Hard to argue with so many 5 star reviews

Definitely worth the visit there. Clearly quality ingredients prepared with care.
The place has a very calm, friendly atmosphere that adds to the experience.
I don’t live in the area, but if I’m back again I’d definitely go there and try some more things.

Amazing paninis,ramen and deserts

Love this place. Went when we were in the area. Friendly service an outside if you have a dog.
The curry ramen was to die for!! The chocolate peanut butter torte was so
Delicious you would never know it was vegan.. I also had. The chixn panini and didn’t really love the chicken part but it was good… just not great in my opinion.

I have gone twice now and can’t wait to go back

Pros: Deserts, Curry ramen, Decent portions

Cons: Wish it was a little less expensive , Parking is hit or miss

Everything is great!

I have been to the restaurant multiple times. Never disappointed. There is a rosemary potato pizza that is really yummy. I have also enjoyed their BLT. Salads are good. All vegan makes it hard to decide!! Note: Doesn’t serve alcohol.

Old Town Fave

I’ve been dining here since their soft opening (and miss the cake display!) I used to come on breaks with a college friend between classes and now only come to treat myself. My go to beverage is the matcha granita as it’s the only thing I can decide on. Between sandwiches, ramen, and breakfast options I really struggle to make choices. Some of my favorites are the Hatch burger, the Continental Breakfast, and the Panini Frittata. I also have a tendency to order key lime cheesecake despite being stuffed. The atmosphere is cool and sophisticated but relaxed and casual. On this particular visit I ordered the Smoked Ham sandwich with a side order of the Soup du Jour, butternut squash. Never a let down for flavor! My previous visit did surprise me as I wanted to have a drink and cake before my hair appointment across the street but they deemed it take out only unless you order an entree, I’m not sure how long that has been in practice or if it will continue but something to be aware of.

Pros: Atomsphere, Tasty, Ample Street Parking

As the title says the food is delicious and healthy. Love going there. They also allow dogs in the patio, which helps. #Veganuary

Nice flavors and atmosphere

Cute place! Pizza is definitely the star. Sandwiches are good but not particularly nuanced in flavors (taste like you could easily make them at home). Still, it's all really good and a nice middle between indulgent and healthy.

Pros: Pizza, Dessert, Vibe

Cons: Potentially a bit overpriced?

Old Town Tustin Gem

This is a fantastic find in Old Town Tustin. We enjoyed the friendly staff and efficient service. The food was the best part. I enjoyed the Panini Frittata, which is vegan scrambled eggs, Roma tomatoes, red onions, heirloom arugula, with a sun-dried tomato aioli. My wife had the Atlantic Sandwich, which had vegan tuna, capers, oregano, red onions, organic mixed greens with a house spread. Both sandwiches came on sourdough bread and a wonderful side of organic mixed greens that included grape tomatoes and candied pecans! I finished off the meal with a tasty affogato for dessert! Fantastic place!

Pros: All vegan.

One of the top all vegan restaurants in OC

I can’t remember exactly what we ordered but we had a mushroom burger and mushroom pizza. The pizza was my favorite with it being so light and flavorful. I normally hate eating crust off of pizza but this was so delicious I actually finished a whole slice! Haha
The burger had an interesting apple sauce sweetness to it that I’ve never had before. I love the ambience of this place as well as the location in old town Tustin. Amazing service too, everyone was super friendly. Only thing is they don’t serve alcohol.

Delicious lunch

I had a lovely lunch on the outdoor patio - I enjoyed the panini caprese. It was fresh and just right for a lite lunch. Even the side salad with candied pecans was yummy.

Pros: 100% vegan, Nice setting - outdoor patio , Friendly staff

Will definitely be back to try other menu items!

Cute location in Old Town Tustin. Loved the courtyard outdoor seating and somewhat industrial setting inside.

Pros: Lots of soy-free vegan options, Not just salads and veggie burgers on the menu, Flavorful dishes. Not bland at all!

Cons: Pizzas only available for dinner

Tustin highlight!

Had the recommended Curry Ramen, which was not just pleasing to the eye but full of flavor. Topped it off with a frozen Matcha drink which was perfect for a hot day and sweet treat. Definitely worth the visit if your in that area😄

Pros: All vegan , Friendly staff, Indoor and outdoor seating

Horrible service

Went there to get dessert with my family. After ordering some cakes with the hostess I asked if we could sit at a table. The hostess told us we couldn’t sit at a table because the tables are for dining only. She told us that we can only take the dessert to go & we couldn’t sit at a table. We were really confused by this because there were a ton of open tables & they weren’t busy at all….

Cons: Bad service, Bland cake
