Review Summary

Reviewers describe Chai Yo as a cozy, welcoming vegan Thai spot with bold, flavorful dishes built around vegan duck, seitan and dumplings, including standout items like vegan duck soup, Pad See Ew, Panang and green curries, and fresh sides such as papaya salad; desserts and drinks like Thai iced tea are well received. The service is repeatedly praised for being friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is noted as inviting and intimate. Many reviewers view value as good, with lunch deals and generous portions for some items, though a few comment that portions can feel small for the price and a couple mention having had better experiences elsewhere; overall the place is seen as a must visit with plans to return.

first of all, the service is great! my boyfriend & i got the spicy papaya salad & the green curry (nom jeen khiao wan), it was enough for 2 people. my bf is a fiend for spicy food & he was sweating a lot, bonus points 👍🏾 i highly recommend the green curry wow!!(i usually dislike eggplants, but the pieces were very well seasoned in the curry, i couldn't believe it) the food felt nutritious, everything was super fresh & delicious. even the water tasted better than in other restaurants hahah. i can't wait to come back to try more options from the menu 😊 💗
