    Fried Tofu Fingers (half hot half teriyaki)
    Natalie L.

    So glad I stopped in! My food was PHENOMENAL! Amazing food, friendly staff, healthy portion sizes, and fun decor plus knowing it's all vegan so it's better for you and the planet. Checks all my boxes!

    Pulled BBQ Sandwich
    Alexandra E.

    Came here on a whim looking to share the vegetarian experience with my friend. Place was empty but clean, we were greeted and seated right away. My friend ordered a burger with fries and I had the pulled pork with tots. Super delicious and lots of flavor for both. We shared the cookies and cream milk shake, a little nutty but also yummy. I ordered a side of Vegan ranch, definitely not a fan but everything else was tasty. The only reason this place didn't get 5 stars was because of the condescending attitude of the waitress, who was slow and not at all friendly.

    Chick'n sandwich with kale
    Emizz Z.

    Yummmm-o Not a vegetarian but brought a vegan friend visitor here for brunch. A cute little diner with great and efficient waitress Got the chick'n sandwich with kale side - inhale the whole thing. Friend got the scrambled tofu eggs and said it was solid. Pricing is reasonable. They also have a little mart with vegan snacks and goodies

    Fried Tofu Fingers with barbecue
    Angela R.

    Bean is the bomb!! So wish we had a Bean near us! We ordered the Tofu fingers on BBQ and teriyaki- so good! The crunch is off the charts and stays stuck to the tofu - WOW! The Rueben was seasoned well and not too much dressing. The fishless filet was flavorful. The fries were perfectly fried and not soggy. Service was great and they asked us for our preferences, packaged perfectly to go in compostable containers!! The staff were super friendly and our order was ready in 10 minutes! Roy was so helpful in making recommendations and making sure we had what we needed. Wish we could have sat in the cute dining room but we had our dog in the car. Bean is a definite stop while in Charlotte and maybe when we are driving through since it's close to the Interstate.

    Cowboy burger
    Ashley R.

    Charlotte NC has one of our very favorites: @beanvegan I got the brunch bowl (homemade sausage, biscuit, potatoes, tofu scramble, carrot bacon, cheesy grits and jam) My boyfriend got a cowboy burger complete with onion rings and bbq sauce on top and fried pickles on the side. Don't miss the soft serve and the grocery snack section! I've seen poor reviews about the service but our service has been great each time. Friendly and fast. Doesn't look like much from the outside and not in the prettiest part of town but don't let that dissuade you from coming in for some of the best food ever. Also love the buffalo tofu!

    Carrot cake cupcakes
    Vivica R.

    Delicious cupcakes. Have gotten twice and it's absolutely fresh, moist and the icing is a hit too. Got first time while doing DoorDash delivery and stumbling upon it. I see now why it's so busy and as someone who is plant based it was definitely appreciated.

    Vegan Quesadilla

    I have loved this restaurant for years. The food is consistent for the most part. I have had the portabella bean bowl numerous times and it's always delicious. The mushroom has a wonderful flavor it's a wonderful meat alternative. I highly recommend you give it a try. When it comes to desserts I recommend you use caution. I can only recommend their carrot cake cupcakes they are tasty. I was trying to try something new and ordered the strawberry cake slice one for me and one for my children at 7 per slice I was disappointed. The slice was thin for the price but the taste was extremely sweet and dense. My two year old loves cake but this one he rolled it up in his paper plate and decided to toss it. Overall the food i have ordered through the years has made me a return customer. They also have a great brunch. I love their waffles!

    Cornbread
    John B.

    [Coronavirus review] I sometimes have a craving for bean-based dishes, but rarely do I have the chance to answer it with a bean-based restaurant. This one was open for in-person dining, but I wanted takeout. They have their own online ordering, which worked but was a bit of a hassle (and notably refused to allow me to tip for some reason). Food was ready very quickly as it probably took me less than 15 minutes from when I ordered to arrive and find it waiting. The location was easy to get to, but terrible to get out of. On a highway with people doing 60 coming around a bend you have to pull out and hope no one's coming. I have no idea why anyone decided to build anything here. The food promised bean-based vegan cuisine with a Southern touch, and it indeed delivered all of those things. A bowl based on red beans and rice was as hearty and satisfying as I'd hoped, and the Southern-style fried tofu on top had something that I think was ranch but was good whatever it was. A braised tofu salad yielded more beans and plenty of fresh crispness. Portion size was a strength; I wasn't starving, but it'll take some work to down that single salad and entree in even two meals. The menu has a lot of things I'm not a fan of; Daiya, jackfruit, cauliflower; but it seems like the things that I am interested in ordering, they can execute.

