| - Nom nom nom!!!!!!!!!!
I've been here several times and can't believe I have never written a review on this place. It's tucked away in a corner of a strip mall, very odd location and kinda hard to get to, but once you find this gem, oooooo boy! I've been to their east location and I like the west one much better.
Great fresh everything. Definitely splurge and get a juice and an appetizer if you can. I want to try everything on this menu someday. In previous visits, I've had the Gimme the Beet Cheese Burger and it was great. The "fries" are literally wedges of avocado and the ketchup that is served with it is not so great. I have also tried the purple burrito and the lasagna, both good but not my favs. I've never tried their "sushi" but I will be back.
For this visit, my boyfriend and I decided to stop in for lunch. We've totally forgotten about this place and I am really glad we came in. We started with the Yummus Hummus - Hummus, sliced tomato, & hemp seeds, absolutely DELICIOUS!! So flavorful, great texture, can't really describe it. Just TRY IT!!! Not your average hummus, but better. Served with living bread (sort of a flax seed cracker) which I adore, and fresh slices of carrots and cucumbers. Mmmmm.
Next we got our juices, my boyfriend ordered a super juice "Liver Mover" (hahaha what a great name) Beet, Carrot, Cucumber, Coconut Water & Flesh. I tried it and it's very tasty, slight sweetness but not too much, probably sweet from the beet.
I ordered the #12 Body Cleanser - Carrot, Cucumber, Beet, Apple - mmm mmm mmm! Very refreshing and perfectly fresh. We were also served some water with lemon.
The boyfriend ordered a half order of the kale salad and it is enormous! So fresh. Organic kale tossed with red bell peppers, onions, cucumbers, & avocado. Served with buckwheat bread. You could smell how fresh it was when the waitress put it on the table. I got to try a bit and it was yummy.
I ordered a half Veggie Wrap - Pesto, "almond cheese", tomato, avocado, sprouts, onions, cucumbers, & carrots wrapped in collard greens. It was served with house slaw which was a very tasty chopped beet salad. AHHH-MAZING. I would hate to see what a full order was, I had plenty of food and it was oh so good. It is definitely the "almond cheese" that makes this so good. I love that stuff, it sort of reminds me of a chunky white cheese spread. I have ordered it on the side with flax crackers in the past and took it home to devour. It's really a good snack...trust me.
I don't know what the negative reviews were all about, I can't find a thing wrong with our experience today. The waitress was also super friendly. This is the first time I have had a waitress take my order at the table - I usually just order at the counter.
If you like interesting and healthy, clean food, definitely check this place out with an open mind. I really felt ... GOOD...after eating this food. Sure, the food is pricey, but where else are you going to get this quality and taste anywhere else in the Valley?
This place also sells raw and vegan books, and some interesting holistic things like himalayan salt lamps and crystals. It's a very casual, quiet place, with very neat paintings on the walls which are all painted by a local artist and are for sale.
Even if you aren't a vegetarian/vegan/raw food person (my boyfriend is definitely not) you will find something here. Give it a shot, it's good for you! I am including three pictures of our meal so you can see the amazing food for yourself. A+++
