Tried yet another location with The Boy. I think this might be my favorite location in terms of layout and bonus! It's the closest one to home. The staff at all three locations I've tried have been friendly and enthusiastic and the service is fast. I had a buffalo "chicken" (seitan) twister wrap with chipotle sauce and fries. The Boy had chili fries (we discovered he doesn't like vegan cheese, so we asked them to skip that). He also had some peach ice tea, which we were pleasantly surprised to discover was unsweetened. The wrap was FANtasic and inspired us to try to make the same at home. The fries were also really good. They seemed like they might be baked rather than fried as they weren't very greasy and we loved the seasoning on them - seemed to be a mix of salt, cayenne, paprika, and maybe something else. The boy equally enjoyed the chili, though he did complain a little that is was a bit watery. I ordered water, but I had him refill his cup with the blackberry lavender lemonade so that I could try a taste. YUM! It's a good thing I didn't order a drink because I couldn't downed three cups of that stuff!

I just love this place! It's the type of place it after you're finished with your meal feel really good about yourself and being in the fabulous state of Colorado you potentially want to go out and work out and be active. Often people eat to fill themselves rather than to fuel themselves so I find their healthy options, and gluten free alternatives awesome. They even have desserts available that I can indulge in. But a particular experience that I want to mention is how I am very pleased and thrilled by their honesty and professionalism. You see an absent-minded blonde moment I left my paycheck on the table and somehow they cross reference me through my receipt or my rewards card and contacted me through my email to let me know that they had found it and it was secured in their safe. though there may not have been any real danger or catastrophe, I appreciate the quick manner in which they reached out to me and tried their utmost to resolve the situation and get the check back in my hands! Thank you very much!

If I was vegan this place would be a total gem... However, I am not vegan, and I do not plan on becoming vegan anytime soon, and that's not chicken!!! The service was not exceptional. We had a man helping us who just seemed blazed out of his mind. Luckily he didn't mess up our order, but he was very out of it. After ordering the food took about 15 minutes to come out which I found to be a little long of a wait. Because Native Foods is across the street from where I work I will probably be going back. However, next time I will not be ordering any "chicken"

First time to this chain restaurant. Was with a friend who needs to steer clear of gluten. This place has lots of options. I was not very hungry. I felt like there were not a lot of choices for a light appetite. I had a bowl of tortilla soup and it was very, very good. My friend had a summer special that had grilled avocado and he really liked it. Great friendly service. Loved the chalk art on the walls. Very cool. If I'd had more choices for a light meal I'd have give it 4 stars

Ah, Native Foods Cafe ... makes me feel weird because I feel like I'm eating meat sometimes, and it makes me uncomfortable. BUT, it's tasty. I recently fell in love with their seasonal Korean BBQ Sub (which is big enough for 2.5-3) and their Yo Amigo Taco Wrap (which is enough for 2). The Korean BBQ Sub does not taste "Korean", but it is packed with a whole lotta flavor (and also reminds me of a Banh Mi)! I really like the seeded baguettes that everything's sandwiched between; it's crunchy, yet soft and tames the crazy flavors down! The Yo Amigo Taco Wrap is tastes exactly what is sounds like: a taco in tortilla. The reason why I like this item is because there's a bit of zing to it from the chipotle sauce, which really adds a lot to the wrap! I will say, however, that the food has been consistently on the saltier end. Not just a little bit, but as if someone spilled the salt in the food and didn't bother to re-season kind of salty. The kind of salty that makes you want to drink water for the next 48 hours kind of salty. The salty where ... Alright, you get the point, right? Salty, salty. So, perhaps, I'll stop by another location to see if just this particular place with salt-loving cooks. Other than that, Native Foods is a nice treat to have, away from my standard steamed vegetables and fruits ...

Came here for dinner last night after work and it was busy, but not overly full of taking to long. We placed our order and the nice man at the counter forgot about our desserts and we said something so he gave us those and they never rang up our drinks we when asked for cups. We found a booth to sit in and never got a number for our food but that's okay we can just wave them down . The lady came out we couldn't tell if it was our food but she returned to the kitchen and then saw us and apologized but no big deal it's not her fault at all. We said we didn't receive a number and she said we were put on someone else's ticket for the number. The staff is friendly though. The chicken bacon avocado club .... Let me just say it might be my new favorite thing there ! Oh gosh for one their chicken is so amazing you would not know its fake ! Then topped with tofu bacon and fresh avocado and a great chipotle sauce ! With a side of French fries its a dream . The blueberry lemonade is one of my favorites as well I'm sad that's it's only seasonal. The blueberry crumble is also seasonally but it's huge and taste so fresh and fruity almost more of a great breakfast ! The chocolate ganache cupcake is great too. It's cold and in my opinion cake taste better cold when the frosting is cold ! It's rich and tasty ! Overall I will be back eager to try more.

