I originally went to Alive! for the novelty of a raw foods restaurant, but was surprised that the food could actually taste good. Alive! is cozy and friendly, and the owner is happy to explain how he made each of his dishes. Favorites include the delicious yam and seaweed soup and the ""Asian noodles."" But the real winners here are the desserts. The vegan cheescake is better than some traditional cakes.
