"This is the slogan on the kitchen door at Funmi's. And, we both felt, on the Saturday night we went, that we were fed well. I haven't had plantain that was prepared as well as at Funmi's. Very lightly fried, and perfectly ripe, with the Mrs. C special it was just everything you would want for a home cooked meal. The African brown beans were hearty, a nice combo with the kale stew. it was surprising how the food is so outstanding, yet the atmosphere is so similar to any ethnic you takey/carry-out place. TVs showing music videos, can't-remember-what-they looked-like tables, mass produced art on the walls. Really? Nigerian cooking with all those wonderful spices, textures and flavors would seem to inspire much more. Also,it's a bit hard to find this place as it is tucked behind the other stores that face Bardstown in the strip."

my first stop in louisville! from writing this (juli 2021) the restaurant is still Curbid, they take orders by phone and all usual apps. Vegan options are clearly marked and there is a lot! I had the speciality of the chef with tofu delicious and filled with unique aromen / picks.

Funmi's is a great little find in the Gardiner Lane shopping center. I visited recently with a Groupon and was able to get a delicious red cabbage salad and a vegan entree for just $15! I got it as a take-out meal and the owner was very friendly, getting my meal prepared fresh and in a timely fashion.

This was my first visit to Louisville! As of July 2021, the restaurant is still offering curbside pickup through their phone and all popular apps. The vegan options are clearly marked and there are plenty to choose from. I tried the chef's specialty with tofu, which was delicious and packed with unique flavors and ingredients. View menu

really delicious eating, served in a room that feels like a waiting room for her dentist. we don't think there's something like that in louisville. the personal was extremely knowledgeable and understanding about the vegan options – there is a separate menu that makes it easy. we ordered the courts medium-size and found them just that could be a little hotter but quite right on the money. loved all aromen and interesting ingredients. we were just once, but plan to go back soon.

This is a great place for vegans and non-vegetarians. The staff is always lovely. The food is delicious and there is an entire vegan menu if you ask. They often have specials for vegans too. I cant' recommend this place highly enough. This is a great food destination but not a great atmosphere. If you are looking for something with charm in the interior this is not for you. If you are looking for good food, you really can't do better. Please order the asaro (instead of rice) for me. Delicious! (The rice is good too, but where else are you going to get asaro?

I finally had the chance to try out Funmi's and I was impressed with their vegan menu. Although they listed 'ice cream,' I wasn't sure if they had vegan options. I recommended they look into So Delicious. The other dishes were amazing, featuring mostly rice and bean dishes, tofu, and savory Nigerian flavors in a tomato base. The yeast donuts were also vegan and delicious. The portions were a bit smaller than expected for the price, especially if not using a discount deal. However, it's great to have another vegan option on Bardstown Rd. Funmi's has done a great job updating their menu based on customer requests and location. View menu

Finally got to check out Funmi's! Their vegan menu is pretty rad, though they listed ice cream' and weren't sure they actually had vegan ice cream. I told them to check out So Delicious, etc. The other dishes were incredible, mostly rice and bean based, or tofu, with savory Nigerian flavors in a tomato base. Really good stuff! They have yeast donuts that are vegan as well. The portions are smaller than what you would expect for the price, and while we used a Groupon-like deal, paying full price would be pretty serious at this place (think $40+ for two people). Still, great to have another vegan option on Bardstown Rd, and very cool that they decided to update their menu based on requests and...

My whole family loves Funmi's! They're one of the best restaurants in Louisville for vegans. There are vegan options for starters, salads, soup, main meals, and desserts. That's really exciting because so many restaurants only have one or two things vegans can choose from. The food is always DELICIOUS to the point that I sometimes dream about it. I love her plantains in anything. I like the way she cooks her rice because it's so plump and has a great texture. Her cooking is so good that I crave things from Funmi's that I don't even normally like. The puff puffs dessert is like funnel cakes, doughnuts, and yeast rolls came together for a magical taste party. The service is good and Funmi and...
