After a few days eating around Toronto, our meal at Urban Herbivore was our absolute favorite! So fresh, refreshing and great flavor combinations.

Good salads

Cute space and tried their salads since it's listed on the menu as their specialty. They were packed with nutritious things and very yummy!

Very Good Food & Atmosphere

I had a custom salad bowl. Had lots of good options to choose from. It’s reasonably priced. Great location & nice green atmosphere. Highly recommend to try it out!

Such a good burger!

The menu is varied and there is something for everyone. Food was done quick. Restaurant is cozy and you get free water. Price is very reasonable and the quality of the food is great! The side to the burger i got was a very hearty salad with both carrots and beetroot. If you come here you won't regret it, and you certainty won't leave hungry!

Bowls from Heaven

What I love about this place is that they’ve got four delicious bowls on their menu but then the option to create your own through seemingly endless customization. It’s hearty, delicious,filling and affordable. One of my favorite fast food options in the city

Pros: All plant based, Affordable, Fast

Top notch for value

At the prices of the bowls here (no sandwiches were had), the amount of food you get is pretty stupendous. My friend had the rhino which was a huge thing of greens and some protein, which looked pretty filling. Looked like a pretty standard bowl however. My curry though was like a bottomless pit of hearty goodness. The clerk even switched out the tofu for my much preferred tempeh at no extra cost!

Only downside to the place I felt was the openness of the kitchen, which created a rather noisy environment

Good!

I stopped by for breakfast before Vegfest and I was quite impressed with this place. I had the moroccan soup, which was both tasty and healthy. Plus, the portions are huge!

Pros: tasty food, friendly staff, clean

no tan mal

Pedí un sándwich de tempe y la verdad las verduras sabían un poco raro, incluyendo el aguacate, tenía bastante pero sabía medio mal...

Pros: tenían baño, restaurante limpio y la zona muy bien

Cons: caro para el sabor

Incredible high protein meal

Lovely location, delicious cruelty free food.
A high protein meal combo, not custom made, is not an easy find. If u're looking for that go for the Rhino GF.
Pretty big portions.

Pros: Lovely place, Excellent food, Big portions

yummy scone, no coffee

Went there in the morning in the hope for breakfast as this was the only veg* place around that was open at 9. To my surprise there was no coffee at all...I took a scone to go and had my coffee somewhere else.. the scone was good, the atmosphere soso; not sure if I'd give it a second chance..

Pros: scones was good, location

Cons: no coffee, service could be friendlier

Delicious and unique

I loved that you could add a smoothie or dessert to your entrée to make it a "combo." Smoothie and chickpea Caesar salad sandwich were both delicious. There isn't much seating, but we sat at the bar window and got to people watch in the Kensington neighborhood, so it wasn't a bad thing.

A Mandatory Toronto Stop

UH has a bunch of great (and generally healthy) options. I'm partial to their snacks - muffins, cookies, etc. which are great to grab and go since the place is a tad small. The offer some great soups and sandwiches too, though they aren't the cheapest. If you're in TO this is definitely worth a stop, plus it's not far from a bunch of other vegan places (like Bunner's Bake shop)

Pros: Great desserts, Healthy options

Cons: Small restaurant

Good but don't like the atmosphere

Sandwiches are really good (ginger tempeh is my favorite). I've been there many times at different time of the day and I always feel like the staff don't like their job. No smiles, serious face, impatient, etc. The location is really good in a beautiful street.

Pros: Tasty food and variety , Gluten free option

Cons: Expensive, Not friendly staff
