So yum

This place has great ambiance! We went on Mother’s Day where they had a limited menu. I thought the crepe was super tasty and flavorful.

Delicious food!

This restaurant is fully vegan so you don’t have to worry about anything not being vegan here. I ordered the Crepe Florentine with a lavender kombucha. After, I had the Bread Pudding a la Mode for dessert. The crepe did not have much flavor. I could not taste the almond or coconut from the ricotta or pesto. The kombucha was ok and the dessert was delicious! The server who helped me was very kind and answered all my questions. Would totally go back!

Pros: Fully vegan, Great variety , Great customer service

Cons: Pricy , Hard to find parking

Made from scratch gourmet

Everything is delicious! It’s obvious it’s all made from scratch. Some of the appetizers are my favorites, especially the oyster mushroom calamari. Tomato bisque is not the best and still pretty good. Rosemary and potato Gnocchi topped with kale and shrooms are a delight. If you drink, get The Toad! It’s super yummy!

Pros: Made from scratch, Display/host local artists, Yummy food AND alcoholic drinks! (Not weak either)

Cons: Long waits possible (it can get busy…and prep time, Small space difficult for those in wheelchairs, Wish they were open later

Excellent!

I ordered two appetizers- Crispy Brussels Sprouts - coconut balsamic / 'feta' / pickled onion / balsamic glaze; and the Beet Lox Crostini. Both were excellent! I also loved the cheesecake!

Pros: Vegan deliciousness, Friendly staff

Cons: Street parking

Yummy vegan food in heart of Midtown

Artful midtown restaurant located upstairs of a converted home into 2 seperate restaurants.
Street parking only. Variety of seating options. Stairs or old elevator available.
Very midtown arts vibe. Good date night or lunch location but maybe too small for larger parties.
Menu was small but had variety.
Gnocci was ok. But the cauliflower fritters were amazing with good texture and yummy sauce. Service was good even though was busy.

Pros: Rotating menu, Friendly staff, All vegan menu

Cons: Stairs/elevator , No parking, Not great for large parties

Fettucine alla vodka>>>

Loved my food, service was a bit slow but that was definitely due to short staffing, on the pricier side but worth it for a nice meal out on occasion

Wow!

There are good vegan restaurants and there are great vegan restaurants. This is the latter. I had the crepe, it was abundant with layers of delicious texture, so filling, and I loved the use of chickpea to create an almost omelette consistency—lots of thought and obvious creativity put into these dishes. Thank you for the dining experience!

Our Go-to Restaurant!

Veg is our go-to restaurant for lunch, dinner and weekend brunch! There is nothing I wouldn’t recommend. Everything is delicious and the vibe is welcoming and eclectic. I highly recommend eating here!

A Vegan Must

What's not to like about this wonderful place? Everything from the ambience, first class service to world class melt in your mouth food offerings is making this my go-to spot. If you want the best IMO vegan spot in NorCal than you've must try this place. We started with Crispy Brussel Sprouts, a wonderful appetizer. The wife's entree was the Fettuccine alla Vodka and I had the Crepe Florentine the flavor, textures and seasonings were on point. We shared Aaron's fries and they were amazing. We both had the Raspberry Italian Soda excellent. And we shared a delicious New York Cheesecake with the best cherry compote ever.

Simply delightful

I came here for lunch while visiting an old friend in Sacramento. He’s a total carnivore. And we were both so pleased with the food ! They happened to have a 3-course special, which we both ordered. I would definitely come here again if I’m back in Sacramento.

Pros: Tasty food beautifully presented, Friendly server, Cozy and bright atmosphere

Always delicious!

Tastiest creative vegan dishes. I can't believe I haven't reviewed this restaurant before; I've been here many times, ordered lots of takeout during COVID lockdown - wanted to make sure they stayed in business. The latest visit, I ordered the bruschetta, curry bowl and a special - grilled mushrooms with mash potatoes and gravy. Fantastic! The freshest ingredients and fabulous flavors. The foodie omnivore that accompanied was quite impressed, couldn't believe that EVERYTHING was vegan. And the summer cocktail menu is delicious and refreshing. I had an old fashioned, and a sip of my companion's bourbon drink - something with strawberries.

Pros: Fresh ingredients, Fabulously seasoned, Full bar with refreshing cocktail specials

great vegan food in Sacramento

I recently went here with my beloved. It was amazing on all fronts.

We loved the food, great service, and enjoyed the ambiance.

We wished there was a Veg Cafe in the Bay Area for we would visit here once a week if that was the case.

I went with the Crepe Florentine that was very tasty and good size portion. My beloved had the Curry Bowl. She enjoyed it.

She went with a cocktail that she enjoyed and I had a ginger lemonade that was quite alright.

We also went with a side order of French fries that were stellar with a tasty side of vegan ranch.

For dessert we had a vegan ice cream and this was the least favorite of everything we ordered yet everything else was superb.

We will definitely be back next time we visit here!

Pros: great vegan food, nice ambience

Delicious food, cozy atmosphere

The food was so good! I had a chickpea flour crepe (so hard to find crepes that aren’t made with white flour!) stuffed with potatoes, vegan pesto and almond ricotta. The almond ricotta was delicious! It’s a cute, cozy place. Can’t wait to go back. Service was on the slow side but it wasn’t too bad.

Lunch in Midtown

Enjoyed our lunch of the daily special mushroom panini (fried instead of toasted) and chickpea crepe. I felt the crêpe was oily and the waitress immediately had it remade. The remake was much more favorable. Pesto was amazing in both dishes. Wait staff was friendly and made it a pleasant dining experience. Would definitely stop by again as there were so many menu items we wanted to try. They need a taster platter.

Great food, great service

Clean, warm atmosphere, they also have seating by the window overlooking the street below for people watching if you choose. The food was terrific; we ordered the tomato soup and Veg Fest Plate to share. The portion size of the Veg Fest Plate was definitely enough for at least 2 people.

Lovely place, wonderful staff

But plan accordingly, it can get busy fast with limited seating.

Our waitress was really sweet as well.

I tried a lot of different things:

Excellent fries, waffles, French toast, scrambled tofu. The sweet crepe was insanely good but definitely very very sweet (so beware).

Probably pass on the hash browns (get the potatoes or fries instead) but everything else was insanely good.
