vegan food truck in Eugene

Viva! Vegetarain Grill is a wonderful all vegan food truck in Eugene. Friendly staff works here. I went with the tempeh burrito. This comes with grilled tempeh, housemaid organic chili, cilantro-lime slaw, salsa, and a vegan cheese sauce all wrapped in a large whole wheat flour tortilla.

I thoroughly enjoyed the burrito. It hit the spot!

They have some outdoor seating near the food truck. Other options on the menu include housemate chili, falafel, vegan cheesesteak, tempeh tacos, sweet potato fries, polish soy sage, and several more options.

Recommended if in Eugene to stop and get a bite.

it's fine

I've been there several times because their menu offerings are quite vast. However, everything I've gotten has just been ok. Usually pretty dry. But they have ice cream that's pretty darn good!

Pros: wide variety of menu options, soft serve

Cons: dry

Good food, fair price!

I got the reuben which was recommended by the employee I ordered from. Super flavorful and filling, plus I can't remember the last time I got a full vegan meal for $10 or less.

A bit pricey but amazing.

The food was amazing, the portion was really large which was nice, I felt like it was filling and high in protein. It’s made locally in a food cart, and isn’t a chain, gives you a piece of mind. Also,there is a really cute seating area!

Fun Vegan Food Truck

Fully Vegan with fun options.
Recommend that you eat it there, as it surely does not hold its heat.
I had the Reuben, and it wasn't my favorite. The fries were the best. Husband had the burrito, which I would get next time.
Maybe someday he will have a brick & mortar place to accommodate more seating.

Pros: Fully Vegan, Nice Staff

Cons: Food Truck

Delicious Vegan Food!

Great veganized classic comfort food! We loved the cheesesteak, chili fries and vegan soft serve. Everything was so tasty and seemed like wholesome ingredients too. Good service too, Blake was great!!

Lunchtime in Eugene

Great stop in Eugene, the cheesesteak is good, the tempeh satay excellent and I loved the coleslaw seasoning

Pros: Good photos of the menu items, Reasonably priced , Friendly staff

Cons: Only 1 person on staff, so be patient, I should have added jalapeño to my cheesesteak.

Soooo good

A cute little shack in a church parking lot. They have so many dangerously good options. I got the bbq pulled pork sandwich that was soo bomb. Also caved and got the sweet potato chili cheese fries. [censored] everyone, they were sooo good. Please stop by here. The fella working was a sweet babe as well so that’s cool.

Pros: All vegan , Sooo many choices , All of it was worth the price

Favorite place at OCF

Vivas is always great for cheap vegan junk food but especially late night at Oregon Country Fair. The tacos and philly cheese steaks are the best

AWESOME

Love, love, love this place. The 'cheesesteak' is not to be missed, and my typical order. Although other offerings are also excellent (especially the tempeh tacos for a lighter bite). Always friendly, and their covered seating area is pleasant, more so when the jasmine is in bloom.

Pros: Reasonable prices, all vegan, always delicious

Good vegan junk food.

I'm in Eugene once a year and this year I did not make a point of eating here. However, when I've gone here before the vegan junk food is decent and the staff is friendly. They have covered seating, but it is outside.

Pros: All vegan , Nice staff, Good selection

Cons: Outside only seating , Not as good as Cornbread Cafe

Yum!!!

I loved this place so much. We ordered too much food because we don't live int he area and wanted to try a little of everything. Everything was so good!! Flavors and textures were perfect. Walked away feeling way too full, which is not something I like to do, but didn't regret it this time.

Save room for the ice cream.

Quick & Delicious!

We stopped here twice on a recent road trip and thoroughly enjoyed our food during both visits. It's perfect for the "reformed carnivore" who is looking for plant-based versions of old favorites like cheesesteaks, sausages, and reubens. Service is friendly and reasonably fast, considering that food is made to order. This is a small food stand in a parking lot with a few outdoor tables for seating., so somewhere between a food truck and a brick & mortar restaurant. Be prepared to pay for parking (meters accept credit cards).

Pros: Good fresh food, Fast

Cons: Limited parking, Limited seating

Best Food Cart Ever

Don't let the name fool you, everything on the menu is VEGAN!

I love this! I've now eaten at the Viva! Vegetarian Grill for lunch 2 days in a row lol. I've gotten the Philly Cheese Steak, the Savory Italian and the chicken fries, all were great! I also tried the Hickory BBQ that my dad ordered and that was delicious. When I was there the first time it was the owner who served me and he gave me a free sample of their ice cream which was super good. Their Chia Tea was a little weird... But everything else I've had was amazing. The owner and I talked for a while and was very personable and nice to be around.

DO expect to wait a little bit of time before getting your food. When I was ordering for 2 people it took about 15 minutes to get our food.

Pros: Vegan Friendly, vegan cheese, Local

Cons: Slow

We got the vegan cheese steak and falafel sand which and both were amazing. We drove about 30 miles to try the food and it was definitely worth it.

Pros: great food, fast, amazing service

Don't Know How he Does it!

Somehow this guy manages to prepare a multitude of options in a small cart-like truck. Everything is really delicious.

Pros: Delicious, Local, All Vegan

One of the best sanwiches

Came here for the first time, most everything lolked good, but the SMOKED BBQ sandwich with cashew cheeze sauce is pure decadance. So savory and balanced, flavorful and I love love what the cashew sauce does for it. Love that they use mostly organic and local products. Some tasty condiments, I especially recommend the mango habenero! And cashew soft serve in a wamr day here is amazing. Its also a good peolple and downtown watching spot. Will be back!

Pros: Very flavorful food, Inexpensive, Mostly organic, local & from scratch

Cons: None
