    Pad see ew with tofu
    Alana K.

    My friend and I came here for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. We arrived around 1:15pm, and there were plenty of tables available. We shared the pad see ew with tofu and the ton yum tow hoo, which was a stir-fry with tofu and mixed vegetables. We liked both dishes, but the pad see ew was my favorite. Service was decent, but it was difficult to get the waitstaff's attention at the end (despite it not being that busy) and we had to ask. Overall though, a great meal!

    101. Mango Curry Chicken

    This is one of the few completely vegan restaurants in Boston and I've always had such an amazing experience every time I come here! I came with my family on a busy evening where I could tell they were a bit overwhelmed. There was still ample seating available, as the restaurant is quite large. The seating is very comfortable with a lovely ambiance. The service was very friendly, helpful and prompt. We ordered a large variety of items, starting with the tom yum soup, tom ka soup, the tofu cigars, mango curry, pineapple fried rice, and the nest. I loved every single dish we got and the spice level was perfection. The crispy bird's nest was such a standout with the savory stew inside. I also really love the mango curry "chicken" for having a lovely contrast of being sweet and tangy. The veggies were also so soft and juicy. The cigars were a unique dish as well and I enjoyed the crispy outside and soft exterior. I also go the honeydew boba tea without the boba. I liked how it wasn't overly sweet and was creamy and refreshing. It was very easy to get to with close proximity to the T. I cannot wait to return again on my next visit to Boston!

    I love this hidden gem in Chinatown. The entrance is a bit interesting bc it's a dingy flight of stairs to the cafe. But the cafe is super clean and big. It is filled with a lot of plants and very cozy. I got the Tom yum soup and Thai iced tea which is almost a slushy. Everything was super yummy and can't wait to come back here again.

    Another incredible dining experience at My Thai Vegan, they are the highlight of our trip every time we go. We brought along some omnivores this time who did backflips upon tasting how incredible their food was.

    Papaya salad

    Omg, vegan Thai food? So hard to come by even vegetarian Thai food. This place is awesome. They are serving up comforting vegan renditions of classics like pad see ew and much more. The papaya salad and the summer rolls were nice lighter options. The tofu added to the papaya salad was excellent.

    My Thai Vegan cafe is in Chinatown, Boston. The restaurant is on the second floor and has two sets of stairs you must ascend. Little narrow and steep but not bad. Just to let people know who may have trouble going up stairs. The interior has some plants by the windows. I think it was the husband and wife there in the late evening. There was only one other table that had patrons, so I was seated promptly, given my water, and the menu. The menu is all vegan and features an unbelievable huge menu. A lot of vegan meat dish options. I personally like that the menu is all plant-based, but when the menu is that large- chance is that there's a couple common bases with some modifications to create new dishes. My pad Thai was rather plain looking but tasted nice. The spices helped. Started off with the fried wontons, which were fine as well. I think that the strengths are that the place is entirely plant based, and there's no danger of having fish sauce or something that could make a seemingly vegetarian dish at a regular restaurant not so vegetarian. The food is fine, but it's honestly not wow. There were blogs that do recommend this place, and it's a good option for plant-based people in Chinatown area. But if I gave it a rating, I would give it a 3.9-4/5. Good, but not great. The total with the appetizer and the dish was $23.00 I did tip extra to show my appreciation. Out of 10, it's a solid 8.

    67. Pad See Ew Noodles Plus
    Stephanie T.

    After watching a movie at AMC Boston Common 19, my friends and I were looking for a place to grab dinner. Since one of our friends is vegan, we came across My Thai Vegan Cafe and I'm so glad we did. This restaurant only serves vegan dishes. My Thai Vegan Cafe is located in Chinatown on the second floor. Going up the stairs of the building looked kinda shady and smelled weird, but the restaurant is spacious and has many greenery. When we arrived on Sunday evening, there were a few tables taken but we were seated right away. We ordered a few dishes to share and everything tasted delicious. The tow-hoo tod (crispy tofu cigars) was very crispy and sauce was very good. The pad see ew and pineapple fried rice was very good and flavorful. The pad thai wasn't as flavorful as the other dishes so I probably wouldn't get that again. Portions were a great size. Service was friendly. I would come back here.

    We were in Boston for the weekend, and my wife had done a bunch of research to find a good…read moregluten-free breakfast spot. She was so excited when she found Cafe Bonjour because they had several gluten-free options on the menu. We took an Uber there right after we landed and were able to walk right in and get a table when they opened, which worked out perfectly because the place started to fill up! It's a cute little spot with plenty of seating inside, and they also had a nice outdoor parklet that would be great in good weather. We asked to sit at the bar so we could watch the cooks in action, which was really fun. The menu had all the classic breakfast favorites like eggs and French toast, along with some lunch options like hamburgers and chicken wraps. The staff was very friendly and attentive. My wife ordered the gluten-free eggs benedict and absolutely loved it. I had the Bonjour omelet, and it was delicious. Overall, this is a fantastic breakfast spot with great food, a fun atmosphere, and solid gluten-free options.

