Maybe because I ordered takeout?? - Edit
We were a bit disappointed with our orders from The Wild Cow, as the reviews are all top-notch and the place was busy.
Read moreWe ordered the French Quarter Dip. It was supposed to be with grilled onions and mushrooms, Cheddar cheeze, and seitan. It was only seitan and a few slices of mushroom…no onions or cheeze.
We also got the Reuben, which was very good but the side I choose was Garlicky Kale. The kale was so tough, very wet and watery, and there was nothing Garlicky about it.
Pros: All vegan
Cons: Expensive, Orders wrong/not what was expected , Long wait

Such a great experience! - Edit
We got to sit on the patio and were given a very friendly waiter. The gypsy cider was awesome, as well as their Buffalo Grinder sandwich and side of sweet potatoes. We will definitely be regulars.

I loved this place - such a cool and cozy atmosphere with a very friendly staff. The food is amazing too. My partner and I shared the Beans and Greens dish, Ruben Sandwich with pastrami and the house side salad with ginger miso dressing. It was all spectacular. Even the drip coffee is good. I highly recommend giving this place a try if you are in Nashville.

Pastrami sandwich was good! - Edit
Was very skeptical to order a pastrami rueben that was plant based but I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. Paired it with the chickpea curry salad and was definitely full after.

I got the Buffalo beans and greens. This dinner was one of the best I can remember. I really didn’t know what to expect but I highly recommend.
Read moreThe flavors were perfect together- and I feel full bit very comfortable still.
We came here on a cross country road trip... I’m considering changing tomorrow’s plans to come back before we leave town.
My fiancé got the rueben- says it’s one of the best sandwiches he’s had too!
Pros: Cool atmosphere , Great food , Local provider for deli selections/ vegan cheese

LOVE - Edit
The Wild Cow was the first and last place I ate when I was going to school in Nashville. Their new location is so cute and the food is so good. The sandwiches all come with a side which is great. If you're looking for a nice sit-down vegan meal this is the place to go in Nashville! I also got my graduation cake from their baker and I can't recommend them enough! It was very well priced for a vegan cake, not to mention large and well decorated!
Read morePros: Excellent food , Nice vibe, Friendly staff

Just OK - Edit
Was expecting a little more from this place, but overall the food was just OK. Had a lentil bowl & chips queso. Thought there would be more options. Didn’t stay for dessert but they seemed worth a try.

Pretty Good - Edit
Lucked out to be staying at a place 3 blocks away from here. Everything I ordered was pretty tasty! Loved that you could choose your protein options on a lot of the stuff. Wish my side salad was way bigger cause it was gooooood! Takeout only, but it was a nice day and they had a few spots on the patio
Read morePros: GREAT SALAD

Great food and heated patio - Edit
The food was excellent and the service prompt. They have a heated patio and contactless service so I was able to order ahead and then still dine outdoors in the winter - it almost felt like covid wasn't real while still being really safe - best of both worlds. I had a mushroom seitan provolone sub that was excellent and the Boston cream pie that was pretty good.

24 hours in Nashville and the vegan options are not disappointing! Really enjoyed the FILLING dinner from The Wild Cow. Hopefully next time we’ll be able to check out the restaurant - not just the take out.

Best Buffalo Tempeh - Edit
The food here was sooo good even my meat eating boyfriend loved it. We had the sweet potato tacos, bbq tempeh bowl, and Reuben. Sides were also delicious - lentil stew and chickpea salad. We will definitely come back here whenever we are in Nashville!

Will eat here again!

Okay - Edit
I love that The Wild Cow offers all vegan options in a city that doesn't have a ton of exciting vegan things to try. However, I was very underwhelmed by the food. I ordered the nachos and the patty melt sandwich with a side of pinto beans. The nachos were okay, but nothing to write home about. The sandwich tasted off to me, I'm not sure what flavorings they used but they just didn't seem to go well together, and I wasn't a huge fan of the texture either. The pinto beans were not good at all to me.

The vegan BLT was so good I almost ordered another one to go. Sweet potato side was a much needed bit of comfort food. The nachos were addictive. Get their juice for sure. I will be back to try the bar and desserts for sure!
