Lotus Thai
Lotus Thai serves traditional Thai dishes with a notable vegetarian section where many curries and entrees can be made vegan upon request—particularly the red curry and tofu with cashews, which receive positive mentions. The service is friendly and knowledgeable about vegan needs, and the restaurant includes takeout options at a moderate price level. While not fully vegan, clear communication about fish or oyster sauce in some vegetarian dishes is advised.
