Shu reviews
87Flavorsome creative vegetarian sichuan cuisine. We left feeling satisfied - it was just the right balance of flavor and quantity. It was definitely not too heavy, I would recommend this to anyone wanting a small kick of spice that is constructed thoughtfully.
Loved the 10-course degustation, tasted great and presentation was beautiful. Enjoyed the whole atmosphere, plus very friendly and professional service ️
We had the 10 dish degustation and it was a treat. The food is wonderfully fresh and being vegan, offers something a bit different in fine dining.
I wouldn't recommend this venue in winter. The heating was on, but it was still just on the chilly side of comfort. And when you're sitting down for a 2-hour meal, you'd like to be comfortable.
I'll definitely be back again, but I'll plan around the seasons.
Came here for the 5 course experimental menu and was quite impressed. There was a good variety of inventive dishes and quite affordable too!
Amazing food! Had the 10 course set menu and it was so good. Was not a fan of the avo cheese cake, but everything else was fantastic
Interesting vegan concept, overall delicious meal but some of the sauces were either too salty or too raw (literally raw vegetables packed together)
Glad i happen to visit this place. Such a great presentation. Awesome is the word. One star less so they can improve on the waiting time
Wonderful atmosphere, lovely staff, and AMAZING food! We had the 10 course vegan degustation and the food was delicious. Well worth the money, and we were really full before it all ended.
Highly recommend the charcoal noodles and the mushroom steak.
Went there with my partner for our special date, we were there for 3 hours for the degustation menu, the food was mostly cold which bothered us a bit, food was overall tasty and well present, although it was extremely spicy. Will not be coming back or recommending after waiting so long for so such tiny portions.
Absolutely delicious vegan creations! Zoe/Zoey who waited upon us was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. Thanks for a superb evening!
Extremely tasty food, the staff were clearly very busy but they were very attentive and friendly, lovely atmosphere, I can't wait to come back!
Amazing vegan restaurant. The degustation is fantastic, so creative and tasty and well balanced. Great industrial-chic space with a surprise out the back. Highly recommended.
Honestly, one of my favourite dining experiences to date. I legit walked out and began looking for more Acacado cheesecake immediately. Solid.
We booked for 6pm table and finished at 9pm, 10 course degustation menu. It definitely took too long to serve, I honestly was falling asleep and couldn’t wait to leave already. Food presentation was great but taste was not as impressive as it looked. Starters were spot on but the rest of the meal was salty, even dessert as cheesecake was salty.
It’s definitely vegan but they aren’t healthy! I feel sorry for people who have hypertension, heart and kidney diseases!
And the most annoying part was the chopstick stand! It doesn’t serve the purpose, my chopsticks/fork kept sliding off the stand! What the point, really? !? !
I am a dedicated Carnivore! But this place has makes eating Vegan enjoyable.
The staff are fantastic - they care about the experience the food and most importantly about their customers.
The food is amazing. I have been a few times now and enjoyed the experimental 5 course menu. They are testing and trying things with this menu so some courses are much better than others, but they were all impressive presentations of great tasting dishes. They do time the courses to be in line with their main 10 course degustation, this means you need a few hours for the meal (We were there 2.5 hours). It did seem a little long between courses for my liking.
The drink selection is very good and they do a beverage pairing which is highly recommended. The ginger beer is especially good and don't be afraid of the price it is a large bottle that you can get three medium glasses out of.
The environment is an eclectic mix of "stuff" that means your constantly spotting something new.many of which are great conversation starters.
Ill be back to try the main 10 course degustation!
The food was absolutely delicious but a bit pricey for the portion size and the waitresses were very nice and friendly. I'd recommend to try.
Just wow! Easily the best vegan/vego restaurant I been in Melbourne. The variety, taste and atmosphere is amazing. Not fine dining or casual - in between.
Prices reflect the quality and portion sizes.
This place is amazing. I took (forced) my partner who isn't into vegan food and they loved it! I just wish I could cook vegan food this well myself as everything was so tasty. They were also able to cater for a coeliac and every time they brought a dish out, they were sure to mention that it was coeliac friendly which put us at ease that they knew what they were doing without us having to make a fuss.
In our group of 6, we only had one vegan, but we all loved the food. Each dish was so interesting and beautifully presented. I particularly liked the brown rice cracker (sounds boring, but really wasn't) and the 'oyster'. $75 each for the 10 course degustation was a really good deal. We were all full when we left.
The mocktail was really good too.
This vegan degustation was beautiful, interesting and challenged my taste buds. It was definitely worth the experience but personally this wasn't as satisfying as it could be.
