Vegan raw bar and health food store which originally opened in 2003 and has now expanded to a second location in the Lakes Shopping Center on the west side of town (2910 Lake East Dr.) Both locations serve a menu of live organic vegan cuisine and fresh veggie juices.
This restaurant was reviewed in the September, 2006 issue of Las Vegas Advisor. Some of the information in this article may no longer be accurate. Do you want to know where the real vegans eat? Not Las Vegans. We're talking about the hard-core vegetarians who shun not only meat, but also dairy and eggs. Finally, here's the answer to the many requests we get to recommend a good vegetarian restaurant in Las Vegas. Not only is this a vegan restaurant, but it's also totally raw (nothing is cooked). You've never seen a menu with so many quotation marks: "Cheese" is made out of almonds; "fries" are made out of avocado slices dipped in bread crumbs; "sausage" is made from walnuts; "salmon" is described as the "chef's flavorful creation." The ingredients are exclusively grains, nuts, seeds, and organic produce, prepared with raw organic oils. The "neat loaf" ($12.95) for example, is made from mushrooms and nuts. So how's the food? In a word: different. A lot of imagination goes into the preparation, which is about as good as it can get, given the limitations. It's cheap too—the main dishes are all under $15. And for those of you for whom birdfeed alone just isn’t gonna get it, there's one great out: the house salad with creamy garlic dressing ($11.50). This is one wild and tasty platter of greens, vegetables, seeds, and nuts, and your fellow diners won't be able to say you were afraid to try something.
