First time here. Very pleased with the atmosphere and the timing of our arrival. Started getting busy after we arrived the menu has so many choices and they list everything on the menu including allergenic food and gluten-free options. You will not be disappointed. Save the flavor and also make sure to get one of their signature drinks. It will be a place to remember. ✨️

Went to the pre soft opening of Grains on Adams ave. Saw the post from friends on IG. We had the a few of the new items and it was delicious. It’s the weekend menu for now brunch 12-3 pm. Not sure if it will be all day menu in the future.great quaint spot friendly environment, chill spot. Will definitely return. We usually go to Madi but I can say the wait is much less and the foods and drinks are above par.

Food is fantastic. Order at counter. Employees are nice. Very clean and chic. Portions are reasonable but not huge.
Bahn Mi sandwich was a little different from other versions, but delicious. I would like to see a little more diakon though. Salad vinaigrette was out of the park awesome.

Very long day working the Kaiser strike how restorative a visit here is! I did not realize it was Vegan until arrival.
The reviews were so strong I was on a fast track. Vegans know how to balance sources of protein. Just be open minded about that and give it a whirl. You will not only survive but indeed THRIVE. Thanks Grains!!

I ordered the Bahn Mi, it was pretty okay bread was soft and the jackfruit was flavorful but overall just okay. The fries were little bland but the amount of food you got for the price was good! Not my favoirte but I would come back and try something else. The restaurant was cute with a nice patio. Would try again.

The food here is incredible! The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff are so friendly. Even though I’m not vegan or vegetarian, I was blown away by the flavors and quality of the dishes. I almost never remember to take a photo because I’m too excited to eat.

Stopped here for a quick bite and ended up enjoying a full meal. Hong Kong Chicken was incredible! Monkey latte was delicious

The eggplant and tofu is really good — the sauce is very light and flavorful. The mango and sticky rice is my favorite dessert, and the probiotic drink is refreshing.

My boyfriend has been vegan for over 5 years and I’ve eaten at countless vegan restaurants all over the country with him. We went to grains because we were visiting San Diego and wanted to explore some good vegan food in the area and grains came up on multiple searches. When we got our food I don’t think I’ve ever had a more disappointing food experience in my life compared to what we experienced at grains. The food was made quickly I can’t deny the fast service but the quality of food was so embarrassing. We ordered the bahn mi sandwich and the Philly cheesesteak and both came on the same bread and had hardly any toppings on it. My boyfriend’s sandwich cost $14 and had 5 mushrooms inside, and some cheese and the sandwiches weighed no more than 2 punches it was literal air. My sandwich had simple vegetables and a vegan meat that was horribly seasoned and off putting. This was the first meal we ate when landing in San Diego after our 9 hour drive so we were very hungry and chose to finish the food but wow that was lighter than a snack it felt like it gave us no actual healthy nutrition or vegan protein source and I know for a fact the quality of ingredients put into making those sandwiches didn’t cost more than $2 to buy and it was so up charged for what little was given. This place was embarrassing to eat at and be seen as a vegan restaurant because they are not making sure to give their customers a good eating experience. It’s obvious to me the owner of this establishment is interested in hardly serving any food and trying to maximize profits. I am very confused how this is highly rated after eating here. Maybe the owner paid people to give high reviews because there was nothing high quality about this place.

The food here is amazing . I wanted to try everything on the menu because it all sounded so good. The dishes were so delicious! The popcorn chicken and buffalo cauliflower are a must-try. The pad Thai was also incredibly tasty. It’s a shame we live far away, or we would definitely be regulars here.
