Vegan cheese for nachos, delicious açaí bowls. I personally don’t love the flavors in the tempeh and tofu here but it’s awesome they have it.

Fresh, flavorful ingredients - Edit
The Potato Herb Soup was so flavorful, with chickpeas, mushrooms and other vegetables. It warmed me up on a chilly night. I enjoyed it with the Steamed Vegetables with brown rice plate. The carrots, potatoes and broccoli tasted fresh and delicious without any cheese or sauces. I’m thrilled I can get this oil-free dish there. Lastly, the Tempeh Burger was thick and tasty, better than any processed and high fat Beyond or Impossible Burger out there.
Read morePros: Fresh ingredients , Plenty of vegan options , Friendly service

Favorite cafe in Tahoe - Edit
So many vegan options and absolutely delicious food! I had the Tempeh Burger with vegan cheese and it was one of the best veggie burgers I’ve had. There are so many choices here. I recommend trying it first thing when you arrive in Tahoe, because no other place will have such quality food and as many vegan options. There are great choices from burgers to sandwiches to burritos, all of them plant-based if you sub with vegan cheese.

Get a Bowl after Boardin' - Edit
After a tiring day of snowboarding on the mountain their Cadillac Bowl - made vegan - totally hit the spot! They understand vegan and can make a lot of their dishes to accommodate. A great way to start the day, too, with fresh juices, wheat grass and other vegan fuel for a day on the mountain. The crew was cool, too. If it was walking distance to our hotel, i would have eaten here more often!

Good food, lots of options rude employees - Edit
Really yummy food, lots of vegetarian and vegan options but after an experience where I locked my keys (and jacket in my car when it was 30 degrees outside) and they would not let me use a phone or wifi I won’t be going back. I had to walk to a coffee shop to find wifi and help. The people at the coffee shop were super kind and responded like normal humans helping someone out when they are in distress. Super sad about this experience there at natural cafe.

Worth going - Edit
Sprouts is a cool place with some good vegan options. I wish they had a separate menu though. The tempeh burro was good but not amazing. The peach smoothies was great. Glad the soup of the day is always vegan. Probably 3.5 stars but I couldn’t do 4

Great vegan options - Edit
Always the easiest place to stop for me - being vegan and gluten free. They have bowls and salads, tofu, tempeh, vegan cheese, lots of smoothies, plant based mylks, etc. Also their soups are always vegan. Not to mention overall friendly service. And everything I've ever eaten there has always been really tasty, and generous portions.

Really yummy! - Edit
The majority of this menu is vegetarian and a lot of the stuff is easily veganizable. They have vegan milk for coffee drinks and you can also sub vegan cheese on anything. I highly recommend this place if you’re in the area… I wish we had discovered it earlier so I could’ve come back for lunch

Delicious vegan option. - Edit
I had a tempeh burger and was able to substitute Monterey for vegan cheeze. Although the burger buns aren't vegan so they made it on a bagel. Delicious overall! My partner got vegetarian nachos and they said that could be made vegan for the future! Will go back for those vegan nachos.

Great Menu and Location - Edit
We had the classic burrito and the baked tofu bowl and both were excellent. Great use of basil, green onion, tahini, jalapeño, and other herbs to give extra flavor to the meals. Friendly, clean service modifications for covid and outdoor eating space. Also located near the beach so takeout makes for a nice walk and place to eat.
Read morePros: Big menu, Lots of vegetarian friendly items, Smoothie menu looked delicious!

Good smoothie, granola bowls - Edit
We did an easy takeout breakfast and due to covid they were taking and delivering orders through a window. We got a Mean Green Smoothie with spirulina and a granola bowl. Smoothie was good but the protein powder they used had an artificial sweetener that was really sweet, and granola was good and they had a few plantbased milk options (soy, oat, almond). Didn’t try the lunch food but saw lots of bowls, sandwiches, and wraps that looked delicious.
Read morePros: Good amount of vegan options, Fast service

Soooo good!! - Edit
The line was long but that gave me time to decide from the many options they had. They had an option for vegan cheese! I had a burrito that came with chips. It was reasonably priced too, although I'm sure if you are into juices or smoothies, that jacks up the price quickly. Great place.
Read morePros: Lots of filling food options, not just salads.
Cons: Soup wasn't ready until noon.

Tasty but a bit repetitive. - Edit
I've lived in the area for fifteen years and been here dozens of times. Back when I was vegetarian, I loved this place. However, as I've gone vegan and my tastes have evolved, I've started to notice that a lot of the dishes are just the same ingredients re-organized in different presentations. The food will fill you up, but they aren't exactly into using a wide variety of vegetables, herbs, or unusual grains to make it a more healthful meal.
Read moreOne major pet-peeve. They charge extra for vegan substitutions. Want vegan cheeze instead of cow secretions? Sure, that's $2 extra. Want tempeh instead of flesh? Pay for it. Want hummus instead of cheese and meat? That's extra too.
Pros: Lots of vegan and veganizable options, Reasonable prices (unless you substitute/ add-on), Good juices, smoothies and coffee
Cons: Being vegan costs extra, Lots of the same ingredients in different dishes, They serve animals & their secretions
