Dharma Southern Chick'n

this restaurant’s food is so good that i came here 6 times in 3 days. every time i was in orlando i was dying to try dharma’s, but it was during the reconstruction period and i was never able to do so. the new location is small and consists of a few spaces to eat indoors and outdoors as well as a pickup counter and valhalla bakery (more vegan goodies) on your left. the first time i was finally able to try dharma’s i ordered the georgia peach sloppy joe and a side of mac n cheese— it immediately made its way onto my “favorite restaurants of all time” list and is staying there permanently. i joined the rewards program. i could go there and ask them to give me a completely random order and i’d be happy with whatever i got (i tried most of the menu in that 6 days)! the food has always been ready in good time and i was always happy with my service. although i’ve tried a lot of the menu, a few of my favorites are the georgia peach sloppy joe, caesar sandwich, and the mac n cheese. the adult chick’n nuggets are also an honorable mention! the portion sizes are large and the sandwiches are packed with flavor and toppings. everything is well-seasoned. i would 100% recommend coming here to eat and i give all my love to the staff and chef and everybody who puts their love into this food and service :) edit: i’m not going to lie, the quality in food has definitely gone down a little since they reopened - at this point, it’s really hit or miss. i first tried dharma when they reopened after a long closure and location change and i was very impressed by the quality and portion of food; lately, they’ve been a lot stingier with the portions and i’ve definitely noticed that the food is saltier and not as well-prepared. i’ve noticed a difference in quality (especially by the photos i’ve taken) starting from when they reopened, and nowadays i notice things like chick’n pieces that take up about half of the bun, smaller and soggier buns, extremely salty food, and the occasional burnt piece of food. the portions vary extremely, from just a few fried pickles and half a patty to a whole box of pickles and a packed sandwich; i don’t really know what im gonna get when it comes to any of the items i’m ordering, and i’ve found it really discourages me from picking up food there. for example, the georgia peach sloppy joe is my favorite item there and i originally loved how much beef they piled on and the amazing flavor. the flavor is still there, but the last time i picked up from here the sandwich was barely filled and mostly bun; the sandwich was insanely salty too. that being said, the workers are still nice and the food does taste pretty good. it isn’t as good as it used to be but it isn’t bad. for the price, however, i wouldn’t choose to pay this much for something that i know HAS been so much better in the past, even if i was willing to pay that much before.

Great Food!! Vegetarian options: None

The portion sizes were so tiny. I got a burger with a huge bun, but the patty was only half the size, it half of the burger was just bread and lettuce. It wasn’t even filling. The nuggets were also tiny and they were served cold (even though we ordered in person and ate right there)

My personal opinion!! The food presentation and the way they looks need to be better. Quality is important!!

My sandwich was awful & I threw most of it away . It’s a tofu patty - I was expecting another source of “meat” and it wasn’t warm. The Mac and cheese was creamy and pretty delicious. But this establishment was adjacent to a vegan bakery and I was most happy with that.

Amazing customer service, amazing food. Going vegan is going to be easy thanks to this restaurant.

Wish they had tomato slices on the burger. The Nashville spicy was . They have valhalla bakery besides and that is ✨as well.

Everything is delicious, and my partner and I go here often for the best seasoned vegan fried chicken ever! It’s very high quality vegan chicken. I love the Caesar clucker and my boyfriend loves the Buffalo clucker with candied jalapeños with griddled onions and a side of cheese homies. He’s in heaven every time. Also don’t miss out on the chicken nugz with a side of honee, it’s incredible!

Everything about this place is amazing. The people here are so friendly, the food tasted great, there's even a little bakery connected! I got the spicy Buffalo sandwich and it was perfect. Not overly spicy. There wasn't anyone else here at the time but I hope this place has busy moments to keep it open. I will say 45 dollars for 2 sandwiches, 2 fries and 2 drinks seemed pricey. But having a good experience helped justify the price.

The best vegan chicken sandwich I've ever had. And the buffalokra was amazing!
