Yum! - Edit
We have been a few times now and it’s just as the other reviews say. So many tasty options- we are quite fond of the ‘cheese’ fries, the many specials and the tasty array of juices. The staff is top notch delightful and it’s a fun eclectic setting that feels like home.

Amazing Find - Edit
What an amazing find, a wonderful vegan restaurant in downtown Wallingford! Worth getting off CT 15 of you are traveling thru Connecticut on Merritt Pkwy. I had a delicious vegan Greek salad with house made feta, along with fresh spring rolls. Generous portions. Full bar for dine-in. Nice staff. I will definitely be back.

Amazing Even as Takeout - Edit
Wow! How have we not been here before? Always looking for a midway food stop on our drive and this is the perfect place.
Read moreWe ordered takeout online, but arrived to find they’d never received the order. Super kind about it, and rushed to whip it up right away. Also very knowledgeable on ingredients to make me feel confident regarding allergies. It was fun seeing the action & energy in the kitchen - made me want to work there!
The chef threw in some extra nacho sauce 🙏 and we were on our way in no time. Our order included the Vermicelli Noodles and Kids Nachos. Love that the nachos weren’t assembled so as not to become soggy (I’d questioned my ordering them as takeout after the fact.) Both dishes were amazingly tasty (although eaten too fast due to hunger.)
Seeing other plates served up while waiting, looks like portions are hefty, and everything looked amazing. Not a super crammed dining area, so even when busy, I’d imagine carrying on a conversation is very doable.
Lovely staff, vibrant food, easy access from the highway. Parking behind building. Can’t wait to come back!
Pros: Lots of GF, Free parking behind building, Sweet & kind staff
Cons: Clover online ordering had incorrect details

We ordered the malai kofta and curry stew, both of which were delicious. All foods are made fresh and you can tell. The ambiance is excellent as well and very cozy.

Wholesome - Edit
I love this place! I wasn't too sure about it as the menu offerings seem like your standard American fare, but everything I've tried was so well done and fresh.
Read moreEverything was made from scratch and featured wholesome ingredients. Super tasty, satisfying, and guilt free. Portions are generous.
Bacon cheese fries were amazing. I couldn't tell if the bacon was made inhouse or if it was by Hooray Foods, but either way they were incredible. My favorite bite were the plantains that came with the taquitos. Malai kofta was alright, I felt like it was lacking body.
The interior is adorable and cozy (love the mismatched tables and chairs). Staff is incredibly kind and accommodating.
Pros: Delicious, Friendly staff, Generous portions

Wonderful Experience - Edit
I am so happy to say I finally made it out to Wallingford to check out Arles and Boggs after seeing so many delicious pictures and reviews online and it was fantastic! I loved the dining room space and decor and every employee we interacted with was so friendly. The food was the best part though! Nachos with french fries, crispy falafel, smooth hummus and delicious cauliflower tacos. I wish we could have ordered everything on the menu! Can't wait to come back next time I'm in the area!

We cleaned our plates! - Edit
Everything we got was amazing!!
Read moreOur waiter Bob was so friendly. Sonya visited our table throughout our meal to see if it was to our liking.
The portions are very good and so are the prices.
They have a good drink selection
We started with Malai Kofta Dippers with a mild Cashew Coconut Curry dipping sauce.
We order two entrees to share. We got the Latin Plate with Jackfruit Pernil, rice and beans, fried sweet plantains, and avocado. We also ordered the Mushroom Gyro. It comes with Cajun fries but For only $3 you can upgrade to specialty fries so we got their daily special fries; maple walnut topped sweet potato fries.
Everything was fresh, hot, and delicious! We ate every bite!
Because it is fresh and made to order, expect a little wait for your food, but we’ll worth it!!
Thanks Sonya and company!!

Cute spot for good food - Edit
1st time here. Amanda explained that they had been there since 2018. I was very excited when I saw the Latin plate option on the menu and knew I had to try this place out. I found parking around back (free). Not sure if there is additional parking available. Inviting atmosphere once inside. Lots of indoor seating available. I saw a full bar available also for cocktails in the evening (check the menu for more details … not 100% sure if that’s open).
Read moreI ordered loaded potato skins. I was told they were out of skins and instead of stoping there, Amanda quickly suggested a replacement (which I appreciated). I started with a Fresh Thai Spring Roll. Unusual because of the rice paper wrapping but it was good. The Malai Kofta dippers (my replacement order for the potato skins) were delicious and I will definitely get them again. The presentation on the Latin plate was on point. The jackfruit did look like “ropa vieja”. Flavor was good and also a plate I would enjoy repeating. Good portion size also. Amanda tried to upswell me on a dessert (also appreciated the effort).
Overall, very happy with this place and looking forward to having more dishes from here in the future.
Pros: Friendly and helpful employees, Many different vegan options, Good portion sizes

DELICIOUS VEGAN IN CT - Edit
Great vegan restaurant in CT! We enjoyed a delicious lunch with attentive service. The alcoholic and non alcoholic drink selections were robust. I had a wonderful unsweetened ice tea, my daughters enjoyed mango lime kombucha, and my husband had his first sassafras soda in 30 years! We shared delicious spring rolls as a starter - the rice paper variety vs. fried. My oldest and I shared the jackfruit taquitos. They were perfect - sometimes jackfruit is prepared too sweet; these were not. And the cheese sauce was so good. They came with fried plantains - reason enough to get the dish! My husband had the falafel sandwich. It was a very generous serving (all the dishes were) and well prepared. My youngest has the Greek kale salad. The vegan feta was so good. And she got a side of the maple tofu - worth the whole trip to this place! Amazing. We enjoyed our meal very much!
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options , Attentive service , Yummy food!

Delicious Food - Edit
My wife and I stopped here for lunch while traveling from NY to Boston. We were warmly greeted by Sonia, who could not have been more welcoming, friendly, and helpful. We shared spring rolls which were fresh and refreshing. Our entrees were delicious and filling; the portions were quite large, and everything was fresh. The ambience was cheerful, and the prices were reasonable. We may stop on our way back home!

Honestly one of my favorite vegan restaurants! - Edit
We came here at a long distance on a rainy day but the food was so worth the trek. I absolutely loved this meal, and I can’t wait to go back. Our server was super sweet and the food was so flavorful and it was wonderful to have foods of several different cuisines all prepared to perfection! This location hosts many vegan events and the owner is fastidious about cleanliness and her staff adhering to Covid guidelines. We had the malai kofta dippers, the mung bean vermicelli stir fry and loaded taquitos. Everything was incredible.
