Healthy fast food - Edit
Healthy fast food, mildly seasoned. Get extra pickles and sauce for any item! Food is fresh and healthy for sure. Lacking in seasoning, in my opinion. I fix this w extra pickles and extra sauce on the side. Example- large potato salad? Get a whole pickle to compliment it.
Read moreThey also have smoothies and vegetable juice. I recommend something fruity as they aren't playing w their vegetable juice.
Tried the mini cookie and it was enjoyable.
I give every vegan restaurant 5 stars cuz honestly, Im grateful.
I've had super nut burger, mushroom millet (the only seasoned item. too mushroomy imo), mini cookie, vegetable juice, potato salad

Really incredible - Edit
Food here is incredibly good! Very affordable too! Truly impressed and have almost nothing but positive things to say.

Want to try again - Edit
This place is really cute. I ordered a burrito but it wasn't the best. I also ordered a side of potato salad (which was very good). I'd like to go back and try again.

Ok so the burrito is mediocre…highly recommend getting either a nut burger or nutty taco. That is what they are known for and they are really good! 🙂

Worth the wait! - Edit
If you have time to burn, you’ll appreciate this older vegetarian restaurant with plenty of vegan options. I got the patty melt with vegan cheese and thoroughly enjoyed my order. Luckily, it was a beautiful day and waiting outside wasn’t a problem.

Long wait time - Edit
The first time I went here about a year ago, my boyfriend and I got the nachos and the burrito. I was disappointed in the basic ingredients. The cheese on the nachos wasn’t melted… #NotMyCheese lol. However, I’ve decided to give it another shot today and I was very pleasantly surprised with my order! Satisfied my burger craving with pretty clean ingredients. If you can’t decide between the two, I liked the flavor of the millet burger a bit more. I love that they have veganaise; To me, a sandwich is not complete without it. I also love pickles on my burgers, and both burgers had ‘em. Getting avocado on both burgers cost more than the cheesecake, which was reasonably priced. 😵💫 $2.75 to add avocado to one item? Next time I’ll just buy an avocado and add it myself. Really hope they stop increasing their prices though and open a second location to decrease the wait time. I’ll have to come back when it’s not as busy 🤗

[censored] customer service but bomb grub. - Edit
So don’t come when you’re too hungry…because the wait and the line will be long. They never answer their phone and the staff has never been overly friendly. But none of that slows down business because their nut burgers and nutty tacos are THAT GOOD. Also annoying is the lack of vegan milkshakes…but again…I’ll keep coming back for the yummy food regardless. 🙄

Love this place! Been going here for years! - Edit
This place has great Vegan food. Located in Beautiful Fair Oaks on Fair Oaks Blvd near Village Park and has been a staple of the community since 1978. My favorites are Super Nut Burger, Falafel (the bean sprouts they put on them are Bomb!!!) and Super Nachos 😋 another notable favorite is the smoothies! And the best part is it’s affordable!

A Fair Oaks Institution! - Edit
This place is just special. It’s been popular since the 70s for good reason. It’s charming, the food is tasty and comforting, and the setting is unique. Most of their menu can be veganized if it isn’t already vegan. I’ve never been disappointed by the food! Definitely try this place at least once if you’re in the area.

Cool place - Edit
We arrived around 6:30p on a Friday. Good flow of people. We were able to get a table. Food does take a little while, but we enjoyed the people watching as we waited. I had the nut burger. The fixings is what made it. The patty itself seemed bland. Took home the potato salad to add more seasoning to my taste. My date had the vegan burrito and thought it was alright. Would have liked a little more spice… salsa/pico de gallo.

Mushroom Millet Magic - Edit
As the title of my review implies, the vegan Mushroom Millet sandwich really is magical. I love the earthy, crunchy feel of this place and the food reflects its flower child vibes. No realistic bloody mock meats here! You'll get nuts, grains, and fresh produce. You do need to specify "vegan" but almost everything on the menu can be accomodated. Also, be ready to wait. If you're in a rush, this isn't the place to eat!

Satisfying and comforting - Edit
We came here for an early dinner. There was a bit of a line so we had to wait a bit for our takeout food. There are outdoor tables but it was a bit cold already.
Read moreBased on its popularity in the reviews, we go the nut burger and then the mushroom millet burger. We both liked the mushroom millet burger much more than the nut burger. We forgot to tell them to make it vegan so I’m pretty sure I tasted some butter on the buns.
Overall, I’d be back for a warm casual meal, but be prepared to wait a bit for your food. Decent amount of parking.
Pros: Mushroom millet burger, Outdoor seating
Cons: Not fully vegan, so you have to specify

Since 1978 - Edit
I always knew I can be vegetarian; but, this is one of those places that push and asks, “can you be vegan?” I am happy to live relatively close the past 9 years (much closer 6 years ago) that is this is one of my favorite staples. I’d work here just to see how they prepare the sunflower mead to open a chain in another state/country. A

Walk up style stop for a healthy veggie burger - Edit
You can tell the food is made fresh from whole ingredients, their veggie burger felt really wholesome and healthy, not greasy mock meat. They didn’t have a ton of vegan options as this place is mostly vegetarian but it was decent enough. I believe they have a vegan cinnamon roll but needs to be confirmed

It’s popular for a reason - Edit
We probably all know the nut burger is delicious by now. Probably one of my favorite places to eat because not only is it vegan friendly, but the food is actually tasty and filling. This is a great place to hang out with the roosters and enjoy your meal. My only con is that if you go here on a busy day, you will wait a decent amount of time to get food. It’s a small place with few staff, so you must be patient and understanding that they cannot pump food out as fast as maybe a full-size restaurant would.

Well worth a visit - Edit
Have been here a couple times on my way through town. The nut burgers are delicious and many of the other dishes are very tasty. It is very much a burger joint, so I wouldn't exactly call it a healthy option, but if you're in the mood for some fries, a burger, and a vegan shake, definitely check this place out.
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options, Reasonable prices (to fit the food-truck feel), Tasty and satisfying comfort food

Consistently good - Edit
Been coming here for 6 years. Great whether you’re vegan, veg, or not! Milkshakes are so good, nut burger, chili (winter), cornbread, etc. It only takes a little longer because the place is small and the few workers run themselves ragged to make your food quickly. Try it!
Read morePros: Lots of vegan & veg choices, Nice size meals, Funky setting :)
Cons: Don’t go if you’re in a mad rush
