Will please not only vegans

I came here with three omnivores. The service was friendly. The food was amazing. If I’d had more time in Sydney, I would have come here again to try more of the dishes. I would also happily eat anything we tried again ~ although probably not the mochi as it is difficult to share and while it tastes nice, the black sesame doesn’t look appealing. The noodles with the ‘pork’ were our favourite.

Amazing!

Tasty authentic Thai food. I had the pad kee mao, Thai milk tea and bread with pandan coconut custard and they tasted amazing!

Great.

Buffalo cauliflower was yum and the arancini balls were possibly ever better? Don’t recommend the hor mok. Really quite busy for a weeknight. Pretty loud inside from all the other tables talking and I found it super hard to hear my friend across from me. Anyway my third time, will of course go again, the food is great. Next time: splurge on the entrees, get fewer mains.

Pros: Some seriously good entrees, Best Thai entrees I have had really, Fast service

Cons: No curry puffs 😱, Loud (maybe needs fewer tables?)

Tasty Tasty Tasty

Wow, the restaurant is amazing. The staff is friendly, the decor and ambience are nice and the food is to die for. Everything was perfect. Sadly we were too full to try any of the deserts. The dishes are presented beautifully and the taste is perfect. My absolute favourite was the braised eggplant which was juicy eggplant covered in thick batter and delicious sauce. I was eating the leftovers for breakfast the next day and it was still yummy.

More please

The flavours are right but the portions are small. A good amount for a little turtle!
The dishes are pared down to a few veg, with no mock meat. I had the massaman curry; even though I knew it wouldn't have any mock meat, the oblong plate holding four potatos in a puddle of sauce just looked lacklustre, like a side dish rather than a main.
The three stars are just for the flavour. What little there was was at least very tasty.

Sensational ....

I organised a dinner for my Sydney Vegans and Vegetarians Meetup group and our table was blown away with the choice of food on the menu ... and the flavour when our food arrived. There were six of us and we ordered quite a few dishes to share. Everything was delicious. Highly recommend

Pros: Fantastic menu, Reasonable prices, Great location

Too expensive!!! Bad service during lunch

The taste of the food is good. Service is crap, i asked whats popular here, waitress said “everything” 🤦🏻‍♂️. Menu said “oven baked tom yum rice” i asked is it stir fried, she just answered with a “yes” 🤦🏻‍♂️. Just answering for the sake of it. $20 for a plate of vegetables.

It was ok

The decor is really beautiful, but I found the food to be just ok. Definitely have taste, but nothing kicks or make it special.

Very disappointed

I ordered a noodle dish and asked for it without onion, I received just noodles and some carrot, no other veg!

It really is THE best Thai food!!

Like so many of the other reviews say, it really is that delicious!
There is a buzzy air of happiness when you walk into Little Turtle, as everyone there is either having a great food experience, or know they are about to.
Each time, we have been there, it is tempting to go back to the same delicious dish from the time before but I really recommend trying as many dishes as you can.
They are all a taste sensation of beautiful Thai spices, textures and herbs. So fresh too!
To name but a few - The red curry arancini, The sticky sesame wings, The complicated noodles, The classic Thom Yum Soup, Green curry fried rice, Mushroom fried rice, The Baos....the list just goes on.
Can't wait to go back again and again to work through the whole menu : )

Pros: Tirelessly great menu. Buzzy vibe.

What a find!

Buzzy, busy restaurant at the very top of Stanmore Rd. Food and service are excellent. We had Complicated Noodles (very complicated, we nearly sent it back as we saw no noodles) and Thai Crepe Dumplings. The noodle dough in both was light and delicious. If I could score this restaurant more than 5, I would.

Great Vegan Thai

Amazing and complex flavours that hero vegetables. Don’t expect mock meat here it’s all about beautiful fresh veg. Love the mushroom toast and all the coconut curries for main. They put a lot of emphasis on plating which is nice. Everything tastes incredibly fresh and a lot of love goes into everything I’ve tried here. Serving sizes could be bigger but that’s only because I want more of the deliciousness. Personally I think the pad Thai doesn’t suit vermicelli noodles and would be better as a flat rice noodle (personal preference) flavour was still good.

Pros: Fresh beautiful vegetables , No Msg, Innovative contemporary options

Cons: More expensive than its non vegan Thai takeaway , Serving size for price could be bigger

Really good

Went here as a party of 4, 2 entrees and 4 mains set us back $98. Extremely good value and food is well presented - some of the most honest clean vegan food we've had in a while
