Mantras Veggies Coffee - San Jose

Visited Feb 2020 and there is a for sale sign outside and seems to be all closed up

I tend to come to this place for lunch on saturdays, every time I taste something different and it never ever dissapoints (although I really really love the Pad Thai). Totally recommended.

I've been a customer at Mantras for a while now, and they never disappoint. I can honestly say that every single meal and drink I've ever had here has been amazing. A total treat to the senses. My boyfriend who is not a vegetarian is also a big fan. The specials are always great and you can't miss with the A La Carte menu. Every dish comes with a small salad with fresh dressings made with local ingredients. The cas dressing is one I particularly love and was a great surprise the first time I tried it. The menu is quite diverse, with veggie, vegan and raw vegan options. I find their menu to be the most balanced out of all vegetarian places in the area, with meals having lots of vegetables and protein and not solely relying on grains. The service has always been excellent, with friendly staff. They are now moving to a larger location nearby that will be pet-friendly.

It was a good experience. We read the reviews and almost didn’t come but decided to try it for ourselves. The service was good and the food was also really good. A little pricey, but the sunset views and atmosphere were great.

We had just some appetizers and drinks. Personally I had hummus and quiche plus drinks. Friends had tuna tacos and some shrimps Food was excellent and waiters were nice. View from the place is top notch. Prices are high but as I mentioned we had a good time and didn't break our bank by managing our order careully.
