Didn’t like the pad Thai

No flavors , really small dish , almost an hour of wait. All the tofu you see is what I got. Not much veggies

Pros: Nice staff

Cons: Long wait, Small tofu amount

Sehr lecker und günstig

Leider etwas unschön an der Hauptstraße gelesen, jedoch sehr leckeres Essen und eine große Auswahl an vegan/vegetarischen Speisen. Leider hat alles ziemlich lange gedauert, die Getränke sogar länger als das Essen. Der Laden ist sehr voll, wenn man mit vielen kommt, lohnt sich sicherlich eine Reservierung. Wir haben nach 10 min warten einen Tisch bekommen.

Pros: Lecker, Günstig, Viel vegetarisch

Amazing tofu balls

This has been our go-to place for food on Koh Lanta. They do not have that many vegan options but we really enjoyed everything we tried. They have a couple of pages with vegetarian options with a few clearly marked vegan items such as vegan pad thai and vegan fried rice. However, in our opinion their best vegan menu item is their fried tofu balls which you can get as an appetizer or on top of their veggie curries. Also, everything here is really affordable.

Pros: Great taste, Good prices

Cons: Not completely vegan

Bestes vegetarisches Essen!

Eine der besten vegetarischen Mahlzeiten, die ich auf meiner Thailandreise gegessen habe! Große Auswahl, authentische Gerichte, kein Touri-Lokal, super günstig, freundliches Personal!

Pros: Geschmack , Auswahl , Preis

Extensive menu, tasty food

Lots of options and really good price. Be aware that the cheaper options on the menu, eg. Rice topped fried tofu red curry is not very saucy at all and the main focus is the tofu, not the curry. If you want an actual curry you need to select the slightly more expensive of stir fried red curry with tofu and veg. Despite the other reviews , our food came out very quickly, even when it was quite busy in there.

Not special, waited for 2 hours!

We went eating here yesterday. It was absolutely horrific. We saw in the comments it could take a little longer so we were prepared. It was 8.30 pm zo we thought most people had eaten by now, but were still put in a waiting line. 3 more people, that’s worth the wait.

We ordered vegan Pad Thai, Paneang with vegetables and noodles with mushrooms. Everybody around us getting their dinner, also people who came far after us. Locals were favored! It was absurd! When we friendly asked how much longer it’s gonna take after 1,5 hour, they pretended not to understand and talked Thai back. Not customer friendly.

After 2 whole whole hours we finally got our 3 little plates with the noodles and some veggies on a plate. Was this worth the wait? No.. can’t say that.
It was nothing special, normal Thai food you can get everywhere.

When I paid, I heard a lot of complaints from people, asking where their order is and people who cancelled their order.

We will definitely not eat here again!

Nothing but great - but better make a reservation

- Plenty of vegan options to choose from
- Good price for the value
- Extremely tasty

E.g. Menu in pictures (2 Drinks, Appetizer, 2 Main courses for 320 Baht)

If you go for dinner expect to draw a number and wait. Pretty busy these days.

Pros: Cheap prices , Tasty

Cons: Long waiting time

Bon et pas cher

Pas mal de choix végéta*iens à des petits prix ! J'ai goûté la salade de papayes, les légumes aux noix de cajou, les pâtés impériaux et le tofu grillé. Pour conclure : les beignets de banane au chocolat. Parfait et toute petite addition ! Par contre, un peu de monde avant d'avoir une table. L'attente vaut la peine !

Food was good but had to wait 2 hrs

Lot's of vegetarian and vegan choices, the staff also knows the difference :)

The Food was very good but we had to wait 2 hours in order to get to our table. After that, the food came quite fast but 2 hours is a lot!
We were there at 7pm, maybe earlier or later would have been not as busy. Nevertheless I would recommend making a reservation beforehand otherwise you might have to queue up.

Pros: Food was good, Nice staff, Nice people in the queue

Best food on the island!

Wow! I was here during Covid and now back: best food on the island

Cheap and delicious
L
Felt sorry cause they were packed with people during dinner! It’s a good sign though
I went for lunch first - Massaman curry tofu
Which was delicious! Amazing curry and way better than the other day (previous review!). Tofu bites are cute😄
Had to come back for dinner same day: ordered the tofu garlic black pepper dish and it was stunning as well
Really good food, friendly family running this place
Will go back for my last meal on the island again
Dishes start from 50thb vegan pad Thai to max 100! So cheap and so delicious
Wow

Edit: lunch again - Laab tofu was 10/10 again
Amazing food
Highly recommend
Probably the best in Thailand

Updated from previous review on 2023-12-05

Pros: Authentic and delicious food, no straws, Tofu Laab, Massaman curry

Favourite spot

My first tine I had their veggie massaman curry which I licked the bowl clean afterwards. Another time I just hopped in for mango sticky rice which was delish and then last night I chose their laab tofu (not traditional as the tofu was fried/puffed) but it was delicious! I wish I had some burger sauce to dip the tofu in as it was epic!
I can alwaya rely on consistency here and good, friendly service. The chefs are shredders!

Pros: Massaman curry, Laab tofu, Service

Cons: Sadly no alcohol as they are Muslim

Delicious and so vegan friendly

Beyond delicious! A big vegetarian section, they get veganism completely, and really good prices. 70baht for an an incredibly good curry and rice. The tofu is fried in small pieces which is so good. Even fried tofu Laab salad! We went 3 times in 3 days and not even staying near there!

Tasty and cheap

They have a lot of vegan choices, the massaman curry is one of the best I ever had. I have gluten allergy and they were able to adjust the recipes and make a lot of dishes gluten free (not all of them though).
Passion fruit-mango smoothie was really flavorful too, not just ice and sugar as many other places do.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Tasty, Cheap

Best Pad Thai Ever

Get a motorcycle and come here immediately!! The food here is amazing. I had vegan pad thai ( best I’ve ever had ) 50 baht and the tofu Penang rice plate 60 baht. Absolutely incredible. I’ll be eating here several more times this week for sure 😎

Update, we have been here 3 times in 2 days it’s that good 😊

The most INCREDIBLE tofu

Would give this place 5* if I could. After hearing a lot of people recommend Yawee, I had to try it for myself and my goodness was I not disappointed! During our time in Koh Lanta we visited 3 times, once at lunchtime and twice in the evening (when sadly the food took a while to come). My favourite dish was by far the Fried Tofu with Massaman Curry! #Veganuary

Pros: Great price , Best tofu ever

Cons: Long waits in the evening

The best tofu dishes

Tried the vegan Pad Thai, the massaman curry tofu & the garlic and pepper tofu which were all sooo good!! I would order the massaman curry and ask for extra sauce the next time. Highly recommend trying these dishes, will definitely come back.

Pros: The tofu is amazing

Cons: Expect to wait for the food but it’s worth it

5 stars from me!

This is the best tofu dish I have ever had (and I live in Thailand and order tofu daily!!) we got the garlic pepper tofu (it was AMAZING). The friend tofu massaman, stir fried veggies and mango sticky rice were also very tasty. They also have a lovely cat 🐱 I’m gonna come back to Lanta just for this tofu

Pros: So much flavour in each dish, Super cheap, Really friendly and kind server

This place deserves 5 stars

I was so surprised when I saw the big selection of vegetarian/vegan food. I mean the dishes are the same as in every other Thai restaurant on the island but how they cook and serve the food is just so much better. It overjoyed me that I had crispy Tofu once to the Massaman curry. I'm not even a big curry eater but this meal was outstanding. Don't come here without trying that once. I still can't believe that I only paid 70 Baht for this big portion.
