We ordered the Super Tacos, Raw cheeseburger, and a few raw desserts. The food was as fresh as can be, service was fast and very amiable, and the plating was beautiful. The meal left us feeling full and nourished. We look forward to coming back!

BEST RAW VEGAN DESSERTS!!!! They really care about high quality ingredients and putting love into the food. ABUNDANCE of Fresh, Vegan, Organic, Raw, and Gluten Free options. Super nice staff and Nicest owner. Highly recommend the Raw Falafel Sandwich, Pizza and Dehydrated Corn Chips!! ALL Desserts are Out of this World Amazing! Coming back every time I pass by!!!

Not sure why people are complaining, hope you open up a place of your own and see how well it'll stand... seems as people assume just because a place operates it should hold certain standards... clearly none of the people who are leaving reviews ever had their own place they operated.I just ordered a few things and can only say that it's super delicious.Most likely the food is being compared to what they had at a omnivore restaurant filled with oils and a ton of msg (fake flavoring).I was able to tell right away they use organic ingredients and not the cheap veggies most are used to.They do cost more money which is why prices are higher than what they're used to. It's called inflation?Had to put this in there after reading some cracked out 1 star reviews...

I have given three chances (pastries, empanadas, soup, cheesecake, pizza raw and baked pizza were small sizes hors d'oeuvres and overpriced like no other restaurant, not even in Tokyo they charge that at the best restaurant/cafe) to this place located in Plantation in January 2022. I am not a perfectionist and it is unfortunate to deliver this Zero Star review but hopefully by the time someone else tries they can improve the overall quality from the customer service, food preparation and freshness, time delivery, price adjustment for specific portion size and represent the philosophy and mission statement that they advertise to have.Hemos brindado tres visitas/oportunidades a este sitio ubicado en Plantation FL (pasteles, pizza raw pizza al horno, empanadas, sopas, porciones hors d'oeuvres y a costo elevado ni si quiera en el mejor restaurant/cafe en Tokyo tienen este precio). No somos perfeccionistas y es desafortunado dejar este zero estrella feedback pero esperamos que puedan mejorar la experiencia (pobre calidad y rendimiento desde la calidad de la comida al servicio al cliente y ambiente) para los próximos clientes. In Great Health and Best Service for the near future to come!_Response to Owner’s Comment:***CHARITY IS A VIRTUE AND I LIVE BY BEING A HUMAN KIND AND TRUTH MIGHT TEMPORARILY HURT YET MORE BENEFICIAL THAN FALSE REALITIES AND ADVERTISING.THE EMPLOYEES ARE JUST THE PRODUCT OF THE TEAM/OWNERS/MANAGERS PRODUCTION AND MANIFESTATION OF THOSE WHO CREATE THE STRATEGIES AND DIRECTIVES TO FOLLOW. EMPLOYEES SHOULD BE COMPENSATED FAIRLY AND TRAINED ACCORDINGLY BECAUSE THEY ARE THE ONES MAKING THE EFFORT OF INVESTING THEIR ENERGY INTO WHAT WE ARE GOING TO ULTIMATELY CONSUME SO RAW FOOD FOR THOUGHT.COMPARISONS ARE NOT PRODUCTIVE ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU COMPARE PROCESSED FOODS WITH DELICIOUS RAW APPLES. AFTER ALL THERE IS ONLY ONE CHRISTY CAFE.HAVE I BEEN PATIENT? THREE VISITS AFTER UNANSWERED CALLS, ORDERED MANY ITEMS AND TIPPED THE EMPLOYEES BECAUSE THEY HAD ZERO TIPS AND NO CUSTOMERS.DO I HAVE UNDERSTANDING? I HAVE INNER-STANDING, ANDDO I HAVE EMPATHY? SHINNING THROUGH, I AM SORRY FOR THE SUFFERING.SOME PEOPLE JUST LIKE ME DO NOT TRADE THEIR VALUES FOR MATERIAL GAIN SUCH AS FOOD, MONEY SO ALWAYS GOOD TO VALUE QUALITY OVER QUANTITY***BLESSINGS!

The customer service was great and I really loved the lentil soup. I’m not a big fan of raw or gluten-free food so I couldn’t give it a full 5, but the person I was with loved their meal. I love that they offer a wide selection of both raw and fully cooked food. This is perfect for parties that want both. Another plus is that they are in Plantation. Hoping more vegan restaurants make their way to West Broward.

I knew this place when it was Green Wave. So, I was curious and excited to try it when it changed hands. The cheese cake is cool. The snack chips are over priced to the point that it is insulting. The food is no where near what it was when it was Green Wave. It is too sweet potato and cashew heavy. Maybe this location is just neglected for the new ones they are opening. The ladies who run it are sweet. But, over all, it doesn't seem like there is a whole lot of love going into this place. It is really sad.

Overall, I was happy with everything and will return. It was a little bittersweet because I so loved the funky little Green Wave Cafe they replaced. My friends and I ordered an assortment and shared. The "Cheeseburger" was great. Their guacamole was A+. The empandas were a little too doughy but that could be a personal preference. The chocolate keto cake was great. Vegan and keto? An A++ in my book. The menu was too sweet potato heavy. It would have been nice to see other options for sides. It was FANTASTIC that it the menu options were soy free. Too man vegan cages load up the menu with food that is equally unhealthy as a good ol' fashion cheeseburger. But not Chef Christys. I'd love it if their website changed daily to show the soup of the day and any specials. The website needs a little TLC. I'd love to see them bring back the raw lasagna from the Green Wave menu and add a vegan keto creamy spinach dish. But, as it is today, it is worth the visit. The staff was friendly and efficient. Any time food is made on demand and from scratch, I expect a little bit of a wait. Homemade quality food is worth it.

My boyfriend and I were visiting from Georgia. The atmosphere was great. There was a wide selection of savory dishes to choose from. The food is great, clean healthy eating. The ladies were wonderful.

RAW Vegan food. Food was 3 stars. Staff and service were 5 star. Definitely worth trying out

David Sheppard

We ordered the Fabulous Berger. It was fabulous. The service was very good. We each ordered a different side dish so we could share both. We ordered the lintel soup and the mixed salad. Both were very good.The salad was very fresh and had multiple ingredients such as mixed greens, sprouted lintels, and tomatoes.If we ever returned to this area, we would definitely choose the cafe again.

Upset I didn't find this place sooner! I had the "cheeseburger" and the house salad. The flavors were fantastic! Honestly hands down the BEST raw, vegan, and gluten free food I've ever tasted. I will definitely be back to try everything on the menu! The portions were good too. I felt very satisfied after my meal unlike some other places I've tried.

The best raw vegan restaurant I've ever been to totally fall in love with it , all the main course all comes with a salad , the salad even have lentil sprouts , usually I have to sprout my own lentils it's so nice that I can buy all the raw dishes here and fresh made
