13 Best Vegan Restaurants in Mystic

“My husband and I visited S & P Oyster Co. on our honeymoon, and it truly could not have been a more exquisite experience. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm, inviting, and perfect for a special occasion. We started with fresh oysters on the half shell, pan-seared octopus, and pan-seared scallops, each dish was beautifully prepared and absolutely outstanding. For our entrées, we enjoyed the sesame-encrusted yellowfin tuna and the homemade squid ink pasta, both of which were exceptional in flavor and quality. Our waiter, Jeff, made the night even more memorable. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and kind, offering wonderful recommendations and never rushing us. The drinks were fantastic as well and complemented the meal perfectly. S & P Oyster Co. gave us a honeymoon dinner we will never forget. We can’t recommend this place enough and can’t wait to return. We make it a point to come every year!“

“New American cuisine including perfectly executed more familiar dishes with intriguing new ones (ginger fried monkfish with green curry - excellent). Also a strong wine list as well as beguiling cocktails. Beautifully and comfortably designed as well.“

“Everything I've had at Nanas has been excellent! my favs are the drinks, risotto balls, pizza and hot donuts! The staff is the best!“

“Such a gem! The desserts were absolutely beautiful and they tasted just as incredible as they looked. The display case was so impressive, it honestly made it hard to choose. Everything looked fresh and crafted with care. I’ll definitely be back soon to make my way through more of the menu.“

I definitely recommend giving this place a chance if you haven't yet! The Staff and Owner make sure that everyone present is happy, safe, and satisfied. 🙌“

“I can’t eat eggs or gluten, so I thought I would be sunk here, but guess what?! I wasn’t. Delicious options. Great recommendations and service! Delish.“

“The staff was amazing and the ice cream was mind blowing. Of all the local, handmade ice cream shops I've visited, this one is by far the best! Chocolate was amazing and the selection was extensive! A must if you're ever in downtown Mystic!!“

“Mystic Pizza has by far, some of the best pizza I've ever eaten. the staff was great and very friendly. Ask for Alex, she was wonderful.“

“Our first time visit to the area and Mystic Diner was recommended. We enjoyed their breakfast several mornings. Clean, friendly, attentive staff, many selections, breakfast all day, reasonable prices. Lots of desserts but didn't try any. They have a take out window. If it looks like they're packed and long wait, go in anyway, the place is huge. It happened to us and there were plenty of tables/booths available.“

“We didn’t have the best experience for Valentine’s Day but we came back and had a much more enjoyable experience tonight ! Service and food were both great . We will be back 😀“

“Kendall was sweet & gave great service! 10/10“

“📅 09.16.25 WRITTEN REVIEW Big Al’s Reel Reviews - EP.163 🍕 Mango’s Wood-Fired Pizza Co. 💎 'Big Al's 💎 Gem Spot' Old Mystic Village, CT This afternoon I pulled up to the Village of Mystic straight from BMW of Warwick in my new BMW M850i Gran Coupe to see if Mango’s could raise the B.A.R.R... because I was hungry. And they absolutely did. In fact, this spot just became a Big Al’s 💎 Gem Spot. Here’s how it all went down: 1️⃣ Wood-Fired Wings (Buffalo) - $15.95 BOMB! 💣 Eight perfectly wood-fired wings- crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, with buffalo sauce that hits just right. The blue cheese dressing deserves its own shoutout 💣😎 2️⃣ Oma’s Real Meatball Sandwich- $17.50 BOMB! 💣 These wood-roasted, hand-rolled meatballs were full of flavor and smothered in rich pomodoro sauce, tucked inside toasted rustic bread with melted provolone and parmesan. It comes with potato chips and a fresh crunchy pickle. 3️⃣ Small Mango’s Mozzarella Pie- ½ Mozzarella/Funky Monkey- $19.95 💣 DOUBLE BOMB! The cheese half? The best cheese pizza I’ve had on this side of the Thames River, perfect crust, flawless sauce-to-cheese ratio. The Funky Monkey half? 💣💣 DOUBLE BOMB! The heat level was spot-on and the flavor combo was straight 🔥. Verdict: Mango’s brought the flavor, the service (big shoutout to my server Jessica, who was mad cool 😎 🙌🏾), and the vibes. This is officially a Big Al’s Gem Spot, and one I’ll be coming back to again. ☝🏾❤️ - Big Al Mayo “See you on the Rebound, Peace✌🏾out”“