The inside is quite cramped and we were shoved into a tiny little corner. Overall a meh place for brunch. The appeal is the convenience of the location. Other than that I'd stop somewhere else for a brunch.

While the menu is entirely vegetarian with many vegan options, it feels approachable whether you are looking for a healthy lunch, a filling dinner, or just a smoothie or coffee. We walked into the Back Bay location, which has a bright, inviting interior filled with natural light, plants, and plenty of seating, creating a calm atmosphere that feels more like a neighborhood café than a typical fast-casual restaurant. The design is modern and clean, with a warm energy that makes it the kind of place where you can enjoy a meal at your own pace, meet a friend, or even spend some time working. The grain and noodle bowls are the main reason to visit. They are built around fresh vegetables, whole grains, legumes, and flavorful sauces that make each bowl feel substantial without being overly heavy. We appreciated that every ingredient tasted fresh, and the different textures kept each bite interesting. The spicy peanut noodles are one of the standout dishes, combining chewy noodles with crisp vegetables and a rich, savory sauce that has just enough heat without overwhelming the rest of the flavors. The falafel is another solid choice, with a crispy exterior and soft interior that pairs well with the fresh vegetables and creamy sauces. Beyond the bowls, there is a good variety of options depending on what you are in the mood for. The menu includes açaí bowls, salads, wraps, soups, smoothies, fresh juices, and coffee, making it easy to stop by at almost any time of day. The menu also changes with seasonal ingredients, giving returning visits some variety while still keeping the café's focus on fresh, healthy food. Even if you are not vegetarian, the meals are filling enough that they never feel like they are missing anything. The café itself has a relaxing atmosphere that encourages you to stay a while. The modern design, abundance of plants, and comfortable seating make it feel much more welcoming than many grab-and-go lunch spots in the area. The ordering process is straightforward, and the staff were friendly throughout our visit. During busier lunch hours, food can take a little longer to prepare since everything is made to order, so keeping that in mind is worth it if you are on a tight schedule. The seating area stays comfortable even when the café fills up, and the energy of the room remains calm and focused. Life Alive Organic Cafe stands out because it proves that healthy food can still be satisfying and full of flavor. The fresh ingredients, diverse menu, and comfortable atmosphere make it an easy place to return to whether you are looking for a quick lunch, a lighter dinner, or simply a break from heavier meals. If you are in Back Bay and want a meal that feels nourishing without sacrificing taste, this is a café well worth adding to your list.

Also appreciate it having quinoa instead of rice. Huge fan of coconut and bought the Majikal Coconut as well (price made me a bit nervous). It contains coconut juice, meat and blue majik (HIGHLY advise that you drink it as soon as you buy). My 3rd item was an acai bowl which I had for dinner and it was well done and also filled me up for the night. The business itself is well kept, bright and colorful. It's small, but has two seats near the windows. Really appreciate Cocobeet having labels for their items in the fridge showing not only the price, but what it does for the body! So glad it's across the street from work and you'll definitely be seeing me again!

But this place completely lives up. 6 different ramens, $17.95 for the regular bowls. I was recommended the red hot miso ramen, a spicy option. You order up at the counter, and they give you a buzzer that buzzes when your ramen is ready to grab at the counter. The ramen was ready in under 10 minutes. First, the broth was remarkably complex and rich, with an endless depth that never became too overbearing -- perfect. The noodles were perfectly cooked as well, served up in a decent portion. Toppings-wise, you get tofu, soy crumble, corn, arugula, and sprouts, along with plenty of sesame seeds. I would've liked some proper greens (other than a few raw arugula leafs), but that's the most minor of complaints. Service was decent enough -- informative and helpful in describing the options. All in all, top-notch vegan ramen. Highest recommendation.

Swung by this place on a weekday for lunch to avoid the rush - most weekends I pass by this place and the line wraps around the street! My friend and I stepped in and were immediately greeted with a sour attitude. We were confused on the menu whether our ramen included chili oil or not, and the staff did not help explain anything and just quickly dismissed our questions to get us to order quicker. Once we sat down, the food was done relatively quickly. However I was very surprised on what we had gotten. Now I admit - I am not a vegetarian. However, I have enjoyed many vegetarian meals and this was quite upsetting. We both got the garlic miso ramen. The ramen was not temperature hot at all. The chili oil was not flavorful. The "soy meat" was simply just mushed tofu with awful texture, and it soaked into the soup and created a pretty unpleasant texture (I took a picture which makes me sad and unappetized). I was unable to finish my bowl. The food combined with the service made for a pretty negative time for me. I really wanted to love it - a place with a full vegetarian menu is amazing for all my friends who have that restriction! Maybe if they tried pan frying the tofu create a better textural experience? I will not plan to come back, and will highly recommend you go to any other restaurant in Back Bay.
