Upscale ambiance with very reasonable prices and good sized portions. Try the Pad Sew You with broccoli, cauliflower and tofu. Water & tea refills. The menu has some errors so request vegan options carefully. Reported closed to HappyCow.

I don't think this place is veg - Edit
First of all, major point of confusion: The menu offers paying a little more for meat. At first reading it I assumed that meant soy/wheat meat, but on second thought I don't think so. I had a weird experience when I went there a few months ago... my dining partner for that visit speaks fluent Thai and asked the server if any of the food contained fish sauce. She replied (in Thai) that she'd be happy to add some for us, which of course we declined. She was incredibly friendly and nice, and definitely a good server, it was just a bit of a disconnect from the expectations we had of a veg restaurant.
The food: not bad, not outstanding either. The soy meat seems to be in everything and it's kind of odd. Personally I prefer tofu, but if you like something chewier it might be your thing. The red curry eggplant was really good, with beautiful presentation, and interesting that they put crumbled up bits of the soy stuff into the curry sauce.
I'd probably give this place another try, but can't say it really thrilled me. Would love to see some other reviews!
Pros: service, curry eggplant dish, pretty decor
Cons: veg ambiguity
