Just ordered from them from door dash as they were newly added. Asked for burger well done it was bright pink inside. Eww. Fries were not cooked at all, garlic wings were undercooked basically couldn't eat it. Maybe it's better in person but it seems like they didn't try

Every dish we ordered (5 in all) was incredibly good plus the service was outstanding. Both Elena our server and the manager were welcoming, friendly, and responsive.

I'm not a vegetarian. The food was great!

We just stopped in for drinks and snacks, but what we had was very good. The vegan desserts were tasty, and you wouldn't know they were vegan just by looking at them. I would add that I took one home and it was definitely better with ice cream. And that would include a soy ice cream, as there's some good ones out there. So maybe next time. Also had a dry hard cider, which was very nice. Will have to come back with vegan friends for the lasagna and the mac and cheese.

We had an amazing meal here. Best vegan Mac n cheese I’ve had. And the special burger was unique and tasty! We also had a great ginger drink. Food can take a while if it’s busy, but the atmosphere and staff were so lovely that we had no problem waiting (plus the food was well worth it as everything seems made in house!) Can’t wait to return and try more. Thanks for creating such an awesome place!

My partner and I tried this place on a whim, and we both tried cocktails with a vegan bbq burger. I'm not vegetarian, but this burger was extremely good. The bun was so tasty, obviously homemade. I'd probably eat it by itself. Japanese sweet potato fries were better than the sweet potato fries you can get at most places, and thicker. Service was very nice, answered our questions about the food and brought out our drinks quickly. I only wished they had more cocktail options, but it sounds like all their cocktails are vegan, and use house-made juices.

The vegan lasagna is one of the best I've ever had! They use The Butcher's Son's cheese which is the best vegan mozzarella on the market. Comes with salad. So good...

This isn't crap fast food; this is the real thrill of culinary satisfaction. Don't come here for a quick fix; come here because you appreciate true food, from the source, no additives, no preservatives. Everything is made by hand, with care for the ingredients. So your food is fresh, and you can taste it in every bite. Ask about the vegan lasagna and vegan burger. Here at Collective Kitchen, bread for the bun is made fresh each day, as is the patty and all other ingredients. This is a place to sit, chill, take your best friend, a date, roommate or colleague, talk, and truly enjoy your food. Or come alone and sit at the bar and be treated by the artistic bar tender who makes a wizardry of drinks with fresh pressed juices. You can't go wrong here. Come sit, enjoy your food in style with great music and ambiance.

This place is pretty new and pretty good. It's got your basics that you'd expect, comfort food, but GOOD. Not overly greasy and bland. The spices are on point, subtle but unexpected combinations. I highly recommend the vegan burger. It's not crazy and overdone, it's just made really well. Also, got a fresh juice and gin cocktail and it was great, not overpowering and just really fresh. It's a good sit down place, although you order up front, it's a good place to take your time. Also really great vibe and decorations.

$12.01 for a nice bowl of basic roma pasta and red sauce with 4 meatballs was quite filling, however I believe there is something in the meatballs that is not healthy for me as I am currently having difficulty breathing...

I gotta say this is gonna be one of my new favorite vegan places. Fresh delicious vegan (and vegetarian) food, and full bar. The vegan lasagne is amazing!! Highly recommended.

Love this new vegan place. Lovely environment. Delicious pizza. Comfy setting. Real nice service. I've went looking for plant-based restaurants and this is one of my favs now.
