Chun Vegetarian

Chun Vegetarian in Brooklyn has become one of my favorite spots, and one of the main reasons for that is their Buddha Bowl. It’s one of those dishes that I can keep coming back to without ever getting tired of it. Whenever I want something that’s hearty, fresh, and still feels good for my body, this is exactly what I order. The Buddha Bowl is a colorful mix that hits all the right notes. It usually comes packed with kale, spinach, sweet potato, avocado, carrots, cherry tomatoes, quinoa, and fresh strawberries, and everything is tossed together with this delicious house-made sauce that I can never get enough of. The sauce is creamy, tangy, and has just the right amount of flavor to coat the ingredients without overpowering them. One container isn’t nearly enough for a bowl this size, so I always ask for extra, and they’re kind enough to give it to me with no extra charge. That’s huge, because the sauce really ties everything together and makes every bite hit. What makes this bowl substantial is the sweet potato. It’s hearty, filling, and gives the whole dish that extra comfort factor. The sweet potato adds a natural sweetness that balances the leafy greens and makes the bowl feel complete. The avocado brings a creamy texture that smooths out the crunch from the kale and carrots, while the spinach keeps it fresh and light. The cherry tomatoes are juicy and bright, the carrots add crispness, and the strawberries bring those bursts of tart sweetness that make the whole thing unique. The quinoa is in there too, but it’s really the sweet potato that carries the weight and turns this into a meal that keeps you full. The best part about this dish is how balanced it feels. You’ve got grains, greens, veggies, fruit, and healthy fats all in one box, and nothing feels like an afterthought. It’s hearty without being heavy, and nourishing without sacrificing flavor. There are plenty of places that put together “healthy bowls” that taste bland or boring, but Chun makes something that actually feels satisfying and delicious every single time. The atmosphere at Chun Vegetarian matches the food: simple, clean, and welcoming. The staff are always kind and make the experience easy. It feels like a neighborhood spot where they really care about what they’re serving and about keeping things consistent. Whether I’ve ordered it to-go or eaten in, the quality has always been reliable. At the end of the day, this Buddha Bowl is one of my go-to meals in Brooklyn. Between the hearty sweet potato, the fresh greens, the avocado, the strawberries, and that amazing sauce that they happily give extra of at no charge, it’s become a staple for me. Whenever I want a bowl that feels both nourishing and indulgent, Chun Vegetarian is the first place I think of.

We got noodles, ice cream, and smoothie. It was amazing and fresh. It was so delicious and perfectly cooked. The food came out really fast and the serving was perfect size.

The boneless ribs were the best thing I had so far. I tried the orange chicken and it tasted very orange-y and hard to chew. I also had the scallion pancake and it tastes good with the sauce they give you for it. The steak and cheese taste like a philly cheese steak and it was pretty good too. Give this place a try 😋

The only reason I took a star off is because they used too many chilies. I tried two different dishes on two separate visits. I love spice but it overpowered the main dish. I will ask them to cut back next time because I'm not trying to have indigestion. Otherwise everything was great.

They’ve somehow managed to deliver our food in 12 minutes. I don’t know what kind of miracle coworkers they have at the store but I am dumbfounded at how amazing this is. It would be a disservice that if you want any takeout and Chun vegetarian is not your first choice. May God have mercy on your soul.

Chun Vegetarian is my Mecca. My North Star. I love Chun's dishes more than anything as someone with a plant-based diet, but my meat-loving friends also seriously adore Chun for the flavors, textures, portions, and prices, and they order from there on their own. The food is spectacular, and the portions are phenomenal. My go-tos are the sweet Thai basil protein extra spicy (must try), general tso chicken, and sesame chicken, but everything I've tried is great. Love the udon, pineapple fried rice, and carrot cake. Please never change, Chun, we love you!! And if you're hesitant about ordering from here, don't be, it really is THAT good.

My go-to place for Chinese food in the neighborhood that just happens to be vegetarian. I’ve been coming here for the past 3 years now and they are always amazing - consistent, super fresh, and clean. Never bland and you can really taste the quality in the ingredients! They’re also really nice. My faves are the vegan chicken nuggets, the salt & pepper mushrooms, wonton soup (green wontons and veggies) and the bok choy.

