50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near East Windsor

“Initially visited about 10 years ago. Hadn’t been back for. O particular reason. Recently decided to go back and we’ve been going there every couple of weeks since. Prices are very good and the food is excellent. Jason does a great job. Highly recommend.“

“Beer was fantastic. Kind of hard to see to the naked eye from the outside. Bartender was very nice and helpful. They have a side game game room which was pretty cool. Def recommend checking them out. Just snacks for food but you can order delivery from a local Italian restaurant.“

“Great experience. Definitely coming back for sure.“

“looking lovely and would like to know more details about the area ........TGIF......Hartford.......“

“I ordered a Tiramisu Martini… not on the menu. Their Bartender, Rob looked up the recipe and made it for me… Perfection! Came back and he remembered my order precisely… right down to the exact Martini!!! This guy is the real deal and the food is stellar! Props to Rob for his amazing customer service and Roberto’s for their scrumptious food.“

“Elizabeth's is our favorite restaurant. The food is always good, fresh and large portions. have tried many different entrees and they are always delicious. Especially love their veal parmigiana and the stuffed soule!“

“From the moment my brother and I entered until we left, everything from the staff to the absolute delicious food blew me away!“

“My husband & I eat there often. We go to the one in Sturbridge Massachusetts & East Windsor Connecticut. Always great service & wonderful food! The gift shop is terrific, too! They have a rewards club, I encourage everyone to join ( it's free!!) & the points add up quickly. ( save the points until you have enough for a meal. )“

“The food and people are fantastic here.“

“The food is amazingly satisfying and we love dinning in there. On top of that the customer service is great. I highly recommend it.“

“Everything g is the best at Russo's. we've tried othe Italuan Bakery's and none can compare. From their Cannoli's, Sfogliatella, Italian Cookies, and their frozen dinners are awesome also.“

“I would be there right now if they still had the chicken parm sandwich“

“I'm not cultured enough to know how this compares to all Thai food, but I know this place is the best I've had in CT. They really seem to care. A couple of examples. The meat is cut to larger sizes compared to other Thai restaurants. The fried rice actually has subtle char as it should. They are going above and beyond in a market where they could probably get away with just being average.“

“I’ve been here countless times and the food is consistently very good. The servers are always friendly too. Tonight I sat at the bar after a class and ordered grinders for takeout. Absolutely THE best grinders we’ve had in forever. My veggie and cheese grinder was LOADED with veggies! My husband’s grinder had so much nest he could have created 2 more grinders. Thank you Soula and staff. You are all top notch!“

“Season pass holders at six flags. Come from Albany NY. We never make the trip without stopping at Nicky’s!! Delicious food, great prices, and excellent service!! Can’t wait to see you again, this summer!!“

“We stopped into Cooley’s Kitchen while visiting family in Connecticut, and somehow it already feels like part of “home” for us. 🧡🐾 Jen helped us find a table near the back during dinner rush, which ended up being perfect. Low traffic, quieter, and right by a beautiful sunset. As disabled guests with a power chair, sensory overload can happen fast for us, especially in busy restaurants. Whether intentional or not, both Jen and Aaron seemed incredibly aware of the environment around us. Several times when the sun started shining directly into our eyes, one of them would naturally step into the light while checking on us so we could keep enjoying our cheeseburger grinder without getting overwhelmed. Small thing maybe, but it mattered a lot to us. What stood out most was how human everything felt. Not forced “customer service.” Real care. Jen sat and talked with patrons and you could immediately tell this is a place locals genuinely love. Friends, families, regulars. Everyone seemed comfortable there. They checked in with us based on timing and body language, not because some policy told them to stop by every few minutes. Even the thumbs up from across the room felt personal and warm. We had a chance to talk a little about the restaurant too. Hearing that this was Aaron’s dream and that they’ve been building it together for the last two years honestly made the experience even better. You can feel the passion behind the place. Aaron being a chef and Jen helping build the community side of it makes the whole restaurant feel alive in a way chain restaurants never do. Every time we come to Connecticut, we stop here…usually more than once. Truthfully, places like this are part of why we’ve started looking at Ellington as somewhere we could someday call home, even all the way from Iowa. Good food matters. But being seen as human matters more. Cooley’s Kitchen gave us both. 🧡🐾“

“Today was my first time going to LuAnns Bakery in Downtown Hartford and yes I love their Lavender Honey Latte the people are very sweet and welcoming the atmosphere is coragus will be going back soon“

“The best Sushi around and the nicest people. Get take out from Umami. You won’t be disappointed.“

“Awesome sushi place with tons of extras“

“We are from Rhode Island and were in the area to visit Six Flags. Found Marks Restaurant using Google maps for breakfast near me. The food was excellent. The homemade bread was even better. Probably not a common comment, but my view of the kitchen from the register it’s a very clean and neat setup. I’ve worked in foodservice delivery and have always viewed restaurants from back of house which influenced my decision to eat there. I recommend Marks and will be back! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Such great food, great service!!“

“Good Breakfast/Lunch spot. It kid friendily with an old school diner vibe. The staff was welcoming and very friendily.“

