There are lots of vegan pizza options in the Toledo area with Blaze, Pizza Fire and Za Za Wood Fired Pizza. Add another choice for vegans: Bambino's Pizza in Sylvania.

Bambino's added vegan options for their pizza by making a vegan sauce as well as carrying vegan cheese. Their crust was already vegan and so, with a few additional modifications, they expanded their market.

We enjoyed their pizza, ordering a large garden pizza vegan-style that came with mushrooms, green peppers, onions, tomatoes and black olives. They have a standard set of vegetable options. The crust was in between thin crust and thick crust, think standard crust but of higher quality. The toppings were fresh and the vegan cheese was applied just at the right level (too much vegan cheese can be overwhelming, at least to us).

They deliver (not sure what their delivery area is) and have a small dine-in space. Right now, the Sylvania Bambino's is serving vegan pizza, and the Eleanor Avenue location is owned by the same folks and may have vegan options as well.

This is high quality, everyday pizza. There are no gourmet trendy toppings, just the standard ones that you can find at most pizza places. We really enjoyed this pizza. Bambino's will stand out as the place to order for a big party, when you have to order non-vegan pizzas in addition to vegan ones. In situations like this, in the past, we have gone with standard pizza places and ordered a veggie pizza without cheese. No more.

Thanks Bambino's for making vegan options available to a wider audience and making it possible for us to enjoy your delicious pizza!

P.S. They also have hummus available, though we haven't tried it yet.

We were excited to try the food truck and went for their official kick-off. To make it simple, everything on the menu is 100% vegan. The rotating menu has a gluten-free section and a non gluten-free section. We ordered three entrees: Loaded Nachos, a Sesame Ginger Noodle Salad and Black Bean Sliders with Rosemary Sweet Potatoes. We also ordered a brownie and a cupcake.

Given that their menu will rotate, we don't want to comment too much on individual dishes except to say each was delicious and creative. The brownie was deliciously gooey and the cupcake was tasteful and elegant. This is food that would be an excellent introduction to vegan cuisine for non-vegans but who are willing to give it a try.

Given that it was their first day, there was a long line but food was prepared quickly and the staff greeted everybody with a warm smile.

We're excited that The Leaf and Seed took a chance and started this food truck business in Northwest Ohio. We urge everybody who follows our page to check them out!
