| - This was the first time trying a restaurant that replicates the taste of meat and I was impressed.
We arrived exactly when they opened for dinner-5.30pm, however our intention was to get there a bit later but thank god we didn't because by 6pm there was a huge line-up at the door.
We started off with the wings and chose the barbeque sauce to go with it. The wings arrived within 5 minutes. They really got the texture of the "wings" on point, it was pretty unbelievable. For mains, I went for the burger, which was made from tempeh and mushrooms and topped with barbeque sauce and caramelized onions, with a side salad. My friend chose the reubenator with fries. This took around 10-15 minutes to make, which was not bad.
The serving size was the right amount, and not as big as I thought it would be. My burger was delicious but extremely messy, where you have to eat with with a fork and knife if you don't want the patty to spill all over. The burger patty tasted like a typical vegetable-based one you would get anywhere...nothing special and I have had better. My only compalint was the texture, where it was just too soft and messy...but still tasty. However, my friend was crazy about his reuben sandwich and said that it tasted like actual corned beef.
The prices were slightly steep but the taste, service and ambiance made up for it. The dessert options looked amazing, but we were quite full to get any.
As we were paying I heard the server telling a customer in line that the wait should be one hour or more! So I definitely recommend going early or when you aren't starving.
All in all, Mythology is a great vegan restaurant and one that I will visit again so that I can then try the NY steak, which looked crazy good!
