Thin Pan Vegetarian And Vegan is a cloud kitchen at Jingletown Eats in East Oakland. It's menu features vegetarian Thai food. FYI, a cloud kitchen is a restaurant with no dining room. All transactions are done thru apps like GrubHub or Seamless. Everything is pickup or delivery. I tried to do some research, to see if this cloud kitchen has a parent restaurant. Based on similarities in menus, I will guess and say.....this is the vegetarian menu of Banana Blossom Thai.On Dec 29, I ordered Imperial Rolls and Pad Se-Ew. In general, the food is good. The Imperial Rolls are not greasy or oily. The rolls are deep-fried, wrapped with vegetables, taro, and bean thread noodle.Pad Se-Ew is fried flat rice noodles with tofu, soybean, broccoli, carrot, and egg. This dish resembles chinese chow fun. But takes a step up when tofu is added. Also, the veggies aren't cooked tender, they're a little crunchy. This dish is loaded with broccoli and carrots.The takeout boxes are simple white cardboard, so the fried rice noodles don't get too soggy as the container allows steam to escape.

I hate giving restaurants low ratings - but this one in particular was so overwhelmingly disappointing. Thin Pan is part of the Oakland Food Hall (Jingletown eats) that does only pick up and delivery orders. This restaurant in particular is a ghost kitchen for Banana Blossom Thai. I ordered by calling them via the phone number listed because I like to support the local restaurant as much as possible when I can, without giving money to delivery apps. Also, I was picking it up.Parking at the Oakland food hall is primarily on the street. There is a tiny lot for 15 min parking around the corner, but it was full when I drove by two times. I ended up parking one block further down on a side street. When you enter the building to pick up your order, you sign in on one of two iPads on the right hand side. Then your food can either be collected in a locker, or you go up to the counter to get personalized help and figure out what is going on. Because I ordered via phone, I called again and an employee was gracious enough to bring the food out to me and charge me on the spot via a square device. I got the Thai Samosas and a Tofu Pad Kee Mao (drunken noodles). The Thai Samosas were okay - four came in the order and they came with a side of sweet & sour sauce. The Pad Kee Mao was unfortunately inedible. the whole dish had an overwhelmingly sour taste, and the vegetables and tofu tasted like they were going bad and had been sitting out for several days. For anyone who has had this dish, it's supposed to be spicy and savory - not sour. The noodles all stuck together from a combination of lack of sauce as well as being overcooked. This dish was so bad that I ended up having to throw it away, and find something else to eat - essentially wasting $30 for me. A complete and utter disappointment.

Very tasty vegan Thai food from a "Ghost Kitchen."We picked up at this off the beaten path location which appears to be a central complex of kitchens for a dozen or more restaurants. We ordered green papaya salad, Thai fried rice, basil mushrooms, and green beans with beyond me. Everything was well prepared we we will be ordering there again in the future.

when I ask for no tomatoes nor onions, I expect that to be respected so that food does not go to waste. additionally, 3 pieces of tofu in the whole dish?? WTF?

This place is AMAZING. Super flavorful, food portions and always love a place where everything is vegetarian/vegan. We got delivery drunken noodles, thom ka, and green curry and it was perfect for a cozy night in with plenty of leftovers.

So excited to have a vegan/veg Thai place here in Oakland. Our favorites are the crispy rice salad and papaya salad on a hot day.

Yes, great to have an all vegetarian Thai option!Their portions are great, and with the Crispy Rice Salad (Nam Kao), I had no idea what to expect. It was DELICIOUS, and not like anything I've ever had (similar to fried rice, but the crispiness reminded me of the way the rice sticks to the inside of claypots - so fun!). My one request is that there be a fake chicken "add-on" option for this dish so I can make it an entree! I've also had the Praram Tofu, also delicious (one of my fave all-time Thai dishes) - really great flavors, and nothing felt over-oiled.
