    The entrance inside the building
    Jay J.

    When I saw Raw.....I got so excited! I try and eat raw most of the time about 4 to 5 days per week. and collard wraps is one of my favorites. When I arrived, I saw another Vegan eatery. I walked in, and looked at the menu, seeing how this is my last day here, I wanted to try them both. I decided to get the raw and eat it later. So here I am! It's just a small little place, nothing fancy, just come and order your food, you can eat in or take it to go. Susan was so sweet, we talked about this Collard wrap, I told her I make them too, but sometimes I just chop it all up, and put it in a bowl instead of trying to wrap it. Told her all the items I usually put in mine, and she said I was creative. I will update this once I eat the wrap! Update: I finally ate the wrap! Remember I said I make collard wraps! My collards are usually tuff. This collard was tender and fresh. (Even though I ate it almost 24 hrs later). With that being said you can get it the day before you go to work and it's still good! You already know I will be back on my next Fresno trip!

    I've come here a couple of times and this last time ordered the two entree special, groats and oats and a cinnamon roll. I really enjoy this place every time I go, but my partner is not a big fan. While I think this place is very healthy and true to its name with raw food, my partner who eats less vegan food thinks the flavors are a bit too strong/healthy tasting (if that's possible) and the portions smaller than what he's used to. For example, the "pizza" is in essence healthy toppings on some healthy cracker beds. I don't think this place is for everyone, but I appreciate the various ways in which this place tries to makes vegan food more accessible to people and stay creative in its offerings. I've been here a couple of times and have had people tell me about their meal plans and how much they appreciate them. Overall, this is a small vegan walk-up place to enjoy some solid vegan food and the owner is very kind and helpful as well.

    Food is always fresh, nutritious and delish! The owner Naomi is awesome as well, and is very passionate about providing healthy food for the community. Go support this lovely establishment!

    Every time I am on my eating good phase I come and visit them for fresh healthy and nourishing food. This is a great place to refresh your body mind and spirit. They have plenty of different menu items. From CBD coffee to a piece of cheese cake. Everything no regular processed sugar no junk only good natural ingredients. This is one of my favorite places to come. My body thanks me when I eat good. So this this I ordered something new. I got a verguer. It's a plant base burger with some spread and green as a wrap, it also had some avocado and some crunchy . It was very good. I got two slices of cheese one was grape and the other one was chocolate. They are very attentive and helpful. They always work on your order as soon as they can. And everything has been fresh. The ambience is casual and they get busy. They open from early morning 7:00 am to 3:00 pm and Saturdays from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. Highly recommended.

    Such a DEAL!

    The ONLY place in the Central Valley where you will get ORGANIC, NON GMO, gluten/dairy/sugar/soy AND peanut FREE food! Some of the most nutritious food one can get, is RIGHT. HERE. And if you haven't been here YET, you better get a move on. . . Her lease is up, she's planning on retiring & her last day will be 5/31/26. BOO-HOO!!! Owner Naomi Hendrix was the FIRST to bring the BEST quality 'Whole Foods' plant based meals to the area! She is a 'GIFT' to the Central Valley for THESE LAST 19 YEARS! I met her for the first time when she had her food truck in front of the Kaiser Farmer's Market. There, I first tried her Kale Caesar Salad. . . that DRESSING! I could eat MOUNTAINS of kale with that dressing! It was like 'crack', I HAD to HAVE the recipe! Fortunately (for me) she freely shared her recipe at Whole Foods Market where she taught cooking classes. She even shared it on a local news station for HEAVEN'S SAKE! What Chef shares her recipes?! She just wants people informed, and is EVER teaching and generously sharing her knowledge. She will even share her experience staying at the True North Fasting Center! Currently, she has a cooking class every Thursday night. She also offers a Lunch Subscription, with delivery to YOUR DOOR/included in the price! HOLY COW! It's a total of 14 meals that equals to about $12 each/INCLUDING delivery! NO. WAY! Well, WAAAAY! ;D You just can't beat THAT with a stick! ORGANIC?!! Amazing! She even sells her various salad dressings also! I took my engineer-husband here, who NEVER showed a prior interest in nutrition. . . He picked up Dr. Michael Greger's book, 'How Not to Die' that was displayed on the counter. He could NOT put it down. . . WHUUT? So, of course we BOUGHT a copy so he could finish it. It was his turning point! Thank you, Chef Naomi! As a matter of fact, Chef Naomi was instrumental in actually HAVING Dr. Michael Greger come to Fresno City College to lecture. TWICE! Just GUESS who really, REALLY wanted to attend besides MOI? Yep. Previously apathetic hubby. Truly, Chef Naomi is an 'institution'. Her CONSISTENT zeal to teach and generously share her knowledge kept me wondering where the passion came from. . . I recently bought her digital book that she has available (which includes the famous Caesar Salad Dressing recipe) It is a good, almost 'slideshow' type of presentation on educating yourself about basic nutrition. It has info about juicing, fermenting, reading labels, types of oil, etc.. Then I read the dedication; "In memory of my son Ian Zachary Smith. In 2006 my 21 year old son died of complications with Celiacs Disease.This woke me up to understanding how food affects all of our bodies. . . " I was stunned. Now I knew where the drive came from, to help others as she does with such care. I have never heard her mention it. My FAVORITE meal of all time, ANYWHERE, ANY PLACE is the 'Hail to The Kale'! The warm white beans on top, go perfectly with it. It truly is my COMFORT food! It checks all the boxes of satisfaction for me. I also enjoy the brownie and coconut bites. The lemon bar is fantastic also, it has a nice 'zing' to it. Experience it while you can! :)

