| - I have been wanting to go to Rawlicious ever since their sign first went up. Can you believe that was 5 years ago?! Yes, it took that long, well because i like meat in my meals and it's not somewhere i can take my kids because my oldest has a nut allergy. It is so close to where i live and i love trying out new restaurants in my area. I am not vegan nor am i a vegetarian, i love meat, but I also enjoy days where meals are meat-less. I read a lot of great reviews and i have never been to a vegan restaurant, so i wanted to try it out. I made a lunch date with my niece who is vegan. I had no expectations about having a perfect vegan meal or even a horrible one. We arrived just before 12, the only ones there. Upon walking in, I Immediately i fell in love with the warm cozy decor & seating. Rustic, very inviting and set up in a way that i knew that my time there wasn't going to be short. There were 2 women in the kitchen busy prepping. As soon as we walked in, they made a point of stopping, saying hello and welcoming us in to choose a table wherever we wanted to sit. We started off with smoothies. I had the Creamsicle (Nutmilk, banana, avocado, orange, vanilla, agave) OMG - it was so good, if not for the $8.50 price, i would've grabbed a 2nd or maybe even a 3rd lol! But, i wanted to leave room for my apps & entree. For my appetizer i ordered the sweet potato fritters ($7.50). It comes with a delish chiptole mayo. I liked the fritters, but i didn't love them, simply because they were hard and very dry. The chipotle mayo helped, but the fritters crumbled apart in so many small pieces each time i took a bite. By the time we had finished our apps, i noticed that the restaurant had filled up and several people had walked in to order take out (smoothies and/or food). As busy as it was, our server was excellent and checked on us a few times to see how everything was and asked it we wanted to order anything else.
For my main, i had a really hard time deciding because everything sounded so good! I finally decided on the Pad Thai ($15). Our server asked me if i was a fan of spicy or mild and offered to put the hot sauce on the side. Not a traditional Pad Thai by any means, but if i was ever going to have a vegan pad thai - Rawlcious would be THE place to have it! Zucchini & kelp noodles, shredded romaine lettuce, carrots & bell peppers with a tangy Thai sauce garnished with green onions & crumbled cashews (i did add the hot sauce and it gave the meal a perfect little kick!) After the smoothie, appetizer & entree, i wasn't hungry at all - vegan food done right! i can't wait to go back to try out more of their menu.
