I'm sorry it took so long to find out about Happy Cow, sign up, and respond to your review! I would recommend you try our vegan pizza, and some of our other vegan toppings if you don't like the faux chicken. We have an excellent vegan pepperoni, vegan sausage, vegan chorizo, an enormous assortment of farm fresh veggies! Several of our pizza sauces, including our delicious house marinara, are vegan. We also use a vegan mozzarella from Follow Your Heart, which we actually helped develop by offering our kitchen for test baking back in 2007, with Follow Your Heart's lead food chemist, Angel McNall. Glad to hear you enjoyed the vegan meatballs, they are also an excellent product. As to prices, we have no control over the prices companies charge for vegan products - they are indeed expensive. We make the same profit margin on vegan and non-vegan offerings, but the vegan offerings do tend to be more expensive. Also keep in mind that higher prices are to be expected at restaurants that retain quality staff and offer quality food. Minimum wage increases and inflation are real facts of life that restaurants have no control over. The music is never loud - it plays softly in the background. Perhaps your experience was back in 2019 when we had live entertainment inside the restaurant - if so, then we don't do that any more because it was a problem. Live entertainers now perform only on the patio outdoors. Thanks so much for your review, and we invite you to come by and earn more than 3 stars from you!