Valentine Cupcake was ok. Nothing special. Actually disappointed a bit. Bland flavor just sugary itself. Decoration is cute though. Had chocolate chip cookie as well. I am allergic to nuts so I asked one of employees there to make sure, after purchasing, for it says chocolate chip on the wrapping but the receipt says 'peanut butter cookie'. Maybe cashier punched the wrong item button? Anyway, she said she will ask about the ingredients but she never came back to me! She passed my table on and on several times and even asked other folks- white people, everything ok or etc. Again, never to me either. Hello- am I not visible? Is this sort of racism? Not really pleasant experience. Will NOT go back this location unless they change their attitude.
(1)Hungry Gen D.
Although I really enjoy the Bistro Steak Sandwich, I do not like the fact that their menu changes all the time. The workers always have some sort of attitude problem that makes me feel uncomfortable especially since it is expensive for a "casual" place. Their food is good, but the workers always make feel like I do not want to be there. If they always had that sandwich that I like, I might think about giving this place 4 stars. I think it's "ok".
(3)Kelly R.
I'm still trying to enjoy vegan food. I had their version of a reuben....it was oddly good, but I wouldn't choose it over the real thing. That said, I'm intrigued and plan to return to try other things on the menu....
(3)Alissa R.
I was fortunate enough to be invited to the soft opening here, and boy was it a great one. I got to invite up to three of my friends, and we each got a ticket to try an appetizer, entree with a side, dessert, and a non-alcoholic drink. If you chose to imbibe on beer and or wine, they were only charging them at $2 bucks a pop, and those proceeds went to local charities. Off to a great start! The food was just as great as the other location I frequent in City Set. The service for such an event was exceptional, I can't wait to come back and experience more of it. Thank you so much Native foods. The complimentary meal was amazing, and there were so many leftovers that were much appreciated. This location will be another reason to visit that far south on Colorado blvd. I highly recommend you visit. Bring on more locations!
(5)Stella M.
Okay. I'm going to nudge up my rating. After eating there again today for lunch, I've decided they definitely deserve four stars. We ordered the Reuben and the seitan is really well done. We really enjoyed the potato salad as well. I still think they need to work on better salad choices and their tempeh, but they're sandwiches are really good.
(4)Briana B.
Great for quick vegan meals! The fermented bowl with the sauerkraut is great, though it may be an acquired taste. My husband loves the meatballs. Al of their salads are outstanding and hearty enough to call a meal. Great way to get people to try vegan for the first time!!
(4)Steve C.
I was really impressed. I had a Tuscan garbanzo soup and a Thai meatball bowl. The soup was fine. The bowl was outstanding, with crunchy seitan meatballs, steamed broccoli, with kale and other vegetables served on a bed of grains with a light sweet chili sauce. I was sad when I got to my final meatball. I think there were only four of those - another one would have been nice. But the dish was really special. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I had never heard of Native Foods, now I see there are three in Orange County. None are close by but I will make a trip for food this good.
(5)Jerremie S.
After numerous visits here I thought I should chime in. As a celiac with major gluten issues, I can honestly say I haven't had any problems here, though I've always let them know about the condition when ordering. They communicate the allergy info to the cooks immediately and generally let a manager know as well. The GF options are pretty limited, and the Baja "Chicken" Tacos are far and away my favorite. My bf and I both tried some kind of Mediterranean bowl once that was pretty awful tasting, but all of our other meals have been good and if you're just breaking into vegetarianism, their faux meats are about as good as they get and the staff at this location has been consistently cheerful and helpful with my questions. And DO subscribe to their loyalty program. They can look you up by your email every time you eat and it's gotten us $20 in bonus point kickbacks in the past 6 months. Every little bit helps ;)
(4)Josh A.
