Thai International - Edit
Steady little place in Townsville. Enough vegetable entrees and mains to choose from, happy to take egg out of Pad Thai etc. If you feel like an easy Thai meal for dinner it's perfect. Old fella running it is cheerful and loves a laugh!

Okay but pricey! - Edit
Accomodating staff who were happy to seat us without a reservation. We did end up waiting over an hour for our food, so be prepared for a wait. Lady who served us didn’t have a great understanding of English so we had to explain no egg, meat etc. or perhaps she was new? However made it difficult to order food. They also forgot to bring out some food items we ordered. Food had nice flavours but were pretty small portions for the price. Overall an okay option in Townsville.

If I could I would give 5 stars! - Edit
Loved the place! It is absolutely beautiful with a great atmosphere. The owners/waitress were super nice - never had a waitress so kind. We didn't book ahead (definitely should have) and she successfully found a table for us even though it was really busy and booked out. The menu has some dishes marked as vegan but in the end you can have quite many made vegan. We had tofu skewers for an entry, followed by pad Thai (they can make that vegan) and a curry (I don't remember the exact name but started with P). All three dishes were super delicious but our favourite was the curry!

Just beautiful - Edit
Great choice of vegan options. Lovely Staff happy to answer all questions. Just amazing flavours to all the dishes we tried. I shared Penang curry and mushroom soup with a friend. The curry was amazing. I found the soup very salty but my friend didn’t so our tastes differed there, but we loved both dishes. They also have some amazing teas on offer too other friends tried and loved. Another friend had the tofu and veg which was also amazing (I tried it too). Great staff and atmosphere. The place was full when we were there yet we didn’t feel there was much of a wait for the food at all. Also very reasonable. And you can actually have wild rice!!

Amazing Food - Edit
I am new to a vegan diet and didn’t think there would be many options to eat my favorite foods so when I went to dinner at Wild Rice I was so happy with all the choices. I had the tofu skewers which were nice but the sauce really made the dish. For main I had the massaman curry…wow!!! And for next level yum I had the crispy banana with coconut ice cream….I was in heaven. I cannot wait to go back. The staff were so lovely and the owner is so friendly. This place is a must for anyone looking for great vegan food and great service. 5 Stars!! #Veganuary

Love this place! - Edit
I wish I could give this place five stars - one my my fave places go eat. The owner is so lovely. The food is delicious. My personal fave is the mushroom soup (ask to add tofu). But all the dishes are incredible. You can wait a while sometimes but that’s because they can get super busy & the wait is well worth it.

Brilliantly rich - Edit
First night out in Townsville, I was pleased to so easily find such a good restaurant to eat at!
Read moreBefore you even eat the restaurant itself is beautiful. Tucked away in a narrow colonial building the interior is wonderfully and tastefully decorated.
The food is also a treat. We had a Pad Thai made vegan (it’s not on the menu, but they’ll do it anyway) and their Lao mushroom soup. For starters we had Lao tofu skewers.
The tofu skewers were good, a little different to what I expected but still nice, especially with the sauce.
I had the Lao mushroom soup. Which comes to you deconstructed, so you have to put all the dry ingredients and noodles in. Just the soup itself was incredibly rich and tasty, and all the different things you add give it a great texture. I’m glad it was deconstructed. Gave me plenty of space on the plate to make a mess!
My wife had the Pad Thai, which once again was richer and saucier than other pad thais I’ve had. Not much more to say other than delicious.
And the service was great!
Pros: Lots of vegan options, Friendly staff, Beautiful decoration

Sehr nett - Edit
Die Dame im Restaurant war sehr nett und aufgeschlossen und empfahl uns leckere vegane Gerichte und tauschte sogar das Essen meiner Freundin anstandslos aus, weil es für sie zu scharf war. Insgesamt war es sehr lecker und früsch gekocht mit viel knackigem Gemüse und gutem Tofu. Definitiv eine Empfehlung
Read morePros: Viele vegane Optionen, Guter Alkohol (Cocktails)
Cons: Angestellte nicht alle kompetent (vegan)

Worth a visit - absolutely wonderful! - Edit
This is my favourite restaurant in Townsville. Almost everything on the menu can be made vegan (if it already isn't), and the food is so fresh and very clearly uses ingredients of excellent quality. Literally some of the best curries I've ever had in my life.
Read moreIt is on the expensive side, and quite a nice restaurant.
I should also mention that the owner is one of the sweetest humans I've ever met.
I think everything has changed a lot since the last reviews on HappyCow, as there's no way anyone could rate it any less than 5 stars!
Pros: Awesome variety of vegan choices, Incredible flavours, Healthy!

thai international - Edit
I've been to this restaurant several times and the food has always been yummy. They have a typical thai menu, they don't have vegan options on the menu but there's several vegetarian options that can be adjusted at request. The restaurant has a very relaxed atmosphere to it and nice thai decor. Do be prepared to spend quite a bit of time there and gather a bit of patience as service is very slow and quite poor as its very hard to get the waiter's attention.

Cons: slow service
