I have eaten at Blossom and Root Kitchen 15+ times at this point for brunch and dinner so my review is long overdue. I am vegetarian and have eaten at many vegetarian restaurants over the years. I would confidently say that Blossom and Root is the best vegetarian restaurant in the Bay Area and it may be my favorite restaurant hands down. Food: Key to a great restaurant is consistency. The food and dishes are consistently great at Blossom and Root over many visits. I have tried the Smash burger, yellow curry, Mediterranean bowl, french toast, pancakes, chilaquiles, breakfast burrito and several other dishes. Yellow curry is my hands down favorite but honestly no dish has ever disappointed. Every dish is always very freshly prepared. You can tell. They have a kids menu as well. Kids will also love the "experience" of the Butterfly bubbles drink! Just try it! Ambiance: Cute restaurant with a modern craftsmen kitchen feel. It feels like you are eating at the home of a friend with a nice house. Casual vibe that is kid friendly. Service: Servers and staff are always very friendly and helpful. Sometimes it can get slow for attention when they get busy. read more

First timer. Long wait to get an order in and not too many people in the restaurant. I would not recommend ordering the Chilled Beet and Avocado "Bowl." It was about 1/4 cup quinoa and millet and more tangerine oranges than grains. Look at the difference of portion sizes from our experience vs Yelp photos. I felt this was inadequate and asked for more grains. I got a 1/2 cup of extra quinoa (only). Tofu scramble and pancakes (adult and kid versions) were good. The server tried to insinuate that the adult pancakes weren't enough, but they were more than enough. We also ordered one orange juice for a child (paper cup with a copper straw jammed through the opening) and hot tea. Honest review, it was overpriced and moderately good. I would not return; quality and value for 3 adults and 1 child was not worth $100+ including tip. Hope they consider my feedback to improve; this place has great potential. read more

Chilled Beet & Avocado Bowl is perfectly balanced and filling. Get it! Pistachio Bread is so satisfying. Not overly sweet and lots of cozy spice. Wonderful service too. Even during peak rushes, you're kindly tended too. read more

Thoughtfully crafted vegan food. They have full range of options in drinks, coffees, breakfast items and entres. Nice cozy setting with indoor and outdoor seating. The place is well kept. The staff were very extremely friendly and helped us choose. Food was a bit on the milder side but it was well put together overall. Slightly pricey if you order all accompaniments for a given main course item. read more

It's really hard to find vegan options or dairy free options at a restaurant these days. Almost every place is mostly fried food despite cuisine. This place was a breath of fresh air. It is beautiful inside and has a gorgeous patio with views of the cute downtown area. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly and didn't rush us out. I ordered the pasta alfredo which was very creamy and my friend had the "steak" salad which she loved. There is a large food menu and drink menu including mocktails and crafted drinks. This is a great place for all occasions and did I mention they also have dessert?! read more

What a cute place! We decided to bring our vegan daughter for her birthday and we all really enjoyed it! It was Sunday at noon and they were very busy, so the service was spotty and a bit on the slow side, however, the manager or owner (not sure what title the woman had) came over and acknowledged how slow it was which we appreciated. It did take at least a half hour before we got our coffees and they got it wrong on one of them so I would suggest going on a less busy time. However, we all enjoyed our food very much! My husband had the Chilaquiles and I had the Huevos Rancheros and both were so yummy! Our daughter and her husband had the tofu scramble and French toast which they enjoyed a lot. I'm not sure how much I would enjoy the French toast though as it appeared with no syrup but rather the toast was partially soaked in some sort of syrup type thing and no extra syrup was given. He enjoyed it though but I didn't ask for a blow by blow description of it, so my opinion is purely based on how it looked. For dessert, they brought out the most delicious huge chocolate chip cookie with a candle for our daughter's birthday and we all shared it. It was sooooo good! Two of us had chai espresso martinis that were very tasty! We did order sangria but had to return it which I try to never do unless I really dislike something. Neither of us liked the sangria. It was extremely bitter and not balanced at all. We will definitely be coming back though! My husband is not vegan and usually doesn't like these types of restaurants but he loved the chilaquiles so much he wants to come back and that says a lot!ho read more

