| - Ever-so barely 4 stars:
If one attempts their "all-you-can-eat" buffet option (my only selection thus far!), there are the virtues of endless vegetarian sushi of somewhat acceptable quality, alongside various vegetable side dishes of slightly-above-average quality.
The artificial meat substitutes are majorly distasteful for my palate but I can tolerate them; They are absolutely hard on my stomach. I do not deduct points in this regard due to it being my own subjective preference in the face of a vegetarian culture that majorly accepts such cuisine. The more-organic options of the buffet are my preference and are what I score the most heavily.
This is not for a palate that is absolutely refined; however, if one is hungry and desires great amounts of processed vegetable protein, then Yuan will be absolutely delightful.
I consider this one of the best vegetarian restaurants based on the quantity of food provided in their buffet option (I cannot speak for other specialty dishes) and the diversity in types of vegetarian foods offered. However, I would not consider it the absolute best in quality of food nor the best in interior design.
The ambiance is calming, serene yet very dated and nearly tacky in specific accessories. This can kill my desire to be in a place; However, they make up for it in the sheer spaciousness and openness of the restaurant. I have space to breathe, very fortunately.
The food, in all likelihood, is not fresh (some of it is likely frozen) nor particularly organic; However, in the honesty of the pricing and quantity they provide, such is overshadowed.
Again, I state, this is not for the palate that is refined but is for the one that wishes to simply experience a plethora of various vegetarian treats.
I would not eat here more than twice a month on the principle of health concerns regarding the heavily-processed nature of the vegetable proteins involved.
It absolutely should be noted the staff is particularly humble and concerned about the quality of your experience: You will be taken care of.
