I ordered the vegan drumsticks (their take on fried chicken wings), vegan potato salad, and vegan macaroni and cheese. The drumsticks were hands down the best mock meat I have ever tasted - filling, with a satisfying texture reminiscent of chicken but completely vegan. The fried coating was perfect, and the addition of a large wooden "bone" inside was a fun touch. I dipped them in their house-made ranch dressing, which was also exceptional. The potato salad was creamy and flavorful, and the vegan macaroni and cheese was delicious with a cheesy texture. For dessert, we took home a slice of red velvet cake, which was just as amazing as the rest of the meal. The cake was thick, moist, and the i...
Vegan restaurants tend to be a bit pricey no matter what city they are in, so the prices were pretty much expected. Being from Texas, I am used to meal/plate options. However, they only offered a la carte, which can be good if you are with a group and want to share with others. The portions were large, what one would expect with a la cart, but too much for a person traveling alone. The plate option would have been better for me as I was in town visiting. It appears that they use a lot of soy options for meat substitutes, which may be a problem for those who try to keep soy out of their diet. For those who don't mind, they did a pretty good job with the chicken drumetts, the okra and tomatoes...
I must admit, I don't often leave reviews, but after my third visit to Nuvegan, I can't help but share my positive experience. They have consistently delivered both in flavor and customer service. It's become a Friday ritual for me to swing by after work, and I'm always greeted warmly by the female manager. Her friendly attitude and always offering samples when I get indecisive not only make me want to return, but also encourages me to explore different menu options. Without a doubt, the Mac n cheese has won my heart as a favorite! Yesterday, I decided to try their drink selection. The same manager asked about my flavor preferences and recommended the lemon and ginger drink. It was not only...
godel was one of the friendly cash I've ever met! He needs a $100 raise, as now. that was my first visit and he was a great introduction to this restaurant. the portions were generous, which I appreciated very much because, although it was expensive, it felt like I was worth my money. a little less would feel like a demolition. the eating was sooo good that I had to remember my own breathing while I was eating. had enough to wait the next day for breakfast (because I couldn't wait until lunch) as a vegetarian foodman from the south, I 100% approve this place. the ambiente here was beautiful. it was so nice to see so many black people in and enjoy vegan eating! I love what this place stands f...

I really wanted to like this restaurant because of all the great reviews, but unfortunately, I was not impressed. I am giving it a few stars because the staff was very nice, the atmosphere was great, and I enjoyed the music. I ordered the mac and cheese, huh, and collard greens, but they all tasted overly salty. I couldn't even finish my meal because of the overwhelming sodium content. The huh had a rubbery texture and didn't taste like real huh. The cinnamon roll was the highlight of the meal, but it was too sugary and dry. Overall, I think this restaurant is a good option for vegans and non-vegans alike, but I wish they would go easy on the salt and sugar.
I ordered only for the cinnamon rolls. I did order other items. When I get the items, the cinnamon rolls were missing. I called to ask if there was a mistake with packing or if they were out, and they immediately put me on hold for 5 minutes. I call back a few more times, and then I get a pick up and then was told that I was going to be on hold again. I was on hold for 10 minutes and nobody will pick up. As a long time patron, I am pretty disappointed.
I had difficulty finding vegan options in the USA, and the few I did come across seemed to be primarily "beans and lentils" dishes. That's why I was thrilled to discover NuVegan. The food was delicious, with a wide variety of choices and generous portions, all at a reasonable price. The staff were also friendly and accommodating. I deducted one star for the atmosphere, as the loud music wasn't to my liking.
This restaurant in DC is one of my top favorites. I adore the vegan dishes and can't get enough of them. The atmosphere is welcoming, the service is excellent, and the food is simply outstanding.

I've been vegetarian for 2 months and my taste buds were tired of the same stuff. I decided to try NuVegan and this place restored my faith. This is the best vegan food in the area hands down!!
The food was incredible, the staff was friendly, and the overall experience was fantastic. I will definitely return!
