This place is unbelieveable, like a vegan oasis amidst a sea of nasty omni fast food joints. Its price compares to a slightly nicer fast food joint, like maybe Wendy's, and the food is worth every penny. Atmosphere is like someone bought a McDonald's and magically made it vegan (and immaculately cleaned it up). It's usually bustling but there is almost no wait at all.
The entrees, $3-7, fill you up quite well and they also provide a little welcome greasiness (hey you're at a fast food place!). The sides, like BBQ nuggets, tofu nuggets, etc. are all very well done and supposedly quite 'meat'-like. The dessert milkshakes are VERY good too.
Only complaint I've heard is that the 'cheese' sauce that they put in cheeseburgers and such is runny. I personally liked the taste but it might be something you'd have to get used to.
Also worth mentioning is that the place is filled with vegan propaganda, like magazines, flyers, etc. Which I think is great.
