Love this place!

We always stop here when we are in Anchorage. I love all their vegan dishes but the star of the show for me is the salad and the Cesar and Tarragon spirulina dressings (I always get 1 of each) *swoon*
A bit bummed they removed the pizza and wheat grass shots from the menu. The smoothies and juices are awesome though!

Tried twice but so bland

I tried really hard to like this place but the food was so bland. They need to season better!

Really good and tons of vegan options

I loved how many vegan options there were (they’re well-labeled) and that some of the non-vegan options you could request to veganize. It’s a bit pricey but really tasty food! I got the vegan Reuben with a side of soup and my friends got the Thai tempeh bowl and vegan nachos, everything was great! This place is a solid option for a lighter/healthier meal.

Pros: Chill vibes, Healthy/light food

Cons: Pricey

Oasis As Stated

They have so many vegan options! I had the avocado and veggie sandwiches. The pizza and bowls all look amazing and I will definitely go back. They also have a ton of juices. I didn’t get to try them because the juice bar was closed when I got there so plan ahead with your timing if you want juice. Definitely recommend checking this oasis out!

Wonderful find

Fresh wheat grass juice!!!
Many vegan choices.
Some unusual choices.
I had the tempeh Ruben and it was packed with homemade sauerkraut, cheese, onion, sauce. It was very satisfying and very tasty. There was black bean soup and sweet potato soup and both were excellent.

Pros: Two kinds of wonderful soup, Half the menu was vegan, Lovely sweet waitress

Cons: Not a fan of veganaise , Not a fan of daiya cheese

Healthy vegan options

I ordered the Vegan High Protein Bowl and roasted brussels and cauliflower and both were delicious. Couldn't finish everything so took the rest home. Would definitely be back to try other items.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Friendly service

Order smart

First off, Organic Oasis probably boasts the most vegan options in all of Anchorage. So big plus there.

Secondly, most of their dishes are just okay.

What's not okay is their vegan supreme pizza... It is amazing. Best pizza crust I've had, vegan or non.
The high protein wrap is also a strong contendor.
The daily special soups are either really good or only okay. Personal favorite of mine is the lemon kale, which I ordered several additional orders to take home.

Also they got tempeh and tofu and a house made vegan patty which I found pretty unique. I am not a fan of all these new faux meats, so I welcome these options.

Don’t recommend this place!

Ordered a vegan burger and it was horrible. The bun was very chewy and the flavor of the entire thing was horrible.

Cons: Expensive

Decent at Best

I really wanted to love this place. The soup was bland and the sandwich was mediocre at best. They do offer smoothies and wheatgrass, which is a plus.

Pros: Fair amount of options on the menu

Cons: Pricey and bland

Makes me feel so good

Organic Oasis always makes me feel like I'm treating myself like I should. Really nice homemade items including vegan soups, burgers, gluten free bread, salsa, etc.

Love it.

okay

The salad wasn't good and miso soup, terrible. The vegan burger was okay. Atmosphere a little quirky and too quiet but maybe that's because we ate early ...

Pros: good vegan chocolate selection

Cons: food not the best

I used to love this place but too many incidents... It is better than eating meat though.

Pros: music, location and parking is usually easy

Cons: slow service, does not fix mistakes/make it right

go-to place for vegan options

There are a wide variety of vegan options and they have the BEST vegan chocolate cake that I have ever had. Nice cozy environment with live music on occasion.

thank you for being

My family ate here on our last day in Anchorage. It was too bad it took us so long to find it as we would have made another visit. Fresh food, simple and tasty.

Excellent healthy vegan food!

I ate at Organic Oasis last night, and was pleased to see the well-marked vegan options abound on the menu and specials. I ate the soup and salad with Ceasar-style dressing, and it was so filling and delicious! The soup I chose was a Tempeh Mulligatawny, and the small-looking cup filled me up. Even though I was busting at the seams, I ordered the vegan gluten free chocolate cake special, and it was densely delicious and worth the extra expansion of my belly (I took some to go). There was a sweet trio of instrumentalists playing on the stage, and the ambiance was relaxing. Families, people on dates, and single patrons sitting at the bar all seemed to enjoy the experience. I will return ASAP!

Pros: Healthy, delicious options, Many vegan choices, Excellent relaxing ambiance

Cons: Meat on the menu

Good food; great ambiance!

I've just read the previous reviews and am surprised at the overall negative comments. My friend and I are from out of town and I'm always looking for vegan restaurants, or at least vegetarian in parts of the country such as Alaska, where organic food is a blessing to find. I am raw vegan at home, but must sometimes settle for vegetarian at best, depending on the locations. Regardless, my friend eats a Standard American Diet and was honoring me by agreeing to try a place that I might be able to eat. Believe it or not, we were both so impressed we're going back Thursday nite before we leave town! The restaurant is open Mondays until 6pm and Tues. thru Sat. until 9pm. I was pleasantly satiated with a cup of coconut/potato/curry soup; spinach/artichoke dip with small pieces of flat bread; hot tea with a wonderful mix of herbs complete with metal tea strainer on top of a huge mug with a small plate covering it to steep the herbs for at least 5 minutes (according to the waitress). For main course I enjoyed a vegan wrap that was so large I couldn't eat it all, so I carried home leftovers for lunch the next day! All this, while we were seated near the stage where pleasant dinner music was being played by a wonderful guitarist. The seating area decor is darker wood with pleasantly calm surroundings; similar to a small restaurant/lounge. I wanted a wheatgrass shot, but the waitress had to apologize as someone didn't grow their last batch of wheatgrass properly and the current batch wasn't tall enough yet. The floor, tables, dishes and everything looked nice and clean. There is a small bar in the corner where they serve wines with a few bar stools as well. They also have a vegan carrot cake which my SAD friend said was scrumptious! Very filling meal with leftovers and I walked out after paying approx. $30 for my meal and appetizer for the both of us. Very similar to the type of prices in like restaurants in Seattle, serving up good organic food, handmade and not processed! I'm surprised by some who expect something exceptional for little to nothing! Just a difference in perspective I suppose! In summary . . . I was pleased! Hope the owners decide to gradually move into stricly vegetarian/vegan fare!

Pros: food tastes good, numerous choices, atmosphere

Cons: little difficult to find, away from street, not strictly veg/vegan

Best Vegetarian Restaurant in Alaska

Alaska does not have much to offer in the way of vegetarian-friendly cuisine, so this restaurant is a welcome surprise in Anchorage!
Their food is very fresh. The portion sizes are very generous.
And when a smoothie was not on the menu that I wanted, they custom made it for me.
In my travels to Anchorage, Organic Oasis was a MUST STOP for me!

really wanted to like it

We kept going back to this place again and again, because it was the only almost vegetarian place to eat in all of Anchorage. But, we were disappointed every time. Flavors are bland. In an attempt to be so hippy, I feel they really missed the boat when it comes to good food. I can only speak for the vegetarian dishes, maybe the meat dishes are better. And it's overpriced. too.

Pros: healthy cuisine

Cons: overpriced, tasteless
