Phoenix’s Best Vegan and Vegetarian Restaurants | Eater Phoenix

"Open since 2016 in the heart of downtown Phoenix, Vegan House is an unpretentious spot featuring dishes from all over East Asia. The generously portioned vegan seafood hot pot is a standout, and works well to satisfy a group of vegan or non-vegan friends. The menu features a thick and as-creamy-as-vegan-dishes-get avocado curry, as well as a tom yum noodle soup that packs a properly spicy punch. Parking can be a struggle, so plan some extra time." - McConnell Quinn

We walked for 30 minutes from our hotel, filled with high hopes for our meal at Vegetarian House Vegan, which boasted an impressive 4.6 rating on Google Reviews. Upon our arrival, however, we were informed that indoor dining was only available on weekends, leaving us with the outdoor seating option. Initially, we tried to remain optimistic and chose a table, but to our dismay, we were met with a strong smell of urine in that area. We quickly moved to another table, hoping for a better experience. Next, we attempted to place our order via the QR code, but the process proved frustratingly slow. After about 20 minutes, we still encountered issues with card payment, adding to our stress as we were on a tight schedule for medical appointments. To make matters worse, our meals were served on disposable plates, bowls, and utensils—something we hadn’t anticipated based on the reviews we read. Regardless of whether these disposables were biodegradable, it detracted significantly from the dining experience. Eating from proper plates and using real cutlery enhances the enjoyment of a meal, and the use of disposables reminded me of the less favorable takeaway experiences during the pandemic. Thankfully, we always carry our own stainless steel chopstick set, which at least provided some comfort. Now, let’s discuss the food itself. We ordered Bun Hue, stir-fried mixed vegetables, and Malaysian fried curry noodles. As someone from Malaysia, I was particularly looking forward to the curry noodles, but I was disappointed to find them overly saturated with coconut milk—far from the authentic flavors I know. Both noodle dishes were excessively soggy, and the Bun Hue soup had a taste that was quite peculiar. The only redeeming dish was the mixed vegetables, which were nicely prepared. Overall, the experience felt more like dining in a national park without proper amenities, rather than enjoying a meal at a well-reviewed restaurant. It was disheartening to miss out on what could have been a wonderful dining experience in San Jose. 😕😕😕

We went here for Mother’s Day lunch! Even though it looks crowded we didn’t have to wait for long, it’s a big place. It seems very popular people kept coming in constantly. We had mango salad, mushroom kebab, pot stickers, and for main course pineapple fried rice and spicy mambo, everything was great, tasted amazing. We also had vegan desert, they have couple of options, we ordered strawberry cloud cake. It was delicious! Really enjoyed the vibe and food here, we will be back

We were not aware that they have indoor dining only on limited days but the food did not disappoint.. Their menu is all vegetarian and a massive menu to choose from. If the indoor dining is shut they have this outdoor seating and one can order and eat there and its self service.

By far one the best Thai Curries I had in the Bay Area! I absolutely loved the food here. - Pho: Pho Soup could be slightly better though. The broth could be a little thicker. - Thai Curry: There was something unique about the Thai curry here that I'm not able to find at other places. Plenty of veggies, tasty curry. You have to order rice on the side though. Cons: The only con here is the pricing. It's very expensive for the quantity they offer.

As a regular omnivore, the vegan options at this restaurant did not make me miss meat. On the contrary, some of the items, if I was not told what they were, I would have not guessed they were vegan. I actually did not enjoy the desserts so I can't recommend them, but my favorite dishes that we tried were the Queens Joy, Spicy chacha (not actually that spicy), the crispy mushrooms and the caulipower. I would gladly go back for any of those dishes. The mango salad was also nice. Everything in general was yummy so you can't really go wrong. The staff were very friendly and nice to us, even though we were a big group. I didn't get to take pictures of some of the dishes because our group ate them so fast.

We had come to Santa Clara to meet a friend and we just randomly searched for Vegan/Vegetarian restaurants near us. This place was 15 mins drive from where we stayed. So we thought to try it as it had good reviews too. And we were not disappointed! The place looks simple and is managed by a South Asian couple. The restaurant shuts at 2 pm and we reached by 1.40 pm. The lady was so understanding and simply said to order everything before 2pm and we can sit there for how much time we want. We were very hungry and directly ordered entreé. We ordered for Spicy Cha Cha - This was amazing! Just enough spicy to suit our palette and it tasted very similar to shrimp. Crispy Mushroom Delight - These were truly a delight! Very crispy and the sauce was a balance of sweet and spicy. I would highly recommend this place!

