Delicious comfort food - Edit
The chorizo burrito was delicious! Worth the stop if you’re traveling through Chattanooga. Get the chili mac side!

Delicious wholesome food - Edit
My partner and I had to go again the next day after trying their food for the first time. Their burrito bowls are incredibly wholesome, colorful, and delicious! I highly recommend the buffalo bowl with dill ranch dressing and their burrito bowl with sriracha aioli.

Vegan Comfort Food Done Right - Edit
Cashew was such a great find and definitely a place I’m already looking forward to visiting again. We tried the meatballs served over kale and I honestly wasn’t sure about that combination at first, but it completely worked. The kale ended up being one of my favorite parts of the meal. It was perfectly seasoned, bright, and zesty, and paired really well with the meatballs.
Read moreWe also enjoyed the chili mac side, and my partner ordered the veggie plate with mac and cheese, chili, and a garden salad. The mac and cheese was especially impressive and definitely worth ordering.
One of the best parts was seeing the huge selection of vegan desserts. Everything looked amazing and made it difficult to choose. This spot has so many comforting, flavorful options and I already can’t wait to come back and try more.

Favorite Chattanooga restaurant - Edit
This is hands down the best vegan restaurant I’ve been to in TN. We travel over 2 hours to come eat here. My favorite is the chicken salad wrap. I dream about it!

Great food, cozy - Edit
Best vegan food at a fully vegan restaurant in Chattanooga. I had the Philly cheesesteak made with seitan and cashew cheese. It was delicious, definitely coming back to try the rest of the menu. I also had a carrot cupcake and while their baked goods were a little pricey they were also very good

The food is awful - Edit
As a truck driver i travel far distances and grab food on the way to where im going. I normally order several things so i can eat vegan wherever i go and dont have to stop at a gas station so i csn find potato chips they drench in milk… i ordered almost $100 worth of food and tipped for curbside pickup. Not only were they not accommodating because my truck could not fit in their parking lot so i had to park somewhere i wasnt supposed to and walk around to the back to grab my food (where their restaurant is located). I went through a lot of trouble to get there only to later find out it wasnt worth it…
Read moreTHE FOOD WAS SORRY! No seasoning! No taste! No thought.
I ordered a cheesesteak and basically got a turkey sandwich with a dash of onion and pepper. The hoagie wasnt together so it was not enjoyable at all.
Got a garlicky kale and meatballs i can say that if that one had a bit more flavor then the tomato paste out of s can and their house made whipped cashew sauce itd be really good. It seems like they made the balls out of walnuts which was clever but had no salt which helps bring out that meatball flavor.
I got mac n cheese with chorizo. I Will admit They have anything cheesy down packed. That probably would’ve been one of the best mac & cheese with chorizo, but still did not have salt or any other type of seasoning other than the chorizo and the chorizo by itself was bland which I’ve never even thought could happen because the process to make chorizo is it and lots of seasonings and room and, I doubt that they did that just came from the package.
Lastly, I got the jackfruit nachos, which would’ve been good but the barbecue from the jackfruit overpowered the full dish and the cashew cheese it. Nachos or something you have to eat right then and there and it was just too sweet for me.
Speaking of sweets, I purchased some bakery items as well. I’m very happy to see that they have gluten-free options. I am happy with their Baker for sure. I would just ask that they reduce the amount of sugar that they put in these sweets… It’s a little much But I guess its Each its own.
I even ordered two different drinks and asked for agave and they came out bland as well. No flavor, agave was missing.
Overall experience
4/10
They need more flavor. I will not be returning Even if they’re the only restaurant that’s open out here I will be going to a spot with vegan options instead.
Pros: Baked goods, Diet restrictions for High Blood Pressure friendly, Plane Jane food
Cons: No flavor, Bland food, Hard to access Resturant, Parking spaceS

Chorizo Burrito! - Edit
What a relief to see a menu and feel confident that I can choose anything. Great selection and reasonable prices. The Chorizo Burrito was filled with savory chorizo and lots of comfort. Wish I lived here.

Totally vegan - Edit
It was my first time there. I ordered their bestseller, the Jackfruit BBQ Nachos. They were really good, though for my taste they had a bit too much sauce.

Okay - Edit
Good selection of food but the food we got was cold and so so. Out of a few of their things. Nachos were more chip than jackfruit and cold. Mac was not warm and so so.

Many menu options were unavailable - Edit
We unfortunately had a bizarre experience here, which is disappointing to say since most reviews are positive. The most bizarre thing was that we ordered beer but the waitress explained that they don’t have their beer license yet, therefore none was being served. However, the physical menus are obviously not new and are quite used, so that didn’t make sense to us. Second thing that was strange was that many menu items were unavailable and sold out. It’s understandable if one or a couple items are sold out, but not a list of things, like half of the menu, and unfortunately things I wanted to order. However, the desserts and pastries were definitely not sold out. Our waitress said she thought we already knew but no one told us.
Read moreThere are pros that we liked such as allergens being listed next to each menu item on top of the restaurant being fully vegan. I got a dish I didn’t want but had to get whatever was available, and it was still tasty.
The experience would be better if they actually served everything on the menu and if the management actually worked on professionalism.
Pros: Tasty food, Lots of pastry and dessert options, Reasonable prices
Cons: Not all menu options available, Unskilled employees and management

Went with a dish that was out of the ordinary for me, I ordered the meatball bowl (meatballs were made of mushrooms, walnuts and quinoa) nice consistency the marinara was perfect and the garlicky kale was outstanding. I also had a cup of broccoli cheese soup which was pureed and very good. Chattanooga has some great vegan restaurants!

Diverse options, all vegan! - Edit
No offense to TN, but healthy, green, veg forward vegan options have not been as abundant during our visit. Cashew changed that! They offer beautiful veg forward options across diverse cuisines. We had salads, a beet burger and Thai sweet potato, plus excellent sweet treats. Would highly recommend, and is in a great location next to cool shopping.

No Complaints - Edit
My partner and I visited Chattanooga for a birthday trip, and had to make sure we supported 100% vegan options. We had the vegan nachos (no jackfruit), the buffalo bowl, and the chicken salad wrap with a side of Mac & Cheese. The nachos were great! I opted for no jackfruit because I’m not a fan. Their “chili” is mainly beans, but that’s better, in my opinion. The “cheese” was creamy and delicious. The tofu and ranch in the buffalo bowl was amazing, along with the garlicky kale. The “chicken salad” wrap completely blew me away. I have no idea how they managed the texture, and the pairings with their “honey” mustard and fresh pickles was just perfection. The Mac & Cheese was a little overly “NOOCH-Y”, but I found myself scraping the bottom of the bowl by the end. Only complaint was no beer selection because they were in process of renewing their license. Overall I’d definitely return!

Outstanding! - Edit
It’s so refreshing to find a restaurant that is entirely plant-based vegan! 🤩 The menu is quite varied and has a ton of options! I had the Beet Burger with the Side Salad, and a S’mores cupcake. Hubs had the Burrito Bowl and a Black Bean/Avocado Brownie. Everything we had was absolutely delicious! The baked goods section was unbelievable, and it was so hard to chose which ones to get! I wanted one of each! 😀 The staff was friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this place!
