| - As a vegan, I have heard great things by people who have reviewed this eatery, and by coworkers. I decided to give it a shot, and I was pleasantly surprised. I had the unchicken, sweet potato mash, collard greens and waffles. My mother, had the same thing as myself, except she had a side of macaroni and cheese.
We ordered the Shitake mushroom "clams" for a starter, and these were delicious. Very filling, and a large quantity. The dip was great, and went along really well with the mushrooms. Give it a try if you ever go.
The unchicken were crisp, and hot. They tasted almost like real chicken, and I'm sure that people who aren't vegans, would have loved the food here as well. The sweet potato mash was fluffy and warm, and was a wonderful side to the meal. The collard greens were not bitter, and had a garlic glaze of some sort, I enjoyed them. And the waffles were mind blowing, I truly did indulge.
My mother's dish was also well made, except she and I could agree that the mac n' cheese had an acquired taste. They were very sour, and the taste of vinegar was over powering. She struggled to eat it all, and said that combining it with other foods made it taste better and dilute the sour flavor.
The water, came in quaint water bottles, but it was room temperature, maybe even warm. If it was refrigerated, it would have been a lot more thirst-quenching.
The service, was impeccable. The people who work there are very sweet, and inviting. They're all smiles, and they check on you, and get your order fast. Really happy with the service.
The place is very easy to miss, it has a tiny little sign which says "hog town vegan's", so you must be careful when searching for it!
