It's just okay - Edit
It's cheap and good food but nothing spectacular, I must admit. I don't find the staff all that friendly.

Greasy Overabundance of Cheap Lunch - Edit
This place is my favourite place for lunch, 2 sides rice is already very fulfilling. Try their mock meats, super delicious!
Read moreBeware of the greasiness though... choose 1 stir fry and 1 soupy/curry side to balance it out. Portion is humongous, bring lunchbox to bring back half for takeaway dinner. (That 12$ goes a looooong way).
Dont forget to drink water :>
Pros: Cheap, fulfilling, delicious
Cons: Greasy

Blooming Good - Edit
Had a takeaway eggplant tomato courgette with stir fied noodles. $10:00. It was very nice. Got the Happy Cow sticker.
Read moreWide variety of food to pick from have either rice or noodles.
I revisited Blooming Good food yesterday with a fellow vegan, we both enjoyed the fare on offer. I had noodles with tempeh and aubergines. Lovely, my friend had fried rice and lemon grass and fresh brocolli and pumpkin. Both dishes $12.00 each. Got the Happy Cow sticker. Please vegans support these vegan places.
Revisited this great eatery at its newest address. Just moved up King Street towards Erko.
We had a plate of noodles with fried tempeh and veggies, stir fried veggies and tofu and curry sauce. The other plate had stir fried rice and lemon grass and rice. Both dishes were delicious.
Got HC sticker.

The buffet style is very cheep. You choose between different styles of meat alternatives and sides. Although it is very greasy and doesn’t have too much taste.

I highly recommend it. - Edit
I haven't been there in a while because I no longer live in Sydney, but I love this restaurant. Not only is the food cheap and delicious, but it has such a good vibe. My favourite dishes are the mock duck, the crispy soy, the eggplant and the spring rolls.

Lots of vegan choices, buffet - Edit
Food is a 7/10, price is reasonable. Some doubts about food hygiene but otherwise a fairly good choice. If it was a bit cheaper I’d likely eat here quite often.

Great buffet deals.
Read moreA La Carte options available.
The crispy soy strips and spring rolls would have to be the most popular from the buffet.
Remember to take cash!

Ok, but there are tastier options out there - Edit
Ordered the duck curry at this place and whilst the meal was OK, I felt it to be somewhat lacking. It may have something to do with their motto of not adding onions or garlic to any of their food. I also tried to mock sugarcane prawn, which was almost cold when i received it.

good vegan fare - Edit
I ordered a jungle curry from the menu with steamed rice. Tasted good. Niki had the crispy soy and pumpkin with rice from the ready made stuff you'll see as you walk in.
Read moreOrdering from the menu seems a little more expensive but they are making it for you fresh. Judging by other peoples plates they seem to be very generous with the portions you receive from the ready made stuff which is cheaper too. If you're not into the mock meats and fried stuff then definitely go for something on the menu and order some steamed rice to go with it.
Good place to come to every now and again. Check out my video review on my youtube (see my profile).
Pros: good food, good price

I really like this little place, it's friendly, fast, cheap and tasty. They have a bunch of curries and stir-fries all ready to go, with white or brown rice or noodles. As well as lots of dumplings - sweet and savoury. Recommended!

Make sure you get the satay! - Edit
I used to eat here when it was still "Green Palace, Thai"... The name has changed, but the food has not.

decent value - Edit
you get a good amount of food for the price you pay. sydney is ridiculously expensive, but i felt like this restaurant was worth what you pay. maybe not the best food in town, but quick and decent is sometimes all one needs.

OK for a quick and easy meal - Edit
As far as Thai food goes, this place isn't very good... It's rather bland in terms of spiciness... and when I eat Thai I want something that excites the palate. That said, I put this place in a category of it's own, it's quick, cheapish, and filling and of course vegan!
Read moreThere is an a la carte menu here but most of their business is via the bain-marie, which features around 8 dishes, all of which come with fried rice, noodles or plain rice.
Pros: Value
Cons: lacks spicy flavour
