Simply wonderful

This little gem is located just a short walk from Canal street. It is a clean, nice and super friendly place with a number of vegan dishes on the menu. Fresh and tasty this is really a great, fairly inexpensive place. Staff superfriendly and serviceminded, and will total insight to what is/can be made vegan. The place is also fairly quiet which means it allows for conversation without shouting

Pros: Many vegan options, Taste, Friendly Staff

Cons: Busy traffic outside, Vegan sushi is not listed as vegan

Vegetable tofu

The vegan options are not labeled, so we asked the waitress, she had to think for a moment but then showed us everything on the menu that's vegan. She was very friendly. We had the cucumber, avocado and vegetable roll as well as the tofu stick, which actually wasn't a stick but 6 pieces of tofu on a plate. Everything was good in taste and served on actual plates and not take-away containers.

Pros: Very friendly service, Centrally located

Cons: Not that many vegan options

It was open, and had vegan food

As others mentioned, the vegetarian choices here are meager. I had the avocado roll, asparagus roll, and vegetable roll—that is all I found on the menu that was vegetarian and not fried in the same oil as the fish, and I made it clear to the server not to use the non-vegan sauce. What I had was fine, the price was reasonable, and I was thankful to find a place near my hotel that was open and offered something that I could eat.

They have vegan options, they don’t really know what vegan means though

We had a good dinner there. Nothing outside the box, the waitress was nice , the food was ok, the vegetable roll ( asparagus cucumber avocado ) was a good choice and their ice green tea was refreshing ( and happy since it was served without sugar)
Note : All fried food is mixed with other non vegan stuff, so for purists, be aware.
From the waitress, no desert was vegan (she seemed hesitant ) even the mochi ice cream wasn’t an option for us..

Pretty good

Tofu vegetables were good. My girlfriend had avocado salad and enjoyed it. Mochi ice cream was good but I don't know if it's vegan. Not expensive. Wasn't busy (5-6pm on a Monday)

Not bad, not great

I was under the impression that there would be more vegan options on the basis of the reviews I read. However, there were only a few and the staff weren’t as clued up on vegan options as I thought. Nevertheless, the vegan sushi was tasty, as was the tofu and vegetable Teriyaki with rice.

Pros: Tasty, Good portion sizes

Cons: Limited options

Friendly, tasty & good value

Very friendly place with good service. Veggie options aren’t huge but offer a nice selection. Had the Tofu Steaks with vegetables and rice; all good.

Cozy, friendly and good!

Ate here twice during my stay in NOLA, first time I had the cucumber and avocado sushi rolls, which was fine, but basically what you expect from a roll. The neat and surprising thing was the fried tofu; try that!
Staff was super friendly both times, informing me of vegan options and one of them even recommended a couple of other restaurants nearby with vegan options.

Something for Everyone !

Wide selection of menu choices, including many vegetarian and vegan selections made it difficult to choose. Decided on the tofu steak to get some protein, had veggies, good salad. Drinks were good, they had lots of beers and wine too. Reasonably priced with generous portions probably because it is near the edge of the French Quarter. Good choice for large groups with diverse food preferences. Good service, quick food delivery. Look forward to a repeat visit on my next visit to NOLA.

Pros: Large menu, lots of options, Popular family spot, Full bar-- it is New Orleans!

Cons: atmosphere noisy, busy

Great experience!

We went to Geishas, and had a great meal. There are quite a few options for vegetarians, we had sushi, fried tofu, salat, dumplings and tempura. All of this was very good, and service was effective and pleasant.
