While the sharing plates offer tantalizing flavors like the Kyoto Summer Salad and Smoked Stack Burger, some items fall short in execution and portion size, leaving guests a bit hungry. However, the warm and accommodating service, coupled with unique touches like infused water, enhances the overall experience. Although some may find it pricey, the quality of the dishes, especially the exceptional tarts available on weekends, makes Afterglow a must-visit for plant-based cuisine enthusiasts seeking something different.
We clearly over-ordered... We were excited to try their menu but it was a bit too raw for me. I prefer my sweet potato fries to be, well, fried (and definitely not soggy). The gluten-free bun is made with rice, which is unusual but really good. Their lentil flaxseed nuggets are amazing, especially with that garlic cashew ‘aioli’ sauce.
The restaurant will be closing its doors on November 30th. I adore their food and the ambiance. Anything topped with their vegan cheese sauce is scrumptious, like their crispy sweet potato fries. There is no frying done here, and in general, the menu leans towards healthier options without sacrificing flavor. Don't miss out on trying their TomYum Zoodles, housemade dips, and, of course, the cheese sauce before it's too late!
Loved the cauliflower! Also got the beet juice which was nice
The food at this restaurant is delicious and the atmosphere is relaxed. I enjoyed the meatball starter and the taco main dish, both of which were very tasty. The portion sizes were just right and the staff were very friendly.
We are both vegans and were excited to try a vegan restaurant but unfortunately I can't recommend this place. It is nicely decorated and has a relaxed vibe and friendly staff but our food was really not great. They don't seem to have an option to deep fry the food, so for example the sweet potato fries were actually boiled or maybe cooked in a pan. The lentil nuggets tasted like uncooked falafel (again, not deep fried) rather than nuggets... There was a mix up with our starters which isn't a big issue, but it doesn't help creating a better impression either. The salad as a main was good though I didn't like the home made vegan feta it didn't taste like feta at all, so why call it that and raise expectations? In conclusion: for the quality offered the prices are way too steep and we won't be going here again. I don't think it was an isolated experience because when we bought some vegan cake this morning and told the salesperson we'd been to Afterglow, they immediately shrugged and said it was known not to be very good.
