Excellent

I ordered the Big Wac with fries and came back the next day and got it again it was so good. Indistinguishable from the actual Big Mac, as far as I can remember. INCREDIBLE.

Pros: Big Wac, Cool atmosphere

Cons: Busy

You have to know what to order!

Order the Big Wac and buffalo wings!! Best vegan wings I've ever had. You'll want to drink the sauce. Omg. SO GOOD.

Avoid the artichoke dip. And in my opinion most of the bowls are bland.

Don't forget to go to Nami next door!

Mean Green Vegan Machine

What we ordered: Karma Curry, samosas, fried brussels sprouts, Dagobah, animal fries, drinks.

What I liked: curry, dagobah, fries, and brussels

Flavor was great, portions were even better. Nothing was too oily or over done.

The dressing on that dagobah was outstanding.

Only thing I would change would be the onions on the animal fries. Onions did not taste fresh and were chopped small. They would have been completely insignificant if it wasn't for the sauce.

Pros: Nice portions, Good Flavor

Best Vegan in Phoenix

Emphasis on comfort food, "mock" meats, done very well. It's great to know it's all vegan, no worries about meat or cheese getting added accidentally. First place I go to when visiting Phoenix.

Pros: taste, price, all vegan

Cons: not the healthiest stuff

my favorite

This is by far my favorite vegan restaurant anywhere in the country that I've visited so far. I always eat here at least a couple times whenever I'm in Phoenix and everything is great!

Great place and delicious food

A lot of variety on the menu and there are really no bad decisions possible. The wings, crab puffs and chili fries are all fantastic starters. The sandwiches and bowls will for sure satisfy even a picky palate.

Great place.

The food is fabulous. The menu has lots of options. Service is very good and quite friendly. The only drawback is the parking. It is worth the hassle though.

Pros: Choices

Cons: Parking

Very tasty!

She had the "Singapore orange" bowl with the mock chicken, and I had the "Peanut chicken" bowl, but made into a burrito for just an extra buck. Both were terrific. Very flavorful with a spicy bite, but not too hot. Also a wide variety of specially made drinks, which were also very good. A very filling meal for a very reasonable price. A definite winner!

absolutely amazing

This place is great. My family and I were in Phoenix for the week and we must have eaten at Green at least 4 times. Keep in mind, the rest of my family is full of hard-core meat eaters, and yet they fell in love with this vegan food. I had the sesame dragon rice bowl and it was amazing. The flavoring was perfect. We also had the vegan chili which was out of this world.

Pros: excellent food, great flavor, Friendly Staff

Incredible!

I had the "Big Wac" and it was one of the best things I've ever eaten (right up there with my dessert from Nami)! SO good. Tastes so similar to a Big Mac... But even better! If you're going for the first time, try that!

A+++

One of the first places that my husband and I tried when we first moved here. It's hard to describe how thankful one could be to find a restaurant where I can have almost everything on the menu. Allergy free options as well as some of the best flavors in town. Always outstanding customer service and a very friendly atmosphere. I wish I could live out back and eat here daily. Thank you Green

Pros: Allergy Free Options, Outstanding Customer Service, Huge menu, full of options

Excellent vegan fare!

Really good first impression. I ordered the "Big Dipper " special and it was excellent, with a great rustic bun, really tender thin-sliced seitan, good quality cheeze (I think Chao), and onion rings on top! The only thing slightly off was the au jus, but that's really hard to do vegan so I give them a pass. Definitely stop here if in Phoenix.

Pros: All vegan, Big Dipper is excellent, Order at the counter

Cons: Au jus needs work

not safe for celiacs

the whole menu is vegan, and there are some amazing items... what i tasted (buffalo wings, artichoke dip, jerk tofu salad) were all delicious, and only slightly overpriced, but i found out halfway through my meal that everything i'd ordered off the glutenfree menu had been fried in dirty (contaminated) oil, even though there was no indication on the menu that these items were deep fried. the server/cashier was really apathetic when i brought it to her attention. since this place has a dedicated menu and they answered all my pre-order questions "correctly," i thought this place would be worth the risk. i was wrong. it's been over a week, and i'm still VERY sick. this place is fine for healthy able bodied vegans, but if you have celiac or food allergies, BEWARE. they have no idea what they're doing, despite that beautifully printed gf menu and knowing how to answer all your questions.

my cow rating is only for the unlimited drink refills on some interesting beverages, like limeade and iced green tea. as far as food and service goes, i wish i could give negative cows.

OMG. Big Whack

I haven't had a Bug Mac in over ten years, but this Bug Whack was ten times better and no animals were harmed in its making.
I am coming here every time I am in Phoenix and may make special trips to Phoenix just for this place

Pros: incredible food

Cons: noisy

Deelish!

Its a very small place and hard to squeeze thru the driveway in a big vehicle, but please dont that deter you. The food was amazing! The best burger I have had in a very long time! I highly recommend the big-Wak !!

