Lotus Vegetarian Restaurant Menu Singapore: Prices, Dishes & Guide

Plant-based dining with banquet ambition — Lotus Vegetarian Restaurant has spent years convincing sceptics that vegetarian food can headline a celebration. The Taiwanese-rooted kitchen turns out astonishingly realistic mock meats, delicate dim sum and a S$39 all-you-can-eat buffet that draws queues of vegans, vegetarians and the simply curious.

Vegetarian diners building a shortlist should also look at the Green Dot menu for everyday meatless comfort food. For Indian vegetarian classics, the Muthu’s Curry menu covers the South Indian side.

This guide covers the Lotus Vegetarian menu with Singapore prices — dim sum, mock-meat mains, the famous buffet and desserts — plus what to order and answers to common questions.