“Clean Restaurant, Friendly n Welcoming Staff and Fantastic Food!!! I have No need to go to any other Restaurant cuz they have it All here..In my opinion, it's the Best Jamaican Restaurant in Hartford.“

“The seafood, the atmosphere and our server, Amanda“

“Beautiful, delicious, and extremely kind. We walked in after the restaurant was scheduled to be closed (we didn’t realize!) and were welcomed in, sat and told not to rush. The food is delicious, the service was attentive and generous. Can’t wait to come back (during their open hours!) thanks to Joe and his amazing staff for being wonderful.“

“Our favorite breakfast place. Always delicious, great portions. Friendly service. Best fried potatoes, my daughter’s favorite place.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Price, quality, service, entertainment... this place is amazing!! Got a special surprise: the honey barbecue was mesquite! And they have *farm fresh* pickles! Definitely coming here again!!!“

“Great food and excellent service“

“We are regulars here, and tonight was another example of why we will continue to frequent this business. We received the wrong order by accident when we picked it up. We called and they IMMEDIATELY rectified it by not making us come out there, but offering and delivering the correct order. We LOVE Buckland Grill and Pizza!!“

“Can't wait to try the calzone here from Calzone Kev. He said well worth it. See you soon“

“Cool that you can watch the pizzas being made fresh and baked in the large oven. Did take quite some time from when I ordered, but likely because its a very busy place and very popular. Definitely fresh pies. If going for pepperoni, it is sausage style (thick and small disks vs thinner large disks) as an FYI“

“Ate lunch on slow Sunday, tacos were very good, highly recommend, will be back for the other options. Had many options for food and drinks. Excellent service, home made style , very cute and quiet inside with light music.

Plastic plates and the other complaints don't bother me, here for the food, not the presentation.

Would recommend“

“I've been there almost every day for 2 weeks! Love this place.“

“Went here for lunch with my sister! I couldn’t believe how packed they were on a Monday! No wonder- the food and drink were ON POINT! Our waiter was very attentive and informative on wine. We shared the spinach and artichoke dip- delicious! I had the harvest vegetable bowl and added steak. The flavors mixed so well creating a palette of fresh, and my steak was cooked perfectly! My sister got the burger and a Cesar salad. The dressing was really fresh and lemony! The burger was delish as well! I will definitely be back! All the food I watched going by looked like 10 stars!“

“Amazing food!“

“Always great there..food is fresh and the staff is friendly. Im in there 3 times a week..“

“I went there today and my boyfriend and I enjoyed every bite of everything we ordered. salad was fresh, miso soup was tasty, steak and shrimp hibachi was sooooo good. the coconut shrimp was nice and fresh and crunchy. the scorpion bowl was perfect. all we needed was one and we was feeling nice. we was impressed with the cheap prices. with 67$ we both had a hibachi entree and appetizer soup , salad and a scorpion bowl for 2..... then we got a tuna mango sushi roll on the house... ❤️ You need to go and try for yourself.“

“We have a large family that loves pizza... have sampled pizza all across CT even New Haven. Ellington is hands down the best! that is why our family has been going there for 40+ years. Great pizza... Great People... Please support their business / sample their great pizza and other food...“

“I went there for the 1st time last week. Breakfast was incredible! Excellent service too and it was packed! Definitely going back!!“

“We have ordered from Yang Zi Jiang many times, and it has been consistently good when it comes to taste, portion size, and quick turnaround. That opinion also comes after trying quite a few Chinese restaurants in the area.

On our latest visit, we ordered Szechuan Chicken and Crispy Tofu with Broccoli. Both were delicious. The Szechuan Chicken had plenty of well-cooked chicken along with peppers, baby corn, mushrooms, and snow peas. It was marked spicy, though for our taste it really was not.

The Crispy Tofu came with broccoli and fried tofu coated in a very good sweet and spicy sauce. Because of the sauce, the tofu was no longer particularly crispy by the time we ate it, and the pieces were a little too large for my liking. Other than broccoli, there were no additional vegetables, but the flavor more than made up for it.

Over our previous visits, we have also enjoyed their Vegetable Fried Rice, Veg Lo Mein, General Tso's Chicken, General Tso's Tofu, Orange Chicken, and Hot & Sour Soup. Thankfully, we have yet to come across a dish we disliked. The portions have always been generous and the food consistently flavorful.

One thing I especially appreciate is their surprisingly good and creative vegetarian selection, something I do not find at many Chinese restaurants. Their menu is quite large, and despite all our visits, we probably have not tried even half of it yet.

The only limitation is that this is essentially a takeout restaurant with no dine-in option. Posting this review only after eating here multiple times — and so far, Yang Zi Jiang has earned its consistency.“

“First time here. Enjoyed everything... French onion soup was great and the prime rib sandwich was the BOMB. Will definitely be back“

“The waffles were amazing. I stopped here on a whim while I was out riding around on the bike. The service was very friendly and checked on me often. My coffee cup was always filled. I'll definitely will be bringing my wife next time to this place.“