I loved this place. Walked in not knowing much about it. I was pleasantly surprised by how clean it was and how friendly the staff was. I'm not the most healthiest eater so I was a bit excited to try something plant based and healthy. Man, the food was so good. I had a chicken club sandwich that I would have thought was the real deal by taste and look. Amazing.
(5)Sean H.
Whoa, my first 5-star review. I am an avid meat-eater, but this place was delicious and HEALTHY. Got a bowl with Quinoa, Kale, Broccoli, roasted Red Peppers, delicious veggie meatballs, carrots, etc. It's not cheap, but pretty comparable to other places - and I'd say if you factor in the fact that you're getting a fresh, healthy, unique dish makes it well worth it.
(5)Christina T.
**CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES** Seriously the best I've ever had - especially with all these trendy cupcake shoppes and trucks. The airy-whipped light frosting is impossible to describe... it's like eating heaven. Then they went away :( but I have heard they're back??? Otherwise the food is too weird for me but then again I am not a vegan by any means. The only thing I thought was good was the balsamic dressing on the salad (and I've eaten regular non-cupcake food here three times) I realize this is not why people come to this uber-healthy place but I will only return to stock up on chocolate cupcakes if they return.
(3)Cielo G.
Vegan. Excellent selections. Friendly. Kale macro bowl is the best. The menu does have a few new items worth trying. Great location off I-25.
(5)Shanna K.
Overall, delicious food and good service. The servers here always go above and beyond, bringing out sides of ranch, refiling your drinks for you, making sure you like your meal, etc. Never a complaint about the service. My biggest challenge has been with corporate constantly changing the food and atmosphere -- they changed some of their foundational dishes (like completely rethinking their nachos), took crowd favorites off the menu, and have now stopped offering lemon slices and fresh mint for your drinks (one of my fav things about them), and no longer have daily specials where you can get a meal and a side for $9.95. Wish corporate would stop messing around with a good thing.
(4)MC C.
Bacon Avo club was like nothing I've had before. This was the first time the meat subsistute was supposed to mimic meat but I liked it. The "chicken" had a great crust and flavor baked in and the sandwich was put together well. The blueberry lemonade was just about the best thing I've ever had. The restaurant definitely needed to be wiped down and their computer systems are pretty unreliable but I'd go back here for lunch any day.
(4)Brian S.
Absolutely legit vegan food. I'm not a veterinarian at all but some people in my family are so it's great that this place opened up, it gives us an awesome place to meet up and meet everyone's dietary needs. The food is so good, you will not believe it's vegan. Not just good for vegan, good for food in general. The chicken run burger is very good, as are their sweet potato fries. If you have room, you need to try some of their cupcakes and cookies. I don't know how they get those cupcakes so close to the real thing without using eggs or butter, but they do and they're super good eats. A little pricey - a burger and a soda will cost you around $12.50 after all is said and done. They have some good homemade lemonade varieties that are worth a try.
(5)Emily T.
You're going to be seeing a lot of me, Native Foods. A casual spot that serves 100% vegan food from the sauces to the starters to the entrees? My life just got a bit easier. Before I gave up meat, I was always wary of tempeh or seitan or anything billed as "vegan," but I promise you that Native Foods serves delicious, plant-based foods for everyone. If you don't believe me, order their Native Chicken Wings! The menu is comprised of a variety of bowls, sandwiches, burgers, salads and the like. I'm a big fan of the Super Italian Meatball Sub, which not only had marinara sauce, but pesto, too. Obviously, you can't pass up ordering their lavender lemonade or their watermelon fresca to quench your thirst. For an environmentally conscious company, I was a little surprised to see that their bathroom didn't have an air dryer for your hands and only supplied paper towels (albeit recycled). Just an observation... I very much look forward to returning soon for a quick, casual meal.
(5)Solongo B.
I'm not a vegetarian, but I really loved this place. The food was very clean and delicious! But because it's vegetarian I probably won't go there often. Also, a little bit on the pricy side.
(4)Olivia S.
Native foods is my go to. Having one open across the street from my office was a dream come true. The food is absolutely amazing and vegan.. The first time I had their chicken wings I went on the website and was looking at the ingredients.. I seriously thought I had been confused and it was actually chicken.. yeah.. that good. It's healthy, fast, delicious and affordable. My boss has made comments that it is expensive for not being meat.. well yeah organic vegetarian food is more expensive that a big mac or whatever for McDonalds.. My favorites: Chicken Wings, Twister Wrap, FRIES, Watermelon Fresca, Scorpion Burger.. okay everything.. Yeah I eat here a lot..
