Excellent Lunch Options - Edit
Had lunch here while visiting town - split the Buddha bowl and nachos between two of us, both were great. Turmeric kombucha on tap was also tasty. Waitstaff was really friendly and welcoming. Central location was really walkable between the other sightseeing we were doing.

Delicious! - Edit
I ordered one of the specials, a flatbread with roasted veggies, tofu ricotta, mozzarella and arugula and it was so good. Would definitely go back!

Great variety and quality - Edit
Went there with friends last night for the first time. It is in a great area, there are a lot of options, and the food is great. I had the steak and potatoes, which was incredibly flavorful, with their own horseradish that was not too overpowering. The desserts are great. Really nice place for a dinner with friends or a date.

A must! - Edit
I’m always sure to have a meal at the Red Fern when I’m visiting Rochester. It’s exciting to see what the wing Wednesday flavors will be, I can’t not order the Mac n Chz nachos, and I can never decide between the roast bf bc I’m obsessed with horseradish mayo, or the ABLT bc it’s so yummy and I really love their bacon. Also, the ckn on the ckn Caesar is excellent. Basically everything is great here and I love it!

Decent Vegan Eats in Roc City - Edit
Cute corner location! Ordered the baked Mac and cheeze with seitan steak as well as the Buddha bowl and two cookies from their bakery section. The Mac was very tasty, the seitan steak was phenomenal. The Buddha bowl was just okay, could’ve used more tofu, kale, and beets for the price. We got a ginger oatmeal and a rainbow confetti cookie. The ginger oat was really delicious and chewy whereas the rainbow cookie was hard and not very flavored. Overall would definitely come back if we’re in the area again!!
Read morePros: All vegan everything, Options galore

Unexpectedly delicious - Edit
I ordered through Grubhub for our vegan family of 6. The food arrived surprisingly quickly and was absolutely delicious. I’m spoiled by living so close to NYC but The Red Fern is on par with NYC vegan establishments.

Tasty, decent options - Edit
The service was good despite it being very crowded when I went (pre-COVID). They have a relatively small menu (entree-wise) but the food was good.

Great food! - Edit
I got takeout. I ordered the compost plate and got the seitan steak as my protein. The seitan was fantastic, and very well-seasoned. The whole meal was great, it felt well-rounded from a nutritional standpoint and was very filling too. I really appreciate that Red Fern defaults to compostable materials for their takeout containers, incidentally!

Good food - Edit
It was good food. Unfortunately just take out. We had steak Bomb and lentil burger which was good. Green juice was delicious. Peanut butter banana was not good enough for me. Maybe just because I don’t like super sweet. I love cooking and I am very good with that that is why it is hard to impress me with food in the restaurant.

The singular best vegan restaurant - Edit
Having traveled pretty widely and eaten a lot of vegan food (from the cheap to the pricey), Red Fern remains my absolute favorite vegan restaurant around. A delicious selection of hearty meals (esp. for those who went vegan but still like “meaty”, “cheesy”, options), unparalleled desserts, and kind staff. I have driven 1.5 hours roundtrip before just to eat a Steak Bomb sandwich. Go—you will not be disappointed!
