Love love love - Edit
The food is incredible and the portion sizes are quite large. My girlfriend and I couldn’t finish it all so we took some to go. This spot is very queer friendly too, with gender inclusive bathrooms. Would definitely come again

Classic Ann Arbor veg - Edit
Seva was the veggie stronghold for decades. It is still great but not what it used to be.

Save room for dessert! - Edit
This is an Ann Arbor standard. It's all vegan or vegetarian and their menu is vast! There is something for everyone here. Even the meat-eaters in my life enjoy eating at Seva. And, the dessert is amazing! They seasonally change items and have specials each week.

Great vegan options - Edit
I’ve been a patron for years and have never been disappointed. Great desserts and drinks. Can never go wrong with the Gen Tso Cauliflower. Might seem boring, but my favorite is their Beyond Burger. Pesto Pizza Sandwich & Vegan Mac are honorable mentions. Their Tofu Scramble & Veracruz are my newest tries and they were both incredible.
Read morePros: Great dessert options, Breakfast portions are huge, Good atmosphere

Good food! - Edit
Seva is a great Vegetarian/Vegan restaurant! So many different options for apps, entrees, and desserts! We had the Breakfast Wrap (modified vegan, tofu and vegan cheddar), Cilantro-Peanut Stir Fry (vegan as is), and Red Velvet Cake (vegan as is). The breakfast wrap was very good and very filling. I could only eat half. My partner wasn’t a huge fan of the stir fry, but that could just be a taste preference. The Red Velvet Cake was AMAZING!

Pros: All vegetarian/vegan, Lots of choices, Great vibe from the restaurant and staff

The vegan Reuben sandwich is good.

Similar to the Detroit location. Slightly different vibe but Ann Arbor has a vibe of its own and this location is a top spot when you’re looking for vegan/ vegetarian food options

The old standby - Edit
The vanguard of vegetarian food in Ann Arbor, Seva stands the test of time. The Birkenstock clad hippies of the 80s flocked to the original downtown location. The food is usually good and the vegan desserts are typically the best part of the meal.

Best of the best in A2 - Edit
Tried and true A2 staple with tons of delicious vegan fare, warm staff, comfy atmos, good bar, reasonable prices, and plenty of parking (so important in Ann Arbor). Careful with the vegetarian options that can be made vegan - be sure to specify clearly what you need. Lots of places allow me to bring my own containers for take-out, not this place; but dining in, then putting your food into your own container is acceptable.
Read morePros: Great food and tons of options, Large portions, caring staff, Parking!
Cons: Wish it was all vegan, Can't bring your own containers for take-out

Great dinner spot, especially on Wednesdays - Edit
We made it here recently and both went straight for the Reuben. It looked, and was, delicious!
Read moreSeva has a great choice of sides with their sandwiches as well. Pictured is the peanut kale salad which I strongly recommend. (The fries are good too.)
Best of all it happened to be a Wednesday. Seva has *half off* all draft beers on Wednesday all day, which is a really great deal. They serve a small but good range of beers; I had the Michigan-local Drafting Table Rezolute, and really enjoyed it.
Great atmosphere here too. Not particularly loud or busy when we went.

Great food, atmosphere, and service. - Edit
There are a lot of options, with everything I ha e tried being delicious. The prices aren't horrible since the portions are large and can be split by 2 people. I go here a lot and recommend you try it out. Yam fries, vegan Cobb salad, California tofu scramble. All sooooo good.

Great for family ordering - Edit
I love this place! It’s my go-to with guests because there are so many options, and non-veg people still seem to really like it. Their family pans are awesome, too. Delicious food! I only wish they’d make a more digitally accessible menu.
Read moreUpdate: They have added and improved online ordering and no longer have a poorly viewable menu on the website! Woo hoo!

Great vegan options - Edit
One of my all time favorite restaurants! There’s so many incredible vegan options and the staff here are also aware and very knowledgeable. I’ve never had a bad interaction or mistake with food, and it’s always been super pleasant.
Read moreI love the vegan cobb salad, so many textures and tastes (the dressing is phenomenal) and oh my gosh, if you like peanut butter and chocolate you HAVE to try the chocolate peanut butter cake they have. I might like it better than the salad 👀 #Veganuary
Pros: Tasty vegan options, Daily specials with guaranteed vegan options, Great staff and atmosphere
Cons: Pad thai is a bit bland for me, Some food can be on the more oily side

I'd been craving a reuben for the longest time - Edit
I tried the vegan Reuben sandwich with yam fries and I was very impressed. I don't typically like tempeh but they cooked it in a way that made it taste so delicious. And the yam fries were *chef's kiss*

Great Plant Strong Cuisine in Ann Arbor - Edit
My friend and I went to Seva for lunch. She is an Ann Arbor native and remembers when Seva used to be located in downtown Ann Arbor. My friend is vegan and has been going to Seva since 1991 when she first became vegan. Back then she recalls fondly that Seva was the only vegetarian restaurant in town besides a since defunct vegan Chinese restaurant. Seva has since moved to a spacious location in a strip mall area. I give the ambience 5 stars as we were able to secure a roomy booth and when we arrived it was fairly quiet. By the time we left the place was packed full which is great that so many people were enjoying plant based meals although it was slightly noisy yet equal to attending an acoustic folk concert instead of the noise at a punk rock show at nearby vegan Lunch Room. I give Seva's food 4.5 stars. Although the Lunch Room had better food I much preferred the quietude of Seva. I ordered the T.L.T. tempeh sandwich with the peanut kale salad. I was surprised that the "sandwich" came in a wrap form. The tempeh was excellent and the wrap came with guacamole that was great and normally it comes with cheddar cheese so instead subbed it out for daiya cheddar cheese to make it vegan. I found the peanut kale salad to be excellent as well as tasted very fresh. It basically was kale, shredded bell peppers, shredded carrots with peanuts topped on top to get it a peanut flavor. It wasn't at all oily and feel that the mashed peanuts gave it it's flavor. My friend opted for a triple combination with the peanut kale salad, roasted potatoes, and steamed broccoli. I tried a little of her roasted potatoes and like my friend I agreed with her that the potatoes were a bit oily hence the half star deduction. The steamed broccoli was tender and great. I liked seeing all the Ann Arbor people there and also the walls were decorated with local art of paintings that had an alternative goth feel to them. On the way out I saw a chalk board showcasing regional microbrews. I don't drink alcohol yet if a diner who is comes here is fond of it I'm sure they will be in near wild heaven like Michael Stipe.
Read morePros: solid plant powered cuisine, lovely ambience

Consistently Good - Edit
We like the tempeh Caesar salad, general tsao’s cauliflower, and their vegan desserts. They serve milkshakes with choice of vegan milk and vegan ice cream. They also serve alcohol if you want a drink with dinner. Wait staff is friendly and knowledgeable about vegan options. I would say the menu is mostly vegan.
