Checked the spot out while visiting Dallas. The owner was so sweet and a lot of returning customers came in while I waited. It felt like I was waiting for my cool vegan auntie to cook me up a snack lol. The pressed juice was soooo good. Finished the pineapple ginger one as I waited an bought two more 😂. I got the mushroom tacos and the walnut tacos with the side of chips. But the walnut tacos were my favorite I should’ve gotten some to GO 😩.

First visit, ordered the wubeing. Lovely owner and nice aesthetic but the smoothie was entirely too watery which I knew it would be when it bubbled over as she handed it to me. You can tell by one of my videos how foamy it was. Was hoping for something thick and hearty. Would definitely be a top spot due to ingredients if quality is fixed.

Low key place with good vegan food. Loved the walnut tacos and the burger was our favorite. If you’re in a rush, call in to order ahead. It is made fresh. Plantain chips were bomb

First visit, I’m in vegan love! The hostess, my apologies for not remembering her name was very informative, patient, and friendly. She was actually feeding a hungry homeless man as I was driving up. The food is delicious, filling, and just the right proportion. The atmosphere was tranquil. I was able to eat, read from the collection of books available, in the sunlight

I LOVED my tacos! They were so flavorful and the perfect texture! Jackfruit is so tasty! The owner is super nice and full of positive vibes. I also enjoy chatting with fellow customers here, good vibes all around! There is also sea moss for sale here and smoothies, agua fresca! Beautiful art here!

Amazing energy and food! The staff was super helpful and had a beautifully positive energy. I tried the BBQ Jackfruit and Chipotle Walnut Tacos. These were the best vegan tacos I have ever had! Everything was full of flavor, very fresh, great portion size, and 100% vegan! I will be coming back next weekend for more! Highly recommend 😁👏🏾.

The owner is a vibe and a wonderful lady! The restaurant has a wonderful energy and the jackfruit bbq taco was delicious! What truly surprised me was the cashew cheese sauce i used it to make me some nachos because it really tasted like actual cheese just light on the stomach. I will definitely go again I need some more of that kool-aid 😫

This place is absolutely amazing! The owner is such a sweet caring person! I went in to purchase some juices due to having indigestion and when I mentioned this to her she said I have something that will make you feel better. She gifted me a Dimond Detox Shot that made me feel better instantly I was shocked!

Finished up a golf tournament near by and was starving because the tournament had no vegan food. Took a new golf buddy who just started her vegan journey and the service and ambiance were always the best. Thanks Tish for being a healthy vegan source of food where I trust the source of your healthy vegan food.

A special, vegan jewel located in the heart of Oak Cliff. This little jewel represents the truth that communities such as Oakcliff desire to eat healthy be healthy and live healthy. I enjoyed my jackfruit taco and vegan burger along with my PB&J smoothie the food was delicious. The food was fresh, and the service was wonderful as we all know vegan meals are not cheap because of the intense labor and so I would say that the pricing here is moderate. many customers come here and grab and go but this establishment has a nice area to sit and eat and enjoy your meal. Overall, I was very pleased with the food with the smoothie and the customer service.

My first time here was today and it wasn't easy to spot because they don't have a large sign or anything that says the name of their restaurant - you really just need to pay close attention. The parking lot they have is a fairly decent size and I was able to easily find a space. When I arrived no one else was inside waiting or ordering which was nice. The owner greeted me and told me I was lucky because they are usually very busy. She informed me that they do not use impossible meat or anything of the sort, and that they make everything in house. Very nice. On the menu for the day was a hamburger or tacos. Not sure if they change the menu daily or if you can request other things but that's what I saw besides the juices. I chose the bbq jackfruit tacos. Today was my first time trying jackfruit and it was excellent. You choose how many tacos you want and I decided to get 2. It was paired with red cabbage, green onion, avocado and there isn't a strong bbq flavor but it was just right. It comes with a side of grainy chips but I wanted a side of something else and I chose the plantain fries. The only reason I didn't give this place 5 stars is because the plantain fries were a bit greasy and some were soft but others were a bit hard making it a little bit difficult to chew. Judging by the other photos on here I'm assuming I just got a not-so-good batch but I would come back and try them again. This place is definitely a hidden gem!

