    Delicious baked goods! Great variety of goodies. 10/10 recommend! Purchased from food stand at local event.

    While I miss their dinner offerings, Lovin Spoonfuls remains a don't-miss for the vegan or veggie-leaning crew for their extensive menu of breakfast options (burritos, pancakes, scrambles) as well as salads and lunch sandwiches. We tried their falafel salad, gyro sandwich and potato tofu breakfast burrito. Portions are generous and food was served quickly. Staff are kind and manage the steady stream of customers well. Even if I am just stopping by, I will always be entranced by their vegan desserts, many of them gluten free, too! We tried a lemon curd cupcake which was the perfect sweet ending to a fresh but hearty meal.

    A staple for vegans & even NON vegans in Tucson. You'll find fantastic bakery items , monthly networking mixers , great staff , holiday specials and events , you can special order cakes and pies for special occasions , and some yummy tummy loving comfort food ! A regular stop for me . I often come for early AM breakfast , something hard to find as a vegan .

    Wait... it's vegan?! Yes- it really is! A yelp event brought us here, the incredible food and smiling staff keep bringing us back! The southwest burrito is so good- green chilies in it are perfect! Or get it as a bowl and snag a pancake or toast on the side! The chicken and waffles have you questioning everything they are an easy swap for the "real thing". The strawberry cheesecake pancakes are downright glorious and we somehow always make room for some! The mango smoothie with chamoy is so fun and refreshing too! Staff are always so nice- Melody always has an infectious smile on when we come in! The overall vibe is chill and perfect for a weekend brunch!

    Southwest bowl!

    I really like vegan restaurants because the food tends to receive a lot of attention and loving care, and this was no exception. I've visited several times over the years, but it had been a while, and I'm happy to see that they're still going strong! My selection was the southwest bowl. Grand slam - delicious. The tofu scramble was masterfully seasoned, and while it isn't exactly like eggs, it's darn good and not too far off. The sourdough toast was a bit thin (which is fine with me), but otherwise, what a great brunch. I'll be back for more!

    Some of the best vegan food you'll find anywhere! We had the chicken dinner and it was fabulous. Their prices are excellent and they have such a great variety of dishes. Ambiance not so great though. I do think they really need to update their dining area as it's looking pretty run down.

    This place has all the classics but vegan. There breakfast potatoes are some of the best in town and when available the banana bread French toast is sublime. Staff is always welcoming and the atmosphere is classic diner style.

    This place was so so delicious. Everything we tried was good and flavorful. From the sauces to the textures. EVERYTHING was on point. Highly recommend the chicken sandwich with that bleu chez... YUM.

    Chicken Alfredo
    Sabrina W.

    Lovin' Spoonfuls is our go-to spot every year when we come to Tucson for the gem show, and it's absolutely worth the trip from California. As vegans, it's such a relief to find food that's not only plant-based but also delicious and high quality. The chicken Alfredo is my favorite and the texture is shockingly close to real chicken. We also love the battered cauliflower wings and the hummus with za'atar grilled flatbread, which is a must-order appetizer. We always end up ordering way too much because everything is so good. On top of the amazing food, the staff is always super friendly and welcoming. It's one of those places that just feels good to come back to. We're already looking forward to our next visit.

    Buffalo Wild Wings
    Teresa B.

    Cauliflower "Buffalo Wings" That Hit the Spot! I wasn't sure what to expect when I swapped out traditional Buffalo wings for a vegan version made with cauliflower, but wow--these were a game-changer. The cauliflower had the perfect texture: crispy on the outside, tender in the middle, and surprisingly satisfying. What really made them stand out, though, was the sauce. The vegan Buffalo-style sauce was sweet with just the right kick of spice--it didn't overpower, but it definitely had a little fire to it. The sweetness balanced it out beautifully, giving it that addictive flavor that keeps you going back for more. Paired with a side of cool vegan ranch or a simple celery stick, this dish is easily one of the best meat-free appetizers I've had in a while. Whether you're vegan, curious, or just trying to eat more plants, these cauliflower wings are absolutely worth a try. Vegan Philly Cheesesteak That Almost Had Me Fooled Tried a vegan take on the classic Philly cheesesteak, and while it didn't totally hit the mark, it still had its charms. The "steak" was made from soy, and the texture was a bit on the soft side--would've loved a bit more crisp or sear to give it that fried bite. That said, it looked and smelled just like the real thing, which was pretty impressive. The flavors were all there--savory, cheesy, and satisfying enough that I ended up finishing the whole thing. Paired with some solid French fries, it made for a comforting, casual meal. Not perfect, but definitely worth trying if you're craving a plant-based version of the classic. Beyond the food, the restaurant itself was super clean and inviting. The vibe was relaxed, and the service was awesome--friendly, attentive, and fast without feeling rushed. You can tell they really care about the experience. I'll definitely be back to try more!

