Wow. Could not have been happier with the food! Will present the food in the order I would recommend: Banana fritters- soft clouds of fried dough, over some rum dark chocolate sauce. Divine! 7/5 Curry cauliflower over a red non spicy sauce. Refreshing! The flavors blended together with the flavorful but not overpowering flavor, with the well balanced sauce underneath. Could not stop eating it. $17 8/5 Mezze plate - the coconut feta was very creamy and good, I really enjoyed the pomegranate arugula salad with pickled onion and with the pieces of falafel inside. The flatbread was a little hard, but good. The eggplant was good and hummus also good. $32 price a little steep for the platter 6/5 Impossible cheeseburger - classic impossible burger. The standout item was the fries, quite good! Crisp outside and soft inside. 5/5 French toast - ok, a little dry, the berry sauce was good but lacking a little dynamic flavor maybe some citrus? 3/5 Cookie with vegan ice cream. Alas, pastries are still difficult to make well vegan 3/5 Service was a little distracted and hard to order. Bussing was very on top of it. I will return for the top items read more

I was curious about Wildseed, as this is a plant-based restaurant and bar. They serve brunch, lunch, mid-day, dinner, and even a HH option. We came here for brunch, and ordered: +the French Fries - with vegan chipotle aioli, vegan herb aioli, and curried ketchup +the Carbonara Pizza - with ruffled faba milk bechamel, english peas, red onions, fermented garlic, smoked tempeh bacon, lemon agrumato, and fresh cracked black pepper +the Carrot Lox Tartine - with levain, coconut cream cheese, cherry tomatoes, pickled red onions, dill, and capers +and, the Banana Fritters - with chocolate coconut rum sauce and powdered sugar For drinks, I went for the Homemade Soda (pineapple) and the Orange 'fancy juice' (prepared with grapefruit, carrots, orange, turmeric, and ginger). Both were refreshing. Service was friendly, and the inside is bright; I loved their white wooden beams. A great option for those who want a 'meat-free' meal. +plant-based offerings +friendly service read more

I visited Wildseed last night for a friend's graduation celebration. It was such a wonderful experience. Starting with the ambiance, it's so calming here. We were seated by the window, and it was so nice. The entire restaurant is beautiful though. There's truly no bad seating placement. We had some dietary needs--they had a special menu which showed which items were cross contaminated for GF dishes. I really appreciated the care and consideration of the restaurant. Our server was super friendly and welcoming. She offered great advice on food recommendations. Overall, I had a lovely experience at Wildseed. read more

Wildseed is a plant-based restaurant that knows what it's doing. We ordered the Fancy Yellow Juice (5/5), pineapple, orange, turmeric, ginger, and lemon, and it was refreshing and genuinely interesting, not just a wellness shot. The food followed suit. Beet Poke (4.5/5) was a standout, with ginger sesame vinaigrette, taro chips, and seaweed salad making it feel truly intentional. Hummus Basar (4.5/5) was bold and satisfying, and the Lemon Poppyseed Shortcake (4.5/5) closed things out beautifully. Skip the Potato Pizza (3/5), which felt flat compared to everything else on the table. Service was attentive without hovering, and the outdoor setting is gorgeous. Wildseed knows how to feed a crowd without dumbing anything down. We'll be back.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ read more

Ranks in my top 10 All time favorite vegan restaurants in the country. Honestly I find the Palo Alto location more satisfying, can't tell the right reason... maybe it's a combination of experience with staff, location, and the cozy ambiance. I am a fan of the brunch options and what they accomplished with the vegan food there. I had a great experience for a recent dinner on March 13th, especially because of the kind gentleman serving us patiently with a smile. I wish I remembered his name. We loved the food and huge likes for the desserts , so good!! I loved the vegan feta cheese.. especially... great texture! The salad dressing, the falafel, the chocolate cake and GF cookie, were an amazing!! read more

