Okay

Enjoyed their lasagna; however, it needs a bit of "cheese" on the top. A whole lot of red sauce on the top makes it a little too acidic. But good flavor.
Had their pancakes which didn't set well with me as it seemed very greasy and heavy.
Cheesecake was more like a bar. But tasted good.

Pros: Many Options, Friendly Staff, Flavorful Foods

Cons: Limited Inside Seating, Rough Parking Lot

Best vegan soul food!

We were driving through Tennessee on our way to Asheville and wanted some vegan food. Being that it's New year's they were slammed but you couldn't even tell! I got the hot fried chicken sandwich and my boyfriend got the hot chikn plate. We collectively ate all of our food it was so good. Everyone is super friendly and it was nice to have some outdoor seating to enjoy the fresh air. If I'm ever back in Nashville I will definitely visit again :)

Pros: Fast, Yummy, Filling

Cons: None

Brunch 👎🏻

Went for brunch and was very disappointed. The breakfast burrito is tiny & very bland. The coffee (black) is $5 and any refill is $5, which wasn’t told. It’s also in a paper cup which seems rather wasteful. I guess the upside is that the pancakes were alright, but really nothing special....We might go back to try the lunch options, but this was by far very subpar when compared to other options in Nashville.

Cons: $5 coffee $5 refills, Burrito unappetizing

The hype is fake news.

$38 for two subpar paper plates of food, a cup of coffee (that went unconsumed) and a bottle of water. I do not understand how this business has gotten a 4.8 (as of now) rating. It is very basic. Paper plates, plastic silverware, overly loud music in a room smaller than your average shed where 5 tables crowd and the seat backs touch. The macaroni and cheese that everyone raves about is completely devoid of any dimension and is essentially a bowl of flour and nutritional yeast. The lasagna was okay, but nowhere near $13 worth- you will get a small square with a boring ball of bread. Don’t even think about ordering a coffee unless you have burned all of your tastebuds off and want destroy your central nervous system. You can buy a better beverage at a freaking Starbucks cheaper than the $5 charged for a small paper cup of their disgusting sludge resembling motor oil. Basic, basic, basic. We walked out disappointed and I myself rather perturbed that the staff even asked if the coffee was too strong (as we had left it untouched) and upon replying “yes”, were still charged: $5. Not a classy joint, my husband said he would have preferred to eat an instant cup of soup, would have been just as satisfying. The only conclusion I can reach for why anyone would enjoy this place is if they haven’t tried many other vegan restaurants.

Pros: No animals were harmed

Cons: Everything else

Hidden gem

Although it is tucked away in a residential area this place is a hidden gem! It is a cozy restaurant with only 5 tables inside ( many picnic tables outside). The lovely soft jazz music and friendly owner husband made us feel at home. We got the Soulfood plate and a Reuben with home fries which were both excellent, as was the cheesecake. The sorrel (jamaicain beverage from hibiscus) was delicious-like a fruit juice with hint of cinnamon. We also liked the ginger beer. We talked with the owner wife/chef as well. Such nice people and such good food.

Miss southern food? Look no further!

I needed southern food, but was busy working, so decided to see who delivered to my area. I saw this place and started looking at the reviews and the menu.
Boom, my eyes see fried chicken, mac and cheese, and greens....and cheesecake.
I have to order.
20 minutes later I am scarfing down.
This is the best vegan mac and cheese, other than my own obviously, I've had. And the ranch was so bomb when dropping the chicken in it!
Do not get me started on the creamiest cheesecake known to man.

If you havent gone, you're missing out!

Pros: Southern, Lots of vegan option, Mac and cheese

Cons: None.

Best pancakes & people!

But the pancakes... So perfectly crispy and soft, not dry, great coffee, the vegan sausage tasted like the real thing. And the owners made it feel like we were having breakfast in their family kitchen. We'll definitely be back!

Pros: All vegan!

Soul Food Gem!

Amazing soul food restaurant. The spicy chicken platter was fantastic and all of the sides were incredible. My parter got a burger and fries and also loved his food. The fresh ginger beer was a must-try! Definitely try this vegan version of a super authentic soul food joint!

Great food, great people

You have to love a vegan brunch spot on a rainy Saturday. This family restaurant does it right, with lots of pancake options, veggie sausage, grits, and tofu, you will walk away full and happy. I spent some good time talking with one of the owners, Kevin. Nashville is lucky to have Vege-Licious Cafe!

What a find!

This is the kind of place I spend my life looking for. I travel a lot and it’s very rare to come across food this good, especially at this price. I had the hot chicken plate, yams, vegan mac, and roasted potatoes. Everything was delicious. After eating I met the owners and they were very nice, caring people who take pride in their business. I’ll be back anytime I’m in Nashville.

Pros: Great menu, Wonderful service , Cute atmosphere

OMG! So worth it to go find this quaint, out of the way, gem

Absolutely delicious soul food, and so much choice! We had the fried chicken burger and home fries. It was so satisfying. The cheesecake we had for dessert was also perfect. Highly recommended.

Pros: Lots of options, including a brunch menu.

Cons: A little out off the way, but so worth it!

Absolutely delicious, somewhat out of the way restaurant and well worth the trip

This restaurant is well worth the trip off the beaten path to find a wonderfully flavorful meal. There are vegan soul food options. This is one of the best southern vegan meals I have had in 2 years of enjoying vegan eating.

Pros: Fully vegan

Cute place. I grabbed take out for my wife and I.

She got the blt poboy, she like it, a bit sweeter than she expected and fairly messy, in the end not her personal favorite. Good size servings. I snagged the hot chicken sandwich, not a lot of spice, but otherwise loved it. The hike fries needed a bit of seasoning.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Well priced.

Cons: The layout/order for picking up Togo food was odd

Great southern food

We really miss good southern cooking like fried chicken being vegan, and this place definitely hit the spot! I got the regular chick’n plate while my husband got the Nashville hot. Both were great. My 4 year old got the bbq tofu and loved it (and he’s super picky about his precious tofu!). The inside seating area is small, but there are plenty of picnic tables under a tent outside. Everyone working there was super friendly and welcoming. This will definitely be a regular stop for us on our annual trip south to the beach!

Pros: Large portions , Friendly , Relaxed