    Been here 2 times now. Loved the food the first time, came back to try their chicken & waffles. Looks unwhelming but turned out tasty. Very casual, order at the counter, self serve water. Plenty of tables. Friendly service. Highly recommend if in Tucson for yummy vegan foods!

    Got a California burrito at the Vegan night market this past Saturday and feel entirely ripped off by the tiny burritos they were giving!! I just had a breakfast burrito there last weekend and it was twice the size of the one they gave me this last Saturday evening for $15. The burrito was cool but def wouldn't do it again for that rate for this tiny thing.

It's not going to be the best you ever had in your life, and if you've been to Southern China, you're not going to be blown away. HOWEVER, it is the homemade taste that makes it good. It doesn't feel like any other restaurant, it feels like you are at somebody's house. Here's the thing, I came in expecting the usual Chinese food affair, but I left genuinely surprised and impressed. This restaurants specializes in Southern Chinese food, which is different from other regions. I am so happy this restaurant and its chains helps the cuisine gain exposure and adds depth to Chinese food in general. Even better, the menu is laid out in a way that it is easy to understand: gluten-free options, allergies, and spice level. The service was great. All though it isn't a "full" sit-down restaurant, everybody there seemed to know the menu well and was happy to be there. As a Cantonese person, it was nice hearing my language being spoken in the kitchen. The restaurant itself was immaculately clean and very modern. We came during early dinner time so the parking lot was near empty and easy to park. Overall, if you've never had Southern Chinese food or are looking for something more authentic than classic Chinese takeaway, definitely check out this location. The cherry on top are the big portion sizes and the price.

Walking in from the parking lot, we were struck at how beautiful the whole temple/grounds were. Beautiful art/water features and statues. The food changes daily, I believe, but on our visit there was a salad bar (with spinach and lettuce options, shredded carrot, cucumber, two kinds of sprouts, chickpeas, grape tomatoes, and zucchini- also don't miss the delicious dressings! I got seconds on salad so I could try multiple dressings!). There was also brown rice and yellow rice options, steamed veggies and curry veggies, coconut chutney, chowmein, and vegan pizza. Oh and rice pudding and halva. Everything was simple and delicious. They have signs on the table about the food being prepared with the utmost cleanliness and love and I believe it. We sat inside (even though the courtyard was beautiful, it was still a bit sunny). Inside they were playing pan flute music and there was the gentle gurgle of a water feature and large crystals lining the wall. Heck yeah! After dinner we wandered around the grounds, admiring everything. I particularly enjoyed seeing Sufi the white turkey, and the peacocks, the pheasants, and the parrots! They were all adorable and seemed happy. The koi pond was also very zen and beautiful. I would definitely recommend this spot with the caveat that it's not for everyone- you have to go in with the knowledge you're eating simply, and all vegetarian, and you're entering a space where others live and worship. For the price, this was a great bargain. I'd love to visit again one day!

Food arrived just 15 min later and was piping hot and delicious. The lasagna is a good sized portion (roughly 5x7) and is generously filled with meat. Taste is amazing with medium-firm pasta and a nice crust across the top and sides. The ricotta calzone came with a side of marinara (yay) for dipping as there is no sauce inside. Roughly 2 dozen toppings are available, ranging from $3-$8+. I opted for the meatballs ($8.50) and was slightly disappointed. The meatballs are crumbled within the calzone (understandable) but not pronounced in quantity. I would prefer larger pieces (halves work at this size - after all I ordered meat-ball not meet-ground ;) However, for $8 (a 75% upcharge) my chief gripe is that I was simply expecting more.

Can't wait to try their new Detroit menu too! Note: due to Rene's smaller size (less than 10 tables total) and high demand, all reservations (any day) require a credit card to hold. This is entirely understandable as even one no-show is a measurable hit to keeping a full house. I also have kids yet 100% embrace their patio-only policy when with kiddos.
