Raw School

Bliss Raw Cafe & Elixir Bar Opens

Your personality is raw to the bone.

Bliss Raw Cafe & Elixir Bar will get your eating habits that way, too.

The itsy-bitsy upper Greenville bistro (we’re talkin’ eleven barstools, 30 patio seats) leaves no room for bull. It serves only uncooked vegetarian sips and bites.

That means handmade, healthy, alcohol-free cocktails with mixers like hemp seed, goji berries, and orange oil. (Aloe-infused paradise lemonade is the best.) Entrees include burgers, tacos, sandwiches, salads, and pizza. Yes, without meat. No fatty ingredients, either. It’s dinner only for now; lunch starts soon.

Nearly everything is vegan. And when a rare something isn’t organic (because of seasonal challenges or the like), the hippie chefs and knowledgeable waitstaff will let you know.

They dish it straight.

Bliss Raw Cafe & Elixir Bar, 6855 Greenville Avenue (214-987-0204 or blissrawcafe.com).
