yummy food in a beautiful space! - Edit
The food was tasty and served in generous portions, but what really caught my attention was the space itself. It has huge windows and is filled with plants, making it a really pleasant space to spend time.
Read moreAs another reviewer already said, I would recommend sharing dishes here, because the portions were so large. I couldn't even finish the slice of chocolate cake in one go! And/or maybe bring your own containers to take leftover home (I think they use styrofoam).
Pros: extensive menu, generous portions, beautiful windows & plants
Cons: so much food that you can't possibly try it all, the building the restaurant is in is a bit dirty

Mediocre - Edit
The food wasn’t great. I’ve had a lot of vegan Thai food and this definitely wasn’t up to par. Their cake was awesome though.

Very tasty food and huge menu - Edit
So many options here and we were very happy with everything we ordered. They offer both fake meats and tofu/vegetable options. Fair prices, friendly staff and a nice (albeit slightly shabby) vibe to the place. Do not be put off by the street entrance - once up at the restaurant door you’ll be pleased!

Very extensive menu and everything sounded amazing. That is until the furry little mouse running around the dinning room catches your eye.

Really lovely place - Edit
Lovely cafe with very cosy atmosphere. I ordered lunch menu that comes with soup, main course with rice and your choice of spring roll or 2 fried dumplings. It only costs $9 and to me it was a great deal as the food was really tasty. Staff were really nice too.

Good but slow - Edit
I had a pretty good meal here: wonton soup and pad thai. I thought everything was very flavorful and the vegan chicken and shrimp were a great change from my usual vegan choices at other Asian restaurants. The wontons were a little mushy in texture but the flavor was there. The only downside to this restaurant was the speed. The server took almost 10 minutes to come and take our drink order. It’s not a deal breaker, but after traveling around the city all day we were ready to go on food. The prices were reasonable for the size of portions.

affordable and tasty - Edit
They offer a variety of vegan mock meat based meals starting from soups, appetizer and all the way to desserts. Decently priced and certainly good to have a hot meal in cold Boston! A decent meal should be from $15 to $20

My Thai cannot be beat, seriously. They have so much food. It comes out so quickly. The atmosphere is pleasant and the staff is always friendly. The food is all absolutely delicious and very fairly priced. I have been here more times than I could ever count. The golden triangles are to die for, by the way. Don't leave without trying those.

One of the best - Edit
What's up with all the reviews saying their food is bland? This is one of the best Thai restaurants I've ever been to, vegan or non. Everything I've tried off their menu has been intensely flavorful and well-made, so don't be scared off by the bad reviews.
Read moreThey have everything from basic noodle dishes (their pad thai is the best I've had anywhere) to more extravagant dishes like a pumpkin curry served in a whole sliced pumpkin. (This was amazing, btw.) Would be a great place to bring a date if you really want to impress.
The stairwell to get to the restaurant is a little sketchy but once you step into the restaurant it's a really beautiful space, with tons of live plants and huge window views of Chinatown + the Theater district. Window seats are a great place for people-watching pedestrians down below.
Everything I've gotten here has been delicious, but I think my favorites are anything with the half veggie chicken. Their mock meats are excellent and even omnivores I take here enjoy them.
It also needs to be said that the people here are amazing. I left my phone here by accident and drove all the way back to NH without realizing it. They went above and beyond to help me get my phone back, even though I wasn't able to make the drive down to collect it for three days. I'm extremely grateful.
One of the best options in Boston for sure.
Pros: All-vegan menu with authentic Thai dishes!, Beautiful space, Pumpkin curry!
Cons: Parking situation can be tricky

Decent not great - Edit
I was really hopeul about this place, but alas Nothing special here. Green curry was somewhat tasteless. Salad bland. Big focus on faux meats is interesting. I went with tofu which was fine. No beer.

Huge menu, great food! - Edit
We walked right by this place the first time we went. The restaurant is on the 2nd floor, and the front door is not the most obvious from street level. It's a big place that can accommodate large parties. The menu is huge - with all-vegetable dishes as well as many "fake-meat" options as well (which my partner loves!) We loved everything we ordered and can't wait to go back.

Huge menu, incredible food! - Edit
Don't fear the entrance! :P It's on an upper floor and the staircase look a little dodgy but open up to a big, beautiful space! As with all all-vegan restaurants, it's just so nice to not have to worry about any animal products in your food. And when I say their menu is huge, I MEAN IT! The staff was so sweet, too. A recommended stop when in Boston.
