50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Birmingham

“Omg! Definitely a must have!!! We are incredibly picky but tonight we had an amazing dinner & drinks.“

“This was my first time at any Hattie B's. Now I know what all the talk is about. This is the best chain (maybe any kind) of bone in fried chicken I have had. You can tell it is cooked fresh. Nice crust. They offer various levels of heat. I chose medium (3rd on the scale). It was a little too hot for my liking. I will drop down to mild next time. I got the half bird so I could try both the dark and white meat. Both were good, but the dark meat wins out. The white was just a touch dry in spots (juicy overall). For sides, I got the potato salad and the black eyed pea salad. Both were good, but the potato salad wins. I wish they had hot black peas, mash potatoes with gravy, and rice as gravy as options, but they do not. They did have mac and cheese and fries as options. My friend got those and gave them high marks. Another added benefit is this chicken reheats great in an air fryer. The staff were friendly. We were there around 7:30 at night. It was a good crowd (mainly college aged) there. It is a nice area right near St. Vincent's Women and Children's Hospital.“

“This is one of our favorite spots in town. The food and service has never disappointed!“

“Exceptional in every way. The food is always over the top. They go above and beyond to make this the best dining experience. It's our favorite Birmingham restaurant.“

“We're not huge fans of Greek food, but we tried Tasty Town, mainly for convenience. We had planned a very packed day of sight-seeing in Birmingham on a Saturday. It seemed that hardly any eatery would be open and there wasn't time allowance to drive out of the downtown area, without being late for the next activity. Thus, we settled on a mid-afternoon lunch/dinner at Tasty Town. Honestly, both of us thought it was better than we had anticipated and the service and location were top notch. Thanks, Tasty Town! Thanks for being there, and thanks for being so good.“

“This was our first time and it was absolutely excellent from start to finish! The manager, Brandon, was SO genuinely welcoming and accommodating. Our server, Parker, was flawless and so much fun (request him!). Every dish was perfectly cooked, refined and full of flavor (smoked salmon, fried green tomatoes, fried oysters, rainbow trout, swordfish with andouille, ribeye with truffle fondue). The cocktails and wine all perfect. Will definitely return and want to thank Blueprint for a truly wonderful experience!“

“FANTASTIC restaurant! Drinks are on point, food is amazing, and the staff makes this one of our fav restaurants and definitely a repeat! 10/10 recommend!“

“Always consistently delicious food and great service. One of my top 5 Birmingham restaurants!“

“Wonder Food and Drink experiment for quick brunch before boarding Amtrak train to NOLA! Yummy“

“Amazing food and great service. 🙂“

“Chucks Fish in BHAM is absolutely fantastic! From sushi to steak you cannot go wrong in this place. So so good! My go to on HWY 280!“

“We love this restaurant and had a phenomenal experience on 2 different occasions. Today they did a fantastic job for our son's birthday. The food was amazing and the staff is so friendly. The atmosphere is cozy and beautiful. We definitely will make this our place to escape from the average dining places.“

“Every visit = perfection. The service is impeccable and the food is delicious. You can’t go wrong with the Burrata, Kale Caesar, and Calamari!“

“Great breakfast buffet that was very expensive but convenient if you are staying in the hotel. Everything was fresh and they had someone at a station making omelets and would bring it to your table if you didn’t want to wait for them to prepare it. Overall the breakfast buffet was good.

The staff was very friendly. We even came here at the end of our day for desert and enjoyed the restaurant that had a modern look and was quiet and relaxing.“

“Ordered food delivery from here and the food was fantastic! It was still hot when I received it. My mom and I split a dinner and still had so much food left over. Miso was delicious and ginger dressing tastes like it’s supposed to. Would highly recommend!“