So originally the plan with my girl friend was to dine at Teleféric Barcelona a couple steps away from Wildseed but their waitlist was 2.5 hours in a Thursday night! We walked into Wildseed and were greeted with a hello and "do you have reservations?" to which we felt was going to be a repeat of Teleféric but when we said that we didn't they offered us outside or the high table by the entry. We were delighted we could eat inside since it was a chilly weeknight in January 2026 and didn't mind that it was a vegetarian menu. FOOD We had the cauliflower appetizer and the beets tostadas appetizer, both of which were absolutely delicious! We didn't even think about missing meat products which I expected as a person with an omnivore diet. My friend had the orecchiette pasta and I had the tofu tikki masala. We both throughly enjoyed our dishes and even got full before we could finish! I was shocked given it was meatless. The portions aren't small but neither too big. Just right like Miss Goldilocks, the criminal would say. AMBIANCE The place is bright airy and open with a view of the happenings in the kitchen. Always a delight to be able to see your food being prepared because it shows transparency and maintains a standard of cleanliness. SERVICE Our waitress was incredibly friendly and even confirmed that our two appetizer choices were exactly what she recommends to her guests! We definitely "beet" her to the punchline for those tostadas and cauliflower appetizer choices! The women's restroom was out of order that night and the waitress got another male staff member to check that the bathroom was empty before allowing my female friend to use it. She even stayed by the door and chatted with me while my friend was in the restroom to make sure she didn't get a surprise visit from a male guest. BOTTOM LINE TLDR; great tasting food that actually gets you full and feels healthy with friendly staff! read more

Came in for a cleaner light dinner after the cooking class. The menus are all vegan with a variety of drink options including draft Konbucha on tap and mocktails. The bartender was attentive and kind, and the Hawaiian pizza came in quickly after we ordered it. I liked the thin crispy dough, and the vegan cheese tasted good. Good for our purpose (clean lighter meal) but could be too light for other people. I liked my mango yuzu kombucha that came in a beer glass - felt a little boozy for some reasons but I might be just tired - and hope it doesn't have ABV in it from fermentation cause I'm in my last trimester. Will return for a quick cleaner meal option read more

The interior of this restaurant was so pretty! I like how they decorate with plants and it looked clean. Although the food doesn't look too beautiful, it tasted amazing and so flavorful. It was fresh, piping hot, and filling. Our server was nice in helping us order. We came at lunch time on Sunday so there was a 20 minute wait but they put your number down and will text you once your table is ready so we walked around the plaza to kill time. read more

Showed up at around 6:30pm on Wednesday without a reservation and it was pretty busy. We were able to snag one of the high top tables located near the bar. We decided to order the following to share: 1) Wild Mushroom Zeppole - yum! I love mushrooms so this was a good one. Quite tasty. 2) Fries - arrived hot and crispy and served with a chipotle aioli, herb aioli, and ketchup. Can't go wrong with hot and crispy fries. 3) Winter pizza - enjoyed the thin crust and all of the toppings. It was light and full of flavor. We enjoyed all of the dishes. I'd return to try other menu items. read more

Another phenomenal experience at Wildseed! This place is so special. This time, it was just my girls and I. We tried many dishes, and the only two I didn't fully connect with were the cauliflower dish and the beet tacos. That isn't to say that they weren't excellent--just not my personal favorites. We had tastes of at least 6 other things, and they were all terrific!!!! An easy five stars for innovative and delicious food plus superstar service. Thank you, Wildseed!! read more

The food is incredible--rich, creamy, and you'd never guess it's vegan. Even my meat-loving partner, who's usually skeptical of vegan dishes, said, "This is rewriting the narrative of vegan food for me." They offer a rotating seasonal menu, fantastic cocktails, and consistently delicious dishes. The service is excellent, and the restaurant itself is beautiful, filled with plants and a clean, modern aesthetic. read more

This was my second time at Wildseed Palo Alto, the first time was for lunch on their patio in the summer, which was especially nice, I prefer the lunch menu actually. Service has been consistently good here and the ambience is fabulous and upscale which is perfect for an elevated meal out or special occasions with a big group. This is not the best vegan food I've had, but with few and far between upscale-all-vegan-restaurants nowadays, it's a nice place for a special event. read more

Wildseed - The MASALA BOWL , smaller portion size than I would like. - Vegetarian Near Me - Palo Alto, California

