| - A friend of mine and I decided to catch up at Violette's Vegan, and we had such a wonderful time.
We shared a side of the mac n' cheeze and each had different sandwiches for our meals, and we were both very pleased. I would easily satisfy my skeptical vegan friends with that mac n' cheeze for sure. They didn't bat an eye when I wanted to drink out of my own glass (because in the summer heat, I take my glass jar with me everywhere to avoid plastic melting into my cups and such), and they even refilled it for me (which probably doesn't sound that impressive, but lots of restaurants won't do it--so I rarely even ask--because it's considered uncool to bring in your own drink, not that my water cup is a different price from their water cup).
What's more, they didn't seem at all bothered that we hung out there for quite a while, which is vital to me in a restaurant because many of my friends are from Europe, where you would never be rushed out of a cafe. Lunch is SUPPOSED to take two hours!
But really, the vibe was amazing. Not only did we have a super satisfying lunch, but we were able to really enjoy our time there. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. I also noticed that the bathroom was super chic, and the decor around the cafe was energetically on point. I read some of the hangings and found a couple quote gems from the Dalai Lama, which was awesome.
I will definitely head back to try their fresh juices and raw menu now that I'm attempting a transition to 80/10/10 raw vegan. I'm super psyched that they even had the options.
***NOTE: They might be good for breakfast, brunch, late night, and dessert, but I have no experience with this, so I didn't mark those boxes.
