Exceptional

Cul de sac feel entering this pad. Quality raw dishes and a fair price point, no complaint. I seen higher at other places selling junk VF. Welcoming and customer service awesome! Never a disappoint aka bbB, raw crackers, bun and more...

Loved this place

Have to admit I’ve never been the type to seek out a raw restaurant/meal but I’m so glad I gave this place a shot today.
Had the crunchwrap, lemon bar, and a hot Noble Warrior drink. Lemon bars have always been my favorite dessert and I was so impressed with this one 🤤. The crunchwrap tasted remarkably similar to Taco Bell’s somehow but way better! The drink was phenomenal as well.
Super friendly staff too.

All raw vegan

Everything is fresh and healthy. I got the Crunchwrap and loved it. It’s a pretty big portion too. I’d get it again honestly. Only gotten takeout from here.

Pros: All vegan, All raw, Healthy

Cons: Pricey

Raw, Flavorful, and Local Farmers

I was energized by the nutritiously dense food. No food coma was felt after eating.

The BBQ beet burger was a balance of savory, creamy and right amount of crunch. The side of Kale chips was a plus.

Pros: No soy used in the whole menu!, Nothing is fried. , The well lit ambiance of the restaurant.

A uniquely heavenly vegan place

All the food is “raw” but what they really mean is they use a “dehydrator” to tenderize the veggies and then use their chef’s voodoo magic tastemaker powers to infuse the food with flavor! The mango tacos and a must-eat-before-you-die responsibility. The teas are refreshingly warm!

Best recommended place for raw vegan

We had the Taco Salad and the LBC Sandwich. I’ve never seen a prettier taco salad! Love the flavors in everything and they add a good amount of sauce to everything. They also had a nice store when you walk in full of natural products. Parking was full in the weekend so we parked in the structure behind.

Amazing Raw OIL FREE options!

This place is our new go-to for the amazing oil-free options. We feel phenomenal after eating the Mango tacos (no crema), the papaya roll, and the avocado cream cheese roll. They also have some bomb grab n go items like raw jalepeno poppers (so addicting!) cult cheeze, flax crackers and kale chips. The best shake is the Cosmic Caravan!

I need more Raw Food!

Sometimes I forget that part of being vegan is to be healthy and to eat clean. So when I stumble across a Raw Vegan restaurant, I find myself saying that only if I could eat this stuff all day everyday, I would live a long life! Under The Sun provides seriously delicious dishes. This is the best of the best.

We enjoyed the Tu-Nah Wrap (collard greens), the BBQ Cheezeburger, a smoothie and something else I can't remember but it was delicious trust me.

Raw Food in Long Beach!

I visited foe the first time during the pandemic and it’s 100% take out / to go right now. I’m so excited about their raw food - I’ve been high raw for 15 years or so now and the whole fancy burger and fry joints don’t do it for me. This is real plant food and you feel fantastic after eating it! Their pandemic menu is limited but still generous. All the to go containers are compostable. So much integrity the same way I do vegan. I got the burrito, veggie dip and my Lover had the mango taco and crunchy roll. Oh seasonal persimmon pie! Next door on one side is a hot yoga studio. On the other is Rainbow juices. I drove all the way from my home in downtown Los Angeles to try Under the Sun and will do it again!

expensive, but a learning experience

Has foods I never ate before, like quassia. The food is healing, almost at a spiritual level. There's even a workout studio in the back. I got overcharged one time though, so make sure you double check.

Pros: unique ingredients, educational, staff knows their stuff

Cons: no parking without pay, difficult to get to - cross busy streets, got overcharged one time

Raw Food Heaven!

Despite temporarily serving food only to take out (Covid-19) this place is definitely worth a visit! I ordered the “ish” cheezeburguer: made with an onion seed “bread” and a beet/walnut/sage patty... Amazing. I also got the Surf ‘N’ Earth Salad. Cannot fault them. Yum yum yum

Pros: Good selection of food , Healthy choices , Nice premises and friendly service.

Downtown Long Beach Raw Vegan

There are not many options for raw vegan restaurants which makes under the sun a great place to visit when in Long Beach. We enjoyed everything we had on the menu the same from the tacos to the burger to the cheesecake !

Pros: Healthy, Great taste , Sustainability

Best Raw Vegan Restaurant

I love this beautiful, sun drenched spot! The sister store to Rainbow Juices, Under The Sun offers super fresh, local grown and prepared raw vegan foods packed with flavor in a gorgeous but unpretentious atmosphere. It's obvious a lot of love is invested in this family owned business. I'm biased, of course, being friends with both of the women owners, but I'm being absolutely honest that the food is amazing and I'm always delighted by new items each time I visit. Fave dishes: The LBC, The Ish, the Tostadas (can't recall the cute name...), Cult Toast, and the Lemon Bars. Oh, and the Sweet Cacao and Coco Latte drinks! The Peaceful Easy Feeling shot is nice, too.

Pros: Whole Food Plant Based Vegan , Friendly Helpful Staff, Good downtown location

Cute place, delicious food 👌🏼

First of all this restaurant is really beautiful and cozy and the staff was very kind and helpful.
Second of all, the food was deliciiiious and I love that everything is raw and organic! The food also came out pretty fast (I was the only one in the restaurant at the time) so that’s also a plus.

The food menu isn’t huge like other places I’ve visited and I liked that, it helped me decide faster what I wanted. I ordered the pistachio pesto noodles, a match latte and a little extra spicy papaya roll to go. I loved every single thing I got and the portions left me comfortable full!

10/10 would definitely recommend!

Pros: Amazing raw + organic vegan food, Great service, Very nice place

Cons: A bit expensive

The atmosphere is great

Great vibe and decor. But the food is over priced and not all that good. It also lacks nutritional value. You could make it better at home.

Pros: Good music, Nice vibe

Cons: Expensive , Lacking balanced nutrition

So delicious

When I hear the word "raw" I may think "dirt" and "grass". After eating here, I'll never think that again. The food here is so delicious and filling. And their desserts are to die for! I highly recommend this restaurant. 👍👍

Pros: All raw, Gourmet style, Desserts are bomb.com

Cons: Zero