    I was looking for a vegan place to eat and this popped up. The place has a big sign off the highway so you can't miss it and its own parking lot. I walked in, to a southern greeting which was refreshing being from up north. I preordered so went to a cashier to pay and pick up my food. Like normal vegan places, the food takes a while to be made so I had a wait a little longer for it to be made. The price was similar to most vegan places which is not so cheap but will not break you. I paid $12. I ordered a "cheesesteak " and it came with a choice of a side. When I got to my room and tried the sandwich, I almost died. It was soooo good. It tasted like the real thing. I wish they had one up north because that would be my new spot.

    Just a sweet little update for my favorite restaurant in Charlotte, if not the entire Southern East…read moreCoast. On every visit to Charlotte, I stop here 2-3 times, whether it's to meet up with friends and colleagues for lunch, to grab a quite bite before evening plans, to spend happy hours and dinners on that delightful back patio or to pick up that insane vegan dessert I've been craving. I mean, can it get any better than a spread of vegan elote corn, nachos smothered with beans, seitan, guac/queso/crema or my new favorite, the crunch wrap with a glass of something icy cold (I usually get a glass of something sparkling at the back bar). Since my last review almost 5 years ago, they sadly removed the matcha cruffin (that I still can't get out of my head!) and added in an entire display of sugary/spicy/chocolatey greatness (I'm still kicking myself for being too late on my way to the airport to get that lemon bar I'd been eying or the pumpkin BUNDT CAKE, ffs. What is wrong with me?) The sweetest owners, the loveliest staff from front counter to back bar to food runners and bussers. I adore Oh My Soul with every ounce of my being.

    As many other reviewers have said, I really wanted to like this place but the overall experience…read morewas rough. Service was REALLY bad. You order and get your table number at the counter. Person taking our order was rude. Asked what he would recommend as a side given that we'd never been to the restaurant before. He just listed off all the sides and appeared annoyed by the question. We finished our order and he then cancels the tip screen and I didn't know why. He asks if I want a receipt and I say sure. Then I notice that they have an automatic "service charge" of 15% that isn't advertised anywhere in the restaurant. I'm not necessarily against restaurants doing this but it should be advertised. Also, you should have service if you're going to charge a "service charge." Our service consisted of a counter order and then someone who eventually brought out our food. Water was never even refilled. Vibe of everyone that worked there was angry and aggravated. Multiple people scowled at me walking through the dining room from the kitchen. One worker threw open the kitchen door obviously pissed about something. Everyone in the restaurant was waiting forever for their food and other tables would have one entree come out while the other person at the table waited another 15 minutes for their food. Food was nothing special. My wife liked her Mother Earth bowl which is why I'm giving two stars. My chicken sandwich was something out of a frozen box. Hush puppies and onion rings were standard. We only had water to drink. All of this cost us $54.20 total. Anymore this feels like a standard experience in an American restaurant unless you do someplace high end. Ok food, terrible value, terrible service, and junk fees. Like they're doing you a favor just being there. All of this for a restaurant that, as the walls show, is trying to convince you to become vegan. This won't do it guys. Do better if you really care about bringing people to your cause.

I tried it but it was just ok. Highly recommend giving out bigger straws b/c it was a headache sucking that shake through lol. I also would recommend using coconut milk instead of oat milk. It just has an aftertaste whereas coconut not so much. The best thing and the shocker for me and my non vegan friend, was the Carolina Hot dog. It left me screaming and then speechless. My friend even did a happy dance lol. We are contemplating taking another drive tonight before they close b/c I shared it with her as she was too nervous to get it, we want more lol. We both love hotdogs and I can't say that I've ever had a really good vegan one. This was it!!! And honestly can't tell it was vegan from the texture, to the chili, the special sauces, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! And the Philly cheesesteak came a very close second runner up. The bread stood up to the sauces. And they are saucey but I don't mind it at all. Sautéed peppers, onions, the protein...this was just good clean food and not too much processed. As a vegan chef (Mama Nicca's Homemade Things) and someone who loves to be creative in this vegan world of cooking, this truly was OUTSTANDING. I will probably return every time I'm in Charlotte.

