We'll come check them out again.

The same place where I once ordered the Dahnu Wrap, one of the stellar dishes written in my previous review before it disappeared into thin air. All the same staff working here were mellow. The small indoor seating area was limited; thus, takeout would be much easier. I'm feeling so good getting used to raw foods that there are so many to choose from. Since I chose both the raw cheesecake and the Sem Sandwich, I might come back for another. I'll have to wait for raw açaí during hot weather days. I hope other Yelp elites will choose to go to Ping's Raw Foods and experience it themselves. Vegan raw foods similar to sushi are, to me, have probiotics that are good for the gut.

Incredible Treats by Ping's Raw Foods!…read more I just had to share my experience with Ping's Raw Foods because, honestly, their desserts are next-level! I've been trying to eat healthier, but I still crave something sweet, and Ping's has been a total game-changer for me. First of all, the ice cream is unbelievable. I was so impressed by how creamy and rich it is, especially considering it's all raw and made with natural ingredients. I tried the berry and the date flavor, and both were out of this world--so full of flavor and perfectly sweetened! The granola is another thing I can't get enough of. It's crunchy, flavorful, and just sweet enough without being overwhelming. I love enjoying it every morning with some yogurt, and it's the perfect way to start the day. I also ordered one of the cakes, and wow, it did not disappoint! Incredibly wonderful and full of flavor. I've had vegan raw cakes before, but this was hands down the best I've ever had. And the dessert squares--they're like little bites of heaven! I love having one (or two) after dinner. They're perfectly balanced with just the right mix of textures and flavors, and they totally hit the spot when I need a sweet fix. Honestly, everything I've tried from Ping's Raw Foods has exceeded my expectations. I can't believe how amazing healthy desserts can taste! If you're looking for guilt-free indulgence, these desserts are an absolute must. And..I just found out that Ping's Raw Foods is making some exciting changes!! If you're a fan of their incredible vegan ice cream, granola, cakes, and dessert squares like I am, you'll want to hear this. They're switching things up and moving from wholesale to retail orders now! What does that mean for us? Well, no more waiting for your favorite treats to hit the shelves in stores--you can now order directly from them and pick up your goodies at three different locations on select days. I'm really excited because it means you can get those fresh, raw, and healthy desserts you love on your own schedule. No more hunting down stock in stores or worrying if they've sold out--just place an order and pick it up when it's convenient for you. I don't have all the details yet, but I'm definitely keeping my eye out for more info. If you haven't tried their stuff yet, now's the perfect time to give it a go!

Lake Baikal Siberian Pine Nut Butter - Alive & Organic…read more I am a real nut and seed butter lover. I have tried many. I am also a pine nut fan. I make pesto weekly, with fresh organic basil and organic extra virgin olive oil. Sometimes, I eat pine nuts as a snack. I had never heard of Siberian Pine Nuts until I came upon this delicacy. This is a real treat. It has the most delicate buttery, creamy, slightly sweet and complex taste. It was very hard to put the spoon down. This is perfect for dipping fruit, spreading on toast, for adding to a smoothie or making pesto; but I honestly wouldn't. This is a real indulgence on its own. I absolutely recommend this product. It's raw, organic, made by an amazing company; it's a real sensory experience. True delicacy!

The quality of the products is second to none, i.e. the almond butter is the best among any brand I've ever tasted, and the seeds, spices, honey, cacao, coconut butters, sugars, grains, nuts and oils that I have ordered have all been extremely fresh and vibrant-tasting. Even though the products had to be shipped across the country from the West to the East coast to reach my door, they always arrive undamaged and taste like they have just been harvested. I wish I lived in Berkeley because then I would be begging for a job at LTC! From the bottom of my heart, thank you for helping educate and supply the healthiest living foods so that we all can live a long and healthy life!

Awesome place and wonderful staff!…read more We came to Cured after meaning to go for some time, and can't wait to go back! As it was our first visit, we got the full download on the menu. Recommend getting between 5-7 dishes depending on how hungry you are. Went with the mussels, oysters, albacore, king salmon, and the star of the show, the bluefin tuna cowboy style. Every dish was beautifully plated with its own complex and distinct flavors. The servers do a great job of timing the dishes just right once you're ready for the next one. We wish we had more room in our stomach to try more dishes from the menu.

Finally decided to try Cured Fish Bar for happy hour and dinner. We walked in on a Friday and…read moreordered multiple items to share between 2 people. I recommend making a reservation just in case since seating is limited. Some of our favorite bites were the anchovy toast and the seafood chowder. The total bill was over $100 and neither of us were particularly that full, just satiated enough. I don't recommend coming here for a full dinner if you're hungry or have a large party. You can definitely get full, but it will cost you! It's a nice appetizer/happy hour spot as a precursor though. Overall it was a nice experience and we'd stop by again to explore any new menu additions!

