50 Best Vegan Restaurants in New Haven

“Modern Apizza is our favorite pizza restaurant. Always a must when we are in New Haven. Nothing comes close in Florida“

“Incredibly delicious and unique!“

“Fabulous bacon and mushroom pizza“

“Waiters, food and atmosphere get five stars⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“First found Ninth Square at CompassionFest! Food SO delicious & healthy - now that we’ve found their New Haven place we can get the food more often. The pictures & videos make my mouth water!!!😋“

“Was visiting New Haven last weekend (from Brooklyn) and had the pleasure of eating at Olmo not once, not twice, but three times!! For breakfast, every morning of my visit. The bagels so good, the menu so mouthwatering, the people so kind and welcoming— I couldn’t stay away! And I’m still thinking about it a week later…

The first morning I got the Hot Pastrami. It is, and i cannot stress this enough, DELICIOUS! A generous helping of pastrami—rivaling that of Katz Deli—paired with a mind-blowingly yummy spinach-artichoke schmear and some pickled onions sandwiched between a sesame seed bagel. Cannot recommend enough.

The next morning I had to try a new schmear (the schmear selection is thrilling). I went with beet and dill veggie on an onion bagel. Crunchy, refreshing, sweet. Yum.

I am a creature of habit so, despite my desire to try the basil feta schmear, the third morning I went with the Hot Pastrami again. Turns out lightning can strike twice, it was just as delish the second time.

This is a place that clearly loves their clientele and their craft. They were communicative, efficient, and so friendly. You immediately feel welcome. A must visit for any bagel lover who finds themself in New Haven!!“

“Bella Casa Vegana is a separate vegan menu at Costa Pizza. There is very clearly signage once inside the restaurant letting you know about all the many vegan options. The vegan pizza itself is fantastic and fairly priced. The crust, sauce, and cheese are all fantastic. The restaurant itself has minimal seating, but that’s to be expected in this sort of establishment. I would highly recommend this to any vegan looking to experience some New Haven pizza!“

“You must eat here! One of the great meals of all time. The food is spectacular and the service is just as good.“

“Absolutely delicious food in tremendous service!“

“This review is long over do. This women has been blessed with the gift of baking. She makes things up and it comes to life. I can't go there too much because she has caused my family and I to become addicts. Baby she make a sweet potato cookie. Its not your average cookie plop some dough and bake. It has a buttery sweet crispy outside and in the middle a creamy sweet potato surprise. I have tried a lot of things in this bakery but that cookie is my goto. I dont buy just one. I get one for the car and one for home that I cut in 4s so I can stretch it out. I am currently in cookie rehab right now but I will be relapsing on Tuesday. Go check it out I promise you won't be disappointed. I forgot to tell you the customer service is phenomenal and the staff is amazing I will add pictures when I go back. See you there.“

“Munchies makes the BEST cheese steak in CT hands down!! Sooo good!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The best pizza truck around! Our entire experience from the office booking the truck to the crew making and serving pizza was a pleasure. Rick is a rockstar. Amazing communication. He was professional and on point. He timed everything out perfectly. Donnie was a master on the oven and professional as well. The servers Lily and Tyler were also fantastic and very friendly. Thank you very much for having a part in making this a special day for us!“

“Feels like an Arab home-cooked meal. Authentic food, great music, amazing and kind service.

Also an amazing place to just sit and do work while drinking Turkish coffee and enjoying baklava.

They also do an outstanding thing for the community helping train refugees and helping them find employment or build businesses.“

“I discovered this store when I was High School, around 1977. Graduated 1978 from Wibur Cross. They were on Edgewood Avenue and Platt Street. Then they moved to Whalley Avenue. I still tell people about this store. Always love it. 🥰“

“Very intimate setting. The wait staff were very friendly. My wife and I were celebrating our anniversary and the manager came over to congratulate us as well as give us a complimentary toast.“

“The best soft serve ice cream I have ever had! I have to go every week!“

“Everything was great! My wife and I brought our two kids (14 & 11) there yesterday evening and everyone enjoyed themselves. The oysters, shrimp, and clam chowder couldn’t have been more fresh. Kids enjoyed their lobsters and our steaks were cooked perfectly. Our youngest thought our server Adam looked like Tom Brady lol. All around perfect- thank you!“

“First time here and went with a traditional cheese pie. YUMMY!! The sauce is amazing and for us it had just the right amount of cheese. Some will find the flop factor a negative but I truly didnt care as the taste made up for it!! We will for sure be back to try more menu items!“

“Great atmosphere. Food is worth it—not vegan? Still delish. Try it—you’ll see!“

“I love this ice cream place it is great place for friends and family!!“

“I dined at Rawa one time but I recomme the lamb chops, pita, spicy chicken wings, chicken breast on a bed of lentils.“

“Our hotel was right across the street, so one night we decided to grab a late-night snack with a beer. This place delivered exactly what we wanted. The tots were hot, crispy, and seasoned to perfection. The boneless wings were fairly standard, but they met our expectations.“

