Go to option for yummy vegan food - Edit
Great in town location! Some very casual outdoor and indoor seating. Good to have a safe place for vegan fare. I had the tofu scramble and asked for Ezekiel toast - it was delicious.

Delicious; we are so lucky to have this in Ridgefield! - Edit
You can tell whoever opened Organika knows how to make delicious vegan food. Favorites are definitely the Italian combo pizza, quesadilla, and Buffalo cauliflower wrap.
Read moreA bit expensive for the portion sizes, but worth it. The only things I haven’t liked have all been the ready-made items (like their pasta salads, which are under seasoned).
Overall it’s an excellent spot for vegans passing through Ridgefield.
Pros: Variety of options (including gluten free)
Cons: Pricey, The ready-bought foods have been meh.

Tasty food - Edit
Cute and modern interior. Full range of vegetarian options (many vegan options as well, some products include honey). Staff is knowledgeable about the food and it's ingredients. I had the meatball sandwich and an iced coffee. Both were tasty and came out quickly

high quality fast food without the high prices - Edit
Organika is an oasis amid all the conventional eateries in cutesy Ridgefield, and am thankful to have found it there. Otherwise, there are no totally vegan or vegetarian places to eat in all of Danbury or Norwalk, which I mention because tiny Ridgefield is roughly midway between those two very large cities.

They serve a wholesome and organic vegan version of fast food, complete with plastic dinnerware and dishes, whether you eat in or takeout. Indoors is cozy but cramped, or you can sit outdoors along its sidewalk on their shaky chairs at their tiny tables. The food is moderately priced, especially for all organic. The nutritionally quality is high, and the taste is appealing. I recommend the Nourish Bowl for its portobello “meatballs.” The vegetable lasagna is good, too, but looked nothing like its photo illustration, instead more like a goulash. The all-vegetable juices are great and also moderately priced.

My only disappointment is the cutesy town of Ridgefield. We visited for the Aldrich Art Museum, just down the street, located even on the same side of the street, a museum worth visiting, regardless what big bad art might be on exhibit. I wonder what attracted the throngs of other people to Ridgefield. The town was swarming with car traffic and foot traffic, even though it was mid-afternoon on a mid-weekday in mid-April, not the weekend and not the summer. Forget about street parking, and we were lucky to find a faraway space in the huge parking lot behind its building.
.
Seated on the sidewalk amid all the distractions around us, we were hard pressed to conduct a meaningful conversation, not to mention to pay attention to the food. (So eat indoors, or do takeout. After all, it’s all already packed to go.) The fire department is just around the block, and twice their firetrucks came howling by. Moronic car drivers twice honked their horns as greetings to pedestrians they knew. I am reminded of the quip, “No one goes there anymore, it’s too crowded.” I was glad to find Organika in Ridgefield, but was not glad to find myself in tiny Ridgefield, as crowded with tourists as a beach resort on a hot summer Sunday. I know, I know, I was just a tourist too, so who am I to complain?
Pros: all organic, all vegan (except for honey)
Cons: it's in Ridgefield (stay outta Ridgefield)

This place is awesome. - Edit
As a new vegan I am always looking to learn what foods I’ve been missing out on, so I’m so grateful I found this place. It’s a gem in an area that doesn’t have many (or really any?) fully vegan restaurant options. I came in here for the fresh juices and the jackfruit tacos and left with a delicious falafel/tabouleh salad, two gluten free pastas, creamy broccoli soup, and avocado chocolate mousse. Good cozy vibes and friendly staff as well, will definitely be back!
