Creative, fresh and delicious menu. We had the watermelon salad (surprising combination with Greek olives, grape tomatoes, red onions and cucumber), killer crunchwrap (tasty!), pesto grilled cheese sandwich (served with excellent wedges and a phenomenal dipping sauce), Philly cheesesteak (excellent), and soup with beans and coconut (great texture and flavor). The staff was friendly and efficient.

Honestly they do best vegan wings we got sriracha lime they had the perfect amount of flavour and great texture & although they were deep fried they we not excessively oily. The mushroom caps were also a banger because they are able to make a great vegan pesto with all the flavour that’s nice & smooth. The beet salad also great. And the gnocchi although slightly mushy was made with really good ingredients (leeks, asparagus, peas). They have lots of drink options too only regret is that there was no room for dessert which just means we will be back. I also appreciated that our server although the only one working was still attentive and checked in throughout our meal. Highly recommend this place for very clean & delicious v food which I’m sure anyone would enjoy regardless if their diet.

Amazing restaurant! The food is 100% vegan and 100% good. As a non-vegan myself, I did not feel like I was missing a single thing.I had the seitan wings and would highly recommend them. I had them with the maple garlic sauce and they were just perfect.Looking forward to trying more dishes in the future.

Been eating here for years but don’t go as often since moving out of the city. Prices have gone up (naturally) however quality has gone down slightly. After eating here dozens of times, this may be the first time I leave not entirely satisfied.We ordered the Seitan wings before the mains you see in the photos. They’re usually juicier with more sauce, but were dryer than normal this time. The scramble didn’t have too much flavour and I wasn’t sold on the hollandaise (?) sauce. Chicken and waffles were good but salty. Overall, the food lacked character.From 5 to 4 stars, yet still an amazing restaurant with lovely staff and decor. Worth stopping by if you’re in downtown St. Catharines. Vegan or not, check this place out.

Great experience at this restaurant! Food was delicious and the ambience was nice. The highlight for me was the service. The servers were super friendly and helpful, especially with navigating allergies: they went above and beyond to make ensure there was no cross contamination. Next time I'm in the area, I will be back!

Savory vegan comfort food. Wow, was it surprising to try these dishes knowing they were entirely meat and dairy-free!The restaurant is doing outdoor seating so they were busy at the time, we got reservations.The staff is nice and accommodating, would get some good vegan dishes here :)

Great vegan spot. The staff was incredibly friendly. The Forager’s Pie and the stuffed mushrooms were both great!

What a fantastic experience!!! The moment we stepped into this lovely atmosphere of coolness, relaxed and super stylish, sustainable vibes - our entire family including my teenage daughter were in love ❤️!!!The food was delicious! We took potatoe wedgies with spicy mayo, artichoke salad and ginger sesame tofu salad. Let me tell you - the portions were BIG, we thought we'll take half of it with us!!! But the best thing - the ingredients were so fresh, we didn't realized we finished everything and left empty plates wanting more!!! The chef really cares about the client's experience enjoying healthy, filling and unique dining experience! Would recommend this hidden GEM to everyone!!!!Thank you Rise Above - we definitely will be back!!!! P.s. their beverage lost is unique and house white wine is superb!!!!

Rise Above truly lives up to its reputation as a fan favorite. From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted by a friendly and attentive staff member who made me feel right at home. The atmosphere was simply incredible, creating a warm and inviting ambiance.The pesto grilled cheese was an absolute delight, perfectly combining the rich flavors of pesto with the comforting goodness of grilled cheese. It was a mouthwatering experience that left me craving for more. And let's not forget about the chicken wings! They were cooked to perfection, offering a tantalizing blend that was both delicious and flavorful.Overall, our visit to Rise Above was a delight. With their great dishes, excellent staff, and unforgettable atmosphere, it's no wonder why this place is beloved by fans. I highly recommend giving it a try and indulging in their scrumptious offerings. You won't be disappointed!

A very cool restaurant....love the vibe. The food is delicious and everything is fresh. I'm not even a vegetarian and I loved it. I had the beet burger and it was so yummy. I can't wait to go back.
