This small eatery is primarily a vegan oasis (so no dairy/butter/cheese) focusing on organic cold pressed juices, organic green smoothies, seasonal salads, soups and specialty coffees. They do offer chicken and eggs which can also be added to any selection. This WAPFer had no problem finding several options. They will eagerly customize menu items to accommodate your special needs. The house-made juices are sold in Mason jars, with a returnable deposit. Order at the counter. They seem to do a lot of take-out, but location has a pleasant but simple, hard surfaced eating area with large windows and seats about 12. A sink in the dining area invites you to bus your own dishes, and people do it.

This was my first experience eating at Detox Kitchen, and I’ll go back if I am in that area because there were more items on the menu I would like to try. My tasty and generous spaghetti squash bowl was more than I could eat. Lisa Smith (former chapter leader) enjoyed her cauliflower toast as well. She even thought her middle-schoolers would like it. Lisa also tried one of the fresh juices with spinach and cucumber. Fresh and tasty. We were both surprised by the strong emphasis on raw veggies from the brassica family (possible goitrogens), but you can substitute other greens. Quite a few other snack and non-food items were available, some I had not seen, aimed at helping you move to a healthier lifestyle. I am not opposed to the vegan diet. It can be beneficial if used as a temporary cleanse and not as a lifestyle. But I would not review a purely vegan restaurant here. Because the chicken and egg options are available and can be added to any menu choice, a WAPFer would be able to eat here. I missed the healthy fats, though. Maybe next time I’ll bring along some parmesano reggiano to add to my entree.
