Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!
Anokha Cuisine is going Green, Greener, Greenest! We are moving toward a more sustainable, enlightened food service.
Here is a short list of what our restaurants are doing to reduce our environmental footprint.
These include things such as food choices and
packaging which our customers will notice when dining at our establishments.
- We use compostable and recyclable plates
- We use biodegradable plates and utensils made from corn for our takeout.
- These plates and utensils won't sit in landfills for a thousand years.
5% additional discount if you bring your own containers!
If you dine in please bring your own container for your leftovers and get 5% off. If you bring your container for leftovers please mention this to our waiter during while placing your order. And if you bring your own container for take out please mention this directly in your order.
Also allow an additional 15 minutes during pickup. Why not make this your New Year's Resolution? Bring your own containers to pack up leftovers. We believe that more restaurants should encourage customers to do this!
We don't serve imperiled species.
Our chickens and eggs are from the Fulton Valley Poultry and Petaluma Farms. We will not serve bluefin tuna, chilean sea bass, grouper, atlantic swordfish, or any other imperiled species. To learn more consult the Monterey Bay Aquarium's. www.SeafoodWatch.org

We serve LESS meat, and the meat we serve is NOT factory farmed. Commodity meat produced in cruel, environmentally damaging conditions is unfortunately the norm.
We want to show our commitment to doing the right thing, so we have eliminated industrially raised meat and reduced meat overall. The majority of our meals are vegetarian and vegan, and we are serving more vegetarian options that ever before.
The production and distribution of industrial meat contributes significantly to climate-warming gases. We all need to eat less of it.
We serve seasonal and local produce whenever available Anokha Cuisine is dedicated to serving wholesome, substantial meals made with
top-quality ingredients, many organic, locally sourced and made from scratch. You won’t find canned soups or commercial salad dressings here.
We purchase locally grown and organic produce whenever possible. About 90% of our food is fresh, local and in season. Because we know that produce in season tastes better! It also costs less, supports local growers and doesn't need to be air-freighted from abroad.
Don't Panic, Go Organic!
We will gladly pay up to 25% more for organic produce. We serve organic food, much of it is local as well. Some items are certified organic, others are grown without chemical and are just as good. We care about food quality as well as the a healthy environment for all of us.
We purchase from reputable local farmers and farmers markets such as Oakland's wholesale produce market and the Meadowbrook Farms in Nicasio. www.meadowbrook-nicasio.com