We had Vegetarian House Vegan cater our wedding, and it was perfect! Our guests were so impressed that everything was vegan because of how good the food was. Sunny was a pleasure to work with, was responsive through emails and flexible with guest dietary restrictions. They were able to travel further than they normally would, to San Gregorio, and the food was as delicious as it was in the restaurant! Thank you to Sunny and your team for being a part of our special day

Everything was so delicious that it was devoured before I could take pictures, lol. Everyone in our group of 7 that had only 2 vegans approved this place! I really liked the “Queens Joy”, it was smoky and scrumptious, “Summer Noodles” dish that comes with soy protein, a light salad and spring rolls is light and full of flavor, raw sugar-free raspberry cheesecake that is light and airy! My fav soup is Bun Hue, and as far as I remember the Dancing Asparagus that I would not choose by myself and it was ordered by someone else — was delicious! For but allergies all dishes marked clearly!

Dining in the restaurant is not open yet. But they have outdoor seating which was set up pretty cute. There was heater to keep us warm. You can scan the QR code on the table to order your food. We tried to following : Fried spring rolls : 3/5. Nothing extraordinary. In fact it had a little less salt , and didn't like the sauce it came with. It was watered down. Fried oyster mushrooms: 2/5. I always try this dish when it's on the menu. This was quite disappointing as it wasn't crisp at all , maybe the sauce in it made it soggy. Pad Thai: 3/5. This was quite disappointing as well. It was swimming in sauce , never seen a pad Thai like that. And it was quite tart. It was edible , but wouldn't order it again. Really want to like this place , maybe it was just one of those off nights. And we did come pretty close to closing time , so maybe they just wanted to get done with. Will try this place once more before I write it off. Would like to acknowledge the person serving us , he was really kind and welcoming and let us have a table even when we're quite late for dinner.

Excellent catering! Easy to order and communicate with them and the kale salad and fresh rolls were a hit! Fresh rolls do get hard when out for some time, but that's to be expected. We had a group of 20 for an afternoon gathering and next time I would get the medium fresh rolls and large salad instead. Really great vegan food though and well labeled and affordable.

I've been eating at the VH for over 6 years (since I was a student at SJSU). It's a restaurant that is always consistent when you're in the mood for Asian vegan food. It is 100% vegan. I haven't been back since right after the reopened during the Covid pandemic. That's when they shut down their indoor dining and were only doing to-go. I went back this weekend and expected their indoor dining space to be open but nope!! They're still closed for indoor dining, apparently for renovations? They did spiffy up their outdoor eating space but it still feels like I'm eating on a park bench lol. The area isn't the best so I really can't wait for their indoor space to reopen. When you arrive, you order at the window or at your table and then you get a notification to pick up your food when it's ready. Such a shame they package everything even when you order to eat outdoors, not eco friendly at all. The outdoor space has self serve water and sauces available for you to use as you please. This time around I ordered their spring roll noodles. It was packaged to-go so I was surprised that they put the dressing in for me. The veggies were DRENCHED which made it overall too sweet for my liking. If the food is packaged they really should put dressing on the side. I really enjoyed their soy protein and the spring rolls though. It's a nice portion so you definitely get your moneys worth. Overall, if you are looking for 100% vegan food, you can't really go wrong with the VH. They have an extensive menu so there is something for everyone if you're dining with a group.

The food is delicious and had a lot of vegan options without garlic and onions. The service was good. I love eating outdoor under the tent. Though I had trouble online ordering, because the bar code kept sending us to another site and we had to add the app. It kept trying to get us to subscribe it to it for monthly fee when we just want to order food. Ordering the food felt a bit frustrating, but the food was comforting.

I have visited this place for years and the food is always amazing! 5 starts for the food and services! This is one of the best if not the best vegan place in Bay Area. They have wide variety of foods and all is well balanced with species (not too hot). The service is always prompt and pleasant! They still don't have inside seating and have only outside covered patio. It can be hot outside in the summer and cold in the winter. They have been remodeling since the pandemic, but that's some time ago already. I would still come here as the food is just so good! ;)

Nutritious, healthy, and delicious vegan food! Week days are open to sit on a nice shaded patio. Food is freshly made. The owner was very nice to me. Recommend! I ordered the quinoa sushi rolls, I like a little spicier and added sriracha to it. Will be back.

