Great flavors though limited

The vegan options here were very flavorful. Would add another star if they had more options.

Delicious sides

Cafeteria style cafe serving southern food. Only vegan options on our visit were sides, but what they did have was delicious. Except for the peanut butter cookies, those were rock hard. Collard greens, black eye pea salad and a beet apple salad. Kids had French fries and rice and beans-all delicious.

Pros: Flavorful

Cons: No main courses, Too crunchy cookies

Excellent main dish tofu bowl

I was pleasantly surprised to get a delicious, satisfying tofu bowl with sweet potato and a fresh salad. Other reviews led me to believe there would only be vegan side dishes, so I suspect it's a newer offering.

Highly recommended

Friends told us to eat there and I was a little skeptical since those friends aren't vegs. We were pleasantly surprised by both the options and how good it is. Worth a visit!

So much to try!

There are a variety of options to try from 3 different areas/cuisines. All are side dishes, but they are clearly marked, gluten free, fresh ingredients, and delicious. We found enough for a very filling meal for 2. The choices available may differ from what's written in the online menu.

Abundant side dishes

While none of the entrees are vegan, you can put together a meal of side dishes. Options include: sweet potato, black eyed pea salad, beet salad, collared greens, rice, French fries, house salad, root vegetables, and cabbage and carrots.
