Eating vegetarian or vegan doesn’t have to mean picking around a menu built for meat-eaters. Siam Thai Cuisine’s Vegetable section runs twelve dishes deep on its own, and plant-based options show up across the Appetizer, Salad, Soup, and Lunch menus too — this is a real, priced walk-through of what’s available, not a workaround.
The Vegetable & Tofu Section, Dish by Dish
Siam Thai Cuisine’s dedicated Vegetable menu covers the same curry range available in the meat sections: Panang Curry Tofu ($16.95), Red Curry With Vegetable ($16.95), Green Curry With Vegetable ($16.95), and Yellow Curry Tofu ($16.95) let a vegetarian diner order the same coconut-milk curry styles as anyone else at the table. Beyond curry, Vegetable Delight ($15.95) is a straightforward mixed-vegetable stir-fry, and Vegetable & Tofu With Thai Basil ($15.95) brings the same basil-and-chili treatment found in the chicken and beef versions elsewhere on the menu. Eggplant In Spicy Sauce ($15.95), Siam Broccoli 5 ($15.95), Stir Fried Mango And Tofu ($15.95), Vegetable And Tofu In Garlic Pepper ($15.95), and Siam Green Bean ($15.95) round out a section that gives a vegetarian diner a full week of different dinners without repeating a dish.
A Standout Worth Knowing by Name: Pop Eye’s Favorite
Pop Eye’s Favorite ($15.95) is one of the more distinctly named dishes on the entire menu — a spinach-forward preparation (the name is a nod to the cartoon character) that doesn’t have an obvious direct meat-menu equivalent. It’s worth ordering on its own merits rather than skipping past as a novelty name.
Vegetarian Options Outside the Vegetable Section
The plant-based menu doesn’t stop at the dedicated section. Golden Tofu ($10.95) is a vegetarian appetizer distinct from the meat-based satay and wings options. Fresh Spring Rolls are available in a veggie version ($10.95) alongside the shrimp version. Roti And Green Curry ($10.50) is listed as an appetizer and works as a vegetarian starter when ordered without the meat-curry pairing confirmed. On the soup side, Tom Yum Puck (Vegetable) ($10.95) and Tom Kha Puck (Vegetable) ($10.95) bring the same hot-and-sour and coconut-milk soup styles available in the chicken and shrimp versions. The Lunch menu carries its own Vegetable and Tofu section too, with Veggies & Tofu With Thai Basil (Hot), Panang Tofu (Medium), Eggplant In Spicy Sauce (Hot), Green Curry Veggie (Medium), Princess In Green (Mild), Yellow Curry Tofu (Medium), Thai Lemongrass Veggie & Tofu (Medium), and Cashew Nut Veggie (Medium) — all priced between $15.50 and $16.00 with soup included.
A Note on Vegan vs. Vegetarian
Traditional Thai cooking often uses fish sauce as a base seasoning, which means a dish listed as “vegetable” isn’t automatically vegan by default even when it contains no meat. Diners who need a strictly vegan preparation should note that when ordering — either through the online ordering page’s special instructions field or by calling ahead — so the kitchen can confirm fish sauce is left out or substituted. This is a small step that makes a real difference for strict vegans versus vegetarians who are comfortable with fish sauce.
Building a Vegetarian or Vegan Order
For a first vegetarian order at Siam Thai Cuisine, a reasonable combination looks like: Golden Tofu or veggie Fresh Spring Rolls to start, a curry from the Vegetable section (Panang Curry Tofu is a good middle-of-the-road pick for someone new to Thai curry), and Pop Eye’s Favorite or Siam Green Bean as a second dish for the table to share. For dessert, Sweet Sticky Rice With Fresh Mango ($10.95) and Homemade Coconut Ice Cream ($5.95) are both naturally plant-based, though diners with dairy concerns should confirm the ice cream’s preparation directly.
