The food was delicious! We came for lunch but ended up getting more for dinner, too. Fried mushrooms were a highlight, and the veggie lasagne. The owner was really nice and welcoming. Definitely recommend!

Visiting Savannah for a long weekend and we were thrilled to discover this place. The people here are amazing and the food is incredible! I wish they had a restaurant near us!

I’d heard this place was good and wanted to see for myself. It did not disappoint. The staff was courteous enough to let me order although I arrived a minute prior to them closing. I ordered cauliflower-fried, and greens (they were kind enough to let me taste another side). The food for me was seasoned to perfection. The cauliflower was nicely battered and crisp. It melted in my mouth! While I do not typically eat cornbread, it was a welcomed accompaniment to the greens which were tender and flavorful. The mac was good and creamy. Lastly, the service was amazing, and the sit in area was clean!!! The ports-men and women are lucky to have this place right next to them. I will definitely be going back!

The atmosphere was very inviting and the employees were very sweet. There was a nice spread of food options to choose from plus options in the back. I returned to my car with my plate and took one bite of everything. After doing so I had to return for the peach cobbler because everything was phenomenal. I highly recommend and I will definitely be back.

I absolutely love Hungry Vegan! Each time I go I get their big vegan plate with their cauliflower wings. They are nice and crispy as well as paired well with their vegan ranch. The plate is so filling! It comes with rice, vegan Mac and cheese, corn bread, and a choice of two sides. Their peach cobbler is also quite tasty! I can’t wait to eat it with some ice cream! This place is definitely one of my favorites!

Incredible vegan soul food. Best I’ve ever had. Home made. Collard greens. Vegan Mac. Black eyed peas. Fried mushrooms. Plus peach cobbler. It’s incredible food for a place off the well beaten path of Savannah. Do not miss this. You wouldn’t know it was vegan.

One of the best vegan meals I’ve had—I had the big vegan with fried mushrooms, mac and cheese, black eyed peas, greens, and rice with gravy. Everything was so delicious and the people were super nice. Will definitely be back when I am in town next!

We stopped here on our last day in Savannah and the food was delicious. Their meatloaf is great, and the greens and everything else. If you’re vegan in Savannah and looking for great vegan soul food, be sure to come here (My partner isn’t even vegan and he loved it!) Be sure to get their fried oyster mushrooms too
