Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Our take: True Veggie offers a wide selection of vegetarian dishes, including zi char options, at reasonable prices.

We note consistent feedback about generous portion sizes, even for smaller plates like the $5.50 Hokkien Mee or $7 Petai Fried Rice.

The Plain Prata, priced at $2.60 for two, is a popular item, though it's only available after 5pm and can sell out early.

While dishes like the hor fun are praised for their 'wok hei' and the prata curry for its thick, creamy texture, the crispy noodles have received mixed reviews, with some finding the gravy turns watery quickly.

Service can be a mixed bag; some patrons report short waiting times for dishes like bee hoon, while others have waited over 30 minutes for their food even when the restaurant wasn't crowded.

A significant point of contention is the lack of air conditioning, which can make for a less-than-ideal dining environment.

Despite this, the overall consensus points to tasty, filling vegetarian food that offers good value.

Verdict: A solid option for a casual, affordable vegetarian meal with generous portions, especially if you're in the mood for prata after 5pm.

Be prepared for potentially long waits during busy periods and the absence of air conditioning.

What customers say

True Veggie is generally well-regarded for its generous portions and reasonable pricing, offering a wide variety of vegetarian dishes including zhi char options.

While dishes like the Hokkien Mee, Petai fried rice, and Horfun with 'wok hei' receive high praise for taste, some customers note issues like the crispy noodle gravy turning watery quickly and long waiting times, even when not crowded.

The popular prata often sells out early, and the lack of air conditioning can detract from the dining experience.
