Youll have to be aware that its a prix fix menu so you get what theyre serving and only can choose a medium or large portion. You can buy dessert if you want but its not included in the price of the main meal. The drinks offered are barley tea and water, or you can buy a kambuchaI wish there were more categories for the stars because I didnt like the experience, and felt it was overpriced, but it was tasty enough, so the rating youd give depends on what youre looking for

I took my mom here for lunch. We loved it! The menu is basically whatever the chef decides, 2x/day. But there were a variety of well prepared, delicious vegan and gluten free foods included. I had the best lentil soup ever, and the perfectly prepared black beans with ginger and onions were mouthwatering. Even though mom didnt care for the creamy collard greens with kale (I liked it just fine), she had plenty to eat. Tea or water is included, and we shared the key lime pie for dessert- yummy!

Delicious healthy food. I can feel the nutrients pouring into me with every bite. My current job site is across the street, if it were just a little cheaper I’d eat here every day. Maybe it won’t be the case next time, but some of the dishes were a tad too salty. Really great though I’m glad I found it.

Very tasty vegetarian food. It makes me feel healthy but also tastes really good. All the different veggies had good flavor and the lentil soup was good too. Would definitely come back again since I hear they switch up some of the vegetables each time. I also really like how theres no choice of what to order, just medium or full. I dont like to make decisions so thats perfect. The (vegan?) pie is good if you like coconut flavor.

1) After a meal here, you will walk out feeling energized and powerful 2) The plate for the day comes in two sizes, medium or full size. The simplicity of this system is great because you just get what the chef is creating! 3) The food is really really good. Genuinely one of the best vegetarian restaurants I’ve ever been too!

If you have any kind of taste buds, run, dont walk to eat here. Vegan or not, youll love this. I got it to go but part of me wishes I had stayed to eat as they have a nice variety of spices and sauces at eat table to add to your food, but mine didnt actually need anything added. It was amazing, perfectly seasoned, salted and, cooked to perfection. Each item on my plate had its own distinct flavors that worked well with everything else on the plate. Would give 10 stars if I could. Ive been vegan a while now and it was my first time there. Very very impressed!

Very different Vegan restaurant with excellent food. For the main dish they only have the Moderate or Full options. The dish comes with lentil soup, rice, 2 types of salad, roasted veggies and beans curry. The we had one Moderate and one Full sizes which was plentiful. The food was very tasty and is not heavy on the stomach.

Very friendly, super delicious and everything organic and vegan! I like the concept of the menu with the soup included, so no long time needed to decide. They were really helpful to adjust based on dietary restrictions. Dont miss the pies!

I found the food very salty. I tried it several times, but still too salty. I used to go to their other restaurant on San Pablo Ave. before it closed during the pandemic, and I liked it a lot better.

Organic, fresh, healthy, tasty. Pretty quick service too since they only offer one meal. You choose large or moderate. For the more strict diet, you can also get a basic meal without the seasoning.
