Higher Taste, Plant-Based

I travel a lot for work, and I try to go to a vegan restaurant in each city I visit. I’d put this in the top vegan restaurants I’ve been to in the USA (along with Vertical Diner in SLC and L’Artisane Bakery in Miami). The reason this place is a memorable standout is largely because of the variety and quality of the items in the menu. Their açai bowls are absolutely the best! And their salads are amazing too. Taco Bell only had a vegan Crunchwrap supreme for like a month in limited markets so Higher Taste selling this is much appreciated. Can’t recommend Higher Taste enough!

All tasted great and yummy on point. We had the 'chicken' strips, spring rolls, animal fries, lentil soup, raw cinnamon roll, and the chocolate chip cookie. Pretty good job for the vegan restaurant. Loved it here, thank you!

This is my Berry Good. I think it’s the worst one compared to the other reviews and the photos on the menu. Other bowls are almost filled to the top and have a generous amount of fruit on the acaí base with beautiful pattern. I came here for an event and was looking forward to having a meal, but this is what I received. After reading more reviews in detail, I noticed some people mentioning racism, and I’m sad to say I agree. If you’re not white, you might think twice before coming here. (Aside from that, the food is good.)

I absolutely adore this place, and I have only tried the layered acai bowls and a couple of other items. The staff is friendly and awesome. They have gone out of their way to answer my questions. All three of the layered acai bowls "have their own personality" and are legit fire. My favorite is the Cacao dream, but both the Tropical Sunrise and Purple Dragon are right up there as well. You can also design your own bowl, which I may try out next. The spiced lentil soup is delicious as well as the chick'n strips! The vibe is chill and very personable. For me, it is kind of like a loving, energetic oasis in the middle of a downtown chaotic environment. I am looking forward to diving further into the menu. I was recommended a few of the burger and chicken sandwiches that sound delicious. There are also salads, wraps, bowls, and nachos? OMG, someone please give me another stomach.

Very hard to find a good plant-based restaurant with flavorful and fresh food. But this place is it!!!! The high quality ingredients and delicious food really captivated our taste buds. My wife and I are plant-based and were exploring the Long Beach area hoping to find a good vegan place to eat. This place was a treasure find! Will definitely be returning here when we’re back in Long Beach.

I had the potato tacos and they were pretty good. the shells were fried, which I wasn't expecting, but made them taste good. the shells had a nice flavor and the sauce to dip them in was good. I didn't like the vibes of the restaurant so I took them home to eat them. I noticed the couple in front of me was ordering on a tablet, but there was no clear sign that all orders were electronic. I figured that out and just ordered quickly on my phone and finished before the people in front of me. The place is too big and feels unfinished, in my opinion. Service was meh.

Soul food! It was so delicious and fresh! Definitely try this place out! I’ll Be back when I am in the area ! Nice sitting no lines. We had to wait quite long this time for our food but it was worth the wait . Everything is made from scratch so it’s probably the reason they took so long.
