The powerhouse at Zia's are great! I had one vegan style, sans the cheese and my friend had the meat version. Both of us were very pleased with our sandwiches.

Pros: excellent service, good value, healthy cuisine
Cons: was a bit noisy but worth it

Great Veg and Vegan Options in a Cozy Little Place

4 Posted on 07 / 30 / 2009

Even though I've worked in this area for over a year, I JUST got myself over to Zia's... boy, do I wish I did it sooner! Although there are a few meat dishes there, there is quite a variety of veg and vegan options... both to order fresh or pre-packaged. I was impressed by their pre-packaged foods. Most were vegan and raw. Some examples: beet ravioli, zucchini alfredo, falafel, spring rolls, mock tuna, and various salads. I ended up getting a fresh marinated tofu wrap, which was delicious (though kind of plain), and a scrumptious strawberry banana smoothie. I highly recommend this place to veg, vegan, raw food, and generally healthy eaters! Oh, and it's a cute place, with a decent amount of tables inside and a few tables on the sidewalk outside. The staff is friendly and helpful. The prices are bit high, but this always seems to be the case when locally grown food and organic ingrediants are used, so it doesn't bother me.

Pros: Food is tasty and healthy, Great variety of foods, Great staff
Cons: Bit pricey but not unreasonable, Sometimes run out of certain food items

Great veggie delights

The Royal Hawaiian smoothie is fantastic and filling. The tofu sandwich with pesto is excellent. In brief, everything I've tried there is wonderful and fresh. Although they have meat items, this place really caters to vegetarians, raw food enthusiasts and vegans. I worked in the area for two weeks and ate there almost every day. Great staff, too. (no, they didn't pay me, ha).

Pros: Great veggie selection., Great fresh smoothies.
Cons: Close early (7pm most nights)
