Parking: The Pre-Meal Adventure First things first--parking is a sport here. I mean, it's near the water, so of course there is limited space. It took me a solid half hour to park. By the time I walked in, I felt like I had already burned off dessert. Service with Space The service was chill and patient--no pressure, no hovering. I was offered suggestions, politely declined, and eventually made up my mind like the independent vegan foodie I pretend to be. Food Chronicles I dove into the Mystical Mushroom Quesadilla with walnut meat. Now, let me confess: this was my first time eating walnut meat, it was an interesting experience... a little sweeter than my taste buds were emotionally prepared for, but hey--growth! I'll have to try it without the walnut meat next time. The real showstopper..The kale chips. I'm pretty sure they were kale chips, but honestly they tasted like crispy little blessings from above. Heaven-sent. Then came the Loving Lasagna, and WOW. Extremely good. The sauces were divine, like they'd been whisked by angels with excellent seasoning skills. I absolutely recommend it--10/10, would eat again and again. read more

Peace Pies is a raw restaurant, meaning their food is vegan, gluten-free, and also soy-free. drinks & desserts. Of all the delicious raw take on popular dishes, my favorites are the Voltaire Tacos, Luna Tuna Wrap, and the Bliss Burger. Everything is so flavorful and delicious it makes hard to believe it is raw food restaurant! Each order comes with a side of kale chips. While they are tasty, the cheezy flavor is a little too much for me personally. In addition to pizzas, salads, and wraps, Peace Pies offers a variety of dessert including pies, cheezecakes, and various versions of your favorite chocolate bars. While I have enjoyed many of the desserts, the cheezecake is phenomenal! So creamy and rich! read more

This is my all time favorite place. When the origional restaurant burned I was devistated because this place is so good and unbelivable because its raw and tastes amazing. I feel great when I eat here. Last. time I was in unfortunately another customer harassed me in the way of taking photos secretly. The staff made sure I got to my car safe and asked the man to leave. Reallve very clean atmosphere knowladgable staff and delicious food. read more

Delicious. We really enjoyed our experience and will return for more. Thanks for making the day special as we were celebrating 19 years together and wanted to explore and try something new. What a great find in Encinitas-Peace Pies! read more

My husband and I drove all the way from LA just to try Peace Pies, and let me tell you it was worth every mile. The meal we had here is one that we simply will not forget because it was so dang delicious. It is heartbreaking that it is so far away because I would be frequenting here every week if I could, but I surely will come back. We came in late Sunday afternoon, and the store was very calm and peaceful with just a couple of other patrons. There was just one individual at the counter when we arrived who was very kind and took our order. My husband ordered the Majestic Mediterranean Wrap and I had the Buffalo Falafel Wrap. Both wraps were so fresh and bursting with flavor and came with a side of kale chips that are out of this world. You can tell that all of the ingredients and produce used are high quality. The colors of the ingredients are also gorgeous. The portion sizes are generous, but the taste is so good that we both easily finished our wraps. After this, we ordered a chocolate mylkshake and a Samoa for dessert. Both were absolutely divine. We were so blown away by everything that we had that we ordered another wrap (magical mango curry wrap) and took a case of kale chips home. The magical mango was our least favorite out of the three wraps, but it was still really good. The food at Peace Pies is deeply nourishing, which is a rarity with modern day food. Your body will truly thank you for eating Peace Pies. I am so sad I cannot have it every day. read more

My first time at any raw food restaurant, much less a vegan, gluten free, soy free, peanut free one. We had the bruschetta, mushroom stroganoff, loving lasagna, avocado toast, and a strawberry cheezcake for desert. . We all sampled all the dishes and my conclusion is I really don't like raw vegan gluten free, soy free, peanut free food. I was the minority view, everyone else was very happy. A separate customer we spoke to was ecstatic about the food. Compromising on 4 stars, 4- 5 star reviews and a single 2 star. So I would definitely recommend you try it, there is probably no better place to see if you like raw food. Since I suspect there will be a return visit, I will probably go for a salad. read more

Peace Pies is hands down the best place for raw food. I had the Carnitas Burrito and Bruschetta as an appetizer -- both were fresh, flavorful, and super satisfying. We sat outside and the weather was perfect, which made the experience even better. A must-visit if you're into raw, plant-based meals! read more

