Loved this cafe. We just got smoothies but the folks at other tables with food were enjoying what they ordered and I was sad I had eaten lunch already. Vegan and vegetarian options plus they donate proceeds for certain dishes to charity which is cool. I got the berry smoothie and enjoyed it.

Very nice vegan food. I got a buffalo tempeh wrap, and definitely enjoyed it. There were a lot of options too, which all sounded good. I also got the chocolate peanut butter cookie and very much enjoyed it. If any complaint, I wouldn’t mind paying an extra buck or two for a slightly larger size; for me at least the portion was small (but well priced).

First time in and I’ll be back. The food was fantastic and so was the service. Had the Vegan Banana/Chocolate Chip Muffin and Smoothie. Everything was fresh and reasonably priced. Thank you for having these great options. You won’t be disappointed here.

I’m shocked for such a healthy food style place how bad was the Asian veggie gluten free wrap I bought today! The greens and broccoli were not fresh and salad greens did not smell good because some had turned. It had zero taste. $16 down the tubes for nothing. I’d never go back. So surprised how bad such simple food could be.

A really great spot for vegan fare, there’s ample room for several parties to sit in the restaurant itself, and the place itself does brisk takeout throughout the day.

A lovely mostly vegan spot! I’m so glad I went here for lunch before heading down to the beach.

High quality, excellent vegetarian/vegan restaurant. Tomato soup is fantastic and so are the wraps. Staff is all vegan/vegetarian as well and very friendly and helpful. Great location and outdoor seating if you’re bringing a dog or two.

My daughter and I just had the most amazing gluten free lunch. Everything is homemade, including the GF bread! The texture was medium fine and tender in the center after toasted. My daughter had an egg and cheese, although I would recommend the egg be flat, instead of scrambled so it’s easier to eat, we used a fork to eat the pieces fallen off. I had a custom grilled cheese with their homemade coconut bacon! Wow! Delicious. For our lunch dessert, we shared an entirely sweet banana chocolate chip muffin. Wow! Dense and delicious. Half wasn’t enough, so I took one home as well. Prices are fair. Host was very helpful and informative. We’ll be back!

I went today for a Buddha bowl and iced coffee. I’ve had a Buddha bowl in the past and the one at the Twisted Tree Cafe was good – it could have used more variety of veggies. I took my food to eat outside as there were other people eating outside. The chairs were stacked so the guy came out to help me, and he started to say something like, they weren’t yet seating people outside, which I ignored and sat down anyway. Seriously? There were people sitting at another table so why would it be OK for them to sit there but not me? Especially when I just purchased a really expensive salad and drink?? Annoying. The food wasn’t good enough to go back and the service wasn’t great.

Love Twisted Tree. Have been eating here for years and as someone with celiac, this place is a godsend. I’ve tried numerous items over the years, but my fav are:
