Perfect place

We love this place, very big and rich with flavor dishes, lady's are nice and helpful, and the price is very cheap compared with the size of the portions. Any dish you choose is the right one.

Pros: All, Salad , Sticky rice

Cons: Fried tofu , Pad Thai , Currys.

Some of the best food in Thailand!

We came here for dinner on our first night in Kanchanaburi and it was so good that we came every night after that! We tried all the curries, pineapple fried rice, curry fried rice, khao soi, pad see ew, and of course, Khao soi.

The food is made right in front of you and is packed full of veggies and tofu. Potions are generous and everything is soo flavorful. The family who owns the restaurant is very friendly as well.

Don’t miss this place!

Pros: Amazing flavors, Generous portions, Friendly staff

Amazing

Everything was so good, the pad thai a little too spicy for us. They also know a lot about things that are glutenfree!

Pros: Knowledge of food, Speak good English , The FOOD

Good

It's hard to figure out which dishes are vegan, and unless you know some of the Thai language, it will be impossible to know for sure. I also did not get the rice that I ordered.

The food that did come was tasty and very filling. The price is also fairly good. I should not complain too much 😅

Pros: The taste of the food, The portion size

Cons: Staff speak very little English

Great everything

Despite being listed as a vegetarian restaurant it’s seems to be a fully vegan restaurant. Looked like everything on the menu was vegan.

The portion sizes are between moderate to large. I ordered three items and just barely couldn’t finish it.

Also a comfy, well lit, semi-outdoor setting. Food was tasty and quick. Women spoke decent English. Such good price for such a great experience. Don’t know what else I can ask for.

AMAZINGGG

we spent 2 nights in kanchanaburi. We ate twice at On’s Thai Isaan. I think that says enough.
If that doesn’t:
Really tasty food, prepared right in front of you.
Big portions.
Many options on the menu.
Staff speaks good English and is really nice.

Pros: Staff is really nice, Tasty fresh food

Fusion Isaan food

Various vegan options. Pretty full during peak hours. The ingredients e.g. vegetables may not be conventionally local and may remind of Thai restaurant set-up in foreign countries. Delicious and homey service, however.

Pros: Vegan options, Spiciness level options, Homey and sincere

Amazing!!

Such lovely staff and honestly the most delicious vegan green curry I’ve had in Thailand. So much flavour!
I think some of the food is vegetarian as I saw a couple of dishes with egg in, on the menu, but she put my mind at ease, confirming that my dish is vegan and doesn’t contain fish sauce etc…
Will go back there again tomorrow to try something else. Really enjoyed the good vibes there too!

Kind owner, good food

On’s is one of the few vegetarian restaurants around and it has many southern and northern Thai options. Overall, the food was ok—though I wasn’t a fan of banana leaf salad. The owner is very friendly and I was very tempted to take a course with her

Pros: Lots of options

Our favourite place in Kanchanaburi.

We went there for dinner every night during our stay. On is lovely and her food is tasty and freshly cooked, not expensive. Almost every dish can be made vegan. Highly recommended!

This woman can cook!

This restaurant alone makes Kanchanaburi worth the visit. On is very sweet and her cooking is wonderful—best Tom Yum soup we’ve ever had!

After years of talking about it we found ourselves back in Kanchanaburi for the third time and finally took On’s cooking class. It was a lot of fun, very inspirational and good value for money—600 baht per person for three mains and a dessert, so between us we made eight different dishes! We got print-outs of the recipes to take with us and now we reguarly make these dishes at home.

It hurts my heart that this place still serves animal products. I hope someday soon they will go fully vegan and I can give them the 5 star rating they deserve!

Pros: On is lovely ❤️, great value 💸, best Tom Yum ever 🤤

Cons: not vegan 💔

Amazing food and cooking class

We loved it here. We ate here twice and did a cooking class with On which kept us supplied with food for three meals. All of the food we ate was delicious; even those we made ourselves. Stand outs were the massaman curry and the spring rolls. No mock meat is used and veg is the star of the show. On is a kind and helpful teacher and the cooking class is fun and good value- it costs 600 baht per person for 3 dishes dessert and rice (double that amount of dishes for two people). You pick what you want to cook from the restaurant menu and get recipes to take home.

Pros: Lots of options and good value, Nearly fully vegan menu, Lovely happy people

Cons: Cash only, There is some dairy and eggs in a few dishes

Excellent food

Very good vegan or vegetarian food. They ask if you want your food veggie or vegan. The soup, massaman curry, green curry and pad thai are amazing. You should definitely taste the home made ice tea.

If you arrive after closing time (Google says: 8PM) but the blinds are still open, they will help you very friendly!

Pros: Fresh cooked, Home-made ice tea

Best vegan food in Kanchanaburi

I've been going back to this place for over seven years and visiting every time I go back to Thailand. The owner is so friendly and welcoming and cooks everything fresh to order.

The menu isn't huge but it's everything you would expect and need. The Thai Iced Tea is one of my favourites and the Pad Thai & curry dishes are fantastic too.

I hope to keep visiting this place for many years to come.

Pros: quick servce, friendly owner, delicious + cheap food

Cons: can be some mosquitoes!
