Middle Eastern and Indian places will be your best bet.

There is a place called MJ's Cafe on Jefferson near Government that I think is vegetarian.

Good luck... Your best bet is to make your own honestly.

None of the veggie burgers around town are vegan.
Chelsea's has grilled veggies and couscous or you can get their grilled veggies on focaccia...hold the cheese!

I went to Zoe's not long ago and all I got was the hummus, I didn't see many other options.

Most thai/asian places use fish oil in most of their vegetarian dishes

Greek/Lebanese will have stuff for you.

As someone said, MJ's Cafe on Jefferson is a vegetarian cafe and they have a vegan sammich. Or you can get another of their sandwiches without cheese.

Magpie on Perkins also has vegan options.

I believe that La Madeline has a vegan soup on special thursday and saturday? Don't quote me on that.

Also, make sure when you ask the waiter/waitress that they are educated enough to know what vegan means. I can't tell you how many times I've been told something was vegan then making them double a triple check to discover that it's not.

Oh yeah, I'm that girl.

ETA: I catered a party and Mestizo's provided the food. The owner said if you come in and request something, they can fix it for you. Their food looked pretty delicious but most of it had cheese. If they make it to order, it can work.

and you can always make up your own meal if you know the types of things they carry. Like getting a sandwich with hummus, tomatoes mushrooms and cucumbers. Or ordering steamed vegetables and a portabella cap.

Sushi places will accommodate for you. Just stay away from the spicy mayo

That should hold true for anyone eating sushi, not just vegans.

Alas, there are a lot of morons out there who think raw fish covered in mayonnaise is delicious.

I don't touch the stuff, I say this because I ordered a veggie roll in Florida when I was on vacation and (although it was not listed on the menu) they snuck in the mayo I guess for flavor. I sent it back... after I had already had a bite.

There are a few good places in Nola for vegan if you're ever down here and looking for a spot to eat: Carmo, 13 Monaghan, Satsuma, Meals From the Heart Cafe, City Greens. Also I've noticed some viet joints offer vegan broth.

How strict are you? Like is honey off limits?

My friend is vegan and since a lot of people don't really understand all her limitations, she tells them she is lactose-intolerant and a vegetarian. Keeps most of the non-vegan stuff out of her food.

Bookmarked!

I'm not in Nola too often, but it would be fun to get away for a day to go enjoy a vegan meal. Will try these out! Thanks

Slightly off topic, but saw this and thought of this thread ... Foods that are surprisingly vegan Including Bac-O's and Oreos!
