Ok

Pretty excited to see a Vegan Thai restaurant so had to try it out. Such great reviews but for me and my party we thought it was ok. Pricey, small portions. We had the Mama Oat which was supposed to be spicy but could have been more fiery. The noodles were literally the instant ‘mama’ noodles so were quite disappointed to be served this. Also ordered the Nam tock with tofu and couldn’t quite describe the soup base. We also shared the aubergine dish with Holy Basil but couldn’t taste the Basil at all. I really wanted to like and enjoy this place but it just didn’t do it for us I’m afraid.

Pros: It’s Vegan

Cons: Staff weren’t all that attentive , Expensive , Cheap instant noodles used

Yum, fab food and lovely staff

Came here for dinner on a Friday night, loved that it was tucked away in a great little spot. Food was delicious - stand outs were the yellow curry noodles and chive cakes. We also had a few of the ice teas, favourites were the Mango ice tea and Roselle ice tea. Rounded off the evening with some mango desert (with sweet sticky rice). Great vibes, yummy food, lovely people.

Pros: Food was delicious (even for omnis), Friendly staff, Fun location

WORTH THE TRIP

We came here after a day at the museums, and this was arguably the best part of the day!

Food was fantastic, even accommodating our 2yo.

We will definitely come back!

Pros: Service, Food, Atmosphere

Cons: None

Lovely Thai close to the Natural History Museum

We visited for a birthday lunch and it was spot on. Fresh, tasty and not too heavy, the food was delicious and the location is pretty cool too.

The fake calamari was the pick of the starters, but the mains were inseparable. All of them were amazing in their own right, packed full of flavour and well spiced (we don’t mind a bit of spice, but it wasn’t too much at all).

Would fully recommend coming here if you love Thai food.

The only downside was the jasmine tea, which was a teabag and not that tasty.

We had:

Dumplings (Gyo Grob Luk Sa Pai)
Spring roll (Por Pia Krob)
Salad (Som Tum Thai)
Calamari (Pla Muek Tip Yang)

Vegan chicken green curry (Gaeng Keow Waan)
Aubergine stir fry (Pad Ma Khia Muang)
Pad Thai
Vegetable and tofu stir fry (Pad Pak Ruam)

Pros: Attentive staff, Tasty Thai food, Nice location

Cons: Jasmine tea

Delicious food

One can't really see the restaurant from the street, there's a narrow entrance alley, with a small outdoor seating area in front, then the restaurant, divided into 3 seperate rooms. It did feel a bit 'enclosed' inside, with only the front room having a window.

Loved the food. Didn't have to wait long.

We had
Appetizers:
- deep fried dumplings £8.50
- mushroom and tofu skewers £8

Mains:
- vegan 'cod stir fry £15.50
- crispy 'pork' stir fry £13.50
With jasmin rice £3.25
And sticky rice £3.75

Service was friendly, bit reserved.
Toilets upstairs. Lovely decorated (liked the traditional wood locks). Dryer to dry ones hands.
Didnt see an accessible toilet.

They automatically add a service charge of 12,50% to the bill...
Which in total, does make it fairly expensive.

Simply the best Thai in London

Vegan or not, this place has the best Thai food. I’d know because I’m married to one and he says so.

This is my go to vegan comfort food and I’ve tried almost every dish. My recommendation is to go for the “fish” dishes or the “beef” fried rice. But whatever you choose it is amazing.

Pros: All food options

Amazing thai food!

Wonderful vegan restaurant; the food, interior, staff - I cannot fault it. The two times I've been here so far, I've had some of the best food I've ever had, vegan or otherwise! 😊

Cucina thailandese eccellente

Vastissima scelta di piatti, tutti vegani, molte alternative al pesce veg ottime, ambiente carino confortevole servizio eccellente, cameriere gentilissimo che mi ha inseguito per 300 m nel disperato tentativo di riportarmi lo zaino lasciato lì.
Molto piccante anche dove non è segnato!

