All The Way Live

The best raw food I’ve ever tasted! I had the kale, quinoa & BBQ mushrooms with coconut water… everything was delicious. I can’t wait to come back & try some other dishes AND DESSERT

I truly enjoyed the nut burger, chickpea chili and the apple pie. Looking forward to trying more options

I’m so glad we stopped in here. Went to check out Germantown and was looking for somewhere to eat that had vegetables. I hit the jackpot with my 4 item bowl of super flavorful and hearty ingredients. Also we had a chick pea garbanzo burger. It was large enough to share. The only thing missing was music or background sound, though it was peaceful. I think this place could offer some kind of hot tea connoisseur bar to add to the experience, maybe make a presentation out of it or something? It has the space and would so seem to fit in. Also bright Open sign to complement the peaceful wood sign outside

I have been here 2 times and have not been disappointed. I have tried 3 different things every time i’ve gone here and everything was great. Can’t wait to go back when they have the Lasagna.

It’s hard to find a place that has delicious raw food. The place is really nice, the owner is kind, the food is good, the experience is with it. I would recommend for a vegan, raw diet

Very surprisingly good. I am a typical manly man that loves bacon lol. However, their walnut burger actually tasted like meat! … well, not a burger, but meat… Liverwurst! Lol.

This is not a review of the food as I was not able to get that far in my experience. I arrived during posted open hours on a Saturday afternoon to an empty restaurant. I looked at the menu and heard a phone ringing over and over, perhaps 8 times. I started to think I was the only one there. It stopped and then started again, and I heard it answered in the back. I approached the back and called out hello a few times, giving some time in case the person was on the phone. Nothing. I decided to sit for a bit. Called out again and nothing. At least 10 minutes passed (I had walked a long way and it was warm) before a young lady casually came from the back and said hello and confirmed they were open. She said not everything was available on the menu that day. Then she said she could take my order in two minutes as she had to take care of something. She did not return in two minutes or the generous five I gave her. I left. I do not expect to return. Two stars for a nice chair and cool space after a long walk on a warm day.

I wish this place were better. Cool location, love that it’s on Germantown Ave. (Novelty of locations gives an otherwise one-​star location, two stars.) But as a former vegan and a fan of vegan food, I was disappointed.
It was empty at lunch – huge room though. And despite the emptiness, the service left something to be desired. Five small scoops of various vegan pastes in a salad were offered at the alarming price of $ 20. High quality products, sure, but way overpriced for what appeared to be the work of a food processor. Maybe raw, vegan isn’t for me, but the food lacked in creativity too. The flavors weren’t all bad, but I don’t see myself returning.
Again, I’m not vegan or raw, so my assessment may not be what you are looking for. But surely even in a world of limited options, there are better ones than this.

I love this place and I have been visting them for years. The food is wonderful and the owner is a healer. You get more than food from this café, she has integrity when it come to the food she offers and prepares. All Raw food is not good for you, I love the food because it loves my body back.
Clean, fair prices, knowledgeable staff, excellent food, open your mind and give it a try!
With gratitude

Not sure where everyone is complaining about being over priced. I’ve eaten at some raw places that were more expensive with much smaller portions. That’s the important thing here, I got the small platter (choice of 3 sides for $ 12) and was pleasantly surprised with the amount of food i received.
Wasn’t too thrilled with their beverage program. I was expecting more fresh juices.
Don’t let the exterior of the building dismay you, it’s quite beautiful inside. They should really liven up the outside of the building tho.
Customer service is a bit strange as well. So if you’re expecting formal dining service you might wanna go elsewhere.

Love raw food and the lifestyle. Stopped by this place on a Saturday afternoon. Completely empty which I expected. Wanted to get a take out to try their raw vegan deserts. We got two of them. The apple cake and carob pie. They were pretty good, but not as good as other raw vegan deserts I had. Thought their staff could of been more helpful and friendlier. Their menu is a little expensive in my opinion for raw foods but I understand it’s all fresh ingredients. Different from other raw veg restaurants I’ve been to, don’t think I’ll be back.

I never like raw food until I came here. It’s not the best location but once I get in there and sit in the relaxed area with the kind owner and her sweet daughter I forget all about that. The food is new, different and tasty. The deserts are great and guilt-​free. The whole experience was great. I’ve been twice and will go many more times I am sure.

