love it!

this is only pour 2nd time here. I can't believe we've only been here once before, it is so good
6/12/24:
I had the Panang Curry for the first time. The vegetables were very fresh. Today, I will try a different curry 🍛, but I won't compare them because they are different.
I like this restaurant because they have freshly cut ingredients.

I loved the shrimp pad tai 😍

I had not had fake shrimp in forever and I absolutely loved the shrimp pad Thai here. The portion was more than enough for me!
Will definitely be back for more😄

Good food but doesn’t meet the menu’s description

Food was good but the portion sizes were not as pictured. The 3 Flavors Fish didn’t have any fish flavors but it was good. The pot stickers were not steamed as written on their menu, they were deep fried. The service could have been better. Ambience was okay. Overall, found the food a little pricey and although good food, it didn’t meet our expectations from the menu.

Word of Mouth Is Golden

Veganic Thai was personally recommended by Stina of Dreamy Nail Spells, and now I know why. Food is fresh, well prepared, tasty, and satisfying.

Pros: Quality of Food, Service, Very reasonably priced

Great flavours

We shared the tofu larb and the duck curry. The flavours were really amazing, we asked for spice level 5 out of 10, but for us it wasn’t that spicy. It didn’t detract from the great taste and excellent cooking. Good portions, too, we were very full after what we ate

All-vegan Thai food in the heart of Hillcrest

My test for a good Thai restaurant is always the Tom Kha coconut soup. Well, Veganic Thai Cafe passed with flying flavors. It had the perfect balance of flavors. I'll be eating here a lot?!

Pros: The red curry with mock duck was amazing! , Best Tom Kha in San Diego! , 100% vegan.

Cons: Parking can be challenging.

Great vegan thai spot

Took my omni family here and they didn’t realize it was vegan. place was packed nonstop for the holidays, and i can see why: panang curry was really good, the tofu supreme dish was also just right.

Pros: ambiance, food, wait staff

Cons: hard to get a table on busy days, understandably

Decent Thai

Veganic is decent overall. As an all-vegan spot, I admittedly give them some benefit of the doubt. For context, I don’t usually go out of my way to eat here, but most of the dishes I have tried were good. The only thing I would say I didn’t like was their Pad Thai, which was pretty sweet and did not “hit the spot” like I hoped. From previous visits, I remember liking their fried rice and curry. Overall, the menu is large and worth a visit checking out on your own if you’re in the area, but I wouldn’t say it’s the best veg Thai in San Diego.

I wanted to like it

I would certainly eat here from time to time if I lived here, but if you only have 48 hours in San Diego I wouldn’t go here.

The som tum was particularly odd—possibly this is a dish that fundamentally doesn’t work without fish sauce, since I’ve had another very odd version (sweet but no umami) at another vegan Thai spot. However, the panang curry wasn’t quite right either.

Curry is good. The rest is not so good.

We came here a couple’s years ago and got a couple curries. We loved it so much we went back twice in one trip to San Diego! We were so excited to go back this trip, but it was a major let down. The main takeaway here is - go for the curry, nothing else.

We’ve tried the red curry, green curry, panang curry, cream cheese wontons, pad see ew, and pad thai.

The curries are delicious. They are what you expect them to be and are pretty consistent with other Thai eateries.

The wontons are okay. We’d give them 3 stars. They taste like they are fried in old oil and the corn and avocado is a little weird but overall they are edible.

The pad thai is atrociously sweet and not at all what it should taste like. We didn’t technically order this…It was a kitchen error, but we wouldn’t order it again.

The pad see ew is seasoned weird. The sauce is traditionally supposed to be a sweet soy, but there wasn’t any of that coming through in this dish. It’s almost like they’re trying to make it taste like beef and it was really grainy in texture. It wasn’t good. We wouldn’t order it again.

Pros: Curry is good

Cons: Too sweet, Not authentic

Great stir fry

I really enjoyed my stir fry in this LGBTQ friendly space. The tempura however had a batter that was too thick to really be authentic.

Pros: Fresh veg, Friendly service
