Reviews of Sunflower Thai Vegan Restaurant

C.

If you're a vegan, this'll be your heaven. So many different options, whether you like mock meat or just plant based tofu and veggies, there's something for everyone. (Do yourself a favor and try the 'mutton: kebab and then the fried 'chicken'.) Bring your meat eater friends too! They'll adore trying things and they'll admit it's good!

Y.

Small thai vegetarian restaurant on High Street, and it always get busy during dinner time. Crispy chicken is one of their famous dish here and I second that, so crispy and delicious. Salt & pepper tofu was good as a side dish but not as a main IMO as it was a little dry to eat with rice. The portion seems to be smaller now, but still really good value if you are looking for cheap eats in city. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this place.

The restaurant is located in the back of what looks like a food court. Keep heading back and follow the signs until you reach the restaurant. The menu is quite extensive and it is all surprisingly vegan. I ordered at the counter and then grabbed an empty table. I was given water after sitting down. I grabbed the pad Thai and it was quite tasty. The flavours were nice and a bit different, I'm guessing due to the addition of other veges that you don't normally see in it like beans. It was a really nice place for a really good meal without meat.

G.

Taste: 5/5 Portions: large Price: $-$$ Atmosphere: 5/5 Highly recommend the spicy chicken on rice, the rest of the food is also really good but

A.

This place is a treat for vegans - must go. They have a huge selection of vegan dishes. We ordered spicy chicken, pancakes, green curry, pad Thai and curry puffs. The pad Thai was the best. My vegetarian friends loved the food, non vegetarians found it average. Staff was very friendly and helpful, place gets packed very quickly.

J.

Good delicious food. Quick service. Friendly staff. Perfect place for vegans and for non vegetarians who want to try vegan food. Would visit again.

T.

A beautiful place for vegetarians and vegan lovers. All the dishes from menu are worth to try. Good seating area. Quick service and friendly staff. Paid parking available as situated in the city centre. No onion and garlic used in food so suitable to dietary restricted people.

J.

Always a place for a great meal: fresh, flavoursome and nutritious. The pseudo meats are delicious, satisfying for the carnivorous ones.

J.

I have never been a big fan of vegan/vege food but wanted to give it a go. Let me say this was amazing !!! The flavours were so yum, the salad was well seasoned and the spring rolls were so delicious. I ordered the spicy chicken on rice, the kumara rolls and the spring rolls. I also got lost trying to find this place and the lovely lady from the restuarant guided me on the phone and brought my order outside so that I didnt have to walk much further. What great customer service. Highly recommend, thank you so much.

l.

This place is well suited for vegetarians and vegans, even though the menu may say chicken or beef it's actually all plant based. Nice food, reasonable prices for serving size. Staff seemed to be friendly enough. Premises could do with updating though.

J.

Cosy and casual atmosphere in a little corner of High street, with great quality food that tastes truly authentic, and a good price for the amount of food served. The chef definitely know their way around their ingredients, and presentation is always meticulous. Usually enough sitting space around, however can get busier around dinner time. Oh, and did I mention that everything in vegan? One of my personal all-time favourite restaurant which I take my friends and family to time and time again, and never ceases to fail! Huge thumbs up, highly recommended.

J.

I absolutely adore Sunflower cafe. I have tried many different items on the menu and thoroughly enjoy the marriage between Asian and vegan food. The staff are consistently helpful, sweet, and warm. The restaurant is always clean and cosy. It is a great place to go both with groups or to eat alone. This is easily one of my favourite eating venues.

D.

Super nice Thai food you wouldn’t even realise your missing the meat! Perfect for a night off the meat or for any vegan, great menu with a wide choice or dishes! Nice staff and pretty cheap, be sure to check it out 😆

A.

A sweet little nook hidden away on High Street in the murky depths of a tower. Some dishes are better than others but the pad Thai is always spectacular and they cook it quickly despite often having a full house. Affordable, generous portions, and good service!

b.

Good quality food but little expensive for the quantity. The restaurant is vegan and everything is no onion no garlic. So good options for Jains. Much recommended.

G.

