Ghost Kitchen!! - Edit
*ONE STAR* Happy Cow won’t allow less cuz it’s a vegetarian “restaurant”. Don’t try going here it’s a ghost kitchen on a pretty filthy alleyway. Not sure what this is, I don’t think it is still run by the Sri Chimnoy monks? I don’t think this should even be on Happy Cow, it’s not a vegetarian restaurant. The kitchen is being shared with a bunch of other restaurants and again, it is a ghost kitchen so there’s no place to sit or anything. It seems like someone just using the name of an old veg restaurant that shut down to try to make a little money

Still So Good, Except… - Edit
I was really excited that Ananda Fuara is open again, and the appetizers and entrees we ordered are still so good - but, oh no, what happened to the cakes?!?
Read moreWe got slices of both the chocolate and cardamom rose cakes, our two favorites from before they had closed. They were the best cakes… but they just aren’t the same. Less icing and the cake isn’t nearly as good as it used to be. So disappointed!
Also, it’s a ghost kitchen, so take out only, unfortunately.
Overall still yummy.
Pros: Really yummy, Lots of vegan options
Cons: Ghost kitchen - take out only, What happened to the cakes?!?

Great Meal from Start to Finish - Edit
Like others have shared, their Neatloaf Dinner is what sold us on this spot. I have a soft spot for businesses that make their own vegan renditions of meat instead of relying on mock products (not that there's anything wrong with them!) The dinner came with a side of vegetables and mashed potatoes and gravy, which were all delicious.
Read moreThe neatloaf was 100% DEE-LISH. You absolutely must order this.
We also got their ravioli in marinara dish with seasonal vegetables inside its delicate wrap. I appreciate Ananda seeking the freshest ingredients to use in their dishes and was happy with the amount of ravioli that we got in our order. Another delicious dish.
Our meal would not be over without dessert and they serve a variety of vegan cakes and pies. We went with their Cardamom Cake which was a hit - light with a kick to finish off our meal.
Even as we approached their closing hours, we never felt rushed by them to leave. In fact, another party was offered the dessert menu ten minutes after closing, which to me shows them putting in the effort to ensure customers leave satisfied. Of course, we'd leave if they needed us to be out for closing, but I appreciated this small gesture very much.
Pros: Neatloaf is really where it's at!, Friendly service

One of my favs - Edit
Four stars simply because I wish they were all vegan. This is one of my fav spots to dine alone, I really enjoy the peaceful vibe during the daytime and the desserts are all vegan - the pistachio cardamom cookie is a fav!

I've been eating here since 2002 and they just celebrated their 39th birthday. Always good food, all vegetarian and vegan options for almost everything.
Read morerecommendations: Neatloaf, Ensalada mexicana... weekend brunch: always get the fried potatoes!
Juevos Rancheros are great as are the pancakes.
Also: the Lemon Tahini dressing is perfection
Pros: Lemon Tahini Dressing, Breakfast potatoes, Consistently good

tasty home-cooked food - Edit
Great spot in a not so great neighborhood. The spinach artichoke ravioli was delicious. The neatloaf was so-so. I loved the mango lassi.
Read moreNote: it’s in a really bad neighborhood. A man stole my laptop bag right off the back of my chair and walked out. The owner was really nice and gave me $20 since I had no wallet or money or phone to call anyone. But I can’t return after this awful incident

A regular - Edit
I have come here quite a bit for both takeout and eat in. The ensalada Mexicana is my favorite but I’ve tried many dishes. The soups are very good and with the somosa is great, or soup and salad. The specials are tasty. The vegan neatloaf is a standard too. The vegan house made veggie burger is delicious. The cakes are all house made and so good. The curries are superb. They go through a lot of staff changes but I’ve always gotten friendly service.

good food but weird experience - Edit
I went on June 19, a few days after things were set to reopen in California following COVID restrictions, which may explain some of the disappointing aspects of the experience. There were only two other tables occupied in the time I was there (despite ample seating), but there were at least 3 people on wait staff. The food I tried was pretty good, but the dish they served it in was chipped and had a small smudge on it (that I wiped off before taking pictures). A fly landed on me while I was sitting in the dining area. The interior, including the bathrooms, were functional but not exactly what you’d expect for the price.

Yummy cake - Edit
Highly recommended. By far the best vegan carrot cake I've ever had. Definitely the best vegan cake I've tried in all of the bay area. The samosas are full of flavor. Veggie burger is delicious. Staff is diligent and attentive. Even though not everything on the menu is vegan, at Ananda Fuara you don't have to worry that you'll accidentally get served something nonvegan on accident. I ate here with a nonvegan friend and staff double and triple checked that the person ordered correctly and knew their items weren't vegan. So great to see. Thank you!

The yogi tea is the BOMB! Spicy and rich. So many of the dishes can be made vegan. I don’t remember how many times I’ve had the neat loaf dinner or sandwich.

