Order online: https://foodhisattvacafe.square.site/

Foodhisattva (pronunciation: food-duh-suht-vuh), a combination of the word "food" and the Buddhist term "bodhisattva", began as a series of vegan pop-up restaurants on the east side of Cleveland in 2014. In 2019, we opened our cafe in our neighborhood, the Cedar-Taylor district of Cleveland Heights Ohio. Our goal is to contribute to the reduction of suffering by creating delicious and affordable c

ruelty-free food that people, regardless of their dietary preferences, can enjoy. We're excited to be serving our community compassionate cuisine and look forward to feeding our neighbors for many years to come.

Testing Testing, New Menu Coming Through

I ramble about the last few specials, local recognition, and the summer menu update (only at Foodhisattva.com)

Summer Break

We will be closed June 18th to June 21st for a little summer break. We'll be back the following week with an updated summer menu.

I included myself making kimchi (to put a face behind this madness) and yesterday's Cleveland sunset (because we need balance, and it's gorgeous).

Okay, bye

Early Heads Up!

We'll be closed for Summer Break June 18th to June 21st.

We'll be back June 25th with our Summer Menu Update!

In other words, I need to play serious catch up with the back end of Foodhi. That and I'm tired. 😅

Leaving Soon

This one comes and goes, like a boomerang first thrown back in our pop-up days, our Chick'n Katsu Sando features a house chick'n cutlet breaded and fried to perfection with dill pickles, lettuce, hot mustard mayo, and our chef's Katsu sauce.

We're pretty sure our Sando is the first vegan Chick'n sandwich in Cleveland, and although we're proud of that we do recognize the need to keep things new and exciting.

Our Chick'n Katsu Sando will be moving back into special rotation, so grab one before the waiting is the hardest part.

Leaving Soon!

Our Sweet and Sour Seitan!

With our house porq/seitan, pineapple, carrots, peppers, and onions, and our sweet and sour sauce, we love this stir-fry. But we need to keep the menu exciting and new for y'all and that means cutting some of our favorite dishes.

We're planning on running this and many of our current menu items for a couple weeks. After which, we'll take a break to recoup and reset the kitchen for our summer menu.

We'll be dropping our summer menu in June (we're also planning a small break before the new menu drops) so come through and grab your favorites before it's too late!

We're rooting for this week's specials.

Carrot Cake

Carrot sponge with cream cheese frosting, white chocolate-covered walnuts, and toasted coconut.

Lemon Meringue

Lemon curd, torched meringue, and almond crust.

Banana Peanut Butter Pudding
Vanilla pudding, fresh bananas, peanut butter cream.

Kitchen Specials

Bodhi Beet Burgers (While Supplies Last)
I made a batch of our classic veggie burgers. Each patty is topped with seasoned avocado, coconut bacon, tomato, lettuce, green onion, and mayo, served on a sesame-seeded focaccia bun.

These are limited, so grab one while you can.

I've been running more in-house specials lately. Thanks to our Mother’s Day guests, I was able to test a Neat Loaf Plate with mashed potatoes, mushroom gravy, and broccoli. I’m still dialing in a few elements, but once I’m happy with it, I’ll run it again (probably sometime this weekend).

I’m also revising the Chickpea Fries—new iterations of a “once upon a menu” option coming soon. Y’all loved them at the last brunch, and that gave me the push to bring them back. Fair warning though: these are best eaten immediately, so I may end up keeping them in-house only.

In other words: I have been running specials, but I've been limiting many of them to small batches and dine-in only.

Okay, bye