Edit: 29/9/19 - Went to Sunflower last night. Service and food had increased so much It was great.. Good food. Last time we came they were out of Tofu which was extremely strange for a Vegetarian and/or Vegan restaurant and this time they are out of mock oysters which I love. Service is so so...expect to go upto the counter to place your order. Also last time we came an ordered item was forgotten. Some music would be nice as well. .... Went back to the restaurant a couple of weeks ago. Service had gone absolutely down hill. Things on the order were missed. Had to go up and remind them we ordered drinks. My disk was a starchy glunk of a tasteless mess. Never going back. Sort it out Sunflower. TRAIN YOUR STAFF!

K.

Absolutely delicious food and friendly service. We got the chicken satay with rice and the pad thai and were very satisfied. Also, there's 1+1 on food here with Zomato Gold.

N.

Wow. Fast service and amazing food. This little place is tucked away but worth finding. A fantastic menu filled with vegan goodness and wonderful friendly staff to match.

M.

Amazing food. The Restaurant setting is very very basic, but the flavours, and quality of dishes make up for it. Tried the Sesame Pancake , Fish cakes, Duck and fried Chicken on Rice, Fish and chips. Kiss the chef the preparation put in to make the fake meat feel and taste similar to the real thing Amazes meat eaters. They are on Uber eats and you get take away.

M.

Our absolute favourite place in Auckland. Incredible food, all cooked from fresh ingredients. The peanut "chicken" was sensational!

D.

Large menu of fully vegan Asian Style food. Has soups, noodles, rice + veg/fake meat, cheap dumplings, burgers and chips. Can be very busy. Delicious and inexpensive.

c.

Litterally the best vegan food i've ever had! The "meats" are so simillar with the real one and the taste are so amazing!

I.

Really high quality vegan faux meat 👌🏽 Full of flavour. Also the food there always comes out nice and fresh. The salads service with the vegan protein is delicious also! The only thing is location. Not having the best access to this place due to the $$$ parking

M.

My favourite place to eat in Auckland!! Excellent food and service, don't know how people that visit could complain about either. Great value, portion sizes and big range to choose from. Personally the 'chicken' peanut sauce is my favourite.

R.

Very tasty vegan food & good price! And 100% fresh orange juice!

V.

Awesome Vegan Food. Not for those who love deep fried and oily and spicy food.

K.

Delicious vegan veggie dishes at reasonable prices. Wide range range of dishes and friendly staff. This is a local honest restaurant not a fancy upscale place. Perfect for lunch or dinner with friends. I love the spicy mock chicken!

A.

Quite sweet place .... The steamed dumplings tasted yuk inside and the portions are tiny and my main meal didn't come with rice and they didn't tell me ...so had to order separately ...then had to pay for a container to take away. Honestly I feel the waitress seemed terribly tired out.. was yawning alot. This was my second experience and I would t recommend or rush back anytime soon.

C.

Hands down one of the best Vegan restaurants I have been to in Auckland. The amazing service really brought the entire experience to life. Highly recommend.

C.

What an amazing selection of all vegan food with very convincing meat substitutes! Their dumplings dish is also very uniquely presented...a must try!

D.

Our family thoroughly enjoy Sunflower Restaurant. They have a wonderful selection of vegan meals at great prices. Our favorites are the crispy "chicken", the massaman curry & the "mutton" kebabs. Service is always fairly quick too 😊

H.

Great Thai and vegan place! The sour and spicy noodle soup was delicious! Affordable prices. I recommend

L.

100% Vegan and yummy Asian foods in Auckland CBD.👍👍 👍

B.

Heads up, no credit cards accepted. Tricky to find, it's in the back left corner of Number 1 Dumpling. The street entrance looks like an office entrance, so keep an eye out. It's worth finding!

Y.

Fast service and great tasting food.

H.

100% vegan. Many options and good quality. I'm not vegan and I like it. That says a lot.

P.

Outstanding food First visit to a vegan restaurant Highly recommended!!

R.

Yummy and affordable vegetarian food. Very impressive mock meats and wonderful service. One of my favourite spots in Auckland.

C.

