This is my second time at Ecopolitan. The first time I felt like my food was more expensive than it was worth, but I've definitely changed my opinion after having the raw, vegan pesto pasta. It was the most delicious meal I've ever had and it was creative and unique how they sliced up zucchini to serve as pasta noodles -- totally awesome! A tip: add the thicker balsamic vinegar for extra flavor.
I didn't like the cashew cheese log at first, but it's grown on me with the addition of extra balsamic vinegar. I thought the pizza was good, but it was more of a salad on crackers. The smoothies are delicious and fresh.
Overall, there are a few items that should be reduced in price, but I understand that it's really work-intensive food to make.

I've been to Ecoplitan many times. I think it is AMAZING! The food is incredible. I love that you can actually HEAR them making your meal and juices. It's so fresh and real and organic. I have totally fallen in love with this restaurant and recommend it to everybody who is interested in trying high-quality raw cuisine.
I have also gone to the Tuesday night lectures. I have learned so much and been so enriched by the information presented. I have completely changed so many views on so many health topics!
This place is truly a gem!
