• Awesome atmosphere, food is nothing special

Aum is at a convenient location, just a few steps away from Tha Pae gate. The restaurant has a really cool atmosphere. Sit upstairs for lots of wooden paneling and furniture, colorful cushions, interesting statues and plants, etc. Most seating is on the floor. The menu is large, but a little pricey. Everything is vegetarian, and there are tons of vegan options. I've eaten here twice - The first time I got fresh spring rolls with some sort of spicy mushroom dish. The mushroom dish was WAY too spicy (although it is probably my fault for not telling them to keep it bearable for a western palate), to the point of being inedible. The spring rolls were okay, but I've had tastier rolls at other veg restaurants in town for a lower price. The second time I got the vegan burger, which was quite good, and they even offered me vegan mayonnaise. Overall the food is good enough, but not quite worth the money as it compares to restaurants like Taste from Heaven, where the prices are slightly lower and the food much yummier.
