Majani Soulful Vegan Cuisine

I had been hearing lots of good reviews on the fried grits and have been wanting to try them forever. I finally got to tonight, and they are delicious (10/10, I’d get some of the marinara sauce on the side next time). I also got the jerk burger (7/10, no sauce on it but the flavor was on point), bbq cauliflower (10/10!!), oyster mushroom taco (9/10, so flavorful). I would highly recommend this place & I’m not even vegan. I will definitely be back.

I absolutely love the vibe of both the employees and the space! The hostess and cook were very personable & sweet.. both had amazing energy the entire time I dined inside. The music was a great bonus for my dining experience, too. It was literally just 2 employees, and it got very, very busy! I ordered stir fry, fried okra, and fried green tomatoes. I was soooo stuffed that I had to have the remainder of my food boxed up. The food portions were plentiful, that's for sure... It's worth every penny. I'm from STL and will definitely stop here every time I come in town. Thank you to the ladies who showed me what Majani Soulful Vegan Cuisine was all about. 🥲

Had a family dinner here, so yummy! The greens were everyone’s favorite, and I liked the Mac and cheese I got to taste off my brother’s plate. The cornbread is so yummy and taste like southern dressing- no butter needed! The salad that came with my beans and rice bowl was honestly my favorite of everything, the garlic dressing is delicious. Looking forward to coming back! It’s right off the metra so easy access to get to, plus street parking.

Listen...There's nothing like a good "home cooked" meal. The fact that I had so many gluten-free options to choose from is a HUGE plus. Don't sleep on the BBQ cauliflower. 😋 I wish I had placed a 2nd order to eat on the airplane. The ginger lemonade has a HEALTHY dose of ginger in it and it might put a little hair on your chest. Just a little. The sorrel is sooo refreshing. The red beans...❤️ Got me cooking some right now. The sweet potatoes were perfectly sweet with just the right amount of spice. The cornbread tastes like dressing. Which I think is clever. Knowing that he sources produce from local farmers is a big win. The service is top notch. The employees are very nice and accommodating. Knowing Tsadakeeyah was preparing my food just warmed my heart. My new favorite restaurant. I'll be back.

The food, the dessert, and the service were all 5 stars! I found this little gem on a whim with the family. Everyone enjoyed it! Being a wfpb vegan for years I’m always elated to find something as close as homemade as possible and this establishment was exactly what! Everything made from scratch and delicious.😋 This will be my go to on every visit to Chicago! Thank you!
