Don't go if you're in a rush or extremely hungry and you need food quickly.
Starting with positives, food tastes great and the portions are huge. I got the bam bam burger with animal style fries. Great tasting vegan comfort food.
The building was kind of dirty. Dead house plants, etc. maybe that's the vibe they're going for though...
There were only 2 other people in the restaurant during the time I was there and it took me 29 minutes for my to get my food. (I started keeping track because I was extremely hungry that day and was confused as to why it was taking so long when the restaurant was almost empty.
They also got my order mixed up with how I wanted to eat. I asked for dine in, with the desert to go. Got the opposite. Kinda weird to give me a boxed burger but then a zucchini bread on a fine in tray, but whatever.
I'd go back because the food was really good, but next time not when I'm that hungry or when I'm hoping to leave at a reasonable time.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Hey Greta I'm really sorry hear about your experience. We've had a ton of growth recently and have onboarded a ton of new staff and there are definitely going to be some mistakes made. This is not our usual standard. I am super glad however to hear that you love the food and the portions cuz that is a standard that we strive to uphold. Hoping you'll come back again have a better experience and change your three-star review have a great day

Best vegan food I've had in my life. Owner is the nicest guy. I got the buckaroo banzai sando with the salt and vinegar fries. amazing, all of it. Ketchup was even good!

The food is incredible, the atmosphere charming, and the staff lovely. I got the Chicken Sando and it was to die for. I saw a review that was posted yesterday saying the restaurant had a dirty feel and I think that couldn't be further from the truth (they also said the food had no flavor and I think they may just have no tastebuds left on their tongue). The portions are hearty as well so great value for your dollar. 11/10 would recommend.

My wife and I stopped in twice over the last few days and loved this place. The staff were cool and friendly.
We had the sweet potato tacos which were stinkin good
The carne asada bowl which was a whole lotta goodness
The meatloaf sandwich was bomb
And the pesto chicken gyro was a way too much food for 1 person but really stinkin good
My kids had the chicken nuggies and loved them!
Thanks Scott!
PS the carrot cake is the best we've had.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

I was excited about this place because it is all vegan and got good reviews. However, I will not be going back and was nervous to try some other places in the area with similar food because it really wasn't good.
I got the Carne Asada Bowl that had seitan carne asada, black beans, brown rice, lettuce, some sauce that was strange, and I think a pico and avocado. It really had no flavor so I tried putting some hot sauce on it, but it was a strange flavored hot sauce so it didn't help either. The lettuce seemed a little old and I couldn't tell any particular flavors in the food so I am assuming they weren't the most quality ingredients. My friend got the Havana bowl and said mine was better... I am not sure how that was possible because I couldn't even eat half of mine (threw much of it away). I had the worst gas all through the next afternoon then I think from the bowl that I had too. Maybe they didn't wrinse their black beans? It should be noted that I eat lots of mexican food and beans and don't have this problem normally.
I also got their vegan carrot cake that was alright, but way too sweet for my liking. I am guessing it is their least sweet desert as the others all looked like straight sugar. Mainly the frosting was too much so I just decided not to eat that part.
The inside had a bunch of concert posters and fun stuff hanging up so that was a cool vibe, but it also kind of felt a little dirty. Just spend the extra money and go to The Plot.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Bridget thank you very very much for your feedback. I am so sorry to hear that you found your food and experience with us not to your liking. We use only the freshest ingredients and take what we do extremely seriously. It seems in this case we failed miserably. I would really love to make this right so if you would consider sending me an email so I can get you a full refund I would really like to make that happen. If you are so willing please contact me at scott@erisfood.com

We used to eat here regularly when we lived here and make it a point to always stop by to get our Eris fix on when we're in town. This used to be a regular stop on my 30 mile bike rides and biking in and out was a Breeze.
We're fans of any food Scott creates and love the food and ambiance here. We will continue to follow him to wherever he goes and have been fans of his at various establishments.
My go to is the Fysh tacos on gluten free homemade tortillas. The coleslaw on top really makes this dish, and I could eat just that alone!Scott always has some great specials or a recommendation for something new to try, too.
The food comes out quickly and there's always a good vibe and great decor.
When expansion is being considered, I'm hoping for some version of this to pop up in the Knoxville area. :)
Sadly, Scott wasn't in the shop during this visit, but I have no doubt we'll see him again.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

Best food in CA. Wonderful service, great family friendly atmosphere, and the food is phenomenal. I had the Super Gyro and it was MASSIVE. Best gyro I've ever had. My husband got the tacos and loved them. We both had a delicious lavender lemonade. Can't recommend this place enough!

Loved the vibe of this spot. Immediately entering the restaurant, I was greeted by a friendly face who was very welcoming and informative when discussing the menu and deals.
I ordered the triple taco combo and I must say that these were thee best vegan tacos I've ever had! I brought mine to the beach and should have had it right after ordering to enjoy it hot and fresh but still good. The tortilla did a pretty good job at holding all of the contents.
I will definitely be back! So much of their menu sounded delicious!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - David H.Montebello, CA01525May 3, 2024
First time trying Eris and gotta say we will be coming back! Food was phenomenal for numerous reasons - unique and creative, MASSIVE portions, and the overall atmosphere of the place. Thanks I will be returning with my vegan wife
