Delicious Food

Went here twice in 1 day! I was able to order off the vegetarian menu and ask for the usual no egg, no fish/oyster sauce etc. I had the stir fried yellow curry, fried rice and Pad Lao and all 3 dishes were delicious.

Pros: Good Price, Very tasty

Don't come here

Asked if vegetarian could be made without egg, fish, and oyster sauce. Had a firm, no! So don't waste your time.

Cons: No vegan options

Good selection of vegan options

There is a separate vegetarian menu, but if you tell them no eggs, fish or oyster sauce, they can make it vegan. I eat here 4 times when in Vang Vieng as it was one of the better restaurants in town and fairly cheap. I even came here for breakfast the morning I was leaving. The breakfast menu didn't have anything I would want to eat, so I just had the Pad Lao and an Americano, which was probably the best coffee I also had in Vang Vieng.

Cons: Unfriendly staff they don't smile

Great vegan options

We went to Vela twice while in Vang Vieng as we loved the food. They have a separate vegetarian menu and most dishes can easily be made vegan. The restaurant itself is very nicely decorated and I loved eating outside. It is a very busy restaurant so I recommend coming early. Cash only.

Pros: Separate veggie menu, Tasty food

Good Soup

The pumpkin soup (55k) was very hearty and staff were aware of veganising food. Nice atmosphere, google maps says permanently closed but that’s not the case.

Tasty food and good location

Vegetarian page in the menu as well as some added dishes hand written on (tofu options), just specified vegan / no egg and no problems, food was tasty and a good price. Air conditioned inside which was great, lovely staff and good prices!

Pros: Friendly staff, Tasty food, Good prices

Nice menu choices

Has a separate vegetarian menu which can be made vegan.
Not mind blowing like other places in SE Asia but I would certainly go back and try several different items.
