Good food, great selection - Edit
Had the plant based duck, green curry and dumplings. I enjoyed the food and was good portion sizes. Great for a meal with friends but not really date night ambience

Great laksa - Edit
Sunflower is a small, cafe-style place. It doesn't look much but the laksa I had (the special of the week) was great. Huge portion, cheap and delicious!
Read morePros: Big menu - lots to choose from, Great location - just a 2 min walk from Queen St, Large portion size

Perfection! - Edit
My all time favourite place! Food is consistent, tasty, and filling. I always order at least 2 mains and a side when I go, so I can take some home for laters haha! My fave dishes are the crispy chicken on rice, and the thai green curry.
Read morePros: Amazing food, Always consistently good, So much food for your money

Nice place but not the best food - Edit
Little cozy place. I ordered noodles after the recommendation of the waitress. It wasn’t bad but not the best I tried.

Lovely place - Edit
It's a small restaurant with a lovely vibe. It's so nice to have so many options to choose from on a menu. Will definitely go back once in AKL again.

Tasty food, friendly people - Edit
Stopped in as I heard they did a great ‘fish’ and chips (the New Zealand national dish!). It was hard to stick to that plan as there was so much that looked great on the menu! I enjoyed the food and the lady serving was very friendly and helpful. I definitely hope to visit again before I leave NZ!

No frills, simple and quick vegan food - Edit
Sunflower Thai is a great place if you're looking for super quick and simple vegan Thai food. You can count on a filling and satisfying meal every time. I love the satay chicken dish! Only rating 4 starts as I don't love that you hear the microwave going off while you're dining. It makes me question how fresh the food is since it's being reheated. Nonetheless, still a great place.

Lightning Quick! - Edit
Arrived half an hour before closing and the staff were happy to take my order. I've never had a Pad Thai arrive so quickly and was super fresh. Highly recommend 🥰

Read morethe food we tried:
- the pan fried dumplings
- the teriyaki mushrooms with rice
- the ‘fish’ with aubergine and rice
- the taro pancake
all were very nice! our faves were the taro pancake and the dumplings.
Pros: lots of options , good pricing, speedy service
Cons: location - no windows, not their fault tho!

Honestly the best - Edit
Such a good range of options and everything is honestly so delicious. I even think your non vegan friends would love it too! Although was a little confused when I figured out rice wasn’t included! Also- we ordered through Uber eats and paid for the delivery only to discover that they actually offer free delivery themselves! So if your reading this ready to order on Uber eats- try calling them first!
Read morePros: Free delivery, Delicious, Great range
Cons: No rice

Nice dinner at an Auckland vegan institution - Edit
I love the Sunflower, and I’m sure it’s Auckland’s oldest vegan restaurant. It’s no frills and you have to walk through other restaurants to get to it, and I enjoy that tucked-away, hidden-gem feel. Five of us shared a few dishes, including the fish and chips (not particularly shareable despite being in the share plate category of the menu), green curry, crispy chicken, panfried dumplings and pad Thai. Generally the dishes were quite delicious, although the chicken was quite dry and didn’t come with a dipping sauce. Sadly they were out of the fish cakes, which had been highly recommended to me (and apparently I’d had before according to my last review of this place). The curry was creamier than last time (also based on my previous comments) and was nicely spicy. Prices were reasonable except for (again) the chicken, which was $30 for not a huge bowl of fairly low-quality nuggets.

Cons: Expensive, dry crispy chicken
