine pours are generous and they have an extensive drink menu. The soy milk tea I got was a bit watery for my taste. Overall highly recommend this spot!

    By far the best vegan food we ever had! Chill vibes and good service ... So glad to see a vegan place with an inviting set up and serves genuine taste!

    Veggie Fun is a pan-asian vegan kosher restaurant in downtown Providence. I am not vegan, but I am always willing to have vegan food and have went to other vegan restaurants. When you walk in, there is a bar with seats in the middle, dining booths on the right, and seating on the left. We were seated at one of the booths and only one other booth was taken around 1:00pm on a Monday. You can see some wear and tear on the booth seats, but it is really nice and spacious inside. Lunch specials are available Monday to Friday until 3:00 pm, excluding holidays. They are all served with brown rice, miso soup and spring roll except for the noodle dishes (L13 and L14) which are served without brown rice. Lunch specials are $12.00. A list of homemade iced drinks are available as well. I had the Thai Iced-Tea and my husband had the Mango Green Tea. They were $5.00 each. The drinks were refreshing and pleasing. I had the Sweet and Sour Sesame Soy Protein lunch special and my husband had the General Tso's Soy Protein lunch special. We've always been a fan of seitan and really enjoyed our dishes. The sauce was very flavorful and tasty. I mixed some of the sauce with the brown rice to give the rice some flavor. The miso soup was very good, not overly salty. We were so full by the end of the meal. After ordering, drinks and food came out in no time. Service was alright. The lunch special is definitely worth it and looking forward to coming here next time.

    Very good food. Creative not greasy. Plenty of vegan protein choices. Excellwn ambiance

    Finding a Kosher plant-based restaurant that has absolutely delicious food was a highlight of my time on a quick trip through Providence. The ambience and service were excellent. The dining and bar areas are spacious and have vintage charm that matches the historic building, I liked the lighting, which was soft but you could easily read the menu. I was really surprised that it was not more crowded, but it seemed that most people ordered takeout and delivery. We first tried the fried Autumn Rolls first, which were crisp and flavorful and not greasy. We shared a few different main courses which were also all very good. It was my first time trying "spare ribs" (Smoked Seitan with green beans), and I was told by an omnivore dining with me that they were spot on. I really liked them and the accompanying green beans, which were very fresh, Everything else was also extremely tasty. They have an excellent tea selection- both hot and cold. The desserts sounded enticing but we did not have room to try them.

    Overall about 3.5 stars so I'll round up! I saw lemongrass soup and didn't read that it was hot and sour soup (one of my favorite soups but I was expecting something different)...the lemongrass was not very upfront but also, my bad for not reading that it was a hot and sour soup- pretty standard and ok for a typical hot and sour. The General Tso's Soy Protein was pretty tasty- I actually enjoyed the flavor and texture....it was not what I expected though. It didn't have the meat substitute texture of the chicken- it was just kind of it's own thing...and the flavor reminded me of something I can't quite put my finger on. Spring rolls were not very warm and nothing to write home about and Pad-Thai was a little lacking on flavors...fine but lacking the 'funk' I love from a good pad thai. Solid place if you are a vegan or have a vegan friend but not sure if I would go back on my own accord. Nice atmosphere/ambiance and good location.

    Yaki udon and A8. Vegetable Dumplings

    I don't typically eat vegetarian/vegan food, but I decided to order from Veggie Fun for an event I was hosting since a friend had said that their pricing was great! We got stir fry udon with tofu and veggie dumplings for about $110 for 14 people, which was more than enough! The veggie dumplings were actually quite good, and the stir fry udon was a bit soggy but had a nice, rich flavor. I would recommend ordering from here for larger events and if anyone in your party is vegetarian/vegan and wants asian food!

    The food did not disappoint! It came sizzling and hot, there's nothing that could have made the dish better, it was fantastic! The food was matched by the ambiance and the service as both were excellent, would definitely come back!

    I was in Boston having a medical test and found out that the nurse and I were both from the Providence area and both vegetarians! She recommended Veggie Fun and my husband and I had lunch there on the way home. It's always so nice to be able to look at the whole menu instead of the 4-5 vegetarian dishes, usually pasta. They have a large lunch special menu until 3p for $12, so we ordered from that. Your entree comes with miso soup, a small spring roll, and brown rice. We both had seitan dishes; his was Spare Ribs (yummy sauce!) with green beans, and I forget what mine was called but it was delicious! It came with sliced carrots. We were pleasantly full, they were lunch-sized portions. One waiter was serving the room and he was very gracious. The room was beautiful with lots of twinkly lights that must be gorgeous at night! We'll return!

    I haven't been here in a bit. I was meeting my son for his 20th birthday. We use to come here…read moreall the time when he was younger so we were both excited to come here for dinner! On to the review! party of 6 and we must have been lucky because there was a table ready and didn't even have to wait( place was busy). We were waited on right away and got our drink orders in and with in minutes we had them and we all know what we wanted already so we put our orders in and the server asked if we wanted our food together or just bring it out as it gets done. We all agreed as it gets done and before you know it fresh pipping hot food starts arriving to our table. While waiting for the food and talking with the family I was able to get a good vibe check of the ambiance of this place and I must say I good really great vibe and felt like was just a bunch of happy people eating and having greats convos with one another. :-) On to the food! Nachos - Super awesome and crunchy and fresh. not soggy at all and a huge portion for 15 bucks! Margherita pizza - Super fresh piping hot pizza with fresh tomatoes and Basil! Sriracha Buffalo Cauliflower - This is where things started to turn inconsistent. let's see we had three orders of these and pretty much all three orders looked different, tasted different and some of the bigger pieces were not cooked through. All three of us did share each others to compare tastes. Reggie's Raw Heaven Salad - I did not eat the salad but I looked at it and asked the couple how they liked it and they said it was awesome! Note to self to try next time! Sweet Potato Wedges - Hot and fresh but again with the inconsistency, some were over cooked almost burnt and some were a little under cooked but for the most part they were nice and crunchy on the outside and nice and pillowy soft on the inside. Overall - I do love this place, I can't wait to come back and see if the food can be a little more consistent.. This place has really great vibe to it and I do recommend it for a good vegan food spot!