It's definitely helped to have reservations, especially on a Sunday, high noon. We were seated inside. The outdoor patio, shaded by trees, looked comfortable and quiet like you didn't need to raise your voice even with traffic and people walking by, but no tables were available unfortunately. Being my first time here, I had a very pleasant experience and enjoyed my French toast, topped with fresh berries. They provide a carafe of water for convenience. My Americano was strong. The friendly and attentive wait staff - solid. As for the parking, bring patience for coming and going. I arrived around 11:30 am and after a few minutes behind other drivers, I found my spot in the area north of Trader Joe's and as I walked toward Wildseed, could still see open spots at the eastern edge. read more

The many times I've gone to Wildseed they never disappoint. I'm so glad there's a restaurant that's not only vegan but also caters to gluten free individuals. The workers are very mindful about anyone's dietary restrictions explaining that there can be cross contamination in the kitchen which is valid. I also feel this restaurant is great for anyone who is seed oil free, definitely check in with your waiter if you are so they can gear you towards the right food. The restaurant is the same shopping center at the Trader Joe's in Palo Alto, parking lot can get a bit busy but it's ultimately not hard to find a parking. I love that they have a mocktail menu. I recently had their lavender mocktail, it was so cute and very refreshing! Definitely try their Mezze platter, my understanding is that they make their own cashew cheese in house, so good! read more

SERVICE - located in the town and country shopping center in Palo Alto - parking can be hard to find especially during busier hours - plenty of indoor and outdoor seating - indoor decor is plant themed which makes it feel natural and welcoming - staff are friendly and check in frequently on table - food served relatively quickly - ambiance good for a semi casual meal MENU - cafe menu of small plates, sandwiches, pizzas, and salads - all vegan/vegetarian - average price ($17 for entree) FOOD - curried chickpea tartine (8/10): toasted sourdough topped with chickpeas mixed in turmeric mayonnaise with celery, onion, and raisins and served with chips. This is such a great summer lunch. The tartine is light in flavor yet filling with the hearty chickpeas and crunchy bread. I love the tang of the sourdough paired with the richness of the turmeric mayo. With such a refreshing toast I would have preferred a side salad or roasted potatoes rather than chips. WOULD I GO BACK? Yes! The menu is great for any time of day and the ambiance is welcoming. read more

Wildseed is the kind of spot that makes you briefly consider becoming a full-time plant-based foodie. Bright, airy, and a little bit bougie -- it feels like Palo Alto's version of wellness meets "let's get brunch.

Totally worth the visit! read more

Innovativeness in menu surprised me since everything on the menu is vegan. Loved the spread, for the longest time we didnt realize the cheese and omlette were vegan versions.

Went here for 3rd time and this time 8 was pleasantly surprised. Seems like they recently changed their menu and on Saturday's there is brunch menu instead of lunch. Everything was amazing and portion sizes were great even for group sharing! Especially loved the banana fritters and chickpea tartine (the chips with the tartine were to die for!!!) i wish they had some more "nice and safe" choices in their drinks menu, esp for winters there were not many hot drink options. I would have loved a nice hot cocoa or cider drink with brunch! read more

Have always had an amazing time coming here. They make wonderful cocktails and the food is well prepared.

Inside and outside seating is great - outside area is decorated and well lit up. read more

Didn't miss real cheese! I have been here for brunch 2x but last night was my first trying dinner. Flavors and quality of ingredients were on point , those on the fence about vegan food need to try this. When you recreate dishes to be vegan I feel it takes a certain skill along with creativity to ensure textures and taste balance out the lack of cheese for example. I could certainly distinguish it was not dairy cheese but didn't feel the lack of it if that makes sense. Enchiladas and margarita pizza were both delicious, the enchiladas had quite kick fyi for you baby mouths who can't handle the heat from chili peppers. I believe are standing menu. We tried English peas ravioli and corn fritters from the seasonal section. Both were delicious, ravioli had mint and basil pesto sauce that wasn't too overpowering. Texture of pasta was perfect- pillowy with a light chew not overly al dente. The corn fritters were cross between arancini and hush puppies. Lightly sweet and served with garnishes of whole kernels and aioli like sauce. In addition to the above we also ordered fries and smashed cucumbers. Yes it's a lot of dishes for a party of three, yes we love to eat food is life. No we aren't gluttonous pigs did skip dessert. Wish I had room for it, but now I have a reason to go back! read more

