Hoooooly yum

Do not miss this place. It was so incredible! A good amount of vegan options, and even more vegetarian options.

Of the vegan items, we got laab tofu, the crispy tofu starter, yellow curry with tofu and sticky rice, pickled veggies, and the jeow bong.

Everything was INCREDIBLE. The flavors were amazing and I could not stop eating. Honestly I don’t usually gravitate towards curry’s when eating out (idk why, I always like them but it’s never my go-to) but the yellow curry was a rec from the server and it might go down as the best curry I’ve ever had. It was so flavorful and amazing.

The menu is very well labeled and the flavors are bold. Don’t skip this place!

Flavorful, Spicy, Delicious

Separate vegan menu. Not extensive, but big enough. We shared most of the main dishes between 3 of us, and everything was delcious. Big Flavors! Service on the slow side, but to be fair it was pretty crowded at lunchtime. Definitely would go back.

Pros: Flavor & spice, Vegan menu

Cons: slow serive

Good vegan options, fun cocktails

Went as a couple around 5 PM on a weekday just before happy hour ended—no wait for a table. We got laab tofu (good, but maybe a little over-seasoned/dry), sticky rice (good), jeow eggplant and jeow bong (both good, somewhat spicy).
Lots of variety on the cocktail menu. Cocktails are $2 off during happy hour, otherwise IMO overpriced (but I enjoyed my passion fruit Negroni). Be on the lookout for some non-vegetarian cocktails (fish sauce in a couple).
The dessert I got (black sesame mochi bar) didn’t look like much but it was really good, hot and a little crispy with a nutty flavor.
I wish they had a few more veg options (there’s a vegan curry and one other vegan dessert we didn’t try, but that’s it) but overall good and not overly expensive for a trendy place.

Pros: Unusual flavors you can’t easily find elsewhere, Fun and varied cocktail/soft drinks list, Good vegan dessert options

Cons: Not a huge number of options overall, Back patio seating not the most comfortable, No reservations available, so YMMV on wait
