Tofu Vegan

Tofu Vegan is the specialist pick for fully plant-based Chinese, with chefs drawn from Sichuan, the Cantonese south and the northeastern Dongbei regions, plus a vegan dim sum offering. It runs four London sites - Islington, Spitalfields, Golders Green and Charlotte Street in Fitzrovia - with all-day non-stop service, reservations taken and walk-ins possible, though it is popular and often busy. The menu lists signatures such as sizzling tofu in house special sauce, oyster-mushroom bao, wontons in house sauce and a Mapo tofu hot pot, and reviewers widely praise its imitation-meat mastery. Pick it over Mildreds specifically when you want regional Chinese depth and dim sum rather than a broad global menu, and over the fine-dining picks when you want mid-range, casual value and all-day service rather than a fixed high-price tasting. No reliable official per-item pricing was available, so we describe it as mid-range and casual rather than quoting a figure. The trade-off is that this is casual dining, not fine-dining polish or a formal-occasion setting.
