    As much as I wanted to offer you 5 stars solely because of the many vegan options and my appreciation for small business, I couldn’t due to a few reasons. Firstly, I felt unwelcome when I came in with a friend and got glared at by the employees. Secondly, the spicy vegan I received was slightly undercooked/(cold in the middle) despite having waited nearly 30 mins for my order which is usually not an issue when the food is good. The price wasn’t worth my overall disappointment. The cake they offered was dry but packed with flavor, if it weren’t for the lack of moisture I would have loved it. I do pray you consider my opinions the next time travelers walk through your door. Blessings.

    Food is good. Its a solid choice. Not the most exclusive, but solid. It’s probably best for you to go inside than to order online or get it delivered. Also, the Friday squash lasagna is the best entrée there! It tastes like it should be its own "thing". As in, you would probably make something like that even if you were not vegan. Everything seems made proper. No beyond or caveman raw plant vegan nonsense. They do use gardein on some of their menu items, but that's the 'better' commercial vegan brand. .. Id recommend for anyone looking for a casual restaurant they can go to often. ~also check out the postcards inside the restaurant

    The food is here is good and fresh. It’s different choices everyday which is prefect. The business can use a better drink selection and food price is kind of high. The parking is easy and free which is behind the building. The service is below average because once you walk-in it’s a dry greeting smh. If this is my business every customer will feel the energy and feel welcome. Especially since the pandemic effect many food business, I will be dancing once customers come to my place of business lol. Just saying. The food is good it just need better service.

    I finally tried the food here. I struggled finding parking because there is very little in the front and spaces behind the store awkward. Had to walk in the rain from the next block. After all of that I can say it was worth it. I had the Buffalo cauliflower and the special of the day. The special was Jamaican lasagna and my one side was mashed sweet potatoes. I enjoyed each immensely. I really appreciated being able to sample the food before eating. The next time I go I have vegan shrimp and bacon burger everyone raves about. There definitely will be a next time. Sorry, my picture of the daily menu was blurry.

    I'm not vegan but I like to try new things and am interested in eating meat alternatives. This was my first time visiting and was immediately greeted with a warm welcome from the lady working the register. They had many items to choose from but I ended up starting with the Smokehouse Burger and fries. I wasnt expecting much but omg..this vegan burger was delicious and flavorful. I couldn't tell it wasnt meat. Burger and fries were cooked to order so they came out hot and fresh. I tried but couldn't finish the entire burger and fries. They also had some very tempting desserts as well. Dining inside is limited...only two bar height tables to sit and eat at. But customer service was excellent. The lady working the register was very cheerful and inviting...making each customer feel appreciated. Another plus their health score was 100%. Impressive. I definitely will be back to try the other items on the menu.

    Excellent and very fresh vegan food. The sausage casserole was very good and the mac & cheese was very delicious. Service was excellent and I appreciate having a chance to sample the food before placing my order.

    This place was wonderful. We just finished eating here and are already excited to come back and try something different. Besides the food being tasty to heck the staff made the experience that much sweeter. I recommend this to everyone not just vegans. Also the ginger teas were a tart treat to wash the food down!

    Amazing!!!! The staff was friendly and the food was out if this world. I got the rice bowl which didnt disappoint. The flavors were amazing, the rice was perfect, and the veggies were delicious!!! After trying a sample I took home some chickpea curry after my nonvegan husband even complimented. Couldnt pass up getting some if the mac and cheese to take to my daughter. After eyeing the desserts I purchased a strawberry banana pudding... it was delicious and very rich. Next time I find myself on this side of atlanta i will definitely be back. ... may make the 2hr trip just for lunch... it's honestly that good!!! ♡♡♡

    SO first off , i've been watching this place on IG for about a week. I decided to take my chances on a FRIDAY. i Took a lunch break, drove to the spot, and was greeted with excitement. I sampled a couple of sides and they were flavorful. I ordered the CARIBEAN LASAGNA and KALE W/SPINACH. YES! They were on point. For the dessert i got the Vegan Sweet Potato Pound Cake! YES! HUNTY! IT danced in my MOUTH. Next visit i will try the BURGERS. I will be back.

