Classic Thai Curries And Vegan Picks In Manhattan
Order tofu yellow curry or basil sauteed chicken in a relaxed Thai room where staff flag vegan options.
🍛 John Street Thai
Hey Thai pairs a beautifully decorated John Street dining room with a menu that leans into classic curries and wok dishes. Shrimp with garlic sauce and basil sauteed chicken carry the wok side, while Pan Asian fusion plates widen the table without drifting far from Thai flavors.
Midday is where the value shows. Doors open at 11 AM Monday through Friday, and the lunch special includes soup or salad with the entree, a tidy way to turn a midday break into a proper sit down meal. Weekend service starts later, at 3 PM.
Plant based diners get more than a token option. Tofu pad thai, tofu yellow curry, spring rolls, and chive pancakes all sit among the vegan choices, and staff clearly identify which dishes qualify. Mixed tables order without guesswork, one person on the curry, another on the basil chicken, a third on the tofu pad thai, all in the same relaxed room.
