Huge menu, great flavors - Edit
This place is tucked away and very relaxed inside, a very different vibe than everything else in the area. The staff were so sweet and helpful. Tom kha soup is hard to find veganized and they nailed it, though I wish I had gotten it with tofu instead of the vegan chickn which was a little mushy. The papaya salad was crisp and refreshing, and I had plenty extra to take home for lunch. Great spot, would love to try their desserts and full menu.
Read morePros: Huge menu, Uncommonly veganized dishes, Private and quiet
Cons: Fluorescent lighting , Mushy chickn, Table water wasn’t cold

I'm glad it's here - Edit
The food is okay.. The menu is huge. Khu Khu has better Thai food, but much less options. This is a nice place to order from because there is so much choice

Could have been better - Edit
The breaded mock-chicken dish was pretty tasty but everything else didn't taste right. I can't really give the place a recommendation. Pat Thai and Tom Ka soup needs to taste a certain way, and it just didn't.

dinner out in nice vegan place :) - Edit
had a nice dinner at this hidden place right in Auckland main city :)
Read morefood was delicious though the cauliflower was a little too spicy for me but my friend liked it so it really just depends on your preference so I guess you'll have to go there yourself ;)
will definitely come back to try some of the many other dishes (they all sound soo good)

Favourite Vegan Restaurant in Auckland - Edit
Love this place. Super casual restaurant with excellent food. Currys taste just like the ones in Thailand. Nice high carb meals, the food isn’t too greasy so you don’t feel sluggish afterwards. Have eaten here a couple times and rate it every time.

Perfection! - Edit
My all time favourite place! Food is consistent, tasty, and filling. I always order at least 2 mains and a side when I go, so I can take some home for laters haha! My fave dishes are the crispy chicken on rice, and the thai green curry.

Tasty food, friendly people - Edit
Stopped in as I heard they did a great ‘fish’ and chips (the New Zealand national dish!). It was hard to stick to that plan as there was so much that looked great on the menu! I enjoyed the food and the lady serving was very friendly and helpful. I definitely hope to visit again before I leave NZ!

No frills, simple and quick vegan food - Edit
Sunflower Thai is a great place if you're looking for super quick and simple vegan Thai food. You can count on a filling and satisfying meal every time. I love the satay chicken dish! Only rating 4 starts as I don't love that you hear the microwave going off while you're dining. It makes me question how fresh the food is since it's being reheated. Nonetheless, still a great place.
