Legendary tom yum het and more - Edit
Lemon Grass is guaranteed joy. Perfect alone or for a date or a (small) group, at lunch or at dinner. One of the oldest and most reliable options for vegans in Helsinki, they know what they are doing.
Read moreTheir clear mushroom soup (tom yum het, #19) is simply legendary. (I prefer the version without tomato, as recommended by one of the two founders.)
The menu was recently reprinted and clarified: if you found it confusing before, try again. Some of the tofu options can be hard to tell apart: don't be shy and ask for a recommendation.
A rare case where I would definitely give 5/5 stars if I could, despite it not being fully vegan. I hope they keep going for another 20 years!
Pros: Family-run restaurant by two Thai sisters, Extremely nice staff knowledgeable about veganism, So many good vegan options it is hard to choose
Cons: Can be too full to fit a larger group

Delicious curry - Edit
There are quite many vegetarian options, most of which are vegan because made with coconut milk. I had a yellow tofu curry in coconut milk. It was delicious, not spicy, and the portion was very big. Comes with rice for 12.90€.
