Review: Natural Cafe has good vegetarian options. My newly vegetarian boyfriend loves the zen burger (meat-free). When he still ate meat, he said it was better than a real burger. I usually get the black bean enchiladas which are delicious. The sauteed tofu is also very good. Salads are delicious.
A few complaints:
*The service is generally only so-so.
*The location is too small. Don't try to go there at noon Monday through Friday.
*With so many vegetarian options and meat substitutes it should be a 100% meat-free restaurant (I ordered the vegetarian enchiladas once and they gave me chicken in them. And it was to-go so I had to go back to the restaurant to get it right.)
*Ordering at the register with the staff who generally don't like their jobs can be frustrating if you want to modify the menu items.
Pros: Vegetarian options * Healthy options *
Cons: Apathetic staff * Small location * |

Review: The Natural Cafe has great food. The service is touch and go. The items are pretty pricey for what they are made from. It's usually crowded. The staff isn't as careful when a vegan/vegetarian is ordering. They don't commit the ingredients to memory, but rely on a list by the register.
Pros: Good food * Healthy *
Cons: Crowded * Pricey * Semi-rude service |

Review: The Natural Cafe has a menu which you can check out online at www.naturalcafe.com. There are vegan options on the vegetarian and sandwich menus, but they're not labelled as vegan, so you need to ask to be sure. When I asked whether the bread contained dairy or eggs, the employee said she didn't know and unlike in most restaurants, did not offer to check.
My omni partner and I found the stirfry delicious, but it needed more sauce.
Note that no ingredients are organic, not even for the smoothies.
Pros: Delicious food * Vegan menu items *
Cons: Not organic * Unhelpful staff * |
