50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in New Haven

“The highlights were excellent food and friendly welcoming staff. Until the next time... ☺️“

“This place is the best restaurant outside of Naples Italy. My wife and I have been to Naples many times and Zenelli’d reminds us so much of the restaurants in Naples.“

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

“I came from Virginia to visit my sister and kept hearing about it and wanted to try it. The Fresh Tomatoes Pizza was excellent! The staff was very friendly. Loved it!!“

“Stopped into Brick Oven as a suggestion from my high school buddy who lives in New Haven. Will be a place I frequent going forward in my travels to New Haven. The pizza was great but the customer service was even greater.. The owner actually took the time to converse with us and to have good pizza and good customer service puts this spot high on my list of places to go period. Da prez“

“This is the tenth person I put on to this place. He was sooooo in love with the margarita pizza. Usually I get the shrimp pesto (my favorite) but I didn’t want to scare him. You would’ve thought he was going crazy while eating. Thank for the many years I’ve came it turned out perfect :)“

“@shellandbonesoysterbarandgrill ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a wonderful birthday party with my beloved wife. Her request this time was seafood, and I indulged her with this excellent decision. I highly recommend it. Especially the BOUILLABAISE 49 Scallops + Mussels + Manila Clams + Rock Shrimp + Black Bass in their red sauce was delicious! The salmon and the kids' meal were good, even though it was a Monday, the place and the bar had a great atmosphere. Food: BOUILLABAISE $49 Scallops + Mussels + Manila Clams + Rock Shrimp + Black Bass (It was delicious, my darling) SALMON WITH PEPITA COVER $40* Spiced Pumpkin Puree + Broccoli Rabe + Tomatillo Green Sauce DRINKS: Mojitos Margaritas We're almost there; An excellent place, we loved it so much that we made a reservation through Opentable, which never fails. I recommend going to Bajada del Sol. I highly recommend it. Shell & Bones Oyster Bar and Grill“

“The best friendly service with a smile and best pizza around ???❤“

“It's going into our rotation of favorite restaurants on Wooster! Food, service, everything was amazing. My only 2 critiques was there wasn't enough heat in the Fra Diablo sauce or my expresso. But I'm going back. Love it there.“

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

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

“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!!!😋“

“Incredibly delicious and unique!“

“Nice little spot with very good food. Have been here once to sit down and once for takeout, both timed all the food we had was great. Not the biggest place but it seems like it works for their needs. Service was also very good. Also all the food is halal.“

“Love it !! Unique experience“

“Absolutely delicious food in tremendous service!“

“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!“

“Fabulous bacon and mushroom pizza“

“The best ever.“

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

“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. 🍕❤️“

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

“Walked into the shop and immediately there was the warmest smell of fresh cinnamon rolls in the oven - had to get some along with our coffee and so glad we did. Such a smooth iced americano and SUCH good cinnamon buns. The owner was so sweet! Glad we found this place to along around town“

“es lo mejor actividades para todos hay comida de toda clases“

“My children gave me a 85th Birthday Party at Brazi's and I cannot say enough about this wonderful Restaurant. The food, and the service that was given to me and my guests was exceptional. A day of a Happy Remembrance.“

“Chap’s Grille is truly a hidden gem! The fact that one person was in the kitchen making all the food and still delivering everything super fast and incredibly delicious. The quality, flavor, and care in every dish really show. I absolutely loved the food and the whole experience. Highly recommend!“

“Hands down the best Sushi I’ve EVER had in 40+ years. Can’t wait to go back. 👌“

“Our server Devine was amazing and so well poised. The appetizers of meatballs and their charcuterie was presented beautifully. The only issue was with dinner. We got the squid ink pasta and the filet. You could 110% taste the food was high quality and fresh but it missed the mark for us on taste. It lacked so much flavor. If you’re looking for a good simple meal with 5 star service, this is the place but if you’re looking for dishes that the chef cares about flavor and excitement, this restaurant lacks in that. It was a good experience over all but we were just disappointed because there’s so much potential for it to be a restaurant where you go back specifically for that one dish because it tasted so good.“

“One of our favorite spots“

“The food is excellent, so full of flavor!“

“I’m shocked that there’s no rating as this is the BEST pizza 🍕 I’ve ever tasted in the northeast!!!“

“Want Excellent and authentic Food , Go To Taqueria Oyameles‼️‼️ Brrrrr los duros 🔥“