“That pasta be bussin. #FreeLuigi“

“I’ve been avoiding posting this review, but it wouldn’t be fair to others if I didn’t. I know I’ll probably catch some flack or criticism for it, but it is what it is. I don’t get paid for this. I don’t receive free food. I experience these restaurants just like any other customer, from the moment I walk in to the moment I leave. That being said, here’s my honest review of Yo’ Mama’s! I went here with friends and family for lunch, and my first impression was great. The restaurant was very clean, and the staff was friendly and efficient. To start on a positive note, everyone else in my group really enjoyed their food. They said the fish was well-seasoned and delicious, and they had no complaints. Unfortunately, I wasn’t as lucky. I ordered the fried chicken and waffles, and while it looked absolutely delicious, the taste didn’t match the appearance. Let’s start with the chicken. It was fried to perfection crispy on the outside, juicy and tender inside, practically falling off the bone. No issues there. However, the biggest problem was the complete lack of seasoning. It tasted like it was simply floured and fried no salt, no pepper, nothing. I was so disappointed that I couldn’t even finish it and ended up giving it away. As for the waffle, it was cooked beautifully crispy on the outside, light and fluffy on the inside. It was good, but unfortunately, syrup didn’t seem to be an option. Instead, I was given something that resembled honey butter but had a strange, fruity taste and a gritty texture, which threw it off for me. Had I just received regular syrup, I think I would have enjoyed it much more. Now, let me be clear I hate that I even have to say this but this review is not meant to bash or tear down a Black-owned business. I was genuinely excited to try this place, only to walk away feeling let down. This is why I always try to dine with others when I do reviews to get a well rounded perspective. I had three other people with me, and they all enjoyed their meals. Unfortunately, I just drew the short straw that day. Final thoughts: Based on my personal experience, I’d have to rate my meal 5/10 not because the food wasn’t cooked well, but because key elements of flavor were missing. That said, would I return? Yes. The food was prepared properly, and the restaurant itself had a great atmosphere. They just missed the mark on seasoning, which is crucial. I’d still encourage others to check this place out. Every dining experience is different, and just because mine wasn’t great doesn’t mean yours won’t be. Hopefully, if I visit again, my experience will be much better!“

“First time visit last night. Holy cow. Talk about amazing food. Ordered the Palmero (sp) pizza and salad. I felt like I was in Italy. The ingredients are so fresh tasting. Cant say enough about their pizza. Thin crust. Able to enjoy the pizza and not have a mouth full of bread. Fast service. Love the professionalism of the owner / bakers. They had on a chef coats and “Italy” caps. The place was extremely clean and VERY inviting. My friend that I went with used the facilités and she came out and was remarking how awesome the bathrooms even were. Def will be eating there again and again. Welcome to Trussville.“

“Excellent food and service 😊“

“It was our Anniversary and they had a placecard on table noting it as well as our server. One of my favorite restaurants in Birmingham. Ambience is perfect ..the separate rooms are cozy and noise level is low. Service always top notch! Food is great . The only thing i don't care for is the bread. They could leave the spinach marinade off the top and serve a more crusty warm bread . The olive oil to dip is great.“

“Even got a cool 😎 magic show! Everyone was friendly! Good food.“

“Great atmosphere and delicious food, just all over great service.“

“Nice restaurant. It’s my first time ever ordering from you all. I placed a To go order and my food was ready upon pick up! I can literally eat a whole plate of that rice by itself, it was so good and seasoned, and the chicken was tender too. I will be coming back again.“

“Best ceviche I have ever had - and I’m from a costal state where it’s very popular. The atmosphere was great and our waiter was awesome! I had the Masa Custed Trout - 10 out of 10!! My son had Barbaccoa quesadilla, it was great too! Little one had a bacon quesadilla he ate ALL of it shocking for put 9 yo! Seriously though, go! You won’t regret it!!“

“This was one of the best food truck experiences for me! The garlic parm potato is my fav!! Give them a try!!!“

“When I walked in the door, I was greeted by someone. I was told there would be a 5 minute wait to sit down. It didn’t take the whole 5 minutes for me and two additional people to be seated. The business was quite full but everyone appeared to be enjoying themselves, smiling and eating. As soon as we were seated a waitress took our drink orders along with our food. We received our drinks right away. It took approximately 10 minutes for us to get our food. The food was delicious. I am impressed. Great service overall. 5 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Flew in from Houston and so glad I stopped here. Had the fried green tomato BLT with a cold PBR draft and it was amazing! If you’re in Birmingham you gotta give this place a try, 100 out of 100 ⭐️’s!!“

“Absolutely best restaurant I have eaten and I have been to Italy. Husband agreed. Food was freaking amazing and portions are huge. The wedge salad was to die for!! I do not like bread pudding but loved Amore bread pudding. Appears to be a strip mall restaurant on outside but step inside and its a while different experience. Our server was very sweet and did a great job!“

“This is one of the hidden gems in town! Always fantastic food and I eat here at least twice a week. The service is outstanding and always friendly. Sue the hostess that works the door is amazing. She remembered my name by the second visit and always greets me with a smile?. The entire staff is unbelievable and you feel like you are eating lunch with best friends. Highly recommend!!!“

