This was my first time trying this restaurant and it was pretty good! I would highly recommend the Mac and cheese, it was very good. The pad Thai was slightly disappointing , not my favorite. This is an all vegetarian restaurant, and even though I'm not vegetarian I would go back! The service was great and there is a ton of seating . read more

Came here years ago when it first opened and absolutely loved it. I made my most recent trip out with a group of friends to celebrate a birthday. The interior design doesnt have anything remarkable, but the food is what shines here. I also want to add that it did look very disorderly the day we went; there was food on the tables and floors that hadn't been cleaned up. We ordered a ton from the menu including the mac and cheese, brussel sprouts, General Tso's cauliflower, shishito peppers, nachos, bruschetta, chili cheese fries, pad thai, and vegan artichoke dip. Every single item was absolutely scrumptious and my friends were blown away. They were all super skeptical about trying out an all vegan restaurant but we're completely in shock (from sheer happiness) at how delicious every item was. read more

My coworker is gluten-free and we were lucky enough to stumble along Seva. All the good was incredible. I had the artichoke po boy with yam fries. IT WAS DELICIOUS! Joy was incredible. She was so kind, helpful, and attentive. read more

It's been a long time-too long of a time-since I last enjoyed the excellence of Seva Detroit-and by excellence, I mean that in all aspects! Not once have I been disappointed by the food, the service, the company, the environment and surroundings, or the overall quality and experience of dining here. The food is of such a high quality and fantastic flavor profile that both my father and my husband (who both are...very selective about what vegetables they will eat) tore through their dishes! I strongly recommend them! read more

I went here for my birthday lunch. The food was amazing and VEGAN! Yum. The atmosphere was fun. The staff gave great recommendations and that lavender lemon drop martini! I'm excited about my next dinner there. read more

We arrived quite early on a Saturday evening, about 5:30 p.m. and the place was already packed. Rather than wait for a table, we sat at the bar. We started with the Bruschetta appetizer and it was amazing. For entrees, my wife ordered a Tempeh Reuben and I had the Black Bean & Sweet Potato Quesadilla. It was all great. We're already planning to return in a couple of weeks. read more

This is a cute little restaurant with a wide selection of options. The waitstaff were all very nice and had recommendations. The cauliflower was cited as everyone's favorite and I can see why. A good cauliflower wing seems like it should be easy but there is a lot of variation. The first few bites of the general tso cauliflower were amazing. So crisp and flavorful. By the end it wasn't as crisp which is to be expected but definitely not as good as those first super hot crispy bites. The lentil soup was great if not a bit simple. Something I can imagine eating at home, not in a bad way. The mock tail I ordered was a bit too sweet and I couldn't really taste all the flavors it was supposed to have in it. read more

Seva is a great spot for brunch, lunch or dinner in midtown. It's vegetarian, not vegan, so there's plenty of cheesy goodness to be had if you want it! There's a range of options, from "standard American fare that happens to be vegetarian" to tempeh, seitan, faux meat, and dairy alternatives. The daily special on our last visit was butternut squash lasagna, which was made with fresh pasta and goat cheese, and served with balsamic glazed roasted Brussels sprouts. It was INCREDIBLE and well worth the higher price. Don't sleep on the daily deals - for example on Wednesdays all draft beer is half off! Service can be quite slow, so let your server know if you're in a hurry. Otherwise, excellent option for dinner before a show at the Majestic! read more

Seva is a great, unassuming spot to meet friends for no meat. Fantastic food, that just so happens to be vegetarian & vegan! But seriously, don't think of it as a compromise even if you're of the carnivore persuasion. The menu covers enough to make most happy, and while the atmosphere is *quite* drab, the friendly service more than makes up for it. read more

AVERAGE at best. Unfortunate! I've been going to Seva since I was a small child (original location in Ann Arbor) The Detroit location just really doesn't get it right. My husband and I have been going, sporadically because of disappointing experiences, for over 11 years. Just went to try it again like we do now, rarely. Disappointing again. The pad Thai was TINY. The mushroom sandwich was GREASY. It's like a vegetarian Applebees. Meh. Servers are always nice - but it's a big loud hang-out of employees near the bar usually, sit in the dining room. read more

The food is so good. I always get a side of the chili cheese fries. They are so flavorful and completely convincing for a plant based option. The general Tso's cauliflower is also good. read more

I was looking for a quick to-go lunch and opted for the taco salad with tofu added and complete with vegan nacho cheese, salsa verde, and a side of chips. The food here is both exceptional and diverse, with generous, fresh portions that leave you satisfied. The staff is remarkably kind and welcoming. I highly recommend dining here, and don't hesitate to bring your carnivorous friends along!! While it may be a bit on the expensive side, the quality and experience make it well worth the cost. Definitely will be back before heading back home! read more

