This place is amazing! Completely vegan and so many options! From cheese steaks to fish & chips. I got the BBQ Chicken pizza and mozzarella sticks! I haven’t been able to find vegan mozzarella sticks so I was so excited to try these. And they did not disappoint! The pizza was loaded and really delicious. Prices aren’t necessarily cheap, but the portions are big! I got a cheese steak bomb yesterday and it was definitely the size of a subway foot long sandwich.
They have loads of vegan cakes, cheesecakes, and ice cream as well! I got the S’mores Cheesecake which was amazing. Texture and taste was just like a normal cheesecake.
Really nice & helpful staff and owners. Can’t wait to come back!

BEST VEGAN FOOD EVER. This is a true gem. So much outdoor seating with a beautiful view of the ocean. I have loved everything I have ordered- Mac and cheese pizza, steak bomb, mozzarella sticks. There are so many cake options, too! The owner is a sweetheart. He came over and checked on our food. We told him how much we love vegan donuts and he whipped up some delicious donut holes and fudge sauce (not on the menu)!!! I have never had a better dining experience. 10/10.

Counter service classic beach food - vegan!
Wide variety of classic American beach fast food done vegan at this new store. Still newly opened when I first visited, the staff was learning the point of sale system (taught by the enthusiastic and proud owner). Some indoor seating, lots of space outside on the patio. Limited car parking in back of the store. There's lots of parking along Quincy Shore Drive and I'm sure the store will be getting a lot of foot traffic.
We tried the crab cakes, fish & chips, and macaroni and cheese. The crab cakes were the clear winner. They were quite flavorful and moist. The french fries and cole slaw side were also excellent. The fish & chips were also very good. The mac and cheese didn't quite gel as a dish, it was more like pasta with cheese melted on it than pasta with a cheese sauce. For each order the portion size was large.
I'm looking forward to returning and trying the lobster roll and the fried clams. Many of the appetizers also looked worth a return trip - buffalo cauliflower and vegan empanadas for instance.
One negative is the to go containers appeared to be styrofoam. Maybe these could be swapped out for something a little more environmentally friendly?
It's great to have a very well executed vegan restaurant on Quincy Shore Drive. I'm looking forward to exploring more of the menu in future visits.

Steak bomb is exactly what I needed all these years of being vegan. Crab cakes are large and flavorful, the texture is on point and the coleslaw is the best I have had (not usually a fan of coleslaw). Looking forward to the soft serve and to see if they get jalapeño poppers. Staff is very friendly, the tables and view outside are the best of any vegan/vegetarian restaurant as its across from the beach. Parking out back is sparse so on a busy day you might have to park at the beach spots across the street.

NE style Beach food, but vegan? You know I'm gonna try it! I'm happy to know that this place exists because sometimes you need some nonmeat carbalicious beach snacks. I support what they are doing here so will add an extra star. Even tho personally it's not really my type of food place, it feels unfair to choose to go here knowing that and then only give 3 stars. On the other hand, beach snacks from a shack don't have to be mediocre! I felt the cblt was ok, messy and had way too much beach roll. Prob should have gotten it in a wrap but forgot! They have cheese so also got the cheesey bread for my friend who reported that it was exactly that. I would like to try the crab cakes or lobster roll but I chickened out as a lifelong vegetarian, so will have to come back! The place is def overpriced for what it is but maybe there is a reason for that? I'm not sure bc the ingredients seem very basic. Realistically, wouldn't have chosen to go here if I weren't veg or if it wasn't veg. 3 stars, with deep gratitude.

First time coming here and it was just ok. Not good, or great, just ok. I got the wings in buffalo sauce that came with mediocre greasy fries, that I could have made better at home, and a sad single bite of coleslaw all for $17.99 and they are also stingy about their faucet water and not wanting to give a free cup that I suggest you bring your own water bottle if you don’t want to contribute to plastic waste. They also do not recycle.
What the meal was served on speaks for itself too, in the second picture. 🤮 Gross, a new place that uses old cookware from the 2010’s that looks like it’s from an old Chuck E. Cheese that went out of business.
I may return but not for their sad platters, maybe I’ll just get the wings. Although I wouldn’t spend more than $7 on 5small vegan wings. They are good but not that good or filling.
Scared to see the other dishes as they had no pictures of anything when ordering. Skip the fries and any mention of coleslaw.
My meal also took 20 mins to come out but honestly I think they forgot about it.
