Bigger (& Better) in Texas

1/A Bit of Everything

One bite of Chef Troy Gardner’s extra-crispy fried oyster mushrooms, and you’ll instantly know why this ghost kitchen is called Tastes Like Chicken. But the menu at TLC Vegan Kitchen doesn’t stop at chicken-fried mushrooms. Here you’ll find Dallas’ best nachos: a pile of hot-out-of-the-fryer tortilla chips loaded with chili, queso, Impossible beef, sour cream, salsa, jalapeños, and mashed avocado. For a hearty dinner, the impressive three-cheese lasagna—layered with housemade ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, Italian-seasoned vegan beef, spinach, zucchini, and a roasted tomato sauce—is an ever-solid option.

2/Pizza Party

If you somehow leave is housed in the same kitchen. Chef Gardner flexes his passion for the Italian pie with thin and crispy or fluffy and thick Sicilian-style crusts that tempt diners even before they make it through the parking lot. You won’t go wrong with the Veganation Spectacular with pesto, roasted cauliflower, mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, house cashew mozzarella, and parmesan.