    Always Friendly and informative staff. I'm not vegan but I wanted to give it a try. They allowed me to taste a sample of the dishes and took time to explain what was in each dish as well as customers favorites. I wish I could eat here Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.

    All vegan, plant based, and yummy! Super nice lady had my food ready in a jiffy. Fried chik'n with gravy over potato chunks. Outstanding! Wonderful aroma upon opening the box, with a knockout taste to match. Spinach, fresh and green. Wonderful lunch break!

    I have been coming here for years. The food is usually worth the visit. Today, I order a Mac Attack and Smokehouse BBQ Burgers and requested to have deconstructed as usual. There is now a policy in place that prevented me from having the request honored (due to competition…whatever that means). I was denied an extra bun and even having the SAUCE on the side. I explained that this causes the bun to be useless upon arrival. Being that this is a restaurant that only serves food to-go, it seems that it would be more accommodating. I am sitting here with $30 worth of food that looks like garbage. A burger with only top buns. It’s not like the ingredients are a secret. It can be recreated anywhere. Who is the competition? I am very disappointed.

    I got the Mac and cheese and buffalo cauliflower wings which were delicious! I went back two days later and got the shrimp. It was a little pricey for only 5 shrimp pieces ($13.99). But they were extremely tasty!!! I would definitely go back and try something new.

    I wish I had pictures to share, but we ate it all so fast that we forgot to take pics. We moved here from Colorado and this place is far better than our favorite vegan places in Denver. It's our new favorite vegan place. I can't wait to go back 😍

  • 5/5 Kristi C. 3 years ago on Google
    I love love love the food here. The customer service is nice and friendly as well. You don’t have to wait long for a delicious vegan burger or cauliflower lemon pepper wings!

  • 5/5 Nyeshia W. 3 years ago on Google
    I had the fish & fries, along with a side of cabbage. The food was so good that I don't even think I paused to let it digest. Lol

  • 5/5 Brittany P. 3 years ago on Google
    LOVE LOVE LOVE their cauliflower wings! Perfect texture and seasoned well. Veggies always look fresh and hubby loves them. Definitely a must try when in the area.

  • 3/5 Josira O. 2 years ago on Google
    Pretty pricy, food was good but not worth the price.. I purchased Bacon shrimp burger with sweet potato fries for about 23 dollars Better off just getting the fries it comes with and then ordering sweet potato fries you’ll get more for your money!

  • 4/5 bullet p. 4 years ago on Google
    The food was so good. The wait was very long to get our food once we ordered.

  • 5/5 Rashida P. 2 years ago on Google
    This food was delicious!!! The burgers my family had were some of the best vegan burgers we've ever had. The service was slow but it's well worth the wait. We wi definitely be back.

  • 4/5 Adrienne W. 3 years ago on Google
    1st time visiting this restaurant and the customer service was amazing!. The lady behind the counter explained everything. I tried the lemon pepper wings and smokehouse burger. The lemon pepper wings were amazing and the smokehouse burger flavors were good but it had a little too much sauce on it

  • 4/5 Shekina P. 3 years ago on Google
    Very good service and flavorful however they can easy up on the salt on the fries

  • 5/5 Trevor H. 3 years ago on Google
    This place is great and the staff members are SO sweet. Those Cauliflower wings are some of the best I've ever had. They'd be great for a "Chicken n Waffles" !

  • 5/5 Lisa M. 2 years ago on Google
    My first time at this Vegan restaurant. The burgers are amazing, and their fries are coated in a delicious seasoning. Their customer service is awesome. I'll definitely return.

