Rough round the edges but good overall

Ok so I don’t know about charging $19 for a ‘carrot salad’ if ya can’t get papaya, fine but that’s an exotic price for a common veg. And holy Thai… be ready if you order hot. Chef ain’t playing! Toe curling spice! Main course was better. Good flavz and nice array of veg though just a little soft in my opinion. No prizes for presentation! Not the best Thai in town but not bad at all! Service was quick and friendly and very kind and accommodating checking for vegan requirements. No fish or oyster sauce used in any curry paste!

Pros: Super accomodating big vegan menu, Good flavour. Good spice, Quick and friendly service

Cons: Not the cheapest , Little Lack lustre presentation

Few greens and mushies and other good veg in there at Thai Chef's Restaurant in New Plymouth

It doesn’t look like a huge portion here but it was generous! at Thai Chef's Restaurant in New Plymouth

‘Carrot Salad’ Was supposed to have green beans but just carrot. Order hot spice at your peril at Thai Chef's Restaurant in New Plymouth

Delicious curry!

Such funny and friendly staff, happy to accommodate. Tried the green coconut milk curry, was delicious! Will definitely back to try more.

A good meal....with some work!

We enjoyed our meal here but other than our rice rolls, very little else is vegan straight off the menu. Our server was very helpful and checked dish recipes for us which was great.

Lots of egg noodles & oyster sauce used here so you need to be asking a lot. Even the satay has milk in it which was disappointing.

The fried rice and rice noodle meals we had were very good. Tasty & good portions with fast service from the kitchen.

Nothing we saw on the menu was marked vegan & maybe 1/4 of the rest of the whole menu offered a vegetarian option.

We've definitely experienced easier vegan dining in other Thai restaurants.

Pros: Good service. Moderate prices. , Generous portions. Good flavours.

Cons: Very little is vegan without menu changes.

very tasty, heaps of options

Really good thai food with heaps of vegan options. vegetarian and dairy free clearly labeled on the menu just specify vegan when ordering to avoid any sneaky fish sauce etc. Staff are super friendly and accommodating.
