Vathaitau — Restaurant in Vilnius

What I encountered here was a letdown of epic proportions. The dishes lacked the bold flavors and authenticity I had hoped for, resembling more of a watered-down imitation of Thai dishes. My supposed curry meal turned out to be a lackluster soup of veggies drowning in coconut milk, with way too big chunks of raw ginger that couldn't be chewed adding to the confusion. No spices detected, not even salt. Just a thick heavy coat of coconut milk. It pains me to say it, but the exorbitant prices charged here don't match the subpar quality of the food served and that is the reason behind this (my first ever) review of any place. It feels almost like a blasphemy to say something bad about food, as I'm in general always grateful to receive it, but I just felt like I have to say this and maybe save someone's money. And as a super huge fan of Thai food I just think people should realise that...

While the terrace is nice, the rest of the dining experience is lacking. Apparently, customers order at the bar, but this only becomes clear when you've sat at your table for twenty minutes after being given the menu. Service is slow and disorganized, but the food is worse. The spring rolls are decent, but the pad thai lacks flavor and is, unfortunately, inferior to similar dishes at competitors in the city. The red curry was bland and still had chunks of curry paste floating around in it, unincorporated into the coconut milk. For a restaurant that has "authentic Thai food" plastered on the door everything felt store bought and haphazardly slapped together. The "house lemonade" arrives unmixed, as if to drive home that it's just syrup and water. If you are starving, the portions are reasonable, but I do not see any...

We LOVE thai food and this place delivered with lots of options, good service and great taste!

They have an exciting menu with lots of pictures in Lithuanian, and a secondary menu with descriptions in English. We started off looking at the pictures but quickly realised that everything looked amazing, so there was no point.

We were impressed that everything was available with tofu and seemed to have a lot of veges in every dish (not just meat and potato in sauce like some other places).

We ended up getting the green curry and pak thua (or something like that). Both were very delicious!

Atmosphere was great. Cosy with some fun Spanish music playing at a good level.

We'll only be in town for a few days but will...