One great spot for vegan food. The food is cooked with lots of love and soul. Very consistent with taste and service! A very warm experience each time :) We always get the Flying Buddha soup to a point we dont have to mention it! Our server recognizes us and remembers the soup n how we customize it ! They have some new menu as well! You gotta try their lion's mane mushroom! It was like fried meat! This mushroom apparently has a ton of health benefits and cannot be found in any grocery stores! Our other favs are claypot sensation ans healthy br

Sorry for the late review but me and wife went here on 10/29/2023 around 8pm and OMG the egg rolls is bomb 10/10 and the Thai green curry was bomb 9/10. We will be definitely coming back here after our 30 day fasting. I just wish they cooked the vegetables a little more so it can be softer in the curry. There was a nice and professional man that gave me my food but if you're picking up late night, you are going to be picking up your food from the patio. Other than that, this restaurant makes me want to be a vegetarian like my wife. We love love this restaurant! Thank you guys for the delicious food, we will be back many more times after our fasting lol

The food is delicious. The staff is also very sweet. I appreciate that they are open late. I miss places that are open past 9. I love their rice it is so light and flavorful.

They use healthier oil alternatives than seed oils. The staff told me they use rice bran oil for deep frying and some sautéing and olive oil for the salads. The flavor of the phô was good as well as the Spring noodle salad. We didn't like the quinoa sushi as much. I was happy with the Thai iced tea. At other restaurants, I've gotten horrible tasting ones. But this one was pleasant. The food was pricey but no more than the majority of restaurants in the Bay Area. I thought the portion sizes were good. We got full. I liked the high amount of veggies in the dishes. The payment method was challenging. It did not take my first debit card. And then I had to put in all my information, address etc. Would be nice if they accepted cash or just let me slide the card without all that information having to be input. It felt invasive. I like the food, but this payment hurdle may deter me from going back as often. Eating outside was ok, but I can see how it may be hot and unenjoyable in the summer. Hope they open the indoors again. I thought it ironic that they are so health minded with good nutrition, yet continue to keep humans with the protection of their immune systems from eating together indoors.

[allium-free review, no onion, no garlic] ranking of top choices: 1. spicy cha cha soy shrimps - my fave 2. crispy oyster mushrooms w soy glaze 3. steamed broccoli and carrots - simply side that is always a safe choice to get your veggies in! 4. eggplant tofu - could have been better cute outdoor seating with heat lamps - no indoor dining

I've been here on three different occasions-two times pre-pandemic and another time post-pandemic. Parking is tight and and limited, depending on the time of day. Unfortunately, the setting has changed post-pandemic and in-house dining is no longer available. Luckily, they still have limited outdoor seating in their patio. I learned the hard way that ordering can be done through their website or by scanning their QR code that directs you to the website. Do NOT order through Square. They will NOT receive the order. I did this and had to call my bank to cancel the transaction. The male worker had no idea Square was active and was informed that it was their old way of receiving orders. Unfortunately, I was the first person to use it since. Lucky me! He was super generous and said they would give my meal to me for free for the hassle. I declined and told them it wasn't my intention to get a free meal. So he told me he'd only charge me $10 instead of $13 for my meal. That was nice of him! Everything on their menu is vegan or vegetarian, as one can tell by the restaurant name. I ordered the bún bò huế, while other friends ordered bún chả. Pick up your order at the window. No picture of the bún bò huế, which was devoured before I remembered. The only downside is that they mixed in all of the chili oil into my soup, making it spicier and oilier than I liked. The faux meat they used was soy meat, which was chewy and absorbed a lot of flavor. Overall, the quality of food has never disappointed me. I'm pleased that the restaurant has stood the test of time (and panny), as more vegan options have become available over the years. Besides the small hiccup with Square, Vegetarian House has my praise for their honest service and delicious food.

I'm usually down to try anything once or twice but I couldn't even make it through a whole meal here. First off, I'm sure they have their reasons as to why the dining room is closed but the outside area was poorly shaded and the tables/seats were uncomfortable. That doesn't make for an enjoyable dining experience. Although the portions are large, the flavor is not. That was incredibly disappointing as everything looked amazing but the taste didn't match.

