The cauliflower wings are delicious! I had the oyster burger which was good, and the Philly ! I’d say the teriyaki cauliflower taco was the best!

Wanna love it... - Edit
So here's my experience. Walking into the restaurant, we were not greeted. We figured out the ordering process on our own (not hard, but not your typical sit down and order situation.) I was still excited to try it. The vegan menu options are amazing! I happily ordered cauliflower tacos with terraki and some loaded fries while my bf ordered a Philly sandwich. We had a seat to wait for our order. A little while later, we were told our name was called (which it wasn't). I was served shrimp tacos on accident 🤮 (ours was given to another customer by mistake). It happens, right? ... they made it right... and remade our food. Food was wonderful. Loved it. It was, however, made "to go". Grr... we shared a water to save plastic and ordered "for here". All this to say.... food is great. Service..... well... another story.

Great food, great atmosphere - Edit
This was one of my favorite spots when I visited Nola, they’ve got a lot of dishes that use beyond meat and some really good lemonade. There’s cool art and music too!

This is a gem - Edit
I’m the only vegan in my group of friends that I went to NOLA with, but I’m lucky to have the kind of friends that are extremely open to trying my types of food. You know, some people hear “vegan” and run for the damn hills 😂
Read moreAnyways, it was 5 of us and all 5 got something different. I personally got the (sweet teriyaki?? I think?? They had two options and I’m drawing a blank on the one I got) cauliflower tacos with a side of oyster mushrooms and my whole meal was PERFECTION. The mushrooms were fried perfectly & so was the cauliflower. All of the sauces were delicious. Even my non-vegan friends were impressed and damn near ready to convert. The lemonade flavors are really good too! I got the “house special” which was all 3 flavors mixed: cucumber melon, strawberry, and blueberry
Pros: 100% vegan, Delicious , Quick service

Yummy, fast, and all vegan. Service was friendly and the restaurant had a nice cozy atmosphere for a fast-food place. A must visit if you’re a vegan in New Orleans! Open later too, important in a City with night life like this one!

Vegan Junk food at its best! - Edit
We received a warm welcome upon entering and the food was exactly what we were looking for - vegan junk food at its best.
Read moreI ordered the oyster burger (deep fried oyster mushrooms) with the loaded fries (beyond meat crumbles and queso) and my wife had the DA pressure burger (Beyond meet patty loaded with fixings) with a side salad. Everything were amazing.
The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5: despite dining in, the food was served on styrofoam with plastic utensils.
Pros: Friendly welcoming staff, Tasty vegan junk food, Short wait time for food
Cons: Served in styrofoam with plastic utensils

Tasty! - Edit
The food, staff, and vibe were amazing! I ordered a burrito (which was stuffed) and a burger to go. Midway through my burrito I ordered ANOTHER to go because I knew I’d want one the next day. My son who is strictly meat and potatoes took a taste of my burrito and loved it too! I ate the burger later in the day for dinner and it was the biggest vegan patty I’ve seen. The sauce they use on the burger is very tasty and has a nice kick! Great spot!

It’s alright - Edit
For the price of two entrees, it certainly is not as good nor as large as you are paying. The super-sized burrito lacked a lot of flavor, the only thing that had great taste to it was the hot sausage I had added to it for an extra $3. The Philly cheesesteak sandwich was better, the cheese was well melted but it was not as large as photos on their website suggest. The location is a convenient place right off Poydras and Rampart with lots of parking.
Read morePros: Ample parking, Cheese melts well, Cooked fast
Cons: Expensive, Lacking flavor, Portion sizes not accurate

Fun vegan food - Edit
I always enjoy going to a vegan restaurant with creativity. Although, not the healthiest place, lots of fun offers that vegans end up missing out on. My husband had the Philly, which was really good and he’s picky! I had the fried oyster burger. Which was awesome. Loaded with lots of fried oyster mushrooms and a great sauce. I can’t eat here every day, but would treat myself monthly for I lived here!

Misleading af - Edit
How the frick you gon have Vegan in the name and serve non vegan food?! Ish makes no sense!!! I ordered a bunch of things off the menu one of them being a shrimp taco. No where in the “night menu” does it say or specify that not everything on the menu is vegan. Not once while ordering, getting checked up on, or while paying was I advised that not everything is vegan. I get back to the hotel, took one bite and knew that [censored] wasn’t vegan. Y’all got a lot of audacity callin yaselves vegan wit a twist yet servin seafood. The staff was friendly, the restaurant is dope, the food that’s vegan is genuinely fire, straight tf up but y’all got me all the way messed up! This some stuff that non-vegan owners would pull, smdh

A must! - Edit
This place is awesome. The food is so delicious and everything is vegan. The bayou burger is delicious, comes with fries and is $12. The fried cauliflower is so good, nicely fried and comes with a nice teriyaki dipping sauce. We ate there at the picnic tables. The wait wasn't very long and everyone was very friendly. I cant wait to go back and try something different!
