While this has been on my list to try since they opened, I never made it a priority to stop by. That said, I ended up visiting on two consecutive days (reasons to be explained later).
My first visit was with a couple of friends on Saturday afternoon (it was a first visit for all of us). First, know that this is a to-go place only. There is zero seating available, no counters to stand at, nothing...one merely enters to place their order and pay. Once finished, you are instructed to wait outside in the elements. There is a small area that is covered that has a window where all orders (in person and online) are picked up from. Also, this area, has a station that contains all the utensils, napkins, etc.
Upon arriving, we were second in line behind a party of three, so it did not take us long to order and pay. Unfortunately, this was the only speedy part of the process, as we ended up waiting for 30 minutes for everyone to receive their food. There did not seem to be a system in place for how orders were prepared as people who ordered after us received their food prior to us. In our case, the last of our group who ordered/paid received their food first. It probably would have been longer had we not inquired to the status of our order which seemed to move us up on the list.
As for the food, two of us ordered Hollywood Hookers (Vegan Philly Cheesesteak) and one ordered the Chik'n Head (Vegan Chicken Sandwich). The Hollywood Hookers come with Slut-Dusted Fries. I had one of the Hollywood Hookers (Vegan Philly Cheesesteak) and was pleased with it. Thankfully, I had them omit the ketchup that comes on it as my friend who had the other one mentioned it really altered the flavor. As for the fries, they were good, but nothing stood out about them. Overall, Slutty Vegan is decent, but it is not worth a 30-minute wait.
After my first visit, I was prepared to leave a 2.5 - 3-star review. Considering I live within walking distance of Slutty Vegan, I decided to give them a chance to redeem themselves and walked over the next day for food. In an attempt to duplicate the previous days scenario, I went back close to the same time and ordered the exact same thing (Hollywood Hooker). The wait time was significantly better this time as I received my food 9 minutes after placing my order. That said, this time around, the cheese on my sandwich was only partially melted so perhaps they rushed it a bit too much. After my second visit, I settled on a 3-star review.
Because of proximity to home, there's a chance that I will visit Slutty Vegan again. After all, third time is the charm so hopefully the wait time will continue to improve, and the cheese will be fully melted.
