This restaurant is great..cheap eats and healthy. However the service is slow for such a small place with not many tables.
If your willing to wait and sacrifice service for food...you certainly will eat healthy and the food is tasty.
However, there are a lot of other places to go that are veggie, healthy, and quick..but if you have time to wait..this place is worth your dime and your heart.
BEST VEGETARIAN/VEGAN THAI FOOD IN SEATTLE!!!!
Located on University District's "The Ave". Waitstaff and cooks are very sweet, and prompt with service. Food is always fresh and made well. Favorite dish= pineapple fried rice-raisins. and chicken nuggets appetizer. This fake meat is so yummy, even meat eaters approve.
Very Affordable!
Closes at 10pm.
Lunchtime is the best.

Eh. They only do meat alternative dishes which is cool, but I found that the food all tastes kinda the same. If you were planning to get tofu anyway there are a lot of better places for Thai food. The waitstaff was nice, and they were fast in serving me.
Pretty good.
I don't seek it out, but it is tasty and if someone suggested we eat there I wouldn't throw a fit or anything, but...it didn't wow me. The phad thai was solid and I think they do a great job with fake meat. I'm trying to be nice. It's just "meh". It is VERY hard to do Thai food on The Ave. since there is SO MUCH OF IT and they are overshadowed by location and the fact that, for vegetarian Thai, Araya's is superior in every way.

Go to wallingford for veggie thai instead...
Even though Thai food has a recognition of the spicy, real Thai people don't eat too spicy food since it will ruin all other tastes. So I don't understand why people here always go for the 5 stars.
I like this place since they have the imitated fish which I can't find anywhere else in the city. The taste is good on most of dishes.
I and my Thai friends like it here when we are in the mood for veggie. Our favorites dishes are Sen Mee Pla, Pineapple fried rice, Kraprao nuea.
One flaw would be because the vibe is not as good as Araya.

My friends and I usually forgo the line at Thai Tom for Veggie Veggie, and the food is much better and probably better for you.
The people there are super nice, they give you a free miso soup bowl, and service is tremendously fast. As an omnivore, the fake meats kind of freak me out, but the tofu is good. It seems like they rely kind of heavily on sauces, but the veggies are so fresh and well-cooked that I don't care! Veggie Veggie is good and totally hits the spot when I'm craving Thai food.

This place is awesome if you're vegetarian and love great service. Everything I've had there is tasty and the portions are great. My personal recommendation is the sweet and sour. I've never had to wait long for an order, and the service is excellent(glass always filled with water, friendly staff). It's also the least expensive thai restaurant I've been to. Yet another reason to check it out.

soooooo a friend and i wanted thai food but we didn't want anything too greasy...i usually go to thai-ger room but decided to try something healthier so we decided to try veggie veggie...
i got the phad kee mao w/ soft tofu and was pleasantly surprised at how tasty it was!! i loved it. so much flavor. finished my entree and didn't feel completely stuffed or gross like i usually do after i eat thai food...or anything for that matter.
my friend's entree was really tasty too...she got something with crispy noodles and vegetables. she also ordered the thai iced tea with coconut milk and it was really good...not as sweet as they serve it at other places which was nice...because that stuff can be way too sugary/sweet sometimes.
very fast and friendly service!!
i'll have to come back and try their soy meats but i wasn't feeling very adventurous tonight... but i loved their tofu (you can get it soft or fried)
My partner and I accidentally found Veggie Veggie and now we can't stay away. Their take on Thai food is amazing. Basil "Chicken" is something I crave. If all fake meat tasted this good, being a vegetarian would be loads easier!
If you love cheap, fast, vegetarian food this is the place to go! I was surprised how delicious the food was for being only about $7 an entree. And i never knew there was so many kinds of soy meat! Chicken, Beef, ect - who knew.
The only weird thing was that there was a movie playing on a big screen tv behind me. Not a good situation if your company is easily distracted.

This is the first restaurant I ate it when I got to Seattle, and I was pleased with it. The building isn't too big but It's clean, friendly, fast, and yummy! It's a good place to go if you're hanging out in the U and you want to get your grub on for cheap.

I used to think that food that's too healthy compromises flavor. Veggie veggie is probably the place that truly debunked my faulty belief. They use soy meats which have great textures. We got their eggplant and wide egg noodles with 5 stars. They were spicy enough for my taste without setting me on fire. For a cheap eat on the ave, this is a great place to go.

Most of the time I have been a vegetarian, I have looked on faux meats with some distain. A vegetarian should not feel it necessary to pretend or apologize for what they eat. On the other hand, a person should not let such complexities drive them away from great tasting vegetarian food. The food at Veggie Veggie is outstanding, and very reasonably priced.
It makes a great lunch or dinner. The quality is easily above what you would normally expect on the Ave (where grease and sugar reign supreme), with a nice dining experience.

yum! free soup!
the food is pretty cheap and you get a choice of fake meat. chicken, beef or tofu. i opted for chicken and was happy with my selection. i ordered cashew nut with rice at a 3 star spicy level. it was pretty spicy...i can't imagine eating a 5 star!
friendly servers, big portions, onions that are cooked well enough. hooray!

Cheap and quick, but the food is just OK. The food was a little sweet and fairly bland, even though I ordered 5 stars.
This was delicious Thai food, and I love supporting vegetarian businesses, so I think I'll be eating there pretty often. The prices are reasonable, though I thought my portion was a little small (but all I'd had the rest of the day was some soup so I was hungry). The vegetables in my dish were cooked perfectly and the soy chicken was definitely great. Definitely the kind of place that makes me want to try everything on the menu.
