50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Tucson

“Service excellent, food inventive, delicious. Dark slick tile floors, unmarked change from floor to a step…there must be a bright reflective tape or paint for more than one site in the restaurant. I was injured falling having not seen nor felt the one step. Management was most solicitous and paid our bill. We would never have asked for this and were surprised and grateful.“

“So good! I ate the literal perfect bagel today. Salted bagel, toasted, with dill pickle cream cheese. Sooooo good!“

“We came here a couple weeks ago for a double date and had such a great experience! Between the four of us, we sampled several dishes and they were all fantastic. The margherita pizza with lemon parm was incredible, and the mortadella appetizer—oh my gosh, so good! The only thing I wasn’t crazy about was the olive oil cake, but that’s just because I’m not a big fan of olive oil desserts. We did have to wait about an hour for a table (around 5 PM on a Saturday), but it was absolutely worth it. We can’t wait to go back!“

“Excellent meal. Mushroom soup intensely flavored and supremely delicious, scallops perfectly seared, bone marrow was perfect, king salmon was amazing. Great wine selection. Professional yet friendly staff. Can't wait for my next visit!“

“Great Pizza, Great service and just the best compliment to the liquid fair at the Hop Shop! Man I am a happy camper!“

“still has the vibe of the former Epic Cafe but with a refreshed menu and look.“

“The place is really nice and clean and the food is great. The service was meh, the girl at the register straight up lied to me and said they dont make coffee/latte, but when i left, i saw someone get up to get their iced latte..? Idk why she would lie to me and make it for othet people?“

“Perfect spot for Sunday lunch with a good friend. We highly recommend the refreshing watermelon 🍉 margaritas and mango ceviche, followed by the chicken tinga bowl and dulce de leche chocolate cake. Great ambiance and amazing service. We will definitely be back again soon!“

“Smells like rotten meat as soon as you enter the establishment, so I did not have food there. Service was terrible. Server was rude and didn't make eye contact or connection. Just staring at the hand held order device. had to repeat myself 4 times to order a "double jack splash of coke on the rocks." I received soda and a splash of jack but was billed for a double. Atmosphere is less than desirable. I've been in dive bars with cleaner bathrooms. Terrible experience all around.“

“The food is incredible and the owner is the most real & incredible human. Story time: 5 or so years ago I went in to pick up food - I was having the worst day. I was sick, I was fighting with an awful human non stop and I had just finished a 22 day straight gem show job. I sat down to wait for my food and the owner saw my sorry state and just came out and started putting a bunch of shots of juice in front of me. Literally fixed my day and my life for moment. I get emotional just walking into this place. Nothing but warmth and love. ❤️❤️❤️“

“Great food and the people are wonderful!“

“Burgers, fries and green beans were spot on. Service was excellent!
Coleslaw was a bit disappointing as it was all one color and texture, sort of weird.

DO NOT waste your money on the vegan “soft serve”, very disappointing texture and flavor when there are so many incredible vegan ice creams that exist. This stuff was weird and tasted syrup based. It definitely brings down the overall experience after a great meal, really bummed we spent $21 on three soft serves.“

“Great Meal and great service. Luis was amazing person. The salsa was made at the table.“

“Great food, atmosphere, and friendly staff.“

“Went with my brother while visiting in Tucson. Tried the Sonoran hot dog. Delicious! Service was great and friendly!!!!“

“My partner, friends, and I have had the chance to try several of Alaine’s vegan baked treats, and every one has been fantastic. Her food is delicious and clearly made with care. On top of that, I had the pleasure of speaking with Alaine herself, and it’s obvious how much she truly values her customers and the community. A wonderful local business I’m always happy to support!“

“I absolutely love everything about Eatgypt! The owner and family are friendly, knowledgeable and responsive, the food is incredible and everything is clean. DO NOT pass on the baklava if they have it in stock, it is amazing. Highly recommend!“

“First saw Tumerico on Triple D. Visiting Tucson in March…family tried it out…we beeping loved it. I am almost exclusively a carnivore, but I’d eat at Tumerico’s twice a week if I lived here. Absolutely delicious!“

“Have had nothing but absolute deliciousness from this place. Pasta, salads, sandwiches and the garlic aioli fries are to die for. Go! You won’t be disappointed!“

“This place is delicious. They have a nice variety of safe snacks and other items to browse on the side. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. This place has now become a staple in our lives. 😊“

“We live super close to licks and I love to always try a different flavor and there custom milkshakes are so good also, if you look to the right of the fridge and between the lounge area on the wall there’s a menu for a bunch of different types of ice cream like one is a peanut butter sorta vibe ice cream cone and also another amazing thing is there staff they are always so friendly, I highly recommend this if your driving by or if you are eating dinner somewhere near I definitely recommend stopping by.“

“Very friendly staff and the tea is 10/10 quality :)“

“DELICIOUS FOOD AND WONDERFUL SERVICE!!“

“Great atmosphere, varied menu, and excellent service. All four of us LOVED our entree selections. Can't wait to go back and try something different.“

“Dear Tito and Pep, Please refresh the menu. you are so talented ,passionate ,and creative with your food. Please share with us ( your Tucson)what other excellent culinary creations are in your heart, mind and soul. We love your foods and the story. So ,what is the next page in this beautiful Sonoran gastronomic adventure ? Go for it Chef!“

“My vegan meal looked fresh .The vegetables ,and tasted wonderful lots of flavor. The turmeric lemonade was good. The service was awesome. So many people put all the flavor in the meat, they forget about the vegetables. Anyways after my somewhat awful experience at another Mexican restaurant, this is was on point. So thanks a repeat place to go to.“

