    Firecracker Roll (GFO) & Sampler Platter
    Kamal K.

    Fully vegan restaurant so close to home! so many different cuisines to choose from from breakfast to mexican to sushi!! and all tastes super good. we got 2 rolls and the sampler platter for our first time there and we finished everything on our plate in less than 20 minutes :) would definitely be back!

    Love Seed Ranger and the wide variety of food options. From sushi to burgers, you can get anything so perfect for everyone! Also loved how they had vegan versions of snickers, twix, and a lot of other popular candies on their counter. My husband got the southwestern burger which was delicious. I was really craving soup so I got the chicken ramen even though I had a feeling it wouldn't be great...unfortunately I was right, but it satisfied the craving. The ramen was basically slightly overcooked instant ramen with an interesting choice of veggies (bell pepper, onion, and carrots), mock chicken, and an egg which was good - I'm pretty sure it's a Wunderegg. Noticed there weren't any photos of the chicken ramen on Yelp so had also taken the chance by ordering it so I could help fellow soup/noodle craving folks see what they're about to order. Coming from LA, where there's so many vegan ramen options, I wouldn't recommend this vegan ramen, but if you're really craving noodle soup like I was, I love how it's an option on the menu! Overall would come again -- vibes are casual, service is fast and friendly, plenty of seating indoor and outdoor, and parking is convenient.

    Cheese Enchiladas with Rice & Beans my favorite and you get a lot of food for the price!

    Yes I have been to Seed Rangers only 10 min from our home! It's great I love all the varieties to choose from and just love its all Vegan! Thank you Seed Rangers! You Rock! Vegan is the Future! We need more Vegan Eatery place in Ventura County! Go vegan for health, animals, the planet! Be the change & Be the difference!

    Golden Philadelphia Roll
    Roxanne M.

    They are seriously so friendly and kind I absolutely adore the employees here! I've had the Oreo shake it was really good. My go to here is the golden Philadelphia roll with no spicy mayo and no avocado and they always remember my order which I think is so sweet. Best vegan sushi ever and I'm obsessed with the fact that Ventura has its own fully vegan diverse restaurant like absolutely amazing

    California Roll (GF)
    Melissa C.

    I was passing through on my way up the coast and found Seed Ranger when searching for gluten free vegetarian food. They have a wide variety of options available. The California Roll I ordered was large and tasted great with nice umami flavor. The woman at the counter where you order was friendly, as was the gentleman who prepared the order. The ambiance is a little odd as this is inside what appears to be a partially empty food court. All in all, I'd stop again when in the area.

    Fish n chips, fish tacos, sushi

    Food was amazing! Staff is very friendly! The vibe in there was great! My gf who isn't vegan said "if I can get food like this all the time I'd go vegan too"

    Beef Tamale
    Diana L.

    First time trying a vegan restaurant. I was surprised by the extensive menu. There was a lot to choose from, I finally settled on the ultimate omelette and the beef tamale. The texture of the "egg" part was a bit tough, kinda like overcooked eggs. The faux meat all tasted similar to me, you could tell it wasn't meat, but taste wise it was actually pretty good. The beef tamale had a red paste like filling and beans. I thought the taste was ok but it was a bit spicy though. For my first vegan experience it was pretty good. Their menu had some interesting options so I may come back soon to try some of those.

    Pozole (GFO) hits the spot as it very flavorful, comes with all the require condiments.  Chicken Teriyaki Chicken Bowl really good.
    Margarito P.

    The food speaks for itself, the few items we tried were delicious. Staff is very friendly and accommodating as it was my 1st time here. The place is big it's like a patio of some sort, there are other restaurants at this location. Food is delicious I was not expecting to like it as much as I did, this is why you got to come try it yourself.

    Breakfast sandwich
    Jim R.

    Hot sauce was not very good, very ketsupy. Otherwise the breakfast burrito was good.. had the sausage one. The place is in a mall food court, don't go for the ambiance.

