I'm just here to add another 5 star review for mantra! The food is PHENOMENAL (and everything is soy and gluten free!). The vibe is chill and I loved the energy!!! As soon as we walked in, we were greeted with a huge smile and a warm welcome. For the food, we had the Korean Bbq tacos and the Margherita pizza. I couldn't stop smiling after every bite. I also couldn't stop saying "this is soooo good!" The rose lemonade was also delicious. Please go support this amazing restaurant because I need them to be around for years to come! This place is a must try even if you aren't vegan/plant based.

I stayed too late at the art museum on Thursday night and was HUNGRY! Fortunately this delightful oasis was open and not far so I was able to get an order of Tex Egg rolls to take home. I should have tried more dishes! These were super crunchy, perfectly cooked, containing the most delicious combination of flavors that I could not identify. I just know I felt very satisfied and very healthy!

The food was insulting. $26 for a pizza that barely had any toppings. The saddest thing I had seen in a while. The crust smelled and taste so bad too. As if it had been rotting in the freezer for a while. The sparkling tea they had was the only good thing because I believe they didn’t make it. When they asked us if we liked it we said no, cause honestly couldn’t even try to lie about that. They asked if we would like to try anything else from the menu and we said no and they said they’ll take care of it. They came back with the check, pizzas still on it and said something about oh we could have asked to make it crispier…the pizza being soggy was the least of my concern. Just put ingredients on it! The sauce drizzle was the literal meaning of drizzle I suppose.

Plantain nachos were transcendental (and big enough for 2). Such a pretty and romantic atmosphere, really beautiful music playing. Every detail was obviously thought out. Truly kind service. It was so nice to be at this restaurant.

Um. YES! Just get here! Coconut calamari, eat it WITH the arugula and the ?!!! Yucca fries! Korean BBQ tacos! Lioness! Brussel sprouts! I don't even like ice cream, especially on a cold day, but THIS!!! YES! Worth the 1 hour drive from Tomball!!! Walter is so sweet!

Me & my partner are new to the Houston area, so when I was googling vegan restaurants to go to for our date night, I was naturally intrigued when I saw that mantra had exclusively five star reviews on Google. My GOD does it live up to the hype- ordered coconut calamari, the lioness, Korean tacos, & an extra order of yucca fries because we didn’t want the meal to be done yet! We both snapped a pic of the coconut calamari for its beautiful presentation; everything else also looked just as beautiful but by the entrées we didn’t want to waste any time taking pictures lol Our server was incredible, & the bartender was as well! We weren’t sure what to get in terms of cocktails so the bartender made us drinks based off what we said we liked & they turned out AMAZING! On top of all that, everything is also very reasonably priced, especially considering the quality, I want to say we paid around $80/$90 for two appetizers, two entrées, & two custom cocktails including a 25% tip. I can’t say enough good things about this place, it’s truly one of the best vegan restaurants I’ve ever been to!

I was surprised to see this place having all 5-star reviews! But after coming here, it makes sense why!1- Food: Food was absolutely delicious!

First I would like to start off with the ambiance and comfort that mantra provides down to every detail. The lighting, the music, the decoration, the chairs, the plates, the silverware even the water glass container was amazing! Now for the food, the food was spectacular!!!! We got the yuca fries, plantain nachos, blackberry balsamic pizza, and the oyster masala. There’s not one negative thing I have to say about all four dishes!! All four were DELICIOUS. If you come here I HIGHLY recommend Getting the yuca fries, plantain nachos, and the blackberry pizza. The blackberry balsamic pizza had the best GF pizza crust I’ve ever had the texture was perfect and it was cooked perfectly. Mantra deserves the five stars in its wholeness!

Great find on Resy. Had a hard time choosing what to eat as everything sounded really good. Ended up ordering rolls, broccolini salad and nachos. Everything was very flavorful and presented very well. Service was excellent too. Definitely coming back soon.
