Man all across the board 5 stars no exaggeration here I promise. Food is so good. The food actually looks like the picture too. They got great customer service. I think his name was Reggie??. I’m going to beat eating a whole a lot more. This is the place guys, they may be carrying San Antonio with this spot. The sweet potato salmon. Oh and prices are great! Excellent job!!!

A little out of the way, but easy to find. You immediately feel welcome. Shady places to sit outside. Extremely well-positioned employees. Great location with fine food made from fresh and healthy ingredients. Very clean toilet available. Absolutely recommended!

I’ve made a purpose to stop here every time I’m in San Antonio for work. I love this place and it’s one of my favorite food spots anywhere in the world. If you’re looking for healthy, local food that truly tastes amazing, this is the spot.

I had a bad experience here today. I arrived at the time instructed, food wasn’t ready, and the staff asked me to sit and wait in their eating area. And then they completely forgot. 15min later, I went to ask what was taking so long, and discovered they just didn’t tell me that the food was waiting.The food was a bit colder than it should have been when I tasted it. But it was delicious. So, ultimately, great kitchen but service/communication need improvement.I wouldn’t order take out from here again, but I’d certainly come eat here if I wasn’t in a rush.

This is a cute and quaint place to have lunch. Just like most of the men that leave comments, my wife wanted to try a new vegan place. I had opted for wings or burgers but the Mrs. Wanted something healthier. Great choice. I had the shrimp po'boy and she had the mushroom sandwich. The side salad was very crisp and fresh. The brown rice had a very elegant nutty taste. The Mac and cheese had a great sharp taste and the chili was quite robust. The shrimp was juicy with a great bite and seasoned just right. We finished with their sweet potato cupcake and a slice of their sweet potato pie. Delicious and not overly sweet. Can't wait to go back!

I really quite like this place. Warning, its got a super earthy and hippie vibe but it's also an issue for anyone looking for healthy food in a sea of unhealthy options.Some of the food options can get pricey (salmon with all the extra add ons) but the menu is also super customizable so it's more than possible to maximize your dollar spend.Personally, for me, it's an excellent lunch option especially with the order ahead option. But I do really appreciate they expanded hours to 7pm so I may also stop by for an early dinner very soon.San Antonio could really use a few more health concious options like this place. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Stop what you’re doing and get over here as soon as possible! This has to be my new favorite spot. The salmon was amazing! Don’t skip out on the sweet potato cupcakes! I’m still dreaming about them.Vegetarian options: Many options for vegetarians.Dietary restrictions: Excellent options for people that are gluten-free and/or dairy free.

I was amazed with the blackened lemon pepper chicken and the Mac and cheese was delicious!!!!Pure joy salmon with the rice, veggies, and salad were delicious and I added the garlic butter shrimp. We also had the cupcakes. Definitely coming back and curious to try more healthy food.

Delicious, nutritious, and bomblicious is what I can describe my visit here at sweet yams. The quality of the food was superb and everything was fresh. The blackened chicken was cooked to perfection and the vegetables as well. I will come back in the future to try more items of their menu when I am back in town!
