Years ago, Marci and I went to Watercourse for a friend's birthday. Our friend was vegan, and at…read morethe time, neither one of us was exactly convinced that the vegetarian/vegan lifestyle was for us. So, in anticipation that we might not find much we liked, we actually ate before we left home. That turned out to be completely unnecessary. I remember trying the chicken-style seitan and several other things from the menu and being genuinely surprised by how good everything was. Not "good for vegan food." Just good food. What I remember most is that Watercourse challenged an assumption I walked in with. I didn't leave there suddenly becoming vegan, but I did leave thinking, "Okay, there's something to this." And all these years later, I still remember that meal and find myself wanting to go back and see what they're doing now. Sometimes that's one of the best compliments you can give a restaurant: you changed my mind.

I used to come to this place when I lived in Cap Hill and they had table service, but it's…read moredefinitely changed with a slimmer menu and counter-ordering. We were enthusiastically greeted by Renee and I loved her energy, friendliness, and helpfulness. They do have a great HH until 6pm (and daily specials), which we took advantage of. We each got a Lavender Aviation cocktail (delish!) plus seitan and cauliflower wings, corn ribs, and a Philly sandwich. We LOVED the homemade ranch that came with the wings. My sister was afraid of the sauces they offered for the wings, so I got it on the side, which may have taken away from the wings themselves. We were partial to the cauliflower wings though. The corn ribs are a must and only $5 for HH! Unfortunately, the Philly fell short to me. It tasted like refried bean to me and was crazy messy and fell apart. It's always been a cute little place inside and they have some picnic tables in the shade outside to enjoy the weather without getting sun.

I almost left because I was waiting like 5-7 mins to be greeted and see if they had a table available. I was staying at the connected hotel so the convenience persevered.

I ordered 6 and they were good. First time eating a west coast oyster. I learned I prefer EC ones. The burger was delicious and the service once seated was good. The server was attentive and helpful in pointing out recommendations from the menu. It was a busy lively scene but not over the top.

The carrot cake French toast was really yummy, but I would have preferred it to be a little more cooked. And it came out cold, so that was a little bit of a bummer. But I get the idea, and I think if it wasn't a busy brunch on a Sunday, maybe it would have been a little better. Same with the peppered bacon, it was room temp. Like it had just been sitting there for too long. The Don Draper whiskey drink was good! And then after brunch I got an espresso martini, which was also very good!

We went with a 3-pack of empanadas that came with a can of soda and was $16.99. We picked steak, cheese, and spinach, and chicken caprese.

As a bacon lover, this sandwich felt like home. I was really pleased they opt for a savory tofu as the protein option on this sandwich, as I prefer tofu to tempeh for all reasons. Each food item on their vegetarian and plant-forward menu comes with a side salad dressed in this incredible, light vinaigrette. I dream of that dressing. Top it off with delicious beverage options, and a welcoming and sunlight-drenched interior, ugh! Love this spot. I'll be back soon!

I had the Thai peanut salad, which was incredibly bland. The sauce/dressing was scanty and barely tasted like anything -- I didn't taste peanuts really and definitely no hint of curry/spice like I expected. There was a section of sliced jalapeno but I didn't want to eat raw jalapeno with my salad, I wanted a zestier dressing. The "crispy" tofu was tofu that was completely fried so it had a texture like a crunchy zwiebach cracker/rusk -- I had been envisioning something with some softness and a chewy exterior. My beverage was a lavender Palmer that was a pint jar of lemonade with some lavender tea on top. For those two items it was $27. I have some oral allergy issues and after eating, I had a "burned" mouth feeling like I get from tahini, walnut or eggplant. I don't think any of these ingredients would have been in the salad, but I do not have an issue with peanuts (eat them all the time). I called to ask if the dressing had tahini in it and was told no, but it still concerned me.
