Get your Buddha on!
100% vegetarian/vegan, all organic menu with friendly, happy people serving you...what more do you want?
Mandala is a cute little restaurant in the Scottsdale Arts District. It has a nice variety of menu items ranging from raw foods, macrobiotic, low-cal and high-energy options. Granted I just came here after yoga class so my chi was already happy but the food really was tasty.
I had the South sandwich that has a black bean and rice veggie patty with vegan mayo, tomato and lettuce. A small and yummy scoop of tabbouleh-style quinoa salad accompanied my order. To keep cool in heat, I opted for a sweet but tart hibiscus ice tea (caffeine free).
Mandala has both indoor and outdoor dining options and plenty of parking.
It's a nice place to go out to eat and have a healthy meal that does a body (and spirit) good.
