| - Being vegan and in Las Vegas the choices are minimal when it comes to pizza(other than Sammy's Woodire, there is nothing else really)..when I heard about this place opening last month I finally found time to make the trek to Anthem (where they are located in the strip mall next to Trader Joes,k--mart ,etc)
When I arrived I was a little skeptical, as it appears small, in comparison to most places or chains, but there is signs posted all on the windows such as "eco this" "eco that", "organic",etc,etc - so I figured this sounds right up my alley of what I was hoping it would be
When we arrived there was only one other table with two women having lunch, we placed our order and then suddenly the place got slammed busy, all tables were full, and i seen a couple guys actually turning away because there was no table -and since the place is quite small (only a handful of tables), the lone waitress could not bring the food out as fast as it was ready. Our food(and all other people's)sat for a good five minutes or more before she served it to us ( by the way I am not blaming her ..she was too busy and they were grossly under staffed)
To boot it was 103 degrees and the air conditioner was not working, so she was spending lots of time(unsuccessfully) trying to get it up and running, we were sitting by the thermostat and it read 82 and climbing by the minute.
For Vegans the menu has the option to sub the real cheese out for soy cheese or Daiya cheese.
I chose the soy cheese, while my wife took the Daiya since she loves that stuff, (me i find it a bit tangy normally) so i figured i would try this soy cheese option.
My pizza was very good, i am a big pizza sauce fan, and in my opinion can make or break a pizza-this had good sauce, perhaps too much for the average person, but i usually ask for extra anyways so that was fine for me, the crust was great(they do have a multi grain crust as well which i did no try)and i did eat my whole pizza so that is a good sign there.
They also have as a topping , a gardein chicken which is unheard of to find at a pizza place, but it gives vegans an option besides just mushroom, black olive,and the other staples we are usually stuck with. I did try the gardein chicken, but probably would not the next time as its a bit too close to the real thing for my liking, and when i was not vegan i never did like chicken on my pizza in the first place.
In conclusion the pizza was good, but I do not think I would drive a half hour to get it weekly, however, if you live in the area you may want to check it out for sure
For desert one of the options was a vegan home made brownie which was quite good also, it was two triangle brownies for 4.00 which i thought was a good buy.
They also have some orangic sodas, ice teas, which i did not try personally.
For you non vegans, this review was biased mainly towards vegans so i apologize but i am sure you will like it just fine.