First time visiting. They have parking. We arrived before 4pm and waited for opening time in our car for 30 minutes or so. We did not know when they opens, so we tried to go in. The door was locked but had an open sign. I was very confusing as there was no instructions at the door. It happens that they have "pick up only" now and their service window is at the parking lot. They should put a sign on the door explaining that. You have to order online, but they do have an outside patio were you can eat your food. On the patio they do have ordering instructions. Pease ads that same sign to the front door. We ordered thai Tea, curry noodles, Teriyaki Bowl. Our least favorite were the noodles. They tasted a little bland and not memorable. Just "meh". The bowl, on the other hand was full of flavor and yummy! Thai tea was good too. Food came out fast. I am not from the area but wpuld give a try again when visiting.

Five stars for the food, minus zero stars for the way they run the business. They make it difficult to place orders, it's upsetting that they do not allow to make special instructions or comments when you order trough DoorDash. I had to call in to tell them additional instructions, this is not aceptable to me, why I have to call to ask for the food to be extra crispy and for utensil and soy sauce to be included, this feels to me like a bit of arrogance on their part.

If you are seeking healthy, whole food plant based vegetarian food - this is not it. Almost all the dishes made with tofu & over processed soy. The special mothers day soup had barely any veg, lots of corn starch, soy sauce, tofu. Dissapointed.

Wide variety of vegan options but some dishes really lack flavor. Detailed breakdown below: **Service, 5/5** As far as I could tell, there was no dine in. There's an outdoor patio with heat lamps, but you still order on your phone and pick up at the window. The gentleman helping us was nice and answered all our questions. **Decor & cleanliness, 4/5** Just seeing the patio, the tables were clean but there was some garbage in the area. **Price & portion, 4/5** The prices would've been okay if the food was tastier/more flavorful, but the fact that it was lacking makes it harder to find the price worth it. **Presentation of the food, --/5** Everything is packed in to go containers, even if you're eating at the patio. **Taste of the food, 3/5** - Spring rolls (~$9), 5/5: Although they're a bit small and over $2 each, they're super crispy and tasty. Awesome with the sweet dipping sauce. - Chow fun (~$15), 2/5: The noodles were nice and soft and there was an assortment of veggies, but the entire dish was very one note and didn't have much flavor at all. Seasonings are vegan so I'm not sure why they didn't use more... **Other notes** There's a parking lot, so no need to street park even though this is in DT. No restrooms that I saw.

This place was better before COVID. Now, they have you sit on the Pateo, don't provide any plates (just plastic that comes with the to-go order) and the water is a self serve 5gallon jug which is serving hot water in this weather. Two times our order came with the wrong item and we had to drive back to exchange it. Sad to see this place still be under "COVID" restrictions. They've seen to gotten lazier after COVID.

This place is super unique! Definitely good tasting vegetarian and vegan food options... The crispy spring rolls, the burger is also really good. Definitely foodie status for being vegetarian! I lowkey freaked out cause the cha cha dish looked like shrimp...but the owner guaranteed us it was not. I'm deathly allergic to seafood... Definitely delicious stuff. Wish we could eat inside, but they are short staffed and only serve takeout or delivery.

Wholesome family-run vibes with delicious food and a beautiful outdoor area. I loved the atmosphere - due to COVID they had to close the indoor dining area but they truly made the best of what they had. The outdoor dining area is decorated beautifully and has space heaters to keep you warm. Ordering was easy through the app, and we chose to eat there (plenty of parking!). Great! The food was exactly what I expect vegan food to be - healthy, flavorful, creative! Loads of veggies in every dish prepared to perfection, not overly oily or salty!! The Cha-Cha and Rainbow get a huge FIVE STARS from me! The cha cha is so unique and kind of like crispy spicy shrimp - yum!! The rainbow is really unique, rolls of veggies/tofu wrapped in crispy seaweed. It comes with a rich veggie-filled broth/sauce to pour over it. I was obsessed! Personally I didn't find the bun hue noodles to be that special but rice noodles are typically not my thing. Highly highly recommend!

Got the wonton soup to go and it was quite delicious! Malaysian chow mein was delicious as well! Good quantities! they even went out of their way to get chili flakes for us (I personally find the chili sauce to be too vinegary and ruins the taste of the dish) I have one confusion, The restaurant seems to close at 8:30 as per the Internet so we ordered to go, it was nearly 8:30 when we went to pick it up, and the owner/host asked if we wanted to be seated. The seating area also looked alive and popping, so I'm not sure if that needs to be updated??

