Super Good Food and a Cool Vibe - Edit
We really enjoyed the food we had here. The nachos were *superb* (the chips were nice and hearty so they didn’t get soggy even though we did takeout and the toppings were really tasty) and the quesadilla and club sandwich were both delicious (the bread was particularly nice on the sandwich). The brownie-cookie bar was decadent and made just right. I’m already looking forward to our next visit and planning what else to try! Definitely give this place a try!!

Amazing Vegan Comfort Good - Edit
This was is hands down the coolest vegan restaurant I’ve ever been to. The food was delicious and the service was good. Highly recommend. Great portion sizes. I had the Nachos and Punk Rock Club, both were beyond my expectations. The chips on the nachos were a little tiny bit stale but that is the only thing I could even possibly find to mention as an opportunity for improvement. The decor is fun, I love pop punk and the nostalgia was real! Am definitely looking forward to going back very soon. 🎸❤️🎸

Punk Rock Vegan Junk Food - Edit
I was beyond excited to finally get to cruise by today, while it was a Friday I appreciated there wasn’t a huge crowd so I could take my time. It’s a order/pay first then select your seating establishment. I ate outside as they have tables.
Read moreI ordered way too much, The Vanilla Straight Edge Shake. Yum. The Grilled Cheeze. And a DIY pizza (where I just added some veggies and chk’n). I’ll have to try this place again, since I think they can totally do better - while I devoured the grilled cheese (as it was my first meal of the day) the gooey cheese felt super weird to me.
I don’t know, textures are huge… so it may have just been me. I had to take the pizza to go because I couldn’t finish it all. The sXe milkshake was delicious, and on my way out I picked up a rad journal/zine and takeaway box.
Bonus points for ample parking - I got VIP right next to the building. Personnel was friendly and patient with me while I decided.

Pros: RAD vibe, decor, and music!, Friendly personnel/staff, Delicious sXe Shake (YUM)
Cons: Spinach Not Available (for DIY Pizza)

Amazing vegan tacos - Edit
I was here once before and was served a sandwich that was mostly bread, so I was jealous of the people who were eating the amazing looking tacos. This time I lucked out by going during happy hour (Tues-Fr 2-5pm) when the tacos are $1 off. I ordered all 3 versions, my favorite the Carne a Nada one was really flavorful and delicious and the Chik'n one was also very good. I didn't care much for the Jackfruit one but am willing to give it another try 😄.

Sick vegan junk food 🤘 - Edit
My stomach is begging me to order more. Great variety of delicious vegan junk food. Bring your Omni friends. If they don’t like it, they’re hating.
Read moreFavorito’s: BBQ chicken pizza, Oki-Dawg, Desmond Decker, Nardcorn (elote). Don’t forget to grab yourself a little shakey shake, a little pricey but it will make you want to get up and dance

Sometimes you just need to be a Fatty Vegan. - Edit
When I need some good ‘ol comfort food, this is my jam! I’m a big fan of their Cheese Pizza and the Alkaline Fritos (basically a pepperbelly… if you’ve had one at a high school football game).
Read moreAnd their Thick Ass Stout adult boozy milkshake is bomb! And if you need desert - get the Awesome Cookies and Brownie (a.k.a. slutty brownie). #Veganuary

Perfect blend of atmosphere and food collide at Fatty Vegan. Centered around punk rock, everything is branded on point, and who knows, you may even run into your favorite punk musician there. They also have great live events in the parking lot. Highly recommend for a fun time

Yummy and great service - Edit
It was a tall order at a reastauant called Fatty Vegan, but they accommodated my request for an oil free meal by dressing their salad in mashed avocado and lemon juice. Hubby loved the first item on on the menu, a bratwurst sandwich with sauerkraut. His verdict? Delectable! Good bread, fresh ingredients, really nice potato salad on the side, firm chunks well cooked and delicious. The presentation was fantastic, for both of our orders.. My only complaint would be few oil free options.

Cons: Lack of oil free options

Strip Mall Vegan - Edit
You would never know that in the middle of a small strip mall you'd find such fantastic vegan food! The punk decor is fun and the dishes are named in tribute to punk music. We tried the taco trio. You have your choice of steak, pulled pork or chicken, all vegan of course. We tried one of each! All amazing! It comes with a very tasty elote that completes the meal perfectly. Then we tried the beyond sausage. My choice was the "I wanna be your dog" that was topped with marinara sauce, grilled onions and peppers all in a hoagie bun. Even the Salad Days is wonderful. It came with your choice of vegan meat, romaine lettuce, black beans, guacamole, salsa and onions topped with tortilla strips. Finally, the brownie for dessert was delicious. All reasons for us to return more and more to try more things on their menu. Love this place!

Pretty good stuff - Edit
I had the “I wanna be your dawg” on a GF bun. It was a Beyond sausage and A LOT of bread. The sauce and toppings were sparse - definitely needed some more sauce for the amount of bread. The raspberry shake was pretty dang good!

Very good vegan junk food - Edit
We had a Reuben and the closest thing to a salad they offer. All very good, and the owners are very friendly. But beware! Total junk food.

Punk & Funk Vibe - Edit
This is a small restaurant, yet packs a large punch in personality & uniqueness.
Read moreI had the "Ruben So Ho" which was SO big (how big was it??) it lasted four meals! The sauce had a taste I had never experienced before and I loved it.
The staff were helpful and friendly.
They have indoor and outdoor dining. They play punk music indoor so you get the full impact of the theme of the restaurant.
I work for HappyCow so I gave them one of our 5-star excellent review window decals!
Worth a trip!!

So worth it. - Edit
I ordered a raspberry shake, weekend nachos, and a small side of nardcorn (elote). Everything was delicious. There is a varied menu (including a weekend brunch) but I was craving nachos, and these did not disappoint! The cheese sauce has an unique flavor that strays from traditional vegan cheese options. Also, the raspberry shake, hit the spot! Went back for Sunday brunch- biscuits and gravy are on point.

“Pretty...pretty...good.”-Larry David - Edit
Order the Spicy Fatty Supreme; though a really tasty pizza, fell short on the toppings department, if I had to describe it in a word: skimped. Great pizza pie, please give me a little more toppings on the pizza.

Hopefully things get better - Edit
I really wanted to love this place. I mean, a punk rock vegan joint? Pretty cool concept but my experience missed the mark. Counter person was helpful in navigating the menu; however, my pizza came out half burned. I could smell it when they brought it out to me. It wasn’t that busy, I feel the cook knew and was just being lazy. My Oreo shake was really good. Couple sat down right next to me and were vaping the entire time, totally grossed me out and I threw everything away. Hoping to try something else and sit in my damn car this time away from idiots.
Read moreI will say they have the best vegan ranch I have tried. I added an extra star for that damn ranch! They should bottle and sell it! ❤️

A fair option - Edit
It’s exactly as advertised, vegan junk food. Nothing too unique or special. I had the beyond sausage.
