Unique and tasty

I’ve been here a few times and each time I’ve enjoyed it (I especially like the fish cakes). Only real downside is that they are only open for a few hours on Sunday.

Seriously the BEST vegan tacos EVER!!

I’m SO happy i found this place!! If you’re in the area, i promise you want/need to try this place! I had the walnut taco supremes…so fresh and delicious! My only regret is that i didn’t order more! This is definitely the best vegan tacos I’ve ever had!! I’m serious!!
The owner, Yah-I, was very kind and friendly! The location is back away from the street, inside a food kitchen hall, Suite G.
Currently only open on Sunday, so don’t miss out!

Pros: Reasonably priced, Fresh plant based, Plenty of choices

Healthy and delicious

I ate here a few years ago and I like that they don’t use soy in their food. The flavors are unique. I love this place. I plan on revisiting this place once nice I visit the area

Great flavor

Great food and reasonably priced. A non-plant based friend enjoyed it as well. I'll definitely come back again.

Absolutely wonderful

The mock fish cake was the best I’ve ever had.
Cheesy grits were perfect.
Awesome brunch.
Very accommodating, friendly, and welcoming.
I’ve been to plenty of vegan places, and this place is a must. You won’t be disappointed.
(I forgot to take a picture of my food because it looked too good and I had to eat it 🤣)

Super accommodating

We came with a group of 25 people and they couldn’t have been more accommodating or quick with our large group. What’s better? The food was AMAZING. He is a magician in the kitchen. Highly recommend!

Over 1hr wait for a to-go order

Decent food, love to support black owned businesses, decently priced.

The only downside is it took over 1hr (when they told us 40min and we arrived late) for our lunch order on a Saturday. We are pretty certain they forgot about our order. We hope they are able to work out the issues and get a more reasonable wait time. We would not return for this type of wait time.

$11 Fish cakes with quinoa and coconut rice (half and half) and a side kale salad
        FIsh Cakes: Only available on Friday and Saturday. We were told they are a popular item. We have never had fish cakes before and they were good.
        Quinoa and Coconut Rice: We asked for half and half bc we weren't sure what we'd like better. We preferred the coconut rice.
         Kale Salad: This came as a side with the Fish Cake special. We really enjoyed the kale salad. It had a good flavor.

$8 Large Mac & Cheese (listed as $7 online) : We were disappointed. The mac & cheese is flavored with a curry seasoning or something and it doesn't really taste like Mac & Cheese.

$6 Berry Flava 16oz: Disappointing, not a lot of flavor, didn't finish.

$6 Island Flava 16oz: Better than the Berry, but main flavor is bananas.

The smoothies have 'alkaline' water in them and it tasted like there was seltzer water in the smoothie which also diluted them.

*They use paper straws, paper bags. Other containers are plastic cups and to go containers sadly

If we return we'd like to try the tacos or taco supreme salad.
Parking: There is a lot near Jimmy John's which is also shared with the market.

Pick Up/Payment: Due to COVID-19 when you arrive for your order they ask that you call. They bring out your food and use an iPad for payment. However they don't have wifi in the parking lot so they take your card and run it. We would prefer a different system such as calling in the card number or at least have the option.

Pros: Price

Cons: Slow wait times

Excellent!

Great place with excellent food and wonderful service. The gentleman that made my meal really wanted to know how the food was and actually gave a free sample of a dish he was making. Really hope that this pace makes it.

Hip Location with a Variety of Food Options

Very nice people here and delicious food. Will be going back to try different dishes, so many choices! I had the three tacos filled with all sorts of delicious vegan things and beans. They were very filling, I should have stuck with just two. A few different vegan options in the same little shopping spot. Good if you have some picky people with you.

Pros: Other options close by for picky eaters

Cons: Butcher in the same vicinity

Fast, friendly, healthy & tasty!

We’re in Durham for a wedding and decided to make the trip to Chapel Hill area for this new spot. Glad we did! Mother in law gave us a newspaper article (c’mon, she’s 70 something) about this place and it did not disappoint! Good portions, rich flava for being so healthy. Felt energized, but satisfied. Recommend the faux seafood wraps (wrapped in Nori) and faux fish cakes.

Pros: VEGAN, Fast, Friendly

Very good!!

It was yummy!! There was a butcher shop with raw meat in the viewing area right next to it, if you’re sensitive to that. Yet, they were very nice and serve samples of the food. Also there are many vegan restaurants and options around this area! Btw, it’s inside of the dogwood market.

Pros: Their vegan fish tacos are very good! , Very nice people running it!, Lots of different vegan options around this area!