Absolutely authentic Chinese vegan food. They use soy to make mock meats the same way that you'd find at a Vegetarian restaurant near a Buddhist temple in Beijing. Blows the stuff that Impossible Foods makes out of the water. (As it should, since the Chinese have been making mock meats for the better part of a millennium.) Also, the mapo tofu is the best that I've had in America to date. But a warning for for mapo purists: I'm not a numbing spice guy, so their version why he uses chilis to bring the heat is great for me, but it could disappoint anyone who may have fallen in love with the dish in Sichuan.

This food is soooo damn good. Just typed in "vegetarian" on here and this was on of the options. Everything I ordered was a la carte, and it is so much food for one person. The oyster mushrooms were top tier, couldn't tell me I wasn't eating salt n pepper wings! And it was incredibly crispy and seasoned well. The veggies were good and came with a side of rice. I see the rice being a great vehicle to soak up the sauce but not really needed. I ordered online and can't speak to the rest, but I would definitely order again!

The picture doesn't do it justice - it's definitely a healthier option it's a lighter sauce on the sesame which I did not mind I actually loved it paired with fluffy delish brown rice - added some of my own spicy Asian garlic sauce. And we got the fried oyster mushroom friend in batter but you tasted the mushroom and it's paired with a side of very spicy peppers you can avoid those if spice isn't your thing also honey mustard was on the side and it definitely paired well!

Wow my new lunch take out spot! Such a good deal for $8! Called at 11:45am for takeout and picked up 15 min later. I got the sesame "chicken" with brown rice and a spring roll. Everything was solid, flavors were good. I wish the chicken was a little softer and that there was more broccoli, but not a big problem. Will definitely try the other specials and soup next time! They have super limited seating indoors (1 or 2 tables?) so definitely better for takeout.

Chun Vegetarian is an eatery that we have visited many times as our work environment has been relocated. It is proudly stated on their to-go menu brochures that they use organic fruits & vegetables and I have had nothing but delightful vegetarian dishes that always taste fresh. It is on Nostrand Avenue close to Footprints Cafe (Home of Rasta Pasta), Nostrand Avenue Pizza (have some of the best burgers I have ever tasted) and near a variety of stores, cafes and shops. There are seats to sit in while you wait for your to-go order and you are able to observe the hardworking staff prepare the dishes. The staffperson taking the orders is polite, patient and courteous. It is a very clean and neat establishment. Chun Vegetarian has Starters that includes Crispy Nuggets (made w/ Soy Chicken), Scallion Pancakes, Vegetable Roast Duck, (made w/ pressed bean curd), etc. They also create Soups, Sides, Salads, Vegetables Dishes,, Rice Dishes, Noodle Dishes, Main Dishes, Sandwiches that include their Beyond Burger & Chicken + Beef Sandwiches (created w/ Seasonal Greens + Avocado), Desserts that include Soy Ice Cream, Soy Shakes & Vegan Cakes, Juices & Smoothies. The Lunch Specials at Chun Vegetarian are near and dear to my heart & stomach (lol) and we have had them numerous times. The Lunch Specials ($8) are available from 12pm-4pm and they are the following: Mango Soy Protein Chicken Terriyaki Chicken Broccoli Curry Chicken Sesame Chicken General Tso's Chicken Tangerine Beef Boneless Rib Sauteed Mixed Vegetables Tofu w/ Mixed Vegetables One can choose to have their lunch entree combo served w/ Brown Rice or White Rice and either Miso Soup or Hot & Sour Soup or a Spring Roll. The Chicken Terriyaki, Sesame Chicken and the Sauteed Mixed Vegetable Lunch Entrees are absolutely delicious! I have had Brown Rice everytime and both the Miso Soup and Spring Rolls are fabulous. It is nice to patron an establishment that has great quality dishes and it is a win-win to be able to have that for lunch for $8 which is a great price.

Lets bring back cheap and delicious take out food! Not a vegan but incredibly good selection for my vegans/vegetarians. They are have a very quick delivery time. They are always punctual. The scallion pancakes are one of my favorite. Fried to perfection and not overly greasy. I had their orange beef which had great flavor but a tad chewy. Happy to add them to my takeout roster.

Best veg Chinese in Bedstuy/Crown Heights. We order from here all the time. Both my vegan and omnivore friends agree it's awesome.