Nearly a year later, and the food is still amazing. Who's surprised?! Mad at myself for not visiting more often. Not pictured was the PERFECT tamarind juice I had, which paired nicely with this splendid Sunday special (fresh greens, avocados, a tomaty harissa-like sauce, a mayo-ketchup reminiscent sauce, wonderful patties that I couldn't really distinguish what they were made of, but they were tasty, and some lovely steamed greens). Y'all, I've never had breadfruit before but now it's all I wanna eat! The taste and texture was similar to a plantain for me, starchy, rich, and delicious, and it paired well with all the other stars on the plate; this meal literally gave me life! Thank you Ms. T and the oh-so-kind lady at the counter whose name I didn't catch. Can't wait to come back and leave another perfect review. PLEASE SUPPORT LOCAL BUSINESSES

This place is really good!! All the ingredients were really fresh and had good flavor. I had the tomato walnut salad and it was absolutely delicious. Even my picky husband tried it and said it was good! The owner seems super sweet too! Definitely will return next time we're in Dallas.

One word: YUMMY!! First time and second time, I had a delicious homemade veggie burger that was piled high with fresh vegetables. The owner is very knowledgeable and I enjoyed hearing what she is doing and wants to continue to do in the neighborhood. Try the fresh squeezed juices, they are so refreshing.

It's such a gift to have a vegan restaurant in Oak Cliff! I went to the first time today, had a wonderful conversation with the owner, Tee (spelling), and had an even better meal. I got the veggie burger with cashew sauce, and I'll definitely be back.

Well. Let's be real. This place is literally in the middle of a housing edition, across from a church, and totally not close to anything. (If you are not from the area, really in the middle of nowhere!) When I saw the front door, I was a little concerned, but just for 3 whole seconds. The open sign was blinking and I said no matter what, I'm gonna try this place out. Angela whipped me up some delicious smoothie and was very adamant about keeping her ingredients fresh and on point. I really appreciate that. She is the absolute sweetest lady! This nook and chill of a place has been done up well to make it homey and welcoming. I hate that their door was vandalized. I o wish they had one little table and WiFi. But maybe that will be in the works for the future. Clean bathroom with awesome soap! Kudos, and if I'm in the area again, I'll stop by!

...if you're looking for freshness, this is the spot.... this time around, I rolled out for the juices and smoothies as I embarked on a 3 day water and liquid diet detox..... I had the green energy smoothie and the morning wake up...the names I'm calling them aren't what they are but that's what they did for me...... I got a jug of Tamarind tea and a jug of Hibiscus tea.... phewwww.... *nodding ...yeah, I'll be back for something to chew on and definitely for the beverages.... *pointing back up to opening statement*....

Amazing! Tried to order from our usual place but the online menu was annoying so we tried this place instead! So glad we did! We ordered the vegan burgers over the phone to go! The lady was super nice over the phone and it was really appreciated. Don't be bothered about it being in oak cliff. The place is a true gem! It's small but had enough parking space and was so easy to call and get our food in 15minutes. You can pay by cash or use your card over the phone for pick up right now. The two burgers plus 10% tip was $18. The vegan burgers were big in portion and the herbed in the patties reminded us of thanksgiving stuffing. It was filling but so nice to have a vegan burger that wasn't trying to be meat. Too many places just throw impossible burgers on buns now but not here! It was a homemade vegan burger with all the toppings and a cashew sauce! I got mine with no onion and it was so good. We will for sure be coming often now! I'd give it 10 stars if I could. Truly check it out!

This establishment is the true definition of a small business. The owner is the greeter, the cashier, and the chef and it is her mission to please her customers. All of the items are vegan and she has raw options as well. The juices and smoothies are raw and made from scratch. I tried the Falafel Bowl and it was AMAZING! The falafels are dehydrated, instead of fried, and are extremely flavorful! The dressing was so rich and the bowl was honestly phenomenal. I also ordered the Stabilizer Juice which was very rich and filling! I could taste any nutrient. As I mentioned before, you must be patient when coming here, as one person truly does it all. It'll be worth the wait!

Recipe Oak Cliff does not miss with their tacos, burgers, and smoothies! You CANNOT go wrong with whatever you choose here, and the owner is warm and welcoming. This cozy hole in the wall is a whole vibe in itself. If you're looking to feed your soul while also exciting your tongue with flavor-infused clean foods, this is the spot for you!

