    Fiesta Style burger with gluten-free bun (closeup).
    Angela L.

    Vegan doesn't mean tasteless. At the counter, we were given a genuinely friendly welcome, and one of the two kind women patiently (and really cheerfully!) answered all our questions. One thing not mentioned in their menu: They have 3 options for the buns in a "hamburger": Wheat bun, 24 grain bread, and a gluten free ($3.50 extra, which is shown in the menu). They have specials written on a board that changes (likely daily). Including the two shown on the board, there were 5 choices for burgers. There were also 4 types of bowls includnig the one on the board. I shared a Punjabi Village Bowl, and a Fiesta Style burger (added a side salad for $4). The burger was absolutely delicious. It was an interesting combination of a crunchy exterior and moist interior, and very flavorful. The Village Bowl was also delicious. My only minor niggle is I wish the Punjabi bowl had a bit more flavor ("spicy cilantro chutney" made me think it might have some heat, but it did not). They have a lovely seating area outside in the back, with very clean picnic style tables, and a very pleasant garden. Something I don't usually comment on, but deserves a mention here. They have two unisex (one person) bathrooms, that were very clean (at least the one I visited was). (FYI: For customers only.) Service was so genuinely kind and happy that it just makes the entire experience so nice. But it doesn't hurt that the food was scrumptious, and with healthy options that are as good as possible to find at any restaurant (and certainly better than most).

    Still excellent service and food. TIP, ask for extra crispy sweet potato fries. Otherwise they are soggy limp.

    Delicious and wholesome food! My whole meal was flavorful and filling! Friendly staff and a great garden seating area!

    We stopped at this delicious vegan restaurant on a road trip. The service was super friendly and efficient. The food was SO tasty!! We loved everything we tried including: - exceptionally authentic potato salad - perfectly toasted, smoky BLTA sandwich - just-the-right-sweetness-level blackberry smoothie - creamy BBQ mac and cheese Portion sizes did not disappoint. We left over full because the food was too good to get a takeout box. Looking forward to the mixed berry pie we got to go. After trying to piece together plant-based meals (hello, french fries) from regular restaurants coming up the coast, a true vegan eatery was hugely welcome! Non-vegans will love it , too! We sat inside at the front table and had a little view of the water. The back garden looked lovely as well.

    I'm in love! Customer service AMAZING! The food you'd never know was vegan. My anti vegan husband loved the fiesta wrap.

    The best pie I've ever had, as a very picky pie eater. I couldn't ask for more. 24h notice if you want a whole one (you will) (:

    Great friendly service, love the açaí bowls ingredients are fresh, options to add but butters and…read moreother fresh nutritious ingredients.

    I am editing my review. I had given a low rating due to a bad experience this past weekend with…read moreordering this food. There were a lot of issues with the order one of the issues was that the salad dressing was literally hot when it arrived. The steak was missing etc. I was contacted by the owner who apologized and sent me a full refund. I will be trying this restaurant again but maybe in person instead of delivery. I feel very grateful that someone listened and gave us a refund. Um. What. First time ordering from here and last time. Why would this be $85?. Paid extra for steak AND for extra serving of steak on all 3 orders and got a small serving of steak on 2 orders and chicken on the other one, definitely not extra. Ok. The dressing was hot. Paid for 3 extra servings of potatos on one order and got what looks to be a regular serving. Worried we might get sick coz if the order is this off ..who knows. Hope not. Wanted to like it!!! The chicken tasted ok. The fruit cups were good except i paid for extra fruit and well .. nothing looks like the photos at all. My family is throwing a fit and won't even eat it. Ugh. I will update my review if someone refunds me for what is missing. I usually only put up positive reviews but um...