(5)Victoria W.
Not a vegan myself, but if I could eat here everyday I may just become one. They don't have any soda pop. They do offer homemade organic iced teas. Great staff here as well. Very friendly and helpful
(5)mary S.
I was a frequent customer at this location until last month. I tried doing the every Monday but found that after 3 visits the quality of the food had changed. I ordered my favorite wrap and found all lettuce and maybe 3 small pieces of protein. They have seriously cut down on the amount of protein they put into their wraps..... I did bring it to their attention and they did give me a $10.00 gift card but when I went back the next week it was back to the same....
(2)Merl H.
Great American food. Generous portions. Drink choices are fantastic and unique. Delicious. I HAVE to have a chocolate cupcake for dessert. I don't know how they make the frosting taste so good. We make it a point to eat here while in the Denver area.
(5)Wesley J.
I'm not a vegetarian but this place made me realize I could happily become one. Quite a pleasant surprise on our trip through town. Love the homemade drinks. And free refills?! Awesome food, generous portions and very friendly staff. Wish they had one in Austin!
(5)Stacy W.
Love this place. I could seriously eat here every day, as they have so many options on their menu. I especially love the Chick'n Run Ranch Burger with the Watermelon Fresca and Sweet Potato Fries.
(5)Alison C.
I have always been interested in vegan food since my sister-in-law and brother have become vegan. We were greeted with friendly faces and asked if we had dined with them before, my friend and I were both first timers. I had the Chicken, bacon Avo sandwich and my friend ordered the Ensalada Azteca. I was sort of bracing myself for an odd tasting sandwich, but it was not bad at all. For chicken that isn't chicken and bacon that isn't bacon, It was a tasty sandwich. I then decided to try my friends salad and it tasted delicious. The dressing complimented the salad very well and it's a very light, refreshing salad. Now, I have to mention their drinks. They are absolutely amazing. Sometimes teas and fruit drinks end up being watered down or too sweet, but I could not stop drinking their blueberry lemonade. Their drinks are made from scratch daily and you can tell! On my next visit I think I will stick to a salad or try one of their earth bowls? either way, I was a very impressed customer and will be back.
(4)Erin P.
Some of the best vegan food I've ever had. I definitely recommend the chicken, bacon, avo club! So delicious. The people there are always so friendly and I love going there after a long day at work. Getting take out doesn't take too long, 10 minutes tops. There's no wifi which kinda sucks but you can get a drink or water while you wait. It's also no too terribly priced, so I definitely recommend coming here!
(5)Heather W.
This was so good! I ran in to grab a quick lunch to bring back to work. I got the native "chicken" wrap with avocado and it was so so good! It was huge too...I got a free free tea for getting a rewards card as well. Good service and quick...kinda pricey for a plant based lunch but I'll be back.
(4)Kati G.
Mmmm. I wish this was in Indianapolis where I live! The faux-chicken ranch sandwich was very tasty. The desert was pretty good and the drink options were tasty. I went with lavender lemonade. I would love to come back and try most of the menu. I'll be on the lookout for this chain while traveling.
(4)Samantha L.
Great atmosphere and options even for the non-vegetarian. Specifically, marking what would be a good choice for the newbie to the restaurant is a great idea and writing out what all the various meat replacements was also brilliant. The staff was very friendly and my faux chicken wrap was delicious. The options for drinks were creative and the menu was nothing if not fresh and inventive. Certainly not healthy, but way healthier than normal fast food!
(4)Wendy E.
My honest opinion, it was a horrible experience, I ordered this for my family for thanksgiving, truly dissapointed ! i ordered the Wellington and took it home and cooked as directed. . the wellington and cheesecake was not worth it.The cheesecake was in a pie tin, in fact no one could eat it. i have been to the restaurant and everything is wonderful, but this experience ruined my thanksgiving this year. I want my money back
(1)Connie S.
This evening was my second trip into this amazing place! I absolutely love and highly recommend the chick'n Wings!!!! They are so good. I prefer the Buffalo sauce vs the ranch but both are offered. The nachos are as big as your head and so well put together I would definitely say they are made to be shared. Tonight I tried the Ancho Bar-B-Q sandwich. The flavors were very authentic for smoked barbecue. The coleslaw that topped it was just enough. I can't wait to go back and try other options. Stop in soon you won't be disappointed! The staff is very helpful and so friendly too!