I've…read morebeen to this plaza many times I've been to all the stores next to it and used to come here when it used to to be another business. To be totally honest, I was a little bit intimidated by how the process works. But I assume caught on that. It was almost like a chipotle kind of style place. I decided to go with a bowl. I was able to choose between three types of different bases, and I went with the basmati rice and the couscous was able to choose a couple of salad options as well. Luckily, we were able to mix and match since I can never make a decision on getting All three types of greens that they have. Then moved over to the hummus section and I was able to get the three most popular hummus flavors, which I actually don't remember what I got. I know one of them was an olive flavored one and another one was a little more spicy. Then over to the protein side of things, you can mix up to two different choices, and some of the other options there is an upgrade fee. Then removed over to the toppings and these are all unlimited and so I was able to get feta cheese, tomatoes, olives, purple cabbage, everything was so endless and amazing At the very end, you're able to choose two different kind of sauces and at the very end, my bowl was actually pretty heavy in weight but most importantly it was very delicious Thank you to the team member here that was very helpful and walked me through the process. I think I might've been too overwhelmed. Otherwise I might've just opted for the burger which I may still have to try next time. The sweet potato fries also look very good and I will have to try those next time for sure. There's a ton of parking spots right outside. I can't get a little bit busy here so she'll be so many different food options but generally, I haven't really had an issue with finding a spot.

    Go NOW and get a slice…read more Now for the review. I'm a new resident of Ventura and my current quest is to find a bass player for my band, Savassa. (It's new so you won't find it.) On my morning walks I chanced upon a coffee shop/wine and beer bar (interesting business model) called Sips as I walked to the gym and engaged the barista, Destiny, in a lively conversation. She recommended that I talk to Travis, who is the owner of Backbench Pizza citing her belief that he was plugged into the metal/Rock scene here in Ventura. Mental note added. Today, after stopping at Sans Souci (aka "the sewer", "the sewer is my church", etc...) to seek to network in my quest to find a 4/5 string bass master, the most pleasant bartender, Moriah, walked me out of the bar and pointed out that Backbench was "right there". I didn't see it at first, even though I was standing almost right in front of it, but Google said I was on top of it. Luckily I was able to locate it by simply walking in the direction of the soft blue moving triangular projection provided by our corporate overlords. I asked for Travis at the counter, assuring the counter service that he was not in trouble. (side bar: the same woman who was working the counter was someone I had briefly met in Sips and I took note, at the time, that she had an actual physical book, as if to read in public, but I digress). Travis appeared and after establishing rapport, filled me in on various resources that might satisfy my musical needs. I must confess that the operation is stark in terms of design but WHO CARES when you have the best pizza on the west coast? I purchased a fresh slice of pepperoni, mostly out of politeness, but quickly expanded my field of perception to note the books on fermentation and making sourdough lying casually on a shelf behind the register. One does well to notice the details. Suddenly, I had the distinct spiritual sense to recognize that what I was about to eat was going to be worth breaking my rigid "macro-nutrient" diet. I will not describe the taste/texture/quality here. It is one of those things that must be experienced. Truly a masterful pizza executed by someone who has a zeal for all things food, especially pizza. My compliments, sir.

I really appreciated how when they didn't have vegan slices readily available, they made an entire fresh pizza to accommodate my request. AND no added charge to make it vegan!

Also, I was super impressed with the back kitchen as they were cranking out dishes, which is what you want when you're having a "quick on the go lunch". I really love how they've decorated this bar/restaurant. It's fun but cozy, definitely they have great creativity with making the space as it's unique and done just right. I love the neon signs, the comfortable lounge chairs/sofas and the rugs. Makes for a great spot to stay a while. Cocktails were solid and they have an impressive selection of Whiskey is here. I'm keeping that in mind the next time I come for cocktails downtown. The food though was a home run and far exceeded my expectation. I started with the onion rings that were perfectly fried and super fresh/crispy. I love that the onion rings were paired with both a ranch and a chipotle sauce. I'm a sauce girl so if you give me multiple sauces, I'm happy. No joke, but I also just had the best Caesar salad I found in the county yet here! Kudos to the bartender Rebecca for suggesting it when I was debating between different dishes... I trusted her judgment when she told me it's one of her favorites and it turned out to be my favorite dishes too! The Caesar salad was perfectly dressed and had a great amount of cheese and croutons. Honestly, this is my dream salad lol. I'd highly recommend you order this when you come here because I can't stop thinking about it... I know it's just a salad and it's a relatively simple salad when you think about it, but it's done so incredibly well here. Overall, I had a really great experience here and will be back soon!
