Lives up to the hype

Had such a good experience here! The queso is really something else. My omnivore friend said it was some of the best queso dip she’s ever had. Lovely service and I also appreciate the thoughtful NA options. Hope to make it back while in town.

Always great

I’ve been like once a month the past few months. Honestly amazing. I’m not a big fan of the appetizers though. I have tree nut allergies and unfortunately a lot of nut based ingredients. But the menus are marked and they are very accommodating.

Ps if you enjoy mezcal try the mezcal passport.

La Semilla

Menu was concise and to the point. Loved the queso and sauces. The staff was friendly, and environment was a nice vibe. Flavorful dishes with amazing textures.

Great flavor

So many unique options! We got so much food! The marinated carrots were incredible, the queso…wow, crunch wrap was delightful. My friends loved the beans, I thought they were just ok, but I will say they had a lot of flavor, tacos were great too. The Cubano seemed pretty plain which was a let down because it was the first time I could have one. Oh my goodness and then the desserts! Both were amazing! Service was great and the ambiance was just lovely

Good eats

Good vegan latin food. Food tasted very fresh. Wasn't the best vegan latin food that I've had, but it was good enough.

Really good

The cubano sandwich was really good. The queso was a little spicy for me but the Al Pastor Tacos were very spicy. The apple empanada with ice cream was the best thing we had. The service was great.

Unique vegan tapas and cocktails

Wide selection of vegan apps, tapas, and entrees. Everything I tried was great, especially the fried green tomatoes!

Delicious

Absolutely delicious elevated vegan food with a Latin flair. The fried green tomatoes, carne asada tacos, Cubano sandwich, and peach empanada were all top-notch. My omni husband also loved it and is excited to go back.

EAT THIS!!

Well worth a trip! They serve smaller portions, many items are cheaper than you’d expect from a fully vegan restaurant, so you can try a few things. Both types of taco and the Cubano sandwich were all excellent! The queso was great too, and I am generally not a fan of cheese.
The food all came out so quickly that we were in and out very quickly, I actually wished that it all took longer! Maybe enjoy some drinks or something before ordering if you want to take your time.

Pros: Lots of options , Friendly and knowledgeable staff , Great atmosphere

Cons: I didn’t want to leave!

Perfection

This place wins on taste, vibes, and friendliness. The food is phenomenal, the staff are friendly and very helpful and don’t judge you if you say Cubano like a gringo, and the decor is sublime. 10/10 recommend and will be coming back.

Pros: Delicious/seasonal food, . Romantic vibey elevated atmosphere , Kind and knowledgeable staff

Cons: A little expensive on a few dishes

Good food

The atmosphere is short of fine dining. The service was meaning to be helpful, but the server couldn't get a lot of things right. The food was good and ample.

Pros: Food, Attitude, Prices

Cons: Location, Atmosphere

#1 Vegan restaurant in Atlanta

If you’re passing through this is the must stop vegan restaurant of Atlanta. Local produce and in house made seitan. It’s by far the best.

Charming Ambiance, Great Food, and Welcoming Staff

La Semilla offers great food, welcoming and friendly staff, and a good ambiance. They feature a nice selection of wines and the restaurant is adorned with lots of plants, adding to its charm. Their Taco Tuesday is a fantastic opportunity to sample their dishes. Additionally, they offer validated parking, which is a convenient bonus.

Hmmm

The reviews on this place are outstanding so I had to try it… the food is definitely good but not so great that I’d come back. I had to add a pinch of sea salt to bring out the flavors more.

Pros: Tacos are good, Dessert is cute with the ice cream, Very nice ambiance

Cons: The lions mane steak taste like steak fat.

As a Native Miami Vegan This is Truly a Gem

As a native Miamian, trust me when I say I can smell good Cuban food from a mile away. I also know that as a vegan that moved to Atlanta, my choices are pretty limited. La Semilla exceeded my expectations -- the food is delicious, the vibe is awesome & this place is in the heart of Reynoldstown. The vegan Bistec de Palomilla blew me away -- it tasted like home. I have 1 very minor gripe, however. As a native Miamian who is used to good Cuban food at amazing prices, going to a fancy spot & paying double what I would pay at Versailles, Casavana or Vegan Cuban Cuisine is def different. It's not so expensive where it will break the bank, however, and it's very much worth every penny.

Absolutely fantastic

Had a great meal here! The yuca and queso starter was incredible, and our entrees were as well. I got the mushroom steak and my partner got the enmolades. Both were so good I'm writing this review a week after our dinner because I'm still thinking about it, lol! Highly recommend.

Pros: Delicious menu , Attentive waitstaff , Warm environment

Cons: Expensive (worth it)

Great food, great service

I went here for my birthday with my husband (vegan) and 2 friends (not vegan) and everything was great! My friends were nervous but pleasantly surprised at how much they enjoyed all the food. Between all of us we tried the croquettes, empanadas, yuca con queso, esquites, al pastor tacos, crunch wrap, and the lion’s mane steak. EVERYTHING was delicious and we all cleaned our plates. Don’t remember the name of my drink but it was also very good.

Also, our server was very friendly and knowledgeable.

This was a great dinner and I will definitely be back.

Pros: Food was delicious and tasty, Drinks were very well-made, Service was great

Great food, drinks & service

Met a group of friends for dinner here & had a great experience. The staff was very friendly & knowledgable. The cocktails were good and the food was better, especially the queso. The tacos were a bit greasy for my liking, but the flavors were excellent.

Nice atmosphere- amazing food

Really good food and amazing atmosphere. The staff is really helpful and nice. Definitely going back asap. I could say everything on the menu is great but I especially loved the Yuca con Queso, the Croquetas and the Cubarrito. Even our Non- Vegan friends were amazed by the Carne Asada Taco #Veganuary

Pros: Drinks selection, Yuca con Queso, Cubarrito
