Healthy and Hearty

See this sign from the freeway regularly and finally decided to stop in during my commute
I love how simply yet delicious this place is
Lots of tofu, beans, and lentil dishes; my favorite! Spiced beautifully
I ordered the basil chickpeas with brown rice and a side salad. They also had sugar free pumpkin muffins which were just so good!!

Pros: Healthy, Simple, Delicious

Always a good choice

We first tried this vegan restaurant in the spring of 2020. It was a pleasant surprise then and we remembered it when we had to come back to California. Tried it again yesterday 9-20-21, and discovered new dishes that were equally as delicious and satisfying as our first encounter. Ate there again today as we were leaving the state again, and tried two different dishes. They were both excellent. This makes this restaurant one to always return to, as we have never been disappointed.

Good and healthy

Good selection of items on menu. I had the Caribbean plate with black eyed peas and plantains. Beware... you will need to season your food to liking because I think the food is prepared with no salt for health reasons.

Fresh, unique, and healthy

I got the roti wrap and it was excellent. Lots of options that you don’t really see often makes this a nice restaurant to visit if you’re tired of the same stuff.

Delicious healthy food

The food is very flavorful and good. There weren't a lot of selections, but hopefully that will improve with time since they are still new and working out the kinks of a new restaurant. I got tofu and black beans, which was much more flavorful than I expected! I will definitely be back!

Update: This is now one of my favorite restaurants!! The food is so flavorful and delicious. The servings are generous and I always feel satisfied!! This is a great place!!

Delicious healthy plant-based menu

Had a lovely meal here with the family. Spent some time talking to the owner, who is trained as a dietician. The menu is all whole-foods plant based, not utilizing mock meats. The sweet and sour tofu was delicious and creamy. The gluten free Roti wrap was fantastic as you don’t often find Roti on the West Coast and certainly not GF. Will look forward to the new menu being rolled out soon!

Pros: All vegan, Unique options including African and West Indies

Covid treat!

Tired of cooking at home during the covid19 crisis and this place hit the spot. Ordered the gorilla burger and the ipa agwa (plantains and black eyed peas). O.M.G. Definitely will come back to try the rest of the menu.

Pros: Vegan only

I wish I had read your review before I wasted my family's time trying to eat here. Very disappointing and un clean. I'd bet money that they "positive reviews" here are placed by employees or the owner.

Pleasant Find

Restaurant is tucked into a small shopping center. Shopping center is not clean, but the restaurant is spotless! Had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Virginia, who explained her philosophy and the opening of her restaurant. Very impressed that she is a nutritionist that took her knowledge and created a healthy eating experience. Love the fact that it is 100% plant food-based and does not have any gluten or processed food. Wish we lived closer to experience the seminars that they offer along with cooking classes. Check out her website!

Pros: 100% plant-based, Affordable, Cleanliness and friendliness

A Great Find!

The food is prepared when you order it with fresh ingredients. If you are in a hurry, call in your order or you can order online. Great healthy choices. The owner takes time to discuss all options and answers all your questions. She makes her food with love!
Definitely give it a try!

Pros: Fresh healthy ingredients, Great choices, Comfortable seating

Good food, needs TLC

The food is good and not overpriced but the inside feels sterile and boring. It needs some ambiance and TLC.

Excellent restaurant and food!

Finally an excellent VEGAN choice for Loma Linda and Redlands! This place cooks true, real, fresh, DELICIOUS, Healthy vegan.

This is not a fast food restaurant. This is a restaurant to order, sit and enjoy good conversation with a friend or loved one and wait for the freshly-made food to be served to you. I took my Mom here today and it was wonderful and Mom loved it too.

Such a gem of a place!

No fake meat, no fake cheese

Visited a few times and love it. Ordered The curried tofu platter. Greens, rice, the best black beans I have ever had and of course the curry tofu. Nice spice, and if you are a runner or cyclist, this will meet your protein needs. I’ll give it 4 stars for now, but if the next few dishes are like the first 4 it goes to five stars.

Consistent Excellence

THE BEST vegan food in the Inland Empire. Do yourself a favor and come to this restaurant. If you're on the go or want to stay home, they offer grub hub pickup and delivery (and doordash)! This is my favorite lunch spot because I can get in and out on my lunch break. Not only does everything taste delicious but you feel great after eating it too (unlike fast food restaurants). The owner personally introduced herself to me, and she is one of the nicest people I've ever met (and very knowledgeable about vegan nutrition)! With consistent excellence, they have earned themselves a repeat customer

Pros: food, portions, service

Cons: none, none, none

Great lunch!

Items for combo plate described before selection. I had garbanzo bean entree, my husband sweet and sour tofu. Both very good. Sides of quinoa, black eyed peas and scrambled tofu. Delish!

Pros: Lots of tasty vegan options, good value , Comfort food quality—loved the black-eyed peas, Casual, friendly environment

Cons: None

vegan enchiladas

I was happy to find a completely vegan restaurant in Loma Linda. Everything they make is with whole foods. I ordered their vegan enchiladas and was underwhelmed. It contained only kidney beans and a whole lot of garlic from what I gather because the aftertaste was left in my mouth for hours. Meh, I probably won't be going back.

Pros: all vegan, whole foods

Cons: limited menu, recipes lack creativity

Highly recommend

A great eatery, everything we had was delicious! Virginia and her team do such a great job. It’s so hard deciding as everything is so tasty. Highly recommend the combo plate as we can try a main and three sides!

Pros: Completely vegan , All homemade in her kitchen, So many options

Cons: Nothing