(5)Leah P.
Best vegan food in Colorado!!!
(5)Shannon H.
The "ice-cream" sandwiches are TOO GOOD. I went to Native Foods in Chicago a good amount, and loved their lavender lemonade, as well. Now, going to Native Foods in Denver, it somehow tastes EVEN better. I hope to be able to try everything on the menu, although I heard from some people that I should watch it and not confuse "vegan" with low-calorie/healthy. Cheers to Native Foods!
(5)Nicki V.
I would give them 5 stars if it weren't so pricey, but totally worth it. The "Native Foods Chicken" is AMAZING. I got the twisted wrap and give it 5 stars. Avocado cilantro dressing was to die for. Will be back. Thank God for a good Vegan restaurant.
(4)Aaron B.
This was my first visit to this plant based aka vegan restaurant. I'm not a vegan... and yet it was very good. It isn't meat, and it annoys me that they try to pass non meat off as meat... embrace your vegan-ness. Service was great, I will definitely come here again
(4)April S.
For not being vegan, my 10 year old son and I loved the food! The chicken nuggets passed the kid test and I was happy to see sides of cucumber and mango and brown rice served with them. The burger was excellent, great flavors and very filling. I got steamed kale as a side. That's one of my favorite foods and they didn't disappoint! The drinks are very fresh. My son and I both say that you must try the lavender lemonade! The desserts are to die for! The oatmeal cookie sandwich is big enough for 4 people and the chocolate brownie is so rich and chewy that even non-vegans would swoon! The improvements that we would recommend: the wait time at the counter is a bit excessive, which is because the staff want to give each person a very full and informative experience. Not a bad thing unless you're in a hurry. The restaurant itself is pretty noisy and it can be hard to hear the cashier with the silverware clanking and the echoing conversation and such. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves immensely.
(4)Elisha K.
Excited to go back to this location which is new in my neighborhood. I've also been to the one north of here. Finally, chicken nuggets my kids will eat (not that I want them to eat McDonalds chicken nuggets but they say they want them on occasion and I waste my money every time)!! The kids love the chicken nugget meal combo at Native Foods ... I honestly don't think they even know it's not real chicken! Oh well, it's all for my own pleasure so I won't ruin a good thing!! :) I am looking forward to trying more yummy stuff on the menu. Last trip, the chicken sandwich hit the spot as well as the sweet potato fries and iced tea. Kinda wanted extra "ranch" but it was just fine with a tiny bit of ketchup from my fries. I'm a sauce-a-holic, I can admit it. I got everything to go and it was very conveniently packaged. Next up are the nachos ... I'll sit and eat in for those.
(5)Loretta D.
One thing I love about Native Foods is how they give back. When this location first opened, select customers got a free entree, appetizer and dessert days before they officially opened. You also had the option of bringing up to 3 friends and they got the same free items. Totally awesome! Also, there is a rewards card so you can earn free food. How cool is that?! When their menu changes, it's bitter sweet because they bring in new delicious items but also get rid of favorites. My current favorites are *Classic Deli Reuben *Twisted Twister Wrap (crispy ) *Bistro Steak I've been to two of their cooking demos and I found them to be informative. If you're new to the vegan lifestyle or just need recipe ideas then it's worth going. I'm very thankful to have such an awesome vegan restaurant so close by!
(5)Vicky D.
I love this vegan restaurant, my favorite one. The lavender lemonade with some of spearmint leaves is very refreshing and digestive. The teas are very good in a good size of portion. Nice choices of tasty meals. I love it!
(5)Ellen L.
Great nachos!
(4)Mrs K.
