Urban Vegan Kitchen

On its own website, Urban Vegan Kitchen describes itself as '100% Vegan & Plant-Based'. The restaurant's menu is entirely plant-based, with no animal products listed. Because the kitchen is fully dedicated to vegan cooking, no animal products are present on the premises.

As a 100% vegan kitchen, all dishes are by definition vegetarian. No meat, fish, or animal by-products appear anywhere on the menu.

The kitchen is 100% plant-based, so there is no meat on the premises. Every dish is suitable for pescatarians and also for vegans.

According to the venue's own website, the menu is kosher certified. No certifying body is named, so the specific kosher accreditation cannot be confirmed. A lower confidence applies, as this is self-reported information from the venue.

The menu has a dedicated 'Gluten Free' section with multiple labelled options (marked 'gf' or 'gf*'). However, the menu explicitly warns: 'our kitchen prepares foods that contain gluten, nuts & soy.' The asterisk on 'gf*' items signals shared-kitchen cross-contamination risk. No dedicated fryer or separate prep area is mentioned.

The menu explicitly warns 'our kitchen prepares foods that contain gluten, nuts & soy.' Multiple dishes contain cashews or almonds (e.g. cashew cheese sauce, cashew alfredo, toasted almonds). Some dishes are labelled 'contains nuts'. Staff are alerted to allergies on request, but no dedicated nut-free prep area is mentioned.

The menu has a dedicated 'Soy Free' section listing several dishes and specifying modifications (e.g. 'seitan version is not soy free', 'specify no numu'). However, the kitchen explicitly prepares foods containing soy, and cross-contamination risk is acknowledged in the general warning.

The menu includes a 'Garlic & Onion Free' section with several dishes that can be modified to exclude garlic and onion (key high-FODMAP ingredients). Staff modifications are required (e.g. 'specify no chili agave glaze', 'specify no red onion'). No explicit low-FODMAP claim is made; this is an inference from the garlic/onion-free options. Other high-FODMAP ingredients (e.g. beans, wheat) remain present throughout the menu.
