    All menu items available as vegan/vegetarian. I had the avacado/oink burger and a 'Twinkie' cake. Cake was delicious. Burger was good, messy. Ranch, ketchup, soda all tasted organic/weird/paste-y.

    Love the wide variety of food items on the menu, plus, I think they have the coolest folks working here. The pastry/dessert chef just gave me a complimentary dessert today.

    Every pizza can be made vegan! Try the Taco Pie, with spiced faux meat, vegan nacho cheese, black bean purée, pico de gallo, guacamole, and romaine, or the Smashed Potato Pie (taters on pizza!).

    Delicious and friendly. Head chef saw me drooling over a new pizza after ordering and went to the trouble of bringing over a sample slice just out of kindness! That gets you longtime loyalty - classy.

    They make a decent brick-oven pizza, all of which can be made vegan, and their non-alcoholic "vibrational, multi-dimensional elixirs" are quite tasty too, if you can get over the names. Read more

    Prepare yourself for Source's Mac & Cheese, it is going to be the best you have ever had. Freshly served in a plate bubbling with cheese and a side of sliced bread. It will make your mouth water! Read more

    French fries - fresh and well fried and you could taste the ketchup was fresh, thumbs up! Artichoke Fondue - had an odd smokey flavor and the oil was separating from the dish, bread was thick & dry.

    Buffalo bites - spice was right bit a bit spongey and chewy... Like tough gluten. Green curry faux scallop dish with quinoa - not like a Thai green curry, not saucy, your basic stir fry with curry

    I love meat, and still think Source is delicious. Order the bruschetta for sure! Also like the "moo" skewers.

    Try the Live Platter! I wish you did not have to order at the counter but the food is great and you can sit while you're perusing the (fairly large) menu.

    Loved the avocado burger with pink bits. One of the best sandwiches ever eaten incl ones with meat and can be made vegan!

    Source's Jamaican Jerk Cluck is a delicious dish that comes with a blend of diverse, worldly spices! It also comes with soup with your Munch On Me deal! Read more

    Try their vegan gluten-free truffle mac & cheese. You can also get pizza half vegetarian half vegan to share with a dairy eater

    Their Berkeley location is on Shattuck, between Vine and Cedar, near Chez Panisse. Go to either locations if you're looking to carb load

    I am not a vegetarian but if it were easier to find foods like this at other places, I would eat a lot less meat. I especially like the dodadillas.

    Never get the vegan mac & cheese while sitting next to someone with the real mac & cheese.

    Most filling vegan food ever. Crazy portions! The avocado cluck club is a marvelous sandwich.

    They should cut down some of the portion sizes and the overwhelmingly large menu, use less sugar, and retire the kiddie mock meat names. I still like this place though.

    Dosas, Pizzas and Entrees are the best. I had the Dosa-Rito..it was awesome!

    Get the chocolate and peanut butter snowball for dessert and wash it down with a refreshing lemon-infused Yerba mate.

    Mac and cheese - lots of goopy cheese and little pasta. Taste was decent but nervous as to how it could clog up my arteries. PB cookie - dry. S'mores cake - a bit dry. Twinkie, tastes like a mock

    So the servers were awesome, the concept is amazing but the food left much to be desired!

    Popeye dosadilla - inside was good, tofu was a bit smokey and dosa was burnt. Lacking the crispiness real dosas have. Mushroom pizza - soggy and some bites had that weird smoky flavor again.

    Putting fake meat on a skewer is a bold move but they pull it off. Get the moo skewers.
