Excellent food. I got a burger, and it was definitely a step up in quality from other vegan burger places. Really clean, natural light, great place to eat.

This place used to sell real food with quality ingredients. Now it’s all garbage faux meat made of unrecognizable things. With blah flavor. This place gets rated well because it is vegan only. Not because it is good, affordable, or offers any service. French meadow can’t be rated 5 stars because it sells meat. But, their healing plate tastes great and I can see what I am eating and it costs less or the same as here and it comes with service.

Vegans love it. I'm not, so I didn't enjoy the food.

Loved everything, although, my bacon was tooth breaking hard lol. Idk if it was just mine or if that’s normal. But otherwise SO GOOD.

J Selby's has a very nice, well put together, and comfy atmosphere. The staff are friendly and greets you with a smile. My first time eating here I had the wings. They were very tasty and I liked the homemade ranch, the fries were just fries. My second time I placed a pick up order that they charge 15% gratuity "for servers" (as stated on their website). I called about removing gratuity for pickup orders but they said no, they divvy it up between all employees. 🙄 I scheduled my order an hour out to pick up on my work break, but I got there and still had to wait an additional 10 minutes, not sure why since the food was luke warm... I immediately tried mozz sticks to try while "hot", the texture of the cheese inside, I couldn't deal 🥴. The steak sandwich was good - the meat texture is on point, they just forgot the "cheese" I ordered on it. Overall, the 2nd visit was overpriced and they under-delivered. $32 for mozz sticks that weren't edible and a Philly steak sandwich (no cheese) w/fries. Super disappointed, but I'll still try other items on the menu here and there when I have time to dine in. They have a large menu and the only completely plant-based restaurant that I could find in the area.
Parking: It's on the corner of a fairly busy street, limited parking.

The basic solo is outstanding. I have tried every item on the menu but keep coming back to this. Fries are very good. Shakes are the best I have ever had. This is a restaurant that cares about its employees, which I greatly appreciate. On a bus line. Street parking is easy to find.
One of my favorite spots in MSP. They always have rotating desserts in the case. Their chicken sandwich is really good. The peanut butter salted caramel shake is soo good I highly recommend. If u plan to go for Sunday brunch, prepare for it to be busy.

I had the "chicken" sandwich, fries, mango kombucha, and fried mushrooms for the table. My fam had burgers and the Cuban "pork" sandwich. Everything was quite good! The fried mushrooms were amazing, and the sandwich was very close to how I remember chicken to be. Very familiar flavor profile. The fries were spectacular. So refreshing to be able to order anything on the menu. Ironically, the meat eater in the group ordered fries and a side salad. That's usually the only option for me when we go out 🤣

The food is reliably good, and is designed to be familiar and welcoming to all (so no super-inventive vegan foods). What brings me back is knowing that anyone can order a free (or pay-what-you-can) "community bowl" and all the employees earn a living wage with benefits and PTO. Yes, that makes the prices a little higher than some other places, but I am happy to pay that.

Wonderful food and good portions. All of the items we have tried were great. Being able to get chili instead of fries is a great option.
