  • Brand new, awesome vegetarian fast food restaurant

Brand new, awesome vegetarian fast food restaurant, even including a drive-through! Located at the corner of Golf Course Dr. and Redwood Dr. one block west of Hwy 101 in Rohnert Park, CA. This is a 95% organic, vegetarian restaurant with inside and patio seating and a drive-through, right down the block from a Taco Bell, Burger King, Arbys, In-N-Out Burger. This place is far superior to those in food quality, environmental conscientiousness, health promotion and ethical standards. They have been doing test runs with employees and local friends so far. It will be open mid July to the general public. This restaurant is 100% vegetarian, while offering a great selection of typical American fast food type comfort foods and a few international selections as well. For example, this restaurant offers meat-free burgers, burritos, macaroni and cheese, pizza, salad, and chili, as well as milkshakes and vegan non-dairy shakes. I have had their burgers and pizzas. The burgers were great. The pizza did not rival stand-alone pizza places for crust,sauce and topping, but were much healthier and still tasted good. Some highlights: Each menu item can be ordered vegan or gluten-free. Every ingredient is non-GMO. More than 95 percent of the products are organic. Much of the ingredients will be locally sourced. The menu is peanut and egg-free. Amy’s is taking extra care to make sure there will be no cross-contamination that could affect those who are allergic to wheat or those who insist on strictly vegan food. Considering the high level of quality. The pricing is very reasonable: not much higher than the local Burger King. A single patty burger cost $2.99. A standard burrito $4.69 Personal cheese pizza $5.89. Salads start as low as $3.99. They have taken extraordinary ecological care in the construction and operation: Living roof, covered with grasses. Rain capture and use for irrigation. Most materials used in construction sourced from up-cycled materials. Uniforms worn by employees made of organic, fair trade cotton.
