"Core Kitchen's menu is entirely vegetable-based, with noodles made of zucchini and collard green wraps. A kale salad at a vegan place comes as no surprise, but Core Kitchen's tahini-marinated kale is worth a shot if you've been skeptical of the leafy green, or have been in a long-term relationship with it and need to reignite that spark." - Eater Staff
Delicious vegetarian family meal (that can be made vegan upon request). This week’s menu was elotes, Chile relleno, and grilled romaine lettuce. Easy metered street parking available. The order was ready upon arrival. They thoughtfully package their food in compostable containers. Support this great cause!

I work from the wework next door just so I can get lunch here.
Super flavourful, fresh, healthy and filling bowls in a cafe started by a local non-profit.
Love this spot.

I got there a little after they opened. Two things that I wanted weren't ready yet. So I got the Southwest bowl. It was good. I like how they use compostable materials.

Yummy! Totally healthy kale salad. I wanted protein but no meat so I went for this salad. Really good.

This establishment is amazing! The food is excellent. When the young man was preparing my food he took his time and was very gentle with it. I ordered the collard wraps. It was not that type of slamming of your food you get when you go to fast food restaurants. He handled it as if he was preparing for a special guest. When he presented to me I was so surprised at the presentation. It was more than I expected.
Then I dug in and there are no word to explain the flavor. Just go and check it out for yourself. You won’t be disappointed.

I took some time to just see how beautiful Oakland was. I took a walk to city center and found an amazing Gem called CORE Kitchen! The food was AMAZING!!! Everything was made fresh that morning with only produce, nuts and spices! I thought I was in heaven, I've never seen a place like this that tastes this awesome and it is 100% healthy! I got my kids to eat all thier fruits and veggies with out a fight and this is a first! :)

Super yummy and creative food combos. The food takes about 7 minutes so it’s fairly fast. The food is super healthy and the restaurant is very sustainable. Totally a millennial hang out. It’s a bit pricey but worth the trip.
