lovely place for a date night. everything tasted so fresh, light, and flavorful. they are very aware of the vegan options and know exactly how each dish can be made vegan. my favorite dish was definitely the brussel sprouts, but we also got and loved the dan dan noodles (delicious, creamy, a little spicy) and curry chana (loved the coconut rice). They also have vegan pie and ice cream- we got the blue moon pie and I definitely recommend it.

Chefs kiss - Edit
Loved this dining experience. Maybe it was because I just spent 4 weeks in my van in the desert so this was my first real restaurant in awhile but everything was fantastic. We didn’t have reservations so we couldn’t get an outdoor seat (a Thursday around 6:30pm) but the inside was very chill and lounge-y.
Read moreIt is more like tapas so we ordered 5 things to share plus desert. It was a lot of food, it all came out very quickly but nicely staggard. They have vegan options on the menu but said some of the other dishes could be made vegan too by using oil instead of butter, etc. they were really knowledgeable. Plus! I think all their desserts were vegan but they don’t disclose that which I love because you’d never be able to tell.
Not the cheapest but I felt reasonable for the quality and experience
Chana with coconut rice - delicious!
Falafel (beet?) - excellent!
Brussel sprouts - nice cooked unlike the over crisped and fresh ones many restaurants serve these days
Spicy kale - this was the only thing that was meh for me. I didn’t detect any spicy, not very flavorful but nicely cooked and fresh
Harvest vegetables - really good with whatever sauce came with it. So yummy
Cherry pie and pear pie - omg. Incredible
Chocolate ice cream and vanilla ice cream - amazing
Cucumber cilantro lemonade - not really sweet, healthy and refreshing
Mezcal mule - partner said it was great
Pros: Food, Service, Ambiance
Cons: Kale?

Great options in 29 Palms - Edit
Delicious meal with plenty of vegan options. We had the Carribean Bowl, falafel and the Double. All very well done and great presentation in a cool vibe. Although two dishes would be enough for the two of us. Make a reservation in advance. #Veganuary

Chilled vibe and nice food (but pricey) - Edit
As others have pointed out the service is very relaxed. But rather than being a negative this is the pace and atmosphere of this place. Unhurried but attentive enough.
Read moreThe food is very good, tasty and fresh. The staff are well aware of what is vegan or can be made vegan.
It is certainly not cheap and that is the only real negative of the place.

Wonderful Food in the Desert - Edit
This place is gorgeous. My girlfriend and I both thought the food was excellent. The doubles was probably our favorite dish we got. The vegan pie was fantastic as well. Easily the best meal we had around Joshua Tree/29 Palms.

I don’t know why this place has such good reviews - Edit
This place has such good reviews, but i don’t really understand why : okay, the place is pretty, and the food is okay-good, but it’s not amazing. Plus, it’s really expensive when you see the portions : they are so small!! I guess they kinda wanted to be a chic place but that’s not it..And the worst is, they keep a BIRD in an awful little cage, and the bird sadly make all sorts of noises, it just broke my heart. I just don’t get how you can offer vegan food and keep a bird in a cage, to entertain yourself. I wanted to leave but we already got our drinks and ordered food. It was not a good moment. Oh and the service was really they really took their time to give us our plates, even though there wasn’t a lot of people.
Read morePros: pretty place , okay food
Cons: expensive for the minuscule portions , slow service , POOR BIRD IN A CAGE

Fantastic Experience - Edit
What a hidden gem. Had to wait for a table as we didn't reserve but had drinks in the bar. Music was fantastic from a secret daily changing playlist from the owner.
Read moreLots of vegan options and they are all delicious especially the brussel sprouts. Also their pinot noir is great!
Great service from our server Amanda! Would definately return!
5 stars - Book ahead online!
Pros: Loads of vegan options, Great atmosphere!, Great drinks menu

5 if-I-could - Edit
Despite a long wait (we rocked up at 8pm on a Friday night with no reso) the experience was fab.
Read moreThe bar was pumping out super vibey music and was serving drinks pretty quickly, so we chilled out whilst waiting row a table.
Once we sat down, service was good - we could make 75% of the menu vegan!
We had the Brussels (best thing on the menu!) market veg, chickpea curry and veggie burger and all of it was phenomenal. The flavours were amazing.
Advice: reserve a table ahead of time.
Pros: Lots of vegan-ifable options, Fun vibe, Friendly and vegan-aware staff
Cons: Slow to start if no reservation

Unique dining experience with vegan options - Edit
Read moreHappy cow only allow 5 stars for fully vegan and veg places. I would give this pls e 5 stars.
Charming outdoor seating. the menu has vegan options not seen at most restaurants. My favorite was the doubles. This dish, street food from Trinidad, was fried dough in a spiced chick pea curry. Another notable dish was the maple Brussels sprouts. The printed menu has vegan options and your server can tell you what other items can also be made vegan.
Knowledgeable and friendly staff make this a destination to seek out. #Veganuary
Pros: Knowledge and friendly staff , Skillfully prepared interesting vegan options , Outdoor seating. Occasional live entertainment
Cons: Small portions

Really cool spot - Edit
It’s a nice restaurant with an already limited menu, so to have a few plant based options on there was great. Veggie burger was out of this world. Vegan pie for desert was the best pie we ever had (comes from Boo’s bakery in Joshua tree)

Amazing!! A must!!! - Edit
This place was beyond delicious! We went without reservations on a Saturday night around 6:30pm. Outdoor seating was full with an hour and a half wait but we were able to snag a lounge spot inside at the bar (open seating) without waiting.
Read moreOur server was quick to greet us and let us know right away they were busy but would do his best to make us happy. We weren’t in a rush at all and enjoyed the music and vibe.
We ordered the doubles (BOMB)(side note they use the same oil to fry everything in), sautéed vegetables Brussel sprouts (no cheese), Dan Dan Noddles (no pork), & Vegan Pear Pie 🥧
So beyond yummy & worth the wait!
We will make a point to come back every time we’re in town!
Pros: Delicious , Good vibe, Good service
Cons: They use the same oil for all frying , Long wait/ reservations recommended

Doubles is amazing, but is the only option - Edit
This is a very "fancy" place for 29 and definitely caters to the LA crowd coming to Joshua Tree. The food takes forever and service is iffy but we come back because the doubles is one of our favorite dishes in the whole world. The menu recently changed and now that is pretty much the only vegan option though. Don't even think about coming without a reservation! Get the doubles and fries and you will be happy as long as you are OK waiting a long time for the food.
Read morePros: Doubles and fried are out of this world. , Cute atmosphere
Cons: Very few options , Food takes forever to come out , Service could be better

Lovely vibe, very good food... - Edit
With decent vegan options. We tried the avo toast (no cheese), veggie bowl, and “doubles”, all of which were good. We stopped by during COVID & were delighted to find outdoor seating with good distance between tables. The best part of this place is the atmosphere, in my opinion, but the food was good too!

Cons: Pricey

Ok - Edit
I called right before they closed. I ordered the vegan burger and the fried cauliflower. I was told It would take 30 minutes. I thought the vegan burger was good. Had flavor but it fell apart. Fried cauliflower wasn’t the best. I wish it had flavor like spiciness. Not sure if I will be back
Read moreCons: Pricy, Ok
