    Peanut kale salad-I ordered it for my side and it proved to be delicious.
    Susan W.

    I have never had a bad dish here. Vegetarian or not everything has been absolutely delicious!!!! The 3 of us could easily choose our appetizer. IT IS A MUST HAVE!!!!! A shareable platter of garlic bread, vegan basil-cashew pesto, fresh tomato-basil relish, Kalamata olive tapenade and choice of sesame-crusted Goat cheese or house-made almond 'cheese' (Order with almond cheese to be vegan; Substitute gluten-free garlic bread to be gluten free). SERIOUSLY PEOPLE-IT'S A MUST!!! Unlike my sweet sister I try something different every time we come. The three of us had different meals last night. I had a cup of white bean and kale soup. It had diced carrots, onion, celery and sweet potatoes in a delicious broth. So savory and warm, the kale had obviously been rubbed and was as tender as could be. I ordered another appetizer instead of a full meal. I had the General Tso's fresh Cauliflower with a very light tempura batter sprinkled with sesame seeds in a sweet and sour chili sauce-It was the right amount of heat and I found it just right in terms of quantity for my dinner. My sister had the Taco Salad-which she raves about. I have yet to try it, but it looks delicious. Ingredients include; Romaine, fresh corn salsa, black beans, sweet potatoes, avocado, pumpkin seeds, and corn chips, with your choice of Chihuahua cheese or vegan mozzarella, and your choice of sour cream or vegan cucumber ranch, with house made salsa on the side (Choose vegan mozzarella and cucumber ranch to be vegan, Gluten free.) My brother-in-law was the smartest one of all of us as he ordered the restaurant week meal which included appetizer main course, salad & dessert! I'll post the restaurant week menu below. It was fabulous. since it was still happy hour I ordered a Mocktail- Iced Ginger Spritzer Ginger, lemon, agave and soda, on ice. Wow- super ginger forward. He also had a Mocktail: A Solar Blast containing Orange, grapefruit, lime and ginger, on ice. (Mmmmmm-refreshing!) He had the white bean & kale cup of soup. He chose the Gomadore Udon -a beautiful bowl. Brown rice and Udon noodles in a mushroom broth. Silky tofu, mung bean sprouts, carrots, zucchini, green onion and kale. Veggies blanched but still crisp. What a great entrée for a below 0° day. It was finished with a rich sesame Gomodore Sauce. There was a farro grain salad with it. His dessert was a Lavender Lemon Bar which he described as heavenly. No doubt about it- this was an exquisite meal. Our server was great. He stayed on top of everything without being intrusive. The ambience here is subtle and casual. Nice long bar area and plenty of dining space. We called ahead as they will add you to a wait list and we would highly encourage that you do the same. This is a well loved restaurant that has been here nearly forever!!!! Do yourself a favor -if you are in A2 go to the west side and dine here!!

    Hummus Nirvana appetizer

    We had the Hummus Nirvana and California Scramble with Tofu. Both dishes were delicious!

    Large inside with plenty of tables.

    My first time here. Apparently they used to be downtown and moved due to high prices downtown. My first impression walking in, extremely clean and comfortable. Alex was our waitress, it's easy to see how much she enjoys her job. Very personable. I ordered the pizza sandwich with a side of kale salad. It turned out to be amazing!

    Great vegetarian/vegan spot with tons of options. They focus on making good food--not fake meat--which is refreshing. Comfortable, easy place to sit and enjoy a meal. Ann Arbor has been a longtime hub for vegetarian dining, and this place fits right in.

    Ben H.

    Love it. One of the best vegan friendly restaurants I've ever dined in. Service, ambiance, food, presentation etc - five stars! Price is average for the Ann Arbor area.. food is fresh, creative, incentive, tasty and original.. presentation is five stars.. Their brunch items are amazing and the desserts are something special.. they do have a very nice full service bar, too, with amazing drink specials and unique cocktail options! Hands down my new fave restaurant in the area.

    The service was fantastic. The employees were super kind even though I arrived within a half hour of closing, I was in and out within 45 minutes and it was perfect. The food was delicious, I was a fan of it all. The restaurant is really cute and well kept. I really look forward to trying more items from their menu soon!

    White bean and Kale Soup
    Max H.

    Great spot in Ann Arbor. Interior vibe is really unique, and menu had a ton of choices. Bartender gave a good run down of the menu and was quite helpful. Absolutely will come back next time I'm in town! 10/10 would recommend.

    farro bowl with subbed quinoa instead of farro and tofu added and a side of the thousand island. 100/100 so good.
    Raagini Y.

    Decent service ok ambiance and exceptional food!! The waitress recommended that I get the tofu instead of the tempeh and I'm so grateful that I listened. There was a substantial portion of tofu, and I dumped it onto my salad. I was able to substitute out the farro and add quinoa instead The combination of Apple, roasted sweet, potato, goat cheese, tofu, and the dressing was just incredible and so Fall. Hearty portion too. I would recommend everybody try it.

    Chargrilled Vegetable & Almond Cheese Salad
    Michelle S.

    The food is fabulous! Service was good. The restaurant is conveniently located with lots of parking. It is a bit loud (or maybe it was the table behind us, not sure!) The roasted beet and goat cheese ravioli was a daily special - I think they should add it to their regular menu! It was SO delicious! The ravioli was amply filled and the pasta was pretty perfectly cooked. The sauce was a shallot-chive cream sauce which was balanced and full of flavor. The taco salad had a lot of components; it's a bit messy, but super tasty! The guacamole is top notch. The grilled veggie salad was as expected. The kids quesadilla and fries were enjoyed by the little one! I love that they're vegan or vegetarian and can alter most dishes to accommodate your choice. They also have quite a few gluten free options. Definitely worth checking out!

