Although much easier today than it was 20 years ago, being vegan is difficult in an area where most restau- rants cater to meat and po- tato lovers. Luckily, there are a few spots vegans can flock to where they can trust that their food is handled in a way that caters to their needs. In Orange County, there are many options for quick and clean bites, healthy des- serts and a casual atmosphere to hang out.

Everything is made fresh and in house, and the atmosphere is reminiscent of a dining room with soft lighting, wooden tables and eccentric art adorning the walls.
