My Dad and I are both vegan and we really appreciated the vegan/vegetarian labels in the menu.We started our meal with Tom kha soup and vegetable dumplings. Both were amazing! So flavorful and delicious.For our entrées, my mom had shrimp pad Thai, I had the tofu pad Thai (no egg), and my Dad had the massaman curry with tofu. Everything was delicious, and super filling! All of the vegan food here was incredible. We will definitely be back!

We sat down on these fragile chairs that feel like they'll collapse at any minute, and make noise when you move them. Still nobody to take our order. I told my friend that we wait five minutes and then we leave. We waited eight. I went to the front to ask for menus. The lady was hiding behind a wall, pretending that she couldn't hear me. Oh, but she was very attentive to the phone orders though, so there's that. We got the hell out of there.Do your jobs or get a different one.

For years, finding good Mediterranean options in New Haven was a struggle, but Koon has finally filled that gap. The grilled branzino and seasonal veggies are incredible, and the service is always attentive. The servers have taught me a lot about Mediterranean cuisine, and I appreciate that. Start with the house-made falafel balls and definitely order extra tzatziki on the side - you won't regret it!

What a chance stumbling upon this place. I don't know exactly what I ordered but this place is one of the best vegan friendly restaurants I've ever been to. The food was on point and wasn't very greasy at all. Nice service and they also asked if I wanted my dish any spicier which I didn't. Very quiet and ambient atmosphere. Highly recommend this place to anyone either coming to or passing through New Haven. Very good experience!