    Tempeh Reuben Sandwich, Yam Fries + Vegan Dipping Sauce
    Linda I.

    I'm not vegetarian or vegan, but love that this option is around for tasty veg food! It has a nice interior and ambiance for a sit down meal - solo, with friends, on a date, it'd all work. Today I went in for a quick lunch and got their Tempeh Reuben with came with a pickle spear and side of choice. I got the Yam Fries w/Vegan Spicy Mayo sauce. All were great! The yam fries were hot and fresh, with the perfect amount of crisp on the outside. The Reuben was melty and flavorful. I got it with regular cheese but there's the option to get vegan cheese instead. The bottom piece of bread did get a bit soggy over the course of the meal, but that's minor. Overall it was a filling lunch. Could probably be split between 2 friends. 4 stars instead of 5 just because in prior experiences coming here with friends, seems like sometimes the dishes can be a little hit or miss depending on what you get.

    My favorite vegetarian restaurant in the area. There are also a ton of vegan options as well, or dishes that you can modify to be vegan! Even if you aren't veggie, there's a lot of options that aren't tofu and lentils. They also have specials that they change out often, so there's always something new! One of the best parts of this place is the parking- usually Ann Arbor parking is a nightmare but at Seva's there's a huge lot. It's also a large restaurant, so I've never had to wait for a table. They're also super accommodating when we took my nephew with us who was a baby.

    Food was WAY overpriced for what it was. I mean, for my group of 4 the bill was over $150. Read the menu before you go

    Chela's is so much more than it appears at first. The front is humble. When you enter, everything…read moreappears casual...so casual that we weren't sure what to do at first. Take a seat anywhere you like; we chose to sit at the bar. This is a well-equipped bar for such a casual setting: Dos Equis, Modelo, Bell's, and Sierra Rose hard cider. Waaaaay better than Chi-Chis (and any real Mexican restaurant I can think of, too). And, my wife ordered a margarita, and she loved it. Best of all, the price was very reasonable: $17 after tip for the margarita and a large Dos Equis. Food orders are placed at a separate counter, and they are ready quickly. A single fish taco is a good size, and only costs $4.75. The daily special is $10.29, and includes two tacos, rice, and beans, with a small up charge for the fish tacos. I feel like I've traveled back in time to the last century with these prices. The fish tacos are outstanding. The fish is freshly prepared, and not fried. You will want to get more than one to make it a meal, and the rice and beans in the combo are a nice complement. The rice could have used more seasoning, but this is easily corrected by mixing in some salsa. This is truly a wonderful find.

    Shoutout to my friend and fellow foodie Tiffany for always being down to try a new spot together!…read moreWe did a double date at El Harissa recently and it's my favorite kind of spot - welcoming and warm, with delicious food, and kind, patient employees. The cafe is a few tables inside of the market/deli, with a lot of takeout happening but I love that they offer dining in as they heat everything up for you and it's all presented very nicely. We ordered a ton of things: harissa dip, hummus, pita, spice roasted cauliflower, tabbouleh, lasagne verde, chicken tagine, and gelato. I loved that the menu indicates which menu items have a smaller carbon footprint - and we happened to be dining there on Earth Day! The food was all flavorful and the perfect temperature, which I appreciated. My favorites were the harissa dip, tabbouleh, and the lasagne verde. The chicken tagine was very good, and we enjoyed the leftovers the next day. The spice roasted cauliflower left us wanting it to be a bit more crispy, but it was a nice side. The gelato is delicious - it's made by Palazzolo's but El Harissa provides them with the unique ingredients for their specialty flavors. They were out of some but we got to sample several. We ended up with the roasted pistachio gelato and the apricot peach cardamom. The texture of the gelato was perfectly creamy and the flavors were strong. The market has lots of great items to buy: chips, tunisian olive wood pieces, spices, etc. I'm so glad we sought out this spot and can't wait to get more of their food!

    Finally got to try El Harissa with Yelper Katy C and our SOs! It's fast casual style - where you…read moreorder at the counter and they bring your food to you. Had the: *Spice Roasted Cauliflower (Crispy cauliflower florets coated and baked in rice and chickpea flour and our North African spice blend. Served with Harissa Dip) Small/1-2 Portion - $11): A little soggier than I'd like but the flavors were good! I also like the harissa dip it came with! *Small Merguez Meatballs (Inspired by the Maghrebi sausage, our spiced lamb and beef meatballs are hand-rolled with onions and herbs and coated with a thick tomato sauce. Served with saffron rice or couscous - small portion came with 3 for $10): For meatballs that included lamb - it wasn't gamey at all and very tasty! I picked cous cous for my side. *Chicken Chermoula (Brined, seared, then baked to capture all of its flavor, our crowd-favorite chicken is juicy and delicious. Served over rice with our herby, garlicky, lemony Chermoula Sauce - Double Portion - $18): Our main entree to share. The lemony chermoula sauce was delish. Chicken was perfectly cooked - not dry at all! Mujadara Rice (A Levantine staple of spiced green lentils and rice. Ours is adorned with carefully caramelized golden onions for a touch of savory-sweetness - small for $8) - SO tasty! I could eat this on its own. Maghrebi Chili (Smoky and spicy. Ground beef seasoned with Harissa spices and slowly cooked with chickpeas, lentils, black beans, peppers, and loads of vegetables - Small/Pint - $9.50) - FIBER CITY! Flavors were really good! We also had SO much gelato - they basically let us sample all of them. ended up with the pistachio and tiramisu. I'll be back - especially for a salad with their wonderful chicken - seems like a great healthy option!
