Urban Fresh

We are visiting Tucson and our final meal was from this place. It was a perfect ending before we headed out the road, going home. It was also the healthiest meal in Tucson. I have never heard of this place until a person in Vegan Tucson fb group suggested it. It has apparently opened for 10 yrs! Tucson keeps surprising me with its vegan restaurants and vegan options! Everything they serve is organic, housemade, and all vegan. The owner is really nice. He and his wife make everything from bread, biscuits, chickpea egg, seitan, gravy, plant based milk, etc. and they use organic fruits and vegetables. Hubby got the biscuits and gravy. I had the breakfast sandwich with homemade bollilo, chickpea egg, homemade sausage seitan and vegetables. They were delicious and clean meals after all the food we’ve been eating all week. Their smoothies with housemade plant milk were also delicious. I talked to him about seitan making and cooking. It is great to be able to talk to a person who cooks things from scratch and not processed. He let us sample his seitan turkey and housemade soup. A definite eating place to go back to for next time when we are back to Tucson which we will as I Tucson( and Kitt Peak….and Kartchner Caverns)

Wow!! It’s not often I get blown away by a dining experience but this place deserves 10 stars. Their food is delicious and amazing how they are able to do it all vegan without losing flavor. Their prices are very good, and was surprised that no tax or tip were added, it was the price you see is the price you pay. The chef behind the counter personally comes around and asks how it is and takes an interest. This place really hits all the marks, their vegan breakfast burrito is excellent!

I haven't had yelp for maybe a decade and i re-downloaded the app just to leave a review on this place. Unfortunately, i did not take any photos of my food because i inhaled all of it. My boyfriend, an omnivore and meat lover, was also blown away by our meal: the taste, the freshness and the portion. We got the ginger snap shake, the pad Thai wrap, soup of the day (corn chowder) and kale chips. The owner insisted we not purchase the soup until we tried it... spoiler alert, we purchased the soup. The corn chowder was dense and fresh with a nice kick at the end. My pad Thai wrap was enough to feed my rugby player partner and myself. It was so flavorful, their peanut sauce (maybe)? was to die for. I wish we were staying in Tucson longer so we could have another meal here. The space inside is relatively small, but comfortable. And they have outdoor seating.
