| - A salad done right, can be the best thing ever. This place does their salads right. They are so filling and full of flavour, they make you feel energized, and give you that radiant, healthy glow. I always get a salad, but I've gotten a sandwich once which was just alright. I've never tried anything else on the menu because the salad is just so good. The baked goods are quite good from the many free samples I've had and 1-2 cupcakes I've bought but I'm not much of a sweet tooth so I don't normally buy them.
When you order a salad you choose your greens (baby mixed greens, kale, and possible arugula/spinach). I think you can mix them as well. I always get simple mixed greens, and I get the BBQ tofu which you pay extra for as well. It's the best tasting tofu I have ever tried, I even ask for extra sometimes. Then you can choose 6 toppings. I usually get kimchi, the very finely shredded carrot mixed with something else (not to be confused with the julienned carrots), avocado, beets, marinated mushrooms and cucumber. Then you choose nuts (I just get the mixed nuts), and a dressing (I always get the carrot sesame which is so delicious and really makes the salad).
The portion is huge, very filling, and you can definitely share it with someone. If it's just myself, I usually save some for later. I believe you can get half portions as well which is a good option. It's about 12$ for the full sized salad.
The atmosphere is really nice, has high ceilings, hard-wood floors, big windows, a lot of light, hanging ferns, and definitely has a yoga studio vibe. it is in the Octopus Garden holistic health centre and yoga studio, so there are lots of yoga-type people coming in and out of class. Sometimes it seems a little exclusive, but I'm too busy enjoying my salad and nice atmosphere to really care that much.
You can also get ready made juice which was made that day or the day before, which is usually quite good, but pricy and there are usually only 2 options to choose from. If you want a fresh made juice with the ingredients of your choice, I would suggest first buying your juice at the Sunshine juice bar/health food store across the street. It's also pricey, but organic and you have more choice, and it's delicious every time. Then bring your juice to Urban Herbivore and drink it with your salad.
This is a casual, take out atmosphere, and a good place for quick solo lunches on the go. You can also get it to go in a nice box.
