wow. What can I say about the wild cow? First off, it's good, but not great, but it is really good! I mean, I've eaten some vegan in my day, and when I can tell you is that this will leave you wanting more, if you know what I'm saying, hint, hint . And, I'm a straight guy, but a couple of those waiters are really attractive, that's all I'm saying! Anyway, it was good. The owner though? I can't tell if he/she/they/Xe are cool, or not, because I haven't met them !

Tried the French Quarter Dip and the Buffalo Grinder with Tofu. Both were excellent! Side veggies were really good too. Didn't care for the garlicky kale. Will be back!

Food was great once we got it. Our waiter seemed stoned and/or super apathetic. He forgot to put our order in and after 45 minutes of waiting came to us and said "there was a misfire and your order didn't get put in, what was it again?" He didn't apologize or own it at all which was super lame. He seemed to not even care that he totally screwed up and made us wait mad long for our dinner. After he finally put it in, I got my reuben and it was amazing. Super good. The shift supervisor Ally (I think that's her name) came to check on us after we were done and she was awesome and made up completely for the absent minded waiter. She gave us a discount and a free cookie and was super apologetic about it all. She made all the difference and is why I'm not giving them less stars. In the end the food was good (once we got it) and the boss made up for the kid dropping the ball, so I would go back again if I were to ever visit Nashville in the future.

This vegan restaurant is such a hidden gem! The vibe of this restaurant is great, its half indoor and half outdoor and is very spacious, but also has a cozy charm. The service here was great and the staff was very accommodating for allergies. I got the Buffalo Grinder with seitan and it was delicious! Tasted like a classic hoagie and the seitan was cooked perfectly. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a vegan, allergen-friendly spot in Nashville.

Always meh. I’ve been to the wild cow a handful of times since they opened their first location. I’ve never left feeling that satisfied quality wise. It’s kinda healthy I guess. Ingredients are general good quality but it’s usually not anything fancy or specialty. I think they just don’t know how to make good food. They were pretty much the only vegan game in town for a while. I think they built up a good reputation because enough vegans forgot what good restaurant food is supposed to taste like. I’ve been trying to add more vegan food into my diet again and hadn’t been out to eat in a while and was near by. I must have forgot my past experiences or kinda wanted to give it another chance because I want to support a local vegan business. Really disappointed in my choice. Same boring food and prices are higher. $4 for a topo Chico?!? I could go to the gas station literally down the street and get one for like $2. I got the Greek pita. Glad it’s not called a gyro because it does not taste like one other than the pita and olives. Tofu feta was crumbled tofu with some spices that just were not doing it. Several pieces of the seitan were burnt! Burnt seitan is basically burnt rubbery bread. Super bummed I decided to go, especially because there so many places nearby. If I wasn’t literally parked next to them I probably would’ve had gone somewhere else. Ugh.

Really good vegan restaurant that I'd recommend even to nonvegans! (I am not a vegan, but my friend took me here, and I LOVED IT). Their buffalo tofu and tempeh was so so good. Anything that has that added is a good meal.I also like the open concept of how they keep their garage door open and let the outside fresh air in.Vegetarian options: This place is completely vegan

We tried 4 different vegan restaurants during our stay in Nashville and this was our favorite by far. We started with Buffalo tempeh strips as an appetizer and it was the best tempeh recipe I’ve tried. The vegan ranch they served with it was so good I kept it to dip my sandwich in. I had the special of the day which was a chickpea salad patty melt and my partner had the French dip. Both were absolutely delectable. We also had a couple of delicious cocktails. The guy that waited on us was super friendly and chatted with us. If I’m ever in Nashville again this will be a must stop. After lunch there was several really cool boutique shops we shopped around in. Definitely recommend!

Could use some update on booth cushions and such; it’s been a while since we’ve been here and everything was absolutely delicious, fresh, and chill. Artichoke dip,, blt, soup of the day, lentil stew, chickpea salad all exceeded expectation. *Chef’s kiss we ate the soup and appetizer before I thought to photograph it:)Vegetarian options: All vegan

We got the Patty Melt and Caesar Salad with added Portabella Mushroom & Grilled Tofu . Not pictured is the Buffalo Seitan which was also so good! We were on a trip and aren't in the area or else would be going to Wild Cow on a regular basis. One of the best vegan restaurants I've been to!! The service was great as well and such a cozy ambiance with cow pictures all over

Had food catered for a small birthday party. It was amazing, delicious half the people there did not even know they were eating vegan, what a surprise when they all exclaimed how delicious it all was. My favorite was the Turtle Track Cake it was crazy delicious. Thank you Ryan for making our gathering extra special.
