Amazing vegan spot! Everything was delicious. As an omnivore, I’m always on the lookout for plant based places that offer options everyone can be happy with. They were also great at checking for my allergens, even during a busy time. I ordered the smoked bbq sandwich and loved every bite. Their food is proof that this spot carefully selects their ingredients and doesn’t compromise on flavor. My vegan friend ordered the pyrgi and swapped the chicken for tofu. Our only regret is not trying the abundance of desserts they had out!

The customer service is great and I like the decorations. I didn't like the lemon cheesecake, maybe I'll come back and try something different but that was the only thing that I bought.

I had the "Jalapeño Business", a sort of cheesesteak with amazing plant steak, slightly less amazing bacon, and a nice greasy bun. The staff was awesome. I especially appreciated the shaker of nooch! I'm headed back to Korea, but wish I lived in Berkeley to eat here all the time.

This was extremely tasty. If you are really hungry, this is your place. And I can only recommend to invest the 3$ for the vegan blue cheese. Also the garlic fries were something special! Wish I could have taken some with me.

The Butcher's Son is a must try place! Everything I've had there has been spectacular!

I tried their tuna sandwich, fries, canole and potato salad. The canole was good and the potato salad was ok. The fries were covered in oil, so much so that they were shining. The tuna sandwich was an awful pile of mush and oil. Other than that, I appreciated the server who was kind and helpful.

The concept is on point! The flavor is just a tidbit off from its replacement. It deserves a 5 for effort but gets a 4 because I wanted it to be a replacement for my meat options but it was so close. I love the salad option. The cheesecake was delicious. Yes, I would go back. It's best to go early parking can be a bummer. Customer service was great.Parking: This is Berkeley so there was street parking but limited spaces. Best to get there early. It may have has some meter parking but didn't notice it. I parked in 2 hr free limit space. Google took me to old location. Luckily my son was with me and knew it had moved up 1/2 a block. Construction going on. I had to walk a block uphill. I didn't notice handicap accessibility but inside the restaurant chairs were removable. There's open space to move a wc through.Wheelchair accessibility: Read above

Mom, sis, and I made a trip here for my vegan journey. WOWZA The food is named like regular meat food would be and it does not dissapoint!We had the pasto chicken sandwich, the killer BLT, and the Ceasars Chicken Sandwich. The "meat" is gluten and filling. For dessert, we had canoli and the magic bar to share, which were also delish. Being vegan is easy when you can have treats like this between salads, stir-fry, tof, and root veg. I am going by on my way to the airport to get some more to share back home.

I liked the pulled "pork" ... the fried chicken + bacon sandwich (I forget what it was called) was also good. The latter def tastes vegan haha. But it was all delicious!

The service is fine, but the food, primarily because it is vegan, and the fake meat and cheese and dairy is gross and everything was unhealthy.

No other words required, it's exactly what you'd expect. Great vegan food that's so good you can bring along all your omni friends and you won't hear a single complaint. Wish there were more places like this!