We stopped by Blossom and Root on our recent visit to Northern California and it's the kind of restaurant that I could go to at least 3 times a week and still enjoy it. The fully vegan menu is very well crafted with highly nutritious and delicious options including greens and all sorts of proteins (beans, chickpeas, tofu) without fake meats and cheeses. Portions are perfect for sharing (tapas style) so you get to enjoy more than just one item. The service was super friendly and the restaurant is clean and beautifully and cozy decorated. Because it was winter we didn't enjoy the terrace but that is likely a great treat in the summer. read more

We love a good vegan cafe!!! My partner and I had some downtime during the day, decided to try Blossom and Root while in downtown Danville for a casual weekday brunch. Vibrantly decorated inside and out. Feels very inviting yet eclectic and fun. Upon entering, we were welcomed warmly and felt right at home. POWER PARFAIT: Dressed-up overnight oats/chia pudding ^_^ Extra refreshing topped with fruit & lemon zest. TBH this is a meal all in itself, super hearty. BREAKFAST BURRITO: H E F T Y. So delicious and incredibly filling. I couldn't believe the egg was actually plant-based...! Tasted fresh & flavorful. Paired with a couple coffees (amazing house-made syrups!!!), this was the perfect brunch. Already itching to come back :3 read more

I'm not a vegan, and to be honest, I usually approach vegan restaurants with a bit of skepticism. Too often they rely on heavily processed "fake meats," which I personally find pretty unappealing. But Blossom & Root in Danville completely changed my expectations. What I love most about this restaurant is their creativity and commitment to real, fresh ingredients. Instead of trying to imitate meat, they focus on making vegetables, grains, and plant-based ingredients taste incredible on their own. The result is food that feels thoughtful, satisfying, and genuinely delicious. Every salad and entrée I've tried there has been outstanding. The flavors are vibrant, the presentations are beautiful, and you can tell a lot of care goes into each dish. Nothing feels like a compromise--it's simply great food that happens to be vegan. This morning I took my granddaughter there for breakfast, and it was another wonderful experience. I ordered the French toast, and it was fantastic. If someone had served it to me without telling me it was vegan, I would have never guessed it wasn't dipped in egg. It had the perfect texture--crispy on the outside, soft on the inside--and was full of flavor. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and it's the kind of place where both vegans and non-vegans can enjoy a great meal together. Blossom Route proves that plant-based food doesn't need imitation meats to be satisfying--it just needs creativity, quality ingredients, and good cooking. I'll definitely keep coming back, and judging by how much my granddaughter enjoyed breakfast, I think I've found a new regular dining companion as well. This is a great restaurant to goo to during lent! read more

Street parking Indoor and Outdoor seating The decor is cute-- like cottage chic? I don't know how to describe it. Is it all vegan? Could've fooled me. Some components were really impressive dupes of the non-vegan kind, i.e. the blue cheese. The person that sat me also served me and she kept it super casual, taking a seat at the table while taking my order. Other diners were all extremely jolly helping make the atmosphere of sitting in this restaurant kind of whimsical. It was my first visit and I would return and recommend it to others. If you like crab cakes, give theirs a try. It's made of mushrooms and I couldn't tell. I was impressed. read more

These people have great vegetarian food. The coffee was very flavorful. The maple brussel sprouts were fabulous. The the garbanzo soup was terrific. Service is great. It is an indoor outdoor casual dining experience, with a very friendly atmosphere. The secret menu sweet potato soup was very flavorful. I had the mushroom steak salad with blue cheese and it was fantastic. As was the burger, which was a pleasant surprise, especially with the fried onion garnish. read more