I ordered the Nachos with watermelon and mango. If I could get a sampler with everything on it I would. The food is so delicious. Customer service is always great.

So I decided to try a new spot. Reviews were excellent and now I know why. I called first to make sure they were open. A warm and welcoming lady answered the phone and walked me through the menu options. I decided on tacos with plantain fries and I grabbed a juice. Delicious!!!!!! Fresh!!!!! Healthy!!!! I am so glad I popped in today. Will def be back!!!!

Yelp
Yes, folks in Oak Cliff love our veggies and now we have a new spot for healthy vegan eats! Recipe boasts a decent juice and smoothie menu in addition to vegan eats like taco salad w/ walnut "meat" and jackfruit sliders (sooo good!). I felt healthier just walking in there. The space is clean and minimally decorated. Since there are no tables so your food will need to be carry out. It just a bit south of the Dallas Zoo, so be sure to swing through next time you are feeling adventurous!

I've waited an hour for 4 tacos and I think I was over charged. The food is pretty but I have no clue how it tastes I was charged $16 for 4 tacos

"Recipe Oak Cliff" one of the biggest hidden gems in the vegan community. Today I ate the vegan tacos with jackfruit and two with Walnut meat. To top it off they have green banana potato salad which tastes excellent. If you are a practicing vegan or vegetarian lifestyles in the DFW area, you owed it so it to yourself to come to this location and experience the joy.

You know how we say a place is a hidden gem? This place is truly a DIAMOND!!!! A friend recommended this restaurant so I checked it out today...let's just say...NEW FAV!!!! I sampled the BBQ Jackfruit and the green banana salad....yyyuuuuummmmm!!! I ordered the falafel bowl....WOW!!! I was not disappointed at all! My sister had the zoodles with cashew cream and salad and she loved it!!!! We both ate every bite! This is a vegan raw (few things are cooked) restaurant that is TRULY worth a visit. Keep in mind everything is fresh, so it will take a little time for them to make it, but trust me it is well worth the wait!!! Also all food is to go, there is no place to sit and eat. A must try!

Recipe Oakcliff is the best vegan food I have had in DFW, period. When it's hot. And when you don't have to wait 45 minutes for your food. Yesterday, was my second visit and I brought a non vegan friend to try because I believe in my heart of hearts that the food is excellent. My first visit was after a meals on wheels (MOW) route and it took 10 minutes tops for the taco salad. That taco salad was legit. Which is why I brought my friend during our most recent MOW adventure. Oh how the mighty have fallen with this 45 minute wait. There were maybe 5 customers in there but we were the first to order. In fact, 45 minutes was when I got up in weak hanger to ask the status. She went back and came back immediately with my food. We hopped in the car since this is a takeout place with no seating and the food was uncle Luke warm. So my conjecture of the day is that my food was indeed ready maybe 20 minutes ago but someone dropped the ball. I'd recommend calling it in but I watched as no one picked up the phone and the lady next to me waited 20 of my 45 minutes for an ordered she called in. A dude waited on a smoothie for almost 15 minutes. Do better, Recipe. Work out your logistics problems. I brought you a new customer and you completely dropped the ball. Shame because he actually enjoyed his jackfruit tacos despite their frigid temperatures. It was my first time having jackfruit and I am a believer. I want you to succeed but I can't say that I have the time nor patience to wait that long again. Sad trombone.

Stopped here while driving cross country. Just wanted a health juice... Ended up trying the tacos too- wow best food and drinks between Austin and Chicago. Great service - I regret not getting more food for the drive!

My order had been made incorrectly when I called about the problem the women blamed it on me by rudely saying I'm sorry your smoothie wasn't the consistency you like, After she had put Non frozen bananas in my smoothie, while letting it sit In The blender as she took other customers orders. I let owner my issue and that her worker was very rude and argumentative Owner stated she would send me an email for a free smoothie, never received the email and that was well over a month ago. Now I just want a refund for a waste of my time. Called and waited a month for problem to be resolved before I left a review. Clearly they don't care. I will not recommend this restaurant, because if they mess up your order they will attack you for it being your fault not theirs. Or at least that's just the experience I had. Food is tasty, portions are small and over priced. Even worse when couple with bad customer service.

