Great vibe and food

We tried the tapioca dumplings, papaya fritters which I forgot to take a photo of and the panang curry. All of which were very tasty. The tapioca dumplings had a very interesting texture.

Perfect for date night or dinner with your parents

To clarify: this would be 5 stars if the website allowed non-veg restaurants to have them. The food is delicious, the vibe is great, and the vegan menu is the opposite of an afterthought. Definitely get the green papaya fritters and panang curry; the tapioca dumplings and tofu drunken noodles are also delicious. Even though the menu contains meat and dairy, 95% of the non-vegans I bring end up ordering off the plant-based menu anyway because a) its shared plates, and b) the dishes are more unique.

For a table of four, get 2 mains and 2-3 apps (my picks above). For a table of two, 1 main and 2 apps.

Pros: Delicious, unique vegan menu, Ideal location , Cool, vibrant vibes

Cons: Can get expensive w/ multiple shared plates, Few options for fussy eaters

Good vibe, ok food.

I loved the music, the drinks, and the atmosphere. The food was just ok. They have a separate plant based menu which we found limited as we had a GF diner at our table. Food wasn’t super flavourful, if you’re looking for amazing Thai food downtown I’d recommend Pai instead. But this was a fun night out.

Pros: Vibe/music, Cocktails, Separate vegan menu

Cons: Expensive, Lack of GF options, Not super flavourful or exciting

Friendly service, okay food

It was great that they had a separate section on the menu for plant-based options. Service was friendly and helpful. We ordered the taro rolls and jungle curry. The taro rolls were okay, the soybean paper was nice and crispy but the taro lacked flavor. The jungle curry was on the salty side and the long beans were missing.

Very hip and happening

Enjoyed the panang curry and would be curious to try the other plant-based items on the menu!
