Slutty Vegan

Famous in the vegan community for their risqué menu item names, Slutty Vegan serves up the ultimate plant-based comfort food. Opt for the One Night Stand (plant-based patty loaded with bacon, cheese, onion, lettuce, tomato, and Slut Sauce), or try a chicken sandwich with buffalo sauce, vegan ranch, and coleslaw.

Go Vegan Grill

The South is known for having delicious soul food, and Go Vegan Grill is no exception. Start your day with Southern style dishes like the shrimp & grits breakfast platter (soy-free and gluten-free), or make dinnertime delicious with the smothered chicken & gravy platter. Juicy vegan burgers and sandwiches are also available, like the A Town Funk Platter, made with two vegan burger patties, two layers of American cheese, two slices of bacon, grilled onions, jalapeños, lettuce, and tomato, topped with Funk Sauce and piled between two slices of Texas Toast—now that’s what we call a strong burger game!
