Vegan Flava Cafe

I had the mock fish cakes brunch with kale salad, black beans, and cheese grits. I added walnut meat on top of my black beans and got a side of chips. This was sooo amazing. One bite in I was like Lord this is unreal how amazing it is. So good forgot to take a photo, but will definitely take one next time. Mock fish cakes with sauce- texture was perfection. Not too soft not too hard and maintained it's form. I loved all the flavor without the saltiness of usual old bay seasoning. I'd definitely recommend them to a friend and try again. Kale Salad- your typical raw kale salad with addition of ALL the flava. This was very yummy I'd love it as is or with some pumpkin seeds, almonds and cranberries for a different flavor. But I have no complaints for having it as is.Black beans with Walnut Topping and Salsa and Chips- Really amazing. No overly salty flavor that you can get when ordering black beans. Perfectly seasoned with quite the killer salsa flavor. I loved it! The walnuts oh my goodness I legit was like HOW IS THIS SO GOOD YET RAW?! Then I remembered VEGAN FLAVA! They live up to their name definitely. The chips were good and not overly salty which again I love and appreciate. Cheese Grits- Again, I sound like a broken record but all that flava without some less than desirable saltiness or fake vegan product. I was soooo satisfied with how well it paired with the mock fish cakes. Truly enjoyed it.All in all everything was amazing. There is nothing that I would change. I have been trying to get to this place for years and now I have succeeded in doing so and already ready to go back and get it again. Amazing food, amazing service, and unparalleled FLAVA.

I'm speechless! Not really, but this place is THAT good!!! I had the walnut tacos supreme, and seriously the BEST vegan tacos I've EVER had!! I'm not kidding! It was fresh, delicious and served with a smile! The owner was extremely kind and friendly and i would definitely be a regular if i lived here! It was a tad bit hard to find, tucked away inside a back building, but i called and then it was easy. My big mistake was only getting 2 tacos instead of 3...not because they were small (they weren't!), but because they were SO yummy!! I also felt like it was very reasonably priced, which is awesome!!

Let me put it this way. I would still visit Vegan Flava Café and I am no longer vegan They have the best kale salad that I have ever tried. I have attempted multiple times to replicate to no avail. My favorite menu items are the fish cakes and the walnut tacos. Not to mention they are locally owned and are educating people on how to make healthy choices without sacrificing flavor.

Talk about a frustrating experience! First of all, this place is hidden and has no good signage. We called two times trying to find the place. The guy was not helpful at all! Second, there wasn't a sign on the door saying that we needed to order outside. We came into order only to be told rudely that we needed to wait outside. The food was decent, but the tacos were cold. Wish they would have been served warm. Not worth the hassle for the food.

Tucked away in the small back corner of Blue Dogwood Market lies an unassuming yet inquisitive place. For someone who was looking for a less heavy fare compared to the Franklin's other counterparts, Vegan Flava Cafe had what I needed. To me, this place is inviting for vegans and non vegans alike. Typical favorites such as tacos had a healthy twist, with unique bbq jackfruit that tastes like a sweet, juicy alternative of pulled pork. The kale salad had a flavorful almond mock seafood blend that added a subtle kick to the seasoned greens. Yahi, the owner, gave wonderful recommendations and gives off a welcoming vibe that invites anyone to come learn more about how to eat healthier and be more open to rich, live foods. I encourage anyone to find their way to this hidden gem whether you are a looking for a nutritious, sustainable meal or an eclectic dish with a hint of spice.

Super chill vibe. Yah-I Sinclair is a v interesting person and I learned a lot about better eating and other things from him. Very creative menu and quality food. The place has a great vibe too with other artisanal restaurants, art and beer and wine. Love it.

Had a less than ideal brunch experience at the old location right after they opened and it almost put me off Vegan Flava for good. Glad I decided to give it a second chance.Stopped by the new North Gate location for dinner with a buddy and decided to put together a 3 selection sampler with BBQ jackfruit, fish cakes, and chana masala served with quinoa, kale salad, and plantains. Though a bit expensive for my taste, super tasty and will definitely be back for more.Question for anyone ordering on Grubhub-is there any way to put together a special for delivery? I live just down the road but sometimes, man, I just don't want to leave the house...

Amazing vegan food! My favorite dish so far is the curry lentils. The smoothies are also very tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Awesome. So nice to find my RTP Gem. The team is awesome I was given sample of an amazing chocolate daube, the Mac and cheez. Is Good!! And I have to say having dessert options makes any and every meal excellent

Great food and friendly service. Enjoyed the pancakes, grits, and black beans. The fish cakes are delicious. I had the wraps before which were delicious too. The person whoo prepares the delicious meals is full of valuable information about the food and vegan/vegetarian diet. Definitely will return again.