The meal comes with rice and their vegetable of the day which happened to be collard greens that day. To finish the meal I ordered the housemade hibiscus tea. It took about 10-15 minutes or so for everything to be ready and it was brought out by one of the lovely owners (forgot to grab her name). She was so sweet and came back out to check on me mid meal. Everything was so good. I haven't had ribs in over a decade so that was such a nostalgic taste to me. It had the chargrill taste and everything and that sauce was so good! The "rib" meat had a great taste as well and I enjoyed the meaty texture. The fixins were all really good. The macaroni was nice and seasoned so were black eyed peas, collard greens, and rice. Truly tasted like a plate from an auntie's house. I'm already plotting my next trip to Charlotte so I can make my way back over here.

They even still have the 120 year old pews! If you ask your server, you are likely to hear the entire story of the place. It's pretty amazing. They recently received a Michelin recommendation and it's totally deserved. It's a buffet, but most of the hot food is actually served by a person which is something that I particularly appreciate. (I really don't like touching the handles of spoons that hundreds of people have touched.) Some of the stuff is self serve but not any of the hot dishes. Absolutely everything I tried was outstanding. Like everything. There are a few things that they consider "pass around" which means that they are brought over to you by a server at random intervals. For everything else, you just help yourself. I went with a friend of mine who has a deep appreciation for a southern food. He was absolutely amazed. Honestly, I can't think of a better place to have chosen to eat in a short time I had in Charlotte. I've attached a picture of the menu. I tried just about everything. I wasn't disappointed in a single thing, and I was completely wowed by many of them. The servers were wonderful. Very friendly and very willing to talk to us about the history and the food items that were there. Highest recommendation!

    What a great place this was. Best food hall I've ever been to. This was definitely a foodie…read moreexperience. I went to Botiwalla. I wrote a separate review for that one, which was out of your mind amazing, and when I come back, there are so many other places I have to try. There's an Italian place that makes noodles from scratch every day, so that's my goal for the next visit. My husband had a Cuban sandwich, and he said that was the best he's ever had. Everywhere there was great, comfortable seating with beautiful hanging boho plants that just gave a nice natural and calm touch to the environment.

As a New Yorker we have our share of markets/food halls and OH fits the familiar script, with a slightly smaller footprint than what I've experienced. What never seems to change is that securing seating can be a challenge because all spots are "prime" real estate and the abundance of choices is an indecisive person's nightmare. Nonetheless, to all the foodies at heart those are just minor details for mere mortals... lol. We managed to grab a larger enough table and everyone circled until we made our individual choices and then returned to our central meeting spot to break bread and indulge in all of our finds. We enjoyed several of the eateries we experienced and I was particularly intrigued by the plant store (albeit kinda pricey). Return is a no brainer especially for the places that were most memorable. Just A Note: Parking is not free, payment is required. Please not depending on the time of day it can be crowded so securing a spot will require patience.

    I'm an avid restaurant goer and often seek out vegan, vegetarian, or vegan friendly places in and…read morenear the Charlotte metro area. I had seen multiple social media ads about Romeo's Vegan Burgers so last night, Saturday around dusk and on my way home, I decided to stop in. There were about 3 diners inside and the only visible attendant was serving a drive-thru customer. The attendant didn't acknowledge me standing at the counter with any distinct greeting. Not expecting any immediate service, I stepped away to go wash my hands at the restroom. Restroom cleanliness sometimes is an indicator and I'd give this one a C minus. Dirty toilet, lukewarm faucet water, odor. Perhaps this made me wary however I decided to try the food. The attendant was unoccupied when I returned to the counter and did apologize for me having to wait earlier at my arrival. I ordered a simple black bean burger, tater tops and a lemonade. I noticed on the menu board that there was an additional fee to "upgrade" to an "all plant patty" that just seems odd at a vegan restaurant. The meal took about 15 minutes or so to prepare. Honestly, at the end of this meal there wasn't a stand-out moment for a vegan burger meal at the price of $21.00. I've prepared the same meal at my home for less. The lemonade is basic and perhaps processed, noticeably not "fresh". I read the other reviews before submitting mine. I suppose time of day, staff on hand and other factors influence the experience. My visit fell short of satisfying my expectations. Best of luck to this restaurateur and happy holidays.
