one of the better options in town

My favorite dish is the red curry with tofu; it's creamy, spicy and the ratios are great. If you don't like spice then try the vegan banh mi, it's also good. I really don't care for the veggie bowl, it is cold, mushy, and bland (more like a salad than a noodle bowl). It is expensive but tips are included in the price (they don't note this anywhere online but staff told me this when I ordered in-person). Many of their materials are #7 compostable but, unless I'm missing something, there's no place to actually compost it. The view is very nice, it's within walking distance from downtown, and it's a nice stop to pair with a visit to Reeder's Alley.

Accessing the restaurant will be difficult if you have physical disabilities. To avoid the steep staircases you'll have to walk up the steep incline of Reeder's Alley and enter through the side alley, which is tight, uneven, and still requires a few steps. Both the indoor and outdoor spaces are very tight.

Pros: several vegan options, labeled menu, fun location (not ADA friendly though), tastes good mostly

Cons: serves flesh, expensive, menu items can be hit or miss

YUM all around

The veggie bowl was SOOO good with marinated, baked tofu, noodles, picked veggies, etc. It was hard to choose from their vegan options, so I’m going again tomorrow to try the veggie bahn mi. Plus, this is the first place that I’ve been to with the option for vegan Thai iced tea! I hadn’t had one in years and ended up downing two over the course of dinner. YUM. Highly recommend!

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Vegan Thai iced tea!!!!, Delicious

Cons: None

Favorite restaurant in Helena!

Such a great experience. It tastes like a vacation we still haven’t been on yet. And it always feels like it too, sitting out on the porch, and just going down to this historic area.
Excellent food and service.
We are so happy to have this great restaurant here in Helena.
We like to go there a couple of times a week.

Pros: Peanut sauce, Ban mi, Thai iced tea with coconut cream

Cons: Meat on the Facebook page picture, Animal products
