Little kitchen cooking Thai vegan dishes like pan-fried noodles, pad thai, fried rice, soups, and curries. Food is served in to-go ware, and most dishes are offered with vegetables, tofu, and optional soy meat add-on. Quick service style where you order at the window-counter, take a number, and wait to be called when your food is ready. Shop formerly operated as Thai Teak then added this eatery in 2011. March 2025: hours fluctuate so call ahead and let HappyCow know. Open Mon-Sun 11:00am-9:00pm.

Highly Recommend - Edit
Veganized thai cuisine in Santa Monica, not too far from the pier. Just a 5 minute drive. Loved all the options to choose from and that the dishes were all gluten-free. Would definitely recommend anyone to come here and support their business. The staff are also so friendly, packed my leftover food even though it wasn't her food that they prepared.

Good - Edit
Very affordable and generous portions. I really enjoyed the dumplings and the Pad Thai. The rice felt a bit plain, and they don’t serve much tofu—it’s actually very little. I’d say one dish is enough for two people.

Pad thai - Edit
Pad thai was okay, I had better ones.

The noodles are YUMMMM and the portions are GENEROUS. Easily have leftovers. So easy to bring family and friends here - long tables indoor and outdoor (sometimes have to wait for seating)

Disappointing - Edit
I was here a few years ago and it was delicious, sadly I might just have ordered wrong. I had the pineapple fried rice and some parts tasted a bit burned, the rice didn’t have much flavor in contrast to the super sweet pineapple and raisins (which I didn’t enjoy) also something tasted a bit off, like a veggie was going bad. The flavors of the dish altogether didn’t work for me. The Thai tea was pretty good in comparison.

Disappointing - Edit
Expected it to be a new favorite based on reviews, food stuck to disposable plates on multiple dishes and everything was bland / needed soy.

I would have given this restaurant 5 stars, but my husband said his was pretty good, but nothing spectacular. I had the pineapple tofu curry and Thai iced tea and mine was delicious. 4.5 stars would be a more accurate rating. Definitely worth a visit.

Recommend! - Edit
Excellent!! I usually don’t leave reviews but thought this place really deserved a good one! We ordered yellow curry, pad Thai and vegetable fried rice with tofu with peanut sauce on the side. Everything was great, and everyone was happy! I especially enjoyed the pad thai which can be sometimes hit or miss. Service was friendly and very fast. Thank you Thai Vegan!
