Great food, but slow service - Edit
We’re so glad we went to Vegelicious in Antioch! We went with a group of four, where two of us were vegan/vegetarian. All four loved the food, and especially that mac and cheese!!! Would really recommend the fried chick plate!
Read moreUnfortunately, the service was really slow the day we came in. The server did give us a warning that the food might take 30-45 min, so at least they let us know before we ordered! The place still gets 5/5 since the food was great, and this does not seem like the norm at the place.

So delicious! - Edit
Black-owned vegan soul-food in Nashville. We got the “no BLT Po Boy” and a plate of Mac and cheese, collard greens, BBQ and the best yams I’ve ever had. So good!!

Delicious - Edit
This place as a whole is beyond a 5 Star establishment. The staff, the food, and the restaurant as a whole is fantastic. Yesterday was my second time to visit this location, but the first that I actually dined inside. Definitely recommend to any one who is vegan, alpha gal positive, and they even have gluten free options. P.s. the pineapple cake is the best cake I've ever eaten in my life!

Good Comfort Food - Edit
I went with my partner and father who typically don’t eat vegan food, and they both liked it a lot. The employees are very friendly and checked in on us when we stayed. The only reason I didn’t rate it higher, is because I did feel like the food was slightly better at the other location. Even still, it’s one of the best restaurants in the Antioch area and a great vegan local option.

Absurd wait - Edit
The food seemed irrelevant after waiting 30 min for two glasses of water and an hour for our soul food plate and lasagna. There were four other tables and no one had water after 30 min. If we hadn’t already paid we would’ve left.
Read morePros: Food tasty, Nice portions
Cons: One server who said little, No heads up there would be a long wait , Food not hot when it eventually arrived

Not great - Edit
I’m surprised at all the raves about this place. The food was mediocre at best. I was expecting the fried “chicken” to be crispy but it was pretty mushy. The roll was good, as were the greens. I’ve had better fries. Service was eh. Wish I’d gone back to the vegan place by my hotel but I wanted to explore and try more veggie food in Nashville while I was there for 2 days.

Southern Veggie Comfort - Edit
Great southern comfort food with a veggie flare. The Philly Steak was great, but the Hot Chicken was awesome! With a side of Mac and Cheese, collard greens, and fries, I felt like I was taking a trip back in time as a child sitting at a diner in "Small Town" Tennessee. Delicious!

Amazing southern comfort food - Edit
Great vegan spot right outside of Nashville. I had the SoulChik plate plus an extra side of yams and loved everything. The soy curl chick’n was perfectly seasoned, the mac n cheeze had a pleasantly unique flavor, the yams were delicious, and the fries and ranch hit the spot.

Phenomenal experience - Edit
I wish I had a picture to post, but the food was so good, I didn't even think to take one. I ordered the reuben, and it was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Friendly service & good prices. I definitely plan on visiting again.

Worth the Drive - Edit
I was on my way to the Nashville Airport and used my trusty HappyCow to find a good place to eat before being subjected to the dreadful airport options. Vegelicious was about ten miles out of my way but the reviews were so good I decided to make the trip. It was definitely worthwhile! I had the BBQ Po Boy and Taters. The meal was delicious and the owner and the woman who served me were so gracious it was twice as nice. The place including the rest room was immaculately clean. They have a wide menu catering to any taste. The owner came out for a hello and it turned out he was from the same state I'm from. We had a long chat and I left full of delicious vegan food and new friends. For a great vegan meal and friendly folks you should definitely eat here!

A nice vegan lunch spot - Edit
This was our first visit to Vegelicious as we were traveling through the Nashville area. This little cafe is tucked into a strip mall, the store is tastefully decorated, clean and well lit. The menu has a wide variety of plates, sandwiches and brunch items. I chose the Soul Food plate with bbq soy curls, mac & cheeze, greens, yams and a yummy roll. The seasoning was well done, though the yams were a bit on the sweet side for me. The price on the unsweetened iced tea was a bit steep considering that it does not include a refill. The service was quick and the food was brought out hot. We had a nice meal and would recommend a visit.
Read morePros: All vegan items with lots of variety , Close to the interstate , Quick and courteous service
Cons: Iced tea without a refill included for $4.50

Fresh Delicious - Edit
My husband and I had the soul food plate with Mac and cheez, sweet yams, steamed collard greens, barbecue Chikn and a roll.
Read moreThe servings were huge and everything very fresh. The chickn wasn’t too spicy and a bit sweet. Same with the yams. Just the right amount of sweetness.
Everything was fresh and made in house.
Owners very friendly and went out of their way to make us feel welcome.
Pros: House made soul food

Amazing vegan southern food - Edit
When I saw the sign for this location pop up, I was stoked immediately. I’ve never been to the OG location bc I don’t venture downtown much, but this place is SO GOOD. So far, I’ve tried the fried chickn sandwich, bbq chickn sandwich, fried chickn salad, strawberry cheezecake, & the pièce de résistance, the soul food plate. Everything is good, but I dream of the soul food plate & get it most of the time. Perfect comfort southern food made vegan! What’s not to love?! It’s a little pricy, but it’s a local business in the current times, so understandable. All I’m am saying is, you need to go there now bc it’s awesome!!

Phenomenal - Edit
Great for seasoned plant based individuals or people new to the lifestyle. Lots of folks act as if plant based is strange and are so shocked that the food "actually tastes good", with an urban spin on food, this place is great and you can open some sealed shut eyes.

Average food, slow service, small portion - Edit
Went there twice and twice wasn’t satisfied, I wanted to give another try before my review.
Read moreTook 32 min to prepare 2 sandwiches and 1 salad with 3 sides of fries. A side of fries for 2.5$ is literally 10 fries, the large tuna salad for 15$ is 90% green salad. No presentation, service is kind but slow, we saw clients being served before us when they arrived 10 minutes later. Globally overpriced for the quantity and average for the quality . Was happy to have a new vegan place in this area ( since there is nothing) but this place unfortunately doesn’t meet from far our standards.
Pros: Lots of vegan options
Cons: Small portion, Slow

Disappointing food & service - Edit
Serve food that is warm, well seasoned, and not over cooked. The BBQ tofu was too much bread and sauce… and the sauce wasn’t good. The lasagna was bland and overcooked. #Veganuary

Amazing Soul Food! - Edit
I was traveling through the area and got some takeout from this small cafe, at their Antioch location. Small garden salad was delicious (not sure if their “honey” dressing had bee honey or vegan honey; ask if you care). The hot fried chicken dinner was excellent. Seasoning was great and fried chicken strips were great. Fries, mac&cheese, and greens which came with it were also delicious.
Read moreTakeout container for the main entree was compostable, but salad was in a plastic clamshell and it all came in a plastic bag. Would encourage management to do better in this regard but otherwise kudos on a wonderful meal.
