Yes!! - Edit
Finally a vegan chicken sandwich and classic vegan picnic foods! I never thought I’d have a vegan version of potato salad that tastes as delicious as this one. Highly recommend!

I had the Caesar salad with tofu and added wing sauce. The tofu had a great texture. I would have thought it was seitan. Perfect amount of dressing. For dessert, I had a GF strawberry empanada that was heavenly!

The Spicy Sando with Chipotle Mayo is the way to go here. Genuinely, everything I've tried on the menu in my 10 or so visits has been great! The staff are friendly and willing to recommend new menu items to try.

NCMC is delicious! - Edit
Best Caesar salad in the west (we just tried such salads in a bunch of restaurants in California and Arizona, but none came close). Elizabeth is basically magic. Everything she makes is delicious. We have tried lots, and it’s all good, but my faves are the Chicken and waffles and the Caesar salad.

Their food is great, love the mashed potatoes and their Thanksgiving leftover sandwich was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten and wish it was regularly available.

Delicious! - Edit
I loved the NCMC Sando—it was delicious! Hard to believe everything was vegan! My only wish is that it could be made gluten-free for those celiacs out there (they’re missing out).

Their po boy is so delicious! I keep trying to branch out but I just keep coming back to that sandwich. More restaurants should use soy curls

Delicious! - Edit
We not only enjoy this amazing handcrafted vegan food, we love working with with them! Delivering Kombucha and seeing the staff always makes our day. We always have to stay and grab lunch while we are there. Those Classic tenders or the Chicken Sando are NEXT LEVEL!

Delicious lunch spot for hot sandwiches - Edit
This place is an absolute gem -- tucked in an unassuming little building in an area not abundant in vegan dining choices, it's like an oasis of deliciousness in this part of town. Inside there's an abundant orange, sunny, modern, casual vibe. Don't miss the signature "nobody calls me chicken" sandwich that the place is named after--it was the such a beloved and popular menu item at sister-restaurant Vegos that they built an entire second restaurant around it. If you like spice, order the "hot" version with chipotle mayo--with mashed potatoes and gravy (you KNOW you loved those mash pots at KFC as a kid and probably haven't eaten them in years because you're vegan --this sando with mashed reminds me of a way better version of that combo). If you want a little taste of "sweet," the same patty can be ordered as tenders, over a big, delicious waffle. The chick'n is tofu based, but it's the best breaded vegan chicken I've ever eaten (and it's AMAZING that it's house-made and not frozen factory fake-meat). The green-chile queso-drenched french fries are also amazing. Try the things that the place is famous for, and you'll have an amazing meal! A+ for fast-casual!
Read morePros: House-made vegan chick'n patty and tenders, Fabulous mashed potatoes & gravy side
Cons: Restroom outside the building (but it's clean)

Classic - Edit
The people working were really friendly! I got the Buffalo sandwich, fries with fry sauce, a Cesar salad, and the veggies side. It was pretty predictable, but all done well--the pickles in the sandwich were like the *gourmet* kind, fries were a great texture, and the veggies were super fresh, which I've never experienced at a restaurant before. There was both indoor and outdoor seating, and I got my to-go order within 10 minutes--would totally come back! Only beef (lol) is that half the fountain drinks were out....ended up with a sprite when I wanted a lemonade but I'm sure they would've tried to comp it or something if I'd said something.

Amazing fast casual vegan spot - Edit
Love the atmosphere. Bright and colorful. Inviting. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about all their options.
Read moreBuffalo Sando is amazing. Great texture in the tofu and the flavors are on point. The Philly was good. Really liked the flavor and texture of the seitan, but the rest of the toppings to it were just OK. The green chili cheez fries are just a must have side.
Pros: Friendliness, Atmosphere

Good Food - Edit
Great food. We had the Po'Boy, regular fries, sweet potato fries, Sando w/ranch, and the BBQ & Slaw.
Read moreThe BBQ sandwich really didn't have much BBQ flavor at all and wasn't warm. Other than that, no complaints, except for a little on the pricey side and not a ton of options

Friendly staff. However our food was lukewarm and bland. I was so excited to try this sandwich. Owners need to work on acoustics super noisy.

Loved This Place! - Edit
Wow… such good food! We tried the Po’ Boy, the Philly Cheesesteak, Tenders, Mashed Potatoes and Gravy, green chili cheese fries…Everything was fantastic, but that Po’ Boy was well worth the trip from Rio Rancho for. We’ll be back. Oh! And the carrot cake… you’ve gotta try that!
Read moreThere was a hang-up with the waffle iron, so I wasn’t able to get the Pumpkin Waffle I wanted, but they were so sweet about it, and more than compensated for the trouble.
Highly recommend!
