Hostile towards veganism - Edit
When I asked the server what was vegan on their menu, she told me 1 thing: the veggie burger. Period. No helpful suggestions as to other options or other menu items that could easily be made vegan. Instead, when my friend ordered the salmon burger, she gushed about how her husband helped catch the salmon they used there. I don’t know, maybe I’m just sensitive, but I felt a low level of hostility from her about veganism in general. Plus the cult vibe is STRONG.
Read morePros: Neat atmosphere., Plenty of parking.
Cons: I won’t be back.

Too few options - Edit
When I asked, only two menu items were vegan, the Garden Burger and the Garden salad. I chose the salad and was pretty disappointed because I only got an uncreative mix of veggies (iirc iceberg lettuce with tomatoes and cucumber) with oil and vinegar. Not worth it as vegan, but you can eat there if someone else wants to go.
Read morePros: Very nice and knowledgeable service , Cool ambience
Cons: Too few options

Delicious garden burger with a side of of culty weirdness - Edit
I’ve been eating there since I was omni and everything had always been good, but their garden burger is easily the best veggie burger I’ve ever had. I dream about it. The atmosphere is cool and they’ve never tried to recruit me. 🤷♀️
Read morePros: Food is fresh and tasty, Reasonably priced, Interesting atmosphere
Cons: Busy, Usually a long wait, May end up being recruited into a cult

Wonderful - Edit
I love this place. There are some philosophies that are iffy but that goes with any belief I have heard of. There is a sandwich I get almost every time I go there called “the yoga vista special” it’s vegan! I will also enjoy the lentil soup when it is the soup of the day. Also any of the chairs can be made with almond milk !
Read morePros: Open late, Friendly, Taste yummy
Cons: Sometimes long wait

A Cult Classic - Edit
Walking into the Yellow Deli is quite the experience. The "Cult"ure is amazing and it truly feels like your on the olden days.