Fun, airy, tasty spot

In a casual garage-like space with a handful of outdoor tables and ~20 indoor tables, Green has a food and drink menu with lots of choices. From kombucha to beer, salads to stir-frys to burgers and sandwiches, there's a variety from light and healthy to comfort and junk food. They also have a kids' menu.

All the dishes were abundant, with the salads and bowl choices coming in large bowls, and the sandwiches with fries/side. I struggled to save room for dessert! Nothing that I tried stood out as superb; all the dishes were very good. The staff is friendly and the place has a fun and funky vibe.

Same style interior and menu as the other location in Tempe (this one has Nami ice cream, bakery and cafe across the parking lot rather than in the same building).

Pros: Both healthy and junk food choices, Lofty, fun interior with outdoor seating

Cons: Small parking lot

Great vegan choice in Phoenix

Green New American offers a welcome vegan menu. I had the "Argentine" Po-boy. The sandwich was substantial and delicious. The restaurant is comfortably casual. Parking is limited the lot that surrounds the restaurant if the restaurant is busy.

Twice nice

This place had been hyped up by some of our other die hard vegan friends. We weren't disappointed. The place was packed when we arrived but I understand why.
The food, seriously phenomenal. Its hard to say greasy stand by's could ever be this good. This place is. It goes above and beyond amazing. We loved this place so much we went back the next day. Everything we ate (a family of three) were so good. Also its right next door to Nami's so dessert was as easy as walking 20 ft outside to the next building.

GO HERE!!!!!!

Pros: Chickn parm!, Super nice and friendly staff, The child loved it

Cons: Quite busy, Not in Edmonton

just awesome

I wouldn't call a lot of the menu items healthy (though there are plenty of healthy options) but the place is full of vegan comfort food and that is what I was in the mood for while travelling. Just amazing. I'm sad I don't live here

Pros: comfort food vegans often don't get, fair prices , friendly staff

Cons: it can be challenging to force yourself to order h

All vegan, some gluten free

We had dinner here this evening and enjoyed our food very much. We had an artichoke dip for an appetizer, I had a vegetable and rice bowl for my entrée. My sister had a veggie burger and fries. Everything was good and there seemed to be something for everyone. I wish we had saved room for desert. I did notice that they had a root beer float on the menu that I wish I would have had.

The Absolute BEST

OMG........this is the best lunch spot I have ever found!!!! And who would think Phoenix would be the place to have the ultimate cafe.......I ordered their Barbeque Chicken Sandwich. It came with sauteed peppers and onion. The faux chicken was almost indistinguishable from real chicken and the barbeque sauce was excellent! My sandwich came with a Tahitian Cole Slaw. I'm not a big cole slaw fan, but this was really good--a bit of nutty flavor. My husband had Kung Pao Chicken and his was equally good. It was a huge bowl of fresh veggies in spicy Kung Pao sauce and he chose the faux chicken added to his meal. He couldn't finish the plate, but wanted to so we had some leftovers! I had read reveiws online about their crab won tons, so we got an order to go. I wish I would have purchased 5 orders to go!!! I haven't had anything that tasted like seafood since I became vegan five years ago. These actually tasted just like crab won tons!!! What a treat!!!!!!!!!! I only wish we had somewhere like this in the Sacramento area. It beats anywhere I have eaten.

Pros: Best food ever!!!!, Friendly staff, Great vibe

Cons: It's nowhere near where I live!!!

Legendary!

This place is unbelievable!
We had only a couple days in town so made sure we came both days and it didn't disappoint!

They've got an awesome menu, with great strong flavours and interesting food.... how anyone can be disappointed here is beyond me!
Having travelled a fair bit and seen a fair few Veggie/vegan spots over the past few years, I really think this place raises the bar in eating out 'vegan style' !

Anyway- my partner had their big mac (his favourite burger in the States) and I tried two of the bowl options (where you pick a sauce, mock meat etc). Both were awesome- the second day the veg was a tad raw for my liking, but the place was SO busy I can forgive this no biggie! (It's probably healthier for me anyway!).
We also tried their popular starter/side dish- it was some kind of crab cake? Anyway they were awesome, totally different to anything we've been offered in other vegan spots.

And their re-fill juices are really nice too, well worth grabbing one with your food.

Also love that Nami is next door- that is also unreal!

Awesome

This place is awesome; best in Phoenix I've been to so far. I had the BBBQ burger and it was great; a bit messy, but what BBQ burger isn't? The crab puffs were really delicious as well. I got their hummus and egg rolls to go for lunch the next day; the hummus was great and the egg rolls were good even reheated. This place was so tasty, I came back one night after dinner somewhere else just to get a to go meal for lunch the day after!
And as an added bonus, Nami is right next door for your dessert needs and wants.

Pros: Delicious, Good Portions, Friendly

Awesome!

The food here is great, and the service is good! I've gotten a few of their bowls with tofu. I haven't tried any of the faux meats, but my mom has. She really liked them! I plan on coming back!
