Tofu

Absolutely delicious food, I have never ordered something I didn’t like. They have such a range from burgers to pho, I can’t recommend this place enough. Food always comes out fresh and fast. Service is great. Their mock meats are seasoned and prepared expertly. They have a lunch special from 11am - 2pm that is absolute deal. Definitely check this place out.

We went with friends and we all shared and ordered several dishes: garlic noodles, salt and pepper shrimp, pad thai, sweet and sour chicken, salted pepper crispy tofu, da bomb, sweet pork barbecue spring roll, crispy mushroom, Thai teas, ice coffee, chocolate cake, lemon cake, and tiramisu cake. We had no expectations and surprisingly, each dish tasted unique in its own way. With vegan cafes, it’s difficult to produce each dish with its own flavor using the same limited meat substitutes available, but this restaurant did a fantastic job of bringing out the unique flavor of each plate. The desserts were superb and our favorite was the chocolate cake. Tiramisu cake was a bit sour and the Thai teas weren’t that sweet, but overall the food was great and I would highly recommend to anyone.

Chinese/Vietnamese inspired dishes. We ordered and paid at the counter. We got the shaking soy beef lunch special which was on the limited lunch menu that came with rice and a drink for $13.50. The soy beef is supposed resemble shaking beef but the sauce was fish sauce and vinegar over a bed of salad. It was dry and lacked sauce. I had to ask for extra side of sauce to drench it.

Also got tofu eggplant clay pot ($13.50) and soy fish clay pot ($13.50). Both clay pot had distinct flavors that you’re able to tell apart. The tofu in each were spongy and chewy. The egg plant dish was stingy with egg plant pieces and they were tiny, almost like baby eggplant. But the soy fish had tons of slices. The sauce was flavorful and peppery with seaweed wrapping that mimics the fish scales.

Overall, the food was average but affordable. Each rice bowl cost $2. We did not get served water and they forgot our drink. I had ordered Thai tea with the lunch special. Ended up taking it on the road.

We have loved this place since we moved to
OC. Love their food and the variety they have. They have a lot of options to chose from. Love their mock meat options. They also have a wide variety of dishes which only has vegetables and tofu, and it’s delicious.

Came here for lunch, don't miss out on the lunch special, which comes with a free drink! I opted for the Thai tea, along with the combination pho. The broth was delicious and full of veggies, noodles and various soy meats and tofus. The staff were welcoming and very attentive.

I'll definitely be back!

This place is so good! We ordered for a work lunch of 30 people and had the eggrolls, Thai salad, salted crispy shrimp, garlic noodle, rice, shaking soy beef, and orange soy chicken, and everyone loved it. They even helped accommodate an early 11:30am pick up time. Thanks for everything!

We love Mitasie cafe! This was our first visit and we plan to return and recommend it to our friends and family. Lots of options, friendly environment, friendly service. We ordered the wonton soup, vegan egg rolls, garlic noodles, and eggplant tofu hot pot with rice. Non-vegan boyfriend loved it too!
