Yum! And has parking!

Great spot that popped up out of nowhere between the convention center and the company I work for. Visiting Atlanta, and needed a quick, vegan lunch. It hit the spot.

I had the Chinese takeout bowl. It's a lot of food, and was tasty. I mean, it's not the best vegan meal I've ever had, but it sure was nice!

Pros: Tasty, Quick, More than 1 vegan option

Cons: Not a vegan restaurant

Heavy Dressing Please!

If I could eat upbeat every day of my life I would. The agave tofu is my fave. So many dressing I can choose from too! It's all so fresh. I've never picked out a bad piece of food from my bowl.

Five stars!

I have been coming to Upbeet ever since they first opened. I love the variety of veggies and plant-based proteins they carry. They always give you a huge portion too.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Good portions

Cons: No nutritional information available

Love this place!

I always have to get the Vegan Bowl here when I’m in Atlanta. It comes with kale, quinoa, spicy chickpeas, spicy tofu (the best!), mango, and sesame seed. I swap out the dressing for the spicy lime chipotle dressing. One of of my all time favorite meals!

Pros: So many vegan options, Best spicy tofu, Great vibe

The chipotle lime dressing is a hit!

I used to work down the street and went almost weekly. I love making my own bowl here… the tofu is on POINT! But all of the veggies are delicious, I really really love upbeet! I would give them 5 stars if I could.

Super delicious, even if cringingly millennial

Let me start by saying Upbeet feels kind of like the cliche that millennial decor is becoming — triangle shaped mirrors, all white and wood minimalism, health is wealth, etc. It’s a beautiful building and has a small patio area. Now, with all that said:

This place is insanely delicious. Lots of premade bowls, salads, smoothie options, but also the option of building/customizing your own. (If you customize, watch out, it can get $$ fast!) But you get a large amount of food so make sure you’re hungry, or maybe split with someone/take some of it home.

My fiancé and I have been twice, and both times I got the aloha bowl (rice, mango, jalapeño, coconut, macadamia nuts, avocado, scallions, ginger miso dressing add kale) with tofu instead of tuna—highly recommend their tofu!! Very well flavored and tasty. But I love that bowl, it’s great when you’re wanting something pokè-esque/sweet and salty.

I think when I go back next time I might venture out and try the vegan taco salad... or I may just get the same thing 🙃

Bowls

I had the Chinese takeout bowl because I didn’t know it was possible swap stuff - FYI it is possible. They’re flexible. The bowl was great. I’ll return to try something else or a combination of things.

Great on the go spot

You can customize any bowl and they also have smoothie options, but I actually love their already-on-the-menu Vegan bowl! Great flavor combinations.

Pros: Lots of customizable options, Good for non vegan friends too, Great tofu

Cons: Long lines at time

Worth the trip! So yummy

Basically, Upbeet gives you bougie, SoCal vibes in a West Midtown ATL environment and I love it. First time there I ordered a customized salad w/ avocado and other toppings and I LOVED it 😛 They also have an attractive smoothie & other items section (ex. avocado toast) that is lovely! I got a pink looking smoothie bowl w/ berries and it’s so delicious. They also offer Kombucha drinks and other healthy to go items in an open fridge area. This place has a line, so be prepared (;

Pros: Customizable, delicious vegan salads, Smoothie bowls!

Cons: Line is long

Delicious food!

My bowl was worth the long wait in line! I was pleased to see the amount of vegan options.

I had a bowl with rice, spinach, cukes, tomatoes, three grain tempeh, sweet potatoes, onions, scallions, sunflower seeds, and cashew lime dressing. It was incredible!

Pros: Many vegan options including tofu and tempeh, Friendly staff, Designated vegan bowls on menu

Cons: Busy!!!, Serves animal products

Great food

Been wanting to try this place since I heard about it. Great vegan options, many types of grains, roasted vegetables, toppings, and mostly vegan dressing's. You can order off the menu or a build your own bowl. The vegans and non-vegans in our party all loved this place.

Great place!

I absolutely love this place. There are so many ways to build a bowl, from whole grains like brown rice and quinoa to a variety of different organic greens. The agave, sriracha tofu is delicious. Portion sizes are filling. I can't say enough about this place. I could go multiple times a week.

Pros: There are many vegan extras like tempeh bacon bits

one of the best salads I have ever had!

They just opened and need to put hours, and phone on their website, their FB pretense is just as spartan also habe a few haters as usual so if you are reading this you know to stick with Yelp, Trip advisor and Happy Cow. I post these for YOU so you have maybe a testable unbiased feedback (yes YOU!!! ;-)

As you arrive they also really need better signage so travellers and taxi and Uber folks can find them???? WAZE and Google.maps puts them IN the intersection. Took a $38 taxi from Buckhead in heavy heavy traffic.


SKIP TO HERE FOR.THE REVIEW; Okay enough bashing the newbie just open folks. CLEAN open and inviting layout, signage, bathrooms etc etc. The serving and prep area is smartly laid out, the greens on the wall in bins look like a modern hyponic garden....awesome display.

All the products and produce are super fresh looking and even the meats, tofu, shrimp etc etc look very nice. All organic etc etc. The menu clear and well labelled for GF, Vegan, and others. I tried to trip them up but they know the foods and terms and imgredients. (2 weeks old so thats pretty good hiring and training)

All kind of pre-designed Grain bowls, salads, and combos......so no thinking or make it up as you go.

I got the Very Vegan. W/kale, quinoa, chickpeas, pomegranate seeds, sunflower seeds, fresh lemon squeeze, and a wonderful house made cashew dressing with a perfect amount of agave sriracha tofu.

Here is the real deal. BEST SALAD I HAVE EVER EATEN. Not just a salad a fantastic healthy meal.

Not sure if it was the tasty spicey tofu or the cashew dressing, or all the ingredients and the juicy pomegranate seeds....damn good eats!!!!

The servers and counter folks were cheery and hugely helpful. I was there early evenimg but it ramped up big time as I type this. They might need some more people for peak times because they did stack up a bit, I would not.habe minded now that I have been here a 15 or 20 minute line. (Okay I am lying lines suck but.imunderstand they have gotton popular because its good food/stuff. Management pay attention this is critical)

Ok pictures here somewhere!!!

Pros: awesome organic and wonderful produce and ingredie

Cons: kinda getting too popular and need more staff at p

Deelish!

Went here for lunch with a friend- We waited in line for a really long time. It was well worth the wait, though! We were both raving about our meals. I got the macro bowl which had a really good sauce on it. The food was clean and fresh and invigorating. I'll be back!

GREAT Vegan Options!

I really love this place for several reasons: 1. Many vegan organic options. 2. The food is delicious. 3. Reasonably priced. 4. They serve a lot of food! You get a bowl with your choice of a grain and/or a green, then you get to choose from many hot and cold toppings. There are dozens and probably hundreds of delicious combinations!! They do have designed bowls, which you can modify because EVERY order is built in front of you, or design your own bowl.
This is now one of my favorite restaurants, I've been 3 times this week already!

Pros: Many organic vegan options, Fresh and delicious ingredients, High quality & quantity food at a reasonable price

Cons: They do carry meat, fish and dairy
