Thursday - Sunday: 12pm - 8pm
In the spare space which Caribbean Spices formerly called home in downtown San Rafael comes a 100% plant-based burger offering. On a brioche bun slathered with Mama’s spread (it’s addictive), a crisp-edged burger meets caramelized onions (also addictive) and the more banal lettuce and tomato. No ketchup necessary!
Variations are many – there’s a traditional sesame seed bun, pretzel bun, gluten-free bun, bacon, cheese and pickles for example – as well as fries and tots to which above-mentioned addictive items may be added. And while the Bay Area chain has fans for its’ chick’n sandwich and lizard salad (perhaps so-named for the way the dressing criss-crosses the greens?), most fans line up for the burgers.
The space is spare – there’s a few tables and chairs in the minimally furnished space – and the drinks menu just features Jarritos, Coke, and water (beer & wine coming soon). No matter. That leaves room for more burger in your belly.
