Wow! Blown away! If you’re looking for real, plant based, delicious meals this is the place! Awesome atmosphere, the staff is so friendly and greets you with a warm welcome. Health conscious people, athletes, families with growing children should definitely check it out! Eat fit certified and very sanitary during Covid so it’s a no brainer if you want to feel good and stay healthy! New favorite spot!

We were excited to try this place and were not disappointed. The menu doesnt do justice to how good the food is when it comes out - they need pictures on it! Not everything is plant based/vegan - they do have vegetarian options and even a shrimp item. The broccoli soup was amazing. Prices very reasonable for the quality.. except was a but shocked at the $7 oatmeal cookie price tag (but It was delicious ;)) We wish they were open for dinner.There is a parking lot in the back with plenty of parking.

Stopped for lunch while passing through Baton Rouge, specifically looking for a vegan friendly option. I got the cauliflower buffalo wrap and my husband got the Bae-LT. Both were delicious! Friendly staff. We also got a bag of the Bae-con to go :) Highly recommend.

Super cute space and really good food! Cauliflower wrap and cup of soup is a really perfect lunch portion. Love all the plants and decor. Cant wait to try the BLT.

They were awesome at white star, glad to see then have their own location. They did expand to more than just vegan, but theyre still plant-based. Still delicious

Amazing service. Insanely fast. Some of the best vegan food I have ever had. I was a little thrown by the price at first but the portions are definitely worth it

Such a great little vegan friendly restaurant! Lovely atmosphere, super friendly staff, and delicious food. My favorite thing was the black bean soup (could probably survive off of it and still be so happy). Will be back next time I drive through Baton Rouge.

Great healthy option in Baton Rouge. Im glad I read about it and tried it. Definitely recommend the Hippie sandwich and any homemade soup

Cauliflower wrap and eggplant soup was delicious. I will definitely go back.

The cutest little vegan restaurant. My friends and I loved the atmosphere. Delicious food + wonderful people!

One of my favorite places to eat and they have the best baked goods. The ginger molasses cookies the other day were delicious!

Food was excellent, service... not so much. All of the waitresses seemed agitated that there were customers in the restaurant. There were probably 4 tables with people, and 2 seated at the bar. Once the food was dropped off, they never came back to check on us. Again food was amazing, the staff just made us feel like an inconvenience.

The best vegan/vegetarian restaurant in B.R. Everything is fresh, colorful and delicious!

This is the $14 salad of the week I ordered to go for lunch... barely anything in the box. 2 stars for what it had potential to be

House made soup- made with love. They always have the freshest tasting food. Great place to take vegetarians and soooo many options for a healthy and delicious lunch.

MJs for the win! Excellent service with a smile and super good options. I chose the jackfruit gyros and was so excited. Ive heard jackfruit is an amazing meat substitute and was not disappointed. It was absolutely delicious and cane with a light side salad as well. Highly recommend and cant wait to go back and try their other options!

Awesome selection of vegan fare. A marvelous interior style. Great place to enjoy a quick bite with good service.

Delicious BaeLT! Great Vegan/Vegeterian Spot with excellent service.

Delicious lunch at MJs cafe! Last visit I picked the Bbq chickpea salad, which was so tasty and filling. Today, I chose the falafel salad that comes with tomatoes, pickled red onions, cucumber, tzatziki sauce, and crispy flavorful falafel. I was so excited to eat it that I forgot to take a photo before digging in! The flavors worked perfectly with the sauce and was the perfect serving size.The new store is so cozy with the beautiful plants and decor!There’s a parking lot in the back of the store.

If you have not tried this place check it out!!!!! The food is delicious and did I mention actually good for you . Thank you mjs cafe for having foods I can feel good about eating !!!

Yummy food and sweet staff! Would love for them to go back to 100% vegan like they were at white star!!

Service wasnt ideal, food took awhile, and as a non vegan, the food was just ok. The prices are reasonable (I thought vegan wouldve been a bit more). Definitely try if youre interested in vegan food!

I went for the soft opening, and let me just say, even better than I remember! I was very pleased with my overall experience. The new location has parking available in the back, a welcoming environment, and of course the food is amazing. Look forward to going back soon!

MJS ambience is reminiscent of Southern antiquities meets eclectic charm. The energy is welcoming and relaxed. They also sell antiques.The food exceeded my taste expectations. The black bean soup and West African peanut soup were delicious. If youre looking for a Vegan/Vegetarian dining experience in Baton Rouge, I highly recommend stopping by MJS Cafe.

