Deluxe vegan food in funky setting!

Travelling through TN, we were thrilled to arrive at AVO, a shipping container with avocados painted all over. Rory was our waiter. Sooo patient and thorough. Explained everything. Crab cakes. Decaf chai, mushroom bourginon, big ass dumpling, mango and chocolate raw fluten free cheesecake. We floated outta there like it was Thanksgiving, so grateful. So happy! The staff had, for example, fishnets w bats and shorts, I saw pink hair and everyone was happy to be alive, in this gorgeous, gourmet, compassionate place! Fabuloso!

Pros: So many tasty vegan options, Gourmet and Delicious , Atmosphere

Cons: Small portions, Sometimes, a wait, Bit spendy

Upscale vegan

Nice atmosphere, with delicious all vegan menu. I had the arancini and a tomato bisque, saving room (I thought) for their signature avo chocolate tart. All were super rich and it was actually too much food. Everything was delicious. Husband got the kale Caesar, mushroom Bourgignon, a fall spice mocktail and blackberry cheesecake. Would order it all again!

Pros: Upscale vegan dining, Fast friendly service, Nice variety of options

Cons: None

Delicious!

Spring Rolls, Breakfast Burrito, and Cali Burger are all famous here but there are so many great offerings. Relaxed and fun atmosphere, great service from a very friendly staff, and a really nice outdoor patio.

This is where you should go if you want to spend a lot for meh. I had a caliburger that was okay & definitely what to get if you want LOTS of bread, the mac & cheez was blah.

Pros: All vegan, Cool atmosphere

Cons: Pricey

Inventive options, great atmosphere.

Loved the variety of offerings here at Avo. It was hard to choose just one thing. I got the big dumpling which lived up to its name and was very tasty.

Good good and very dog friendly!

I really like this place. Very nice ambience and they are very dog friendly. Food is well thought out. 4 stars because it’s a bit pricey.

good, fresh and reasonable price !!

Delicious lunch time there. We tried the kimchi spring rolls that were excellents and the raw zucchini pasta is fulfilling while not too complex mixed. With home made nuts cheese and pesto, big plate so good !!
The curry chick peas are a must try ! Many different herbal teas and other nice drinks.
Globally very satisfied with this place. A lot of parking and seating space can be inside and outside. Just next to CrossFit Nashville. Container style deco. Will come back for sure !
By the way, the address is not exact, ( at least with my gps) it’s opposite of the graffiti wall where big parking lot and container buildings are..

Fresh & Colorful

Great find across the street from our hotel. Cute little contain food/bar park with sand volleyball courts was a great place to relax and have a delicious meal. Avo offered indoor/outdoor dining, super fresh food with tons of menu options including raw meals, everything we ate was delicious and had great flavor. We loved the kimchi spring rolls and the pad thai, We also tried several of the deserts and they were all amazing. There were beautiful plants surrounding the dining area and the staff was super helpful too.

Pros: Tons of menu items, Raw food items, Clever cocktails

Cons: Doesn’t open until 4pm

Avo is great! They have wonderful seasonal menus. Always get the Kimchi Spring Rolls. Always. They have several raw options as well as cooked. Plenty of healthy options and not so healthy. They also have rotating cheesecake flavors that are always delicious. Highly recommend!

Pros: All vegan options, Great atmosphere, Seasonal menus

Cons: A little expensive, Parking isn't great

Great vibes, a bit pricey

The location was extremely cool, sharing outdoor space with sand bar which has sand volleyball. The servers and employees were very nice too. Had the green bowl and the raw pad Thai. Both were good (liked the peanut sauce on the pad Thai) but the pad Thai would really benefit from a protein source like edamame or tofu. The green bowl had good ingredients, but was light for $15, and nothing special. Definitely prefer a salad from Sweetgreen.

Pros: Great vibes, all vegan

Cons: Expensive and could use more protein

Light & Delicious

This is raw done right! While not everything here is served raw and cold, what we got went far beyond our expectations, considering what we’ve experienced in the past ordering raw. We got the Zucchini Noodles and Raw Pad Thai and loved them both. We also got some tap and canned beer that were great, but if you’re looking for a cocktail, I’d definitely point your toward the avocado margarita, it was perfection!

Pros: All vegan , Happy Hour

Sinful splurge, minus the sin

Avo was our introduction to vegan food in Nashville, and what an intro! I think it's safe to say I haven't had a better vegan burger, period. The lentil-walnut patty is a perfect hearty core, and the fixings they put on the Western and Cali burgers are portioned out well for maximum flavor and texture, while still being satisfyingly sloppy and saucy (because every good burger should be a little messy, right?). If you love Pad Thai but are often disappointed at the low ratio of veggies to noodles or the sickly-sweetness of the sauce, Avo's raw Pad Thai is just the answer. And the kimchi spring rolls? Hot. Damn. The mushroom bourguignon has classic rich umami flavor, with an extra portion of veggies. Never mind the avocado margarita or the cheesecake. The whole Avo experience tastes like a gut-busting splurge, yet doesn't leave you feeling any guilt or regret at all. Well, not unless you eat every menu item in one sitting, which I may attempt next time.

Update: New favorite is the CBD walnut brownie. Rich dark chocolate with the right amount of sweetness, crumbly chewy texture, and fudgy topping - utter, absolute perfection.

Pros: Raw and gluten-free options available, Healthy, Reasonable prices

The kimchi spring rolls with Thai peanut dipping sauce are ridiculously good and refreshingly creative. Excited to come back to try more food in the future.

Delicious!

Went for my birthday with my family.
Vegans and meat-eaters thought the food was delicious, and we can't wait to go back.

Even with the limited menu due to the way of the world at the moment, they're is something for everyone

Pros: Awesome options, delicious flavor!

Healthy and Delicious Food

I have eaten at Avo a few times, and they do not disappoint. The food is always fresh and the portion sizes are filling. The Thai peanut sauce on the Raw Pad Thai is incredibly flavorful. Not to be missed.

Nashville’s Best Food

Located in the heart of Nashville, just 5 minutes away from Centennial Park, or 6 from Capitol Hill, this was a perfect place to grab brunch!
My sister ordered the aptly named LGBT sandwich and fries while I had the brunch sandwich. Would I recommend it? Absolutely!
If the bun was house-made — I sure want the recipe! And if it was not, it sure tasted like it was! Melt-in-your-mouth goodness, and I haven’t even gone past the bread! JUST egg, roasted tomato, coconut American cheese, etc...
The cookies and cream cashew cheese cake was scrumptious, if a little too sweet for me.
The staff were absolutely delightful! Helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. They were very genuine, interesting, and conversational, too, when they didn’t have other customers to help.
I will be back to Nashville and I will be back to Avo!

Great vegan brunch

My husband had the vegan breakfast sandwich which was honestly the best we’ve ever had. I had the kale Caesar salad which was just ok, would probably get the green bowl instead next time. Fun environment with sand volleyball court