Wow, I am in love with Vegetarian House Vegan! A restaurant that is 100% plant based that makes their own in-house proteins and sauces for their dishes... yes yes yes! I finally got to try this spot out after seeing so many friends recommend it now that I follow a plant-based lifestyle. At first, the menu options and prices seemed a bit much for me - I mean, stroganoff at a restaurant that sells mostly Asian veggie options? I'm glad I finally came to check off this final major vegan spot in San Jose because the food here is incredible. Their quinoa sushi roll ($11) was a fresh appetizer to kick things off. Following this, their piping hot Malaysian Curry Noodle ($13) gave me all the reminders of laksa that I had missed since going plant based. Our favorites were definitely the Spicy Cha Cha ($16), lightly deep-fried flour crescents with a delicious coated seasoning, and their Queen's Joy ($13) which was soy protein cooked in their house sauce was to die for. The last dish was the closest thing to meat I've had in a long time, and it really gave me those vibes (which is quite eerie)! What I also appreciate with their orders is that they also pack in a lot of veggies. For all our dishes, there was a handful side of greens from slaw to romaine cuts. It really helps knowing that you're enjoying food that is likely a bit unhealthier than home cooking. I also LOVE that they have a low-salt option. Trust me, you can forego some of the sodium and still have a delicious meal. You have to order online for pickup and they have a dedicated outdoor seating area to enjoy your meal. It's a cute spot with friendly people that's tucked away from the main street, so you won't be bothered by the ongoing traffic. They also have a dedicated parking lot which is super convenient for customers. Love this spot. So glad that everything is vegan and that you can customize your options. I hope to be back again soon.

I got the Spicy Cha Cha as takeout. I thought it was fine? I definitely didn't have it at its best, since it had cooled down so it wasn't super crispy. The lettuce leaves were large. It had a sort of salsa-like spice and onion blend on top that gave it some flavor. I'm not entirely sure if it was supposed to be more of a salad or a wrap. The mushroom skewer was very chewy and none of us enjoyed it. I wouldn't get it again.

Low quality tasteless food with poor service and equally higher prices. This place is somehow still following covid rules and they are not open indoor. They want people to sit in a patio and order food/pick food/make adjustments through a window a block away. No service at all. Quality of food is really low and so is the taste.

Ordered to go food.. Tom kha soup - this was actually sweet which I wasn't expecting, also it has shrimp piece which I assume were fake meat but that was not in description. I didn't appreciate that Green curry- the flavor was way too mild for my liking. Couldn't taste anything except brown rice. $6.2 for a side of brown rice is quite expensive, you can get a rice bag in that price range.

This is great place for vegetarians. I loved their satay. It's a must try. I couldn't stop eating it. Sauce provided with it just compliments it very well. Sushi was okay. Good to have quinoa instead of rice. However it was almost chilled. Also no wasabi or soy sauce was provided on the side. Also tried fried mushroom. It was also nice. Indoor seating was closed. Outside is open with few outdoor heaters.

Ordered the queens joy with jasmine rice and the fresh rolls. I will say the texture and flavor of the queens joy is much like teriyaki chicken and I didn't expect that from its description but it was delicious I can say that. However the fresh rolls I ordered were disappointing, the rice paper was hard and the roll in general was tough and hard to chew, which surprised me. The peanut sauce and roll itself completely missed the authentic flavor of a great fresh roll and you can tell the ingredients are disproportional with each roll and bite. I may be back to give this place another chance because so many items look tempting to try but the service and way of ordering is ludicrous. You have to ring a bell to get anybody to pay attention to you or realize you need help and they aren't the friendliest in helping you order. I went and asked questions twice about the food before ordering and they seemed put out and annoyed so that wasn't the greatest experience. The patio has only one warmer and it is not enough for the winter nights to sit outside there's about two tables you can feel the warmer and besides that good luck and bring blankets if you're dining there.