MJs is the best! Everything is fresh and delicious! As you can see from the photos I keep going back! They have a great choose two deal!

A great vegan/vegetarian place located at White Star Food Hall. I had the one with pecans, apples, and goat cheese. It was great!

Cant wait for the new space to open! But in the meantime, Im loving the Chickpea salad that they offer at the Saturday morning farmers market. Fresh and flavorful!

Clean, friendly, and tasty another restaurant in my pocket to visit for me.

Coconut bacon BLT...delicious!

Wonderful atmosphere and amazing, fresh food. I love the mushroom soup! We will be back!

Good vegan food!

A very nice atmosphere. Couldnt order our first choice of meal because the panini press was broken. Then my friend and I ordered the same sandwich and mine came without the feta cheese. The waistress never checked on us until she brought the bill.

Love this place! Outside, you are welcomed by beautifully painted butterfly wings comprised of fruits and vegetables. Inside, the soothing and very Instagramable tiki-chic interior serves as a respite from the daily grind. Youll then find a staff who is passionate about what they do and a menu stocked full of delicious plant-based foods. From the breakfast Game Changer to the Breakfast Tacos to the Quiche to vegan BLT to the Weekly Salad, you cant go wrong. My personal favorites are the Cauliflower Wrap and the Daily Soup. Ive dined in, called in to-go orders, picked up catering orders, and grabbed items from the stocked fridges. All has been the same high quality. I highly recommend MJs Cafe!

Creative plant-based menu. Beautifully prepared and presented. Really nice vibe.

Best place in Baton Rouge for Vegetarian and Vegan people.I loved it. Hospitality was outstanding!!! Highly recommend this place.

Nice ambiance, great vegan/vegetarian options

Well Im not really sure about going vegan but I gave it a try and all in all Im still a carnivore but MJs makes a great sandwich and a great bowl of soup.

Fantastic food! Amazing atmosphere! Considerate and caring community!

I am new to vegan eating but the breakfast burritos are delicious.

Amazing food accompanied by great service from wonderful people!

Delicious vegetarian / plant-based food! The chickpea wrap was delicious, as was the black bean torta (which wasnt a torta (sandwich), but the pita wrap was good). Nice sauces to add flavor. Soups are always very tasty. Awesome vegetarian option for lunch.

This minute, I am eating a mj’s daily special salad - and it is one of the best salads I’ve had in a while. The ingredients are fresh and vibrant. Service was fast. Price is reasonable. Great plant-based eating establishment.

Great way to enjoy healthy, fresh food. I really enjoyed the cauliflower wrap. Will definitely return to try other things on the menu.

This place is amazing for vegan food! The only bad thing is they do not advertise allergens. My fiance is allergic to nuts and her ordered avocado toast... no warning that this contains nuts and it did. Could have ended really bad but luckily I told him to double check before he bit into it.

What I had was very good. I didnt know that coconut bacon (vegan) even existed. Breakfast menu only til 11. Its inside White Star Market with about 5 other counters like a permanent food truck area.

First time and the food was great

Great coffee. Interior was beautiful.

BEST PLACE ON THE PLANET

MJ’s Cafe is wonderful. Hot specials a couple of times per week. The best vegetarian and vegan food I have had in Baton Rouge. Very friendly staff. They know what they are doing. The specials are outstanding. Not your typical veggie food. The specials taste like something you would get in anew Orleans. Sweet and cozy atmosphere.

It was very delicious!

I ordered a gluten-free sandwich and after two bites, it hit me. That was definitely not gluten free. The customer service was subpar, and the food was overpriced and didnt taste that great. If you have a gluten allergy/intolerance, do not go here!

Not usually over on this side of town, but Ive stopped in here twice now and had a buffalo cauliflower wrap. Really good!

We had a wonderful experience. I had pinto bean soup and my husband had roasted corn. They were both excellent. We shared a Southwestern sandwich.fabulous. nice atmosphere. Great service

Love the food, love the peeps!

