Take-out
Opened summer 2015 a vegan casual food restaurant near the MARTA station. Hours are irregular at this time so must call ahead! On the menu are items like veggie burgers, seasoned jackfruit, tacos, chik-n sandwiches, chimichangas, chik-n & waffles, and even a raw collard wrap. Black-owned. Reported closed December 2020.

Amazing - Edit
My husband and I are there about a year ago. I had the chili cheese fries and he had the philly. All is vegan. Staff was great and friendly. The place is in not so great part of town, BUT is so worth it. My husband and I love hole in the wall type places. Atmosphere was great as well.

Got off-menu suggestion - Edit
Overall, everyone but one of our party liked their food. (I think he didn’t know what to expect from what he was ordering). Mine though—mine was amazing! Down to the sauce (I selected their homemade ranch). I don’t think what I ordered is on the menu anymore, but Corinna at the register takes me through to something delicious.

Pros: Great recommendations with yummy results, Finally, yummy chicken nuggets, Large portion size
Cons: Expensive for a big family (2 adults and 4 kids), A lot of oil, A bit of a wait

Love! - Edit
The menu is massive + heartfelt. I had the shrimp po' boy + oreo cheesecake. Delicious, wonderful food! So glad I stopped here - highly recommended. To go containers are disposable so bring your own tupperware + utensils. Sometimes very busy, so call ahead + order.

I'm not sure - Edit
Ok, so let me start with the service. The men that run this place absolutely amazing, this is why I support them. They care for the people they serve and treat everyone with kindness. Once I ate in and could not finish the food (side note: they give you alot) l asked the brother to put it in a to go box. Well, it got busy and they forgot about me. Needless to say they throw my food away. The brother really felt bad I waited so long and then them chucking my food he say next time you come in its on me. Thinking that i can order the same thing and he got it. Noooo next time I went I ordered three things and he paid for it and gave me a free piece of vegan cheese cake.
Read moreThis is about the food. It's a good idea, however, the food is really for a person transitioning into veganism. It's FAST FOOD. They have a non soy and soy menu, they have some raw dishes so they are trying to bring healthy eating home. What I had was good but for me because I eat like a squirrel it was like five meals for the price of one.
Pros: these guys are very caring and have above great , Service. Food is very good as well.
Cons: location. it was a little hard to find parking but, For the care these men show to the community it is, Worth every bit of it.

Vegan Comfort Food - Edit
This is a great place to pick up some good food that’ll fill you up at a fair price. I agree with others that it is certainly not the healthiest - a good bit of the menu consists of fried and/or processed food. That said, the food is good... really good.

Delicious comfort food - Edit
This was the first place we found open on New Year's Day after our flight to Atlanta. We were STARVING and sleep-deprived and this food brought us back to life!! The place doesn't look impressive from the outside, and there isn't much seating inside, but it's a cool vibe and amazing food. Definitely worth checking out. Fishless po' boy was SO good, so were the bbq cauliflower wings.

Delicious food huge portions - Edit
Had the jack fruit based Philly cheese steak sandwich. It was so wet I couldn't pick it up but it was delicious, flavorful, and spicy. Every sandwich comes with huge side of fries too.
Read moreHubby got a BBQ sandwich and loved it too. The jackfruit was the best I've had anywhere. I would prefer to just order the sandwich without the fries.
Be prepared for a little wait up to 10 minutes upon ordering.
Pros: Lots of vegan options soy and non soy , Large portions
Cons: Uses Styrofoam if getting food to go.

Comfort Food - Edit
This place is straight up southern comfort food. I had the shrimp po boy and sweet potato fries; they were great. The shrimp was so delicous. Vegan shrimp is generally hit or miss, this one is a definite hit.

No Friggin' Way! - Edit
Saw other reviews 4 this spot as part of my quest around Atlanta 4 vegan food & knew I had 2 try. My 1st attempt was a send off as the site said they were open that day but it was incorrect. My 2nd attempt found them closing a tad earlier than advertised. Not angry enough 2 B dissuaded, I tried 1 last time & my God am I glad I did!
Read moreOf the many appealing choices I settled on the "shrimp" po' boy made of konjac root. The choice was more out of curiosity than desire. It. Was. A. Shrimp. Po'. Boy! Simply amazing. The portion size was magnificent. The fries were on point. & the place itself is a gem N disguise; something like Dr. Who's phone booth - janky & plain on the outside but opens 2 a whole 'nother world within!
The food was so good, I ordered cheesecake 2 go. It was mango flavored but didn't have any kind of mango sauce or slices on top. But after experiencing what I just had with the po' boy it was nothing 2 take a chance. I didn't touch it until days later back N Chicago. Oh my fu**ing god!!!
I've had a ton of vegan cheesecakes, even some that were great but they're usually made of soy so I had 2 lay off. Their's, as I recall, was not. It was hands down thee best cheesecake I'd ever had since going vegan N '99! It approached Junior's status from NY. Just dumb stupid good.
The service is dope. The staff is very matter-of-fact but still cool. They came off knowledgeable about their product & R fairly quick about getting your order 2 U. The outside really is a deterrent but it only masks a magical place on the inside.
Go.
Pros: The food is shockingly great!
Cons: The storefront is less than inviting.

amazing food, looong wait - Edit
The food is delicious, but we had to wait almost an hour for our to go order. In their defense, there were a lot of people to serve. Probably will only call in orders from now on. I'd still recommend this place though.