Wildseed is a pretty nice, fairly upscale vegan/vegetarian spot. I didn't realize it was vegetarian until I arrived, but still thoroughly enjoyed my meal, regardless. It's probably not a place I will revisit frequently, but I was quite impressed. The staff were very nice and friendly, the restaurant itself is quite nice, and the food was delicious, even if it isn't my normal thing. I was especially surprised by the chilled vegetables and humus. Somehow they made the vegetables delightfully salty. I quite enjoyed it. If you are looking for a solid spot, with vegetarian options, Wildseed is a great choice. read more

Finally! I can understand the Wildseed hype. I left extremely full and content and I can't wait to come back to try their other dishes. Getting together with my friend, I suggested we try Wildseed since we'd both never been. She's vegan and I don't consume dairy or beef. I made reservations for us outdoors since I brought my pup. Making reservations on OpenTable was quick and easy. I was able to change our reservation time multiple times which was convenient! After checking in, we were brought to our table. The outdoor patio is cute and quaint with a fair amount of seating for smaller and larger groups. Just a note, this is a very dog-friendly place! Please be mindful of that, especially if your dog is friendly or reactive. I appreciated our waiter bringing her water. He was an awesome server who was kind, and friendly, and we were never rushed. It was a relaxing atmosphere which I enjoyed. My friend and I started by sharing French Fries. All of the vegan aiolis were so good. The fries were soft and not crispy, though they got soggy after a bit. For my main, I had the English Peas and Ricotta Ravioli. I never get to eat pasta due to dairy and cheese so I was elated to have some. Oh my gosh, this blew me away. The pistou was earthy, light, and herby but not overpowering. All of the vegetables were fresh and well-cooked. Each item was such a nice touch and the pasta wasn't too heavy. The portion was perfect! My friend enjoyed her Spicy Sausage Pizza. They were kind enough to provide a complimentary birthday dessert! We also ordered the Chocolate Chip Cookie! This was a giant, warm, gooey, and slightly salty cookie. It went well with the cold vanilla ice cream. We ate our fair share and both left full! Whether you're vegan or not, Wildseed is worth a try! You'll be so content with the quality and care of each dish that it being vegan might not even dawn on you! I look forward to coming back and visiting their location in the city. This spot is easy to find in the Town and Country Village with ample free parking in the lot! read more

Came here with my Niece and Nephew for dinner. Located in Town & Country Village in Palo Alto, this place is pretty popular on a Sunday night. They have a large outdoor patio for dining, but we opted to sit indoors. First impressions of the atmosphere, there's color and floral prints all over the large dining room. Although the hostess sat us on the side near the bar, which is still nice, but had less visual stimulation. My Niece is such a fan of Wildseed and recommended that we start with the Wild Mushroom Zeppole. Yes, delicious! These came out piping hot, and I got a bit excited biting into them that I burned my mouth on these mushroom fritters. I'll heal. It came with an herb aioli, which didn't have a lot of flavor, but I still liked it for the creamy contrast to this appetizer. https://bit.ly/4kCHdrQ For my entrèe, I had the Peruvian Hodo Soy Tofu Skewer. This meal was larger than I expected, which I appreciate considering the $28 price tag. The large chunks of tofu had really good flavor. It also came with squash. But my favorite part of the skewer was the king trumpet mushrooms. I especially liked the diced pickle bits in the soy tzatziki. The quinoa salad was a helpful protein/carb which made this a filling meal. https://bit.ly/4mTalfS My Nephew had the Spicy Yellow Curry, which tasted good. https://bit.ly/3Znsloy My Niece ordered the Wildseed Burger, which was also yummy. I always appreciate when vegan patties are made with veggie ingredients. https://bit.ly/4kAZbLa I'm a fan and would absolutely come back!

