Bodhi I love you, may you last forever. If I could only eat at one more restaurant for the rest of my life I would choose Bodhi. Their soup dumplings are out of this world. The bok choy is so garlicky and fresh. Every dim sum plate I've had here has been delicious. Service is quick and efficient while still being friendly. This is a vegan paradise. They also clearly label gluten free dishes on the menu.

Great gluten-free dim sum. I had the steamed taro and the homemade steamed dumplings. They were flavorful and hearty. I can't give a full rating since I only tried a few, but a friend highly recommends them.

I have visited this restaurant several times when traveling between Los Angeles and New York, and until now, the service had always been kind. I also truly appreciate that they have vegan and gluten-free options, which is very rare and important to me. This time, I visited again after a long time, and I was really looking forward to it, especially because it was my daughter’s first time. We are Japanese. Even though the restaurant had just opened and was almost empty, we were seated at a table right next to the entrance. After us, other customers were seated in the middle and back of the restaurant. This was clearly not random. From the attitude and behavior of the female staff member who seated us, I strongly felt that this was racial discrimination against us as Asians and Japanese. It was extremely shocking and heartbreaking. I almost cried. It is especially painful and ironic because this restaurant has “Buddha” in its name, and many of the staff are Asian. The staff member who seated us did not appear to be Asian and was a short woman. Some of the other servers were kind as usual, so I still left a tip for the kitchen staff and the kind servers. But honestly, after this experience, I am afraid to come back. This was a very sad experience Being able to eat vegan and gluten-free dim sum is very precious to me, which makes this even more painful. Discrimination should never happen anywhere, especially not in a place like this. Our special time and meal were completely ruined. This was a deeply sad and unacceptable experience.

Good dim sum food at reasonable price. The servers were friendly. Service was reasonably fast. The steam glutinous rice and Cha Sao Bao were really good. The fried carrot cake was a little soft. We also had dumplings for takeout.

Amazing place if you’re vegetarian and looking for a good Chinese meal. Everything on the menu is vegetarian and tastes delicious- the chicken lo mein was a favorite for my friends and I. If you are gluten free, the waitress will give you a separate menu and will let you know if what was ordered is GF or not. The BBQ meat was also very tasty and had a lovely texture, and you must get the beef buns.

Being gluten free and vegetarian, I can so rarely have any Chinese food, let alone dim sum. It was so delightful and delicious to be able to have so many menu items!! Such a wonderful meal and shockingly affordable, too. (So used to the huge up charge for food that I can eat!) Can't wait to return.

Delicious ravioli and dim sum, all vegan or vegetarian! The gluten-free menu is also super helpful. An important note: keep asking which dishes are suitable for your food allergies. The staff was wonderful. I had to take off one point for the service because the dishes were not marked as gluten-free, the staff did not declare which dishes were gluten-free when delivering the food, and after a while, it became difficult to keep track. It would be helpful to add toothpicks with allergens to their dishes.

The place was very busy when I got in at around 3:05pm on a Monday. Not too bad. For Dinner, I had the BBQ Veg Meat with Fried Taro Dumplings and both of them were Delicious. The servers were very Nice and Friendly. I spent under $20. That was a Smash! Definitely stop by this place because they have a wide variety of Vegan and Gluten Free Options. 50+ of the Item Menu.

The "beef" rice rolls were amazing! So much flavor and honestly didnt taste any different than the meat version. They also have gluten free soy sauce!

For the record I’m not a vegetarian. But one day if somehow, someway, all the burgers, sausages and steaks disappeared in the world I’d still be a happy man at this restaurant. It still boggles my mind how they made wheat gluten taste like classic Chinese BBQ roast pork. How their lemon chicken taste like... chicken. For all you die hard carnivores get ready to have your minds blown when you eat here.
