The restaurant is located in a cute area with office building and gorgeous western courtyard that you can take your meal to go and eat out in or on their patio. I am a matcha lover. I get a matcha where ever and whenever I can at breakfast. This hot matcha latte was perfection!!!!! The milk to matcha ratio was on point and was just the right level of warmer to sooth the soul, and not burn your mouth. Add on the beautiful design and you have a lovely way to start any day. I ordered the delux avocado toast which came with a hard boiled egg, bacon and arugula on top. It incredible was fresh tasting. It would have used a bit of black pepper and salt but over all delicious. Whenever I have another work trip out here, I will be making a point to enjoy the matcha latte and avocados toast at Moongate greenhouse!

And they come in an order of 4 that I wasn't prepared for but they were so good that I didn't have difficulty finishing 3, my husband ate the other. Loaded fries were a tasty app- the pico that's on it is very good and fresh. Shared the Date Shake with my husband, but regret not getting my own.

I ordered the hard shell potato tacos (buy one, get one free!) along with the asada nachos, and everything came out to under $30, which is a great deal for fully vegan comfort food. The place was pretty busy today, so service was adequate but understandably a bit stretched. I'm curious to come back on a more typical day to see how the experience compares. That said, the food definitely made an impression, the flavors were on point, and the salsa was easily a 10/10. Overall, a solid spot for affordable vegan Mexican food, especially if you catch their specials. Looking forward to giving it another try soon.

Plenty of outdoor seating with cute table and wall decor. A couple tables inside for seating. My California asada burrito was good. Got to say though, the asada was thinly sliced and tough and the fries dominated the experience. Overall I was left underwhelmed. I did have a bite of the asada crunch someone else ordered that was better so maybe I should have gotten the plain asada burrito instead. I may give it another shot with better luck.

Best Vegan spot! The menu is filled with so many amazing choices. Can't go wrong with anything. We…read morestarted with the shrimp and mushroom appetizer. It was incredible. Tasted like calamari. The seafood noodle dish with vermicelli noodles was filling yet not heavy. It came with a side soup which was delicious. The steak with l black rice and asparagus on side was flavorful because of homemade sauce. Sencha kombucha was a nice sweet and healthy treat with dinner. The rainbow in the sky cake was epic. All natural colors from fruit and gluten free. Tasted light and beautiful presentation. Great upbeat music in background, nice decor and clean restaurant. Mai the owner is so lovely. She shared her story of how this restaurant came to be and overcame an illness just by changing to a Vegan diet. Thuc Anh our waitress was as sweet as can be. Five stars all the way around. Looking forward to next time.

Located in a fairly large plaza that's not too busy so it's pretty easy to find parking but the restaurant can get pretty busy but yet not so noisy where you can have a nice conversation with your friends and family! But onto the food! FOOD Bun Bo Hue (Royal Noodle Soup) My girlfriend is a big Bun Bo Hue fan and absolutely loves it here! Not only that but it seems rather popular. I've yet to try it, maybe I'll try it out the next time I'm there but if you're a Bun Bo Hue fan, you should get yourself the Royal Noodle Soup! Salt & Pepper Tofu One of our go-to appetizers. There's something about it that's so addicting, maybe it's the light crunch, maybe it's the soft warm tofu inside but whatever it is, you'll find yourself possibly ordering another plate if you're feeling hungry! Chicken Ro-Ti with Tomato Rice (Com Ga Ro-Ti) I absolutely love this dish! Incredibly delicious, savory and quite filling actually! Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure I'm always ordering this whenever we visit lol! What can I say, I'm addicted so you should give it a try! Plus it's one of the crowd-favorites! It's always nice to visit Au Lac. Great atmosphere, extremely friendly employees with great customer service that don't overwhelm you by visiting your table every so often. Plenty of seating even when it gets busy. I also enjoy the fact that when it's someone's birthday, they sing you a happy birthday and EVERYONE (even the customers) join in, so it feels very wholesome. My experience every time we visit is always going to leave a smile on my face. Thank you everyone at Au Lac, we can't wait to visit again soon!

Think Urban Plates, but with a sharper focus on lighter eating. The avocado caesar salad with grilled tofu is amazing. The avocado adds a different kind of creaminess to the dressing than a traditional caesar, and the tofu is firm and substantial. The produce quality is noticeably good across the board. My boyfriend had the Thai Wrap and enjoyed it. The vegan options here are solid and varied. Service is reasonable, slower than fast food, but nothing that tests you. The price is on the higher end for quick healthy eats, but the quality backs it up. If you're in the area and want a lunch that actually feels light, Flower Child is worth the stop.

It is a large restaurant that is beautifully decorated. You order at the front counter, and they bring you your food. We all ordered bowls. I had the Yaki Soba bowl with chicken. It was a delicious combination of so many flavors and textures. It was very tasty. My party ordered the Mother Earth bowl and the chicken enchilada bowl. Everyone ate every bite of their food.

Was kind of quiet on the Wednesday night I was there but very cute and casual which was exactly what I was looking for after a long day at work.