Wildseed - MASALA BOWL - Vegetarian Near Me - Palo Alto, California

We had reservation, which is a must and it was crowded and buzzing. Ambiance was good. We were seated in a small table with 4 people after we ordered dishes , we felt we will be struggling to accommodate food and dining experience will be not that great. So we asked for a bigger table and as it opened up. We were moved to a bigger table. Good service! Space is really cramped so just be aware of that. Restaurant itself was in a shopping complex, though visited for a Friday night dinner we could get easy parking. None of their dishes are spicy and we did not ask for any modifications as we want to taste the dishes as it is normally done. This is a VEGAN restaurant! I am going to review from best to worst dishes in that order. Curried cauliflower, muhammara and toasted almonds, cilantro not too crispy or not soggy either with right flavor and some nuts for crunch. Everyone's favorite. Corn fritters 4pc corn fritters, corn salsa, chipotle aioli, coconut queso, little spice will elevate it further. Mezze plate comes with green falafel, red pepper hummus, athenian eggplant, marinated coconut feta, quinoa salad with pomegranate vinaigrette, seeded flatbread. Everything was great except the bread as it was too rigid to make wraps and put in all the ingredients. If they had given a pita or naan bread, it will take this to top. Vegan Feta cheese was out of the world, best one we tasted so far, we got an extra to pack home. Charcoal lemonade was nice palate cleanser. Spicy sausage pizza jackfruit italian sausage, tomato, garlic, basil, coconut mozzarella, red onion, mushroom, chili flakes, coconut parmesan . Good but not great. Bikini bottom spirulina-infused rum blend, banana, pineapple, lime, salted coconut cream. Not much alcohol and coconut cream was gritty. PAELLA for 2, saffron bomba rice, sofrito, tomato, beyond sausage, cauliflower, asparagus, sugar snap peas, roasted red peppers, garlic aioli, charred lemon. This was one of most visually appealing but it just tasted like tomato rice, no spice, no saffron flavor, bottom of the PAELLA is NOT crispy and the beyond sausage ruined it further they should have just replace it with jackfruit. This was the most expensive and worst of all the dishes, do not order this one. read more

While in the area, we stopped in at this fully plant-based restaurant that I've heard so much about! We got seated right away, & it was definitely a popular spot, seeing as how fast it filled up. We got to sit outside on their adorable patio, but the inside was also very nicely decorated. Lots of fresh, seasonal produce, a full bar with lots of delicious-sounding drinks, & the food was sooo tasty!

If you're in the mood for a fresh, vibrant dining experience, this all-veg spot offers the perfect mix of farm-to-table goodness and laid-back, LA-style aesthetics. The restaurant is a true gem, with clean, minimalist design that complements the fresh ingredients they use. It's the kind of place where you can feel good about what you're eating and the atmosphere surrounding it. The menu offers a variety of creative dishes, but my standout favorites were the new vegan sausage pizza and the cucumber appetizer. The pizza is a game-changer - the vegan sausage is rich in flavor, complementing the perfect, slightly crispy crust. The sauce has just the right balance of tangy, spicy, and savory, and every bite feels like a burst of flavor. As for the cucumber appetizer, it's refreshing, light, and packed with unique flavors that pop in your mouth. It's the ideal starter to kick off a satisfying meal. The vibe here is effortlessly cool, with a focus on sustainability and a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that mirrors the laid-back vibe of LA. If you're looking for a guilt-free, delicious meal in a beautiful setting, this spot is a must-visit. Service was settler. Alejandro is quick efficient and so friendly. Thank you for a great first visit read more

Food was decent/good, but the service was extremely disappointing. We were told there were no available tables except at the high top small bar tables, so we sat there--only to be completely ignored. No one greeted us, offered water, or took our order. At first, I thought it was just an oversight because where we were seated, but my mom noticed plenty of open tables in the dining area and asked why they said there weren't any tables available in the main dining area for us. After this, I decided and checked the restaurant's website and saw many available reservations as well. Not sure why they told us there weren't no tables left???? lol... I approached the receptionist, explained that I could make a reservation if she wanted me to and pointed out that there were several still open online. She eventually seated us outside, but even then, no one came to take our order for quite some time. Meanwhile, other tables--some seated after us--were being promptly served, given water, and attended to. After a few tables after us were getting served, I realized we were being ignored I had to go inside and ask if we had a designated server. Even after we finally ordered, no one followed up, checked in, or refilled our water. It felt like we were being deliberately ignored. This experience left us feeling singled out and unwelcome. I've never been to a restaurant where we were the only ones consistently overlooked while everyone else received attentive service. It was disheartening and disappointing. I don't think racism is a thing here but we were the only Asians there. I don't know what happened but this has been the worst restaurant experience I've ever experienced. read more

