Favorite restaurant in SF - Edit
Ananda Fuara is my favorite restaurant in San Francisco. Without exception, every meal I’ve had there has been excellent. It’s a few blocks from my apartment and is THE best place to go in the city. The service is also excellent and it’s just a treasure. Highly recommended.
Read morePros: Great service, Healthy space, Awesome food
Cons: Closest/Best parking is on Mission, They’re closed on Mondays (so don’t forget)

Favorite for friendly service and killer cake! - Edit
I love this place. The staff are always so friendly and helpful. The menu has a ton of lovely options from burgers and tacos to salads and vegetable dishes, but my favorite is the neat loaf!!! I usually get it with a side of veggies instead of potatoes because it's really filling. Or I eat half the portion, save the other half for lunch the next day and make room for dessert. They cakes are to die for! Chocolate anything is good of course, but then they have other delights like carrot cake and once a cardamom rose water cake. And they have "gelato" which tastes like ice cream to me. I once got a big slice of chocolate layer cake with a scope of vegan chocolate peanut butter oreo frozen delight on the side. It's an oasis next to Civic Center and I often go there before a show at the Billy Graham theater. Get a giant cookie to go and sneak it in!

Great Options - Edit
Parking is a pain but the food was well worth it. Took my husband who is a meat eater and we both got different vegetarian meals. Both were delicious! We were eating off of each other’s plates. Took home a piece of cake which I refused to share :-)

Good food - Edit
When I was there the building was undergoing a renovation, but it was not difficult to find. The starters are yummy, especially the vegan quesadilla and the vegan nuggets. I also ordered the beyond burger and it was good.

one of my favorite restaurants - Edit
Many vegan options. Lovely serene atmosphere. Pleasant staff. The Neatloaf can be made vegan and is delicious. A good choice for dinner before the opera or a concert, or a weekend brunch. They give a 10% discount for San Francisco Vegetarian Society members.

Great Veg/Vegan option MidMarket/Civic Center - Edit
As relatively new committed Vegans, Sunday Brunch had become a challenge, especially when going out with non-Vegan friends.
Read moreAnanda Fuara is our new go to brunch place. It has plenty of options for both Vegans and Vegetarians.
I'd ignore the reviews criticizing the place because it isn't 'Vegan' enough. Just about every item can be made Vegan if requested. I guess the folks who make that compliant only go out to eat with Vegans. We think a place like this is perfect for 'easing' folks into a Vegan diet.
Pros: Great vibe, food, and service. , Twitter, Dolby, and Uber's headquarters are across, so customer mix is quite interesting during the we
Cons: Civic Center neighborhood is a bit sketchy but not, dangerous

Best vegan food I've had! - Edit
Ananda Fuara is by far my favorite veg-friendly restaurant in the Bay Area! I'd give it more than five stars if I could. Every menu item I've had has been absolutely incredible. I enjoyed the spinach artichoke ravioli on my first visit and the vegan-style neatloaf on my second, both of which were so filling and delicious! The chocolate, banana chocolate chip, and carrot cakes are AMAZING, and all vegan! Definitely the best vegan desserts I've ever had. Highly recommend. I'll be back ASAP!

The location is very convenient for me, so I often pick up meals. The food can be prepared vegan, and is wholesome and tasty. It's not the fanciest or in highest echelons of veggie restaurants, but good.

One of my Favorites in SF out of 3 in SF - Edit
I love the variety of food they serve here. Unfortunately i don't get to go as often as I like to this restaurant, but i am never disappointed. This last time we loved the Portobello Quesadilla…. They offer such a variety of dishes (including daily specials) that everyone can be pleased… everything from down home, mexican, Italian and Indian. Only downside of this restaurant is if you are driving a car it can be a little difficult to park. but i try to go at times that there would be parking open nearby...

One of my favorite places for amazing vegan food in SF - Edit
After my first visit, I quickly become a loyal patron at Ananda Fuara. They have a wide and creative menu with regular specials. Their veggie burger is tops and I love their hummus. I would suggest this place at top 3 vegan restaurants in San Francisco. It's also conveniently located.

friendly, tasty, lots of vegan options inc. amazing desserts - Edit
We would highly recommend Ananda Fuara: tasty, varied menu with big portion sizes. More than half of the menu was vegan, and all the desserts!
Read moreThe staff were lovely, especially our server Daniel. Those good vibes are showing!
Try the Yogi tea for a spicy pick-me-up. Samosas were our favourite appetiser, and the vegan burger.
The decor and the vibe are homely and relaxed. Prices are very reasonable.
Pros: lots of variety on menu, generous portion sizes , Vegan cakes, ice cream and sorbet!