“Excellent dining experience! Our waitress Paola S was fantastic. The food was delicious and the menu full of great selections. One dish needed to be sent back ( our fault) and replaced and it was handled quickly and without any fuss. We will definitely return when we come back to New Haven.“

“This is my most favorite spot to grab breakfast and lunch. The entire staff, especially Jess is awesome. They treat you like family. Would recommend to everyone.“

“The food was amazing, and the spice of the food was potent and flavorful! It was fantastic!“

“This is the best (if not only) place in the New Haven, CT area to get authentic Levantine food, including / especially toum. Eating here brings me back to past vacations in Lebanon and the incredible food and company I enjoyed there; for those that prefer other cuisines, this place has you covered as well! Pizza, pasta, the full gamut of Mediterranean food!“

“I have been eating at Claire’s since the 80’s when I moved to Ct. from a Midwest college town filled with healthy dining options. It felt like home then and still does. The biggest problem is deciding which special to try. I seldom make it to the “ regular “ menu…I’ve traveled to 45 states and 35 countries and Claire’s is in my top 10 worldwide…seriously.“

“Usually their salads are delicious. But today i came by, right when they opened up (prob a mistake) and ordered a crispy chicken salad … My salad was done in about 5 mins …. ( how can chicken be cooked that fast?) Anyway, i tried to eat the salad for dinner. My croutons were stale, the bread was stale and tomatoes along with the cucumbers tasted like theve been sitting out from the night before. I doubt chicken was freshly made. I’m so disappointed. Next time i know not to come right when they open up.“

“One of our favorite spots“

“First time there. Wanted to try a different place than our usual couple of places. Very interesting menu with a huge variety, we had to bring home 3 different pies to try, and they were great! Can’t wait to go back and try more. 🍕❤️“

“Excellent dinner and very friendly staff“

“We ordered cupcakes for two different parties in one weekend and Sweet Mary’s did not disappoint. Great, yummy, moist cupcakes and terrific service. Sweet Mary’s is the best for cupcakes hands down!!!“

“Had the beef & cheese empanada and it was one of the best I’ve ever had. Fresh, hot and filled with meat. The chicken was white meat and was very tender and flavorful. I’ll definitely be back when I’m in the area.“

“we went today and of course I had to have the clam pizza. It was amazing! Our waitress Charlotte was so informative and had a great personality. She has been there for 33 years and was so fun to talk to. Can't wait to go back!!“

“Take it on breakfast time with my fam, all good quality dish, good ingredient and all staff are very nice to me and my fam with 3yrs old daughter.

Easy going place, all food serve very quick with no complaint at all.

Will come back definitly when in New Haven“

“Thoroughly enjoyed our first visit today, the food was delicious and the service EXCEPTIONAL. Thank you for offering the GLUTEN-FREE injera and all of the creative vegetarian dishes... we loved the fresh and flavorful salads (Key Sir Selata and the Timatim Fitfit), then had the best Ater Kik and Tikel Gomen I have ever had in my life! We will definitely return, and highly recommend to anyone in search of authentic Ethiopian cuisine!“

“I didn't request any service and no one offered me any service until I walked through a few times to try and see everything that they have.

I was very curious. I saw a lot of things that I never saw before. I wasn't really asking for anything. I was just waiting around until the time of my appointment in the neighborhood.

Overall, it's a nice place to pick up some essentials, right in the neighborhood.“

“Excellent food. High quality breakfast.“

“10/10 as a first impression dinner. took my wife here for her birthday and she's deciding if it's top 3 or top 5 of restaurants we've been to. will be back. great service and extremely tender and flavorful dishes.“

“Bowl=AMAZING Staff= VERY FRIENDLY AND PATIENT Will definitely be returning!!“

“Awesome food vindaloo was 🔥“

“Food was excellent and very healthy. I had the chicken and broccoli combination platter. It was some of the best I ever had. Chicken was nice and tender and very crispy. Broccoli and carrots were very delicious. Definitely will be going back. House of Chao is my new favorite Chinese restaurant. Would recommend to anyone who is passing through the Westville New Haven area and looking for good quality Chinese food ??“

“Best coffee shop in the neighborhood. Friendly but fast service, yummy food, good music in background. Cozy. It's a keeper! Ps: their lavender lemonade is the ultimate summer drink)“

“The food was amazing! Very impressed. Love the vibes.. very cool spot and reasonably priced.“

“This restaurant was well worth the hour drive to get there. They served the best potato salad I have ever had - & trust me I have tried hundreds of them in my long life. The vegetable dinner option I enjoyed today was perfect. I highly recommend the cabbage, black eye peas, and Caribbean rice along with the amazing potato salad. And I must add that the moist, scrumptious, and famous corn bread couldn’t have been better. Sandra’s is a place I will return to. I’m a vegetarian newbie who’s grateful for the nutritious, delicious food and the sweet and friendly service at this gem of a place.“
