Delightful food and an equally delightful staff! The atmosphere was incredibly calm and all the staff workers were very kind, warm, polite and helpful.
I ordered the (Vegan) General Tso’s Chicken & the Duck with spring rolls and dumplings. Portion sizes were quite generous, especially on the veggie side of things. Awesome bang for your buck.
Clean ingredients all around, nothing heavy. Distinct flavor while also being subtle and not overpowering. Unique hearty textures.
As a bonus, there’s a lot of reading material available if you want to boost your enlightenment education and the books are free if you’d like to take any readings with you.
As other reviews have stated, you do place your order with someone virtually, like a teams/zoom call, so be prepared for that.
All in all, A+ experience and I would definitely return here. Maybe the sweetest crew I’ve ever had the pleasure of interacting with. Always love having a serene dining experience with delicious, light food!

I ordered takeout online for lunch. It took around 30 minutes from when I placed my order to when it was ready.
It was a little confusing arriving at the restaurant because the employee isn’t there in person, but you talk to them through a screen. They do have tables and chairs, but it’s small and seems like more of a takeout place.
I ordered 2 appetizers to try: the Indian pancakes with curry sauce and the fries with kimchi and spicy mayo. The pancakes and curry sauce were good. It was like a paratha. The curry sauce was more liquidy than I expected, because I was imagining a thicker Indian curry from the title, but it was flavor-packed and tasty. The kimchi spicy mayo fries didn’t have kimchi from what I could tell, it just seemed like fries coated in a spicy aioli. But they were so delicious! Even with the sauce coating, the fries were still crispy and the sauce was a little sweet, a little spicy and a little savory. I’ll definitely get them again.
Finally I got the lunch special, which came with brown rice and hot and sour soup. I chose the curd with black bean sauce for my entree. The portion size was huge and everything tasted good.
Overall I felt like this place was a great value for the cost.

NAMASTE . AMITABA
I’ve been visiting & eating @ this AMAZING VEGAN ESTABLISHMENT/RESTAURANT for the past 4yrs. As a PROUD BORN VEGETARIAN, from GUYANA, (THANKS TO MY PARENTS), I’M EXTREMELY HAPPY FINDING THIS VEGAN ESTABLISHMENT, AS THE OWNER IS AMAZINGLY ADORABLE & HUMBLE….
WHILE THE FOODS ARE GREAT & DELICIOUS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND AMITABA VEGAN RESTAURANT. I RECENTLY BOUGHT FOODS, SAT & ATE THERE, AS I EXPERIENCED AMAZING SERVICES FILL WITH ADORABLE WARMTH FROM THE OWNER & CHEF.
SO WASTE NO TIME.
SHE FIRED THE BAD EMPLOYEE.

My lunch break is over. Also told her I went to try last Saturday to try the buffet but they were not serving said they stopped that weeks ago but it’s still on the website. Very very poor service don’t waste your time.

We came here after seeing a pop-up ad from Facebook so decided to give it a try. The store front had two stores, one on the left with a dining area and the right had the extra door for blocking the wind which should be the main entrance that wasn’t open which was strange. When we entered the dining room, there was no one there except for a virtual Maître d’ on the left which was a first for us. We had to show our vaccine cards to eat in the dining area. We ordered several dishes and waited a good amount of time before getting our orders. The cook brought out our dishes and said sorry for the long wait. The cedar fried rice which was advertised as a pyramid in one of the pictures came out flat and in a take out container. The food in general was delicious and at a very competitive price point compared to other vegetarian restaurants in the Queens area. If you pay by credit, expect a surcharge of $6. We paid cash and left a tip for the virtual service in the cash box by the Maître d’ who took the order. Also there were plenty of free books on a desk if you wanted to read up on Buddhism in English and Chinese.

Food was not good. My wontons were burnt, the bbq seitan didn’t taste good and was too sweet to be bbq, my chicken fried rice was dry and unflavored. The chicken pieces in it tasted rubbery. Also this isn’t a place to sit down bc the seating area isn’t very welcoming. I saw a bunch of dirty plates just sitting there when I walked in.

Delicious and healthy vegan cuisine. The owner practices what she sells (she’s a Buddhist vegan). Many of the dishes here are made from scratch: for example, their dumplings’ dough is house made. Their vegan duck appetizer has good flavour and a nice slightly chewy texture. Unlike some of the other Chinese vegetarian restaurants in NYC, this one seem to use little oil. I went with my mother for lunch and she really enjoyed their food also. Parking around the area is easy to find also.
