Sprocket Bar & Restaurant

I went a couple weeks ago with my friend after we worked out close by, and we were excited that they had such a unique vegan/​vegetarian selection. Neither of us are either, but we appreciate it, and incorporate that type of food into our diet often. We sat at the bar and my friend ordered sparkling wine or champagne and I got a nice pinot griogio. I appreciate that they offered a small pour for me to try since I was contemplating that or another item.
For food we ordered 3 items:
The vegetable tamale: which is probably one of the best vegan dishes I have ever had. The blend of flavors just hit so many notes, the sweet yet hearty nature of the black beans, the brightness heat and acidity from the fruit salsa, the sweet rounded flavors of the plantain, the creamy bright flavors of the avocado crema, and the masa that just brought all those flavors together into one big hug.
The beet hummus: this was a vegetarian item the sweetness of the beets was contrasted with creamy goat cheese scattered throughout, and the toested pistachios brought a nice texture and contrast to it.
The orchid role: vegan sushi! nice textures, good cook on the rice, I was not missing the fish, it stood well on its own. It had a really nice marinade of the vegetables inside, and the pomegranate mayo was a great way to round out the flavors and add something dynamic to it. They have two other vegan sushi rolls I can’t wait to try.
All the food came out in a timely manner, the service was great, food innovative and fairly priced (which is a surprise since whole foods is known for high price items). They have a happy hour as well that has some fun things I would love to try. Even though it wasn’t happy hour when we went we did qualify for a drink special. Since we both got a drink it made it 5 each which saved my friend 3 dollars since her drink was normally 8 for the glass. I will be back

I enjoyed my time here for happy hour, but I didn’t love it because of the changed beers on tap.
Food:
1. The quesadilla was phenomenal! Meat was perfect, it had a nice avocado sauce over it! I would order this again.
2. Cheese platter: 2 cheeses, bread with a few nuts and spreads.
The beer:
They only had 1 non-​local beer on tap. I’m usually all for supporting local breweries and often go to them for this reason, but their beer just doesn’t hold up to the San Diego beers. The first time I was here they had a more diverse selection than the second.
I’ll be back, but I want them to bring back the other beers they had!

This place is great! My husband and I have been here several times and the food is awesome. I highly recommend the fish and chips, the grass fed burger or the jackfruit quesadillas. Great idea Whole Foods!

Good selection of craft beer on tap. The blueberry Almanac has been my favorite so far. They don’t go basic with their selection. The burgers are jaw dropping amazing

Decided to check this place out on my day off for lunch. Sprocket is located inside whole foods, near the bakery. You can buy food in the hot food area and bring it in after you pay, or order from the restaurant. There are lots of beers on tap, including some from Modern Times Brewing! Good selection of wines too. In addition to happy hour M-​F 4−6pm, there are daily specials.
Staff is friendly and food is tasty! I tried the cauliflower vegan nachos ($ 7, $ 5 on happy hour) and green chile braised short rib ($ 19). The nachos were very unique and flavorful. The cauliflower had a tempura fried light texture topped with avocado lime crema, chilies, lime, cilantro, and poco de gallo. Overall very balanced and refreshing, though a little greasier than I expected from the description of being «roasted» cauliflower.
The braised short rib was fork tender and flavorful! The green chile polenta was also tasty, but again, a little heavier than I expected. I liked the addition of pickled onions– the tangy flavor balanced the creaminess of the polenta and heaviness of the short rib.
I will definitely be back to try more beers and food options!