I have visited this place 4 times while working in town, I really like the food and I want to try everything on the menu! But the reason I give a 3 star rating is because there is not a very pleasant atmostphere. Sort of dark and dingey, there's only ever one girl taking orders and bringing out everybody's food, so people begin lining up waiting for the girl to even acknowledge them haha, I sat and watched this happen as I waited for my food on 4 separate occasions. The food always taste good and always takes longer than they say haha Just needs a boost in moral and a cosy setting and I will 0 eat every meal here for the rest of my life

J.

Sunflower is amazing! So many options to choose from, great location, fantastic for vegans and non-vegans. I got the spicy chicken with rice and veges and it was so good, the chicken is a winner for sure, I would happily order again. It's a casual place so it makes a good chill lunch or dinner with friends. Highly recommend - I'll be returning soon!

B.

Excellent food and staff highly recommend. Would give it 6 stars if possible. Great staff as well, go out of way to make it a delightful dining experience. Tea, juices and great asian and thai vegan food.Well done.

M.

Although is hard to find the restaurant but finally tried the food was so much delicious. My family and friend love the food so much!! Great! 😘👍🙏🏻

C.

Loved it! Personally, not into mock meats but they also have tofu options. Their dumplings, money bags & curry puffs are delicious! Great for non vegans, too. Would love to see this place move to more sustainable options when it comes to their takeaway containers etc.

E.

LOVE Sunflower Thai Restaurant! The food is so so yummy and everything is vegan so that makes it even better. The staff are always so nice and friendly. My husband and I love coming here- we highly recommend this restaurant 😊

N.

Delicious dishes with non veg names and veggies content.

R.

We came here on the advice of a local resident and enjoyed our hearty portions with varied, excellent flavor. We are not exclusive vegans and have eaten a lot of authentic Thai food while in Bangkok. This restaurant delivered on flavor, service and their smoothie/juice offerings were well-sized and refreshing. A hidden gem - for casual dining at a clean place with great value and taste. The "slideshow" video pictures of their dishes on closed-circuit television is a helpful touch to narrow down their extensive menu choices.

k.

Very nice food and customer service. Definitely going back and recommending to others. Go vegan go strong 💪

S.

Amazing, hands down the best vegan food I've ever had! Unlike most vegan restaurants, it is reasonably priced at $15 for most dishes, which are quite large and substantial! My only complaint is that the chicken burger is quite bland but I still give 5 stars because everything else tastes INCREDIBLE! Not to mention the service is PHENOMENAL! I wish I made enough money to eat here every day but this is definitely the place I go to to treat myself 😍 My favourite dishes are the chicken peanut rice, soy duck, and crispy chicken!

A.

Really nice food and not too expensive. It is more of a cafe that serves dinners as well so it's not a flash place. But there are heaps of vegan and gluten free items on the menu. You have to ask to check for gluten free. Recommended. But note that they don't accept credit cards.

One of my favourite vegetarian restuarants in Auckland. Delicious comfort food always. Lovely staff. Clean, nice place

L.

I really enjoyed this restaurant, it’s casual, affordable, and delicious. The waitress was very friendly. I had the pad Thai ($15) and it was soooo good! My friend had the satay “chicken” and it was tasty and a large serving! I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Auckland!

R.

Awesome spot for vegetarians, food is yum as and everything is vegetarian

G.

I love this place. 100% vegan menu (contrary to one of the reviews below) and awesome selection of flavours. The dumplings and the peanut chicken are my favourite (satay chicken was my favourite food when I ate meat once upon a time). What they don't have in fancy decor they make up in with cheaper prices. Staff are always lovely. I'm craving it just talking about it!

I.

I tried the pad thai (no. 38 in the menu), it was delicious. Reasonable price. Would love to go back there again.

S.

'5 star loved it' doesn't do it justice. The food was amazing. (Chicken peanut). Everything here is vegan and there's so much choice. The mock chicken in the meal was really good and crispy. We walked by it quite a few times as its not in the main Street but definitely worth visiting.

G.

