I loved this place

There was so many options to choose from came here sober and drunk haha and it was amazing I loved the front area because most people just go to the back “cute garden area” and It gives me my cozy anti social time

The food was just perfect

Pros: Delicious , Nice restaurant, Good staff

Nice tofu pad thai

I had the pad thai. It was nice but I didn’t like the mushrooms. The pond inside the restaurant is a really nice touch, evening vibes are great here! I’m coming back soon to try the breakfast pancakes.

Was good

Food was tasty, however staff could have been more attentive sometimes. I waited for a long time for my drink and clear up of old plates took an hour.
Maybe it was just a bad day but overall ok and interior is pretty.

Great late night feed

Grab purchase**

Yeah, the presentation from grab is about as flash as you can expect but holy heck was this food good. The best part? It’s the first time in a long time I’ve had too much sauce rather than not enough. Bonus points!

Pros: Great taste, Price, So much sauce

Amazing food in the center of Chiang Mai! 😋

What a beautiful restaurant in the center of Chiang Mai! There’s an area where you can sit whenever there’s live music playing and when you venture deeper there’s a garden-centric dining area to sit and enjoy meals. After a long day in Chiang Rai, I wanted nothing more than to sit and eat some delicious Khao Soi only for the two other places I had in mind to close half an hour earlier than what Google noted (note: the kitchen doesn’t close at whatever time Google says, expect places to close half an hour before with people having to leave said restaurant at the Google time). I decided on this place due to its proximity to my accommodation and its high rating and I was not disappointed! Such a beautiful place with chill vibes. A perfect place if you want to bring family or friends either for dinner or drinks and live music. The food was amazing (albeit a bit expensive, their Khao Soi was 120 THB which is on the higher end of the scale) and left me satisfied! I highly recommend stopping by! #Veganuary

Pros: Amazing atmosphere , Great food and food selection , Centrally located!

Cons: A bit on the pricier side

Great food, fantastic desserts

Restaurant with a garden decor in the middle of the city along with live music in the evenings makes it a great atmosphere to dine. The food is all plant based, including their cheese and sauces. Food tastes great and service is quick and friendly.
Wide selection of desserts including raw cakes.

Amazing food

We had avocado toast with cheese and tomato, a power wrap, and pasta with a rosé sauce. The first two dishes were perfect! Incredibly delicious and indulgent, every ingredient was added with love, and nothing was skimped on—it was just so tasty! We didn’t enjoy the pasta as much; there’s something different about the tomato sauce in Thailand compared to what we’re used to back home, and we didn’t really like it.

For dessert, we had an amazing raw tiramisu cake!

The next day, we went back and ordered the power wrap again because it was so good the first time, along with a tofu bowl. We finished everything, and it was one of the best dinners we've had.

Friendly service, clean restrooms, and a charming place to sit indoors, like a little garden by the water. Highly recommended!

Beautiful backyard with pond and pretty lighting.
Delicious blue spiralina smoothie bowl, and good soy latte coffee.
Very extensive menu it was so hard to choose! We’ll be back to try something else for sure.
It was empty when we went at 10.30am which I thought was odd, but it’s our first day in Chiang Mai so not sure if that’s normal.

Bueno, bonito y barato

Fuimos de noche a comer un día viernes. La atención fue muy cordial y rápida, la comida exquisita y de grandes porciones, al salir nos sorprendió lo barato que fue, incluso comparando con otros lugares de chiang mai y Bangkok. Lo único a comentar fue que había poca gente y muy tranquilo, en caso que busquen algo más movido para un fin de semana.

Pros: Barato, Exquisita comida, Atención

Cons: Tranquilo el fin de semana

Fab food in lovely surroundings.

I had spaghetti with tomato sauce, made creamy with cashew nuts - it tasted delicious. Added courgette fingers, deep fried, of course, as a side dish. We also had 2 pizzas and fried tofu with tamarind sauce. Everything was first class. We all enjoyed it so much that we ordered take away wraps for tomorrow's lunch.
Good live music by youngsters added to the ambience.
