I came here on Friday evening (made a reservation), with 2 friends. The ambiance was great with the beautiful plants and art/mural. I got the local peach, lavender and hibiscus kombucha and a special cocktail they had for the evening (their take on a bees knees). Both were delicious and refreshing for a humid summer Friday night. For my entree, I got the Enmoladas and it was so YUMMY. I am just sad I got full and couldn't eat the entire dish. I'll definitely be back to try other things on the menu. Our server was a delight, personable and was able to provide recommendations based on dietary restrictions. Parking: there is a deck and they validate. :)

La Semilla located in Reynoldstown and serving up plant based Latin food. There is parking in a garage and the restaurant validates parking so make sure you bring your ticket inside.Reservations are recommended however you may be able to grab a seat at the bar on a slow night. I love the décor and aesthetics but I'm not a fan of the grade school chairs, they are very uncomfortable.I keep returning to this spot for the amazing dishes. I've tried almost everything on the menu so I was pretty excited when I came this week and was able to try a new dish. The fried mushrooms in a green mole sauce are FIRE, you receive this yummy mole and 5 lions main fried mushrooms for $17. It's under the appetizer menu but I could definitely enjoy this as a main entrée. SO GOOD!! I also had my favorite salsa in the city, Sikil Pak $7, I really want to bottle this up in a jar and eat it at least three times a week. It's the perfect balance of savory and spiciness. I ended up ordering the Cubano $17 for my entrée but was craving the crunch wrap but you can't go wrong with the Cubano. This was so much food I had to take the Cubano to go. No worries, heat this up in the air fryer and it's still so good, this is probably one of the few jackfruit dishes that I enjoy.Overall another great experience at this Latin restaurant.

La Semilla is a beautifully decorated, modern gem that's well worth a visit. I was able to get in without a reservation, which was a pleasant surprise. The ambiance is chic and welcoming, setting the tone for a great dining experience.I've been before and loved the food. This time I wanted to try the nachos, and they did not disappoint! They were loaded with tons of toppings and bursting with flavor. The waitress was also very helpful, making the experience even better. Whether you're a vegan or just in the mood for some delicious plant-based food, La Semilla is definitely worth checking out!

La Semilla was shockingly delicious! The chochoyotes had multiple uses of corn and was so tasty! I picked this place bc my friend is vegetarian, and I felt full and satisfied after this fantastic meal. The waitress was patient and made great suggestions. On a Saturday night, it was busy and loud, but I could still hear my friend without raising our voices. Will definitely come back!

I am not exaggerating when I say this was some of the best food I've ever had, and it's ENTIRELY plant-based. The ambiance when you walk in is bright and floral, with good vibes playing over their speakers. The staff is extremely friendly and will thoroughly explain the menu, while recommending some of their personal favorites. For the appetizer we had the queso blanco, which was made out of cashews and potatoes. Crazy thing is this may be the best queso I've ever had and it isn't even cheese. I also had vegetable mole wraps and those were also great. Everything that we tried is flavorful and you can't even tell that it's completely vegan. Lastly the drinks were top tier. I would definitely recommend this to anyone interested in Latin food in general. 10/10 experience.

We had an absolutely amazing experience at La Semilla!First of all, parking was easy and straightforward-- there's a retail parking deck behind the restaurant and they validate for 2 hours!We showed up on a Wednesday evening to see if it would be possible to get a table for 8- we didn't have a reservation, but the staff was incredibly helpful and we were able to be seated since it wasn't too busy. The inside of the restaurant is really beautifully decorated, with a nice ambiance. There was a dj station near our table playing fun music, but the volume was perfect and we could still easily have conversations at the table. We shared a few plates between the table-- the yucca fries, enmoladas, and fried mushrooms. The fries and the mushrooms were perfectly salted and crispy. For the entree, I chose the Crunchwrap, which was exceptional-- golden brown, flavorful, and perfectly spicy if you dipped it in the sauce provided! This might be one of my new favorite restaurants in Atlanta-- I can't wait to come back and try more from their menu!

For vegan it was really delicious. Nothing lacked in flavor or presentation. There's indoor and outdoor seating. Parking garage or street parking is available. Service while a bit slow was friendly.

La Semilla is redefining vegan cuisine with a bold fusion of Cuban and Mexican dishes, rooted in family recipes. From seitan asada tacos to bistec de palomilla made with Lion's Mane mushrooms, every bite paired perfectly with a glass of Rioja. Pero primero, I had to dive into the yuca con queso. Still cannot get over how they've made that vegan queso taste so incredibly cheesy! For those who doubt that plant-based meals can be indulgent, this spot offers a compelling argument.

A much hyped place, which deserved it. This is a vegan restaurant, billed as being Cuban though the dishes seem broadly Latin American to me. I purposefully did not eat much before coming so I could indulge, and thus when I was recommended to try a dish I'd never heard of, I took the chance. And indeed, that's precisely the sort of reason you'd want to come here; the chochoyotes, which are corn-based dumplings, apparently exist in a variety of non-vegetarian forms, but the one here was promised to me as a "flavor bomb" and lived up to that billing, with some combination of coconut, pumpkin seeds, something spicy, and a variety of flavors I struggled to place. A house salad wasn't overly complex, but was large, delivered a ton of avocado but also some nut-based substitute for queso fresco that was quite satisfying; non-dairy cheese is not easy but it can be done well.A fruity agua fresca was a wise decision and the tropical atmosphere was appropriate. I was glad I finally found an off day when I was in Atlanta because at peak times the reservations fill. And why shouldn't they?

Amazed by the flavors at a vegan place. We had an empanada and it came with this amazing salsa. We had to ask for the salsa again. Definitely going on my list to come back.
