Wonderful Vegan Dining Experiences

by abeo

Do you want a dining experience that will leaving you SIMPLY appreciating vegetables? A visit to VeggieLand will definitely provide you with such! I have been dining in this wonderful restaurant since the early 1990s. I used to drive from Cobb Pkwy at lunchtime to get their sweet potatoe fries and veggie burger! When I left the ATL for a few years, every visit back HOME included at least one trip to Veggieland! Now I drive from downtown ATL to buckhead at least twice a week! The food is fabulous. You can cleanly tasted the vegetables, because there is no EXCESSIVE seasoning! The variety in entrees does not allow one to become bored easily, and the service is SUPER! Happy has never forgotten my name!!!!!! IT IS A WONDERFUL DINING EXPERIENCE!

• Pros: truly vegan, service is TOP NOTCH
• Cons: small, can get crowded on a lovely day!

anticipation to return awaits

by greenfish33

My mom, sis, and I found ourselves wandering aimlessly around Buckhead on our first visit. We had researched and dined at a few upscale restaurants with good reviews, yet when we spontaneously ate at Veggieland, a hidden treasure in my eyes, we enjoyed ourselves and the food much more than the other places. The atmosphere is very comfortable and relaxed...i was surprised we were the only customers at the time, as the quality and taste of the food are amazing. This is one place in Atlanta of which I anticipate another dining experience. Although my memories aren't recent or vivid, I just remember an amazing dessert and amiable staff. I will be returning to Atlanta in a couple weeks and assure you that this will be one of my first stops.

Vegetarian/Vegan delight in the heart of Buckhead

A vegetarian/vegan delight in the heart of Buckhead! Everything my husband and I have tried has been wonderful. And it is always fresh tasting. The prices are very reasonable and the service is excellent. Happy and Marie make you feel welcome every time you walk through the door. Save room for one of their delicious vegan desserts!

• Pros: great service, easy parking

Reliable vegan food thrives in the heart of the Buckhead.

The Scene
Veggieland has carved a place for itself in between the enormous copper-plated fish sculpture of the Atlanta Fish Market and the raucous music of a neighboring pool hall. Lunch is the big meal here, drawing a crowd that ranges from ladies who nibble to Midtown boys and the occasional Buckhead businessman still woozy from the night before. Service is scrupulously attentive.

The Food
Varied and full of surprises, this vegan menu offers everything from Mexican food to Asian food, with traditional vegetable dishes showing up on the same page as faux duck. The vegetable dishes are the safest bet. An eggplant stir fry is fresh and bursting with flavor. The Western sandwich with its faux bacon is a minor soybean miracle. For dessert, try the tofu cheesecake. It tastes nothing like cheesecake, but it's amazingly good.

Where's the spice?

by SueOstermann_Citysearch

There's so much to like about Veggieland. The servers are attentive and super friendly; the menu is large and full of healthy options. But the food would benefit from more creative seasonings. The veggie burger is crispy and nutty, though lacking in much flavor. The veggie dog comes on a yummy and crispy whole wheat bun, but the vegetarian chili on top is positively bland.

• Pros: inexpensive, healthy

Top Lunch Spot

by GingerMassey_Citysearch

Some of the nicest servers Ive encountered in an Atlanta restaurant. Flavorful vegetarian menu that includes burritos, chili and noodle bowls. The veggie burger is superb. Outdoor tables make this a great lunch spot on a nice day. And you dont return to work in a coma.