We were a little nervous to try it since it is known for being upscale and expensive, and we did our research beforehand. We are giving Persimmon five stars, but no place is perfect. The restaurant was clean and the bartenders were extremely well trained, personable, and attentive even on a busy night. The food was exceptional. Although the New Year's Eve menu was limited, every course exceeded our expectations. We shared appetizers, entrées, and dessert, and even asked for cannolis that were not on the bar menu. The bartender made it happen, which made the night feel extra special. It is definitely pricey, and the portions were smaller than expected, so most dishes are not ideal for splitting. That said, the staff was wonderful and the food was worth it. We would absolutely recommend Persimmon for a special occasion. Just go in knowing you are there for the experience, and you probably will not be leaving with leftovers!

    I hate to give this place 4 stars because it was more than good but thinking about it, I don't…read morethink this place was "great" either. I think there is potential there but it doesn't hit the mark and when Michelin does come to Rhode Island, they are going to have to step their game up if they want more than 1. We were sat in the back dining area, near the kitchen, which I love because I love watching people work in an open kitchen. You'd think I'd hate it because it makes me think of my own job but I think that's why I like watching so much, to see how other people work. Our server was casual and relaxed and very personable. She gave good recommendations and really made us feel comfortable and engaged. The problem was service was slow. There were so many servers standing around and chitchatting (including ours) but we never got a water refill and we didn't order as many drinks as we would have because she didn't come by very often. There really was a lot of standing by the kitchen and not touching tables. Also, food service was slow. It took 20 min between first set of cocktails coming and the apps. Second course came 30 min after the first. Our main, which was supposed to come with the second course came 10 min after the pastas. Dessert, which we pre-ordered, came 30 min after the steak. This was a long meal for no reason. The food was excellent. The tartare, the black pasta, the agnolotti and the steak were absolute perfection and tasted amazing. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the dessert. Which is so disappointing given that I am a pastry chef and that we had to pre-order it. It just wasn't good and didn't live up to the rest of the food. The pastry wasn't cooked all the way so it was soggy and a bit raw, the cherries were flavorless. And it was ugly. The pastry person needs to practice making quenelles. It also took forever to get the check. We waited 20 min after the dessert to be able to leave.

Loved the atmosphere and the place was spotless. One of the waitresses seated us asked us if we'd like a drink and pickles with coleslaw. We said yes pickles were great. Coleslaw was very vinegary. Was not a fan of that. We both ordered half a pound of pastrami sandwiches with Swiss cheese and mustard. The pastrami was very lean and sliced very thin and that was good. But I found the pastrami lacking in flavor. I think I was expecting pastrami like they sell at Katz's deli or the old now closed Carnegie's in New York. Would come back to try other things.

    I really wanted to like Maven's. With all the hype surrounding this place, I expected something…read morespecial. After several visits, though, I'd describe it with one word: meh. To be clear, the food isn't bad. It's perfectly edible. The problem is that it's also remarkably average, especially considering the prices they're charging. Nothing I've ordered has made me think, "I can't wait to come back for that." It's just...fine. We actually visited during opening weekend, and it was a bit of a mess. They ran out of pastrami, which is a pretty big problem for a deli that was generating so much excitement. I gave them the benefit of the doubt because opening weekends can be chaotic. Since then, we've been back several times hoping things would improve, but the experience has been largely the same. The biggest issue, aside from the food being average, is the service. It's consistently slow. I can understand waiting when a restaurant is packed, but we've experienced long waits even when there were very few customers inside. It feels like everything moves at half speed, and that's been true on multiple visits. I also think they're trying a little too hard to be Katz's Delicatessen. That's an incredibly high bar, and instead of trying to recreate that experience, I'd rather see them focus on becoming the best version of themselves. Right now, it feels like the ambition exceeds the execution. The one thing I will gladly compliment is the bagels. They've been excellent every time we've ordered them, and honestly, they're probably the strongest item on the menu. I do think there's plenty of room for improvement, which is why I'm giving two stars instead of one. There's clearly potential here, and I genuinely hope they find their footing because I'd love to have another great deli in the area. We'll probably give them another chance down the road, and I hope I can come back and update this review with a much more positive experience.

The NY strip ordered medium was hard to eat. The middle was moderately better but was able to eat about a third of it. Seasoning forward and very tough/chewy. The baked potato wasn't fully cooked so basically ignored that. Also at my table was the lamb and the pork chop, and both were said to be very good. Other adult table was a mix of steaks, sides, and salads with steak toppers. Mixed reviews over there but more over seasoning comments. A few people got dessert and they looked good. Friendly but slow, expensive but mediocre, as tough to go back as the chew on the steak.