The other reviewers hit some great points The food is that good and I doubt I will go anywhere else for my «new» raw lifestyle.
Today I had the pleasure of finding this place after a 45 minute drive and having a nice chat with Bev and she assured me that raw food can be that good. Raw goes beyond the Vegan and Vegetarian Lifestyle and requires a true belief of the benefits — physically and mentally. Mentally I was starting to wonder if I could give up good addicting food. Physically I have never felt better and it’s only been a short time since I started — relatively speaking and thank Goodness All The Way Live Café put me back on track!
I ordered the Chickpea Burger and Apple Cake, and as a previous review mentioned, I too wonder if this is Raw. IT“S THAT GOOD!!! Better than GOOD!
I’ll be back. Probably several times a week. My new lifestyle requires a 45 minute drive but that’s the easy part knowing what is waiting for me!

I tried All the Way Live for the first time tonight and it was amazing! My fiancé and I got appetizers a chickpea sandwich, lasagna and cheesecake. Everything was great. We got there too late to dine in, but it seemed like a nice relaxed atmosphere. We will definitely be back soon! I wish there was a place like this in my neighborhood.

The Raw Vegan cheesecake is delicious. Honestly, I think they are lying about the raw and vegan part. It’s that good. I’m not even a vegetarian so check this place out. You won’t be disappointed.

Delicious food in a nice relaxing interior design setting. Not cheap, but well worth it. The neighborhood is so-​so, as a young man was pulled over by the cops and handcuffed as I approached. lol. But that won’t stop me from coming back. The restaurant serves both raw and cooked vegan foods. The owner is very friendly too.

I was introduced to All The Way Live and Sister Beverly in January of this year. Since then, I have not had one iota of a desire to dine anyplace else.
It is a spiritual hangout that happens to also be a restaurant. The menu is vegan — half of the items completely uncooked, raw, and alive. The vibe is among the most chillest that I have found in my travels.
My last visit, Sis Bev made a special dish for me: Wakame salad, Nori sheets, Barbecue Portabellos, and Avocado. All the way live. One word: SUPERB, perfect, and just right.
I love the fact that right now it is a select few beautiful souls who frequent the place. But, hey, I can’t hide a gorgeous treasure such as this. So if it feels right for you, definitely stop by and pay a visit to the only restaurant in Philadelphia.

I heard about All the Way Live through friends that practice ayurveda and the raw food lifestyle. They raved about Nyeisha (the owner) who warmly welcomes you into her home and adapts a standard American restaurant menu into meals made with all fresh organic fruits and veggies. There is no dairy, wheat, soy, or any animal products in her food. Most of the menu is completely raw but you can ask for a cooked dish if you prefer.
The place I heard about, I guess what used to be her home, was moved to Germantown ave. It is a very spacious lovely café with very eclectic furniture. You can order dishes in small (a choice of 3) or large (a choice of 5) with sides or main dishes.
One of my favorite things about eating at more natural places is fresh juice and fresh tea. One of my biggest pet peeves is bagged tea. Yuk gross.
We got fresh apple cider and chamomile. Our appetizers: sea green salad, sprouted chick pea hummus, quinoa salad marinated with cilantro and fresh veggies (this was awesome!). Sprouted wild rice with kale and a hot dish-​the sabgi-​mixed veggies cooked in Indian spices. Last, the raw lasagna made with raw nut cheese, which was also a good size and ended up being too much food!
The dishes were prepared all wonderfully over a bed of greens. Everything was flavorful and was the most interesting date I had in a long time! I’d have to say 5 stars on the presentation. Not to mention the dessert menu is fantastic. Raw cheesecake and carob cake WOW melts in your mouth. also Nyeisha comes out and talks about the dishes with you, letting you know what’s in them and asking you what you think. She catered to my allergies and was very respectful and interesting. Her website is truly inspiring. Her bio explains how the western diet had affected her health and she had cured herself of diabetes, obesity, and depression by returning to raw cleanses and a healthy lifestyle. It is rare to find places like this on the east coast and not have to go up to New York. I’m so happy Philly is coming around :)