Excellent vegan cuisine that would please anyone - veggies and carnivores alike! SO exciting to find a restaurant with such an extensive and delicious menu and everything is vegan, fresh and delicious! I visited this location myself on a Friday and loved it so much that I brought my husband back a couple of days later. Everything that we tried was phenomenal. The first day, I tried the Classic Deli Ruben with a side of native fries and a watermelon fresca to drink. The sliced Native seitan was so amazingly similar to real corned beef, perfectly seasoned and delicious. The fries were seasoned beautifully and were extremely delicious. I was also impressed to learn that they make all of their vegan proteins and cheeses from scratch, and appreciated all of the organic condiments and beverages. The watermelon fresca beverage was delicious - cool and freshing with a touch of mint. When I returned with hubby, I ordered the Chicken Run Ranch Burger - a delicious combo of crispy vegan chicken with ranch, lettuce and tomato on a really yummy wheat bun. It was incredible! The breading on the chik'n was perfect and the chicken was so delicious - you'd be hard-pressed to convince people it's vegan. My husband had the Portobello Sausage Burger - which was like the best sandwich you could imagine - served on one of the tastiest demi-baguettes we've tried. He said it was one of the best sandwiches, vegetarian or not, he's ever had. We also tried the teas and the incredible lavender lemonade which was craveable. Even though it turned out to be way too much food, my husband also ordered an appetizer of some sort of fresh, asian style rolls - though I can't recall what they were called. They tasted like fresh Thai spring rolls, but were wrapped with wheat tortillas instead of rice paper - and even though that sounded odd, they were amazing!! We wanted to try dessert but we were so full that we just couldn't do it. You will not walk out hungry from this place. The meals are all incredibly filling with generous portions and wholesome ingredients. The ambiance is cute and trendy with fun chalk paintings, modern/rustic decor and lots of seating inside and out. The service was also amazing on both visits - and the servers are friendly, knowledgeable and eager to please. We will definitely be back the next time we're in Denver. I would love to see Native Foods come to Colorado Springs - we're craving this sort of delicious vegan/vegetarian cuisine.
(5)Cathy L.
My new favorite restaurant! Can't believe how good the food was, service was also excellent. Make sure you get the loyalty card to get free stuff. I was already planning what to have on the next visit as we walked out the door. Terrific place for Veggies and Omnis alike!
(5)Eve V.
An update on this review is that recently Native Foods has started to "skimp" on their wings and instead of being a long strip have become something more like the size of a chapstick....still tasting great but disappointing that they've cut their portions to less than half of what it was months ago.
(4)Jen T.
Amazing! Food was awesome and the service was EXCELLENT. Our waiter knew everything about everything. Every ingredient, every preparation, every detail, I was thoroughly impressed. As a picky Vegan, I was beyond satisfied. Will for sure go again. Keep up the great work!
(5)Mike C.
Awesome food. You'll love it whether you're vegan or not.
(5)Audrey D.
Great food! Chicken club chicken was breaded but not like too fried and greasy! It's got a great atmosphere and is a good place for lunch with a friend, not too loud
(4)Lakshmi H.
I love, love, love this place, but the new Summer menu is missing my two absolute favorite items - the Classic Deli Reuben and Bistro Steak sandwiches. Nooooo!!! Please, please bring them back! We've tried the Italian Meatball Sub, the Ancho Bar-b-q Brisket, the Portobello and Sausage Burger, and the Philly Cheese Steak special (like the bleu cheese dressing on the Bistro Steak sandwich better! ), and liked them all. We also tried the Chicken Run Ranch Burger and the French Market Muffaletta - both tasty, but on the dry side, sauce wise. The new menu will, no doubt, force us to try more offerings, which is not a bad thing, but I'm hoping other customers will join me in requesting the return of the two sandwiches that can convince the most die-hard meat eaters that eating vegan is a wonderful thing!

Beware of False Advertising Do not sign up for the NATIVE FOODS CAFE REWARDS PROGRAM and expect the offer below to be honored in good faith. It's a gimmick. "Thanks for signing up! Just go to any Native Foods Café in the next 10 days and use your Native Foods Rewards Card (or your name and email address) to receive your Free Dessert." In the future, I do not intend to patronize this establishment; integrity matters. I would highly recommend MAD GREENS located in the same plaza. The food is fresh and the prices are reasonable.
(1)Jennifer R.
Yeah!! A reasonably priced vegetarian restaurant. Staff is friendly and the menu selection is great with daily specials. The drinks with free refills are fresh and delicious. During prime times (lunch) order ahead online. Line and wait can drag out.
(4)Claire L.
Love this place. The Native Nachos were incredibly delicious. Wish they had a location in NC.
(4)Leahh D.
This is by far the BEST vegan restaurant! I love their food and everyone that works there is so kind. Even if you are not vegan, I highly suggest going here!
(5)Lauren W.
Love this place! Love the atmosphere and that I can pick anything off the menu without worrying about allergies. Will definitely be back.