Bomb! Okay!!!!! Visiting Dallas and found this gem on here and I'm so happy i find this place. Food and smoothie was amazing. The taco salad was perfectly seasoned. So much flavor. The restaurant is in the middle of the neighborhood but keep driving and you will stumble upon this gem.

I got the taco salad. It was different but so good! The pairing of mango and avocado was unique and something that i never knew i needed! This is real vegan food! None of that fake stuff! I wish i could've taken a picture, but it looked to delicious to try and next thing i knew, i had ate my whole meal! I can't wait to come back and try the other menu items.

I looovvvee this place. I first found them at a vegan convention in south Dallas. Ventured over to Oak Cliff to try them out and never disappointed. Juices are soooo good. Literally all, fav is the Kool Aid. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu honestly. The walnut tacos, the banana potato salad, the jackfruit. Ordering ahead on Grubhub is a nice convenience as well.

Nicole J.

Yelp
I can see why there is 5 stars on This Diamond in the Rough!!! Wow what a welcoming owner...the juices are AMAZING!!!!! The Hibiscus Tea is OUTSTANDING!!! I am seriously ALREADY ADDICTED TO THIS PLACE...The best Vegan place in Dallas to me outside of the Cosmic Cafe! I will be back!

100% recommend Recipe to quench your vegan hunger. Food was AMAZING and I definitely will be going back.

This is a nice find in the heart of Oak Cliff. You don't expect to find many vegan restaurants in this area. I tried the jackfruit slider which is served with coleslaw. It was great! The texture of the jackfruit makes a great meat substitute and it was seasoned to give it a slightly sweet bbq taste. This place also serves as a juice bar and the tamarind juice was on point. I can't describe the taste; just try it out for yourself! I know the owner. She is a spoken word artist and this venture seems to fit her perfectly. Please patronize this place because we need alternatives to the status quo. You will help out the community and yourself.

Visited this spot last year and the food was good! Decided to go back today, and they didn't disappoint. This time I ordered the Taco salad and the berry smoothie!!! It was so good!!!! Will definitely visit more often.

Omg tried it for first time this is my new favorite restaurant in Dallas the food is heavenly high vibrational delicious beautiful food. Love it

Shawn G.

Yelp
The stars given for this restaurant is for wait time and portion inconsistency. I love this restaurant and visit frequently. However, pack your patience especially if your unable to reach someone to place a Togo order before arriving . Jackfruit is the best I have had around DFW. Their Hibiscus tea is awesome! Most of their juices are pretty good as well. They are definitely worth trying. Speciality and brunch items can be pricey for such small amounts.

Randi B.

Yelp
This a tucked away gem in the heart of oak cliff. The owner imparted knowledge about the menu and allowed me to taste the specials. I loved the Jackfruit tacos and the salad. The food was prepared and arranged with great presentation. The food and drinks were colorful and delicious. I will return to this live kitchen to try EVERYTHING ON THE MENU!!!! the Hibiscus drink was a plessure to my tastebuds. The prices were reasonable and worth every cent. I will get my weekly fill of the Amazing kitchen in the belly of Oak Cliff!!!!

Everything was so delicious from the food to the drinks. The smoothies are awesome, my personal favorite is the the Berry Me. The owner is super sweet and welcoming, can't wait to come back to visit!

Brandee K.

Delicious! I'm so glad that we're gaining options in the South that don't center around fried foods!!! Everything is made fresh to order and worth every bit of the wait! The staff and owner are amazingly friendly and take time to explain everything for those of us who aren't vegan. Quite a few options for meals, so be sure to ask about the full menu!

My husband and I decided to check this place out since we moved to Oak Cliff a few months ago and are checking out the Vegan spots. This place is legit good! We had the On the Nile shake and the PBJ shake and it was so good. Our 1yr old even approved. To eat we had the Veggie burger Special and the Jackfruit Sliders. Delicious!! The staff was very helpful in explaining the menu. So glad we found this place. We will be back to try the juices!

Burgers and chips are great. A good variety of juices and all of them are great to try. Small but cozy location. Not too busy. They are open on sundays although google maps says otherwise. Definitely worth it to go. The owner is very friendly.
