Best Vegan Restaurants in University of South Florida

Had a wonderful time at Jackson’s celebrating a coworker’s retirement. The friendly hosts seated us immediately even though we were a little early for our reservation, and we got a great spot outside overlooking the bay. Our server was awesome; very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. Rarely had to ask for anything as he was always right around the corner already bringing it our way. I’m sorry that I don’t remember his name, but he really was great. We had sushi, grouper bites and coconut shrimp for appetizers and they were all perfect. The sweet sauce used to dress one of the rolls (can’t remember the name of the roll but it was lightly fried, with crab) was TO DIE FOR. So good! For entrees I had the special of pecan crusted salmon over brussels and sundried tomatoes, the sweet green sauce was the perfect compliment to the dish and if it wasn’t frowned upon I would have licked the plate clean. My coworkers ordered the lobster po’boy and the Tuscan chicken and we were all very impressed with both the quality and the plating. As a first time diner at Jackson’s, I have to say I was very happy with the experience. The restaurant interior was beautiful and so was the outdoor seating area. The only negative part was that there was a good bit of construction being performed right near the building so at times it got a little loud (and there was a bumblebee that reaaaally wanted my espresso martini lol), but it is what it is. Thank you to the wait staff, hosts, and the cooks/Chef for providing a 5-star experience. I’ll definitely be back with more friends!

Everything we have here is amazing. Creative and delicious. This time we had the Devil on Horseback, Thai Curry Mussels, Pub Burger, and the Shrimp and Grits and everything was really good. We had the Chocolate Silk pie for dessert and it was very rich, but the fresh whipped cream mellowed it out perfectly. Can't wait to go back!

The New building is gorgeous and OMG superb service. We loved David as our head waiter. He has a great personality. The entire staff was absolutely outstanding. We truly felt the love for our special dinner date. -champagne toast 5 -special dinner photo 5 -Caesar and lemon vinaigrette salads 5 - bread and butters 5 -Tomahawk 5 -Flemings potatoes 5 -corn brûlée 5 -cheesecake 5 -gooey brownie/ice cream 5 OVERALL- We will definitely be back. Thank you for an excellent evening.

We arrived at 6:15 and left at 8:50. Some of this is our fault but this is still way to long. Same story for our experience two weeks before. Seems like you have a staffing issue.

Many good options and love that they also list the calories