No longer a vegan restaurant. They reinvested what the predominantly vegan clientele from their old white star market location had put in, into a new restaurant where cruelty is now being served. There are vegan options, but knowing that the hard earned money that you intended on investing into a vegan business is now being reinvested into exactly what we DO NOT SUPPORT is a bit too much to swallow.I cannot continue to support this business. In every aspect it still appears to be a vegan business all while still funding torture, and cruelty. Being a predominantly female business with a female owner and the dairy industry as well as other animal agriculture businesses being a direct feminist issue, you would think they would care a bit more since reproductive exploitation and suffering is a huge issue here.They are not looking out for the community, not caring about the clientele that kept them afloat at white star, all while not truly caring about health, the environment, the planet, the people, or the non human animals here with us. I don’t understand what changed from here to there, but I think it’s time everyone knows the truth and has the power to make an informed decision on who and what they are actually funding. It’s time for transparency.Though the website and the menu that follows make it appear that this restaurant is still indeed VEGAN, it is NOT. Very much a bait and switch tactic. Going from a regular at their white star location, speaking with the owner and connecting about veganism and how important it is, it really seemed like she got it, like she truly understood— that she would continue improving and doing better for the community, for the future, for health, etc. I remember it was such a victory when cheese finally got removed from the menu and they made that switch to vegan- why chance cross contamination?While crosscontamination is an important factor, and always a worry, what’s worse is losing your morals and values for money. I always thought of mjs as forward thinking and caring, but they went the opposite way on this one. I hope one day they can once again align both their morals and values to what kind of future and world they want, that’s beneficial to all.“you can go all vegan or compromise your morals to pander to people doing harm in this world. You have a choice to do better. I hope you go back to being fully vegan, we can’t support you otherwise because we refuse to fund any “food” industry that harms innocent beings strictly for the pleasure of taste.Sentient beings are not food, nor are their excretions- when you support dairy, fish, etc., you are voting for the kind of world you wish to live in. I refuse to support an industry based on reproductive exploitation, abuse, and suffering. What’s happening to this planet, the people, and its diverse sentient beings is unacceptable and all of our responsibility to deal with.Suffering does not need to be on our plates or your menu. We can get these same tastes, and more nutritional value being fully plant based- choosing VEGAN.Please consider taking pain and suffering off your menu and out of your restaurant. As a small business owner, you have the moral obligation to do better. The old mj’s(vegan) was a place to feel good, safe, healthy, happy, all while not funding such atrocities. We, as well as many others miss that safe space you created, but unfortunately that is no more.I cannot pay for the “VEGAN OPTION” while funding the things that are not vegan- I don’t want my money reinvested into something we are fighting so hard against.”

Tried MJs for the first time and it was excellent. Havent had vegetarian food that good in a while. I ordered the buffalo cauliflower wrap and devoured it. Then I immediately went back for more and got a blt. It was just as good, I dont know how but they turned coconut flakes into bacon. Like a mercury into gold level transformation. Prices are a bit on the steeper end but thats nothing new with vegan/vegetarian places.

Great tasting food

Awesome vegetarian soup/sandwich/salad lunch options. Its small and cozy (recently expanded a bit)...the people are wonderful and the food is great. Periodically they do Tables and Tunes dinners with a musician and full meal. Its worth checking out!

Great food, great atmosphere, great people

No such place anymore. OUTATOWNERS LIKE ME GETTIN CONFUSED! Thank you♡

I love this place!! Great place to eat for vegetarians and vegans! Everything was delicious and it has great energy!

Food is awesome. Service is awesome. Its mostly if not all Organic local produce. Portion size and price are very decent considering the quality of the food. I do however wish portion size was larger as a man. But I absolutely love!! And I dont need to eat like a horse anyway.

I was satisfied by your food. Thank you.

My favorite place! I feel lighter and fullfilled nutrition-wise each time I leave!!

Great place for a local vegetarian or vegan lunch. Locally sourced, reasonably priced and delicious.

Best lunch spot in BR. Great for vegans, vegetarians, and healthy eaters. I wish they were open for breakfast and dinner!

Wonderful Food, Atmosphere, and people. I would recommend MJs cafe to anyone.

Excellent food (summer squash soup & vegan sandwich) & service in a pleasant atmosphere. Thanks Google, Mj and Steven!!

I was not acknowledged when I walked in until they realize I was the elephant in the room. Food was ok, just wanted to try it out because I never ate a full vegan meal.

They always have delicious vegan options.

The food is delicious, satisfying, and healthy; service is amiable and quick; love the atmosphere.

Omg they have KOMBUCHA and Bolillo bread. Ladies here are so nice and playful. Cute too. But.... only open for lunch. Next time i will try Quish.

A must visit for local eats.

Tons of vegetarian and vegan options for Baton Rouge.