As someone who is deeply passionate about veganism, sustainability, and the ethical treatment of animals, I was absolutely thrilled to find Vegetarian House. Not only does this restaurant serve scrumptious, plant-based food, but it also operates with a mission to spread the message of veganism, promote a healthy lifestyle, and protect our planet. The staff, who are all dedicated vegans, greeted me with genuine smiles and seemed eager to share their passion for plant-based cuisine. Their enthusiasm and commitment to a cruelty-free lifestyle only added to the overall experience. The menu at Vegetarian House is nothing short of exceptional, with a wide variety of delicious options that cater to different tastes and dietary needs. I was particularly impressed with the creative use of fresh and flavorful ingredients that truly elevated each dish. From appetizers to desserts, every item I sampled was bursting with taste and artfully presented. Not only was the food extraordinary, but the restaurant's dedication to sustainability and eco-friendly practices was apparent in every aspect of the dining experience. Vegetarian House uses locally-sourced, organic produce, and their commitment to reducing waste and protecting our planet is commendable. In a world where more and more people are embracing plant-based diets for their health, the environment, and animal welfare, Vegetarian House is a shining beacon of vegan excellence. I wholeheartedly recommend this restaurant to vegans, vegetarians, and anyone looking to try some truly amazing, cruelty-free cuisine. Don't miss the opportunity to dine at this gem of a restaurant and join the movement towards a healthier, more compassionate world!

Hands down, this is my favorite restaurant in San Jose. Maybe it's kind of a good thing that I live in San Francisco because otherwise I would spend all of my money here because I just love their foods so so so much. I'm getting hungry just writing this review. Healthy vegan food that's prepared delicately and artistically. The servers are friendly and always nice. Gorgeous restaurant with the stained glass and the grand piano by the door. Whether you're a carnivore or a herbivore, there are so many faux meat dishes that taste even better than the "real thing." They don't serve alcohol but their juices are fresh squeezed and I love that they serve whole coconuts.

My family and I have been going to Vegetarian House for years and this review is simply overdue. Vegetarian House has some of the best vegan food around and it feels great knowing that their food is organic and non-GMO! To top it off, the people who work here are so kind and welcoming! I am thrilled that they have opened indoor dining as well. If you haven't been here, what are you waiting for?? If you are a regular customer like me, enjoy!

Ordered online for a spicy cha cha, queen's joy and spring rolls for pick up. Love the ease of online ordering - so efficient and user friendly. They text you when your food is ready, and when you go to the pick up station, just text back the number to say you are there. A+ for Covid-friendly pick up system - they wore double face protection and had very minimal contact. Onto the food - I thought the food was tasty but my unfortunately did not exceed expectations. Perhaps reading all the reviews may have ruined it but I was just expecting an awe-amazing meal. Again, the food was tasty but not 10/10 for me - maybe 8/10 thus 4/5 stars (yay I still remember how to do fractions). Spicy Cha Cha - the first time I had this dish was at Loving Hut in Milpitas years ago and I fell in love. I kept telling my girlfriend about this dish when we were living in orange county, and now that we're doing Veganuary, based on the reviews I wanted her to try it here vs. Loving Hut. I should've trusted my instinct and went to LH instead. I mean, it was delicious, but it felt a bit flavorless. The "shrimp" was perfectly crispy but the inside was a bit dry. Didn't get much flavor coated into the batter or something because in my opinion it wasn't as flavorful as I expected it to be. Garlic, onion and bell pepper stir fried around it - so I thought the cha cha would infuse those aromatics, but it just tasted separate. It was decent though! Queen's Joy - meat-like tofu with an array of garlic & onion spices. I enjoyed this dish more than the spicy cha cha, pretty flavorful with rice on the side and absorbed much of the garlic and onion aromatics. Spring rolls - vegan spring rolls, not much to say. Very crispy and tasty - the "fish" sauce to dip was a bit bland but I genuinely liked it. For about $2 per roll (4 for $7.50) - was hoping they'd be a bit bigger. Hard to go vegan full time when meat eggrolls are much cheaper :( but this was tasty! Overall good experience and would come again. Might be an off day for the cha cha or maybe my memory was off - but would come back! A+ for easy parking.

I'm a believer that there's something for everyone here! Vegetarian House has a pretty expansive menu featuring a variety of Asian food as well as "Western favorites". Everything I've had so far has been delicious, including the pho and spring roll noodles -- and I've only ever had their food for take-out! I have also tried bites of their BLT and that was great as well. The fries that came with it stayed nice and crispy. The only problem I have is that it can take me a while to decide what I want to order! Ordering online and picking up is super easy - they have a parking lot and a clearly marked pick up window. I can't wait to try more of their menu!
