Restaurant

👍👍 Amazing food, the seitan was on point on the chick'n and waffles! Really solid vegan food. The dining is largely outside, with a tastefully cute area with decor and picnic tables (see pictured). Also great as they compost everything, and have a small garden with some chives, basil etc. Very eclectic... People often mention vegan, great, staff,

    Good vegan eats in an awesome atmosphere. Was lucky to sit outside and have my first ever vegan poutine and donair. Very good, I will be back.

    I ordered the poutine as the true Quebecois that I am and it definitely was tasty, however it was extremely salty. To the point where I just could not enjoy the meal unfortunately. My husband ordered the chickpea omelette which was delicious. I LOVE the wide variety of vegan and gluten free options! I can't provide a higher review because all 3 staff members were speaking loudly and rudely, commenting disrespectful about someone who had just phoned in asking for directions to the restaurant. That person was my aunt who was confused and needed some extra assistance. It left us with a really bad vibe and an enjoyable experience.

    Such a great hidden little gem in the heart of Ramsey. Very chill and relaxed atmosphere, awesome people, and amazing food featuring all kinds of local Calgary vendors. You'll be glad you made the stop and gave it a try!!

    Cute tiny hipster vegetarian place in Ramsey. Great food, fast and friendly service. We tried a little bit of everything and everything was fresh and tasty. There are three tables inside and patio with three tables behind the building. Friend’s backyard vibe. A famous Ramsey viewpoint with a view to Stampede grounds just 10 min walk away. Some issues with the doors and unstable furniture which can be easily resolved.

    The menu is updated after they changed the ownership. Much more options now. Today is the first time we come after the ownership change. Food is so good now! Here are some photos of what we ordered. BTW, the manager Caleb is very considerate and the chief is creative.

    Had the Chiktan and Waffles, Buffalo Chiktan Wrap and Vegan Mozza Sticks. The food was awesome and the whole menu is vegan! Thanks for the great lunch :)

    Absolutely some of the best food I’ve had in a while ! There needs to be more quality food restaurants in the city like this one. Dinning in or out is an amazing experience! The trendy look of a cool cafe and amazing staff. Check out the back for out door dinning during the summer !

    I can’t.. I just CANNOT explain how awesome this place is! It’s not a big spot with only a handful of tables, but it is SO worth taking the time to have a meal here! Vegan done right.. everything tastes amazing and the recipes are crafted with a lot of thoughtfulness. Get the Moroccan soup, it literally is life changing!!! We can’t wait to get back here and it will be hard to tempt me to go anywhere else for brunch again 💕 thanks for the great experience as well Caleb.

    Friendly and delicious food. Great to have a vegan Mexican restaurant to add to our fav spots. Small but varied menu and all fresh.

    A year ago - Amazing comfort food for the Vegan soul. Staff are super friendly and accommodating plus their coffee is pretty good too! Now - soggy over cooked fries, warm water on a hot day and no means to try and fix this situation. I’ve tried over and over again to support this local vegan business but sadly almost every time I leave disappointed. In the beginning this place was great, great options, portions sizes and prices I was willing to pay. Now when I complain about the inedible fries on my plate I have to explain why they are bad and that the “next time” I’m there it will Be fixed. This should have been addressed immediately as now there is 100% chance of NOT going back. Miss the old Dandelion, Nourish do BETTER

    Delicious food. Restaurant is 100% plant based and the staff is very friendly. My spouse and I ordered 2 dishes to share and the staff offered to split the meal in half and nicely set it on separate plates so we didn't have to (see picture). Things to note: restaurant is no waste driven so you'll have to bring your own take out container if you plan on taking anything home. Also a very small place, so expect to wait or share tables! Things I'd like to see: 1 price on coffee and have it bottomless. Bigger portioning on the featured tacos! But otherwise amazing.

    Awesome pancakes and chicken & waffles. Great atmosphere inside and very friendly attentive service. We found a hair in our pancakes and a piece of herb in my ice coffee. We brought this up with the staff and they replaced and comped our meal. I’ve had poor experiences with calgary businesses recently when bringing up concerns and I appreciate that this establishment realizes the importance of customer service. Will visit again.
