Food highlights - Edit
The food here was incredible- one of our absolute highlights from 7 months of travel around Asia and in general. The atmosphere is very nice and the staff are friendly. Definitely a must visit when in Penang!

Rather fancy - Edit
Very good food. I’ve had laksa which was a sweet and sour soup. The place looks rather fancy and you place the order via your mobile.

Best healthy vegan restaurant in Penang! - Edit
Amazing and spacious place with a lot of choice. Food is absolutely delicious and healthy. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Lots of locals visit this place which is a good sign. We had the classic Nasi Lemak, mushroom soup, steamed sambal okra and fried sambal eggplant. We absolutely loved each bite!

Disappointed - Edit
We visited on our first day in Penang and had good meals at the time deciding we would revisit before leaving to carry on with our travels. Unfortunately after taking a taxi to get there, we arrived and were told that the restaurant was closed. There were people inside eating and tables were available. While we sat outside deciding where to go and ordering a taxi, a couple walked in and were seated. They had received their drinks and one bowl of food by the time our taxi had arrived. I mention this here because we were staying quite a distance from the area and because we had checked to make sure the restaurant was open before arriving. It was also early afternoon. We just want you to be aware. It’s very odd and the first time anything like this has happened to us. I’m a retired teacher and coach so wasn’t sent away because I look troublesome!

Those flavours.. - Edit
Fun, quirky interior. It is a slightly stressful experience sitting down. They don't really seem to serve any type of drinks other than coffee or tea. No alcohol, no juices. The staff seems in a rush, you are supposed to order everything through an app. The app doesn't really describe what the dishes are, however. What we ordered was just incredible. The Hokkien mee had an amazing thick and rich fishy broth. Their chef really knows what they're doing. I will definitely be back.

Great Nasi Lemak! - Edit
Although on the slightly pricey-er side, the food here was delicious! My boyfriend and I both had a Nasi Lemak, one was satay and the other was tempeh kurma. Both were great! Lots of nice flavours and textures on both. The mushroom “chicken” on the satay skewers was a highlight!

Rich flavoured spicy food - Edit
A bigger spot than it seems from outside with a nice old-fashioned style inside. Digital vegan menu incl. ordering via QR code / online, what is pretty nice and works flawlessly. Menu has many (Asian) alternatives and everything has a really rich flavor. For some people it could be too much, not even the spicyness. And yes, it is spicy, but it a nice and always different way. We had 3 dishes, all were spicy, and all had a different taste: One more typical, almost Indian, curry-spice (Nasi Lemak), the Masak Merah was more a sweet-sour spicyness, and the satay sticks had a spicy peanut sauce. Everyone delicious in its own way, the peanut one is to die for.
Read moreNot many alternatives for cold drinks but the iced lemongrass-ginger drink was great.
Price is totally okay for the quality (all fresh and organic) and totally worth it. We paid for 2 mains, the sticks, 2 lemongrass-ginger on ice and one hot chocolate with oat-milk 100RM.
Pros: Rich flavours, Many alternatives, Fully vegan

Hello - Edit
I appreciate the effort of serving so many ppl cruelty free food. The restaurant was packed when we came.
Read moreI give 1 star minus because of the digital order system. Not a fan of that. Another star less because they claim to serve healthy food, while, at least everything we tried, was super duper oily.
Keeo it up!

All vegan, wonderful atmosphere and easy ordering. Curry noodles were good and the mushroom satay was amazing. Drinks are good but have too much ice. Free wifi as well.

Expensive for not much flavour - Edit
The place is vegan and with the reviews I was excited to try. The food was fairly bland and the fake meat very soft and undercooked even though it said crispy. The aesthetic of the place is beautiful but food came slowly and value for money wasn’t good. We have had cheaper food elsewhere that was delicious so it was disappointing.

Taste did not meet expectations - Edit
Food was freshly prepared and presentation was lovely, but the taste did not match the price. It was honestly rather disappointing; you could get better tasting food at a hawker store for a lot less.
Read moreCakes were also very dry and crumbly, not worth the calories. We also tried their Nasi Lemak but it tasted more like Nasi Briyani (no taste of coconut but a lot of spices)
That said, some dishes were pretty good
- Assam Laksa
- Curry Mee

Upmarket vegan dining - Edit
Pinxin offers something different to many of the other vegan and veggie spots in Penang, and that’s the ambiance, atmosphere and surroundings. You would happily enjoy a business lunch or celebratory dinner at this restaurant, it’s vey well suited to both. The lions main mushroom is championed throughout the menu, featuring in many dishes which made us happy. The satay was delicious (although quite pricey for a relatively small portion) and the Nasu lemak was excellent. The rice dish that we ordered was fine, but rather uninspiring.

Very slow service - Edit
The food is good with some interesting things to try but don't come here if you are in a hurry. 1 soup and 2 sides took almost 2 hours. The soup came first after 40mins, unbelievably.
Read morePros: Interesting sides and drinks
Cons: Difficult to understand why the service is so slow

Many different flavours in one dish - Edit
The food was amazing, a bit spicy and the different textures and flavours made the food incredible.

Try their berry smoothie and cakes. 🤪👍 - Edit
Reasons why I give 4 stars are because we went there more than once and had to wait quite a while for our food and they didn't have a welcoming atmosphere, you have to walk in and kind of help yourself to a table. I think they are understaffed.
Read morePros: Good portion size, Healthy, Full of flavour

Slow service, food so so - Edit
Visited past 1pm on a Saturday. Restaurant doesn't look too busy. Not greeted by anyone. Waiters were very cold when asking them to clear the table or when asking questions. Food took an hour to be served, only when we prompted for it. all we ordered were Nasi Lemak, Nasi Kandar and a burger. Can't understand why it took so long to serve.
Read moreFood portion is good. The taste however is not up to the expectation. The Nasi Kandar curry was a bit bitter. The burger bread was also hard. The chips accompanying the burger was oily. Overall, the food doesn't match the price point
