I don't think they know what a vegan is lol

Me and my other half are both vegan and we ordered the vegan nachos to share..when they came they were covered in dairy cheese!! I think they must get confused with vegan and vegetarian. We told the waitress, and to be fair, she was really nice apologetic about it and made some more for us without cheese on which was good, but they weren't that great lol this place is great if you're vegetarian, but if you're vegan double check what ever you order!

This is a review for the 12/79 Chao Fa East Rd.

Menus are the same. Chao Fa East Rd is outside with fans / Viset Road has A/C

Lovely environment. Surrounded by garden with running water features.

Great music playing in the background.

Good and friendly service.

Vegan and Veggie options marked on menu. (With many of the items if wanting vegan let them know you do not want the cheese.)(The vegan fillings are a Malaysian meat substitute of mushrooms, beans and tempeh.)

Serving: Vegan, Vegetarian, Lacto-ovo-vegetarian, Omnivore

About 15 Vegan choices on menu

Mozzarella Cheese Sticks 140b - Very large sticks with an excellent batter. Says it comes with Marinara Sauce which I was really looking forward to. Sadly the sauce was some kind of salsa blend that tasted nothing like Marinara. Suggestion: ask for their Garlic Mayonnaise Sauce or fresh lemon to squeeze on instead. Makes them very yummy!

Enchiladas with a veggie filling 240B Comes out on a hot plate. Corn tortillas, sauce, veggie filling of mushrooms, beans and tempeh with cheddar cheese melted on top. Comes with a side of beans, rice and corn. This dish was superb! The sauce they used was the first genuine Mexican tasting sauce I have come across in Thailand. No skimping on the cheese, it was smothered in a thick layer and the cheese around the edges was grilled crispy on the metal plate! I love crispy cheese. This is a wonderful dish and very filling. I would have been full without having the appetizer beforehand.
They will happily omit the cheese for vegans.

A classy touch at the end when a chocolate came with the bill.

If you enjoy Mexican you are encouraged to give this place a try.

See photos for pictures of the menu.

Some ads say 1pm to 11pm others say 3pm to 11pm

Pros: Fantastic food, Peaceful setting with garden and waterfalls

Cons: Marinara sauce
