Mint Basil Cherry Ave - San Jose

Your lunch buffet is $18 and is offered on weekdays (minus Tuesday when they are closed from 12:00 13:30). It is a pretty small window of opportunity so you need to enjoy this vegan buffet. As far as I know, this is the only real vegan buffet in the South Bay. Some of the menu options that turned out: spring and summer rolls (real tasty and peanut sauce is available Fried Brötchen, wontons and fish cake steamed veggie baos (loved this! Stir fried spicy beef (your typical soy/snake meat in a delicious sauce yellow vegetables curry (big taste and went well with white rice sweet acidic meatballs garlic noodles (that was one of my favorites! Steamed Bokchoy and Flower Flower Mix (easy, but good for more vegetables For the variety, I'd say it's definitely worth it. There are many mock meat options, so I wouldn't say it's absolutely the healthiest meal, but you can't expect an AYCE buffet lol. If you are with skeptics of vegan food, this is a smearing place to take them. Make sure to go hungry so you can go for an extra round or two. Now that I had this, I think I prefer to share some dishes with friends, but if you eat yourself or with maybe another person, this is a fantastic way to try a variety of their foods.

I asked for the peaceful curry with brown rice. The guy who took my order said that the vegetarian chicken was not vegan, so he will only replace it for tofu. I called back because I found the vegetarian chicken in my plate after I had eaten a piece. The guy said the kitchen messed up and I asked why it wasn't vegan (it felt like eating a chicken body part), and he said "because it has milk". Why is it considered desirable or necessary for a mother cow to be used in this way? Make all ingredients vegan! It's not that hard! This is so disturbing and during my lunch break!

First time at this restaurant and the food was delicious. Nice, quiet ambiance. Good location with plenty of parking. Would definitely return and want to add this to my regular restaurants visited

This restaurant offers a wide variety of food options. While the prices are on the higher side at $10, the portions are quite generous so it's a good place to share a meal with someone else. I tried the fried tofu appetizer which was perfectly crispy and hot. My friend ordered the Pad Thai which we shared and it was quite delicious.

I have visited this restaurant twice and tried a variety of dishes including salad packs, chow fun, pad thai, curry, tofu rolls, Malaysian noodles, hainan chicken, and pho. The pad thai was disappointing, but my favorite dish was the Malaysian noodles. Overall, I would give this place a rating of 3 out of 5.
