service - Edit
I had never been to an all vegan restaurant therefore, I was psyched about coming to this place! Upon arrival they told me "your order will take a little longer than normal." They should have said "it will be 1 hour and 10min till your order is ready."

BUT, the food is awesome!!!! I will be going back. And, will call in my order an hour before hand.
Pros: all vegan!!! #awesome

Quick and delicious - Edit
This is our go to spot (half way point) when traveling from Atlanta to Ft Lauderdale. We have been here several times and every time the food has been delicious. All but once or twice the service was great as well! They also have snacks and desserts which I love to take on the road with me. Best carrot cake I’ve had (frosting isn’t overly sweet).

Delicious! - Edit
100% vegan! It's a small place, but the food is delicious and they have a good variety.
Read moreI ate there before the ownership changed (late summer 2017), so I can't speak to how the food and service is now. I hope it continues to be as good as it always was!
Pros: 100% vegan!, Delicious food, Very nice owner
Cons: Smaller place

awesome vegan find - Edit
Found this place thanks to the happy cow app. Were heading north to georgia on i75 and this was right next to the gainesville exit. Delicious food. We commented about the delicious food all through the rest of trip. And we snacked on some awesome vegan jerky and vegan m&ms. Highly recommend.

best vegan ever - Edit
Found this gem on Happy Cow. This is the best vegan food ever. The owner / chef even worked with me on preparing dishes with no oil. The broccoli cheese soup was so flavorful and creamy it was hard to believe it wasn't loaded with dairy. So good. Thank you Chef!

Great quick food option - Edit
Nice small vegan restaurant in Gainesville. Not familiar with the area but this is very close to the highway and hotels. I wish they would include GF designation on the menu for gluten free options but at least the cook could confirm if the meals are GF.
Read morePros: Great Asian inspired vegan dishes.
Cons: no Gluten free designation on menu.

Quick, delicious, incredible vegan food. - Edit
I travel extensively for work and as such it's always a gamble finding delicious vegan food on the go. THIS place, let me tell you, is a game changer, especially in Florida!! I've only been here once so far and plan to go back several times this week. I tried one of the combos with noodles - SO GOOD!! Plus, the staff here are exceptionally friendly and welcoming to newbies like myself and veterans alike. You also have to try the carrot cake. Really, just try it.

cool little spot! - Edit
Stopped by for a quick lunch, this is a nice little vegan spot that offers a little bit of everything, we had a wonton noodle soup and a veggie Sub, they were pretty good. They alphabet several tables inside and out, also some snacks and dessert options, a place where you can find some healthy stuffs quicks, and still affordable. The boss and the staff are very nice people, one full of energy another calm and peaceful. Loved it!

Reliably Delicious Vegan Cuisine - Edit
This is a small, casual dine-in or carry-out. We are only in Gainesville a few weeks each year and it is good to know Vegan2go is here. A wide variety of sandwiches, salads, soups, and appetizers. So glad they recently put a couple of tables outside.
Read morePros: all vegan, open every day, wide range of vegan desserts

love this place! - Edit
I've been eating here for the past 4 years. About a year and a half ago, it went under new ownership and the food became much much better. It's easily one of my favorite vegan spots. They have delicious raw desserts, too! Many soy free options as well, which is appreciated for soy free vegans like myself. The people that work here are extremely friendly, too. Definitely check it out!

Good Vegan Food - Edit
Great spot when you need some yummy vegan food.
Read moreToday I enjoyed Pho (Friday only) and fresh Summer Rolls. Both were yummy and hit the spot. I had to ask for extra peanut sauce but this was not a problem. Chopsticks were also available by request.
Service was fast, and food was fresh.
I spent $15 for a meal for one.
Pros: Vegan, meat-free kitchen, Personal
Cons: Awkward road and parking

Overpriced not so tasty or healthy vegan food” - Edit
We were on our way to Orlando and stopped in here for a healthy bite to eat but were sorely disappointed This is basically a hole in the wall place which touts healthy food. Yet not much was even organic! The guy at the front was not very friendly. The food took way too long for a "2 go" place. The place is dirty and old looking. I saw them serve others in plastic plates and bowls. The food was not very tasty, neither was there enough quantity. I bought a vegan shrimp dish which was 10.95 and they gave me 5 measly pieces of fried vegan shrimp with a very small raw cabbage salad. My husband got a quinoa salad - which was 9.95 and it was basically a small tub (like a side dish) and it was not at all flavorful. My friend got a curry and rice and his dish was okay - nothing to write home about. I was left hungry with my pockets a little emptier with no great story to tell. Sadly disappointed in this vegan place. Would never go back.

Vegan2Go Is EXCELLENT! - Edit
Excellent little restaurant with excellent food! We were very happy to find it - we are strict Vegans and the food is among the best we've had. We were very happy with the food choices, and ended up ordering even more food to go! We now have a great place to stop in Gainesville, FL. Owner very nice and so is the staff.

My Favorite Vegan Restaurant! - Edit
Absolutely love Vegan2Go! The food is incredible and the owners are wonderful. The owners are 100% vegan and all the food is 100% vegan. If you are a student you get a 10% discount!! This discount helps me a lot because I eat at Vegan2Go several times a week. Also, check out their weekly meal plans. Raw and cooked vegan weekly meal packages are offered for those who can't always cook. The packages contain a weeks worth of vegan mains, sides, soups, and some desserts!
Read moreI've tried almost everything on the menu and have never been disappointed. Highlights: Summer Rolls (served w/ yummy peanut dipping sauce), Philly Sub (bbq TVP on a tasty fresh baked vegan baguette), Specialty Curry Rice (brown rice option makes this dish superb), Heavenly Salad (it is really heavenly), and the best ever RAW cashew cheesecake!
Vegan2Go serves the best food in Gainesville.

I would highly suggest giving his food another shot. Michael and his staff are absolutely wonderful and the food is delicious. It is in by no means "bland". I love the changes he has made and his soup of the day is always fantastic. The Potato Leek is to die for. He has made some changes but imo they are all positive. He has added new items, his mock chicken salad is excellent and the Philly Cheese Sub is out of this world. Don't even get me started on the desserts he is now offering. I could go on for days how delicious the cupcakes are.

I ordered delivery from this place for my birthday dinner. The drumsticks were super delicious. I also had the curry and rice, raw cheesecake, and green smoothie. I remember thinking that the cheesecake didn't compare to my favourite (from Aux Vivres in Montreal) but it was still pretty good.

Fabulous Pho - Edit
I love that vegan2go is 100% vegan. I am not a big fan of faux meat foods and there are a few of these in the menu. However, if you go on Friday, treat yourself to the pho because it is fabulous. The summer rolls are fantastic as well. The cheese cakes and other desserts are top notch. Getting to the building from the east involves a left hand u- turn which can be tricky in G'ville traffic. Parking is very limited but for eating in I have never had a problem. Most people get take out.

Vegan2Go - Edit
A well-organized tiny facility that caters delicious, fresh vegan food options. The pleasant and hospitable owner, David, will cater to gluten and soy free clients. He offers weekly menus for delivery with three day menus or one day menus available. The facility is clean, with a few tables for sitting and ordering. The main problem is the parking and the difficulty in entering and exiting the parking lot. Otherwise, Vegan2Go in Gainesville, Florida is a 4 star place. Kaye Linden

Good vegan food to go - Edit
