"Some good some not so good."   My Rating

	Review: First timers here for a Sunday brunch. My partner had the tofu scramble and the avocado salad which she quite enjoyed. I had the coconut tofu and the pancakes with fruit which for me were some of the worst food I have had in some time. The coffee and tea were good, the service challenged at best, and although not the fault of the restaurant an invasion of flies and assorted flying things inside. The place could be a bit cleaner. There was great potential for both my dishes and I suggest that whomever owns this place invest in a couple of decent cook books. Perhaps the one from Rebar in Victoria B.C. for a start. The coconut tofu was beyond bland and didn't need to be as such (the dipping sauce didn't help) and the chewy pancakes lacked any flavour even with a generous slathering of maple syrup. The "fruit" that was supposed to be part of the meal was barely a garnish (two small wedges of watermelon and one sliced strawberry) the same as on my wife's plate (it seemed like a garnish on her plate). As with any eatery it's hit or miss and subjective to one's palate. I likely won't be back, my partner, she may give it another try. For $44 with tip there are so many much better options as far as quality of food and level of service. I hope they make a go of it. I just won't be betting they will.   Pros: Some interesting menu items * Fresh alternative * Great potential Cons: Very bad service * Poorly prepared dishes lacking flavour * Needs a real good cleaning

"Veg Out is Fantastic!"   My Rating

	Review: My family and I have been navigating london restaurants for years, attempting to enjoy vegan/vegetarian meals, so we were thrilled when veg out opened just a few blocks from our home. We've been there on a weekly basis, often enjoying our meals on the patio, ever since and are not disappointed. Service is always excellent, answering questions, bringing items promptly (a must when dining with a 6 month baby and 5 year old!), and making recommendations, despite how busy the restaurant is. We've sampled the majority of the dishes and have found them all to be fresh, flavourful and generally delicious. The pate sandwich is amazing, especially with their green salad. My daughter loves the soba sesame noodle bowl, although I find it a little heavy on sesame oil. Its nice that the menu isn't too heavy with faux meat. The desserts are fab too. In fact, we have yet to order something we were unhappy with! Go now, go often, and enjoy with a nice glass of organic wine on a sunny patio! Thanks for relocating to London!   Pros: * * Cons: * *

"Vegan Fish and Chips!"   My Rating

	Review: This place was an annual ritual when they were located in Stratford, Ontario. We would go see a play and then have dinner at Veg Out! Sorry to see them leave Stratford, but now we just need to visit London, Ontario more often! Really friendly staff and the food is always terrific. I've never had anything I didn't like.   Pros: Excellent food * "fish" and chips!!! * very friendly staff Cons: * *

"First impression"   My Rating

	Review: Busy restaurant with great staff. We were there on saturday night and the place was obviously hectic but the head waitress was great, very gracious with excellent service. The food was okay, we wondered what's organic, soup was bland, but the coconut tofu is delicious. Atmosphere is beautiful with the soft textured walls and intriguing photos.   Pros: Service * atmosphere * food Cons: half empty menu * soup * loud blender

We were overwhelmed, and sold out of many things that week! Fortunately, we are getting better every day and things are running much more smoothly and efficiently. As far as organic goes, we get organic flour and oats from the Arva Flour Mill, organic produce from Pfenning's Organic Produce (bananas, apples, carrots, lettuce, spinach, zucchini, tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, pea sprouts, beets, etc...), and many ingredients from the Ontario Natural Food Coop (tofu, soy milk, lentils, black beans, quinoa, sugar, soba noodles, etc...), But these lists do change depending on what is in available. We were going to post a list of organic ingredients but it is too large and varies too frequently to be useful. If you are concerned about which.... response by Florine - report abuse -

"FANTASTIC!!!"   My Rating

	Review: This place is quite a treasure! London's first and only (I do believe) fully vegan restaurant. I haven't tried the entire menu yet but I do recommend the coconut tofu, fett. alfredo, and the \"fish\"...for sides you can't go wrong with avocado toast or sweet potato corn bread. Dessert is also very delicious here! EAT HERE!!!   Pros: food * staff * atmosphere Cons: closed mondays :P * *
