Dinner was a revelation. The food was excellent, with vibrant flavors I admit I didn't expect with vegan cuisine. We had the lasagna, Chef's Special Plate, and the Organic Sampler, split between three of us, and finished off sharing a serving of the cheesecake. I was in heaven. This wasn't a night when there was a musical performance, so the restaurant was fairly quiet and we enjoyed conversation with our waiter.

This cozy vegan restaurant was such a brilliant find! Especially as its roots go for decades in the SF area. We came in right when they opened and everything we ordered was so fresh and delicious! Their customer service went above and beyond as they answered every question we had with such knowledge and grace. I loooved that they had both cooked and raw vegan dishes. The empanada was cooked to perfection and the filling was infused with so much flavor. A must get! My favorite had to be the Reuben (BLT) and Corn Taco Combo! It was a raw dish that transcended every expectation. The pumpernickel bread and sauerkraut combination left me craving more and the corn taco was sooo goood! They have live music as well which we didn't get to enjoy but we'll definitely be back!

Great food and ambiance. There was an amazing live band with sensational music, and I was lucky enough to get a front row seat. Service was quick and the really the best part about the experience, surprisingly, was the food. I would recommend the corn tacos, but pretty much everything I tried was 4/5 or 5/5.

Really loved the food and the dancing. Everything is vegan, which is amazing!! Cute little restaurant

Wow. Just WOW. My friends and I walked in to a wonderful speech by a husband to his wife. The feels were there. An intimate little restaurant with live music and dance. The food is all vegan and there are plenty of GF options. And everything is just phenomenal. Highly recommend the platter so you can try a variety. The lasagna was just a must! The horchata was also really good. Creamy and not too sweet. The brownie with ice cream is delicious! It is heavy on the coconut, but it will convert you. The founders is the restaurant were playing life music. The environment was so comfortable and inviting we got up to dance in between courses.

Vegan dinner with a show?! What more can you ask for. Such a great place for birthday or date night. I'm. It a vegan but their food is great.

Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 10/5 (absolutely spectacular ambiance!!) VIBE: - live music on fridays and saturdays 8-10pm!!!! the owners predominantly play Latin music - it's so small and intimate and has become my favorite restaurant in SF - patrons are encouraged to DANCE - I'm just a huge fan and this place should be on your SF bucket list - GREAT for a date night - make a reservation if you can :) FOOD: - all plant based vegetarian/vegan - the best vegan food I've had in a long time - white chocolate vanilla cheesecake (5/5) - COMBO organic plant based veggie grill and spicy Bolivian pasta (5/5) - vegan sáltena plate (5/5)

Good, unique food with a fun atmosphere! Everything is cooked with the best oils and ingredients. Even the venue itself has extensive history! We got the plantains w black beans, chefs special plate, and the burger. I was a bit underwhelmed with the plantains and black beans, but the portobello mushroom on the chefs plate was amazing! I don't know how they do it but it was so tasty. While the food was good, ultimately, it was just too expensive for what you get so I had to give 4 stars.

Owned by the couple that lives upstairs, this gem should be kept close to the chest and enjoyed with close friends only. Celebrating the Bolivian cuisine on its' menu, Pena adapts their dishes to cater to a plant based diet as well. Ambiance With live music and white table cloths, come early for amazing food, and stay for the private show and dancing. The versatility and intimacy makes the space alluring. I went with a large group and they were fully ready to smash tables together to serve our group. Service Attentive and quick paced. The staff are willing to accommodate the patrons' needs with no fuss. Food The Lentil Dip was so so so tasty! Super filling for a small dish I split with my partner. The Chicha Morada was a little to cinnamon forward and didn't have enough citrus for me. A little bummed the $7.50 16oz glass didn't satisfy. Will definitely return for those nights of North Beach debauchery. Highly recommend!
