Veg Café & Bar

This restaurant was just okay. My son and I went there for a special occasion. I made a reservation ahead of time and told them of the special occasion but no one ever acknowledged that while we were there. Most restaurants would have made some kind of fuss. The meal I wanted to order was no longer on the menu, though it showed on the website. The mail I ended up with was full of mostly squash and zucchini, things I'm not crazy about. Would have appreciated more different vegetables inside of it. My son got one of the specials, which were pretty spendy, and he didn't like it. He thought it was the pasta of the ravioli but I think it was most likely almond cheese or something because he said it was a little bit gritty. The appetizer was probably the best thing. We got a heirloom tomato thing that was just delicious. That was probably our favorite part. I WAS happy that there seemed to be organic soap in the restroom so I did not have to subject myself to chemicals. Kudos for that! For me, there are two problems with this restaurant. One is that the menu is very small so there are not many options. Most of them were things I would make at home and did not want to eat out. Second problem was no real gluten-free options. I think that a Restaurant that is vegan should perhaps have more consciousness around the subject of gluten. Oh! And I emailed the manager three times leading up to the day I was expecting to be there & never got an answer until afterwards! So they could definitely do better with communicating as well. All in all, we were not real impressed with the restaurant and probably will not go again.

Visits to Veg Cafe are always a treat, from the friendly staff to the thoughtfully crafted menu items. I'm meat free for medical health and my sister is gluten free, so this place has quickly become our favorite place to meet for our days out.