“Creative dishes, good service“

“Being from Germany, bread plays an important role for me. This bakery is the best I have visited in the US! We bought 6 different loaves and thwy all taste fantastic...European Rye or Olive Fougasse, absolutely amazing. Staff were knowledgeable and super friendly. I will be back.“

“This place is amazing! Their pastries have such a creative twist on traditional favorites, and everything tastes so fresh and rich. I arrived about 15 minutes before they opened, and the line was already out the door — that tells you everything you need to know! The staff is super friendly, and it’s absolutely worth a visit if you’re in the Tucson area.“

“Too bad we won't be going back. 😔
The dining experience was amazing. As a Flint Native I was looking forward to continuing to patronize this establishment and I even bragged to my relatives up north about the coneys. As my birthday is this week, I asked my husband to take me there to try your dinner menu. We went on a day when we happened to not have our dog with us. We did not know that pets are not allowed on the patio until today. Had we known then, we would not have gone to eat that day at all. Our well behaved senior has been all over the country and eaten in establishments that are considered 4 and 5 stars. I have a strict policy that if my dog is not allowed on the patio outdoors, an establishment can not get my business. If this policy changes, I would be more than happy to return.“

“Excelent food“

“First thing I say when we walk in, "OMG this place smells AMAZING!!", and tasted even better! Best falafel and gyro I've ever had!! I like that the falafel is patties instead of balls like most places. It was cooked perfectly..crispy crunchy on the outside, soft and almost cake-like on the inside. You get 4 cakes to the order plus pita bread, cucumbers and tomatoes. The gyro is HUGE!! I couldn't even pick it up to try and eat it until I ate some of the meat out of it, which btw, is flavored so beautifully that you don't really need the tzatziki sauce but definitely worth putting on bc the flavors of both go together so well! I HIGHLY recommend going to Istanbul if you want outstanding Mediterranean food in a good atmosphere! This place definitely get 👍👍 from this food enthusiast!!“

“Very good Atencion! And nice place . 👍“

“Holy Moly, this is now my number one favorite restaurant in Tucson. I’ve never had such consistently delicious and perfectly cooked food in my life! My family and I went, shared an order of the blueberry lemon pancakes, and each had our own meal. Each and every item we ordered was absolutely phenomenal. And the portions are huge!!!! Thank you so much, Baja Cafe, for turning out scrumptious food!!!!!“

“Amazing gelato with crunchy delicious variety of cones available. Super nice employees (please tip them) that are very personable, professional and quick to help their customers. I was never a fan of gelato until I had Bella's. Totally hooked...I'd eat it daily if I could. 😃🐾🐕“

“👍Great atmosphere. Friendly staff ...I'll be back ......“

“Good Morning, I wanted to express my gratitude for such wonderful and delicious Pan Dulce. Being born in Tijuana, Baja California and raised in Los Angeles, California my entire life . I thought I would never find this exquisite baked delights. La Estrella Bakery transported me to wonderful time of my childhood. I now reside in Oro Valley, AZ . I came to your bakery and had such a pleasant experience with your wonderful staff. May God continue to bless you and all of your hard work and of course your entire staff for creating these wonderful and delightful baked goods and most definitely your delicious Tortillas. 😊🙏🏻❤️🇲🇽 Sincerely, New Customer Salvador Horta“

“Finally tried Mojo, and it did not disappoint! Food, drink, and service were wonderful. I grew up on the east coast and have missed Cuban food; so happy to have a spot here in Tucson! I love that there were several sampler options so I could try a variety of dishes on my first visit: rum flight (silver), Plato Mixto, and Taste of Havana were all delicious. Will definitely be returning to try the rest of the menu. Shout out to our server who was welcoming and attentive!“

“really good food and they are very welcoming“

“Turkish Kebab House absolutely deserves all the praise! I was tasked with placing a large, last-minute after-show order of nearly 12 meals for the Modest Mouse band and crew. Despite the size of the order and the time crunch, the team accepted the challenge with zero hesitation and no attitude whatsoever.
Not only did they prepare everything perfectly, but the entire order was ready in just about an hour—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully packaged. Their professionalism and positive attitude truly stood out, especially in a situation that could have been stressful.
Because of this experience, I will be recommending Turkish Kebab House to all my clients, colleagues, and friends. Exceptional service like this deserves recognition, and this team proved they can handle high-pressure orders with grace and excellence.
Thank you, Turkish Kebab House, for taking such great care of us!“

“Lemongrass is such a charming and welcoming spot, full of character. The food is seriously delicious, and you can tell everything is made fresh and from scratch. It has that real home-cooked feel that’s hard to find.

When it gets busy, the wait can be a bit longer, but that’s honestly just because they’re making everything to order. They are great about giving you a heads-up if things are running a little slow.

All in all, definitely worth it: amazing food, made with care.“

“Simply delicious. Friendly server, short wait for food, affordable. Loved the iced mint tea too.“

“This was amazing staff and atmosphere the food was so good thank you for the hospitality“

“Best pizzas and in my opinion the best olive oil cake in Tucson. After a work day at the ceramic studio I stop by TIME MARKET to decompress and relax while enjoying green tea and a slice of pizza.“

“The service at Zayna is always so quick and friendly, the food is delicious. Highly recommend, one of our favorite places in Tucson💜“

“Food is AUTHENTIC Mexican and absolutely delicious! Staff is super friendly and amazing people! Definitely recommend 💯“

“A CHINGONERIA OF FOOD!!!! I remember when my dad took us to Tijuana for food! The coolest thing is that they are pure women! The net ?!! They had a line and that's how I knew it was going to be delicious! Very friendly! They apologized for the wait but for those tacos I waited hours!!!!“
