I was skeptical at first in arriving to the restaurant as the parking situation is not the best. The restaurant is more of a pickup food place than a restaurant as it only has 3 small tables. They have a lot of different food choices to choose from which made it hard to pick a good dinner. I decided on the Glass Noodle Stir Fry special for dinner. It was very good and the wait wasn't awful but the staffing is not very high based on the small kitchen so you will order and wait about 20 minutes for the food. I would highly recommend trying the desserts in the fridge as we tried a slice of vegan chocolate cake which was delicious.

Friends recommended this restaurant for year but I didn't really consider it because I'm not vegan. I was missing out. 2 weeks ago I tried the Philly and I've had it 4 times since.nit is so good, perfectly prepared and the banana peppers hive it the perfect boost. I like mine without the ketchup but it is always perfect any way they serve it. Always get the house salad too. I save half for the next day and it stays fresh. The balsamic dressing is tasty. For the taste, quality, and dietary needs, this is a 5 out of 5! Missing a few big bites because i couldn't wait!

My boyfriend and I are vegan, and have found it incredibly difficult to find quick, inexpensive vegan food in the NKY/Cincy area. Loving Hut solved this problem for us! We order takeout from here about twice per month, and we have never been disappointed!! This hidden gem has a cute little dine in area, and the staff is always nice and talkative. The beyond philly and the buffalo wrap are our go-to's, and if we're feeling crazy, the mexican wrap, spring rolls, and assortment of vegan cakes/desserts are incredible as well!! 10/10 recommend!

I was looking for good vegan food in Cincinnati and this spot did not disappoint. The food was excellent. I got the cheesesteak, Mac and cheese, BBQ wrap, and carrot cake. The cheesesteak and carrot cake were especially great. Loving hut closes at 7pm on Monday-Saturday and is not open on Sunday. There also isn't much in door seating (probably 4 seats available), so it looks like most of the store is carry out. I recommend calling in ahead of time because the food sometimes can be a 20-30 min wait. All together I really liked is restaurant and I know I'll be coming back.

Food is fresh and there are many healthy options, including gluten-free and raw. This is an Americanized Loving Hut, so if you're looking for those favorites like Spicy ChaCha, Noble Broccoli, and other Asian inspired deliciousness, you'll be disappointed, as was I. Raw Taco Salad - Anything with the word taco in it should be amazing. Point blank. Period. This was underwhelming. The salad part was a spring mixture with iceberg lettuce, carrots, and avocado added. As always, I omitted the cucumbers and tomatoes. The raw - it pains me to say this- "taco" meat fell short of flavor. The spicy cashew nacho cheese attempted to save this dish, but could not overpower the sea of bland beneath it. This was basically crunchy lettuce. Veggie Rice - All that missing flavor from the raw taco salad was injected into this dish. My first visit was during lent and I was eating no gluten, so I ordered this without any protein, making it GF. It was delicious! Flavorful jasmine rice topped with tons of broccoli (my fav!), carrots, and onions, all seasoned and sautéed to perfection. Then there's a Vietnamese sauce they add to seal the deal. Simple, yet remarkable. I returned after lent and tried this with udon noodles and with the protein, which is Gardein Chik'n strips. I preferred it without the protein. The noodles were ok, but it faired best with the rice. I also tried their desserts after lent. The chocolate chip cookie and zucchini bread. Both were very good. I didn't frequent them as much as I would have had they been a traditional Loving Hut. That being said, this is still an awesome place for healthy, vegan, allergen-free, and/or raw meals. They even offer comfort foods like burgers (Beyond Meat and Impossible) and brats. Being that this is Cincinnati, it's pretty awesome that they have a Loving Hut to begin with. Not all major cities are so lucky. (There is a LH location in Columbus, whose menu features some of the traditional favorites, but they were temporarily closed due to COVID-19.)

This place is a vegan's heaven! It has all the entries that meat-eaters get, but plant-based. The zucchini bread was delicious as well and I got a kombucha with my meal. The ambiance is great as well.

Where do I even start? It honestly tastes better than some Mac and cheese I've had. I don't know how they got it creamy and delicious and yet still vegan, but I'm a fan! The potato salad was also a yummy win for me. Stumbling on this restaurant was a pleasant surprise. Definitely check it out!

Only thing is I wish they could make it gluten free. I got the Mira bowl in a kid size portion and had boiled eggs as an add on. Perfect portion!

Nothing was too sweet and I enjoyed everything. The inside had a nice airy feel to it.

Being visitor from VA Beach, I asked what's the recommended dish, the server suggested omelette. But I wasn't in the mood for omelette so I saw shakshuka. I tried their Green Goddess version that has spinach (instead of tomato sauce) and feta. The food is a solid 3. I also ordered the Dubai Chocolate latte. It was a 3 as you taste more the milk than the chocolate syrup. I also got their chocolate chip banana bread.

One evening while at Fretboard for trivia, I was craving a wrap. I noticed this place had one on…read morethe menu, so I decided to give it a go! I got the avocado bliss wrap with a side of sweet potatoes. While I was excited for my order, I'll preface that it was a bit pricey compared to other options in The Gatherall. The wrap itself was good, but came out cold which I wasn't expecting. It still tasted good, but with the tofu, I was expecting a heated wrap. All the flavors on it blended well though, so overall I enjoyed it. The sweet potatoes were great! Roasted just the way I like them. Unfortunately though, I won't be getting them again, as they are $3 for a small portion, which is just too steep to do often on top of a $15 wrap. All in all, I enjoyed my meal and would try other option, but I'd probably skip the fancy side in the future.

Feeling hungry we thought the nachos topped with veggie chili would be delicious and filling. The order took awhile. When ready, you get a text message. The chips tasted stale and it felt like just a few spoonfuls of chili on the top layer of chips. Everything below the top few chips was dry. I would never order this. You're better off just having chili. The two stars are for the folks at the counter who smiled & were friendly. However the nachos were a miss.