Loved, loved, loved the Vegan Sushi!!! I ordered all three rolls and devoured them. So Ono!!! Will definitely be going back to try their other vegan options. Great location, great staff. Thank you for fulfilling my sushi needs

I’d start wheeling your way to Sprocket and order yourself some of those Cauliflower Nachos, STAT! Yes, the full service restaurant that’s located inside Whole Foods Market Henderson is finally open. Beer enthusiasts make your way here too! Local brewers are featured here.
First impressions…
Glancing at the menu stand in front… wow. pricey! A quick scan and my eye was immediately drawn to the 19 $ for short rib entrée? Inside a specialty grocery store? Well if you can afford to shop here, you can afford to eat here right? Thank goodness that’s the only item that’s spendy. Everything else is fairly priced.
They have a Happy Hour menu which consists of small selection of food and drinks for under $ 7 between 4−6pm. Some real steals too. Pint of the Day is five bucks, the cheese plate that I had was same price too, had a Yuzu marmalade with slices of Brie, Blue and Gruyère cheeses. Jackfruit Quesadillas I tried were really good too! This place is top on my list for Meatless Mondays!
They have a feature daily special as well. IE Mondays ½ dz oysters and Pinot Grigio for $ 10. See posted photo for more.
Ambiance
Seats 72 it says. The dining area is clean, industrial lines. metal chain fits the theme of the name. My server told me that each WFM restaurant has a unique name. This location is reflected on our large bicycle community of cyclists, hence the name Sprocket after a bicycle sprocket! The logo is a bicycle sprocket. How cool is that?
Full service restaurant. So that means you’ll have servers come take your order after the host seats you at a table. Service was great! Real helpful. Everyone from the manager, chef and Sprocket crew came by to check on me. Chef came out to answer a question I had with the Yuzu marmalade.
Restaurant is family friendly, there are several TV airing sports above the bar counter. Limited hours… 11 to 9pm
Excited that there are even more healthier alternatives opened up here! Good job Sprocket!

Never go grocery shopping on an empty stomach again. This cute little restaurant tucked away inside of the Whole Foods Market in Henderson has an excellent selection of food for vegans, vegetarians, and meat eaters alike. 24 beers on tap or wine if you feel like unwinding a bit.
Today I tried the roasted vegetable tamale, seasonal vegetables (roasted golden beets and winter squash), and the Meyer lemon fries. All were delicious, and I was particularly delighted with the plating of the tamale.
Wonderful food and hip atmosphere paired with the superb customer service Whole Foods is known for. And, now that my appetite has been so tastefully satisfied, I can shop without the danger of buying half the store. :)

They have the new menu out now with some great selections, flatbreads, sandwiches, appetizers, all amazing. The staff here today are fast, friendly and really know how to make you feel welcome.
We had a party of 6 today, so we had 2 orders of the wings, they only offer 2 flatbreads now so we got one of each for the table and then some vegan sushi and some regular sushi.
Everything was amazing, the only point I can make is that the wings were not hot when they came to the table, they were cooked but had been sitting around before being served.
Like last time some sushi rolls were well made and some were very sad looking but overall everything was great, the price is right and we will be back.
The one thing I especially like is a girl kept coming around to check on our drinks which is a huge plus in a restaurant. Our glasses were never empty that’s how good the staff was today.
They work hard and try their best to make you feel comfortable and it was a great experience. They have specials running all month so go check them out.

I love the beer selection, truly top notch. They had a certain demographic in mind with their chooses in breweries and I gotta say it’s spot on. You should definitely try their cauliflower nachos as they are certainty the most mind blowing app on the menu. They also cater to the vegan crowd with their Veggie Tamale, Beast Burrger many other healthy options like their Kale Salad served with pink lady apples and candied almonds. Of course if you’re a carnivorous beast like myself then you’ll enjoy the Short Rib entrée that is braised for over 72 hours and the Pub Burger made with grass fed beef. I would suggest adding an egg and bacon to that bad boy. All in all I think it should grow into something special. I also can’t wait for the one on Las Vegas Blvd to open. The future holds big things for this new restaurant concept and my new favorite watering hole. Do yourself a favor and get here soon. Later.

This place is tucked away inside of Whole Foods with no outside sign.
My girlfriend and I came here hungry on Christmas Eve. We gave up searching for food since everything closed early and decided to grab some groceries for the weekend. Lo and behold, a Christmas miracle! A food establishment with an excellent beer list and a really tasty burger (which my girlfriend and I both ordered).
Our bartender was really nice and the ambiance was pleasant with a pretty fun view of people picking out their groceries.
