Not safe for vegans/vegetarians

If you are vegan or vegetarian - please beware and be careful! I saw this place on Happy Cow as somewhere that can accommodate vegan options and decided to give it a try. The cashier was really friendly and helpful in answering our questions. We ordered the pad thai noodles and requested to make it vegan which usually means that the fish sauce and oyster sauce will be removed. When we received our order, to my surprise, there was fried egg pieces all over in the pad thai. The menu does not list that as an ingredient in this dish. I've also never seen fried egg in pad thai before (its usually in other Thai dishes) so I called the restaurant to confirm. The cashier checked with the chef and sadly confirmed that they did indeed place egg in the pad thai. This is really scary because egg is an allergen (not just a dietary preference) and that could have been potentially dangerous to add it in a dish where it is not listed as an ingredient on the menu.

In addition to this, we were going to add a soup to our order and the cashier informed us that all of their soups are made with chicken broth so it is not vegetarian. Again, on the menu, several soups are listed with a vegetarian sign notating that it is a vegetarian dish. To use chicken broth in a dish that is labeled vegetarian is not okay.

I'm thankful they refunded our full order but I want to warn those with dietary preferences or allergies to be very careful with getting food from this restaurant.

Cons: Not aware of ingredient risks