Good option for the area - Edit
Tons of vegan options here. I think entire dessert menu list is vegan. The chocolate cake is labeled as award winning, and I agree. Portions are big... Bummed I forgot my take home container on the table.

Good food - Edit
Ananda Fuara is a vegetarian restaurant with a lot of vegan choices or dishes that can be made vegan. Based on the recommendation of the server, I ordered the Infinite Bleu dish (made vegan), a warm 'salad' that was a mix of stir fried vegetables and whole rice. For anyone looking for a hearty vegetable-heavy dish I highly recommend ordering the infinite Bleu. My partner ordered the artichoke spinach ravioli, which I thought was mediocre ravioli drenched in a dominating tomato sauce. Contrary to the experience of other reviewers, the service when I visited was perfectly fine and I thought the portions were generous and reasonably priced (for sf). I recommend giving this place a try, but I would stick with their unique dishes and not go with pasta.

I have been wanting to try this vegetarian spot for awhile. Walked down from Japan Town festival. Some open tables since I came at 4pm an hour after brunch shutdown. Did seat me a large table instead of next to rest room reluctantly. Only one waitress so the not so friendly bus boy took my order. With a full house it was hard for her to be too attentive. One table even walked up to cashier and asked if they needed to order there.
Vegan options available for many items.
Bowl of Dal starter $4.95. Thick spicy rich tasting. Thumbs up so a good add on.
Ordered the Neatloaf dinner option $14.95 based on reviews instead of the sandwich. I was jonesing for some good mashed potatoes and gravy.
Neatloaf was light and the sauce sweet. Certainly not as dense as a non vegan version.
Potatoes a bit lukewarm but I liked the mushroom gravy and did not miss a butter substitute. They did brown them a bit on the outside. Also,.I did eat all my silver dollar sized lettuce and carrot salad!!
Never was asked if everything was okay. Good thing they were.
This is definitely a major comfort food cheat day.!! Not inexpensive so can't do this often but I will be back next time I'm in the city.
Too full after main course but ordered dessert to go. Famous chocolate cake $4.95 She brought to table on plate. When I asked to go they swapped out with a smaller less attractive slice.
Pros: Plenty of vegan options
Cons: Poor service, only one waitress for the whole room

Amazing and affordable - Edit
For me, Ananda Fuara is like LASIK: the only thing I regretted about both of them was that I had waited so long to go through with both of them! A friend (not vegan but lactose intolerant) and I met up there at 18:45 on a Thursday, and the restaurant was busy but not completely full. We were seated almost immediately at a table right inside the door. Service was friendly, attentive, and timely enough but does tend on a little on the slower side.
Read moreWe shared everything so that we could try more of the expansive offerings they have: red lentil daal soup (split a bowl), samosas (two huge ones), vegan neatloaf, spinach artichoke ravioli, chocolate cake, and ginger chai ice cream sandwich. The staff was happy to cut stuff in half when needed (including the ice cream sandwich) to make sharing easier.
The final surprise was when we received the bill: having lived in SF long enough, I was expecting the total to be at least twice what it actually was. Each of us was in charge of covering $23 of the tab and deciding on how much tip to leave.
The only downside was that the ceiling fan above us were going much too hard, and my paper napkin kept flying off my lap.
Pros: half vegan menu, mostly modifiable, affordable, centrally located
Cons: overactive ceiling fans

Friendly, tasty, big serves, central - Edit
I really enjoyed the atmosphere in here, there was a really nice feel to all the staff.
Read moreI was hoping to to order from the 'lunch menu' I had seen online but I hadn't read properly that it is available on weekdays...so I will have to go back to try it next time!!
The bowl of dhal I had was absolutely delicious. Not huge so you may want to have something else as well. The other meals people were eating looked pretty big and what I saw looked really yummy.
Obviously I would prefer it if the place was totally vegan, or at least used less animal derived products and was clearer on the menu about what veganising something means...does it mean just taking out the dairy products, or does it mean substituting them with alternatives?
Pros: Friendly Staff, Good selection of choices, tasty and good serves, Central and clean
Cons: Could be more vegan focussed

I eat here all the time - Edit
For many years. So sorry I never wrote a review.
Read moreThe food is very good. Vegetarian with vegan options if requested. The Dal soup is the best!
Always get it. The neatloaf is available vegan - ask for the sweet sauce on the side. Many other menu items including salads and daily specials, but I go for the Dal every time. The people are friendly and the atmosphere is very relaxing. If you have the time, read some of the books by/about their guru. The location is a few blocks from the Symphony and Ballet/Opera.

THE best dal - Edit
The red lentil dal they serve daily is the best I've ever had. It is so good, it's difficult to order any of the other great stuff on the menu! I like getting a bowl with a salad, or the Red Lentil Bowl with the dal on top. I'm also a fan of the ravioli. I've not tried any of their fake meats -- I'm not opposed, I just usually get grilled tofu. It can get crowded, but if you are there before noon, you should be okay.
Read morePros: DAL, reasonably priced, Lots of vegan options
Cons: crowded, location is not the best
