Little kitchen cooking Thai vegan dishes like pan-fried noodles, pad thai, fried rice, soups, and curries. Food is served in to-go ware, and most dishes are offered with vegetables, tofu, and optional soy meat add-on. Quick service style where you order at the window-counter, take a number, and wait to be called when your food is ready. Shop formerly operated as Thai Teak then added this eatery in 2011. Open Mon 11:00am-10:00pm, Tue 11:00am-9:00pm, Wed-Sun 11:00am-10:00pm.

Disappointing - Edit
Expected it to be a new favorite based on reviews, food stuck to disposable plates on multiple dishes and everything was bland / needed soy.

Delicious - Edit
I would have given this restaurant 5 stars, but my husband said his was pretty good, but nothing spectacular. I had the pineapple tofu curry and Thai iced tea and mine was delicious. 4.5 stars would be a more accurate rating. Definitely worth a visit.
Read morePros: Lots of choices, Very tasty, Quick service
Cons: Outside seating isn't ideal

Recommend! - Edit
Excellent!! I usually don’t leave reviews but thought this place really deserved a good one! We ordered yellow curry, pad Thai and vegetable fried rice with tofu with peanut sauce on the side. Everything was great, and everyone was happy! I especially enjoyed the pad thai which can be sometimes hit or miss. Service was friendly and very fast. Thank you Thai Vegan!

Wahnsinnig lecker - Edit
Super leckeres Thai Essen. Sehr großzügige Portionen. Wir hatten 2x das Pineapple Tofu Fried Rice (je 12$) und 1x die gedämpften Dumplings 10$). Vom gebratenen Reis mussten wir was übrig lassen. Es war kein Problem, das übrige Essen in eine Box umzupacken und mitzunehmen.
Read moreStandort ist auch super. Einfach 20 Min vom Santa Monica Pier entfernt den Strand entlang laufen und schon ist man dort.
Definitiv eine Empfehlung!
Pros: Geschmack, Preis-Leistung, Dumplings

Fresh - Edit
Very fresh and great tasting food. Generous portion sizes. I wish the veggie rolls had little less lettuce and more of other veggies though.

Best Vegan Thai Curry! - Edit
It’s in a vegan food court with the vegan sushi place, curries about the same price as a fancy sushi roll so I had a green curry with a side of white rice. Fast service and full of variety - not only the usual carrots, broccoli, tofu, zucchini, and Thai basil, but also chunks of acorn squash and Japanese eggplant. Menu is very clear about what is gluten free and I felt as great as it tasted.
Read morePros: Vegan, Gluten free, Variety of veggies

delicious, affordable, cute - Edit
We enjoyed eating at Thai Vegan, it's such a cute little place and the lady was so friendly. I had the tofu fried rice and my friend ate the thai curry with rice. Big and filling portions, also the Thai iced tea with soy milk was so yummy! My rice was just a bit dry and I couldn't put sauce because it was too hot for me. Also I think the food was reasonable priced! It bothered me that they use takeaway stuff even if you're eating there, that's not very eco friendly.

Not much flavor - Edit
We only tried the pad say ew, veggie soup, and tofu satay. The pad say ew was huge but mostly just greasy noodles- little tofu and veg added and not much flavor. The veggie soup had lots of veggies and was okay, not great flavor- just mildly salty. The tofu satay had amazing texture, but the peanut sauce tasted rather perfumy/floral.
Read moreThey have outdoor seating, but it is not clean, no ambiance (parking lot), and low tables, so not a great place to dine outside
Pros: Excellent tofu texture
Cons: Not great flavor , Outdoor dining not nice

Agradável jantar em restaurante tailandes em Santa Monica - Edit
O Thai Vegan fica em uma área muito agradável de Santa Monica e bem próximo à praia.
Read moreSão variadas as opções no menu e os preços são convidativos considerando a região.
Meu jantar foi o "prato do dia", Spicy Udon.
Realmente spicy, mas gostoso.
O restaurante fica colado em outro vegano, o Narita Suhi. Vale muito à pena conhecer os dois, se você tiver tempo.

Great food, terrible seating, hot af inside. - Edit
Love the food here and the service is lovely. Unfortunately it’s too hot inside to sit there and the seating outside is uncomfortable and at annoying height. You have to fold your body in half to get low enough so you don’t spill half your plastic spoon full on the way to your mouth.

Fresh and yummy and affordable - Edit
This place was perfect after some time spent walking around Santa Monica area - fresh and satisfying. The green curry had this super creamy squash in it and plenty of other veggies which were perfectly cooked. Dumplings had mushroom in them which was a nice touch. Not the most flavor PACKED Thai food but still super yummy and fresh and good portions for the price.