Long time occassional patron - Edit
I've been going to Anada Fuara since the 80's when they were on Taravel Street. The new location is smaller, so you may need to wait for a seat during popular times.
Read moreThe food is delicious; my favorite is the Neat Loaf, which unfortunately is not vegan. But they do have several vegan options, and vegan items are marked as such on the menu (some items are not, for example the curry sauce is sometimes vegan and sometimes not, you have to ask each day).
Pros: Great food!, Funky vibe.
Cons: Not a pleasant corner to wait at if there is a lin

Eccentric spot - Edit
I'd been looking forward to trying Ananda Fuara - for their vast menu of vegetarian options and well-rated chocolate cake! There's not much else around in the direct vicinity of it, and you'd miss it if you weren't looking out for it. Yet they seemed to get very strong traffic the whole time we were there (during the lunch hour on Saturday). It's a very zen-type ambience - certainly not fancy, but inviting. The waitress was in a sari and the staff seemed quite laid back.
Read moreThe menu had a huge amount of options - from smoothies and salads to veggie burgers and many Indian-inspired dishes. They also feature a large tea menu and a full dessert case (many of which were vegan)! We both got the Neatloaf Dinner, as we'd heard strong reviews about it. Definitely a good portion size for your money! Their site describes it as, "Our specialty! A juicy loaf made from grains, eggs, ricotta cheese, tofu and spices blended together and baked, topped with a tangy tomato-based sauce. Served with mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy. Now vegan upon request." We both had the vegan version - it was very hearty. We each got two large slabs of neatloaf, along with a mountain of mashed potatoes covered in their thick mushroom gravy. The "tangy tomato-based sauce" was more sweet than tangy to me, which would probably be the one thing I'd change about the dish. My boyfriend asked for hot sauce to put on his, which I think balanced the flavor a bit more. The mashed potatoes were good, though they didn't have a lot of spice to them. If I'd more evenly distributed the gravy throughout the potatoes, this may have counteracted that. However, they could have used a bit of garlic, onion and pepper. The mushroom gravy was terrific - generous hunks of mushrooms throughout and a good serving of it. Nice to taste the neatloaf with a bite of the potato and gravy.
For dessert, we had to try the chocolate cake. We were delivered another generous portion, however, the cake wasn't complemented by whipped cream/ice cream, etc. (I'd have appreciated a vegan topping here). I generally prefer frostings/fudgey centers to the actual cake. This one had a fair amount of frosting, and it was a nice texture without being too oily or buttery with a nice, rich chocolate flavor. The cake part itself was good - certainly moist and made well - but is just not my favorite part of the dessert, regardless of where I get a cake.
Overall, fast and friendly service with reasonable prices.

Really good food for veg and vegan. Friendly (and sometimes not too fast) staff. Peaceful environment (even in the midst of the not-so-peaceful neighborhood). All for a reasonable price.

Average but I'm happy it's there - Edit
This is vegetarian food for the masses. For the lunch crowd that needs a sandwich. It is not very creative or amazing, but it's the solution if you're in downtown and are hungry, need to eat NOW!
Read moreI love the fact that they have Teecino lattes. That is awesome! With almond milk! Where else can you have that?
I have had the nutloaf, curries, salads, it was always pretty good but nothing fantastic. I like the meditative vibe....that Shri Chinmoy was an inspiring dude.
Pros: it's right there, teecino lattes, nice folks
Cons: not an inspiring menu, lots of dairy and gluten

Chill veggie spot - Edit
We were glad to see that we had a vegetarian restaurant right across from our hotel. We shared the tofu scramble (which comes with your choice of 5 different flavour combos)and the gingerbread pancakes. Both were yummy. Quick too!

popular place for food - Edit
This is one of the few restaurants that non veg folks love to go for food.
Read moreI love their Indian food and their fresh salad. Mash potato and mushroom gravy is what I order all the time. The desserts look better than they taste. Most are not vegan. Wish the waiters will dress as nice as the ladies wearing colorful SARIs.

