Cashew - Vegan restaurant in Chattanooga - 149 River St, USA

We ate here for my birthday and we had the sweetest waitress, her recommendations were spot on. She flagged my table for a gluten allergy and they made substitutions so I was able to order what I really wanted. We got the jack fruit nachos for an appetizer and OMG they were just like a loaded bbq nacho plate. AMAZING flavor. The bbq sauce was out of this world. Then we got the meatball sliders and the marinara sauce with the meatballs and the cashew cheese… incredible. The texture of the meatballs was so good and the fact that they are house made was AMAZING. We don’t eat Impossible or Beyond brands so having truly plant based meals was SUCH a treat. My husband got the chili mac as a side and ordered more. He loved it. And my son got the chili dog and absolutely loved it. My jack fruit bbq sandwich was phenomenal. Best bbq I’ve ever had. And the garlicky kale… so full of flavor! I ordered the cashew salad to go and my son and I ate that later and it was amazing also! The sprouts with the honey mustard make the salad 👏 And don’t get me started on the GF desserts. The donuts, PB cookies and pana cotta were so delicious and loaded with flavor. Being able to order anything on the menu as a vegan was so much fun. We can’t wait to go back!

We are at Cashew about a week ago. We ordered a Philly cheese steak with salad, chorizo burrito with chili mac. Both were tasty but I think the Philly cheese steak was the best. Cashew is now on our list of favorite restaurants.

As first time visitors and travelers, we will definitely be coming here again on our way down south! We love a PLANT-based vegan shop that doesn't rely on just meat / cheese vegan items like Daiya or Beyond Beef. The atmosphere was calm and inviting. Lots of greenery and wooden items. Very natural. The person that helped us was kind in suggesting items and we ended up getting the Southwest Sweet Potato and the Chili Nachos with garlicy kale salad. We did not try the desserts but I had my eye on a few of them 😩 The food was delicious! I didn't even eat mine hot because I was driving and I still enjoyed it. I'm actually deciding on making my version of the sweet potato meal at home. This is what a good restaurant does is inspire people!

We stopped in about 20 minutes before closing but most of the staff was really kind and didn’t rush us through the meal. Ordered tots to start. Unfortunately they weren’t fresh, but I understand since they were close to closing. The jackfruit nachos were recommended by our waitress and they were SO delicious. It was definitely enough food for two people. My husband got the veggie plate and he said it was fine, not amazing. They were closing so we got a couple of discounted cake donuts for breakfast the next morning and they were yummy!

We were in Chattanooga for 5 days, We went to Cashew 3 times. 1st visit - hubby had the shrimp taco special with a side of chicken rice soup while I had jackfruit nachos. Shrimp and the nachos were delicious. I see why the nachos are a popular dish. I couldn't stop eating them. The soup was the best we've ever had. 2nd visit - Hubby had the chicken salad wrap with a side Thai Sweet Potato. I had the jackfruit tacos & a side of Mac & Cheese. They were all delicious. The best Mac & Cheese I ever had. The jackfruit tacos were out of this world. The chicken salad wrap was so good that we're going back tomorrow for more. 3rd visit we got the Thai Sweet Potato and the Mac & Cheese. Cashew didn't disappoint! Service was excellent at every visit. The atmosphere was so inviting. Too full for dessert, but they looked awesome.

Always love going to cashew for the daily specials, when I went last time it was a crunch wrap and amazing! My wife hade her usual Philly cheese steak and it’s always good. The restaurant is always clean and the staff is friendly with much of a wait even when they are busy. If you are vegan or not cashew is always worth it.

I originally was not going to come here, but I am so happy that I did. I ordered the BBQ nachos and they were absolutely delicious. Typically nachos are drenched in sauce and overloaded with toppings that you feel gross after eating it, but these nachos were healthy and didn't leave me feeling bogged down. The portion was great too, I ate half and took the other half to go. I want to give a shout out to my server Jamie (sp?) they were extremely friendly and helpful. I hope you enjoy that concert in September! You do have to pay for parking in this area, however the rates are reasonable and there was ample parking at least at the time I was there; just after 12pm. I visited again and tried the Chorizo burrito which I highly recommend. I also got a side of their cashew Mac and Cheese which was kind of dry and so I was not a huge fan.

Excellent Buffalo Chicken Nachos for a really reasonable price! My wife had the Buffalo Vegan Chicken Wrap with Mac and Cheese and I would also highly recommend those to anyone who visits! The decor is a natural modern feel which really compliments the vegan style of food. The staff was friendly, considerate and prompt. Will definitely be returning!
