Mitasie Vegan Cafe

Excellent experience overall. The food was absolutely delicious and the portion sizes were very generous. Their special vegetable soup was incredibly flavorful and comforting, and the vegetable Chow Mein was truly out of this world — easily one of the best I’ve had. Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to and recommending to others.

A great little find while visiting the Irvine area for work. The menu is packed with options—almost too many, in the best way—so choosing is always tough. I’ve been here a couple of times now and plan to stop in whenever I’m in town. On my latest visit, I tried the Soy BBQ and Egg Roll Vermicelli and was really impressed; it’s a unique and flavorful dish. I also grabbed a slice of carrot cake to go, and it was fantastic.

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.

The fried rice was absolutely delicious! In the desert of vegan restaurants in lake forest this is a welcome Oasis! lovely people amazing food !! Highly Recommend !!

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 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.

My dish Was great (Salted Pepper "Cryspy" Tofu), our other dish (Mitasi Garlic Noodle) was so so. The Mango slushy was SO refreshing (especially since it was HOT inside & outside - no a/c!). The chocolate cake was amazing too. We will be back. Very nice staff too - very helpful.
