This is my first visit to Higher Taste through my daughter's guidance. It was a rainy Thursday around lunch hour.
The place was empty and there was only one lady behind the counter smiling at us.
She gave us a warm greeting and showed us the menu on the counter, then patiently wait for us browsing before ordering. I ordered the jalapeno burger and a side of sweet potato fries.
I considered the portion for the fries quite generous.
They were slightly more salty to my taste but still great.
The burger patty has a slight smokey taste.
I have been a vegetarian for decades and I am not going to compare it with a real burger.
I am willing to say I will take this any day over a Beyond burger patty. My lunch mate had a Thai Temple Bowl.
I took a bit of the Thai peanut dressing for tasting and I say it has a good balance between the sweetness and nutty taste. Prices are quite reasonable given the recent bout of inflation and higher prices. Parking is paid street parking so it is a good opportunity to dispose of some of your quarters, and add to your daily step counts. As for recycling, I do not see separate bins, but they are using paper plates and bowls. I was studying and living in Long Beach decades ago.
It is a delight to find this place as a tourist now.
I definitely would recommend this place to my friends - vegetarians or not.

Bright and sunny.
I used their community table for my working lunch.
Quiet, friendly, and seriously, stunningly delicious food.
I had the Hemp kale bowl with black beans.
Amazingly smooth blend, with 2 servings of a fantastic sause.
Macrame artist was crafting while I was there.
Im returning!

What an exceptional place! Wonderfully delicious vegan food that left this recovering carnivore happy and full. I had the Chick'n sandwich and it did not disappoint.
