I have been to Powerhouse several times and have always received outstanding service and amazing meals. I highly recommend the Falafel wrap, and Nanaimo bar for desert!

Went with friends & left disappointed. The smoothies & juices were expensive for what we got; they were dominated by bananas, apples, & carrots to the exclusion of other nutritionally-dense ingredients. I also waited 15 minutes for my juice while the staff took care of customers who followed me. She clearly forgot, but didn't acknowledge it and continued to make... More

Pleasant surroundings,great location.I found it to be very costly,although for this type of restaurant it can be expected. What made me upset was they forgot to make my drink.Last time they did the same thing with my partner ( her 1st visit ).They obviously need a better system of tracking customers orders!

If you love to eat healthy food this is for you. This establishment is run by probably one of the most enthusiastic people you will ever meet. Has even offer a free desert on a few occasions. Enjoyed the seaweed pasta. Two thumbs way up high!!!!

The Powerhouse is my favourite place for lunch and/or when I need an energy boost to get through my busy day. The smoothies and shakes are delicious, nutritious, and filling enough to be a meal replacement. This establishment makes eating healthy easy and delicious. The staff are friendly and always accommodating, and I'm always greeted as I walk through the... More

Not pretentious thinking ppl. They are kind and educational-im not a vegan so its nice when people are still accepting of your food choices. Their decor is great and easy sitting. Not crowded. Great filling foods !!!!

I am crazy about raw food and have been to many raw food restaurants across the country and US. I would really be remiss if I did not take this moment to say this raw food restaurant has gone above and beyond in regards to ethical raw food preparation. Outstanding! The restaurant is clean, the decor is so cleverly attractive... More

We went in to try and find something for my teenaged daughter who is on a very restrictive dietary plan to try and isolate triggers for migraine headaches. Staff were friendly and patient, and very accommodating. We were able to put together a blend of fresh juices and berries that suited our purposes perfectly - Thank You! The place was... More

I am working away and have been on the road for 4 weeks. I was missing home cooking and wanted something healthy to eat, I decided to bite the bullet and try Power House, my reluctance borne of so many disappointing healthy meals that are either bland or dominated by some unnecessary herb - hopefully you will know what I...