    Menu- their combos and their drinks

    My husband and I are so happy we found this gem in Fresno! We have recently changed our diets quite a bit and really do miss eating out. Luckily Raw Fresno is there for you when you feel like eating out but also want to continue to be healthy. Most, if not all of their products are organic and everything is raw. If you're new to this, like I was, that essentially means that the fruits and vegetables are not cooked. Once you see what's on the menu and how delicious the food is you're going to be amazed that it's not actually cooked. We have tried everything from the wraps, the salads, the pizza, the coffee, and even the desserts! Everything is so healthy yet filling. My absolute favorite items are the desserts because I just can't believe that they don't have any added sugars. Everything in them is created from fruits, vegetables, or nuts. We've tried several of the cheesecakes, but my absolute favorite is the tiramisu. It's a small little place, but still has quite a few tables inside. Every time I've gone there there are always people making friends with each other and chatting it up. You can tell the owner makes it a point to create a safe and welcoming environment for everybody. The owner is always there with a smile on and greeting all the customers as well as interacting. I cannot recommend this place enough.

    Lemon bars! Yummy!

    Always so welcoming and friendly. The restaurant is always clean and comfortable. We had the chile beans over basmati rice delicious, and we had the tacos. So good made fresh tortillas and all! Then dessert! Even took some to go! Thank you Chef Naomi and Raw Fresno for fantastic food and welcoming vibes!

    RawFresno is an absolute gem for anyone looking for delicious, wholesome vegan food. Every dish I've tried has been fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. You can really taste the quality and care that goes into their ingredients. The staff is just as amazing--friendly, knowledgeable, and always welcoming. Whether you're vegan or just curious about plant-based eating, RawFresno is a must-visit spot!

    Kale Cesar Salad
    Harut F.

    My wife and I have been to Raw Fresno a few times now and each time we say how simple, delicious, and filling the food is. Absolutely love the market wraps and kale cesar salad. The dressing to the salad is *chef's kiss*...I truly can put that dressing on ANYTHING, that's how much I enjoy it. I have never been disappointed with the food here and it's nice to have "feel good food" that doesn't make me feel guilty or terrible after. Very kind service and quiet ambience in the restaurant as well.

    Raw vegan book!

    Showed up to this raw vegan spot while on the road and it is amazing! I was greeted by Naomi and she was very polite and welcoming. They have (74) options and 5/74 are cooked and the rest is raw vegan. Highly recommend this place!

    Beans and greens

    Naomi is a knowledgeable chef on all things raw and plant based. I enjoy their advice and encouragement to eat healthier. They also have a Pac-Man arcade lol. I highly recommend.

The flavoring was OK not very sweet kind of bland but when you add the green sauce to it, it elevated the flavors and was amazing. I don't think that I would eat any of the dishes without the green sauce as the flavor profile is not very strong. Previously, I did order a pork pot Thai, but again the flavor profile was not that great until the green sauce was added I would go again, just due to convenience and the addiction to the green sauce lol
