Good, not great - Edit
I’ve been here a few times and I’m not sure it’s worth the price. Gets a lot of hype, but I haven’t been thrilled by the dishes I’ve had the 3 times I’ve been there.

Very satisfied - Edit
I ordered the raw nachos which had a taco-like seasoning for the "meat" and triangle shaped chips also made out of similar stuff as the meat. I got a little tired of the consistency after a while but that's just because I was so full. My friend ordered the mac and cheese which had a red bell pepper flavor in the sauce, if you like that, super delicious.

Warm, welcoming, delicious - Edit
My spouse, daughter, and I enjoyed a terrific dinner. There was a short wait but we were given a little spot in the back of the restaurant to start sharing an excellent Willamette Pinot. We had several small plates (cauliflower, Mac & cheese, and the cheese plate...all very good), the beet and apple salad, and then entrees. The green bowl needs a note that it is quite spicy but everything else was perfect. We’ll be back on our next visit to Portland.
Read morePros: Many superb menu options, Excellent service, Warm atmosphere, vibrant but not too noisy
Cons: None, we left thoroughly happy

Delicious ! - Edit
Enjoyed a 3 course dinner with 3 non vegans who could not stop raving about how good the food was. This is a great choice when your friends let you pick the restaurant and you want to show them how delicious plant based eating can be!

Consistently Good - Edit
I have eaten here for breakfast and lunch several times during recent visits to Portland and have been happy each time. The service is good, the food tasty and fresh, and the atmosphere very nice. My only frustration is that I have not been able to get a vegan/gluten-free brownie that was as good as the one that I got on my first visit here. It is my understanding that there has been some turnover on the baking side of things. I would recommend this restaurant for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

Yummy juice n smoothie - Edit
I loved the healthy delicious options for juices and smoothies, although the smoothie bowl was freezing and hurt my sensitive teeth a bit. My husband had the biscuit sandwich which he enjoyed. They only serve drip coffee though, which was a little disappointing. The service was friendly and attentive.

great lunch spot - Edit
Great quiet lunch spot! I am sure it is just later in the day but seems like a great spot for conversations over delicious food. Was there for an early lunch and had a super helpful waitress that recommended that tacos! Delish!

It’s so nice to have meal choices - Edit
I was so pleased to see that I had several meal options being a Gluten-Free Vegan. The meals were yummy, but too salty. Next time I will ask them to go light on the salting. My mother’s dish was also very salty, and we ordered different meals. The preparation on the soy curls was a favorite of mine.
Read morePros: several meal choices., the food was fresh and wonderfully healthy., loved the preparation on the soy curls.
Cons: Too salty., order the tea well ahead of time, 8 min wait after, parking can be challenging.
