EXCELLENT!

Cozy atmosphere and the food is fantastic. Wait staff is very friendly and helpful. Quick service. For non-vegans, it's still a tasty option. Little pricey but worth it!

Good mix of traditional NOLA dishes and random foods

We got the gumbo, beignets, both the tofu and eggplant poboys and also the nachos. Random mix but all very very good!!! The staff were nice, the vibe was comfortable. A little expensive but portions are pretty good!

WOW

This place is amazing!! Ate here for multiple meals during my stay in NOLA, and wish I could have eaten for more meals. The artichoke cakes were to die for — would highly recommend 👍🏽

There’s also a vegan boutique next door!

Fun to try NoLa dishes

I ate here twice. It was fun to try vegan versions of authentic New Orleans dishes like gumbo, po boy and beignets, but honestly found the food somewhat lackluster. The gumbo and tofu bo boy were pretty bland. The smoothie I ordered was chunky and icy which are two adjectives you never want to apply to a smoothie. Beignets were fun and worth getting. I may have ordered the wrong things!

Pros: Fun to try authentic NoLa dishes, Good beignets

Cons: Bland

Loved it!

Nice cozy little place that was fantastic. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Serves alcoholic beverages.

We started with the artichoke cakes that were melt in your mouth. Then I had the bbq sandwich and friend had po’boy sandwich. Both were awesome and served with potato salad. Then the beignets were so delicious and covered in powered sugar.

Pros: Good food, Friendly staff, Good prices

Great find!

I was so happy to find this place! Great service. I had the chickpea salad, eggplant “Parmesan,” and a delicious mocktail. A much-needed addition to NOLA’s food scene.

Worth the Stop

We picked up an order during a road trip. It was pretty good but could have been improved. It was our first time having vegan benniets.

Tofu Po Boy: Good, but needed more flavor and was dry. The tofu could have been cut up smaller and the only topping was a little mayo. We would have preferred much more mayo and some seasonings sprinkled on the mayo to increase flavor. This would be simple and add a lot.

Vegan Jambalaya: Really delicious but seemed quite expensive for the size.

Vegan Benniets: Really delicious a bit yeasty. We'd never had them before going vegan.

Restrooms: Okay, could have been cleaner. Both are single stall and are for all.

Parking: We were able to park right on the street. We did arrive quite late so not sure of other people's experiences.

Pros: Restrooms for all

Food is amazing

I highly recommend the crab cake and the chili fries. I had more expectations about the ceviche, it definitely not authentic but the food there is good!

Excellent Vegan Food

This restaurant is a gem! My husband and I were visiting New Orleans and took the Street Car over from the French Quarter. Everything was delicious, and presented beautifully! It is nice to sit down in a restaurant with table service and have 100% vegan food! My favorites were the Nachos with a yummy cashew sour cream and the artichoke cakes!

Pros: 100% vegan, Many GF options , Right next door is a Vegan Boutique also

A must visit

Every time we visit New Orleans, we end up eating at Seed at least twice, and wishing we had eaten there more. The Southern Fried Nuggets with buffalo sauce are one of my favorite foods on the planet, and we always get the delicious artichoke cakes. The eggplant pomodoro is another one of my favorites. The staff is always friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. I cannot recommend Seed enough.

Pros: Excellent food, Nice vibe, Friendly staff

Loved it!

It was so great to visit New Orleans for the first time as vegans and find the great foods we used to enjoy in New Orleans. My favorites were the gumbo with spicy setan, the artichoke cakes (resembling crab cakes), and the fried tofu in garbanzo batter with agave mustard. We enjoyed it very much and went back another evening.

Fantastic food and service

Fantastic food. Kind staff. Marvelous service. Cosy neighbourhood with old houses close to museum area and old tram/street car to take you to the French Quarter. We liked the chickpeas sallad, strong pad thai made from curled cucumber and green sallads. Also tried the other Seed restaraunt on the other side of French Quarter. Same food but more buzz and in an even cosier neighbourhood. We went to Seed 4 days during our week long stay in New Orleans.

Pros: Ecological and lots of love

Cons: None

Okay food

We were so excited to eat here since it seemed to be one of the most popular vegan places in the area, but we were a little disappointed. The tofu po'boy wasn't too appealing- just plain fried tofu that didn't taste seasoned at all, pretty dry, not a lot of flavor in the sandwich overall. The nachos were ok, but the cashew sour cream was super chunky and not at all tangy like recipes I've made before that actually mimic dairy sour cream. I had never had a beignet before, but they were very chewy and the dough itself had no sweetness without the powdered sugar. My boyfriend said they were nothing like the beignets he had before going vegan.

Pros: Great service, Nice area

Cons: Lacking flavor
