King's Joy
京兆尹
A two-Michelin-starred vegetarian restaurant set in a courtyard next to the Yonghe Temple, renowned for its exquisite vegetarian tasting menus.
Located at No. 2 Wudaoying Hutong, right next to the Yonghe Temple, this restaurant is housed in a beautifully renovated historic courtyard with a Zen-inspired design. It offers three multi-course lacto-ovo vegetarian tasting menus, which can be made vegan upon request. More than half of the ingredients are sourced from farms around Beijing, with dishes prepared by steaming, slow-stewing, or light stir-frying to highlight their natural flavors. It retains its two-star status in the 2027 Michelin Guide. Travel guides record an average cost of about 560 CNY per person (date unspecified), but actual prices vary by menu, and reservations are highly recommended. Take Subway Line 5 to Yonghegong (Lama Temple) Station and walk over.