Nice Vegetarian Place - Edit
Ananda's would not be one of the first places I recommend in SF, but my experience there was pleasant and the food was pretty good.
Read moreI tried the curry wrap made with brown rice and the curry of the day which was a mushroom curry. It was pretty tasty, and came with a side of pasta salad, which was good also. My husband had the vegan ravioli which he seemed pleased with.
He also got a slice of banana coconut pie which was nice as well.
I would go back to Ananada's, and am giving it 4 stars because it is a nice, mostly healthy, veg place.
Pros: All vegetarian, Good curry, Casual but nice atmosphere
Cons: Not all vegan, Slightly bland

quiet and simple - Edit
after our volunteer day at sf pride 2011 my partner and i ate at ananda fuara having seen it last year right close to where we were setting up. we had the hummus wrap sandwich and the neatloaf dinner, and both were excellent. neither were full of sugar, or fat or salt, so those of you insisting that the flavors of foods at ananda are bland, well there is your answer. healthy foods frequently dont taste like moms cooking now do they?
Read morethe space was bright and clean, the wait staff was on time and efficient and the bathrooms were excellent, clean and large.
easy to get to and well worth the trip if you have to make it a destination. ill eat there again any time i am in the area. coming away from lunch with a small bag of fresh vegan pastries and cookies is always a great way to finish a meal. try the peanut butter cookie. vegan and though not so low in fat, super tasty!
Pros: vegan baked goods, interior
Cons: parking

Decent but they need to add more vegan options - Edit
I had heard good things about this restaurant and decided to give it a try for lunch today. As I came closer I saw a waiting line going out on the street, so obviously the place is that popular! While waiting I made friends with someone in front of me, and we decided to simply share a table to cut the wait time down, which turned out very nice.
Read moreThe menu is a bit disappointing if you are vegan. Most options are vegetarian and many come with dairy. Nothing wrong with that, but in a true veg restaurant I always hope to find something that the mainstream restaurants don't offer, and not just the veg Indian curries and cheese sandwiches that I can find anywhere else. So I settled for a vegan version of the "neatloaf", which they served with a great fresh salad as a lunch special. This was a very tasty, light lunch at a good price.
I would come back and try something else, but personally I would gravitate more to one of the Asian veg places that have more vegan dishes by default, since many Asians don't care much for dairy.
Pros: tasty "neatloaf", great salad, freindly staff
Cons: need more vegan options

I THOUGHT I WAS ON CANDID CAMERA - IT WAS THAT BAD - Edit
Read moreThis place was so bad, i got sick. I had hummus which was decent....Then they recommended me this big glob of beets and some other vegetables that was so horrible, I had to go throw up. The place smelled, the waiter smelled, the service was slow and impolite.
If you are vegan or non vegan, stay away from this place. It is in the worst part of town too so it is dangerous as well. I couldn't get out of there fast
Cons: terrible taste, smelled, awful service

Very casual place. Prices are reasonable depending on what you order. All food and drinks we had were excellent. Vegan neatloaf sandwich, falafel wrap and soup of the day- lentil were great. Red tea and soy chai latte were delicious. Staff was friendly. Will definitely go back when in town!

Now with enhanced vegan options - Edit
Having previously lamented Ananda Fuara's failure to use vegan ingredients even where it would be simple to do so, I was pleasantly surprised when I stopped in today to be handed a menu with vegan options highlighted. I didn't actually count, but it appeared the majority of their offerings can now be made vegan.
Read moreAnd when I ordered a neatloaf sandwich, vegan with ciabatta bread, my waitress informed me that all their breads are now vegan.
I see others have commented appropriately on the fact that this is a Sri Chimnoy enterprise. As I noted in my previous review, this is perhaps most evident in the saris that all the women who work there wear (while the men wear nothing special).
Otherwise, I didn't see anything egregiously wrong in preceding reviews.
Pros: vegan options, pleasant atmosphere

Great, Consistent Vegetarian ood - Edit
I love Ananda Fuara, even though it is run by a religious group (one that is truly based on compassion though). I'm Atheist. The food is very consistent and fresh. I go there quite a bit for lunch since it is pretty close to my work. They have my favorite veggie burger. I also love the Soy Chicken Salad Sandwich, samosas, dal (very good version), raviolis, neatloaf sandwich, Marathoner smoothies, and desserts. They have great specials like the Ginger Tofu in peanut sauce.

Last ditch effort when nothing else is available.. - Edit
Nothing too special about this place. Whenever I visit San Francisco..this place tends to be a standby if our flight leaves early - because it always seems to be on the way to the airport. I can grab a few vegan pastry type snacks and eat 'em later on the plane. The food is very bland..but once there was a mulligatawny type soup that was excellent. I always hope to find it again when visiting. This place really is a last ditch effort if you can't get to any other restaurant or store in town.
