There were so many options and something for everybody. My friend wanted something ultra healthy with no oil, and he had steamed kale, steamed veggies, steamed tofu and brown rice. I had spicy noodle soup. It was all delicious, was served really quickly, and the staff were lovely.

Merit was a great place as a full vegan restaurant. If you have any friends with those dietary restrictions, do not hesitate to take them here.Heck, even if they don't have the dietary restrictions, take them here anyways. It's great food at great prices. The establishment itself is not as maintained but the place definitely has its charm. The portions are filling, though you must buy the rice separately, they do give you a well above average portion.

You don't need to be vegan to enjoy Merit. The food is delicious and the menu variety is large. Being new to veganism, I was pleased that everything on the menu is vegan. We had the dish called "Queens" which had a soy protein "meat" on fresh spinach and caramelized onions in a savory sauce. It was very tasty. The texture is similar enough to meat for my tastes. I don't know how a meat lover would feel. The lotus salad was lovely, tangy and crunchy. The curry with pumpkin was good. There was a bit too much sauce for me. I liked the flavor but will probably pick something different next time. The pumpkin cheesecake was delicious and lighter than the dense New York cheesecake made with cream cheese. I consider this lighter version a plus, much nicer. I'm excited to go back and try more items on the menu. The wait staff were friendly. The atmosphere is casual.Vegetarian options: All vegan! You can't go wrong.

Editing my previous review: This has been my favorite restaurant but to my surprise and shock, we found a worm on our spring roll yesterday. I had already eaten a few pieces and we sent it back. I came back home and had a bad stomach ache later. Unfortunately, I won’t be going back any time soon.Old review:Hands down one of best vegan food places. They’re kind and service is great. Thank you for fresh, hot food on a cold night. ?

So many delicious options here! I love the sides options too - I balanced out my noodle dish with some steamed broccoli and felt extra virtuous!
Delicious mix of veggies and some meat dishes. Combination of Chinese and Southeast Asian.
