Great good, wish I lived closer - Edit
I had the brisket burger with mac and cheese (I just can't pass up mac and cheese). It came on a pretzel bun (love pretzel buns) full of tasty toppings. So much so that at the end it almost became a knife and fork affair. Tray beverage options, many of which are no sugar.

Great Bowl - Edit
I ordered the Chimichurri Steak Bowl and an oatmeal cream pie. I’ve had their burgers at another location, but I’m glad I tried something different. The staff was super friendly and the food was delicious.

Must Visit! Delicious Variety - Edit
Love the variety of vegan options. You can also buy vegan meat by the pound to go. This is a chain with multiple locations. They make their own vegan meats. I’ve got the cookbook which is amazing and they also have reward program. During holiday season, I always buy the $100 gift card and get $20 card for free which is an awesome deal. Friendly staff.
Read moreThai Beef Bowl for $13.75. The seitan was fresh and delicious
Chikin vegan tenders for $7.50
Large and filling. Way more fresh and tasty than vegan meat from the grocery store. The sauce is made from scratch & liked both the hot buffalo sauce & ranch
The drinks are made from scratch. My favorite is the lavender lemonade.
Summer Seasonal Items:
Backyard BBQ Bowl - Your choice of plant-based bbq. pork or crispy cauliflower, Mac and cheese, Southern coleslaw, braised kale. Yummy!! I really loved this meal.
Cool chick sandwich- plant-based chicken salad with celery, onion, parsley, and mayo, play-based bacon, lettuce, sourdough bread.

Cheesecake! - Edit
Okay, so this is not a complete review because I only ordered the strawberry and key lime cheesecake but… oh my gosh. I have had my fair share of vegan cheesecake from both stores and homemade, but these are really good. The strawberry was my favorite, while my boyfriend liked the key lime. Super fluffy with a tasty crust. I will update next time I try real food!

My go to. - Edit
My go to whether I’m at work weekends or nights and can’t figure out what to make. First place I found that was 100% plant based when I changed over to the green side.

Cozy flavors fast food style! - Edit
I love the food and the ppl working here!!
Read moreBest vegan fast food with healthy or deep fried options 😊
They are always friendly and food is always ready in 10mins!!
They also serve beer and wine, and some indulgent desserts!!
Orange cauliflower, shawarma bowl and wrap, Nashville hot burger are my favorite!! Also ask about their soup of the day or monthly specials!!
They have an app and cash reward system!! So practically we get food for free about every fifth time!
Also check out their cookbook, and there is a macro/ingredient PDF online!
Pros: All vegan menu, on budget!!!, Quick and friendly service (in person/on phone), Fun and friendly ambience

Good fast food - Edit
I’m not the biggest fast food fan but I decided to try this place since it’s fully vegan! The double cheeseburger was quite good and so was the cauliflower wings, the buddha bowl as well as the wraps! Nice interior and not too crowded

Junk food was never this comforting! :) - Edit
I recently was down in this area with family. Ordered dinner delivery for everyone. (I was the only vegan so I ordered my food from Native Foods via UberEats.)
Read moreI got the "chicken, bacon, avo club" (nut-free) - crunchy, herb-crusted made-with-plants chicken, seitan bacon, avocado, chipotle sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, and red onions. Served on a toasted sandwich roll. I chose fries as my side.
This burger was beyond bountiful & vivacious! The thing that pulled it over the edge delish was the sauce!!! Next time I will order more of it!!
The service was super quick also!! A win-win situation!!

Love Native Foods - Edit
I first found Native Foods in Palm Springs while I was on a business trip. Loved the food there and wished they had one in Northern California. Now I’m in San Diego on business and was so happy to see there’s a Native Foods here and only 2 miles from my hotel! Had the cauliflower chickpea shawarma bowl, super delicious! The staff were very friendly too.

Can't Live Without! - Edit
I cannot live without Native Foods! I eat here several times a month - I just wish it were closer to my apartment! The food is always amazing and I love that they vary the menu a bit. Staff is friendly and service is usually quick. Everything I've ever tried has been delicious (wraps, burgers, sandwiches) and the beverages are great too. Pro tip: try mixing the lavender lemonade and blueberry hibiscus iced tea. Yum! They do have a couple of beer and wine offerings too. I recommend using the Native Foods app -- a great rewards program.
