Monster Vegan

I had been hearing good things about this place and finally got around to going. I’m vegan, my friend isn’t but was willing to try it with me. It’s a really cute theme restaurant with drinks to match. I had the Blobarita and my friend had the Manhattan. Both drinks came out festive, the Blobarita in a monster glass and the manhattan had smoke coming from it. For appetizers we had the fried eggplant caprese and the carne asada tacos. They were both tasty. I really enjoyed the ricotta in the eggplant caprese. For entrees I had the clams and linguine (with gluten free pasta) and my friend had the spicy bolognese. The portion sizes were large and both of us got to go containers. The clams and linguine were ok the first night, but when I ate the leftovers the next night it was delicious as all the flavors had come together. My friend liked his dish. I tried the italian sausage and sauce and they were good. I gave the food 4 stars since the pasta was just ok the first night. They charge an automatic 20% gratuity, but it’s in big bold red letters on the bottom of the menu so there is no surprise. The service, food and atmosphere were great so we had no issues. We will definitely be back.

The decor and atmosphere of this restaurant is outstanding. As a non-vegan I found the food delicious. My wife, who is vegan adjacent, loves this restaurant as well. I strongly recommend this place to anyone as long as they are not gluten-free. The gluten-free options are limited.
