You’ll find this restaurant on Madison’s State Street, a pedestrian-friendly shopping and dining district. This strategic location places Justveggiez in the heart of downtown Madison and within a stone's throw of the UW campus - it’s fueling the studies of many students.
The business began as a catering and food truck endeavor. But what initially started as a common sight at area food festivals has blossomed into a brick-and-mortar gem with some tasty offerings.
The restaurant’s culinary creations are the product of James Bloodsaw, Jr., a native of Chicago, Illinois, who discovered his passion for cooking at 17 while working at Reggio's Pizza. His father's health concerns inspired James to pursue a healthier lifestyle. He leveraged 30 years of cooking and catering experience and decided to share his newfound passion for a healthier diet with the world.
Justveggiez's menu is loaded with vegan variations on classic comfort foods. The menu includes savory offerings like vegan cheese curds, drumsticks, and burgers, all of which offer a healthier twist on beloved favorites.
For those seeking unique flavors, Justveggiez delivers with options like the plant-based Reuben sandwich, Carolina Reaper Chix Sandwich for the spice enthusiasts, a crispy BBQ tofu wrap, and a plant-based vegan orange chix.
I’ve been a fan of the Justveggiez food stand for years and was excited to see that they have opened a restaurant. It already has a big following!
