Good until it wasnt

I've been here 2 or 3 times. The last time, the food was so poorly made I had to ask for my money back and it's scared me off for at least a year now from returning. I really hope it's a one-time occurrence, but felt compelled to share my experience. As an alternative, I recommend Lemongrass Thai in downtown Livermore (Eggplant tofu) or Saigon Safe in downtown Livermore (from noodles to tofu dishes, I like). I have never been disappointed.

Pros: Staff

Cons: Taste

Really tasty food!

I'm very impressed by their separate vegan menu. It is huge! My boyfriend and I ordered pad Thai, spicy eggplant (+tofu), samosas and coconut rice. Everything was super tasty with decent sized portions. Food is served family style - and again the portions are decent sized! The service was good and I want to go back to try more food! They even had vegan fortune cookies at the end! #veganuary

Best Around

Excellent, best Livermore option for menu choices as of 2022. Many great vegan options with a variety of flavors, very friendly owner who is almost always there. I actually talked with the owner and he made a separate fully vegan menu after some discussion (missed an egg item but it will be updated).

Try the rainbow salad, and the Shwe noodles.

Superb, flavorful vegan options!

Garlic green beans, veggie samosas, fried oyster mushrooms and crispy tofu garlic noodles - and that's just a start! While not an entirely vegan spot, there are three full pages of vegetarian options, and every item we asked about was vegan. Highly recommend for an Omni group without compromising on diverse vegan options.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, very flavorful, great staff

Cons: Menu not marked explicitly vegan versus vegetarian

So many options!

So many delicious vegan options. Has omni options too so it's a great place to take omni friends/family. Tea leaf salad is my favorite! Staff is also great!

Pros: Lots of vegan options.

Delicious Burmese Food

What a pleasant surprise! The menu had 3 pages of vegetarian items. However, the owner assured that they were actually vegan. The food was delicious and the owner was quite helpful in helping us make choices. They do serve non-vegetarian dishes and according to the others in our group, they were also tasty. In other words, this restaurant can accommodate many eating styles.

You know a restaurant is good when, after finishing your meal, you look at menu to decide what you will try on your next visit!

Pros: Delicious food, Many vegetarian/vegan options, Staff very knowledgeable and helpful

Cons: Many selections are deep-fried.