This was my first time at a vegan restaurant and it was fantastic. It was quite busy when my mom and I walked in with a reservation, but the service was so sincere, warm, and accommodating. We ordered the breakfast burrito, mushroom steak salad, fries, and I was so impressed. The mushroom steak salad was tossed well, and the guacamole paired with the breakfast burrito was AMAZING. I really enjoyed it! There were so many other items on the menu that I'd love to try next time! After, we ordered the chocolate mousse and that was the star of the show! It was absolutely fabulous, my mom and I LOVED IT. I also need to highlight the service because they truly created such an inviting space. Henry served us and he was great! Lu (Larissa) came by our table multiple times and she truly was just so incredibly intentional and KIND. She went out of her way to come to our table to apologize for the wait before we were seated since it was pretty busy, and she just overall had such a nice and truly warm demeanor! Would 10000% go back! read more

Great place for brunch! We arrived Saturday morning without reservation but were seated within a few minutes. Excellent vegan/vegetarian options. The entire staff interaction was pleasant and present without being overwhelming. I devoured their Tofu Scramble with some Sourdough f-f-f-f-French Toast and a nice Gewürztraminer L'Orange. (The Silence of the Lambs). My wife enjoyed the Crab Cakes, Maple Brussels Sprouts, and a Father's Beer Lager. The brownie was delicious and an excellent cap to an outstanding experience. Fun was watching the kitchen staff crafting the meals, the manager creating interesting beverages, and the open-air environ. read more

If you're searching for a vegetarian brunch spot that's easy, inviting, and consistently fresh, this place is a fantastic addition to your Danville rotation. It's a charming vegetarian brunch spot right in the heart of Danville, just the kind of place you want on a weekend morning. The interior is cozy and thoughtfully designed (super photogenic without trying too hard), parking is straightforward, and the staff is genuinely friendly and attentive. I visited on a Saturday, and it was the perfect follow-up after the nearby Farmers' Markets, making it even more convenient, with the weekend vibe matching perfectly. Food and drinks stood out: everything tasted clean, fresh, and made-to-order, not prepared hours in advance. You can tell they care about ingredients and execution. The menu is also well-curated for a diverse group, with plenty of options that appeal to adults, plus kid-friendly choices that don't feel like an afterthought. read more

First time having a cocktail here. The strawberry margarita was excellent. The salt rim was delightful and the strawberry garnish was the sweetest strawberry I've ever had! My friend had the raspberry margarita. She enjoyed it very much as well. For dinner, we each had the Kale & White Bean Soup. Delicious and comforting. We also shared: Tofu Lettuce Cups - Wow! Amazing how they made tofu and rice sing harmoniously together! The sauce was the perfect match. Mushroom Steak Salad - The mushroom was hearty. Loved the bleu "cheese" dressing. The combination of textures was lovely. The service was excellent. I don't know how Steven did it all. He was our server and bartender. He was friendly, professional in a casual and welcoming manner. read more

It was my second time dining at Blossom & Root and everything was delicious! We made reservations for a Friday night at 5pm and it was empty as I arrived. Soon more people started trickling in and it became quite busy. I adore the cute space. It felt very homey and comfortable. For food we started with the mushroom lettuce wraps. It was topped with crispy rice with Bibb lettuce, fresh basil, mint, cilantro, a side of pickles with lime. Medley of mushrooms were cooked perfectly. I really enjoyed this appetizer. For the main dishes we opted for the specials of the night - drunken noodles and Toscana pasta. The drunken noodles were quite spicy which my friend enjoyed. I also loved the creamy tomato pasta that I had. For dessert we got then cheesecake mouse and it was light and dreamy! The table next to us saw the food we got and ordered the same things we did! lol I can't wait to go back to Blossom and Root! They have a happy hour that I'd like to try next time. read more

After being seated, we waited 20 minutes for someone to take our order. It seemed like many other tables were also waiting for service, so we ended up leaving. It's a shame the service is so slow because the food appeared to be good. read more

