Visited Pu Kwong Vegetarian Restaurant with intention of using the Entertainment book. Really important to note that if you visit Pu Kwong you should visit with intention of getting some really good authentic, Chinese vegetarian/vegan food and not come for decoration, service or entertainment. Also, if you are visiting and also planning to use the Entertainment book note that even though they have eftpos facilities, the owners will only accept a cash payment for it. If you're dining without this, eftpos and cash facilities are available. Despite this, the portion sizes are great and great to share. However, almost everything we ordered was deep fried and we could not tell based on the menu. The menu simply states the dish and does not provide much description or any images.

We ordered the sweet and sour king prawns. These were so delicious. The texture of the 'prawns' was almost the exact same as a real prawn which was so amazing. The sweet and sour sauce was really nice too - highly recommend ordering this tasty dish! The lemon chicken is really authentic and definitely tasted like actual lemon chicken! The lemon flavour was not overpowering at all either. We also ordered a deep fried eggplant dish which was so nice and perfectly fried. The last thing we ordered was a red bean pancake in the entrees. This was quite average and would probably not reorder this. Apart from this entree, all the dishes were so delicious and highly recommend ordering any of these dishes!

The customer service was acceptable, nothing great but can't really complain. Pu Kwong is a family run business so sometimes there may not be enough waiters as there are not many staff. Overall, we will be returning to get some delicious Chinese vegetarian food but do not have very high expectations for anything but the food. The meat substitutes used are very similar to that of actual meat so that's great!

After a quick google search, Looking for Good vegetarian restaurants in Brisbane. I'm very glad this place popped up. I've eaten in at Pu Kwong several times now and I can say that the food was honestly very tasty, with decent portion sizes and well priced.

My first time ever the service was a pretty cold, to be blunt, but after multiple visits the main Lady who I think owns/runs it has become much friendlier and I think prouder to see return customers who enjoy the food they produce. Which in itself is totally fine.

If you want super comfy chairs to sit on, multiple waiters with ties, to handle your every request, TVs in every corner you really do need to go elsewhere.
If on the other hand, you're after a great local food spot that serves decent, healthy-ish vegetarian food then here it is. Who knew about vegetarian squid, fish, beef, chicken, duck & prawns ...???
No animal products at all OR nasty chemicals or flavourings.



I had to bump it up to 5 stars. I've been at least 8 times and the food has been top notch. Only fair.
