This place is super cute, and was fairly busy for a weekday evening. It's got a really cute modern and cozy vibe! The Pad see ew came in a fairly large portion, but I wish it had more vegetable in it! There were just a few pieces in mine. The mango sticky rice was pretty disappointing. The mango was SO sour like, I couldn't help but pucker my face at how sour it was. I have sensitive teeth so I ended up not eating very much of this. Also, the blue/purple rice is a fun/novel idea, but doesn't add any flavor so it feels a little unnecessary. Our servers were very nice and we were checked in on regularly!

Update: This is still one of our favorite vegan restaurants, so we have come back quite a bit. Jackfruit appetizer is still a favorite, and coastal curry is a good dish every time. Khao Soi- spice level still really varies each time. 4/5 Tom Kha- milky lemongrass soup is quite mild. Not too bad, but generally prefer the khao soi more. We also wanted to pair this with noodles. 3/5 Veggie pho- Not a huge fan of the mince fake meat, people accustomed to meat would likely enjoy more. It made the dish quite smokey and meat flavored. Otherwise, the broth had a good depth of flavor, and variety of veggies. Enough for two meals for us. 3/5 Mango sticky rice- the rice was overly sweet, and the rice seemed undercooked with extra chewy bits. Mango was slightly tart (makes sense given its not quite the season). 3/5 Service is always great here.

My colleague recommended this Vegan Thai place for lunch. We started off with organic ginger hot tea and thai iced tea. My herbal tea had a very strong ginger kick which was very comforting for my itchy throat. And my colleague also liked her refreshing iced tea. We then, shared Cauliflower bombs for appetizer. It was crispy, coated with spicy seasoning and very flavorful. It was a perfect sized shareable app between two people. Definitely stood out among all the food we ordered. For the mains, we ordered pad makua stir fry and red curry. Red curry was very creamy, delicious and the veggies were very fresh. Pad makua had very interesting flavor profile and was good but it had too many eggplant slices. I couldn't finish eating so much eggplant after a while. I was initially going for chuchi artichoke and should have stuck with that choice. But my server recommended pad makua as it was more juicy. May be next time, I'll try the other stir fry. The service was quick. Our server was sweet and chatty. The ambiance is quite warm and welcoming. I will go back to try more things from their menu!

Stopped by for dinner on a Friday night around 7pm - we hit the dinner rush, but only waited about 30-40 minutes. The restaurant is nice and clean, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was pretty good. We ordered garlic jackfruit stick rice, Devil Wings, Pineapple fried rice, Kay tiew Kua gai, and mango sticky rice. Everything was pretty good, the 2 appetizers are a bit much for 2 people to share (due to it all being fried), but would be good for a group of 3-4.

I came here at the recommendation of a friend. The interior is really cute and trendy, definitely not how I typically expect an Asian restaurant to look. Our table was in an awkward nook by the bar, so we had to scootch past a lot of other tables to get back there. I ordered the pad see ew and while it was cooked fine, for someone who is non-vegan, it did not taste like how I would expect pad see ew to taste. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't pad see ew to me. Despite our odd location, service was quick and attentive throughout dinner. While I likely won't go back, it was worth trying and a great option for actual vegans.

One of the best plant-based restaurants I have eaten at. I only wish we had one in the Minneapolis area.Vegetarian options: Everything was great!

Would have given ZERO , if there was an optionMy recent visit to this restaurant was highly disappointing.Upon arrival, despite the establishment being empty, we were left unattended for a significant period before being seated.Subsequently, we had to remind the staff to take our order.Furthermore, when our main dishes arrived, we were shocked to find that no plates were provided.Despite attempts to contact the staff, there was no response, necessitating our intervention to procure plates ourselves.Additionally, despite expressing a desire to explore different menu options, our preferences were not acknowledged once our order was placed.This level of neglect was especially disheartening considering that other tables did not encounter similar issues.Overall, the lack of attention to customer needs, coupled with apparent DISCRIMINATION, renders this establishment one to avoid.

If you are looking for a vegan restaurant near the Space Needle this is one of the better place to visit! It takes about 10 mins to reach by cab. It’s a cute little restaurant with good ambience!We tried Kati satay for appetizer. And for the main course we tried curry fried rice and khao soi!! The food tasted very good and the service was pretty quick!Overall it was a pleasant experience!

I've tried the Kirkland location couple years ago and loved it. Came here with high expectations but the food is below average.you can find better taste and quality at a hole in the wall Thai restaurant than this overpriced stuff. The papaya salad is the worst I've ever had.. was just too sweet and has lemon pieces hidden for us to fish out . Not to miss a quarter of raw cabbage strewn for decoration,it's not edible as is and such a waste of food. Pad Thai also was so soggy,chewy and painfully sweet. The jackfruit appetizer is decent but doesn't need the heap of rice the jackfruit fritters are tasty on their own. Service and ambience are good but don't matter if the food doesn't live up to hype. Anyway won't be returning here again.

The food here is SO flavorful! I highly recommend the garlic jackfruit and the portobello mushrooms that comes with the lime garlic broccoli. I so wish they had this restaurant across the ferry. I can't wait to come back again! So so good!!! Even my non vegan friend enjoyed the food.

Fine dining restaurant with interesting menu. Tried cauliflower appetizers, fried tofu and roti paratha and for main course variety of fried rice and stir fry jackfruit . Taste was average. Quality one dish per person. Service was average. Ambience is great. Small place

The food was absolutely amazing. Both my friends aren't veg and they also loved it.We didn't care for the floor. It was sticky, and when a chair was pulled out, it was very loud.We'll definitely be back. Hopefully, something can be done about the floor.

Food Delicious Vietnamese/thai noodle soup. Perhaps the best I ever had! Food is a little pricey here (maybe because it's vegan and it's in the SLU area) Service Attentive and friendly Ambiance Some dressed nice and casual. Would come here again and take my vegan friends