Good food serviced quickly. Lots of options. Crispy nuggets, also salt m pepper chicken tenders, green veggies are all good. It's all vegan.

We were looking for vegetarian options and we found this place through seamless or the like and decided to place an order. I have to day, one of the best places for "chicken", "duck", "beef". While not exactly the same, the texture and flavors were amazing. Nothing was overly salty or sweet. For food to spice up your night, this is it! My favorite is the eggplant but you really can't go wrong with the other options either.

After having come off nearly an entire day's worth of traveling, I needed something to tide me for over for ~2 days. I rarely order and prefer to cook at home but have always had success with vegan/vegetarian Chinese takeout in Brooklyn so I decided to try this place out since I moved to my new place in January and it wasn't far from where I live. I ordered the cookies & cream soy milkshake, scallion pancakes, beef broccoli + brown rice, and large hot & sour soup - all of which were so delicious and affordable! I love that the dipping sauces for the scallion pancakes were flavorful and spicy too. Delivery was quick and since I live 2 miles away it was free but even 2+ miles it's just a $2 charge which feels a lot more affordable than a lot of delivery apps. They came pretty quickly and it was all very well-packaged with friendly service. You can really tell they work hard and put in quality and effort to what they do! Highly recommend.

Amazing food, great prices, you can't go wrong! Very delicious and kind and patient staff. A gem in Crown Heights!

Good little hole in the wall restaurant that is perfect for a quick vegan lunch. I've only ever ordered take away from here. But each time the food was ready quickly. They give great portions and the food is quite tasty! Definitely recommend.

The food is awesome,howeverSometimes I feel like they're afraid of black ppl.,and can be stingy with the sauce the sweet chili to be exact,also I ordered something from the lunch special around 3:45 PM right before it ends, and I got there little after four and they told me my order was never placed,so before you order, make sure you pay

I had a taste for sesame "chicken" without all that extra doughy stuff and I remembered seeing this spot from the summer. It was a welcome surprise for weekend lunch specials. The ambiance is what makes this a great place. Simple, clean, modern decor, with calm contemporary music and friendly employees. The food itself was okay, spring roll was more of a egg roll hybrid with a slightly sour flavor of old cabbage. Move on to the entree, the "chicken" was a old school version of well seasoned and sauced, heavy, fake meat. I think I'll try something else next time.

Simply delish food coupled with polite customer service, truly have never had a bad experience

I ordered delivery through the Seamless app for dinner last night. The food is pretty tasty and clean. I ordered the hot and sour soup, beef with broccoli and the diced vegetable fried rice. All of it was tasty although the fried rice needed a little pep so I added some white pepper to it and it was perfect! I definitely recommend this place if you're in the mood for some Chinese food. The quality of the vegetables were so good. Reminds me of the produce I used to get when I lived in Los Angeles. Delivery was quick and the delivery guy was kind with no attitude. Great Job Chun Vegetarian!

SO delicious and takeout was quick and the staff were very friendly. I got sesame "chicken" and veggie fried rice and they were both delicious and tasted so fresh. The serving sizes are also generous (the entree and rice make about 2-3 meals if not more) so the prices feel very fair/affordable for the amount and quality. The restaurant is also clean and stylish so I look forward to dining in. This is a great place for delicious and plant-based food, can't wait to try more of the menu.

Everything is so good here. It's unreal. I might be biased because I'm vegan, but this is definitely one of the best Chinese restaurants I've ever eaten from. Veggie lo mein, orange tangerine chicken, sesame chicken, scallion pancakes, carrot cake and chocolate cake were all delicious. I mean just so good. Zero guilt too. The restaurant forgot to send over our chocolate cake, so they sent over the chocolate cake and a complimentary slice of raspberry vanilla (which is for tomorrow's dessert). Very kind owner and very delicious food. Would highly recommend.

They have super affordable juice as well! Like $6.50 for what my bodega charges $12. And don't sleep on their lunch specials. Easily the most affordable fast tasty food on the block. And all the employees are super nice.

I got the vegetable dumplings and Lo Mein. I liked the dumplings but the Lo Mein was a little bland for me tbh. This place is great if you want a quick delivery with cheap food.

