Roasted N’ Rad

Their breakfast burrito was delicious, especially the fried yucca chips! The menu said it had scrambled tofu inside but it was clearly JUST Egg instead (not complaining though!). Highly recommended.

Generous portions, all vegan

Roasted and Raw offers casual dining with a variety of vegan, bowl, and pasta options. We ordered burritos and burgers to go.

Although the store was fairly empty, the wait was long. I could see the staff was working hard in the open kitchen, so I was surprised by the delay. (I realize they also do deliveries, which might have been a factor.)

I had one of the burritos and was disappointed to find that it was about 90% rice. Nothing wrong with rice per se, but I did expect a little more of my chosen protein and beans to complement it. None of us loved the food.

Given the glowing reviews, maybe it was just an off day?

R&R shares space with a juice/smoothie bar. The juices and smoothies were five stars!

New Oakland favorite, please try this place!

After trying this place it immediately went to the top of my list and I want to come back again tomorrow! I got a quinoa bowl with sweet orange sauce and BBQ carnitas, it came with the most delicious fresh veggies and felt so light & healthy. You'd think that one flavor would overpower the other since sweet orange and BBQ are both fairly intense flavors, but here it was perfect and went together nicely. Portion was large, I saved some for later. Another great menu item is their burger, it's fantastic and even comes with yuca fries which were a nice surprise. Empanadas are great too, and there are cookies and muffins for dessert. Another big benefit to eating here is that they have a smoothie place connected to them called "Powered by Pure" (you need to be rang up separately, but literally just two registers next to one another). I'm not a drink/smoothie person but gave the Peach Cobbler shake a shot and was blown away. I was expecting it to be too heavy or too sweet, but again it was very light and fresh. Everything far exceeded my expectations. Staff is very friendly too!

Pros: Also a smoothie/juice place, Fully vegan fresh, healthy, and tasty, Offers desserts!

Cons: No cons at all

💪🏾

I thought we would need to travel to LA again for a phenomenal vegan meal like Jackfruit Cafe. However, Roasted and Raw proved us wrong. The fries were seasoned, and the empanadas were out of this world.

Delicious and Diverse

This was our second time there and we loved all we tried so far. The menu has a diverse offering of raw and cooked vegan meals. The staff is friendly and the place is clean. We will definitely become regulars.

Best Vegan Food in Oakland

This place was not only professional, clean, and friendly but the food was hands down some of the best I’ve had among everywhere I’ve eaten.

Alfredo penne was delicious, added some hot sauce to peak the heat and it had me considering 2nds.

The kale salad took the prize though with the dressing and house made chickin combo! Omg.

Pros: Cleanliness , Seating , THE FOOD

Cons: Nothing, they are perfect.

Delicious

This place is amazing! Had the Pad Thai which was raw and so good! Just opened in its new location on 14th Street and is one of my new faves!


Updated: came back to try lasagna and chorizo empanadas! Both were a big hit!

Nice food, friendly service

The orange teriyaki wok with chick'n was great. The veggies were cooked really well and had a nice grilled taste. The empanada and the smoky black bean burger were both good.

Well seasoned/ Flavorful

The place is still kind of a pop up (take out) but they do have 3 small tables you can sit and eat your food outside on. Everything is seasoned to perfection. Took a friend for her birthday and we tried the Mac and cheese the walnut based empanadas one of the bowls and the mushroom stroganoff. Everything was seasoned so good. I was hoping they were opened on Sunday so I could get food to go for my family the next day but unfortunately they are closed only opened Thursday- Saturday. Will definitely be back. Need to try the breakfast. Please go support keep them business. Staff is friendly also.

Pros: All vegan , Very flavorful

Cons: Closed sun-wed , Limited seating

Delicious!

We ordered the chickpea ragout, mushroom stroganoff, and orange teriyaki with fried vegan chicken and it was so so delicious! Very filling. The only downside is we had to wait in the cold for 30 minutes but they are new and hopefully will improve on that. The food was worth the wait!

Pros: Great chicken , Very filling

Cons: Long wait , Little pricey
