Amazing Vegan BBQ Despite Empty Mall
My experience at this restaurant was surprisingly positive, despite the surrounding desolate atmosphere. The place is still open and the food is still amazing. Don’t let the empty food hall fool you; there was a dispute with the management, causing many other vendors to leave. With the mall next door also empty, foot traffic on Market Street is weak, making the area look desolate. However, this place would be jam-packed if it were anywhere else. The sampler bbq vegan chicken is legit.

Good Food, But Still Hungry
My experience at the restaurant was mixed. The food was good, but the portion size left me feeling still very hungry. For $20, I expected a more substantial meal. They could improve the value by including a side of beans, rice, lettuce, and some thin skewers.

Hidden Gem: Delicious Vegan Food
My experience at this restaurant was a pleasant surprise! It's a fully vegan spot located in the middle of what appears to be a food court. The location on the second floor could be a bit confusing to find at first, but once you discover it, you'll realize the food is good. The atmosphere and service were both rated a perfect 5, contributing to a great dining experience.

Delicious Sampler Plate and More!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I tried the Sampler plate, which included the vegan chicken and onions, as well as the Pinchos. I also enjoyed the Pastelillo, Mofongo cups, and Relleno de papas. The flavors and textures were absolutely spot on. I would definitely eat here again in the future. 10/10.

Amazing Vegan Puerto Rican Food!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I entered through the Market Street side, next to IKEA. They offer all vegan Puerto Rican food, which is a dream come true. I highly recommend the sampler platter, especially with the vegan chicken and onions. It was so good, I almost went back the next day. Nothing hits quite like rice and chicken.

Best Tostones and Arroz con Gandules!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had the best tostones I’ve ever tasted in the bay area. The portions were generous, and the staff was incredibly kind. The arroz con gandules was also perfectly prepared. I will definitely be back!

Authentic and Yummy IKEA Food!
My experience at this restaurant, located on the second floor of the IKEA building, was surprisingly good! To find it, enter on Market street and take the elevator up. I was really surprised by the authentic taste of the food. They did a fantastic job with the impossible meat, which was really yummy! I ordered the fries, a combo plate, and drinks. The BBQ chicken was also delicious!

Delicious Vegan Food, Highly Recommended!
My experience at this restaurant, located in a food hall, was absolutely delicious! I visited three times in a single week, and even brought an omnivore friend who loved it too. Since I was only visiting, I took the Sampler platter and two of the potato balls back on the plane. I would highly recommend this place; everything is seasoned so well!

Fantastic Vegan Experience!
As soon as we spotted this vegan joint on Happy Cow, we knew we’d have to stop by! Everything we got was fantastic and if we had to do it all again, we wouldn’t change a thing! We love that you’re here!
