Not great - Edit
You will leave this spot reeking of their fryer lingering on your hair and clothes for the rest of the day. I’d suggest take out if you’ll try it. This is an unfortunate experience, because the food is decent. Not great, but decent.

Delish!!!! - Edit
I went to this place 4/7 days during my trip because everything was so delicious. The mock chick’n was cooked super well! I had it on the Thai bowl. I wish I lived locally because I would eat here all the time. Oh and don’t forget the lemonade 😍!!!
Read morePros: The atmosphere was perfect., The food was delicious., It wasn’t a long wait for my food.

Tasty and friendly service - Edit
I had a burger and sweet potato fries, but as I’m gluten free the burger was wrapped in lettuce. It was very nice, nice seating area and friendly staff.

Delicious - Edit
Delicious and healthy. I like the bowls which are hearty, not greasy or too salty, full of flavor on its own without dressing.

Good… - Edit
The food is good and kinda healthy. However I would have liked it better if it wasn't cold, the restaurant was not busy and we waited too long to eat. There were literally two customers there, and we didn't see any customers picking up orders, while we were waiting.

Amazing! 🤩😻 - Edit
The food here was really delicious and for a very good price compared to other places in this area. The staff was friendly and it was easy to find a parking spot close by. I also really loved the atmosphere at this place. I'm only staying in the area for a few more days, but I'm sure I'll come back here before I leave.

Went to this place for lunch today and was not disappointed. I ordered the chicken tenders - 10/10, spring rolls - 8/10, fries 10/10, and birthday cake cookie 1000/10. Would definitely re-order everything I ate.

Yummy food - Edit
Loved their food. We ordered Avocado Jalapeno Cheeseburger with split pea soup, Orange Chik'n Burger with French Fries and chocolate shake.
Read moreThe Avocado Jalapeno Cheeseburger was just yummy, made with their freshly made house-patty.
Service was good. Polite and friendly. No complaints.
Beautiful ambience with lots of indoor plants. It was very refreshing.
However, they don’t have recycling bins and they could replace plastics with compostable/biodegradable plastics or paper products.
We have just one planet, and it is on the verge of dying. Wish more people were mindful about the waste pollution.
Pros: Lots of vegan options.
Cons: Mindless plastic waste

If Only They Didnt - Edit
When Ahimsa was Zephyr it was incredible! Once it switched, it went down hill. The quality of food, the available choices, the quality of service all are not great.
Read moreI met my wife there and we used to go back yearly on our anniversary but decided after year three that the lack of good food and service was just no longer worth it, so we celebrate meeting at other vegan eateries.
Cons: Quality of food, Service

Disappointing :/ - Edit
Walked in to warm restaurant on a hot Saturday, with no music playing, and a very dry ambiance. Walked to the counter, and was ignored by the employee. Had to initiate contact, and was told to hold on. Ahimsa Burger and Thai bowl came out luke warm. Was a dry tempeh burger, didn’t feel like a house made burger as expected. Burger was missing mushrooms, and bun wasn’t toasted. Felt like it came from a grocery store. Iceberg lettuce seemed lo-quality and basic. Upgraded to sweet potato fries, which were the only thing that came out warm. Ordered another side of regular fries, but they came out cold, felt frozen and processed. Only ate a few. Thai Bowl had room temp veggies, rice, and tempeh cubes, all underwhelming. Peanut sauce was the best part.
Read moreHibiscus tea & ginger lemon drink came out room temp, had to ask for a glass of ice. Tables were dirty, and felt neglected. Was considering dessert, but ice cream had freezer burn on top, and the “fresh desserts” seemed a couple days old. Management needs to step it up before I would return.
Pros: Wide selection vegan menu, Nice decor
Cons: Served in disposable containers & plastic, Doesn’t feel fresh, Poor ambiance, uncomfortable to dine in

Best Vegan Food in Long Beach - Edit
Ahimsa has great food and THE best in Long Beach. Fiesta Burrito is outstanding. Southern Fried Chicken Strips are very tasty. They recently began making vegan taro milk boba and we LOVE it.
