Nice find in NC - Edit
I travel a lot for work and this was a nice find it in North Carolina. The staff was very friendly and the food, overall, was delicious. The yeero was very tasty and made the meal but I am sorry to say that the mac & cheese was slightly too oily.
Read morePros: Interesting choices not in a typical vegan rest, All vegan
Cons: Max & cheese slightly too oily.

Best cheap vegan food evahhh - Edit
I was in absolute heaven!! Greek cuisine has always been my favorite so this place had a lot to live up to...but this place did it! Had the spanikopta, gyro, dolmates, chocolate baklava, and hibiscus tea and it was all fabulous. Going back again before we have to leave town!

Vegan in NC - Edit
Tucked away location but amazing food. I never thought I'd find vegan donner kabob but low and behold Vegan Community Kitchen. The owners also own a vegan restaurant in Istanbul. Simple foods prepared on site with care and flavor. I'll be sure to visit again and would recommend it without hesitation.
Read morePros: Entirely vegan menu. Amazing coffee.

Wasn’t impressed - Edit
I wanted to love it, but really I didn’t. Fake meat was spongy in texture, and there was a ton of it. I did enjoy the Mac and cheese also the cake was good. The salads looked good and I’ll probably give it one more shot before crossing it off my list.
Read moreI just didn’t think it lived up to the hype (unfortunately bc I love supporting vegan restaurants ESPECIALLY local ones!!).
Pros: Pita, Mac and cheese, &chocolate cake were great , Good vibe , Good staff
Cons: Lots of plastic , Not great seitan (we had a lot of it in 2 dishes)

Best Gyro i’ve had - Edit
I loved my meal here! I did not expect to find an all vegan place during my visit, and was happily surprised. It was the best gyro i’ve had. Unfortunately i live hours away, or else i would be going here all the time. We bought some baklava for the road and snacked on it all day.

This is a great place. The food is delicious and the staff is very friendly. I had the “authentic yeero” and whatever the meat analogue they make is, it’s fantastic. Can’t wait to come back and continue eating my way through the menu.

Amazing!!!! Go there now! - Edit
Incredible food by very nice staff. Ordered the red lentil soup and it was perfect. I have been lucky enough to have visited Istanbul and it is just like soup there I fell in love with. The spanakopita was super good. I’ve never seen a vegan spanakopita offered before and it was excellent. Ordered the kitchen burger and the cheese burger and it was AMAZING! Also ordered a ton of food to go and I’m so excited to eat it later.

Welcome to Apex :) - Edit
So glad we have our very own 100% vegan restaurant. We went the second day open and enjoyed mac'n cheese, doner warp, veggie wrap and minestrone soup.
Read moreWould love to see a move toward reusable cutlery, cups and plates if they haven't' yet.
Pros: Good Value (sweet potatoes fries were pricey), Very friendly, Good options
Cons: Parking is tight, Disposable plates, cutlery, lots of plastic waste

We ran into issues with the health department for offering metal cutlery because of the out of dishwasher in the kitchen, but it’s not an insurmountable problem if you have food in casual fast service restaurants.. We should start carrying our own cutlery is a new trend in Europe..We are so very sorry about that but we just started to serve few weeks ago so we will solve this issue pretty soon but thank you very much for your excellent review and support for our food..Parking problems are going to be solved at the end of this month..

Yes, great! We brought our own cloth napkins, forks and water bottles for Valentine's Day. The lasagne and salad were yummy! I volunteer with a zero-waste group and can help you transition, when you're ready! :)

All vegan restaurant in Apex! - Edit
I just tried Vegan Community Kitchen and was very impressed. The authentic gyro was wonderful and the wrap was the thick traditional gyro breaded wrap that makes this so good. Their baklava is probably the best I've ever had. They also had two soup options. I tried the potato leek soup which was more like a vegetable soup with a hint of spice...it was very good. Service was fast and very nice. And the prices are very reasonable.
Read morePros: All Vegan!!!!!!!!, Soup!, Baklava

I can serve you a meal that’s just as good and with no cruelty to animals, you can also come for having your favorites again and again.

Exceptional! - Edit
Very nice vegan restaurant! There are many solid options for vegans from salads, soups, wraps, burgers, platters and desserts! We had the Iskender Kebab, mac & cheese and spanakopita, baklava and chocolate cake. It was all very flavorful, fresh and memorable. The restaurant is small ( sits 18) but the tables are well spaced out so you do not feel crowded or cramped. It is quite stylishly decorated. There is also a kids menu. Staff super friendly and service top notch. We plan on returning again and again and again!
Read morePros: excellent food, great service, lots of options

We are so happy to hear your satisfaction of the food, yes it has been too late not to start eating healthy food around, we just started with our hearts and we believe that only good can follow, we promise to keep the quality forever..