(5)Ursula B.
We have arrived in vegan heaven!! This menu is blow you away awesome! The fresh non GMO ingredients are what drew us in. My little ones 8 & 3 seriously licked their plates clean! A healthy yummy place where we feel comfortable eating anything on the menu because the quality and freshness is not a question!! So happy they are in Colorado! Even if you're not vegan or vegetarian, there is no question that the food is delicious for any palate! The desserts are amazing as well and the drinks are so refreshing with the beautiful flavors of Mother Nature! LOVE this place! Everyone I bring here is always amazed by the beautiful presentation and the bomb of flavor that goes off in their mouths! Taste the freshness of REAL food!
(5)Shari A.
Being a total meat & potatoes type of gal, I was hesitant to try a vegan restaurant. This was my third visit. I have tried different menu items each time. I cannot believe how totally yummy everything has been. I cannot wait to work my way through the entire menu. The customer service is great too. They will customize your order anytime & if you gave any food allergies they have a very easy to read last of ingredients for every menu item. I highly recommend native foods to everyone, even us serious Carnivors!
(5)Nick S.
Awesome place to eat. Local natural foods at a good price. Great service with nice people. If you over this way it's the place to go over everywhere els
(5)Tyler S.
Native Foods is fantastic. I've tried just about everything on the menu, and haven't found a thing I wouldn't order again. Definitely my favorite lunch spot.

I want to love this place. I've been to this location twice now, and the first time I had great service and great food. Today I went by to get lunch to go. The girl at the counter was really nice and wanted to be very helpful-I ordered the Greek Gyro bowl, which is supposed to include seitan sautéed with shallots, steamed veggies, kale, lemon garlic sauce and hummus, served with a whole wheat tortilla wedge. I made the mistake of not checking my to-go box until I got home. The seitan was delicious and well-seasoned. However, no shallots, no lemon garlic sauce, no hummus, and no tortilla wedge made it into my box. Basically I ended up paying $10 for some seitan, steamed veggies and quinoa. I added some of my own dressing and ate what I had anyway, but COME ON!!?!?! 10 bucks. There was NO line when I was there, and only a handful of people in the place, at 3:30 on a Wednesday. There is nothing worse than getting home with the wrong takeout.

I've tried this place probably 10-15 times desperately wanting something that wouldn't be disappointing. When this location first opened it was great, the staff were all kinda panicky because they were new. You could tell no one knew what they were doing. The buffalo wings are great, even though it went from getting 5 big ones to 5 tiny ones for the same price. Though now I think they have two sizes available for order. The salads are meh, not worth it. The desserts are amazing just overpriced and all the burgers are good. Though the food was delicious, it was the portion sizes that kept me coming back. $7 for a ginormous plate of nachos? I'm in! Over the months the place has gone downhill. I did a mini-boycott for a while because the past 3 or so times I went it was despicable and was completely disappointed. I waited about a month before going back to see if anything was better, and to use my $5 coupon they emailed me. Not only did they make their portion sizes so much less, they even changed their plates and bowls to be smaller as if no one would notice. That giant stack of nachos went to about half as much and were completely bland. So I started skipping out on the nachos and re-trying the sandwiches, all pretty good but incredibly overpriced for what it actually was. I think the last time I was there it was like $18 for a burger with fries and drink. Definitely not worth it even so because you're gonna be hungry again an hour later because their portion sizes are ridiculous. Even the fries have been skimped. Change your ways native! I was a loyal customer in there 2-3 times a week until y'all started getting stingy.

At first I was a little hesitant to try what my friends call, "hippie food" but this place was delicious. I actually ordered online about 3 hours ahead of pick up, and the process was smooth as silk. Images of the food would be nice, but having been here once before, I knew the basics. Ordered the Thai Meatballs and they were great! Maybe a little crunchy, but complimented the quinoa and the slaw nicely. I gave this place 5 stars due to customer service. I arrived 10 minutes before my order was ready and thought it'd be great to chug down some of that lavender lemonade while I waited. The total came out to be $3.01 and I only had $3. Luckily, the cashier said, "wait! I have a lucky penny!" And reached in her pocket to pull it out. I said that I couldn't take her lucky penny, but she insisted. Hopefully some luck comes both our ways! Definitely check this place out! I've been delighted with their meatless flair.
