What People Are Saying About Bulan Thai Vegetarian Kitchen
The Editor
Andrew Rosenblum
Citysearch
In Short – Herbivores can at last enjoy the sweet tang of Thai cooking without worrying that any of the "vegetarian" dishes might actually have chicken stock hidden somewhere in the preparation. The owners and chefs have interpreted dishes from throughout Thailand, without incorporating any meat, fish, refined sugars, MSG, or saturated fats. Occasional weekend jazz performances make the spare, elegant dining room even more intimate, but the real focus is on the food; Items like a spicy, tofu lahb salad, vegetarian entrees like garlic-sauteed asparagus, and a variety of rich curries.

Robotic Lunch
by Carniterian
The food is excellent. The foreign bodies in it aren't. Got a quarter inch piece of a screw or metal shaving in my curry. Also a hair. I'm not picky but this is rather pushing it. Won't be ordering from this place again.
- Pros: Great food.
- Cons: You never know what you'll find in it.

Amazing Vegetarian!
by tghollywood
My first review on a place that is to die for!!! I am a vegetarian, vegan when I can be .. my boyfriend on the other hand is not! It's always a challenge to find good eats that will meet both of our needs.
I've eaten here a million times and thought I just might be able to pull one over on him because it's that good!!! One night I pulled out the menu and said let's have Thai tonight! After scanning the menu he decided on the Green Curry with "Chicken" ... little did he know ... nor does he still know .. it's not really chicken! He LOVED it. We will forever be fans and keep going back for more!!
- Pros: They deliver and they are fast!
- Cons: Parking in LA is never that great when valet does not exist.

Great Thai, even if you're not a vegetarian!
by ilevin
This little restaurant has such good food! At first I was hesitant because I'm usually not into fake meat but you can barely tell at this place. I even had the "chicken" wings and love them!
- Pros: Food, prices, service
- Cons: Parking, limited seating
