I have a few people in my close circle who are vegetarian. Some are actually vegan as well. Though I am neither, there was a time (short time) when I tried being a vegetarian. granted it was for a month, I surprisingly found out that I could actually do it. You may think vegetarian cuisine would be bland and boring, but in actuality it is quite the opposite. There are many selections in vegetarian food that offer some variety and are very tasty. PLUS the food is good for you! Go Figure! Well not too long ago I met a friend for lunch and had to figure out where to take her because I wanted to put her in her own element and cater to her taste buds rather than my own. I had heard about Native Foods and remembered that my friend lived pretty close by so I thought, why not try something new? Native foods in Costa Mesa is actually in a cool little center. The building itself is pretty neat from an architectural standpoint. They offer vegan and vegetarian menu items ranging from salads, sandwiches, bowls, specials and pizza not to mention desert. We started out with the sweet potato fries which were yummy and then we ordered a salad and a wrap. I had the twister wrap which consisted of Organic greens, fresh avocado and cucumber salsa, creamy chipotle sauce and your choice of crispy or grilled Native Chicken. It was really tasty. The selection of fresh drinks was unique and good. They had lavender, watermelon and native tea which all are a fresh concoction of flavored drinks they make daily. If you have never been there or have friends who are vegetarian I suggest trying this place. You will be pleasantly surprised.
