What an amazing little place. The young woman who waited on us was very knowledgeable. Our luck had it that they had just gotten gluten-free beignets in that day. It looked more like a doughnut, but tasted amazing. We were also able to get the chicken Poboy with potatoes, all gluten-free.

Fantastic vegan menu with tons of options including gluten free meals. The vegan food was filling and freshly prepared. We ordered the red beans and rice, crab cakes, the crab poboy, and the beignets and loved it all. The crab cakes especially were divine and packed with flavor and the beignets dipped in coffee were otherworldly delicious.

Beignets were AMAZING. Needed this vegan food in the sea of meat& seafood of New Orleans!!! Crab cake sandwich was good!! The server suggested the sausage po boy if you like spicy!! So I’ll have to get that next time!! Thank you!!!

Soul Food Read Time 1-3mins Let me preface this by saying I have been here multiple times. Let’s start from the beginning. On a tourist journey, I stumbled upon this cafe and fell in love. It was engagement at first sight of the menu. I was first lured in by the name and was sold on the list of offerings shared on the menu. The menu was complex, yet simple in my opinion. What made it complex? The different options of crafted cuisine varying from non-vegan to vegan. This cafe blends New Orleans traditional staples with vegan variations. How intriguing right? I opted for the vegan crab cake with the Remoulade sauce and it has now become my go-to. Just to name a few, there are other things like beignets and po-boys that are delicious. This cafe truly cooks from the heart and soul. Please gi

I was so excited to find New Orleans food that was vegan! I ordered the vegan Po Boy & it was amazing. My husband ordered the regular one & also loved his. We actually had to go up & ask which one was vegan since they both looked so similar. We got vegan beignets that were life changing. I wish we lived closer so I could eat here all the time!