What an awesome eatery, definitely worth a visit! You can get all sorts of lovely cruelty-free fake meats served with vegetables, rice, noodles etc. Asian style dishes but frankly they are generally the best at doing vegan and vegetarian style meals so it is perfect. Fast and friendly service with a smile and no guilt, love it!

M.

Always friendly staff that offer a diverse selection of Thai vegetarian options. It's always fun trying to taste the difference between the soy based meat and real meat. You come here for great value vegetarian food and fast service. Don't expect anything fancy. Highly recommend the soy chicken or green curry. Take the bean rice option, definitely worth the upgrade 👌

C.

Food was Soo good, I had the red curry, which was full of goodness, I walked in and was greeted by a smile which is always great, very polite people. Yeah like I said I had the red curry which I really liked. The only thing I would say is that maybe a larger portion of rice, but honestly it wasn't a big deal.

S.

We have been to the Sunflower twice now and the food was wonderful again. They were very busy, and although it was a while before our order was taken, service after that was quick. We were spoilt for choice and the food was fresh and tasty. We came for the food, not the decor and were not disappointed. All meals are vegetarian (contrary to one of the reviews). The menu appears to be full of meat dishes because that is how the food is described and presented. But it's NOT meat. I suppose they wanted to attract customers who would normally eat meat, which was 90% of the population here. That may change. We would eat here once a week if we lived locally. I'm sure there would be favourite meals, such as the Green Curry, chock full of fresh veggies. My starter and mains cost a total of $22 - and this for a restaurant off Queen Street! We highly recommend it.

H.

This is the best vegan Restaurant in Auckland. You've a really good selection of food. We was there several times and it was allways delicious. The staff is courteous and helpful. You can't beat the prices. It's very budget but it the plates and bowls are rich filled with awesome food. I recommend everybody to go there. We will come back too. About the bad ratings who said it's not vegetarian: first I was confused too about the menu but it's all plant based. Chicken, beef and other stuff are all vegan options. This also is mentioned on the menu and asking helps too :) Cheers KiWe Travel :)

M.

Great place to have a meal or a bite for couples, families, colleagues, friends or on your own. Yum selection of savoury items, all vegan and flavourful. Thick sauces etc. Not many raw options but a bit there. Spicy chicken, dumplings, and stir fried green vegetable all excellent. Nice fresh juices. Friendly staff and good service. Casual atmosphere. 100% recommend.

C.

One of the best vegan joints in Auckland, amazing meals and quite the variety. Price is the tiniest bit hefty but well worth every huk.

S.

This is the best vegetarian restaurant I've tried in Auckland - rated on (a) flavour; (b) quality of ingredients; (c) excellent service; (d) portion sizes; and (e) affordability. My daughter and I go back again and again - we are never disappointed and I've recommended it many times. I work a few minutes walk away and even travel into the city during weekends and when I'm taking annual leave just to eat there - that is how good it is.

S.

Best Thai Vegetarian restaurant in Auckland. We have been here number of times.. we can get regular member card (if available 😄). Food is excellent.. service is great.. and u get pure vegetarian thai food

a.

A little hard to find but they serve some decent food. We were visiting from Australia and needed some vegan food after our flight and long day exploring. We ordered four dishes: Money bags entree: Peanuts and something else wrapped in a dumpling wrapper then deep fried, served with sweet dipping sauce. Not particularly interesting or tasty, just a crunch with a soft filling. It was too sweet with the dipping sauce and too dry without it. Sesame pancakes entree: basically a roti. Flaky pastry with a mild sesame flavour. I didn't really enjoy it but my partner loved it. Noodles with sour and spicy soup: a huge bowl of noodles in a spicy and oily soup. Make sure you are hungry if you order this! Not much vegetables in it but the flavour was decent. Soy duck with rice and veg: really nice faux duck, very sticky and moist, strong flavour and nice texture. Overall we left very full and I wasn't disappointed with the food, but I wish we'd ordered more vegetable dishes as I felt quite heavy from all the starch and gluten. Maybe we just ordered the wrong things. Oh yeah we also got the smoked plum tea... That was disgusting. Must be an acquired taste.

C.