“Great service and food is always good.“

“It was delicious and the service was great, too. I definitely recommend it!“

“I love the deviled eggs and the muffins! Of course the BBQ is delicious but the Pies are a must try! The staff is very prompt and courteous. I use curbside to pick up dinner and it’s convenient especially with all the traffic on 280.“

“We have been using pickup of late and it is so easy to use the app! The food is ready on time and delivered out to the car. We love Taziki’s!“

“Pathways hosted our Magic City Carnival fundraising event at Cahaba Brewery, and we couldn't be more grateful for their support! The team was incredibly accommodating, providing a fantastic space for our guests to gather and enjoy the evening. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the craft beers were a huge hit with everyone. Thank you to Cahaba for helping make our event a success and for supporting the community. We highly recommend this brewery for both casual outings and special events!“

“We went to visit yesterday! Love this place! Great drinks, extraordinary cats and wonderful staff!! Thank y'all for what you do!! Will be back 💕🐈‍⬛💕“

“Food is excellent and consistent. Authentic flavors“

“Went here after a cheer competition! We had a large party and were set quickly! Our waitress had multiple large parties and was absolutely fabulous! Food was amazing! The kids enjoyed the outside area while waiting on food! Very accommodating to allergies and picky eaters! Highly recommend! Only con is that they don’t have one in Murfreesboro, TN!!“

“My wife recently had an overnight procedure at UAB, so we looked up Cajun restaurants in the area and this was the closest to us. I’ve been to NOLA countless times over the years and I’m here to say, every morsel of food we ate at this place was hands down better than anything I’ve ever had in NOLA. I love spicy food and everything was seasoned to perfection. I honestly can’t say enough great things about this hidden gem. Super friendly staff, excellent food and great atmosphere. We live in North AL and I would definitely drive the hour south just to go eat here again. It was absolutely amazing. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!“

“Delicious! Best hamburger and wings. Excellent service from our bartender, Savannah. She's the best!“

“This is the full experience. Incredible and unique tasting food, the most friendly service, good drinks, sports playing quietly while live music adds a great atmosphere. I'm putting SAW's on my list to visit every time I come to Birmingham.“

“The best pizza in Birmingham!“

“This by far is my favorite place to eat and drink. If your looking for an ice cold beer, glass of wine or a cocktail handed to you by the best bartenders - this is your place! Best sandwiches and soup. Incredible bar to hang out and chill.“

“Red Sea is the Ultimate Dining Experience, I have been a Loyal Customer for years. In my humble Opinion, with the Ultimate Gumbo Alone, there is no comparison nowhere in the B’ham/Metro area!!! Sunday I took my Mother and Sisters here for Dinner after Church, and they were very Impressed. The Food was Delicious “As always”and the Service was Impeccable. Whenever I’m asked of friends and Family Or Co- workers of a Good Place to enjoy a meal RED SEA is the Place I will always Highly Recommend. Chef “B” and Staff are Awesome!!!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Amazing food…Al Pastor tacos are 🔥“

“We had a great time tonight for Valentine’s Day. The food and drinks were wonderful and we really appreciated the atmosphere and roomy table distances. Will definitely be back.“

“Fantastic meal and drinks!“

“My husband and I ate breakfast here while in Birmingham. The waiter was very hospitable and checked on us. The food was great!! It was busy but we didn't wait a long time for our food. The drive thru was busy so that was an indication the food was goodt!! This was the first time I saw a drive thru breakfast place.“

“I saw a review on crypto investment that changed my story for good. I never believed it at first but after much convincing by my account manager in the person of Mrs Craig Vanessa I decided to give it a trial with just $5,000 even though there was a lower cost of investment. Starting with this, I made a profit of $35,500 in the first week. I am sharing this here for those that may have an interest. Mrs. Craig Vanessa is genuine and her style of trade is unique. Completely top-notch and different from the rest. Contact her today and you will not regret it. Send her a DM on WhatsApp via the number on her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“Great beer and atmosphere!“

“Nikole was our server and she was amazing. Very friendly and attentive. We ordered the Chicken Pesto Flatbread as an appetizer. It was so fresh and light. For my entree I had the filet mignon with lobster tail. It is a little pricey but worth it. I ordered my steak medium well and asked for it to be butterflied. This was a recommendation last visit from Kiki. Most places won't tell you that and your steak ends up being tough and dry. At Season 52 my filet was so tender and flavorful. Desserts come shooter style. My husband couldn't decide and ordered all of them. Our favorites were the oatmeal cookie cream pie, carrot cake and key lime pie. Next up would be turtle, pecan pie and s'mores. Lastly would be the peanut butter chocolate and raspberry chocolate chip cannoli.“
