Lion Dance Cafe - Oakland

The menu has lots of variety I have never had a bad item noodles and fresh veggies, fried mushrooms and peanuts. They update the menu with seasonally available ingredients you cannot go wrong with anything on their menu (allergies aside, of course).

This restaurant is amazing! The food is so delicious-particularly the sauces, which have so much complexity. This is a very small restaurant (less than 10 tables), and as a result, you are charged $20 per person when you make a reservation. However, as soon as you check in that money is credited back to your card. I love that they focus on seasonal produce. Also, the staff was great- friendly and very knowledgeable. I can’t wait to go back!

Don't know why we waited so long to eat here. But we can't wait to go back. EVERY dish was packed full of flavor flavors we have not tasted anywhere else. Definitely make a reservation because it's a tiny place with a huge reputation. They deserve a Michelin star. (And I bet they get one). Thank you for creating and serving up such amazing vegan food. p.s. Every person who works at Lion Dance is warm and welcoming.

The food here is spectacular and bursting with flavor. The laksa is by far the best I've ever eaten hands down. I'd suggest trying everything because I've never had a dish from this dynamic duo that I didn't enjoy. Well thought out creations, amazing ingredients, and lots of love equals consistent masterpieces. Highly recommend!

This place is awesome. The boy choy and cacio y pepe noodles were the favorites. I’ve also tried one of the sandwiches, the mushrooms and a salad, which were ok not great. The pandan cake is also amazing!
