Chicken in my food!

There was some chicken in my vegetarian drunken noodles. Watch out from this place!

Good food

The vegan options aren’t marked and I hate that - especially when the staff are hard to understand. But the food we settled on was really good! Highly recommend the chive dumplings

Pros: Delicious

Cons: Vegan not labeled , Not a lot of options

Fun choices

This is a fun restaurant in downtown Burlington that offers a little bit more than just regular options at most American Thai restaurants.

For instance, they have homemade ice cream - so you can sub in mango ice cream for your mango sticky rice. However, it is not vegan, so be aware of that. The traditional mango sticky rice is great for vegans!

The vegan appetizer selection is more fun here - you can have spring rolls or egg rolls, same thing, just deep fried for the latter. They also have chive dumplings, which are a fusion of the concept of dumplings and deep fried goodness.

They have salads, a stir fry and pad Thai for entrees that can be vegan. The prices are decent and portions are generous.

Be sure to specify your food preferences! The menu has some items listed as vegan and gluten free on-line, but not on paper, and they do not match.

Pros: Vegan appetizers, Mango sticky rice portion, Nice staff

Cons: Menu markings vs. actual food sensitivities may va

Excellent food

Can’t recommend the drunken noodles with tofu enough. Bonus for a good selection of cocktails

Very flavorful food

I had a great curry that they assured me was vegan. It was delicious. A great choice if you're in downtown Burlington and need a place that can serve both vegans and carnists. The proprietor was very professional and helpful in assuring me that the food was vegan.

Pros: tasty vegan food, Location

Cons: not the least expensive place to eat

Excellent Thai food with lots of vegan options

Came here with my friend Paula who is not vegan. She said her potpourri of seafood in a coconut curry broth all contained within a carved-out coconut was phenomenal. Meantime, the owner Bobby, who is very familiar with veganism, said that nearly everything on the menu could be made vegan except for the tom kha soup and the som tom. I had a great pad thai with tofu and veggie spring rolls. Also great ambiance and wonderful music.

Pros: Food, Ambiance, Knowledgeable owner
