Latitude 59 — Restaurant in Homer

Not a vegan friendly place at all. We were told over the phone that they have plenty of vegan options — and even have marinated tofu! That was a lie. When we got there, the person working the counter didn’t inform us of our options, and really seemed annoyed to be dealing with vegans at all. We got the one veggie option that seemed we could veganize but had to remove many of the ingredients. We waited over 40 minutes for the most basic sandwich imaginable. During the wait I thought maybe it was taking so long because they had to marinate or bake the tofu, or make a vegan sauce, but no. What we got was unseasoned tofu cubes and some veggies on some meh bread. I went back to the counter to ask for any sort of sauce to make the sandwich better, and they came back five minutes later with some french’s mustard. I’m honestly so insulted that they felt comfortable serving this to us especially given the wait time and price. Not to mention we were lied to about options available to us. Just be honest and tell us you have nothing for vegans. Oh, and the coffee was more weak and flavorless...

We had a gift card to use so went and ordered lunch. Service was reasonable and friendly given they were not particularly busy but we did wait around 25 minutes for a to go order in person. We were disappointed that the protein in both my bulgogi wrap and the bhan mi were just sliced meat. I ordered beef and she ordered chicken and it's just flavorless slices of meat drenched in various sauces. Tasty sauces yes. But sometimes less is more with the sauce. I could taste the kimchi but barely because the other flavors and sauces were overwhelming. To be clear, the descriptions of the food on the menu sound great and really elevated but I personally felt the execution was not as good as advertised. I expected beef bulgogi pieces in wrap form and chunks of chicken in the bhan mi like you would find in those meals where they originated. I have no gripe with the business and wish them well. We just didn't care for the food this...

After getting a chance to look at the menu realized this is not vegan friendly despite coming up on google/happy cow as such. Vegan and vegetarian are not the same thing. They have vegetarian options. For vegans they don't even have humus for your sandwich. I'm not going to spend money on a sandwich with nothing but dry bread, and unseasoned tofu/veggies. The Thai wrap is the most obvious one that could be vegan but the slaw and peanut sauce in it both have animal products(mayo and fish sauce)- so, again you could take out the animal products and have a dry, tasteless sandwich. If you're vegan just go to Subway, they at least have oil, vinegar and pepper for...