The waiter is giving us the distinct impression that our presence was inconveniencing her. The automatic 20% service charge for breakfast that was not clearly mentioned beforehand. I believe the service charge for 6+ was added, but we only have 5 in our group. The supervisor refuses to acknowledge that the current menu is inaccurate, and consequently, no action has been taken. Tips : Call ahead to confirm their rules on automatic tips and check-splitting to avoid being surprised or inconvenienced when it's time to pay. Even though the food is good, the experience is not worth it. read more

Date: Saturday, January 4th, 2025 Time: 12:30pm Party of: 2 Meal: Lunch Reservation Made: via OpenTable *Chilaquiles ($21) *Maitake Steak Salad ($19) *Smash Burger ($18) *Sauces ($2) *Domaine Brut Glass ($12) *Ginger Lime Soda ($8) I am not one to ever suggest a vegan restaurant. Especially with the hubby since he's a meat and carb eater. However, I am a veggie lover and don't mind eating lighter meals from time to time. Enter one of my girlfriends. We used to see each other more often and talk about healthier food options. Since we hadn't gotten together is quite some time, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to explore a new spot. We actually had no idea B&R was completely vegan until we talked to the server. I was very shocked by the blue cheese since it actually had a nice texture. The mushroom salad was my favorite item. A very generous portion as well. I'm normally not into apple in salads, but for some reason, it worked here. Lots of flavors that mixed well. The smash burger was fine as was the chilaquiles. I'd say both were pretty standard. I asked for hot sauce since I like a little spice. Had no idea it would cost $2 extra but hey, it's two bucks. Service was odd. He was very attentive at the beginning, but then maybe he got busy and forgot about us? Not that we were in a hurry, but it did take some time to flag him down when we were finished with our meal. A solid place if you're looking for some vegan fare. REVIEW #3677 read more

An excellent vegetarian restaurant. I had the curry and my husband had a salad. So delicious. We will be back.

Very pleasantly surprised upon our first (but definitely not last) visit. The food and drinks were absolutely flavorful and delicious. Our party had the Tofu Bowl, Mushroom Steak Salad, Caesar Salad, Grilled Sourdough with herb butter/ kumquat jam, a broccoli cheese soup, strawberry champagne cocktail, cider and blackberry mint limeade. The salads had a delicious grill char flavor, and all of the entrees were hearty and satisfying. My son felt his tofu bowl was a bit too spicy for him, and didn't love his blackberry limeade, but he still tried to eat up all the rest. Overall, we appreciated the tasty dishes, and our service was very courteous with recommendations and a smile. To those concerned about price, it's a sign of the times, not just for this restaurant IMO. But you get what you pay for, and we need more of this kind of food.. done right. The restaurant is easy to find, in the old Danville Hotel, along the restaurant row. It's got a charming style. We came for a drop in for lunch and had to wait 15 min, but we're happy we did. read more

The food was very delicious and they had a creative menu. I liked that it was frequently updated with new options. The whole menu is vegan as far as I can tell. They seem to reserve the right not to serve vegan food, I'm not sure what isn't vegan though. Hopefully everything is vegan but be careful. The service was good, they comped us drinks and an appetizer for making us wait outside. The interior was cozy and cute. Staff was very caring. Hope it's fully vegan if not I would probably dock a star it's an expensive but great place. read more

I was vegan for years, and although I am not any longer, I still gravitate towards the plant-based restaurants. Blossom and Root was a cozy place to eat at.

DO NOT BUY THEIR MATCHA ITS SO BAD Genuinely one of the worst matcha's I have ever had $8 for a 12 ounce. Its watery and light in color no matcha taste they couldn't just added green powder and it would've tasted the same. Also zero sweetness. I would describe the taste like if you took a gulp of plain unsweetened oat milk and fell asleep with it in your mouth. My brother got a mocha and he described it as the taste of your mouth in the morning before brushing your teeth. I hate to hate on vegan places because they have it hard enough but it was so bad that I had to say it Workers are nice though except for the one that lied to me saying their matcha's are good!! It feels like she tried to prank me read more