Seva Detroit - Seva's Taco Salad - Vegetarian Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

This is one of my absolute favorite restaurants here in Detroit! My favorite dish is the California Scramble. I always start with the General Tso Cauliflower. The service is absolutely phenomenal, very CLEAN environment too! The dining area is clean and the bathrooms are clean and very well kept. The only small pinch I ever had here was one time when they brought out Appetizer (General Tso Cauliflower) it tasted not so fresh as if it been sitting for a while, but the waitress promptly brought out a new batch. Overall it's a great dining experience. I'm going to be sure to add more pictures! read more

I'd rate 4.5 but I'll be nice and go to 5 stars. It's awesome having a full restaurant dedicated to vegan and vegetarian food. The food is tasty and healthy too. I had a big salad with tempeh. Yum! And another day I had vegan crab cakes that were so tasty. My mom had a beyond burger she loved. And we had lentil soup that we both thought was the best lentil soup we had. The waitress was really nice. We ate on a nice sunny day so we could take advantage of the outdoor seating. read more

This continues to be one of my go to spots for easy vegan eating in Detroit. This vegan/vegetarian restaurant also has a full bar. Brunch, lunch or dinner you just can't go wrong. Call ahead though if you don't want to have a long wait. While they don't take reservations, they can let you know the approximate wait and take your name. The food has not failed me even when trying something new. read more

Stopped by here for lunch when my friend and I were in Detroit this past summer. I was feeling extra hungry, so I decided to get their reuben and one of their smoothies, as well as a vegan coney dog to go. Our server was very friendly and attentive, and our food came out pretty quickly. This place isn't exactly what I would consider cheap, but the portions are very generous for their prices. I had the coney dog first, which was fantastic. The smoothie I had was very refreshing, which was nice as it was rather hot the day we had gone in. The reuben was humongous and delicious. Would love to come back here, should I find myself back in Detroit one day. read more

Seva Detroit - Vegan Coney dog with fries - Vegetarian Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

Decided to try Seva, even though I am not vegetarian. It was a bit hard to find the entrance (the entrance is located in the alley behind the contemporary art studio). We were seated indoors but Seva does have a nice outdoor seating area. The waiter was super nice and attentive. The music was great! Paintings on the wall are beautiful! We started with the yam fries and the general tso's cauliflower. Both tasted great! For entrees we had the Jambalaya, Pad Thai and quesadilla. The pad Thai noodles were a bit hard/undercooked but the flavor was great. The Jambalaya was the crowd favorite, highly recommend. The quesadilla was also good. Had the lemon drop as a drink... it was okay. read more

I have been going to the Detroit Seva location for over ten years and have always had a good experience. The food is really good and service is normally good. Their patio is unfortunately not dog friendly though :-( read more

Seva is on a little side street, in what appears to be an art collective. It's a bit tricky to find, but once you get there, it's a bright, open space. It's entirely vegetarian, and most of the items can be made vegan. My boyfriend and I ordered a bruschetta to share, a large appetizer with pieces of bread, tomato, olive tapenade, and almond pesto. It was fun putting them together and totally delicious. He ordered the jambalaya, and I got the mushroom French Dip with vegan cheese. I do think we ordered a bit much to eat, as the portions are generous (especially the large pile of fries that came with my sandwich!). It didn't stop us from getting a dessert to share, the chocolate raspberry cake. The service was friendly and competent. If I go back to Detroit, I'll definitely try again. (But maybe I'll get a salad next time.) read more

What a wonderful treat while in Detroit for the day. Our server was spectacular and all four of us loved our meals. Super grateful to have found delish vegan food in Detroit. read more

I tried Seva with some of my friends who are vegetarian. I have to say, the food was really good. It was a Thursday night so things were a little bit slower, but I could see the space being incredibly busy on other days. I got the ravioli, which was absolutely delicious. My friends ordered the pad Thai and general tso's cauliflower which also looked delicious. Being a work night, I didn't try any drinks, but my friend got the lemon drop which she liked quite a bit. I believe there is only street parking. The door is also a little bit harder to find, it is in a little alleyway. Overall, I would recommend this place! As a meat lover, it most likely wouldn't be my first choice for a night out, but the food was incredible and I would love to go back sometime. read more

