Large portions but slow service

Food was average, but the portion sizes were huge.

Tofu in black bean sauce was good. It was a big portion. We also tried the coconut rice and enjoyed it - reminded me of rice pudding. Quite sweet and not as dry as, say, Indian coconut rice. Fried broccoli was exactly as it says - huge portion of broccoli.

Spring rolls were so greasy they were not edible.

We found the service to be quite slow but the staff were working flat out and it was extremely busy, so I think perhaps we just were unlucky and there were a few big tables who ordered before us.

Great food

Food was tasty! Portions were good! The waitress was very kind and patient with understanding our needs. We got the broccoli, mapo tofu, avocado maki and red curry with tofu and veg instead of meat. We finished everything… cleaned the plates 🤣. I even asked for less oil and they did a great job with that.

Pros: Fair amount of options, Tasty food, Good tofu

Cons: Vegan isn’t clearly labeled

Best Asian food in Playa Blanca

Have tried other Asian restaurants in Playa Blanca and it definitely has the edge! Plenty of choice and have the option of Thai versions as well…staff very helpful and friendly with ordering and food was absolutely delicious, spicy tofu black bean was a fav…non vegans tucked in to vegan choices. Worth booking a table, if you want to sit outside on a balmy evening

Pros: Great delicious food, Friendly helpful staff , Plenty of choice

Nice Asian

Really lovely food. We had the spring rolls (nice and tasty if a bit oily) tofu with black beans, veg green curry, fried broccoli, udon noodles with veg and coconut rice (bit sweet for me but husband loved it). Everything was very fresh and the staff were really helpful and accommodating. Would recommend as a nice change from the padron peppers and Patatas Bravas which seem the only other options here!

Pros: Very friendly and helpful staff, Generous portions

Cons: Long way from home!

Tasty

I think the menu may have changed slightly from previous reviews.

I had 'Tofu with Chinese Sauce' and wasn't sure what it would be, but it was a perfectly nice soy/ginger/garlic sauce and veggies (possibly black bean but couldn't see any beans). Really big portion and very cheap!

All the staff were lovely. A little bit of confusion when asking about vegan options so just decided to keep it simple. They did also have a miso soup and mapo tofu on the menu. As well as a few different vegetable Thai curries which I'm not sure if they were vegan or not.

Pros: Cheap, Nice staff

Absolutely delicious

There was a little initial confusion over whether the Thai curries were vegan or not, but what I ended up having was incredible! I had vegetable spring rolls, coconut milk rice, and tofu in sizzling black bean sauce. The spring rolls were the freshest I've ever had and absolutely full of veg. I think coconut milk rice is my new favourite thing (it's nothing like coconut rice, it's very creamy and delicate but flavourful) and my main was delicious. My family had meat options and loved them too. The staff were lovely, the wine was good, and we were given limoncello to finish our meal 🥂

Friendly and helpful staff

The staff were great. We told them we were vegan upon arrival and they helped recommend dishes. Great to have some tofu options with lots of other dishes to try! The flavours were toned done a little, possible to suit the customers. We got some mapo tofu and, although delicious, not as spicy as we would usually have.

Great vegan options

The waitress is very accommodating towards veganism. The food is super delicious. We ordered vegetable spring rolls, seaweed salad, udon noodles, Thai green curry with veg, and fresh smoothie.
