bland, tasteless and rude
One of the worst restaurants I have been to. Went there even after reading the mixed yelp reviews we thought it couldn't be that bad. Trust me if you love thai food this place is not for you. The food was one of the worst thai food I have ever had. I don't want to even call it thai food. I am vegan and usually always support vegan establishments because I support what they stand for but I will advise you to stay away from this restaurant. We went there and ordered the Tom Kha soup one with tofu and one with the vegan chicken. When it came out it tasted like they just dumped a can of coconut milk in some vegetables and brought it out. It was so sweet it tasted like a dessert nothing like Tom Kha there was no usual thai spices. We couldn't even bring ourselves to drink two tablespoons of it and left it. Our main meal came out which was pad thai with tofu and a curry vegan shrimp with tofu in an actual coconut (cannot remember the name of this dish) my goodness how could somewhere that claims to be authentic thai food mess up pad thai. It tasted like plain noodles my husband's coconut dish tasted like nothing. Both dishes were so bland absolutely zero taste. The meals came out extremely fast so I knew they were not marinated well. I have had vegan pad thai before but this was not even near what the dish is suppose to taste like. Of course we left back all four meals. The worst part of the experience was when my husband went to speak to the manager or owner and waitress about the meals they were so rude. My husband said that he would pay 50% of the meal even though we left back all of the food and barely touched it. The manager insisted that he paid 100% of the meals. When my husband said it was unfair because we didn't eat the meals they became even more rude to him. The manager asked him how much he wanted to pay and my husband indicated he would pay 50% they told him no he had to pay 60% of the bill my husband just to get out of that place he agreed. The owner or manager and waitress then starts to tell him to get out how he has no money to use here and he came here with no money and to get out and don't ever come back that we were not welcome here ever again as such we left. This place is absolutely a disgusting establishment and I will not advise anyone to patronize them. I am sorry to have to write such a bad review for a vegan restaurant but save your money. If I could give this place zero I would.
Pros: vast range of vegan options
Cons: water down food, bland no flavour, rude owner and staff

Used to be considerably better - Edit
I used to love going here, especially when they first opened close to 10 years ago. But the food quality has declined considerably in the past year. No matter what you order, it is basically the same brown sauce with vegetables. No thank you -- I'm off to discover better food elsewhere.
