Veg On The Edge - San Luis Obispo

Great vegan and vegetarian options, but tasty enough that everyone will be happy! The food was so good. Very savory and filling with interesting flavors not found elsewhere in SLO. I got the Cassava fries and taco, my friend got the Peanut Stew. We both loved everything! The owner is super nice as well.

Tried to order a veggie taco and said it would take over 30 minutes, so I decided on cassava fries and peppered plantains. They were out of a frozen plastic bag then reheated. $5.25 for a total of 7 fries seems steep. They were sort of crunchy but some weren't done in the middle. The peppered plantains were decent.

They just opened, so it's still a limited menu, but it's all good...and very different than the usual restaurant vegan fare. The peanut stew is amazing. So is the shiitake bowl. Today I had the tacos, and they were substantial, yummy, filled with lots of fresh veggies. They are super friendly and helpful. And the new SLO Public Market is a great space with plenty of outdoor seating. You can always grab some vegan chocolate for dessert right next door at Mama Ganache!

Got the pumpkin seed stew and the cassava fries. The fries came with a delicious dipping sauce and were so tasty that for a second I thought, “who needs potatoes?!” The stew was incredible. So flavorful and comforting- like a home cooked meal. They are located in a public market space, which I love. Lots to check out (vegan truffles in the space next door) and ample outdoor seating for proper distancing. The lovely person who helped us and made our food was the most kind and welcoming individual. They also gave us a little pronunciation lesson. Do yourself a favor and go eat here!!

Delicious! Tried the peanut stew and veggie taco. So good!