Ordering is simple since its displayed on the wall and you can see what they add in, right in front of you, and the staff is quick and nice! writing this order, makes me want another bowl! The place has seating if you want to sit there and eat, but I usually take it for togo. 10/10 would recommend this place. I love how they have unique sauses like mango mayo and blueberry mayo. mango mayo is sooo goood and I personally think blueberry mayo is ok. I think they also have wasabi mayo to add on top if you guys are into wasabi. when ordering, I always flex between a large bowl and a regular bowl but I always get: Base: Sushi white rice, no greens protein: spicy tuna, and regular tuna sauces: ( regular spicy, house, sasame oil) toppings: cucumbers, edamame, corn, masago, apple strips, seaweed salad, and crab salad. dressing: mango mayo, spicy mayo, and unagi sauce dried toppings: furikake, onions, crispy noodles.

Cute interior, ample parking, and the friendliest staff that's more than accommodating. I got a regular bowl which comes with a choice of black rice, white sushi rice, or salad as your has option, three proteins and a bunch of free toppings. I had half and half black & white rice with a bit of salad on top per the suggestion of the worker. The spicy salmon is apparently not always there but it sure was today so I had to try it. Would recommend. I got the spicy shrimp and spicy tuna for my other options. For my toppings I got every free option and a light unagi drizzle to finish. Generous is an understatement. It's probably double the amount of protein you actually need and I bet not a single soul would complain. I went home and weighed everything out cuz I'm cutting some weight so here's the main ingredients by the gram if you're curious: 725 cals, 57P, 18F, 83C (not including veg toppings and sauces): - 125g black rice - 130g white sushi rice - 65g spicy tuna - 50g spicy shrimp - 70g spicy salmon - 65g crab mix - 35g avocado If you add all the other stuff it's still probs under 1000 cals. Great healthy meal. Fresh ingredients, great flavor, well worth the $20 after tax. Will return whenever I'm in the area.

Words alone can't capture the depth of what Peña Pachamama offers. Nestled in the heart of San…read moreFrancisco, this place is not just a venue -- it's a heartbeat. A living, breathing celebration of history, legacy, and indigenous roots, Peña Pachamama stands tall as a beacon calling people -- especially Native and South American communities -- back to their heritage. From the moment you enter, you're enveloped in vibrant color and rhythm. The ambience is electric yet sacred, filled with intention and spirit. The menu, mostly vegan and raw, feels like an extension of the earth -- wholesome, healing, and deeply rooted in Pachamama herself. But the soul of Peña Pachamama lies in its performances. Dancers move with raw emotion, blending the passion of tango and flamenco with indigenous rhythms. You're not just watching -- you're part of it. The performers often invite the audience to join, blurring the line between spectator and participant in the most joyful way. The instruments, many of South American origin, carry ancient vibrations. Before each performance, there's an introduction -- not just of the dance or music, but of the why. The significance. The roots. It's a moving reminder that in today's world, inclusion must mean honoring those who've been forgotten too long. What stands out most is the deep respect they give to the culture, the traditions, and the artists -- not as entertainment, but as sacred carriers of heritage. Every gesture, every note, every step is offered with reverence. This isn't just entertainment -- it's cultural reclamation. It's spiritual. It's personal. The mousse here is absolutely exquisite -- a masterclass in texture, temperature, and consistency. Every spoonful felt like silk on the palate. Truly mind-blowing. I also had the lasagna, and it was exceptional. Vegetarian lasagna is a rare find done right, but this one hit every note -- rich, hearty, and deeply satisfying without being heavy. It's comfort food elevated with finesse. The entire platter was beautifully presented and thoughtfully composed. Every element felt intentional, and together they created a meal that was both nourishing and exciting. As someone who seeks out vegetarian options, this was a standout experience -- one I'd gladly return for. Bonus: Marilyn Monroe once graced this space. So did several Grammy-winning artists. But what makes Peña Pachamama iconic is not who's been -- it's what it continues to be.

Food Review: Acai Bowl ($11) Açaí, Banana, Blueberry, with Pumpkin Flax Granola is reasonably priced but didn't include blueberries. Tall to go glass with lots of purplish acai. You need to pay for other add-ons. This is ok, I prefer Palmetto's version. 8/10 Buttermilk biscuit ($6) was huge, but that was the only thing positive. Dry, dense, lacked flavor. 5/10 Exodus ($16) A fragrant and flavorful fried rice. Basmati rice cooked with mixed veggies in coconut oil and tamari Sauce. Topped with marinated kale, sprouts, hemp seed, and vegan walnut parmesan. This could have easily cost over $20 downtown. Rich flavor and hearty rice dish. 9/10 Soup Mahendra (Full $12) is their signature soup. Cauliflower, green lentils, potato, sweet potato, and spice medley. Topped with marinated kale and vegan walnut parmesan. Reasonable size for a soup with lots of ingredients. 9/10 Overall - Good Food - Good Decor - Good Service - Good Value - Very Good Would we come back - Maybe

The ambiance is beautiful, and the service was attentive throughout our meal.
