Veg-options, but Mid.

While I'm glad they have meat-free options, the flavor is lacking and they definitely use the same equipment for both meat & veg.

Proceed with caution.

Cross contamination with meat grease

I personally don’t mind meat grease on my burger but it’s definitely likely and I wanted to warn y’all!! I really enjoy their fries, mozzarella sticks , Greek burger (my favorite item), and their milkshakes!

Pros: Wide variety of options

Cons: Cross contamination , Pricy

Just okay

Didn’t love the bean burger but maybe we will try it again. It’s super close by but I’d still rather go somewhere else.

Pros: A few vegan burger options

Cons: Pricey

Lots of options

I was surprised by how many options this little burger place had! The beyond burger was salty but still delicious. The falafel burger was excellent. Fries are good as well.

Parking can be difficult to find, but worth the hassle.

No real vegan options..

A beyond burger cooked in bacon grease is not a vegan burger... You should not advertise a vegan menu if you do not have a real vegan menu. Dairy, egg, animal body parts are all NON-VEGAN. Do not mix them with a plant menu!

Cons: No vegan options , Cooked in animal products , Egg, dairy, beef, pork in every menu item.

Veggie fast food

Carnivore restaurant with vegan and vegetarian options- 4 vegan burgers and 3 vegetarian burgers + 1 vegetarian hot dog.
Interesting idea changing the bread for a lettuce wrap.
I've ordered it through UberEats so I can't comment on the restaurant.

Pros: Tasty, Veg/Vegan options clearly marked on the menu

Really unfortunate veg options.

Honestly, I don’t understand how there could be that much burger grease on my veggie burger. It was pretty sad. I couldn’t eat it. I ordered a lentil burger but was give like a mash potato patty covered in grease. If you don’t mind near grease go head, but if not maybe steer clear.

No vegan options, excessive cross contamination

All food cooked on same cook top. "Vegan" options cooked on top of old bacon grease, melted cheese, and fried egg. Vegan bread toasted with buttered bread.

Great selection for a burger place.

The menu has quite a few options for a burger place. They offer lentil and the evasive beyond burger. Also, plenty of kids options and outdoor seating.

Disappointing

We were so excited to try the vegan burgers, but unfortunately the falafel burger was extremely fried and the “lentil” burger was nothing but smashed corn and potato (plus the burger had no lettuce, tomato, sauce etc.)

mushroom burger

Good mushroom burger, but my bottom bun was so soggy I couldn't pick it up. I look forward to trying the falafel burger at some point.

good fast food type burger

I have been here twice and Liked both the mushroom cap burger and the lentil burger. It is definitely for when you want something fast food leaning, but that can be hard to find as a vegan so I appreciate this location. Also decent prices.
I also have been here with a meat eater and she liked her burger as well.
4/5 not just because they serve meat and happy cow's rules

Meh...

So there are only three choices for vegans on the menu, which I knew going in. The service was quick and the servers friendly. However, the falafel burger I ordered was sooooo greasy and they didn't even have the tahini sauce to put on it. It was quick and cheap, which my stomach complained about later.

Pros: Quick, Cheap, Good service

Cons: Greasy, limited choices