I didn't have high hopes for a vegan brunch places because both vegan places and brunch places are very hit or miss, but I thought Wildseed was very good and I left feeling pretty happy. Everything on the menu is vegan including the eggs and sausage. I tried an omelette and was pleasantly surprised at how close it tasted to the real thing. I don't think I would have guessed this was not real eggs and real meat if you just gave this to me to eat. The texture and the taste was pretty spot on, and the food overall was very flavorful. One minor thing (a me thing) - the omelette did have a lot of mushrooms stuffed in it which I don't like so next time I could try asking for reduced or no mushrooms. The accompanying roasted potatoes were done very nicely. I could have used a tiny bit more salt but overall they were yummy. The sourdough bread was also toasted nicely. Service after the initial order taking was kind of nonexistent but not too big of a deal. One minor nit, for the outdoor seating, it's under a giant tree, so we kept having tree bits fall on our table, including a lot of bugs. These were minor nits though and didn't detract from the food really. My friend who is very picky about his brunch places also loved his experience here! read more

last night's birthday celebration dinner at wild seed was a real disappointment. I've eaten at wild seed three times: a lunch and two dinners. last night was the second dinner. my butternut squash ravioli's sauce was so salty I couldn't eat it. my dinner companion's red curry dish was a bit too spicy for her palette (she had asked the server how spicy was the dish's baseline and was told not very spicy at all). she asked for something to cool it down like coconut yogurt or sour cream. was told they didn't have any. the server suggested cauliflower rice and we were charged for the side. our other dinner companions were served really oily veggie burgers (couldn't be greasy because it a vegan place). it was so good before, but not last night. probably won't be back. read more

Fantastic! Must visit for vegetarians and vegans. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Plenty of space. Great location - downtown. The cocktails were nicely prepared. Tried their in house cocktail - black pink and the traditional bloody mary. Both were good. For the food, tried their Mediterranean platter ( Mezze plate green) from the brunch menu and their wildseed burger. Both were awesome. The burger was supposed to be made from Mushrooms and spinach. It didn't taste any of those but still was great, specially with their hot sauce. Great service and a friendly staff. read more

This was my second time at Wildseed and I will definitely be back! 4.5/5 stars overall, but rounding up to 5 stars. This is a staple vegetarian restaurant in the area. Food: not all dishes are "wow" which is why this restaurant lost .5 stars, but most dishes have a good composition of flavors and textures. I love that this is vegetarian friendly! Service: Quick service and they checked in pretty quickly. Dishes came out one by one but at a good pace. We had to ask for more water, but they compensated by giving us two water jugs Ambiance: very cute and lots of windows for natural light. I love the greenery of fresh plants.

Such a comfy spot for lunch. I came in with my sister and we were both really impressed. I had the spicy sausage pizza and she ordered the chicken sandwich with fries. I still can't believe this place is fully vegetarian. You honestly don't even miss the meat. Everything was super flavorful and satisfying. I also tried the Wild Seed gin and tonic and it was so nice. Refreshing, well-balanced, and clearly well made. The vibe here is relaxed and welcoming, perfect for a casual lunch that still feels special. Definitely coming back. read more

My husband (a vegetarian) and I were craving something fresh, so we decided to try Wildseed. We came around dinner time, and the patio lights gave the place such a cozy, romantic vibe. We sat outside along with lots of other guests, and the service was super friendly. There's also plenty of seating inside if you prefer. The menu is seasonal and farm-to-table, which I really appreciate. I ordered the Kale Caesar Salad with mock chicken. Since this spot is 100% vegan, it was my first time trying coconut parmesan cheese--and I was impressed. The salad tasted just like a traditional Caesar, and the "chicken" was crispy and delicious. I'd definitely order it again. My husband got the Spicy Yellow Curry with forbidden rice. He loved the balance of ginger, turmeric, and coconut, and said the spice level was just right. Both dishes came in hearty portions, and we even brought leftovers home. Overall: Wildseed is a great choice for flavorful, plant-based dining. The seasonal menu keeps things interesting, the atmosphere is charming, and the food is filling and satisfying. We'll definitely be back. read more

