Restaurant, Meal delivery
Misleading, fake place. 1.There is no vegan restaurant called “Vegan in the Hood”.It is part of a larger non-vegan Afro-Carribean restaurant called Yumvillage.There is no separate menu for the vegan items, and presumably uses the same kitchen too. 2.Upon reaching there I was told they “ran out of” options and nothing advertised on their online menu is available. 3.Servers are inconsiderate and ignore people standing in line. 4.No online ordering, hours advertised are also fake, no parking or restrooms. Judging by the reviews, looks like most of them are fake too.Save your time and go elsewhere

We are sorry you had a bad experience with our restaurant.We are currently a Ghost Kitchen inside YumVillage.We are only able to keep a limited supply of items on hand.Near the end of the week we often run out of items.We do in fact use the same kitchen however our items are still prepared separate from YumVillage. As per the server unfortunately we have no control over that as they are employed by YumVillage.As per the menu we have a menu posted on Google, The counter at YumVillage, and our Facebook page.As per the review they are legitimate reviews from our previous patrons.As per the parking it is located in the rear of the building and there are restrooms on site if you had asked.As per the guests we have no control over their attitude.Again I am sorry you had a bad experience but I hope you try us again earlier in the week when we have more items. Regards, Dustin Vanderburg Co-Owner and Head Chef Vegan in the Hood LLC
This is NOT 100%VEGAN as they claim!! I wasted my time, gas, money and lunch on what I thought was 100%VEGAN CHICKEN AND WAFFLES. I’m so irritated right now I’ve never been more disgusted in my life.Instead of me getting some chicken shaped soy or jackfruit, I HAD AN ACTUAL PIECE OF FARM RAISED CHICKEN.This place isn’t right they lied and I want my money back.🤬🤬

This review is related to the restaurant YumVillage where we host our restaurant.We do not have Chicken and Waffles on our menu.We apologize for any confusion.Our food is only in the coolers and is 100% Vegan.It is a shared space with YumVillage and we are willing to refund your meal if you come back in.I am sorry you were confused by the menu.Our menu is only Vegan Gumbo, Vegan Chicken Salad Pasta and Vegan Crab Alfredo.
I went to there today to dine in.Owners seem like lovely people but the food appears to be packaged products.Tasted like frozen french fries from a grocery store that were fried as well as a hot dog (tofurkey hot dog) with a store bought wonder bread bun.We were told it would take 10 minutes to prepare.Please be honest about how long food will take.Would encourage owners to use more fresh ingredients and less reliance on packaged/ processed products.