Affordable ALL VEGAN place. Lovely place and nice staff. Vegan neighborhood staple for me. Amazing lunch special. (-:

This will definitely be my go-to Chinese delivery place. Flavors are amazing, no too greasy, so many options for vegetarians. Delivery is fast and friendly. Can't wait to try everything on the menu.

Food is amazing. Can't go wrong. Quick turnaround on orders and service is always excellent.

I think it's really cool to see Chinese vegetarian fare making a presence in Brooklyn. While I may be a regular carnivore, I can appreciate changing things up from time to time. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but my favorite is the "beef" becuase it's the closest in terms of texture. My usual order is a beef dish along with a fried rice if I feel like treating myself (heh) since proteins come with rice anyway. The proteins aren't smothered in sauces like your typical Chinese fare, but I guess that's consistent with the "healthier" approach. The place is a common take-out spot but there are a couple tables inside if you're just in the neighborhood and looking for a healthier option for lunch/dinner. Overall, I'm a fan! PS - There is a minimum credit card payment amount of $10.

This young lady or better yet the tyrant who was spoke to my father-in-law was extremely disrespectful to my father-in-las who came in to order red quinoa. She was visibly upset and instead of taking it out on the person who caused her her distress or better yet talk it out with them, she decided to talk nasty to my father-in-law. I kindly suggest that you don't go there. You will be treated like scum. And consider the fact that if they talk to nasty and they are prepare your food, you can be sure it will not be done with care. DO NOT GO THERE!!!

Ive ordered delivery and pickup! Food is standard vegetarian Chinese. Staff is always professional and proficient in taking orders. The inside is very clean with an open kitchen concept. I highly recommend ordering takeout from here if your obsessively clean like me! I love the spring rolls, scallion pancake, General tsao and surprisingly the sweet and sour chicken tastes exactly like chicken. I've never been a fan of chicken vegetarian or not but this chicken is spot on. The delivery fee is $3 to my house now which sucks but overall great spot!

Happy to be in the area during Lunch time. Nice clean welcoming service was great. Food was fresh and tasty. The protein fried rice delicious . Will surly visit again..

So far I've ordered the Wonton Soup, Potato fries, Vegetable Lo Mein (with "chicken"), Carrot Cake and Death By Chocolate Cake. I'm happy, the delivery time is good and the food is as well. I really appreciate places like this especially now that Winter is coming. I'm officially a regular customer. Btw, I ordered through Yelp and they use GrubHub. I paid with Apple Pay.

This is some DAMN good clean vegan Chinese food! I ordered the eggplant delight and tofu in garlic sauce for dinner. The portions are generous and you can tell they use quality ingredients. Definitely a good place if you're a health conscious person. The food is very reminiscent of the quality I would get in California when it comes to Chinese food. I ordered for delivery and it was here very quick and the delivery person was very kind. Definitely will eat here again!!!

Ordered delivery and they were very accommodating to my requests-I got the sauteed mixed vegetables (prepared without soy sauce) with brown rice + an order of spring rolls. The entree was instead cooked in a light garlicky sauce and was delivered in what felt like 20 mins. Looking forward to dining in and trying their lunch special, the salads and the fabulous-looking Eggplant Delight.

My goto order is the Buddha Bowl and the blueberry/strawberry/banana smoothie, though I just recently tried the sandwich and really liked it too. Another item i recently tried was the chocolate cake and it was very nice.

When it's good it's really great - and when it's not it's mediocre. Have ordered maybe half a dozen times and the "Vegetable Roast Duck" was really good half of those times, but many times it was the wrong texture or not seasoned well. The chicken and broccoli has been really good, but also not so great. I have enjoyed the Singapore Mai Fun, but once it wasn't really done properly In short, someone needs to ensure consistency there, and they would be a top choice for vegan Chinese.

Ordered from here before. Eggplant delight and general Tso's chicken. I was so happy to hear it was fully vegetarian and not too far from me. The Eggplant was soooo good. Has a bit of a kick and a great sauce. Does not come with rice just as an FYI. The General Tso's was good. Not what most people are use to as there is no gravy! But the chicken has so much flavor that it's not missed. Also because I was sharing this with the eggplant and the sauce from that complemented so well. Definitely worth checking out! I'm ordering again and will update once I finish my food!