Pros: Cibo, Servizio

Great selection

Awesome food and to appease 2 vegans with a carnivore, they allowed our friend to get something from elsewhere and sit in the terrace with us (don't quote me on this)

Everything Delicious

Every option we had was delicious! Tom Yam Soup, Chu Chee Pla Tip Tod, and Pad Kee Mao (spicy) were very tasty. The sticky mango rice is also a yummy dessert. Service was very fast and it got busy quick, so reserving a table is recommended. The only downside are rather small portions.

Just Beautiful 😍

Me and Fabio came here for our Valentine’s Day dinner date earlier this year and we were blown away! We ordered the Thai Green Curry and the Tom Yum Hot Pot! Delicious looking menu in a cosy cottage style spot. This needs to be a must visit for all vegan!

Delicious Vegan Thai Food

Mali Vegan Thai offers delicious, authentic Thai food with a 100% vegan menu. Highlights for me were the classic pad Thai and colour-changing butterfly pea iced tea. I also have to point out that the service was incredibly fast without compromising on freshness, flavour or temperature.

I have to admit, it's completely overwhelming to visit a fully vegan restaurant rather than having to decide between 1 or 2 options and you really do feel spoilt for choice. Mali is a must-visit for vegans and meat-eaters alike in the area.

Pros: 100% vegan menu, Fast service, Large range of choices

Cons: A few dishes weren't available

Yellow Curry Noodles 🤤

The food is super good tasting just as good as normal Thai food with meat and such (if not better). The prices are very reasonable and the service is awesome and quick, with the food coming out very quickly! This is a great place!
This is my sister’s favorite restaurant now and after trying vegan Vietnamese food, this is very nice! The yellow curry noodles are the best.
Wait- take back what I said before. This is better than Thai food with meat!

Some family favorites in case you are interested 😄:
Yellow Curry Noodles 🍛
Purple Rice 🌾
Chicken (vegan) green curry 💚
Mango sticky rice ice cream 🍨 (wish they would have real Mango sticky rice!)

Loved it

This place was an accidental, lucky find. It’s so cute and the staff were welcoming, attentive and kind. Loved the food (tofu/veg stir fry, deep fried dumplings) and would go again and recommend to anyone in that neighborhood.

Aroi maak (very delicious)

I've just moved to London after 9 years of living in Bangkok. I was excited to try Mali Vegan, and it did not disappoint. Great authentic flavours and a good amount of spice, which I've been missing. Although, obviously, in London prices, the rice could be cheaper or a larger portion provided. Staff were nice, food was quick. I'd definitely come back when craving proper Thai food, lovely place to bring family and friends.

Loved it!!

Delicious vegan Thai food! Went with a friend and we shared the summer rolls, vegan cod with morning glory, and fried rice with vegan beef; my favourite was the summer rolls. We also had the Thai milk coffee, which was really good. Amazing flavours, lovely food, and beautiful restaurant (also liked that the vegan ‘meats’ didn’t feel overly processed or hyper-realistic — tastes and textures both very good). Will definitely be coming back!

Pros: Great food, Lots of flavour, Good price

Nice spot

I enjoyed the place and the food. I would say that the food came out so fast it seems that it must have been at least partially pre-prepared which I would not have expected at a place like this.

Great Thai Restaurant

Went here for dinner and everything was great. We got the mushroom & tofu skewers and the crispy spring rolls as starters. Then pad kee mao (drunken noodles with vegan duck) and pad si ew (stir fried rice noodles with vegan beef) for the mains. For dessert we had the golden mango ice cream with sticky rice. Drinks we had the Thai iced milk tea. Everything was spot on. Lovely dinner.

Delicious vegan food, my non-veg parents loved it

Everything is vegan! Ordered the Thai iced milk tea which was delicious and the kao soi noodles. It was spicy but enough for me to handle with my terrible spice tolerance. Everything was authentically made and prepared & tasted excellent.
