Bidra med feedbackI ordered pad thai with tofu as my meat option. the portions were huge (which is great, but it were 97% noodles, 2.5% tofu and 0.5% veggies (which is not great, because i wish pad thai would be 50% noodles and 50% tofu/veggies) the taste was quite good. as there were so many noodles, I rested that I will cook some nice to go in tomorrow. the pad of the Thai price was typically slightly high because it is in the Tahoe region, and considering that I was pretty all noodles, but not terriblely expensive. I also have spring rolls and these were quite delicious and the diving sauce of rolling was unique. it was fruity, sweet and a little spicy, but sweeter than I am used to, and at the end of the dive of the first roll, the sose sweet reminded me totally of jelly, and I had the feeling I eat peanut butter and jelly! like most restaurants are their take-out/to-go packs/container terrible. styrofoam and plastic coating. bummer the staff was very friendly, which is always beautiful and appreciated:
Contrary to what others may say, this restaurant does offer vegan options. All you have to do is ask. We tried the tofu appetizer, papaya salad (made without fish sauce), spicy basil vegetables, and vegan fried rice – all of which were consistently outstanding.
My vegan family, consisting of my wife and I who have been vegan for 25 years, and our three vegan children, along with my girlfriend's mother and omnivorous father, were very hungry after kayaking. Despite some negative reviews, we decided to give this restaurant a try and we were pleasantly surprised. The food is all made to order and they were able to accommodate our vegan preferences by preparing dishes without fish or oyster sauce. I enjoyed the yellow curry tofu, my 13-year-old had veggie rice wrap rolls, my 11-year-old had pad thai, and my 8-year-old shared some fried tofu with us. My wife opted for red curry tofu and everything was completely vegan. I even tried a bit of everything and couldn't tell the difference. My girlfriend's mother was also happy with her gluten-free green curry. Overall, everyone left satisfied.
I was unsure about trying this restaurant after reading a previous review mentioning their frequent use of oyster or fish sauce. However, with limited options in the area, I decided to go in and ask about alternatives. I was informed that they could prepare the vegetable garden dish (vegetables in garlic sauce) without any such sauce, so I ordered that with tofu. The dish was not very flavorful and only had a few pieces of tofu, but it did contain a good assortment of vegetables. Additionally, it was on the expensive side as I paid $15 for it.
I attempted to eat here tonight because their website says that they can “make most entrees vegetarian” and to notify them of any allergies. However, when I asked the server more specifics in terms of is there any fish sauce, any oyster sauce in their curries or stir fry…it turns out that they always use oyster sauce. They think that by not using fish sauce it’s vegetarian (but if it still has oyster that obviously is not true). She said she could make soups with veggie stock but I did not trust it at that point. They were nice though and at least made me a steamed vegetables, tofu and brown rice plate with plain soy sauce. And their mango sticky rice is just coconut milk and vegan. But beware that everything else is non veg!
