    Sandwiches
    Maya R.

    Super duper yummy sandwiches, the pastrami was sooo good! The strawberry and mango tango smoothies were very refreshing. The service was amazing super nice and considerate people, and the store had a great vibe and decorations, they even have a little area for kids to play.

    What a gem! Ask yourself the last time you found a restaurant that actually had reasonable prices and great customer service. Before eating at Nature's Goodness, I'd have a hard time answering that one. This little family-run café tucked in a quiet shopping center in Carmichael has as many plant-based options as they do omnivore and it all comes with the absolute friendliest service. I come in regularly for the sandwiches that are loaded with fresh produce and Butcher's Son deli meats. Vegan mayo, vegan cheese... no problem, you build your sandwich or wrap the way you want it. No vegan tax here! They carry Dole Whip and, on occasion, Oatly plant-based soft serve. It's almost dangerous how good those two things taste together. Recently they started featuring flavored iced teas from Tractor Beverage Co. that are super refreshing. Don't skip on one of those either. I was also surprised to see they offer a small selection of vegan donuts from Family Donuts in nearby Fair Oaks as well (major plus) and also expanded to carry vegan ice cream. I can't rave about Nature's Goodness enough. They are a huge addition to the local plant-based scene and worth driving across town for!

    Omg! I am so glad my friend to me about Nature's Goodness. As much as I am in the Reyes Azteca shopping center I've driven past is gem many times. I walk in and am immediately greeted. The lady who runs the business and I forget her name so please forgive me is so kind and helpful and answered all of my dietary needs especially allergens. I love that they serve vegan food and they also serve food for the meat eater don't worry they've got you covered. :) They serve salads, sandwiches, fresh juices, Vegan donuts, Dole whip and so much more... you will not be disappointed in the selection that is offered. I ordered the veggie sandwich which on vegan ciabatta bread as well as a soft serve half & half Dole whip and Oatly soft serve. The sandwich is delicious the veggies super fresh and the bread fresh and soft as well. The Dole Whip with the Oatly soft serve is so refreshing they come in 2 sizes small and large and is so worth it. The prices are fantastic and the portions sizes great. If you're ever in the Carmichael area I highly recommend you come and give Nature's Goodness and you are supporting local business. :)

    We stopped by for a quick lunch. We were immediately greeted by a nice lady at the counter. We asked about the vegan options and she was very helpful. She helped my daughters create a sandwich that they both enjoyed. The vegan "meats" were excellent. I enjoyed the "pastrami" sandwich. We liked the "mango tango" smoothie. Overall nice experience

    Rainbow bagel sandwich. Yummy.

    This place is wonderful! Every food item, drink, and dessert we ordered this morning was absolutely delicious & the 2 people working (I think they might be the owners) we're both super sweet & allowed us to modify our order to have exactly what we wanted. The meal was sooo delicious. Very flavorful! My sister & I each ordered a rainbow bagel sandwich + strawberry mango smoothie. My sis also ordered a latte + a vegan donut. We devoured it all & will be back soon for more! :-)

    I finally got my strawberry #dolewhip fix at @naturesgoodnesscafe! I haven't had a strawberry one since last year at the state fair. SO GOOD! The @thebutchersson_official tofurkey sandwich was also delicious! They also have regular pineapple dole whip and vanilla and switch out flavors. And the owners are so friendly and nice! instagram: jax.vegan.eats

    The menu on the wall doesn't reflect the vegan sandwich options but if you get the little square piece of paper to fill in your sandwich order-- surprise! They have vegan options.. along with donuts and dole whip-- all vegan. Located in a plaza where Marconi turns into Palm and intersects with Fair Oaks. The staff were helpful and super nice (offering dole whip samples) and excited about their vegan offerings.. When you walk in, it seems like a small place but there's more space around the corner. It's a Carmichael gem.

    Pastrami sandwich.

    I ordered a a vegan sandwich, they have non vegan items also! It was so delicious! The pastrami was tasty and the bread was light and fluffy. I will eat here again. The portions are huge!

    Friendly staff making sandwiches to order. The use vegan turkey or pastrami from the butchers son. We had ours toasted and it was yummy.

    Attention: new vegan friendly cafe! I'm so glad I found this little local spot. They have lots of vegan options and watermelon dole whip!? The menu is a mix or sandwiches, breakfast items, cofeee, smoothies donuts - all with vegan options. Very friendly owner and excited to offer all these amazing options. I tried the build your own sandwich with the Butchers son vegan pastrami and it was so good! They toast the sando lightly and have lots of toppings. Did I mention good prices?! Can't wait to head back to try more!

