The best gluten free restaurant in Sydney CBD, thank you for the addition of the little gluten free flags so I don't have to bug the wait staff to ensure my meal is gf!
Surprised by the negative reviews regarding the service. A group of 4 of us dined at Bodhi last night and absolutely loved it- service included. My favourite dish was the eggplant dish and the sticky date pudding was to die for!
This place made me fall in love with char siu and vegan dining.
The ambience, food and service was top notch and I’d recommend this place for one of the best vegan meals you’ll have in Sydney.
If only they could make the seating a bit more comfortable with back rest, it would score a perfect 5!
Vegetarian feast with set menu yum cha, prawn dumplings were my favorite but everything was great. Great location.
Bodhi is a hidden vegan Yum Cha restaurant under the plaza outside St Mary's Cathedral, and overseeing Cook and Phillip Park. As a person who grew up in Cantonese Yum Cha culture, I would say not only do these vegan dim sum look good, they also taste amazing! They do believable substitute for meat, especially their prawn dumpling. Have been there for lunch and dinner. During lunch time, the waiters / waitresses bring out trays of dim sums and walk around. While at night, it's more like a restaurant and bar, which serve interesting cocktails. Definitely will come back again! :-)
Still producing consistently good quality dumplings. I first discovered this place in the 90s and it has not dropped in quality or popularity. Nestled under beautiful established Moreton Bay Fig trees by the famous cathedral. Wonderful varied menu with lots of vegetarian and vegan options too. Very friendly to people with allergies which gets them extra points from me. My favourite are the sweet Japanese pumpkin dumplings.
This place is enough to convert any meat-lover to vegan. Who knew vegetables could be so tasty? The menu is inventive and really elevates vegetarian cuisine to a new level. The dim sum menu with mini share plates is particularly good with many dishes to choose from. The 'prawn' dumplings taste just like the real thing. A must for vegetarians and lovers of good food!
Had a really enjoyable meal with a hugry belly. The menu was too good n made be difficult to choose. Each item was so tempting. My dish had veggies fried in excellent squash sause n good flavour on thai ginger galangal. This place is must visit fir vegeterian Indiand.
We came here for Yum Cha and were pretty skeptical on how everything would taste, but loved all the dishes we ordered! Definitely a must-try if you want to experience Yum Cha with a twist. Staff were very polite and patient when explaining each dish to us too!
Situated right next to a park so its a nice location. Tried their yum cha that serve all vegan food. Food and service were great! Would definitely visit again
Simply amazing! Each dish was so flavorful and to top it all off everything is VEGAN... I could easily take any meat lover here without having to worry about them missing out...
Easy to miss, as the entry is quite unassuming. However, not one to miss! Meat lovers give it a try you’ll be surprised.
As a hardcore carnivore, I was reluctant to go here for a work lunch, I was totally wrong!
This place is a hidden gem, amazing yum cha, really fresh and great service.
The cocktails and wine are really good too. Check it out!
4.6/5 for me. The staff there were so welcoming even though we had arrived early. Our server was very friendly but could have improved by keeping to our own picks rather than their suggestions.
The food however was incredibly flavoursome but also very light. It was a very satisfying meal without feeling like you needed to wear stretchy pants to the restaurant. Pretty big fan of the sliders and the eggplant was a table favourite. Would have loved to see a little more spice to the curry but the chef's have definitely learnt how to create "duck" at a similar taste to the original.
Overall great vegan experience and would definitely go back
The food is absolutely amazing and the dishes are very diverse and special. The cocktails are top quality as well. The ingredients felt like really good quality and the preparation was on point. One star deduction because some of the staff wasn't so polite. Not the new waiter though, who served us most of the time and who was very helpful and friendly.
Sublime experience of vegan food. We dined outside under gorgeous trees in the courtyard. Loved the setting and the seating. The food started arriving shortly after we sat down and the offerings didn't stop. Every plate contained something tempting, using fresh and delicious ingredients. Everything was perfectly presented. The staff were wonderful and attentive. Our waitress made excellent recommendations about food dishes and the amazing cocktails on offer. The Tipsy Bunny was a standout as were the vegan desserts. A marvellous gastronomical experience.
Stunning vegetarian food and cool concept. Don't worry about studying the menu. Just sit down and grab pieces to try and share as they are offered at your table. All of them were good and there is enough variety to delight everyone. The only issue: You start and eat way too much too quickly so there is no more space when even more interesting dishes appear. Clear reason to come back!
An amazing restaurant with great food! The place had a lively welcoming vibe and the staff were very helpful and friendly. Our dishes were full of flavour and fresh ingredients. We especially loved the taro gnocchi - yum! Would definitely come back again when visiting Sydney,
Decided to get lunch from this place on my days visit to Sydney. For some reason I don’t like Asian food but after visiting this place I felt i have not eaten from the right places.
I enjoyed every dish and loved the variety of options they had. I wish I had that big space where I could try every dish. And not forget the cocktails were the best.
I will keep visiting this place.
Exceptional vegan food and beverage list. What a fabulous spot for a nice lunch; sitting outside under the trees in the shade or there are a few tables inside with huge open doors leading to the outside. Excellent wine, cocktails and mocktails available. The food just kept on coming and you can say 'no' or 'yes' to whatever you want...nobody takes offence. My family who are meat eaters loved the vegan dishes and enjoyed the majority of the yum cha. There were just a couple they didn't like but that was only due to their own personal preferences. 'pork' buns and Mango crepes are sensational. This is a must go to for any vegan, or actually any non-vegan.
