3.5 stars: nice food, but expensive vegan versions

Their food is tasty and authentic, so worth a try! However, please be aware they sometimes have 1 checkbox on their ordering form for veggie ánd vegan, so you have to specify vegan yourself. Otherwise, you’ll get a veggie dish, which might contain egg!

I tried all vegan dishes and they tend to be either spicy or mildy sweet. Pad Phrik Khing Kai, Pad Kie Mao, Pad Makkua Jauw and Pad Bai Krapauw are spicy and savoury. Pad Thai Saowapa and Kai Pad Med Mamuang are sweet and savoury.

The best dish they have is Mango sticky rice. It's absolutely yummy: fruity, creamy, sticky and with the right level of sweetness.

The restaurant is not really cosy and quite hot in the summer, but ok for a quick meal. They have a customer toilet as well.

A con is that vegan dishes have the same price as other variants, even though they omit egg and use tofu as protein source. In my last order, they barely put any tofu in it.

Must visit Thai restaurant in Utrecht

Lovely place that is a must-visit if you want to eat vegan in Utrecht for a great price. 5 out of 7 dishes can be made vegan (and/or veg)! The chef is a (former?) vegan so she knows how to make it work!
The food tastes amazing and the plates are filled with veggies. It arrives fast at your table with a good temperature. Small family business with a extremely friendly staff. It’s a non-formal place and I’ve eaten here many times over the years with friends and partner.

Pros: Amazing taste, Plenty vegan options, Great prices

Cons: Restaurant is small, Not a ‘fancy’ place