When I first became vegan, Wildseed was one of the very first fully vegan restaurants I tried, and I've been a loyal customer ever since. I've never had a bad experience here. I come often, and one thing I really appreciate is that they rotate their menu every season; there's always something new to look forward to. This review is for their Winter Menu (December). For the starters; I ordered the beet tostadas, grilled artichoke, and the creamy celery soup. The beet tostadas are my all-time favorite item on their menu. Always flavorful and consistently good every time I order them. The grilled artichoke, however, was a disappointment; the sauce it came with was delicious, but the artichoke itself was difficult to eat. The creamy celery soup was surprisingly impressive. It was velvety, well-seasoned, and the crispy onions on top added the perfect finishing touch. For the entrees, we tried the paella for two, winter pizza, Oklahoma smash burger, masala bowl, and the orecchiette alla pugliese. The paella didn't have much flavor on its own, even with the vegetables but the garlic aioli elevated it and made it much more enjoyable. The winter pizza was the standout entree for me. It had the perfect balance of sweet and savory. The tempeh bacon was delicious, and the cheese really held its own. I'd absolutely order it again. The Oklahoma smash burger had good flavor, but it wasn't anything special. It needed more sauce because the patty was a little dry. The fries, though, were baked to perfection. The masala bowl had good flavor overall. Especially the curry but it leaned a little too sweet for my taste. Still, the shredded carrots and black rice paired nicely with it. The orecchiette alla pugliese was good, but the sauce mostly sat at the bottom of the bowl, leaving the pasta itself on the dry side. The part of the sauce that was mixed in tasted buttery, smooth, and well-balanced. I just wish it had been incorporated better so it could actually coat the pasta. The atmosphere here is always pleasant. It was very clean, and we sat outside where they had heating lamps, which kept everything cozy. The lights were beautiful. I wish I'd taken a photo. The service here was great. The staff were genuinely kind, and we constantly had people checking in on us to make sure we had everything we needed. Our server was especially helpful. Very well informed about the menu, able to answer all our questions, and overall very proactive. The food also came out relatively fast, which was much appreciated. Overall, despite a few dishes that didn't fully hit the mark, Wildseed continues to be one of my favorite vegan spots in the Bay Area. Their seasonal menus keep things exciting, and I'll definitely continue coming back. read more

Wildseed is a gorgeous modern vegan restaurant with all the vibezz! Fresh plants in every corner, beautiful artwork, fun music, and innovative vegan eats! This review is based on the 2 food items I had because the items my friends ordered were way better. Location: Easily found in the chaotic Town and Country Plaza of Palo Alto. However.. Parking is a challenge and if you plan to go on a weekday during lunch- may the odds be in your favor! You are not only up against other lunch-goers, but also hungry students from Palo Alto High School that SWARM Town and Country haha Pricing: $$ Items on the menu were a bit pricey for the portion sizes but it is possible to find something within budget if needed. Service: The service staff were friendly but not attentive. We had a group of 8 people and never received a refill of water. Food: $10 "Spicy" Cucumber Salad - 3/5 The cucumbers were fresh and had a crisp to every bite! The appetizer may LOOK spicy, but I did not feel a kick or hint of spice at all. The flavors were nice but very mild. If you're going to call it spicy, please bring the heattt. I did enjoy the avocado on top to add another texture. $14 Mushroom "Fritters" - 2.5/5 Fritters are expected to be fried, but these were SOFT and doughy like bread. I also thought that the mushrooms were going to be fried whole, but it appears they chopped up the mushrooms and mixed it into the batter. The aioli saved the dish for me. I was disappointed that the fritters did not deliver on the fried and crispy notes I was craving, so I ate some of my friend's fries- which were delicious. I will have to come back to try other items on the menu! read more
