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.
Read moreThe place is super nice and cozy, the service is excellent, and everything is very fast. The prices are also good. I would definitely recommend it.

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

Five star food - Edit
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!

SO good! - Edit
Stopped here on the way during a road trip, and loved it! I got the Buffalo rice bowl with Mac and cheese as a side, and my boyfriend got the Philly! The food was delicious and the vibes were immaculate. Also loved that they have a small fridge/pantry section—I was able to grab a block of Rebel Cheese, one of my favorites! Will definitely go again when in the area 🖤

Delicious! - Edit
Very flavorful and filling meal - the vegan poke bowl. Had to try the carrot cupcake with “cream cheese” icing, which tastes better than the real thing since it is plant-based! I’ve had better vegan Mac and cheese but I’m still grateful to have this as an option.

Delicious options - Edit
Cashew has some great variety. If I’m looking for something healthy, they have good options like salads, beet burgers, sweet potatoes, “meat”balls over kale, and seitan proteins. For when I want to indulge, they have nachos, Crunchwraps, tater tots, and amazing cupcakes. I bought me daughters birthday cake from here and it was delicious. There is also a kids menu.

Best meal we had in Chattanooga - Edit
Ok, if I lived closer I would be in trouble because the BBQ jackfruit nachos are addictive. I think I could eat them every day. Everything else we had was great too, including the desserts. And our server couldn't have been nicer. Just a great place all-around.

Great food and location! - Edit
Nestled in the plaza across from Coolidge park. Only entrance through the back right below, AVA. I had their beet burger and my brother had the nachos. Both delicious. My only wish is that the burger come with a choice of different sides other than the chips (which came with no cashew cheese) and no additional charge.

Never a fail - Edit
Stopped here multiple times. On my way to or from on a trip through the area and this place has consistently delivered with flavor. Metered parking available in the lot. Busy area parking can be difficult to find. Very friendly staff. Plenty of dessert options, so make sure you leave room. This trip around we had a buffalo bowl which is a good portion, size and delicious. I also had the chorizo burrito, which was smaller than I thought it was going to be but tasty and filling. We always get dessert. This time we had a doughnut and a cupcake. I donut was better in my opinion for both were finished within five minutes. Will continue to come back here. Solid choice for vegan food.

Back in the area again. Could not/would not pass this place up. Had their Buffalo bowl. Nice portion size. Yes I know it’s Buffalo but I was hoping it wouldn’t have packed that much of a kick. It was still good. Their kale garlicky salad was delicious (it comes with absolutely nothing else - no croutons or other veggies). Their grilled chicken salad wrap had good flavor - even the next morning. I also had a donut and a brownie which started something dangerous for me because they are addicting.

Great Vegan Restaurant! - Edit
As we walked in we were greeted by two very friendly employees. I had the Burrito Bowl & side of Mac-n-cheese, both very good! My husband had the Chorizo Burrito & side of Chorizo Mac-n-cheese, he loved it. It was pretty spicy, but he loved spicy food. I also got a Peanut Butter Chocolate Cupcake to go, which was good too!