Definitely one of the better vegan restaurants I've been to. (I'm not vegan.) Their dishes are named after common non-vegan dishes but they don't try to make it taste the same. They make it their own. Vegan take. None of that fake cheese nonsense =) Really liked their mushroom stroganoff. Like I mentioned earlier, they don't try to imitate the non-vegan dish so don't expect stroganoff. It was cold, kelp noodles, with mushrooms and avocado. Pretty darn good. The mushroom quesadilla is supposedly really popular. It was good but a little sweet. That one was packed full of mushrooms. The snacks are also really good. Especially the kale chips and cheeze its. read more

This is one of the best places to eat hands down! Incredible food and atmosphere. The quesadillas is the best and is so filling. Can't wait to try everything on the menu. The horchata smoothie is also amazing. read more

What an absolute gem. If I lived nearby, I'd ask the staff to hurry up and give me a nickname because I'd be a regular like clockwork. Alas, I don't live nearby. A stellar stop should you find yourself driving between Los Angeles and San Diego, or thereabouts. Like I did. If you do live close, lucky you. Newly introduced, I didn't know where to start. I asked about fan favorites and was directed to the mushroom quesadilla. "Everyone on Yelp loves it." Well goddamn. Feel free to include me on the "everyone" list. A tough task, creating a raw quesadilla that can stand up to its traditional, melty cousin. But stand up it does. My wife isn't big on mushrooms, but she was eyeing my half like I was going to have to fight for it. The faux-tuna wrap was spot on. A lot of greens and sprouts, extremely fresh, a crunch factor with a dressing that tied it all together like Lebowski's rug. And the kelp salad was blessed with just the right amount of olives to keep it fun. I used to be disinterested in raw spots. I found the flavors too consistent across the menu, too many dried seed everythings. Too bland, too much not enough. Undoubtedly healthy, but the taste buds want what the taste buds want. Peace Pies took the healthiness, kept that core of the raw lifestyle, and turned up all the rest. What an uplifting spot to hang. Probably a mile or less off the ocean, it's got that sleepy town attitude where fog chills the quiet air outside, and you get to kick back and recharge. They've got big, beautiful plants, a gorgeous passionfruit vine mural, and a deck outside to enjoy the bites and the breeze. I'm a fan of the color palette. Nice decor without going overboard or out of bounds, pillows to lean on, sunlight popping through to hit all the right spots. As far as I can tell, everything is made in-house. Even the coconut tortillas, which they sell separately if you want to get fancy at home. I'm a little sad I didn't try the walnut meat, or the durian smoothy. Durian? In smoothies? Normally worth a chuckle, but I bet Peace Pies handles it with care. The staff were cool folks, there to spread friendliness and care through soul-nourishing food and a place to unplug. Good food and a table to enjoy it are the ultimate display of welcome. I wish we could've stayed longer. A shame, when the daily grind drags us back when the heart wants to stay put. I would've lounged an hour or two on the patio. Maybe sipped a tea and tried one of those sweets in the cooler that couldn't stop looking at me. Closed my eyes, breathed deeply, and noshed 'til I could nosh no more. There's always next time... Well, at least I hope there is. Next time, it will have to be. read more

Celebrated my birthday at one of my favorite vegan spots--Peace Pies! This place truly delivers real food made with love. The newly renovated space is absolutely magical and welcoming! It's got a modern touch with a cute, cozy vibe. We arrived for lunch and were lucky to snag a lovely indoor spot. The interior is open and bright, with dessert displays that made me want to try everything! Some standout menu items: Chips and guac app- beautifully plated and a healthy starter! Magical Mango Curry Wrap (my all-time favorite) - Avocado, mango, and mixed veggies all wrapped in a coconut tortilla, served with coconut curry sauce. It's super filling, packed with fresh veggies. Mystical Mushroom Quesadilla - A red bell tortilla stuffed with cheez, 'sautéed' mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, and greens, served with guacamole. This is a close second for me--can't resist anything with mushrooms! Also, a special shoutout to their kale chips, which are hands down the best in town. I don't even mind getting kale stuck in my teeth, they're that good. LOL! To top it off, I had their refreshing sugarcane juice--my go-to whenever I see it on the menu! Even my non-vegan friends loved their meals and couldn't believe everything was raw vegan. I always love seeing people's reactions when they try this place for the first time, and it's always positive! Healthy, cruelty-free food that's both delicious and satisfying--Peace Pies does it right! To make the day even sweeter, they surprised me with a chocolate dessert when they found out it was my birthday. It was the perfect way to end my birthday lunch! Thank you, Peace Pies, for always serving up amazing food and service. I could eat here every day! read more