I come here regularly, lovely staff. The food here is so delicious. By far the best vegan dumplings I had ever had. 100% recommend this place. Reasonable prices for the meal sizes

D.

Some of the best (authentic) Thai and vegan/vegetarian food I have ever had and I have tried tons all over the world. Made with a lot of care, perfectly good and balanced. Everything we ordered was delicious, the service was super friendly. Healthy with big portions. Highly recommend the appetisers (dumplings, curry puffs), burgers, the curries and mixed vegetables. Cannot wait to go back.

P.

I've been to Sunflower many times and am a fan, yet today the Red Curry was exceptional. Confirming it as a long term favorite🌻

S.

Loved it! A bit noisy and most tables were full. But a nice atmosphere and plenty of good food to choose from. Very filling meals - you definitely don't need to order rice on the side! Not many drink options though.

J.

Tried and shared 5 different dishes. And loved them all. Particularly the eggplant dish and the chicken with peanut sauce on rice. My wife was not crazy about the pepper steak because of the texture but I still liked it. Definitely will go back.

E.

Love this restaurant, really laid back and great food. My favourite vegan restaurant in Auckland! Ordered the stir fried tofu once and didn't realise it would be a plate of tofu, which is my misunderstanding. The red bean pancakes are amazing.

n.

Being vegetarian since my teens going somewhere were I can eat everything is always exciting. Food is good. Service fast. You don't have to dress up. Recommended for vegans too. Also they don't use much onion for those who have problems with allergies.

A.

The best vegan food I have ever tried, you can't even tell it isn't real meat! I was skeptical of faux meat until I tried Sunflower, I absolutely adore them and will always go back.

A.

one of my favorite vegan restaurants in Auckland. We visted this place several times and it was every single time delicious. The portions are huge and the staff was polite and friendly. After our first look to the menu we thought it`s a bit like cheap bistro food but actually the meals are very tasty. You can choose from a lot different meals. From burgers, dumplings, soups, rice and noodle dishes. My favorite is the Pad Thai and the best it`s all plant based. It`s not a posh ambience but we felt every time welcomed and the prices are unbeatable. I can everybody recommend to go there. We`ll be back. Thanks alot

C.

nice food, best vegetarian eatery in Auckland

N.

FODMAP/intolerance/vegan friendly! Ask to see the handy ingredients list for every menu item! (Not coeliac or nut friendly, sorry.) No animal products or MSG. Inexpensive, quality food, fast service, extensive menu. Entree and mains only. Massaman curry was delicious, excellent money bags, very good salt and pepper tofu. Very simple eatery style atmosphere.

S.

One of the few places in Auckland you can pick literally anything off the menu and don't have to worry if it's vegan or not. I've loved every dish I've eaten at Sunflower and the prices are really good especially for big groups. I wish it were a little further out of town so parking was easier but it's 100% worth the hassle.

S.

I’m one of regular visitor of Sunflower Vegeterian Restaurant. I love their pad Thai and dumplings, there are the best. I also tried their soup couple of times and loved it completely. This place is very busy but it’s worth waiting for this yummy food. Everyone should try this at least once. :)

R.

This place is basic but delicious. Everything is completely vegan with meat substitutes. The staff were friendly a very helpful. Service was fast. Food delicious. Venue basic but prices fair. Would go again without hesitation

M.

Yum Pad Thai, generous portion size and no animal products: whats not to love?

C.

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed this Pad-Thai and the pan-fried dumplings. This restaurant has consistently delicious food at very reasonable prices and we would definitely recommend it. Thank you Sunflower Thai.

M.

Great vegan pad thai. Enjoyed the food and reasonably priced. The menu was outdated so I paid a bit more than expected but it was stiff worth it. Cheers

S.

Seriously healthy and yummy food, staff are great

S.

A great mock meat restaurant in the heart of Auckland. Good portions at reasonable prices. The deep fried oysters are delicious. Definitely try the Celery and Apple smoothie when there. Decor isn't exactly 'romantic' but the food shines.

H.

You don’t have to be a vegan to enjoy these delicious dishes. I really like their tofu, because I think they boil it in water first before they fry it, So it’s very light not oily at all.