I took my boyfriend here for Sweetest Day and the food was fantastic. I went with the suggested General Tso Califlower and the crust was pretty convincing. It was amazing. I ordered the yam fries with my meal and my boyfriend kept selling the fries from me, they were so good. The aioli sauce that comes with it was great too. I got the vegan coney dog and it wasn't the best. The bread was hard and the hot dog obviously tasted grain-based. My boyfriend was very satisfied with his jerk jackfruit. The drinks are amazing here as well. I was feeling very tipsy off one lemon drop. I'm sure I'll come here again just for a drinks. I took off one star because our waitress was not very attentive. If they offer to sit you in the back and you have the bartender as a waitress, decline. I had to grab my waitress' attention every time we wanted to order something because otherwise she would have been doing other errands and never come to our table. This kinda ruined our experience and added a good 30+ minutes to our dining experience because we had to track her down. Otherwise, food and drinks were amazing and looking forward to coming here again. read more

I came to Detroit to visit my family and since I'm the only vegan, they always accommodate me when making dinner plans. I came across Seva Detroit on Instagram and suggested it to my family. We called and were placed on the waiting list for a group of 5. When we arrived our table wasn't quite ready yet so we decided to sit at the bar and order drinks. Our female bartender was very friendly and made our drinks really strong. Then once our table was ready, we paid our bar tab and then headed to our table. We were greeted by Victor and he recommended the jambalaya. All of our food was delicious and we learned they even have a soy free menu for those with an allergy! Our waiter Victor went above and behind, thank you for the great customer service and laughs. read more

Seva Detroit - Vegan Pasta alla Bosca & Vegan Jambalaya - Vegetarian Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

We returned for dinner on a Friday night and sat right down at 6:15 with call ahead seating. Nice! I started with their cocktail special: the Heart Beet. (Very Valentine's Day ) It was a lovely vodka drink with a beet juice shot, done at the table. Memorable, beautiful and tasted really good; earthy, not very sweet, somehow a "healthy" cocktail. Bonus. My friend had a cider, they're always good. Our server was fun and attentive. As for food, my friend ordered her regular: the cilantro peanut stir fry. Yum. I had the artichoke po boy sandwich which was truly amazing. Perfectly crispy artichoke bites on a soft bun with this delicious, tangy garlic aioli and Cole slaw. Wow. This sandwich is so crave-able I want to take hubby this week to try it! Of course I got the yam fries with spicy aioli because they're the best in the city. Such a great night and can't wait to return. read more

I want to try more items off the menu. read more

Seva Detroit - Coney Dog & Yam fries - Vegetarian Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

Convinced a friend to come here for lunch today. She is not vegetarian or vegan and the whole ride to the restaurant she kept saying, "I'll miss having meat." Well, she didn't miss it at all! Since it was a beautiful day we opted to sit on the patio. We had a couple aggressive yellow jackets, and slightly slow service; other than that, everything was great. We shared the grilled halloumi with lemony garbanzo beans. It was delicious. My meat eater friend even said, "wow! Vegetarians must love this cheese, it's so thick and tasty, it's like meat." The rest of the meal consisted of the chargrilled vegetable salad with sesame coated goat cheese. The veggies were refectory seared, the vinaigrette was delicious, and the goat cheese was a perfect touch. The black bean and sweet potato quesadilla was pretty close to perfection. It was stuffed with ingredients, served with a little side of guacamole and green salsa, and chips. read more

A great vegetarian spot serving tasty items that even carnivores will enjoy! Pros: lots of variety, great food, beautiful outdoor seating area, friendly servers, perfect for vegetarians and vegans! Cons: weird location with limited parking, their waitlist/seating was really disorganized (we ended up waiting over an hour for a table when we called ahead and was told it would only be 10 minutes, I understand that they were really busy tho) Food ratings: * Quesadilla-- good, nothing special tho * Buffalo tempeh wings-- really basic, not worth the money * Vegan Mac-- slightly disappointing according to the vegan who ate it * Sweet potato fries-- great! The spicy Mayo was very tasty too * Chilli cheese fries-- pretty good! A little dry tho and nothing special * General tso's cauliflower-- really delicious!! My favorite off the menu * Shishito peppers-- pretty good! A very simple dish tho read more

Wow. I used to frequent Seva several years ago but I kept having bad experiences, so I stopped going. One time it was this fuzzy stuff on my food, as if it had fallen on the floor. Alas, a few years have gone by and my friends recommended we go there for brunch I told them I've had some bad experiences and they said it must've changed in the last five years. So I said lets do it! What a huge mistake. I went for brunch, I specifically asked for a gluten free menu. My friends can attest to the fact that it was a conversation with the waitress about what was good GF. I ordered the bruschetta and general tso's cauliflower OFF THE GLUTEN FREE MENU. The menu I was holding and pointing to was the gluten free menu. We discussed at length gluten free options. I don't even think it could have been the waitress's fault. Fast forward to me receiving my food, enjoying it, and then within a half hour starting to feel extremely sick. I was ill for the following two days. As I thought about what I had eaten it occurred to me maybe that wasn't GF. I drive over and show them the take out/the bread (luckily I had taken it to go) and the hostess and manager agree that what I was served was not the gluten free bread. If you are the owner and you are reading this, I want you to know the manager was only able to offer me a $13 gift card to your restaurant to cover the bruschetta. $13 in food credit compared to how sick I was for two days straight. You guys NEED TO GET IT TOGETHER. The last three times I have eaten at SEVA, I have once, gotten a weird dirt fuzz stuck to my kale salad, like it had fallen on the floor and was picked back up. A hair in my friends food, the wrong meal sent, and accidentally been fed something I communicated I was allergic to. ALL THAT in 3 visits. Of course I don't want a gift card. Are you kidding me? You guys have so much potential. Please be better. read more

