Over priced, not tasty. My wife and I visited this restaurant last Friday for dinner. We ordered Tempeh Korma in their Specialties and Bamboo Steamer. The foods were not impressive at all, particularly considering their unbelievable prices. The bad experience with the restaurant did not end. In the night, both my wife and I came down with terrible d iarrhea, lasting about a couple of hours. I wouldn't visit this place again and wouldn't recommend to anyone!…
Great tasting, healthy food - nice wines!. We have eaten at Sunflower several times and enjoy it more each visit. Always nicely prepared and presented food, nice atmosphere and very good selection of wine. We eat out a lot and this place has become a favorite!…
Sunflower offers food that is as healthy as it is gourmet..
In Short
This upscale natural-foods eatery creates an atmosphere that blends well-being with high living. Sunflower bills itself as a healthy restaurant because of its commitment to using
whole fresh foods and organic ingredients. Dishes are imaginative and eclectic, with a large menu, which changes seasonally, to take advantage of fresh produce, seafood, etc.…
high end menu and prices with average atmosphere and food.
I've lived in Berkeley California for the last seven years and have been spoiled by the excellent California Cuisine that abounds there. Sunflower Organic Dining had an exciting looking menu and
strong reviews but was a big disappointment.
We ordered the Scallop Blosum, the Beet Carpaccio, the Buffalo Sirloin Steak and the Rosemary Apple Tart. The dining area was so loud ordering was difficult. We waited way too long before we were served any food and also between some of the courses. We were served the wrong appetizer (the the server kindly credited the dessert for us for the mix-up). The Salad and Steak were excellent, as were the Rosemary Olive Oil with Yam Butter and hot rolls. The Scallop was way too salty, the mashed potatoes and herb sauce with the steak weren't very good. The dessert was inedible - rubbery and flavorless - probably the worst dessert I've ever had.
Not a dining experience worth $80+.…
Great Vegan meal when you are out with non-vegans. I bring my out of town friends here when one or more are vegans, but all are not. The menu has always pleased everyone so far. Happy hour prices on their specialties are worth checking out.
