IRating 4.5. had heard of this place from a friend. We were…read morein the neighbourhood so we stopped in for lunch. It is bright, clean and they have a wonderful menu of ALL vegan and gf food. Everything is made in house and nothing is deep fried and no refined sugar used.....so no guilt happy eating. They have an extensive dessert display and I had the peach crumble bar which was yummy! I shared the cauliflower wings with spicy sauce and arancini with cashew "blue" cheeze. Both were tasty and satisfying. I wanted the potato soup with coconut bacon but found it slightly bland and it just tasted like coconut chunks in the soup vs "bacon" flavour(likely seasoning dissolved off in the soup). I had the warrior "taco" which was basically a lettuce wrap. It was very tasty but difficult to eat snd messy. The sun dried tomato flavour was so good. I love lettuce wraps but need to find a clever way of eating it more neatly. Hubby and friend had the chickpea burger with baked sweet potato and regular fries. We all left satisfied and happy

My favourite vegan/vegetarian restaurant so far…read more I appreciate that they use real ingredients and abstain from refined sugars... I ordered the: 1. Falafel bowl: The tzatziki sauce tasted exactly like tzatziki sauce using yogurt etc. The falafels are baked and not deep fried. Con for me was the price - $16 is steep. 2. Pumpkin cheezcake: Absolute must get. I prefer this to regular cheesecake - sweetened with maple syrup. The crust is made from dates and maybe something else. The coconut whip cream is a nice substitute for the regular whip cream. GET THIS. 3. Oat cranberry walnut cookie: Get this - end of story 4. Double chocolate sweet potatoe cookie: This was a bit odd; It was not as satisfying as the oat cranberry walnut cookie. However, I still devoured it. Service: The ladies behind the counter were very helpful, and patient with me. The kitchen seemed a bit slow, given the restaurant was only 20% full. If I'm in Hamilton, I will definitely visit again.

Favorites include the arugula chick pea and black bean salad with jalenepeno pesto, any of their baked goods and sweets as well as their pizza. I LOVE that their pasta dishes feature Artie's handmade pasta (the best!) - but honestly was a little chewy recently with the pasta dish I got - could have gone for another minute. The standout for us was the desert - holy cow!! The Really Really Fudgey Brownie was UNREAL!! Sooo good. Service is friendly and helpful; you can tell the employees like their jobs, which helps the food taste even better. Their somewhat recent makeover and rebrand gives the restraunt a slightly more upscale feel which I'm not mad about. I love that you can dine outdoors as well, and bring your dog if you wish.

I sent it back for another one that came out raw as well, we had the second one put back in the oven and took it to go. I should have looked more closely at it before leaving, because when I was home I found the crust was still raw and inedible. It was the first and only time I have ever had to send food back at a restaurant. Our server relayed a message from the kitchen suggesting we request our pizza "well done" in future.

Bridges is a hipster vegetarian place located in McMaster Campus right under Phoenix. Although…read moreMcMaster students come here most often, this place welcomes everyone as they take cash and mac card. The way it runs is sort of like a cafeteria slash food court where you carry your own dishes to your seat and clean up after you're finished. The staff are really friendly and food is prepared fairly quickly. I love their soy chicken nuggets, sweet potato fries and garlic bread. They also have great butter chicken. Although the chicken is not real meat, the texture and taste is still really great! The lasagna and pasta is mediocre, though they do let you customize your own pasta. Highly recommend this place for vegetarian consumers and people who require gluten free meals as they list items that are gluten free as well!!

I beaten in hundreds of Indian restaurants, and many have their own distinct charm…read more I love the food and ambience at this restaurant. It's big enough to go alone, with friends or with a group of friends. The food is vibrant looking. The flavours are delicious and inviting. Tonight, I am having the Murgh Irani, and the Dal Makhani. I have had these dishes before and have never been disappointed. A Murg is a chicken dish with cashews, cream, mushrooms and black pepper. They provide a handsome portion of white meat, and the sauce is velvety rich. It is by far my favourite dish here. I have never had it h this way at any other restaurant. Dal is a staple to many, but with the addition of red kidney beans, it becomes a hearty meal all in itself. It is made with black Dal as opposed to the milder yellow dal that appears on most menus. The best part for me is that I can eat such a meal and they can make it gluten free. Please be aware to ask about the pakoras if you have celiac disease. Even though they are listed as gluten free, and are made with chickpea flour, they share a deep fryer, so are not suitable for people with Celiac Disease.

The chicken chorizo chimichanga was very big, filled with cheese, with a crispy outside. The only downside to my visit was having to wait for the waiter to come to take our order.

Pleasant surprise! I…read morewas in the area for work, and full disclosure, meant to try Cowabunga Pizza only to learn the don't sell by slice. I fortunately saw Em Oi when walking barely a block away and gave it a try. It seems to have two areas, though through the same entrance. The one is somewhat more formal dinning with a full bar, and I didn't check the menu however. But you can walk to the other area which also has a counter and is a bit more casual, selling baos, banh mi and a few other items. I went with the char siu banh mi which has the meat served warm. It was very tasty and the veggies were super crisp and the bun was excellent. The (likely) homemade mayo is a notch above as well and I liked that I could request some chili added. I also had the fried chicken bao. Fairly straightforward, but it a good way being made fresh with a generous piece of fried chicken in the bao with some sauce, cilantro and carrot. I loved it all and prices were fantastic. The banh mi about $8 and the bao I think at $5. The pricing would've been fair 10 years ago, so to have it like this now is great.
