RISE ABOVE RESTAURANT & BAKERY REVIEWS
Delicious, vegan food with lots of flavour using fresh ingredients! The service was great & the food was hearty, flavourful & hit the spot. Vegan comfort food that doesn’t rely on processed vegan foods. The pesto cashew melt sandwich was amazing dipped in their roasted red pepper soup. The Mac and cheese was SOO creamy and comforting. 10/10 would recommend! The patio is also dog friendly.
Love Rise Above! I went with a couple of friends for lunch and all dishes were delicious and the portions are pretty big as well. I have also tried their cheesecake and tiramisu which was also great. Highly recommend for delish vegan food!
I loved this place so much! The atmosphere is very cozy - there's plants everywhere, nice lighting, and super cool art on the walls. The staff was super friendly, and more importantly the food was amazing!

THE LEMON TREE REVIEWS
I found this place because of Edible Options beside them. I had messaged the Lemon Tree on Instagram to ask when their happy hour menu started and they went above and beyond with responding to me. They sent me pictures of the menus and let me know the dates and times that happy hour is open for. My friend and I went here the next day, on Friday afternoon. The service was fantastic. The food was delicious. We had the hummus (probably my fav because it tastes like a falafel in dip form), red pepper hummus, spicy feta dip (this wasn’t spicy at all in my opinion but wonderful to taste). The pitas are buttery and garlicky which was really great with the mix of foods. The drinks were really good and they have a huge selection to choose from if you pick the flight. I really enjoyed my time and am definitely going to come back!!
I have been here a few times and cannot say enough great things about The Lemon Tree. First off, I have been driving all the way from Newmarket just for this amazing food. I have tried a number of dishes and all have been amazing. I especially love the tzatziki, coconut shrimp, Mediterranean chicken. My son especially loves the beyond steak and calamari. My daughter, who is not vegan, absolutely loves everything she has tried to date. Staff has always been absolutely amazing and friendly. Highly recommended!!!
The food and service here was incredible. I'd heard wonderful things about this place for a long time and I finally got to spend a memorable meal with a friend tonight. Best vegan food I've ever had, hands down. They have great drinks too.

VEGAN EXPRESS WHOLE FOODS REVIEWS
I placed a big order for a party. Wow I’m so impressed with everything. I haven’t had garlic sauce like this since going vegan. I bet you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between a “regular” garlic sauce and theirs. The falafel balls are so good. My house smells amazing! Highly recommended for non-vegans and plant based people. You won’t regret it.
Great food! Only suggestion would be to offer various sizes for the wraps, I would have ordered a larger size or just got two falafel wraps for myself. The hummus wrap wasn’t so much a wrap and more of a hummus sandwich. Definitely recommend this place but would advise getting larger size options or doubling wrap orders.
Ordered for the first time last night. The food was delicious! Very fresh, healthy and flavourful. I will definitely be ordering from Vegan Express again.
