What can I saw about this place? Awesome. Simply awesome. Every dish is like a work of art. They pair flavours flawlessly with textures from seitan, wheat gluten and tofu. The burgers are crazy, stacked high and juicy with different choices for the 'patty'. Definitely not yout typical meat and cheese on a stale bin variety.

I am glad to say I dont think they have jumped on the "trendy vegan bandwagon", so prices there are pretty good (for Toronto).

Vegetarian Haven also has cute mock meat dishes and appys (like gluten drumsticks and seitan steak dinner), but if this isnt your thing this restaurant will amaze you by what they can do with a seasonal veggie dish.

Desert is perfect too, although I am usually too full to order it.
I reccomend the cookie soymilkshake.

I think its also owned by Daoist Buddhists who seem to love what they do, and this adds to the awesomeness of this place.

dude... works of art??? every dish looks like it's thrown together from my 87 year old grandfather's cupboard. it's nice to have another vegan restaurant in toronto that caters to the ultimate lifestyle, but this place blows hard. i've been a vegan for less than a year; a true and total formerly carnivorous convert... and my own basement apartment kitchen could sink this place like it were the titanic. thoroughly disappointed by everything here, except MAYBE their desserts... which, 9 times out of 10, are purchased from elsewhere and garnished with tofutti ice cream. lame.

try hibiscus, just up the street in kensington... about 17 trillion times better and they actually put love, care, and passion into the preparation of their dishes.

Decor is beautiful, kind of zen.

Food is tasty, healthy, and allergy/cleanse friendly.

Servers all seem nice.

I think this place works well for either large or intimately small groups. The overall volume of the place isn't too loud, like at Fresh on Bloor (although I really enjoy eating there).

The food here is good, purple rice is better than white (and brown?).

I can't comment on the desserts, I'm not big on ordering desserts.

Hibiscus is pretty good. Kind of small though.

I've suggested to my workplace, that our staff social be held here this year.