D.

Wow ! We almost felt guilty eating the crispy “chicken” - we shared that and a red curry between us and it was so good my glasses fogged up. Dinner for two for under $40 and friendly service ... raving.

J.

Great food at great prices. It's amazing how this place is vegetarian. You can barely tell the difference. Portion sizes are great for the price. Good food at a good price. You have to try it!

O.

Great variety of mock meats, fair price and quick and warm service!

F.

Yummy vegetarian food with vegetarian meat options! Everyone will enjoy! Excellent service and social atmosphere. Affordable too. Bathroom could use some attention.

t.

From Japan:) Fried rice I had was really tasty.

E.

Awesome! As someone with severe fish and shellfish allergies it was absolutely wonderful to eat french frys (chips), "fish", spring rolls, and pad Thai. I typically cannot eat any of these things because of cross contamination, but it was incredible! Wonderful for vegan/vegetarian or seafood allergies!!

L.

100% vegan menu with a huge array of choices! I recommend the pad Thai and the peanut 'chicken' with rice. Good value and great service!

R.

Tofu pad thai was delicious, not too oily like others I’ve tried. Nicely plated. Service was fast. Not many vege places in the city so nice to have another option close by.

C.

Amazing, a real hidden gem!!! So so so many options and super affordable. The money bags were delicious. Took an omni friend and she really enjoyed it too.

M.

Pretty average food, has a real Asian food court feel to the place though. Reasonably priced but that was reflected in the quality

T.

The food is pretty good, the service can be a bit slow though and the place doesn't have the most vibrant atmosphere. Nevertheless, still a great place for vegetarian/vegan meals.

r.

Incredibly delicious food, even for my non-vegan friends :) great spot, affordable and scrumptious! Highly recommend.

P.

Auckland's best vegan restaurant. I have been here many times and have never been disappointed. Friendly service, delicious food, and a warm laid-back atmosphere.

Z.

Great vegan food choices. Lots of variety. Staff are quite friendly. However lacks in quality facilities bit still in improvement. Overall a must go.

P.

Decent food for a decent price. A very relaxed atmosphere. It is great for vegetarians looking for 'mock meat' options. Shame they don't do desset

T.

This restaurant never disappoints. Its amazing how they get so much flavour out of the soy. Highly recommended for vegetarians.

A.

Yummy Thai style vegetarian food. Friendly staff, reasonably priced, though took awhile to cook the food. The location is quite secluded, at the left end of the hallway.

B.

Yummy food, so many options. All vegan!!! So many vegan meats. Good quality and quantity. Whole family enjoyed it, vegans and nonvegans. Lovely staff.

s.

Best vegetarian restaurant ever! I don't understand, why some people are complaining about the service - the waitress is super polite and attentive. I wish, we had a similar place in Munich!

M.

My partner and I love this place! Our favourite restaurant in the city by far. Great food, at a reasonable price, with amazing service! 10/10 💕

A.

Absolutely no meat in this bloody place, I asked the waiter for a 6 inch sausage and he whipped his diddle out and put it in my mouth. Overall 5 stars

l.

delicious and affordable food that fulfils everyone’s dietary needs! Friendly staff and good atmosphere! great place

A.

The ambience wasn't that great but the staff was friendly and the food was also nice. U had the pad Thai and it was good although the quantity could've been a bit more ...

M.

Tasty Asian food that just happens to be vegetarian. Little bit more expensive than food court prices. Note that all items on the menu that mention meat use substitutes made from vegetables.

M.

Large range of creative dishes for vegans/vegetarians. Lots of imitation meat dishes which are good if you're into that. Maybe a little heavy in the deep frying.

O.

we don't like the place.. small portions and not tasty.. the place is not like something you want to visit second time.. dirty posters on the wall.. place looks like cheap one.. but it's actually not so.

T.

Best vegan, fried chicken tastes better than the real thing. I've heard the pad Thai is really good. Saved me when I first went vegan.

A.

It is a must if you are vegan and are looking for tasty food. Prices are much better compared to Auckland's standards

C.