Seva Detroit - This is not GLUTEN FREE BREAD - Vegetarian Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

Where do I even start? I have nothing but good experiences at Seva. My only little gripe is the parking situation but otherwise, Seva has really yummy food. My dad, who is an avid seafood lover had the Vegan Crab cakes and he told me he really enjoyed them. My mom had the Vegan Jambalaya which she said was delicious, and my mom loves eating meat. I had the Reuben which was so good, and the portion was perfect! We also had some desserts. I had Keylime pie which was served with this whipped coconut cream, and I loved it! My Dad had the Red Velvet cake also served with coconut cream. He was really impressed, as was I since I'm not a fan of Red Velvet, but this was surprisingly good. Considering the many restaurants I've been to that had vegan cake that made me wonder if those restaurants tried their own cakes. If they did, either their taste buds aren't working or they don't care. Yup, throwing shade today! Unfortunately I didn't take pictures of the food because I was too busy enjoying it, along with my family. But if you're ever in the area, check out Seva. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND it. If you go when it's warm, you'll have the option to sit outside under a shaded area and it's nice. Seva has definitely become one of my favorite Vegan friendly restaurants. read more

I was excited to find a restaurant with Gluten Free options!!!!! Super friendly staff!!! Fun location!!! DELICIOUS FOOD!!!!! I was blown away by the Corn Chowder!

Great spot if your vegan or vegan curious! (Or don't mind vegetables) I've been here several times since it's close to work. They have a great patio (which I find very comfortable in these COVID days) where you can dine. They also have curbside and pick up if you choose to order ahead. Some of my favorites are the general tsos cauliflower, black bean and sweet potato quesadilla - and the tempeh kale ceaser is garlicky goodness! Price is a little of the high side - but ingredients are always fresh! read more

I'm glad that a vegetarian option restaurant is still open during cover. They had the outside table area open for seating. The food was decent, ordered a beyond burger and cocktail. The staff wasn't as friendly as we were expecting and am honestly disappointed. The food is decent, but i'm big on experience and customer service and this place happened to lack that. Wouldn't recommend for sit-down but maybe would to take out. read more

The service and food have completely gone downhill. I am so sad to see this from having a longtime love affair with this restaurant. They had un bussed dirty tables everywhere. The food was inconsistent. We were Celebrating a birthday and was completely embarrassed at the level of bad service and food. The sauce they served were nothing like in the past it was flavorless. The pesto was oily. They would not put our sandwich on our preferred bread and everything that came out was wrong. Let's hope the Ann Arbor is still giving the wonderful food they used to have. So sad they don't respect Detroit diners. read more

First - 5+ stars for desserts and drinks. Seva makes both a delight whether dining in or carrying out. I also appreciate that they have several non-alcoholic "mocktails". Their desserts are rich and of good texture. You won't miss traditional dairy in them. Go for the pear tart with with it's delicious cream and caramel sauce - if you're getting it to go ask to substitute with coconut cream - it's delicious and the coconut cream holds up well. The German chocolate cake is good with lots of delicious coconut, and my favorite is still the creamy key lime pie. It's got a strong, fresh lime flavor. When it's cold, I love to get their ginger elixir. It is spicy and helps me warm up. I also enjoy their turmeric tonic. Their alcoholic cocktails have all been good, and the list keeps changing so I tend to just ask the bartender what's their favorite and go with that. I have had great luck with the appetizers and salads at Seva, and some of the main courses. Disclaimer: though this food is vegan or vegetarian, depending on how you order, it's not necessarily healthy! A lot of their dishes are full of fat and salt, and they are delicious! Some of my favorites: Vegan nacho dip - creamy and flavorful Shishito peppers - I love the char on these, and they are pretty healthy. Vegan cobb salad - smoked coconut! Chargrilled vegetable salad - great variety of veg, well-cooked Tempeh Reuben and TLT - The tempeh here is delicious! I hope you enjoy Seva as much as I do. It's one of my favorite places to go on my own, sit in the bar, and enjoy a delicious night out. read more
