Here’s just one of their many five-star reviews:

“Good Karma has become my favorite local restaurant! Not only is the food always cruelty-free, hearty and delicious (salad, soup, entree, samosas, cakes and cookies), but their hospitality and positivity are contagious. [They offer] great service [in a setting] where you’re treated like family.” – Amber W.

Not Your Average Restaurant

We wanted to learn all about Good Karma and its impressive online reputation, so we took a few minutes to talk with the Cook, Deshi Berg.

The first question we had for Deshi was what is it that sets Good Karma apart from their competition in Mississippi. Here’s Deshi’s response:

“Our vegan food is a pretty big catch. Everything is made in-house and sourced fresh locally. All natural is what our goal is!”

We also wanted to know what their mission is at Good Karma and how they work to make the world a better place. Here’s what Deshi had to say:

“[Our mission is to] provide clean food! There really aren’t many options for what we make in town.”

Building Success Through The Local News Station

When we asked Deshi about Good Karma’s secret to such a strong online reputation, he said:

“We don’t really pursue anything. People just take it upon themselves to leave us a review!”

Outside of building a powerful online reputation, Good Karma has gotten their name out there through a local news station, which is right next to them and sometimes does features on them. According to Deshi, that’s really the only form of advertising Good Karma has done.

There are so many business owners out there looking to build the kind of online reputation Good Karma has. Here’s Deshi’s expert advice for them:

“It takes time! Be patient, and keep at it. Too many people give up when they have a bad month. It’s a big-picture process!”


Congratulations to the team at Good Karma for being a 2019 Top Rated Local award winner, and thank you so much, Deshi, for taking the time to speak with us!

We highly recommend Good Karma in Gulfport. Visit their website today!
