Aguacate Sanctuary of Love — Restaurant in Florida

Yeah nope, no. They’re profiting off of people who actually come out of interest for the environment and animals. Whether you’re vegan or not (I am) I wouldn’t come here. I thought it was gonna be good vegan food and an environmentally friendly environment. First off, they use plastic cups, utensils, and STRAWS!! Straws kill animals even the zoo down the street knows that! The vegan food doesn’t even taste very good; I can make better stuff at home or go to a local farmers market and get it CHEAPER. the prices are INSANE. $10 for a BURRITO? Are you kidding me. Don’t even bother with the vegan Cuban “sandwich” you only get HALF of a sandwich for $5! Meanwhile, the cows are tagged and ready to be transported to the meat factory ): and in a cramped up small pen where they’re fighting over the shade of two trees. SAD. Terrible customer service! No one asked me how I was doing, how the food was, nothing! Just, “are you ready to order yet?” That was it! Won’t be coming back, needless to say, who wants to spend $30 on two smoothies, a burrito, and half of a sandwich. NOT TO MENTION all of the plants, herbs, produce, and “fresh” things they have for sale are ALL store bought. They’ve got stickers and everything, stopped by the local Publix and Home Depot much? I’ll go with fresh, local, and organic foods from my farmers market next time. Thanks. Hire better staff cause they are all rude and careless people. And start thinking about your carbon footprint and effects on the environment! Stop PREACHING about going green and actually do it! I know this place is for those people who love social media and look perfect and flawless on there but in reality are miserable; but some people actually care. I don’t care HOW pretty that ceviche looked, it was...

The food overall was good, the steak sandwich was amazing, the flavors kept me guessing and wanting more. The breakfast burrito was really good, my husband loved it. We had a beef empanada, which was tasty. However, the croquetas leave much to be desired. They were super hard, uneatable, I would skip it. We also ordered a side of cilantro mayo, and hot sauce, both were great. The coffee was okay, they make their own oat milk and it needs to be creamier, I stopped drinking a few sips into it. The freshly squeezed orange juice was awesome. They also have free self serve water, which is much appreciated on a hot Sunday morning.

Now, the atmosphere isn’t very “sanctuary-ry” if that makes sense. Because of the fans, the loud speaker with music and people trying to speak over those, it makes for a very hectic and unpleasant experience. Also, the tables are high for the chairs, and the rest of the seating areas are not very comfortable. Wear mosquito repellent, we didn’t and left with lots of mosquito bites. Also, be prepared to clean your table, there are lots of chickens and roosters running around, and there was poop on almost every table.

I would not return, but I am glad I tried it. That steak sandwich was worth it. Maybe, maybe I’ll order...

I've come here a couple times and most of the menu is pretty tasty. The Aguacate burger is my favorite. My first time here I didn't even know there was a sanctuary, I just thought there were chickens who roamed the eating area (they seemed pretty comfortable jumping on tables and stealing my food lol) .

The next time I came I wandered to the back and found the sanctuary, and I wasnt sure if I should even be there? There was no clear signs of where visitors should go or if it was staff only (there was no employees back there to ask). It honestly looked like somebody's backyard. The cages were very unorganized and the ground was muddy, and no grass for the cows either.

Overall a kinda weird vibe and what really caught me off guard was the state of the chickens. I guess I got catfished by the pics online and the cute chickens I saw over near the juice bar but it was really sad. Idk if these were just rescued but they look worse than a factory farm chicken. Anyways, instead of cute selfies with the animals these are the pics I took. Absolutely gross. I honestly don't know if I can continue to eat here in...