  • 4/5 Tammy J. 10 months ago on Google
    The mac and cheese is amazing. The vegan wings weren't exactly something I'd order again even liked. I don't think its because it was badly prepared I just don't think I the vegan wing has been greatly capturing my taste buds yet from anywhere so far. Although the vegan shrimp and mac and cheese are definitely something I'd order over and over again.

  • 5/5 Tierra&Ira O. 3 years ago on Google
    Great choice for plant based eating. Owner really cares about his customers, restaurant, safety and quality of the food. Consistency is key when eating out these days and they got it!!!! 😁🙌

  • 3/5 Kayla W. 3 years ago on Google
    My first visit a few weeks ago was very pleasant. The employees were great and welcoming, and made sure to explain menu options to first timers. I built my own burger with cheese, lettuce, and onions. It was wonderful, I couldn’t wait to return for more. My second visit a few days ago however, was disappointing. The employees were still welcoming, things went as they did before. I ordered the exact same thing, only to return home and see a hamburger bun with nothing but cheese and lettuce. That’s it. No burger patty, no onions. A complete let down.

  • 5/5 The Answer Game P. 3 years ago on Google
    This is Business is Top Notch! I went for the first time and they treated me like Royalty. The Servers made sure I was knowledgeable about everything: entrees, ingredients, etc. By recommendation, I ordered the Smokehouse BBQ Burger and Fries. It was on Point! And to add, I didn't need to take a nap after I ate it! Huge Plus! I will be a regular!

  • 5/5 LaSheena L. 3 years ago on Google
    The food here is delicious!!! I had a Southwest BBQ burger (don't quote me on the name, lol) and my Mother had the shrimp basket. My Mother and I absolutely loved it; the beverages were great too! We are on our way to veganism and this restaurant is going to help us get there. We will be back!

  • 5/5 Aysha 3 years ago on Google
    OMG!!!!! When I say this place is THEE BOMB... I am not lying! They were all so nice and polite! The food is so seasoned and GOOD I mean I am newly pescatarian and crave hamburgers and with Green Soma Vegans burgers I didn’t miss anything. It tasted SO good! I wish there was a Green Soma everywhere like McDonald’s 😭 sad I don’t live in ATL but this place is a MUST! Everything there is so delicious and wow there Apple Caramel vegan cake is to die for. Do yourself a favor and check them out!

  • 5/5 Shantivia D. 3 years ago on Google
    I’ve been a customer since 2019 and everything I’ve had taste amazing! The customer service is a delight and the staff makes the experience personalized. My very favorite is the lemon pepper cauliflower wings. However, the burgers are great and variety of items on the hot bar.

  • 5/5 Janet G. 3 years ago on Google
    My only disappointment is that I waited so long to try Green Soma! Oddly enough, I found out about this restaurant through an ad on indeed. I finally had lunch here on my Birthday in August. The menu included vegan pepper steak, Mac and cheese, collards, mashed potatoes, and a mixed veggie stir fry. There was probably more than that, but that’s all I can remember off hand. Everything was delicious. I wasn’t a huge fan of the Mac and cheese- it tasted a little sweet to me, but my boyfriend LOVED it. The pepper steak was incredibly flavorful and so was the stir fry. I hope they put the pepper steak on the menu again soon! The staff was very friendly and welcoming. We told them it was our first time there and they were incredibly happy to explain everything and give small samples so we knew exactly what we wanted to order. I look forward to going back and trying some of the “favorite items” and I can’t wait to take my dad here. He’s not vegan, but I’m slowing winning him over by sharing really delicious vegan food with him and I know he will love Green Soma as much as I do!!

  • 4/5 Colette J. 3 years ago on Google
    Food is good. Bit of a wait for non hot bar items.

  • 4/5 Jalease T. 3 years ago on Google
    I went here a few weeks ago and the food was good. The only things I’d say about it are that the burgers are MASSIVE, but you definitely get your money’s worth because it was also a little pricey too. Personally it was too much for me but the flavor was there.

  • 5/5 Elijah M. 3 years ago on Google