Stopped it amidst some holiday shopping because I was starving and my ears always perk up when I find a new veggie place. Everything in the restaurant is vegan, and the lunch special I got (sesame chicken with brown rice and miso soup) was wonderful. I'm a long time vegetarian who often feels dejected for a lack of take-out Chinese food options and this absolutely hit the spot. I'll definitely be back to try their General Tso's chicken, their soy-based milkshakes, and their imitation duck.

First found it on seamless ordered in a few times & it was really good so now this is my go to when I want fairly priced vegan food. The first time I ordered I got beef & broccoli & spring rolls that was good I've also ad the chicken & broccoli & the veggie lo mein both also really good!!

Nice vegetarian Chinese food option. The spot is clean and everything is made fresh. Definitely take advantage of the $7.50 lunch special. I got the general tso special which came with rice and a spring roll. I added on steamed broccoli for 5 dollars. It's not as greasy as normal Chinese food places and the "chicken" wasn't saucy, but the flavors were there. Affordable and I would try it again when I'm in the area.

The food is AMAZING - the 1 star is for the delivery guy's total rudeness. He rang the buzzer and I kept buzzing him in but he wouldn't open the door? Just continually buzzed so eventually I was like, ok what the heck? So I go downstairs and said "I tried to buzz you up" and he scoffed, looked at the receipt and said "I'm not going upstairs for 98 cents" (this restaurant has no delivery minimum on Seamless so I just got a soup, hence making the tip automatically small because the soup is cheap). I was shocked...if the delivery guys don't want to deliver small orders maybe consider making a delivery minimum or telling your delivery guys to lose the attitude.

@chunvegetarian please fix the mess going on in the kitchen. How do you come from the back of the restaurant in an open kitchen, you don't wash your hands and or wear gloves, pick your teeth and proceed to touch raw food and start making my order? Disgusting to say the least. I struggled with coming back today after a friend mentioned a similar unsanitary situation. I'm never coming back.

So good!!!! I had the sesame "chicken" with white rice and the scallion pancakes. My non vegetarian friends had a bite and thought jt was good too!!!

I'm so happy that we have this in the neighborhood! Food is always delicious and is delivered quickly. I've ordered the noodle soup, chicken nuggets, Buddha salad and a few other dishes. Always on point!

They basically copied from "vegetarian palate " in Washington ave. Chun food is expensive and you get a little food.

I don't think I've ever left a review on a restaurant before, but I had to for this one. Chun is so flavorful and delicious. My friends and I have probably had it 1000 times in the last couple of years (Ok, exaggeration, but a lot). The chef's special with tofu, veggies and flavor are unparalleled. Salt and Pepper veggie nuggets, Amazing with the mustard dipping sauce and the egg roll/spring rolls, incredible! Do yourself a favor and order it, this place must stick around!

Delivery was quick and smooth, however the food was so-so. Got the dumplings, hot sour soup, salt pepper mushrooms, and Singapore noodles. Everything was somewhat bland and a little flat in flavor. Nothing is terrible, but there are just better vegetarian Chinese food options out there.

Super clean and healthy food. Love the tofu options; amazing portions! Will be back for more .

Decided to try their sesame chicken and I like their food so much that I would definitely give this restaurant another try! The only thing that I wish is that they would give me more white rice. Other

Mango Soy Protein has me coming back to try new dishes here! Any meal (especially with brown rice) is appetizing and filling, without your pants bursting at the seams. Plus, there's enough leftover for a small snack the next day! Staff is friendly, facilities are clean and inviting. A great addition to Bed Stuy/Crown Heights community.

This place is fantastic. We order it for delivery pretty regularly. It is nice having a "just vegetables" choice from a vegan restaurant. They also have a great selection of tofu and seitan dishes.

Their vegan cakes are my favorite! Always super quick and friendly! Always a great way to satisfy my sweet tooth!

I've never in my life have had vegetarian/vegan Chinese, and when I say this was beyond amazing, I literally couldn't distinguish the amazing textures and taste. I think this Chinese vegan restaurant is #1 for me and I will be coming back, especially because I live down the street

Always early. Always hot. The faux vege meats are great and there's some really nice dishes. 10/10 never had a bad experience and I order pretty much weekly!
