Vital Root Nutrition Facts
Vital Root specializes in fast-casual plant-forward cuisine in a former candy factory on Tennyson Street, emphasizing real ingredients for nutrient-dense vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free meals that balance flavor and wellness while honoring sustainable sourcing. Macro-conscious diners should opt for the Sambar Bowl with lemongrass tofu, roasted cauliflower, and nori cashews, which delivers high vegetable volume and tofu protein in a balanced, lower-carb format ideal for portion-controlled macros. The falafel wrap stands out as the highest-protein item, packing chickpeas and plant proteins into a portable package estimated at 25g protein from legumes and grains. Watch out for Korean BBQ veggie wings, whose crispy breading and sticky sauce layer on unexpected calories from oil and sugar.
This setup allows flexible ordering—add tofu to Pad Thai or bowls for protein boosts—while prioritizing veggies over grains keeps carbs in check across the fusion menu of bowls, wraps, and tacos.
Best Macro Pick
Sambar Bowl (~25g protein from tofu, moderate calories via veggie-heavy base).
