Loved it - Edit
We ate here a few times during both of our trips to Nashville, and each time was fantastic. The most recent time we just got a few sides, sweet potato casserole, curry chickpeas. But we've had the southern bbq burger, collards, pad thai salad, and more before. Their desserts are great too - we've tried the cookie dough and chocolate parfait. Everything is always fresh and delicious. Wish we lived closer because we'd be here all the time!

so, so good! - Edit
I just love this place. My go-to dishes here are the pad thai bowl or the barbecue bowl, both over sunflower brown rice. The staff is friendly, the food's always good, and it's so relaxing. Highly recommend!

The Sunflower Cafe was such a great find! Everything our party tried was delicious. If I lived here, I would be a very regular patron!

A must go for Nashville veg scene! - Edit
Every time I go through Nashville, I make sure to stop at Sunflower. The food never disappoints. From simple dishes like the protein bowl (rice, kale, and beans) to fun options you never get anywhere else like crab cakes, you are in for a treat!

So good - Edit
Came here on a recommendation from Dahlia Piercing Studio. So many good choices. It was hard to decide. I went with the Tempah buffalo wrap and potato salad. So much flavor. And the staff was super awesome and really nice. Glad y’all are here!!

One of my Nashville faves - Edit
We enjoy their vegan dishes, unfortunately we don't frequent them as often as we should, due to the Wild Cow being one of our all time favorite restaurants in the nation, located in the same town.

Good experience - Edit
Delicious food! I love the southwest salad the best. Have items like sautéed kale, southwest quinoa, Thai tofu, hummus, and salads. Also have a soy-free menu and ‘little sprouts’ (kids) menu, where some vegan restaurants do not. All items on menu are vegan unless dairy cheese is added.
Read morePros: All items come vegan unless dairy cheese is added, Tasty home-made vegan ranch, Nice beer selection
Cons: Pricey, Avocado are usually hard

BBQ and beer on the patio! - Edit
Never had a meal I didn't like, but I especially recommend the BBQ. Try it on a bun, in a wrap, or in a quinoa bowl with Asian slaw--you can't go wrong!

Nice cafe - Edit
I got the sesame kale, mixed beans, and quinoa bake. My favorite were the mixed beans. The sesame kale was cool but needed a little more seasoning. The quinoa bake was cool also but that needed a little more seasoning as well. Overall I like this place. You stand in line buffet style, order your food then take your tray and sit down to eat. Oh and they have a nice selection of food. The staff is friendly as well.

I absolutely loved this place. I'm traveling from out of town so I've only had the veggie burger but the food, atmosphere and staff are all lovely. I definitely recommend everything they have even though I couldn't try it all!

Pleasantly Surprised and Loved it! - Edit
At first when my partner said he wanted to come here and he said it was vegetarian I wanted to look for an all vegan place so I didn't have to navigate the menu. I just wanted to walk in somewhere and order vegan without double checking.
Read moreBut after we went to Graze I said yeah let's go for dinner. Well, I was delighted to know that the menu was all vegan! unless you added dairy cheese. And it wasn't like Wild Cow where the option is under every menu item to get cheese.
There was no wait for us and we went through the cafeteria like line. I got the traditional bbq on a bun with potato salad and sesame kale. This sandwich was so good. All the flavors melded together to make one heck of a sandwich. It was cole slaw and and tomato and spinach on it. I added mustard to my potato salad because that's how I like it. I needed that kale side for the greens. All in all this meal was neither too heavy or too light. I definitely recommend. My partner had the thai ginger tofu which wasn't my fave but he loves it. The collard greens were good, too.
Pros: Pretty much all vegan, wholesome, lots of options and good value
Cons: none

The staff is so nice and genuinely friendly. It was my first time visiting today. I got the all American burger and potato salad. I loved the food. It tasted so fresh and real. Then I went back for the vegan cookie dough. Oh my gosh. Unreal! Will definitely be back when I come back to Nashville!

Well worth the visit! - Edit
I'm from out of town and stopped in. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. They allowed me to sample as much as I liked and helped me choose an entree. They recommended the veggie burger and I got it in a wrap along with the oatmeal raisin cookie dough. ON POINT! I will most definitely be returning.
