50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Tucson

“Great food and the people are wonderful!“

“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. ❤️❤️❤️“

“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.“

“Table side salsa is the best! Menu selection is huge and the food is so good! I had lemon butter cilantro salmon, muy perfecto! Personable management and great wait staff, highly recommend Guadalajara’s!“

“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!“

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

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“The food is amazing - even my carnivore partner has ordered multiple times. The often sold out brookie is 🧑‍🍳 😘. I remember when it went from an idea (voting on the logo) to reality. I’m soooo glad you have proven the naysayers (“this will never be successful”) wrong!!“

“Indian Twist is fantastic! The chicken tikka masala and coconut chicken were full of flavor and cooked perfectly. The chicken samosas were crispy and absolutely delicious on their own. The garlic naan was fresh and soft, a perfect side to the meal. Vegetarian options are plentiful and just as tasty. With friendly staff and a beautiful, welcoming atmosphere, this was a wonderful dining experience!“

“Wow wow wow 🤩 👌🏽⭐️🥇
This bakery is amazing!!! Sourdough bread top notch. Whole wheat bread delicious. The rosemary bagel and cinnamon bagel with cream cheese we bough super gooooood. Also got the Cuban bread fresh and delicious. The tomatoes and cheese focaccia 🤤 soooo good. Spoke to Don, the owner, he is Kind, helpful, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Made us feel welcome and valued. Must go place to get your sourdough fix.“

“just discovered this place.. i had the cuban taco plate and just yesterday, the chilaquilas? both were excellent. staff is friendly and takes their time to make sure they answer all your questions, never felted rushed. wonderful setting, very relaxing. i plan on eating my way through their menu.“

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

“Creative dishes, good service“

“as close to perfection as you're going to get.“

“Randomly stumbled upon this place while visiting Tuscon. The dude had an Earth Crisis shirt, and the soundtrack was equally rad. Super diverse range of baked goods. Donuts, berry pop tart, & smores cronuts! There were also savory goods we didn't get, but may need to later this week. We also picked the brains of the guys working about other spots around town for vegan food and coffee, and they gave us a solid list of local suggestions. All vegan. All delicious. Super nice dudes.“

“Fantastic staff. Andy was amazing and attentive. The food was outstanding. I loved my flaming cheesecake!!“

“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!“

“It’s a vibe and amazing food best burgers“

“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!!!!!“

“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.“

“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!!“

“I think it was a spicy Jim I had and the tomato burrata salad. I had water. Both were very good. Definitely eat this again and probably will soon.

Others each had pizza and a couple beverages.

Service was good.

Atmosphere was what is to be expected on a Friday night with playoffs on TV. Crowded and loud.

The place is nice.

It is not an inexpensive experience so be prepared. Easily in the $40.00+ per adult.

Childs spaghetti was very good also.“

“Excelent food“

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

“Wonderful experience for our dinner tonight,and our waiter Santi was great. Manager Monica was on it with our rewards and looking up our information.This will be our new location for Dennys“

“While I only lived in Tucson for 6 months, I heard of so many great places. This place, was one of the best. 2nd to El Guerro Canello.. It's great for Tucson, I'll definitely be back there when I'm in Tucson. If you're in Phoenix, look up Comedor Guadalajara, no affiliation to Guadalajara Original Grill. .“

“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!“

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

“I had my retirement party there a little over a week ago. The staff was great - helpful, attentive, yet unobtrusive... and also friendly and just really nice. The food was absolutely fantastic. All of my guests raved about the dinner and the cakes we had for desert. So many thanks to the chef(s) for a delicious meal. The venue was charming and, because the weather was about perfect that night, we were able to enjoy the patio as well as being inside. I can't thank the staff at Café a la C'Artl/Carte Blanche catering enough for making our celebration so great!“

“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“

“Our regular spot for a great breakfast.“

“Everything on the menu was fantastic! Even better than the photos. The staff was super friendly. Prices were very good. We came here when Blue Willow was an hour wait, and I actually liked the food here better! I had Chimichurri steak and eggs and a fancy fresh juice drink.“

“delicious food, delightful, happening atmosphere and great gluten free options!“

“This is my favorite locally-owned coffee place. Genuine service with a smile. Perfectly brewed coffee. Awesome bf burritos too! The "Cheers" of coffee hangouts. 5 Stars!“

“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. 😃🐾🐕“

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

“Great food at a great price!“

“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!“

“The service was very good and the food the same. My family had an awesome time. Thx so much.“

“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.“

“Amazing "Nopales Huevos Rancheros"!!! Great atmosphere and salsa and refried beans. Friendly staff and delightful coffee drinks. Loved it! Also, the building on 1st and Grant road brings back fond memories of my favorite Sanchez burrito company in the 1980's“

“The dishes were delicious, aromatic & flavorful we had beef & lamb which were both super tasty in the tomato sauces. The eggplant sauce with mine was super nice & our appetizer garlic fries were freshly fried too & crisp which is great cause fries are always hit or miss for me. Great friendly staff & thered nice outdoor seating here.“

“Food and service is great. Can get loud near the front of the restaurant. Of you want a quieter experience ask for a table away from the front. The front is where take our pickups are and there is a slightly annoying to annoying beep sequence when the front door is opened...depending on your tolerance.
Incredible gluten free options, GF pizza crust and baguettes are from gourmet girls 5/5 stars for taste!
Zucchini noodle dish is the bomb! GF meatballs too!!“

“This breakfast spot is a treasure. The food and service were outstanding. It is a must do for downtown Tucson breakfast“
