Some Things Happy Customers Have Said
Leah S.
Vegan deliciousness all rolled up into one at this cozy one of a kind gem on the SouthSide! From the customer service to the food, everything we had was an A++. I got the collards, sweet potatoes, Mac &cheese, & substituted the BBQ cauliflower for the jerk tofu. Definitely returning to get the fried okra, fritters, and more of the battered cauliflower! Great job, putting love into your food, Majani team…we felt and tasted all of it!

Best vegan cuisine I've eaten in a while. Service was amazing, a complementary cup of soup was exactly what we needed on a cold & rainy evening. The fried cauliflower in bbq sauce is a tasty starter, gumbo with yellow rice and greens was so good! Mushroom tacos looked pretty and tasted delicious, I did have to take half home, reheating didn't dry the food either. Try the ginger lemonade too.
Diana L.
The food is delicious with ample portions. In addition to the yummy BBQ, the perfectly seasoned greens, and yams, there were fried green tomatoes the day of my visit! (See their menu for more selections.) The staff is professional and helpful. The Ginger lemonade is an ideal refersher.

I went there for the first time today and I will return! I had the oyster mushroom tacos! Delicious! You get two tacos that are loaded with the oyster mushrooms and sweet potatoes wedges, if you are looking for a vegan restaurant with delicious food, clean atmosphere and a friendly staff check Majani!
