I've had the joy of experiencing Vegan Chula in so many ways—at vegan festivals, catered events, holiday pickup orders, and now at their permanent residency at 51 & Tel on Saturdays and Sundays. No matter the setting, the food is consistently incredible. Whether you're vegan or not, Vegan Chula's dishes are fresh, flavorful, creative, and clearly made with love. I highly recommend the poblano mac & cheese—it's a must-try—but honestly, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. When you stop by, be sure to say hi to Chef Danielle. She's as warm and welcoming as her food, and she'll be so happy you came!

Absolutely exceptional vegan food. I’m not vegan myself but this is the place I go to when I’m out with a group and we need to accommodate a couple vegan or vegetarian diets—EVERYONE (vegan or not) always ends up raving about it—I seriously can’t believe it’s vegan (especially that mac and cheese!). I’m so glad I now know where to find Vegan Chula on the regular and Danielle, the chef and owner, was able to find the sweetest spot at 51&Tel so that you can settle in on the patio enjoy a delicious drink with a bomb meal (indoor or outdoor seating available!). Vegan Chula never disappoints. I love that the menu is small bites so that I can always order one of everything. The chef’s creativity shines through every dish with flavor combinations that are truly *chefs kiss*.

Tried Vegan Chula at a few pop up events over the last couple years and thought it was delicious, so I was very happy to find out they’d be at 51st and Tel regularly!! Great back patio, yummy drinks, delicious food!

Stumbled on this vegan pop-up at 51st & Telegraph and it honestly blew me away. The best vegan food I’ve had, but it’s just bomb and delicious, vegan or not. The seitan tacos and chick’n fried tofu were unreal, and I’m fully obsessed with the hot honee. Everything’s made from scratch and packed with flavor. The patio is such a cute spot too! It’s perfect for a twinkly date night or chill evening with friends. Chill vibe, really nice owner. You can even bring your toddler with you for happy hour. Definitely coming back.
