First Review by vegan_mum

Very tasty, great service - Edit

Limited options but they are happy to make anything vegan. The mushroom soup starter is excellent (warning: it's fairly hot!)

Pros: Tasty, Great service

Cons: Limited options

flavorful vegan options - Edit

Friendly staff serve piping hot fresh Thai dishes from their menu page of vegetarian and vegan options. The clear mushroom soup satisfies with expected flavors: cilantro (coriander), kaffir lime, galangal, and lemongrass, perfectly spiced (not too hot, not mild). We got the sweet and sour veggies and curried veggies. Both were tasty though oddly did not include either tofu or eggplant. (I think the waiter misunderstood our request. There has been a [mistaken] cultural backlash against soy in the UK, so he probably thought I wanted to avoid tofu.) This little place makes a welcome date night for the hungry vegan craving Asian food near Alton. A solid 3.5 stars.

Pros: Tasty authentic Thai food, Friendly service, Reasonable prices

Cons: No tofu?
