Magnificent

by Promila at Citysearch

I've tried a number of items from the menu but my favorites are Veggie-Mighty-Vita Burger, Twister Wrap, and Saigon Wrap. The portobello are amazing, as well as the sausage burger. The people working were all really, really friendly and attentive, which added to the food-high I experienced as I gorged on my food. This is a wonderful place to hang out with friends and family members.

Healthy........Tasty............and so much more

by touche386 at Citysearch

Native Foods is one of my favorite places to grab lunch. Although, just to warn you, it takes a while to get your food. But this is because everything is freshly prepared. I have had a variety of things on the menu and loved the food so much that i bought the cookbook. The Bali Surf Burger is my favorite, i add the native "cheese" and usually substitute the coleslaw (which isnt that great) for brown rice or fries. Their pizzas a really good and are definitely hearty and i absolutely love the nachos. My boyfriend said that the peanut butter parfait is really good, and i always order an lemon izze with my meal. OH.....and dont let me forget the Ensalada Azteca.....................AMAZING. I dont really think you can go wrong at this place. Just remember that the food is VEGAN so if you are big on real meat then you might not feel the seitan or tempeh. I suggest staying open minded and dont be stuck on the fact that the food is meatless.

• Pros: The WHOLE menu....especially the Nachos, animal and environment friendly food and people
• Cons: takes a while to get food (but well worth the wait)

Best Vegan Food in Orange County...

by SuperDave at Citysearch

Now, I'm spoiled coming from Chicago there were plenty of vegan options---personally, Karen's Kitchen is great, an upscale restuarant, with nice atmosphere, and all vegan....

alas.

I was excited to find a vegan restaurant out here and i end up going there whenever I'm in a rush. It's great, delicious, handy, and for a vegan who gets tired of cooking all the time, a nice break.

major kudos.

For People That Eat Meat ...

by cocotheslug at Citysearch

If you are going to try this place don't do what I did. I ordered a salad, I mean vegans should be able to make a good salad, right? Wrong. I was not impressed but when I went back the second time and had chili fries followed by soy crumble tacos ... I was floored ... it was soo good and it tasted just like meat!

So for the meat eaters ... don't be afraid to try the fake stuff ... you will be shocked!

good vegan food

by 44paws at Citysearch

this is a great restaurant though this one is not as consistent as the Palm Springs restaurant.

lots of great vegan choices

the place could be kept a little cleaner and more organized but if you are a vegan this is a place to go to on a regular basis

• Pros: big selection of vegan foods
• Cons: could be cleaner and more consistent

Good for vegans and non-vegans alike

by uscrocks at Citysearch

This place has awesome food every time I go. I am a total carnivore with a bunch of vegan friends, and I was a bit skeptical at first. But they have definitely changed my mind! Try the fries with ranch, the Palms wrap (something with palm in the title, I can't remember the exact name), the Ensalada Azteca (the mango dressing is to die for), the Soba dan dan, and the cheesecake. I'm sure everything else is good too. Also, great service is a plus.

• Pros: Great food, great service, airy atmosphere

Would fool even the biggest meat lover!

by bifftannen77 at Citysearch

I LOVE this place! The staff is very friendly and always ready to recommend something yummy. While the fact that it is a vegan restaurant might intimidate many, I have taken many non-vegetarians/vegans and they have all loved it!! Be sure to try the Jerk Burger, with Native Cheese and Grilled Onions. It is addictive! Their chai tea is also very delicious!