    Vegan salami sandwich.

    This place is absolutely amazing!! The sandwiches were fresh and delicious!! The owners are friendly and helpful!! I highly recommend Nature's Goodness!!

    Dole whip with oat milk
    Alison S.

    I have never had a vegan sandwich as good as the one I had here. I have been craving a pastrami sandwich for years but don't eat meat anymore and this vegan pastrami with Butcher's Son meat was exquisite. There are currently not a lot of places I know serving Butcher's Son vegan meats and this one just rocked my world! I can't wait to try the others. The vegan Dole whip was heavenly and dreamy and creamy with the oat milk in there. A total treat and my friend said she's bringing her daughter back here immediately to get one too. I was surprised at how delicious it was! The owners are so kind and lovely and I love the toy shop theme they've carried in from their toy store next door. I love places with a little whimsy. I almost want to keep this place a secret so it doesn't get too busy from their incredible vegan sandwiches alone! But I also can't stop talking about how it's my new favorite local sammich place!

    Comfy, earthy cafe with plenty of food and drink options!…read more Visited on a Sunday afternoon after taking an exam nearby. Service was friendly and helpful. My order was finished quick. I picked up my drink across where I ordered and then I picked up my food from a separate place when the device they gave me buzzed. What I ordered: * Chia seed pudding $7 - coconut chia seed pudding with coconut flakes, strawberry jam, and granola. Generously stuffed into a round container. Delicious. Inspires me to make chia seed pudding at home. * Hot earl grey creme tea $4 - I added honey. Perfect balance of citrus and black tea flavors. Came in a big paper cup, but had the option of having it in a tea pot and pouring it myself. Note they have a card surcharge of 2.9%. I was able to find a comfy seat with a round table. There were a lot of people but still enough seating and not too loud inside. The music was relaxing. Loved all the natural light and cozy, earthy vibes. For fellow matcha lovers, I saw a sign they use Mizuba matcha. It was already late afternoon and I had a matcha latte earlier so I chose not to get a matcha latte. If I'm around the area and come back soon though, I'd love to try their seasonal summer offering of the coconut matcha cloud. They also had a pastry case next to the register. The savory items sounded great too, so there's lots of items I'm interested in trying from here. Would recommend if you're looking for a nice, spacious cafe to relax or do some work!

I was able to get a happy hour discount on my drink, and I chose a Zen Garden which is a jasmine milk tea with matcha layered on top, and I added lychee jelly and sea salt foam as well.

I came here on a Saturday evening at around 6 PM. The 'barista' was quiet, reserved, not someone who should be working in a café. Not welcoming. Not personable. I have a phin filter at home and often make my own vietnamese iced coffees. This place offers Vietnamese Iced Coffees and describes it as "Phin filtered coffee with condensed milk" but this is absolutely leaving out crucial details regarding the preparation of this beverage... like, if it is premade and left in the fridge for hours or made from powder, it doesn't go into these details and it should. I went inside, ordered, and went into the bathroom. Although there are many amenities in the bathroom, there is no door handle lol, I have never seen this. It is GHETTO. It's just a door with a handle lock. The hole where the door handle should be, is covered by some type of colored cardboard LOL. I have been to some ratchet, rundown restaurants and cafes but they ALWAYS have a bathroom with a door handle LOL. Ok - back to the coffee... I was quick in the bathroom and the coffee was done in less than 2 minutes. The coffee was either premade and left in a carafe to become stale (because WOW it tasted SO stale) or it was not truly made in a phin filter. I'll never return to this cafe, like, yoy can't even do Vietnamese iced coffee right?? Gross. Stale. Ghetto. No thanks.

If you cannot resolve a problem, or if it is an ongoing issue, you should escalate it to someone with the expertise and authority to address consumer concerns. Do not wait for customers to approach you after the situation has already deteriorated, especially when a flippant response has shifted the tone of the interaction. Another option would have been to table the conversation for a later time or on a different day until more information was available. What began as a discussion about a product concern quickly became focused on a employee instead of the issue itself. The manager appeared to become frustrated, stated to understand the main concern, yet responded with an unnecessarily intense tone and level of defensiveness. There was considerable deflection, repetition, and what felt like half-truths rather than a sincere effort to work toward a mutual solution. The manager should remember that they represent the Root of Happiness brand. We have been patronizing Root of Happiness for at least 10 years, long before the owners expanded to the Roseville, Midtown, and Rocklin locations. Additionally, over the last few weeks, the Justin's Peanut Butter Cups have seemed unusually dry. It may be the result of a bad batch from the vendor or the effects of extreme weather conditions impacting the product's quality.
