Kati Vegan Thai is the best spot for vegetarian/vegan food, and in my opinion in general, in downtown Seattle!
My partner and I have been long distance for 3 years and we both started out as vegetarians when we met and found this spot. Even though my partner is no longer strictly vegetarian, it is our favorite spot to eat together when I'm visiting from NYC.
Our favorite menu items that I highly recommend are:
Non-Alcoholic Drinks Fav:
Mango Sunshine
Alcoholic Drink Favs:
Mango Tango
Gardner's Secret
Menu Favorites:
Portobello Lovers appetizer- the mushrooms, broccoli & garlic with lemon are soooo well done. Delicious!
Fried Garlic Jackfruit- a fantastic and unique gluten-free appetizer- yummy!
Pumpkin Curry that we get w/purple rice, keep the tofu, and we do a garlic jackfruit add-on- the taste of this curry is divine, and the flavorful and satisfying garlic jackfruit is a delight and also gluten-free. was unique and authentic when it comes to the usuals like pad Thai and curry and there was a lot of innovation and uniqueness for the appetizers.
Also tasty:
Pineapple Fried Rice - gluten free and delicious
Sweet & Sour Cashew - a tasty stir-fry
The atmosphere and the location are great. The staff is kind and treats the customers well. The bathroom floors are strangely sticky, which I think is due to whatever cleaner they use, but that is the only "off" thing I could comment about this excellent spot!
A highly recommended place if you like Thai and if you are a gluten-free vegetarian!
