Disappointing - barely a vegan option

Somewhere I saw they have a separate vegan menu. They don't. When I asked what vegan options they have, I was told "Really the only thing we have is a black bean burger without the aioli" and she said she could make sure the roasted potatoes don't come with butter on them.

The black bean burger was bland and mushy & it didn't look house made. The potatoes were pretty greasy & my husband thinks they did have butter on them. I think it was oil. I had a few but just too oily for my taste.

I was really hungry too. It was after 2PM & I hadn't eaten anything yet so I ate enough of the burger just to make the hunger pain go away.

We sat at the bar after we got tired of waiting to be seated (2 of us) and soon the bar was filled up on all sides & large parties were coming into the restaurant. Only 1 bartender for the whole place and we waited for a good 10 minutes before she said anything to us. She was nice though and could've used some help. I was happy she knew what the word vegan meant.

Pros: Cute place, good vibe

Cons: Only 1 vegan option, Seemed short staffed

Black bean burger and garden of life wrap

The service was very good. The vegan options were a plant-based sushi roll, a black bean burger from which you could remove the aïoli, salads, and a wrap from which you could remove the cheese called the garden of life wrap. I personally got the black bean burger with some fries. Both things were just OK to me. I would not go back there specifically to have them. My friend got the garden of life wrap which is a hot handheld wrap with a variety of veggies in it. Remove the cheese and you made it vegan. It also has some kind of lemon vinaigrette on it. She thought it was good. If I went back there again I would get that wrap instead.

Fun place!

Vegan options mostly are a black bean burger and a nice big build -your-own salad section (including the black bean burger as a protein option). Atmosphere was very fun, multiple game rooms, TV's with various sports playing, a full bar, restaurant seating, and a patio. Staff were friendly and accommodating to us bringing our dog on the patio. Great place! If I lived nearby, I'd be a regular.

No real vegan choices

Perhaps a lot has changed for this restaurant recently. Other than making a giant salad, and modifying an only ok black bean burger, there was nothing else vegan. It also had a mildly offensive sign stating, in summation, that although they make most things in house and are happy to support food allergies, food preferences are not taken as kindly.

Great spot w/ vegan options

Their menu surprisingly has quite a few vegan options. Dog friendly patio. #Veganuary
