    Veggie burger wrap
    Gin K.

    Loved this gem of a place! Adorable, huge menu, friendly and knowledgeable staff, cute deck and plenty of seating, free parking. Lots of gluten-free options and whole place is vegan, whoo hoo! Easy to avoid many intolerances for me. We shared the gluten-free lasagna (delicious), and gf veggie burger wrap along with a greens side and a Pad Thai side. Then a sugary dessert (creamy silken tofu chocolate chip). Didn't see the outdoor cats but live that they take care of them!

    Burger bowl with black bean hummus
    Brooke s.

    Yummy!! So glad to finally try this healthy vegan restaurant. Staff were helpful in answering my questions about their different options. They have wraps, bowls, burgers, rotating specialties, sides, etc. I got the burger bowl & especially enjoyed the black bean hummus I added on! I also love the exterior of their building and the fact that they have a cute cat outside to welcome you as you enter! Would love to come again and try something else.

    Did not get a pic this time. I tried the southern bbq bowl with a mix of brown rice and quinoa. Hit the spot because I was craving some southern comfort food. I also tried the chocolate mousse. It had a kick of cayenne, a nice surprise. The service was quick; it was a bit after a lunch rush. And I got it to go as my pup was in the car.

    Vegan BBQ Sandwich
    Amayah E.

    Okay well that was one of the yummiest vegan barbecue sandwiches I have had. I also got the bacon ranch chicken wrap to go and it was so yummy! I would get that over and over again! Everything can be made gluten free, yes even the wraps! Which is very rare. Overall, this is a great place to go for a southern flared vegan restaurant that gives you that feel of Nashville. Also, their pad thai cold salad was so great!

    famous bbq bowl with side of garlic aioli (don't skip it)
    Elizabeth B.

    One of the best vegan/vegetarian/clean restaurants in the Nashville area - so grateful to live and work close by. My go to is the buffalo tempeh wrap and the famous bbq. Today I need warm, comforting, filling food and went with the famous bbq bowl over season potatoes, melted cashew queso, and a side of garlic aioli and it was absolutely perfection!! The service is consistently friendly and quick, you walk up to order and then are given your food on a tray. They have beautiful indoor and outdoor table space. While their private parking lot is tight, I've never had an issue getting a spot. Their desserts are also a big hit, didn't order any today! They did offer some free halloween candy. I appreciate their self-service items and to-go containers for ease packing leftovers.

    Mood: vegan eats! Very very filling & delicious. So fresh and obviously made in house. Really enjoyed the Asian slaw that came with both dishes. Hummus 10/10 Bar b que wrap 8/10 Bar b que bowl 8/10 Overall the place is quiet, clean, with top tier service. Such a hidden gem (to me) but located in a great area.

    Jalapeño Burger
    Greg P.

    This place is slightly hidden. parking in the back. This is my second time here and not the last. It will be a staple to come check and have when in Nashville. Everything here is vegan, and packed with flavor. Their burgers are some of the best I've ever had. The jalapeno burger is awesome! Its got a tiny kick to it but the flavor is great. The bbq beef is what they are famous for but it's not my favorite. The service is super quick and friendly. All the food is already prepared and they have cafeteria like set up. You walk up order and pay and pick the food up at the register. I would encourage to try everything on the menu. I don't think you can go wrong. I can tell you one thing, if this place was close to my house i wouldn't hesitate to go vegan.

    Roasted root wrap
    Lana B.

    100% recommend sunflower cafe. A variety of options- bowls, wraps, salads, tacos, nachos, phillies, veggie burger galor, and lots of sides options. I got the roasted roots wrap, it was super good. I also got the black bean hummus. Super refreshing lunch. They have beer, kombucha, and CBD drink options. Order cafeteria style. Indoor and outdoor seating with the cutest feline company on the porch. I will be making my way through this menu.

    Chickpea salad
    Chris A.

    This is a great spot to go for Vegan/Vegetarian. The food is very good and the staff are friendly. I myself am not vegan or vegetarian but I am completely open to eating it. Food is food :) To the meat eaters out there, go into these places with an open mind, I guarantee you will enjoy it. A good diet consists of "mostly plants" as I heard a doctor say once before. We as Americans eat too much meat I believe. Meat used to be a treat and a special thing. Saying that, yes I am a meat eater, and yes I probably eat too much meat. Now on to the review: I usually opt for their "you pick two" (Not sure if that's what it's called) but I get the soup option and a side. I don't get to eat out as often as I want but each time I have come here, it's always delicious and served with love.

    Is it dog friendly?

    I was there the other day and saw a couple sitting outside with their dog.

    What's vegetarian on the menu?

    Everything is vegan on the menu. There are some gluten free items too. I've enjoyed their delicious food for years. Even my non vegan family enjoys coming here. They'll help you with food allergies too. Have a fun time!!

    Does anybody have a pad Thai copycat recipe? I live in Knoxville and constantly crave Sunflower's pad Thai!

    I love their Pad Thai!! I make a vegan Pad Thai and quick easy sauce I use is a Thai Almond sauce. I get mine from thrive market. It is so tasty! Check out this product on Thrive Market: https://thrivemarket.com/yais-thai-almond-sauce… 

    What are their veggie burgers made out of?

    I asked this weekend! I was told: purple sticky rice, sweet potato, beets, sunflower seeds, and sundried tomato paste.

There are glass demos, gallery tours, 15 minute seasonal glass experiences and more intensive sessions for those interested in a private session with their head of glass.

Our sever was new but he had great energy and was very enthusiastic. One of my friends has a gluten allergy & is sensitive to egg/heavy dishes so he was diligent in checking on ingredients and substitutions for her. That said, they did not have a lot of options for her. I get it, weird dietary needs, but the kitchen's lack of substitution flexibility for allergies was surprising. It was a really nice day out so we had marked in our reservation that we wanted patio seating with a view. We were seated at a standard height half-booth table that did not have a view over the railing so it was kind of a waste. The booth material was also cracked/peeling along the seam so it was pinching my thighs (I was wearing a dress) and was uncomfortable. The food was just okay. It's definitely on the pricier side for brunch in Nashville, albeit probably in line for 12S. My partner's French toast was little burnt. The best thing was the truffle parm fries, but mainly because of the dipping sauce. I had the Beverly Club but it wasn't anything special and a little pricy for what it is. I'd be interested to see how their dinner service compares.
