Excellent variety of dishes, friendly owner & staff - Edit
During our 5 day visit to Pattaya, we visited Five Star J vegetarian twice because WE LOVED IT.
Read moreThe restaurant is vegetarian (and vegan friendly), with excellent variety of 200+ dishes, very friendly owner & staff.
The menu has Thai, Indian, Italian, Mexican, Chinese, Malaysian, Western and fusion dishes. Really appreciated the level of detail on the menu – including how spicy each dish was and sometimes the waitresses would check with us to make sure we could take that level of spice.
I highly recommend the spinach dumplings, papaya & green mango salad, khao suey, tom yum with veggie seafood, stir fried spicy noodles and passion fruit ice cream. In terms of curries, we really enjoyed the tempeh pumpkin red curry. Others dining at the restaurant mentioned the banana pancakes were delicious too.
Five Star veggie is closed on Wednesdays. Takeaway and delivery available.

Clean food but messed order up few times - Edit
The resturant menu has a wide selection of food. Vegan and vegetarian wide selection.
Read moreThe staff was polite and freindly yet what put me off was the way the owner spoke to the staff and treated them was really very unpleasant. At first it become my favorite place to eat but after a few visits it really upset me how the staff was treated by the owner at one point one of the girls looked like she was going to cry. Felt very uncomfortable. Food is clean but eome dishes especially the westen food is bland and very dry. The mexican and thai food is the best on all i can not knock the food or service yet i would recommend the thai dishes and duck
Pros: Food was clean , Service freindly, Fast service
Cons: Staff treatment, Gave me wrong food , Served me eggs in one dish

Not as expected... - Edit
We've been here because of the good reviews, but over all we were a bit disappointed.
Read moreWe ordered two currys one for 169 baht and the other one 139 baht with rice for 39 baht. It was very pricy in my opinion compared to other restaurants and for what you get.
The food was o.k., but we expected more for our money.
While we were eating, when my partner finished one of his plates the waitress started immediately to take away his plate, while I was still eating.
And if that were not enough, when he finished the other plate, she came again, took away his dishes and asked him if he wanted a desert, while I was still eating. That was pretty disrupting.
The staff was friendly and served us quickly, but we had to pay a 7%-service fee (we never had to pay that in any other restaurant) on top of the price.
We wouldn't recommend this place.

arrived fast both times. I didn't really need the owners introduction about the menu and restaurant but it was
short and to the point. I also noticed when i unfolded my DISPOSABLE napkin wrapped around my silverware it had food on the inside of it..Meaning it was already used!
the napkin across from me also had dark smudges on it?
Was not enjoying that part :(
Pros: Excellent food, friendly staff
Cons: used napkins!, bit pricey

Great food - Edit
Had an amazing lunch in this place.
Read moreFried rice - I ordered black rice, it’s so fragrant with the chewy rice texture. I wanted to get medium spicy level but the restaurant manager advised me he would get the kitchen to prepare one chili level and if I don’t find it spicy, they still can add more chilis later. It turned out the spicy level is great and does match well with black rice.
Green curry - Same thing as the fried rice, I just ordered with one chili level. The curry broth is so yummy, fragrant with coconut milk and I can just drink it. Personally I think it can be more spicy but my dining partner wouldn’t want to have too spicy food.
Spinach rosti - This is the best rosti I have ever tasted and my dining partner loves it very much as well. The topping of spinach and vegan cheese matches well with the rosti!
I’m so delightful that they do serve vegan ice cream. The mango ice cream is yummy!
Overall all the food is very tasty and the service is good! Vegan option is clearly stated. Highly recommend this place!! 🙂
Pros: Lots of vegan , Yummy food, Friendly staff

Hits the sweet spot. Really does. - Edit
Food is verily God, and should fulfill all our senses.
Read moreIt should look, smell and taste good.
It should feel good on the tongue, the teeth and the stomach.
The missus and I searched for this place on the night before our flight back to Singapore. And the hunt was worth it.
We ordered
Spinach Gyoza and Tempeh Satay - Actually this was too good and I gorged on them and didn't leave enough room for the mains...
Vegetable Green Curry - Sublime
Tom Yum Soup - This was probably the best Tom Yum Soup I've ever had. 😍
Massaman Chicken Curry - A tad spicy for my liking, but so good!
The vegan ice cream - Quite good too!
My only regret was that we over ordered, and we couldn't take any to go, especially that Tom Yum soup.

Food is good, but too expensive - Edit
The food was good, but the portions are ridiculously small and the price is quite steep compared to local thai restaurant. You can eat a pad thai and fried rice for 50 baht, so paying triple that for the same sucks.

Great food - Edit
I went here probably 4 or 5 times. Was dying to get some healthy food without white rice.
Read moreNot only did they have brown rice they had red and black rice!
Everything I tried was good, and there is a huge number of options.
It's clear the owners care about the food they're serving to customer. This is not your average restaurant business.
Too bad it's so hard to find places like this when you're traveling.
Pros: Lots of vegan options. Low-fat.
Cons: The location is nothing special, but it's central.

Good choices, good quality - Edit
Really cool place, it has a lot of different options, most of them Thai which is nice, you can get most traditional Thai dishes here in vegan version. They have some European stuff too like pasta and pizza. The mushroom and spinach gyozas are amazing !! They also have some eggs in some dishes but it's very clearly marked. Highly recommended

Amazing Range of Vegan Options - Edit
I actually picked my hotel with this restaurant in mind as if I ran out of options this place would always be close by. And it didn't disappoint.
Read moreHealthy food and a healthy selection of that food with good service in a very clean ambiance, and their food philosophy means of the 4 times I visited the restaurant I never had a bad meal. The ambiance is perfect and cosy with service great.
I had many different dishes including:
Tempeh Burger
Fried glass noodles
Massaman shiitake curry
All without fail were amazing and perfectly priced!
You have missed out one of the best vegan food experiences in Pattaya if on your visit you fail to visit this place.

Cleanest kitchen in Thailand! - Edit
Pattaya can be a challenging city energetically for all sorts of reasons and finding a clean place that serves vegan food and uses coconut oil and no msg etc while being super clean was a treat. It sure helps that the owners are both lovely and dedicated to providing good service and quality food. We loved the giozzas and appreciated the extensive menu. Highly recommend it if you end up in Pattaya. ✨
