Fresh, organic, tasty and vegan. Well prepared, orignal and satisfying. Had the polenta with kale, mushrooms cashew ricotta cream sauce and almond parmigan. Blindfolded you would not know you were eating a vegan dish. Really casual, but really good. A little pricey - $ $ 1/2 signs.

The food, the ambiance and the service are all excellent in this place. I just wish there was one near my house in Brussels

Vegetarian with a vengeance but everything is home made and the quality is FANTASTIC! We are not veggies and we are very conventional - this unconventional vegetarian cafe really took us by surprise. Try their home made hummus!

I first experienced Cafe Gratitude in their new location in Santa Cruz, CA. Santa Cruz didn't really have much to offer in the way of gluten free and/or vegan restaurants so I was super excited to try it and I wasn't disappointed! The Berkeley location has yet to disappoint as well. The food is pricey - know that you'll spend... More

I love my meat, but I really didn't miss it at this restaurant that specialises in vegan and raw food cuisine. The meals were tasty and delicious. The raw desserts were a revelation. We did, however, expect the waiter who "welcomed" us to be more... welcoming, as this is a restaurant that is based on promoting self-esteem. Every meal has... More

Very expensive, and the most pretentious place I've ever been to. Vegan food can be so delicious, but here it was uninspired, except for the very very silly names of the dishes.

Cafe Gratitude is really worth trying. Its an entire genre of cuisine. The culture of the cuisine is Gratitude and Abundance. The food is vegan, some raw, sustainable. I feel well and blessed every time I eat here. Prices are higher than a Deli, but if you have every cooked raw or vegan cuisine you would find the prices very... More

I had heard about this very intentional business for some time, this was my first visit. I love the way they creatively name all the dishes for their energy. I had lunch on the patio on a sunny June day. The food was beautifully presented and very high quality. The ginger spritzer drink was outstanding - very refreshing. I wish... More
