Organic Food: Sage Karma Kitchen
Good vibes abound at this sustainable mecca for people with dietary restrictions. Diners are greeted by scents of Palo Santo and sage incense at this two-year-old scratch kitchen, which showcases a mural of the 12 laws of karma and a “what goes around comes around” tagline.
“People have this misconception that we’re a vegan restaurant. We cater to people who are vegan and gluten free, but we are offering a healthier option for everyone — that’s our main goal,” says owner Teanna Vitantonio, adding that it has dishes with organic chicken and grass-fed beef. “We’re all about good energy, good people, good food, good drinks.”
Our pick: The cauliflower appetizer
Organic cauliflower is quick blanched and hard seared then served with house-made date jam and finished with harissa seasoning. The jam combines fresh dates, local maple syrup and spices. The dish is finished with toasted pistachios.
