So awesome - Edit
It's a vegan dream. I ordered way too much food and don't regret it at all.
Read moreI had mac & cheese, a double cheeseburger, chili cheese fries, and a milkshake. Friends talked me out of getting pizza, also, but it looked amazing.
Everything was delicious, and I really hope to go back some day.
Pros: Milkshakes, Chili cheese fries, Friendly
Cons: Non-vegan options

How cool is this! - Edit
Stopped in here twice today. This afternoon for a non dairy chocolate shake. Yum!! Went back this evening for a double Amy's burger and fries with fresh lemonade. We were not disappointed. Healthy comfort food. A fun, clean atmosphere. I hope they expand to other places. Highly recommended.

Brand new, awesome vegetarian fast food restaurant - Edit
Brand new, awesome vegetarian fast food restaurant, even including a drive-through!
Read moreLocated 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.

amazing concept, well executed - Edit
My company stocks it's freezer with Amy's products to keep employees healthily fed, and we have a lot of Amy's choices.
Read moreI was afraid that the Drive Thru would serve the same items defrosted and ready to eat. I'm happy to report that it's not the case (for the most part).
The burger and pizza had resemblance to the frozen variety but the drive thru versions were awesome. Good bun, great sauce and the pizza crust has a gluten free option (pretty much everything had a gluten free option).
Salads were awesome and a great value.
Mac and cheese was ok, pretty much the same as the frozen version (looks good but lacks flavor). They offer some variations like broccoli and green onion toppings.
The fries were the highlight. Awesome tasting potatoes. The vegan milkshake was light and delicious. Cane sugar sweetened soda from the fountain was really good also.
If I could compare to veggie grill (another fast food concept), I'd say Amy's tasted more wholesome, was much more friendly on the wallet, but most of all, Amy's has soul while Veggie Grill is pretty corporate.
The best part was seeing a line out the door at Amy's while In N Out (1 block away) seemed to have less traffic vs last week. Let's hope that trend continues.

Yes, they've actually done it - Edit
So I wandered in to this new place that's supposed to be a vegetarian/vegan drive-thru.
Read moreIt was packed. Even on the Thursday night following their Monday opening. I'm not clear that everyone in there was even comprehending that this is a vegetarian restaurant. But many people were there. And there were quite a few cars in the drive-thru lane as well.
So I waited my turn and ordered "The Amy." I found a seat and noticed an outlet that would have been awfully nice if I'd brought my laptop in, pulled out my phone and checked for WiFi. Yes, they have it. Given how crowded the place was, though, it would have been rude to have set up shop with my laptop and camped for a few hours.
My food eventually arrived--given how crowded the place was, I was a little surprised this worked at all. But they held it together and sure enough, I had a double-patty burger with faux cheese, no onions, and something--probably the sauce--that at least initially tasted a bit like bacon, just as I'd ordered.
Now there's something that needs to be understood here. Amy's isn't trying to produce fine food. It's supposed to be fast food. And fast food burgers are, well, tasteless. I'm pleased to report that Amy's patties are indeed tasteless. If you have a hankering for a fast food burger, you won't be disappointed.
Fortunately for me, there are other things on the menu I can try next time.
Pros: service, friendly staff, cheap!
Cons: tasteless patties
