Evergreen is amazing. The staff is friendly and helpful, the food insanely delish. I pretty much always get the mock moo goo as it's garlicky and wonderful with plenty of fresh, crisp veggies. We also can't leave without devouring a plate or two of the vegan egg rolls (only fried thing I eat!)and their mango soy shakes cannot be beaten.
<3 Evergreen.
Perfect place to take the non-veg family/friends when you want to be able to eat abundantly while preventing the suffering that comes from taking whiny omni loved ones to a meat-free place. Heh.
Poor ingredient quality, too many fillers.
Petguard Organic Vegetarian (which has organic eggs, sadly) or Natural Balance vegetarian (vegan) are much better quality foods. If Evolution could get rid of all the fillers and make their food corn/soy/wheat free then I might give it a shot. As it stands, I wouldn't ever feed it.
My rats get the Petguard Organic Veg dog kibble (since rats are sensitive to GMOs) and my cat gets a grain-free food from Natural Balance suitable for obligate carnivores. She was adopted pre-veganism and will be my last carnivorous companion once she passes. I'm sticking with scrappy omnivores like rats who thrive on vegan/veg diets from now on.
I love Fasika! We're regular visitors and the staff is super friendly and all the ladies who've been there a while could place our order without us saying a word (we're predictable). We get a friendly 'hi guys' when we hit the door and great service.
I am in BIG LOVE with the split peas, personally. I actually don't even LIKE peas but I adore how Fasika cooks them. Yum. Our usual is the split peas and an order of the stew, which is served with a scoop of delish mustard greens, too. I've had other Ethiopian that was good but my heart belongs to Fasika!
The tempeh cutlet owns my soul.
I literally have a salivation reaction just mentioning it.
Add in the spicy and creamy coconut red beans with delicately spiced rice, amazing braised greens and a truly outstanding bruschetta and it's heaven on a plate.
Turtle cake is delightful, too.
I tend to take my slice home since cake NEEDS soy ice cream or soy milk to really be complete, IMO.
Just an excellent restaurant!
I love their sesame spinach appetizer (not to be missed!) and bop between the mushroom soba soup and the kitsune soba. Both are amazing, simple but so delicious. I always walk out feeling completely nourished and satisfied. Lovely atmosphere, too.

Love this site.
They are simply awesome people with great products. :)
When they had their old location they even let us arrange a special time on Sunday to come shop before we drove back home to St. Paul, MN. Excellent business. :)
