Da Picky Vegan

"I asked and Chef John delivered! I wanted a black bean burger with no bun and he made me tacos. They were phenomenal. If you're hesitant about vegan food don't be, you won't miss meat at all!"

"Whether you are vegan or not, you need to try this place. I had the Da Picky combo. Like an Impossible burger, it is pretty delish and has great texture. The sauce (I had garlic BBQ) is amazing and you get a guilt-free burger - in a mall food court of all places. The seasoned fries were pretty delicious and fresh as well! I’ll come back to try the other offerings, but there can’t be enough said about how awesome it is just that Da Picky Vegan exists. Your tastes can lay anywhere on the dietary spectrum and enjoy the offerings here. For those like me - plant-based, always learning and adapting - being able to go to a restaurant and order anything on the menu (as opposed to Frankenstein-ing some collection of salad & side dishes) is such a great experience."

"All in favor of vegan food! I'm not vegan, (or vegetarian (I don't know what I am (please help me))) but it's great to see more options in St. Louis' de-facto cultural nucleus. Sadly, the line here was not very long, so it looked less appealing than the food court's other options. (Probably partially due to the fact that most Americans wrinkle their nose at the thought of death-free food, or maybe just because it's relatively new) I ordered the chicken sandwich, (No side,) which the girl at the counter recommended me, and I enjoyed it! Not my absolute favorite, and they were busy behind the counter with something, so my food took a little while to get. The thing tasted like chicken to some extent, (Which is more than enough, as deep-fried chicken doesn't even taste like chicken 75% of the time.) I wasn't crazy about the breading on the chicken, though the slaw and the sauce went a ways to make it pretty tasty. Overall, not my favorite food court staple, but if you're vegan, vegetarian, or have general plant-based inclinations, (like me,) then you should definitely give this a try!"

"Alright this place is legit. As someone with many food allergies, I opted to come here because it’s not as if we are given many choices in regular food courts. This place however, even if I didn’t have these allergies, I’d eat here. Even my husband ended up stealing some of my food. I ordered the black bean burger with garlic bbq and maple sweet potato fries, and it was all so so good. My son ate all my fries so we ended up having to get more. You won’t regret coming here! Delicious food!"

"Great experience at Da Picky Vegan (located in the food court). Ordered a Chop Chkn Hero and a Triple Patty Combo. I would've preferred crispier sweet potato fries. We had a good conversation with the gentleman there and he gave us a sample of crab cakes. Overall good experience and will definitely return!"
