So glad we found this place - Edit
Elisé is very inviting and her food is exceptional. Highly recommend this little gem. Lots of vegan options available from savory to sweet and the coffee and matcha are amazing.

Disappointed and Openly Shamed by the Owner - Edit
Bible verses and talk of prayer cover the walls & website, but basic decency was absent.
Read moreMy family looked forward to trying Elise’s Cuisine for weeks, for its advertised GF breakfast menu that seemed perfect for my daughter, who has celiac. She was so excited, having read the menu online in advance and even double checking it the night before - only to be met with shocking hostility from Elise, the owner.
She ordered the gf pancakes with gf chicken and, as always, specified “gluten-free” — something that’s second nature to anyone with a serious allergy. When the food arrived, the pancakes clearly weren’t gluten-free, and when she kindly asked about it Elise became immediately defensive and argued that she hadn’t asked for them that way.
Instead of handling the situation with understanding or grace, Elise grew increasingly agitated and said she’d have to charge for a new plate. My daughter, trying to be polite and understanding the struggles restaurants are facing, agreed to pay for a second meal.
But while ringing it up, Elise publicly scolded her at the register about “not reading the menu” and “ordering correctly.” It was humiliating and completely uncalled for.
My daughter, holding back tears, canceled the replacement order and sat silently while the rest of us ate. The "complimentary" GF pancakes Elise sent later were an empty gesture after such rudeness.
I will say that the food was good and the rest of the staff was kind. We support local businesses and understand that mistakes happen. But what matters most is how those mistakes are handled. Unfortunately, Elise’s reaction turned a hopeful visit into a hurtful experience.

Fantastic Local Brunch Spot - Edit
I’ve been several times and always discover really tasty options at Elise!
Read moreI’m fortunate enough to work near this area and go maybe once a week since I discovered it.
Every time I’ve gone the owner is present and is VERY kind. The pastry case is all vegan as well.
Overall I’ve had the grilled cheese and fig sandwich, the spicy seitan sandwich and the Jackfruit “pulled pork sandwich” overall the Jackfruit was my absolute favorite—one of the best sandwiches I’ve had actually.
I think with the two home made sides you get with a plate it’s actually a great value, especially when you cast taste the love in the food as well.
San Antonio Vegans and Vegetarians are very fortunate to have Elise in the community.
