Thai

Op zich best een aardig Thea’s restaurant. Niet echt bijzonder. In een typische Utrechtse werfkelder. Saaie inrichting, maar wel goede bediening.

Great thai food

3,8. Great food and very friendly people. Most if not all vegetarian stuff is vegan. Plenty of options. Although I hope you like tofu. In the bak there is a fun place to sit that is higher up with a chabudai. Although there is a hole under the table to put your legs.

Poor service

I had booked 2 weeks prior to a group dinner (on a Sunday evening) for 14-15 people. I mentioned it included meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans. There was only one waitress who also served other customers. While I sympathised with her situation she was not very friendly and the service was very poor. Rice was literally thrown on plates, (€2 per person while main courses were already around €18-20 each), and sat there getting cold for over half an hour to 45 minutes before main courses were served. I had ordered the vegan tofu basil, which included soy TVP chunks. Many of us had to wait for a very long time to be served (including drinks), long after others had finished. A side dish of vegetables (very plain) was €9! This was our belated wedding dinner for some friends and family but I am not planning to return to this restaurant!

Pros: Nice location by the canal

Cons: Poor value for money , Poor customer service

I love Thai food!!!

I love Thai food and this restaurant did it right. I love very spicy food and they kindly served extra hot sauce on the side.
This is a regular Thai restaurant, but they serve many vegetarian dishes of which most van be made or are already vegan.
Very tasteful.
Would def. go again any time. Always a good time for Thai food.

Pros: Great food, many choices, most already vegan, relaxed atmsphere

Best Thai so far!

I’ve eaten at many Thai restaurants in the last, but this is so far the best one I’ve eaten at! The staff was very friendly and helpful when I told them I was vegan, the food was really great! I ordered the tofu with vegetables and red curry and they asked me how spicy I wanted it. Very cozy location!

Pros: Great service, The location, Amazing food

Cons: Not that many veg option

Pretty good

We had a pretty good meal: an entree of vegan springrolls and vegan prawn crackers, and a main dish of white rice and sweet-and-sour tahoe and veggies. The other three vegan options were all spicy. Including two drinks and a tip it cost me 24 euro's, so not too expensive; especially considering that it was so much food that I took the rest home and ate it once more. The waitress was friendly and the atmosphere was nice (loved the Thai music), although the place was completely empty.

Pros: Good food, Nice music

Cons: Not many options, Empty restaurant

Waitress didn't had a clue about ingredients or if something was vegan

I ate here with (omni) friends. I chose a vegetarian dish, but the waitress said she didn't know the ingredients and couldn't answer my questions. As a desert I asked if the coconut ice cream was made of coconut milk. Again she didn't know and asked if I was a lactose intolerance. I decided not to order it, but they still served the ice cream. I didn't eat it. Although everybody is very friendly, I wouldn't eat here again, because I can't trust the dishes actually being vegan as the waitresses don't have a clue and won't check with the kitchen.

Pros: Friendly people

Cozy thai restaurant with vegan menu

Warm en cozy restaurant, a little hidden along the Utrecht canal.
Offers a great vegetarian menu (that might actually be entirely vegan!) for a very good price.
Service is discrete and efficient.