If I could give this place 10 stars I would! The food is phenomenal. Thus far I've had three different wraps, the Mediterranean, Buffalo and mango (least favorite) and all of them have been fantastic. Today I tried the street tacos and the pizza and they were perfectly flavored, well portioned, and just perfect. The staff is nice, attentive if you need anything and very welcoming. The place is fairly small but tucked behind another business so it gives a feel of cozy and quiet. I highly recommend this place to any and all regardless of any sort of food allergy, dietary restriction or not. read more

Great menu, wonderful ideas. Sauces are delightful Problem.... truly was not expecting the mushroom stroganoff to be cold. Maybe slightly warm or even room temperature but cold was a little strange. The flavor was great maybe that needs to be on the menu somewhere? I'm a little afraid to try the lasagna or the pizza or the quesadilla because I will be expecting them to be warm and if they are cold I'm not quite sure how my taste buds will react. This might be a ME thing, but I was just caught off guard. read more

Very fun! The dishes are vegan and raw (all of them?) so don't be surprised that since things are uncooked they are served cold. Really interesting recipes. We had the Mushroom Quesadilla (cashew cheese, I think) and Bliss Burger (dried tomato and walnut burger) and quite enjoyed both. The best bite was the dark chocolate "Almond Joy" treat stuffed with coconut, yum! Next time I'm trying the kelp noodle Mushroom Stroganoff and the "Butterfinger" treat. read more

Absolutely the best place to eat if you want to feel good about what you put in your body, not to mention supporting a local business. Every item is served with loving care. My favorites are the chocolate shake, caeser wrap, caeser salad, buffalo falafel wrap and the Twix bar. read more

This is my top raw vegan eatery in San Diego county. The food is fresh and delicious and the atmosphere is so inviting. I must say that I do love this location the most. I am happy and thankful that they were able to rebuild after their business was destroyed in a terrible fire. I'm a huge fan of their toffee, sometimes I'll drive all the way to Encinitas just to grab a little box of it. I also really like the mushroom quesadilla and the Caesar wrap. read more

OMG! This place is awesome! All the food is made in house. There's nothing this vegetarian/vegan can't eat. Nothing is processed and nothing added but healthy ingredients. Lori got the Street Taco (she could only finish one but loved it) and I got the Bliss Burger, fully loaded with mushrooms, guac and their own catchup. If you're a carnivore I suggest giving this place a try. The food is all first rate in quality and taste. What an amazing find. We brought Coraline, our Pit Mix and they welcomed her. read more

I am soul-grateful Peace Pies is back in Leu! You feel the purity & wholesomeness of the business right when you walk through the doors. So many things I could highlight about the nourishing dishes - first off, each meal is presented colorfully & full of fresh living foods. You know exactly what you are getting, and the consistency is there every time. The menu is dynamic, offering healthy takes on popular dishes. Their seasonal and daily specials are not to be missed! I'm always surprised by how content I feel halfway through my meals, because the dishes are nutrient dense and filling. You feel the love transferred through each bite! Raw food absolutely is an acquired taste as it may be more earthy to those used to the traditional American diet. It's absolutely worth offering a try, especially to those seeking healthier lifestyle shifts, navigating chronic illness, or simply those who are foodies seeking a unique and grassroots experience. Some of my favorite menu items - nachos, mint chip smoothie, quesadilla, wraps, & the delicious desserts! read more

This place is the real deal for vegetarians and vegans but also beautiful for meat lovers as well. As a vegetarian this place only uses dehydration methods to cook their producer along with fresh ingredients. Got the kale and kelp salad with buffalo falafel to go for my partner and I - and WOW wow wow. Delicious, filling and can taste the thoughtfulness into the food. It's a little pricey but totally worth it for the food. read more

A friend told me about this place and was finally able to check it out. Slightly hidden, but super cute inside. I decided to try the quesadillas based on the reviews. The cashier was super sweet and helpful. Once I got home to try, my first few bites were good, but kept tasting something really sweet... at 1st I thought it may have been the cashew cheese, as I was skeptical about( not a fan of fake cheese) but it actually was really good, and not where the sweetness was coming from. After practically dissecting the quesadillas, I finally just called to ask. Turns out they make their tortillas using coconut and agave with the red bell peppers. Sadly if I had know that either were used in the making, I would've ordered something else. Besides, the extra sweet tortillas everything else was quite yummy. I will most likely be back to try something else.... But will just need to double check what all the ingredients are. read more
