The WORD is out on this place! PACKED

I ate here tonight and people were still pouring in the door at closing time! It was standing room only. Without too much knowledge of LA's Vegan Thai options, I'd have to say this place must be the best. I had the Egg Plant Brown Rice dish, and while it was good I wanted to dive into everyone's dishes at the table next to me, but rather than getting kicked out I figured since I live in LA now I can just keep coming back :) The Pad Thai / Yellow/Red Curry / Lentil Plate all looked amazing! I also had the fresh spring rolls which were good, but I'm not a fan of the rice condom style wrappers. Even though it was beyond capacity its a testament to the quality of service here that the waitresses were RUNNING to make sure no one was waiting. When's the last time you've seen hustle like that? I wish dishes were less oily. Maybe when I become a regular I can get some "oil free" options!
This is THAI LA vegans! Don't miss out!

Pros: Thai, Fast, Staff

oh my god, the pancakes

this place rocks. service was just OK, but i can handle waiting 20 minutes for a cup of tea when i've got the best pancakes ever to munch on. the "chicken" wrap with tahini dressing was also divine. the hash browns were nothing to write home about, but they were good. awesome smoothies too.

Pros: best pancakes ever, comfy & cozy/not cramped, really friendly

Cons: slow service

I love it!

It's so nice to have a vegan restaurant in the area! The food at the Vegan Joint is delicious. I highly recommend Breakfast Burrito #4, the yellow curry, and the soy chicken dinner dish. The staff is always really helpful and friendly, and the food is served quickly. Every meal I've had there has been wonderful.

Pros: amazing food, good prices, nice atmosphere

Cons: street parking
