Great food excellent service! So cozy and the owners are the nicest people. I will be back to try more.

The food was really good but the portions don't match the prices. 16$ for two small tacos. Even an upscale Mexican restaurant wouldn't charge 8$ per small corn tortilla taco. Same thing with the bowl. 16$ for 1/3 cup of quinoa, three pieces of squash and some kale. The flavor was there but they should probably knock about 2$ off each menu item. I understand inflation and like to support businesses, but I also don't like to be ripped off.

Beautiful space, love vegan food... Excited to try it! Sad that the Avo & Eggs Smorgas was not what I expected. The sauce was good, bread was awful. Also tried the Green Smoothie, very bland as well. Vegan food needs flavor & spice! Service was abrupt and cold. My friend was also disappointed. Food was bland, service was cold and it was $36 with tip for a smoothie, avo & egg/gluten-free bread. I'm glad I tried it and won't be back. .

I love this place! I also love that I know I'm getting food as healthy as I would make at home.

I ordered the Mexi Cali bowl with the egg and the margarita pizza with mozzarella cheese. Good in taste, ingredients, and presentation. Not great. One iced mocha lavender coffee and a hot chai tea latte. I asked for almond milk but they were made with oat milk. It was good though. I really liked the pastries. Nutter Butter cookie(which was recommended) and vanilla donut were outstanding. There are a lot of options on the menu. And the employees are wonderful. Lots of vegetarian and gluten free choices. I think it's definitely worth a try.

Got the harvest salad aka kale salad. So disappointed. This was a $20 plus tip pile of kale with nothing else. Will never come back here!

C'mon over for great Beacon coffee (vanilla mocha FTW) and great food (I had the Harvest Breakfast Bowl...so much yum), immersed in a relaxing, sunshiney vibe.

Honestly? Why all the hype? Even the damn coffee sucked! Mac n cheese was watery and gross. Just no!

Great place, I haven't had the food there yet, but if their drinks are on an indicator, then they are spot on every time!

Pretty good. sizes were small on their smoothies especially when they are 12 plus dollars and they seemed like they were pre-made and blended again. There was something just a little different about them.But I'm not sure. I would definitely try the place again. There's salad looked really good large portion. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thingsVegetarian options: Seems like it was all vegetarian or vegan

I really wanted to rate this place higher with so many adventurous vegetarian options and a hip atmosphere. Ordered 6 meals with drinks and most of us were happy with the taste and quality of our selections. However, one of my family member’s meals was inedible. It was so sour and not the way one normally expects shashuka or to be made. Tasted more like pickled vegetable soup. My sister in law was reticent to say anything, but looked like she was going to throw up trying to choke it down so we politely asked if we could substitute it for something else. We were told it was her fault that she didn’t enjoy it, other people ate it without complaint, and they couldn’t substitute anything else. Even a small gesture in purchasing a substitution or a kind word would have gone a long way. Despite that, paid to just get a side of scrambled eggs for her and my nephew to share. After waiting 20mins the scrambled eggs still had not arrived (the restaurant was not busy, it was a weekday) so I inquired if they would be out soon and found out they hadn’t even been started. Meanwhile my poor sister-in-law watched the rest of us finish our meal and my nephew was also waiting. The other meals were very good but the cold and irritated response to our concerns was so disheartening. Disappointed overall with the experience.Vegetarian options: The Mexican cali bowl, the mushroom toast, and one of the pizzas were all delicious. The shashuka was inedible.

Great food and service! The pink bowl was especially delicious and full of flavor. The smoothie menu looked great, will definitely will try one next time

Just got back from the best visit to Ventura, and honestly it was because of Harvest. Every morning I would swing by for the best, heartiest, healthy breakfast ever. What a way to start your day. Everything is sooooo good, but my favorite morning / breakfast items are the vanilla date latte (I actually I also loved the mushroom latte- so I got that to go), the banana oat waffle and the açaí bowl. You can't go wrong, though, I promise!! We also stayed nearby so found ourself there for lunch and I was so excited to see the "February Specials" are BEETS! Yum! I felt so good about the food I put in my body after eating here... there aren't a lot of places in this world who offer these ingredients on an every day basis. I can't wait to return!!!

Sad... that is how I felt after eating here.. and still hungry as it was not edible. Would not recommend, spend your money elsewhere. The food is bleh and expensive. The lattes were horrible - ordered a standard latte and a turmeric chai latte - both with their "homemade cashew milk" which was basically water.. Food we ordered included the buckwheat waffle with some weird vegan gravy - both bleh - and a harvest bowl which was also covered in that gross vegan gravy .. neither were healthy either so there's no benefit to trick yourself into eating it any way. Skip this spot!