Very good, highly recommended. Amazing food, super friendly service. More of these are needed across NZ. Needs to be in every town, mainstream. Thank you.

B.

Beautiful vegan food is what I've always had at Sunflower, (the comment below, they said mostly meat dishes, someone needs to inform her that they are vegan mock meats not real meat) Have always enjoyed the food and looking forward to going there this Saturday :-)

K.

I would recommend trying the curry puffs and pad Thai(#38). The restaurant itself is a little confusing to find, but we eventually found it (It shares a building with another restaurant I believe) Thank you for the great meal and quick service! :)

M.

We're coming back for sure, such beautiful care and flavours gone into every meal we tried. Thanks so much !!

R.

The food is always good and the space is cosy. Nice playlist today 😃

C.

Love it, crave it, always a pleasure. Huge vegan menu, lovely staff, and delicious food. My go-to for dinner out.

D.

Beautiful, clean, flavourful food and reasonably priced. Layout is simple almost basic but it adds to the character. Service can be little prompt.

V.

So so yummy and they had vegan meat . Had some chicken with rice and veggies ahhhh...prices are super reasonable and you get a ton of food!

E.

Lovely food and lovely friendly staff. Recommend the crispy chicken & rice. Really fast service! Will be back.

E.

Best vegan & vegetarian place in town and by far. Very tasty dishes mainly Asian but so good...

r.

All veg. Decent. Their menu items shows chicken, mutton for names of veg dishes. Only negatives: took long time to get food.

N.

Great value and friendly staff. Would give them 5 stars if they were able to cater for my special request regarding food intolerance.

F.

Very good food! Tasty and vegan. By far the best vegan restaurant in Auckland!

M.

Good value for money and big choice of vegetarian dishes. They also have very nice Brown sugar ginger tea

A.

THE BEST PACE FOR DUMPLINGS!!! The people there are so welcoming, gentle and kind. Has a very safe, home vibe to it. I really wish they would change the tv content though,,,

A.

Amazing thai food, absolutely loved it and 100% vegetarian makes the deal so sweet 😍🥰

K.

Had the Pud Kra Plaw with Chilli/Basil leaves to go. Not bad, but the gravy tastes like MSG. Portion size is quite small, too.

B.

Excellent food! Service was friendly, but poor server was a bit overwhelmed looking after a busy restaurant by herself.

R.

The stars are for the extensive vegan menu, the food was reasonably priced and tasted okay. A must visit for those who want to support vegan establishments

L.

I absolutely love their peanut chicken! So yummy!

J.

The hype is real. Incredible food at decent prices. This place should be a revelation to all vegetarians / vegans...

T.

Great service. Food served hot and quick. Pad Thai tofu yummy and dumplings definitely must try.

O.

Friendly service, delicious food at a decent price. Would reccommend the crispy 'chicken' and the dumplings!

F.

The food was really yummy, nicely sized portions and free water. Altogether the visit made me happy! :) thanks!!

A.

Friendly staff, food okay, just.

K.

Food was very good, great option for both vegans and non-vegans. Friendly and quick service

J.

Great vegan options & mock meat based dishes. The satay chicken is delicious & pad Thai too!

G.

Fantastic menu range with generous serving sizes and flavoursome, authentic food. Low-key and relaxed atmosphere.

L.

A friendly, laid back lunch place !! Great food for moderate prices (considering Auckland). It's a place to try if you are a vegetarian

s.

Fantastic food, have gone here regularly since last year! Really great food and staff. Delicious.

J.

Great, inexpensive fresh, tasty vege/vegan Asian food. Not a great place for ambience, but the food is worth the visit..

S.

Would never know this place existed if not introduced by a friend. Yummy food , clean place

A.

Best vegan Thai restaurant in Auckland. Loved the food.

J.

Try the fish cake (mocked meat of course) - it’s chef special. Only available in here! I order this every time I dine here.

N.

Really tasty food - lovely Thai spices - loads of variety. One of the best Thai places.

B.

Nice variety of vegetarian food. The Thai fish cakes are a must try.

R.

So good and healthy as usual. I'm not a vegetarian or a vegan but the gods here is amazing!

M.
