Had an all-around delightful dinner of Chili Lime Tofu Quesadillas that were quite tasty, spicy and perfectly prepared. Was treated warmly and enjoyed the unique loft dining and art exhibit. I decided to support this local restaurant after hearing about their charitable works in feeding the hungry during the pandemic. Glad I did. Had plenty to eat on my thin budget. Will return because of seeing the many items on the menu that appealed to my mostly vegan palate.

Their traditional taco meat is better than mine, damnit Brad. Their secret ingredient is Cauliflower... The California taco, is the best vegan taco I've ever had. Excited to stop by again and try the vegan tamales.

This is a delicious and affordable vegan experience! I got the taco quesadilla, Cali taco supreme, and white chili and Spanish rice bowl. I also got a strawberry banana smoothie. Each dish is a unique flavor that is mild to moderately spicy.The customer service was great for a game day. Food arrived hot and ready in a timely manner.

Sarah catered our pre-wedding meet and greet party, it was fantastic!! She was very helpful with delivery and setup. Sarah is great to work with! Everyone had fun with the build your own taco bar and loved the delicious food! I recommend Archibowls for catering or just grabbing a bite!

We ordered from here for the 2nd time in as many weeks today. I waited to write this review in case the first time was a fluke. It was not. The food is delicious! Be prepared to wait because it’s clear that they put a lot of attention into each dish and most things are cooked to order. The staff are friendly as well! We’ll definitely be making this one of our go-to places for nights we don’t want to cook.

I'm from wichita & was in town for a family event where there was no vegan food. Archibowls basically saved my life! The chili lime tofu quesadilla was the best quesadilla I've ever had, vegan or not! I will definitely be coming back to Lawrence just to try more of the menu. Very reasonably priced as well. I can't wait to try more!
Bethanie Halsey
So delicious. I love this place! 100% vegan, nachos and bowls are great. Agree with affordability. Family of six ate here for just about $60.

This is the closest vegan restaurant to Topeka afaik, so I'm glad it's good. The experience for what it costs is very much worthwhile- I can't say that about every vegan restaurant I've been to unfortunately. The food is good, and the service better. I usually struggle to finish my dessert (because I'm full), if I get any. The brownies are great, but personally I recommend asking for it to not be reheated. I come here regularly with my boyfriend who isn't vegan (or at least he wasn't when we started coming), who also loves it. The salsa in particular is very good (costs extra for what it's worth), and everything else I've had so far is great

Second time ordering for delivery and wow! The absolute care they put into their food and packaging. I absolutely recommend their cheesecake as well. This isn’t just good vegan food. It’s good food period.

I've lived in Lawrence for four years now I'm in disbelief that I've never at Archibowls before! While it isn't on Lawrence's famous Massachusetts street for all to see, it's right off of Mass on 10th street which is still a great location. I stumbled upon this place while on a walk enjoying the nice weather. They promote tamale pies, before I went here I had never heard of a tamale pies! They lady who attended me was happy to explain what they are(you'll have to go there yourself to learn what they are) and which to get based on my taste, super duper helpful! The lady was so kind she even gave me a free cup of fresh made cinnamon-chada that pared ah so pleasantly with the slice of the tamale pie. Safe to say I will make premeditate trips here!
Fresh, clean tasting and flavorful. Dinner cooked just right. You won’t miss the meat. Chocolate banana avocado shake tasted clean and hit the spot. California tacos were spicy- homemade cilantro jalapeño sauce… If you can handle the heat- order these! Support local small businesses/cruelty free and really know how to season food well. Worth the drive.

This is my first visit. I've been vegan since George W. Bush's first term and I've been to dozens of vegan restaurants from holes in the wall to fine dining. I just moved to Lawrence a few days ago and realized I lived two blocks from a vegan restaurant. I walked to it today in single digit temperatures and was not disappointed.Food: I had the Medley Bowl. It greeted my pallet with delicate spinach greens that made my heart rise in my chest, jalapenos cooked just enough to be soft yet crunchy, caramelized cashews and onions laid on top of a bed of Spanish rice then topped with a sweet chili sauce.People: The woman working the counter greeted me promptly with a masked smile, she was calm, friendly, knowledgeable, efficient and helpful.Space: There are two levels which I didn't notice at first. Upstairs seems really cozy and there was what appeared to be traveling art on the wall. If you look in from the street and it doesn't look like there is seating, look up, dine in.Value: The portion was a perfect meal size for me, and I'm not a small man. It was quite affordable. Great value.Con: I'm not crazy about plastic to-go containers and bags. Had I known about that and taken the time to look upstairs I would have definitely eaten in. I will reuse this one as much as I can before it goes into the waste stream. It is possible that quality compostable takeout containers are simply not available in the local market and if that's the case please disregard. If you can, please consider switching to something less environmentally permanent.

Great food and unlike many other vegan restaurants this one is very affordable. It's great that Lawrence has an entirely vegan and vegetarian restaurant as there aren't many of those around this area. They had a ton of options on the menu. $6-10 per entree and it was a ton of food. I'm coming back soon to try the vegan cheesecake. Also they have $2 bud lights!!

Loved the food here. It was great having and entire vegan menu. The prices were reasonable and the food had a nice homemade taste. The owner was so friendly as well. We felt right at home and will definitely be back again.
