Tasty…but pricey - Edit
So I am visiting DC and looking for a healthy place to get breakfast and the reviews were good. In the mood for waffles so that is what I order. I will admit it was tasty but couldn’t help but feeling less than satisfied after I devoured it in under 2 minutes, my hunger still lingering, and out $28 for waffle, latte, and tip.

Absolutely love the salad & burger - Edit
The southwest ranch salad is one of the best salads I’ve ever had (great tofu that isn’t fried, many diverse protein sources). Also loved the plant power burger and chocolate protein ball

Amazing food and people - Edit
I had an incredible breakfast here. The workers were kind and friendly. And my waffle was the best I've ever had. Nice and crispy and sweet with fresh fruit. My latte was also fantastic. They do a great job! Everything is vegan and there are so many options. The decor is also lovely with a cozy library atmosphere. And books about plant based eating that you can read while you wait. I love it!

Great idea but smoothies are too expensive - Edit
Really glad that there was a healthy vegan place not to far away. I got the Southwest tofu wrap and was happy with it. I wanted to also get a smoothie, but those start at $10. I couldn't justify such a high price.

Little Gem! - Edit
So glad I found this place, we stopped here in a rush to the stadium to watch a game and it was amazing! I has the tuscan kale wrap, it was gorgeous! I'd say the tastiest wrap I've ever had! We also had a lemonade which was good and blueberry muffin - also good! Wish we'd have had time to go back to try other things! Would definitely recommend

Wow!!! Great find. - Edit
My husband and I shared the breakfast burrito and a large antioxidant açai bowl. If I could've been in the kitchen directing them how to make it this is exactly the way it would come out. The burrito was so good, not too oily stuffed with greenery and delicious things. The açai bowl was not too sweet and was topped with fresh fruit and granola. My latte was huge and perfectly made. Love this place, fast friendly and delicious.

Breakfast burrito - Edit
I had the breakfast burrito (made gf.) They did not mess around with stuffing this thing, it was a big portion but not too much. Food seemed of good quality and not super greasy. Some ingredients of the burrito were still frozen (totally okay to have stuff frozen obvs but just wasn’t cooked all the way through)

Good an healthy - Edit
I have been there several times during my stay in Washington DC, and I really enjoyed to have breakfast or a snack there. They use fresh ingredients and everything I tried tasted really good!
Read moreDuring my stay I tried the breakfast burrito, waffles with berries, a smoothie bowl, overnight oats and a banana bread. I also had a really nice smoothie with bananas, cacao, peanut butter, dates and a shot of espresso. Everything was good, I can recommend most the burrito, the banana bread and tue smoothies!
Really worth to go if you are looking for something healthy, fresh and vegan in DC!
Pros: Healthy and fresh , Nice breakfast options
Cons: Expensive

Casual, Quick, Friendly - Edit
Super cute all-vegan café with quick, casual, and friendly service. I had a blueberry muffin (so good!) and a F.I.T. smoothie that was perfectly blended—not too sweet, just right. Also grabbed a small kale salad, which was surprisingly big and made a great lunch. Chill vibe inside with good AC and some nice outdoor seating too. Would definitely come again!

Great smoothie bar with pizza and wraps and great menu - Edit
When you think of smoothie bar you think a very limited items. But they have a lot of items including pizza wraps sandwiches waffles and of course the smoothies. Salads as well. Clean modern place, limited seating. Most people are on the go and not hanging out. Great place!

Great vegan breakfast - Edit
Amazing vegan breakfast spot. I always struggle to find variety with breakfast since so many places are egg and meat heavy. This place has such a good variety - wraps, quesadillas, sandwiches, waffles and smoothies! The breakfast scramble wrap was huge - I could only eat half. Mini waffle was delightful and crisp!
Read morePros: Large portions , Variety on menu, Quick friendly service

Great breakfast - Edit

Delicious! - Edit
I loved this restaurant! They have a variety of vegan options - both light and healthy, and more on the comfort food side. I ordered the quesadillas and spearmint tea. The quesadillas were delicious. They were light and yummy. The quesadillas have cashew cheese so beware for any nut allergies. The staff member who took my order was nice. I definitely want to visit again.

Excellent salads, lame banana baked goods - Edit
We tried the kale salad and the southwestern salad and both were excellent and the smaller size was fine for lunch. Banana bread and banana chocolate chip muffins were both disappointing, expensive, bland heavy baked goods.
Read morePros: Good variety of all vegan foods, Nice atmosphere and prompt service, Dr. Gregor's book right on the wall
Cons: Lame desserts including the gluten-free one
