VEGAN and so good! Comfort Food Heaven

Now independently owned with a focus on quality. So good, had the Nashville Hot and the pickles were clearly well thought out as they were crunchy and delicious. Peanut butter parfait was a great dessert.

Pros: Big menu for all cravings , Friendly service , Quick

Cons: None

A Trusted Standard

I don’t get over to Native Foods as often now that this is the last one around. It never disappoints and tons of options!

No more Brussels

I never regret coming here because the staff is super sweet, the food is amazing, and I want to eat the Brussels everyday of my life. They don’t mind making substitutions and the food comes out quickly. Chefs kiss to the team running this place!


This place has been fantastic in the past but now they have updated their menu and it just isn’t the same. They got rid of the best dishes and now the food just doesn’t have the same pizzaz it used to. Brussels are gone which is such a disappointment since it’s hard to find a good vegan version elsewhere. Still a decent option.

Good food

Food was pretty good and decently healthy, especially after being on the road. Sort of fast-food type atmosphere.

chickn!!!!

The first time I had Native Foods was when I first moved to Boulder 4 years ago. I went randomly, didn’t even know it was vegan, and absolutely loved it. I was so sad when they closed they’re location in Boulder considering I only had it once. I had to make a trip to Denver and knew it was the perfect excuse to go and show it to my roommate who I’d know would absolutely love it. loved all the options here from how you want you”chicken” prepared (crispy or grilled) to the multitude of different sauces you can try with your sandwich or wrap. so yum!

Pros: the twister wrap, cajun creamy sauce, the drinks

Very creative, lots of delic. options

The owner and head-chef is a wonderful soul who is always adding new items seasonal items to the menus.

He walks around to make sure all is good with you and to tell you all about the ingredients in what you're eating!

Everything is so delicious and there is huge variety from savory to sweet!

They also have a great reward system!

Explosion of flavors

We ordered delivery and it was very quick. We had the Poppin jalapeño burger and seasoned fries. It was very tasty and so many incredible flavors all mixed together on the soft bun. Delicious. We also ordered. We also ordered a Shawarma bowl and it was packed with flavor as well. We are giving four stars because they didn’t mention there were onions in the Shawarma bowl and it was not mentioned in the description. Onions are the one thing we do not like. Other than that awesome. 

Pros: The many different flavors per dish, The food was warm upon arrival, Delivery was fast

Cons: Shawarma bowl description does not mention onions

delicious chicken wrap!!!

I ordered delivery from Native Foods while in Denver on business and the grilled chicken wrap was SO GREAT! I had to double check that this place was actually vegan it was so much like regular chicken.

Pros: chicken wrap was AWESOME, delivers

Extensive menu and wonderful food

There is plenty to choose from and it's all wonderful. We chose the brussel sprouts for the balsamic viniagrette dressing and the bistro steak sandwich because of the blue cheese dressing. It was all amazing.

Pros: Lots of choice

Please Do NOT Sleep on NF!

NF in CO was recently bought by Michael Olivas who is an incredible human and has worked insanely hard to keep this place up and running. He has had an uphill battle but has made his way out on top.
The food is soooooooo good. My 2 1/2 year old twins couldn’t get enough of the fries and my son said the tenders were “a goiglebajillion out of a googlebajillion”.
My sister nd bio who are not vegan loved it and said they’d come back anytime.
The food was delish, the service top notch.

Taste Great and Decent Prices

Everything we had was super great! Reasonable prices and good portions. It feels “healthy” eating it and the burgers even feel light on the stomach. Parking is fine but if you’re a traveling vegan with a bus like us, go around to the Dunkin parking lot and park there.

The Brussel Sprouts are amazing especially with that lemon juice.

The Spicy Cauliflower Dippers were one of my favorites.

The Bistro Steak Sandwich is another favorite of mine, that blue cheese dressing is amazing!

The Chicken Run Ranch made with the spicy version is a nice light option.

BBQ Brisket Burger was another good one, my husband enjoyed that one more than I did.

We also had the seasoned fries (amazing!) steamed kale, and the lemon dill potato salad which was on the okay side. Mac and cheese felt light and healthy!

The tea was also okay in my opinion

Updated from previous review on 2024-02-19

Pros: Bistro Steak Sandwich , Pricing , Blue Cheese Dressing!

Cons: Parking, Tea is just okay, Order at counter

Favorite Date Night locale

Went here a few years ago and it was meh. Now it's WOW!
Ordered the chicken avocado club with fries, sat down to check my email, and good came out in less than 5 minutes.
Got me worried that it would've tasted like it was nuked to get served that fast, but I was wrong.
Delicious!
And it had bacon, well facon, but it was the best I've had.
Great staff, great food, and great prices.

Pros: Food , Price

Non vegan husband loved it!

This was our first time eating at Native Foods and we really enjoyed it. I had a chicken dill sandwich and my husband was pleasantly surprised by the munchwrap supreme. He said it was the best thing he's had at "one of these places".

I wish there was one close to our house.

Unfortunately they had a sign with a go fund me plea to save the restaurant posted. I hope it doesn't go anywhere.

Amazing

We like to try 100% vegan restaurants and order 5 or 6 things to try so that we can give the place a good chance. Native was a hit!

The jalapeño popper burger was my favorite, and my partner liked the Almost Famous Bowl the most. The only thing we didn't love was the Nashville Hot sandwich, but it was still good.

Our sides were the seasoned fries and a thing of mac n cheese. All too often, restaurants serving "seasoned fries" just have a little black pepper on them, but these were REALLY seasoned. They were delicious. The mac n cheese had a nice flavor, but the cheesy sauce was a little thin. Good overall!

We also got a brownie and the beignets; the brownie was one of the best we've ever had! The beignets tasted a little pre-made, but the balance of dark chocolate sauce with the super sweet powdered sugar was wonderful.

It goes without saying that we WILL be back, and I recommend it to any vegan and non-vegan alike.

Pros: Good food, Plenty of options to choose from, Clean and quiet dine-in experience

Cons: A little expensive
