Last weekend I had the opportunity to go to San Francisco. I hadn’t been there in years, so I was very excited. Before I left I looked up various vegan/vegetarian restaurants in the area and read that Herbivore, an all vegan restaurant, was highly recommended. So my boyfriend and I trudged up and down the beautiful, hilly San Fran until we came upon 531 Divisadero Street.

Herbivore has a stylish, modern atmosphere.

For an appetizer, we had bruschetta. It was fabulous.

and a salad before the meal (trust me, you won’t starve if you eat here)

…and our main courses. Gnocci with creamy marinara sauce and pasta with lemon cream sauce and portabella mushrooms.

The gnocci was amazing.

Now I had never had a lemon cream sauce before, and I wasn’t a huge fan, but it was still good.

Wait- there’s more… dessert. We went all-out. Carrot cake and a blueberry donut. Both were absolutely delicious.
It’s been years since the last time I had a donut. Amazing.

All in all, a fabulous experience. Our waitress was very sweet as well. If you’re ever in the area, I strongly encourage you to try Herbivore. They have 2 locations in San Fran and one in Berkley http://herbivorerestaurant.com/