“In the gritty underbelly of New Haven, where the Ivy League pretensions clash with the raw hunger of the streets, there's this unassuming joint called Menya-Gumi that's slinging bowls of ramen that could make a grown man weep. I wandered in, half-expecting another watered-down noodle farce, but goddamn, that Tori Paitan hit like a thunderclap—creamy chicken broth so rich and layered it whispers secrets of slow-simmered bones and subtle dashi, topped with a gooey ajitama egg that oozes like forbidden sin, tender chashu pork that melts on the tongue, and noodles with just the right chew to fight back. It's not some bullshit fusion gimmick; it's honest, soul-stirring washoku that transports you to a Tokyo back alley, minus the jet lag.
But don't sleep on the rest of the menu, because this place is a goddamn treasure trove. The dim sum? Those shrimp har gow are plump, translucent miracles, bursting with sweet oceanic brine and a hint of chive that cuts through like a switchblade. Pork and shrimp siu mai follow up with that perfect steamed bounce, savory as hell. Dive into the Hong Kong side for curry fish balls that pack a spicy, bouncy punch—street food elevated to art—or the giant shrimp wontons in red oil, slick with chili heat and pork-shrimp umami that lingers like a bad habit you don't want to kick. The katsu sando? Crispy fried pork on fluffy bread, simple yet profound, like a love letter to comfort. And that egg sando—Kewpie-smeared, pillowy perfection—it's the kind of thing you'd kill for after a bender.
The owner's got that quiet fire, family-run vibe that screams authenticity, portions generous enough to satisfy the hungriest bastard, and prices that won't gut your wallet. Menya-Gumi isn't just food; it's a visceral experience, a reminder that in a world full of mediocre slop, there's still places where the broth tells a story worth savoring. If you're in New Haven and you miss this, you're a fool. Five stars, no question—go now, before the crowds ruin it.“

“Catering Party @ Sally’s Apizza Fairfield On Saturday September 13, 2025, we celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary. The food, service and staff were phenomenal. We all know how great the pizza is, but the appetizers and salads were equally great. I can’t say enough about the wonderful servers, Dan and Brandon. There were efficient, kind, friendly and polite. They went out of their way to insure everyone was having a great time. The bartenders and other staff went a long way to help make everyone enjoy the party. I also want to thank the General Manager, James Layfield and the Catering Manager, Helen Blanchard for their exceptional service and hospitality. Sally’s Apizza @ Fairfield deserves a 5 star rating for making our event the success it was. Thanks so much“

“such a nice cozy restaurant. love going there for brunch in Sundays. everyone is so friendly“

“Excellent food! Excellent service!“

“AMAZING VEGAN SUBS AND PASTA DISHES.“

“I’m a late-comer to original Frank Pepe’s due to distance. Oh, what I have been missing! You do need to be strategic about timing because it’s very popular — because it’s exceptionally good. Fairly easy access from I-95.“

“Excellent dinner and very friendly staff“

“The food is super tasty and the service is very nice.“

“Had a great meal, the crab cakes were delicious! Love the ambiance! Waitress was fantastic with great service. For such an elegant charming restaurant, was disappointed the hostess was dressed in leggings and crop top …. took away from our first impressions unfortunately.“

“Ben is an amazing sushi chef! Friendly, creative, and like watching an artist! Enjoyed our sushi bar experience! Thank you!“

“We stopped by for lunch and had the best hamburgers that we have ever eaten. The french fries were unbelievable and were perfectly cooked. The hamburgers were very flavorful. The atmosphere was incredible and the wait staff did an amazing job. Joseph, the owner, came out and spoke with us, and we told him that these were the best hamburgers we ever had. If you love hamburgers, then this is a destination location for you. The food is that good! You will not be disappointed!!!“

“Awesome food vindaloo was 🔥“

“This restaurant is all vegan. I didn't see anything on their menu that isnt. Everything is clearly labeled vegan as well, which is nice. Ordered grub hub and got a lot of food. Got the wings, garlic knots, sausage and veggie sub, and Hawaiian pizza removing ham and adding pepperoni. I got tiramisu for dessert The wings and blue cheese were great. The garlic knots were as good any other place (a little hard, but tasty), and the sausage veggie sub was amazing. The pizza was not good. I ate a slice, tried eating a second and couldn't do it. Idk what was wrong with it, but I would not recommend it. Even without the toppings, the pizza itself just wasn't it. The tiramisu was ok. Really flavorless, but had the vibe of tiramisu. Wouldn't order again, but don't regret ordering it. They deliver themselves, so there's no grubhub tracking. They didn't really communicate anything to me, so when my order was late, I had no idea what was going on. But the delivery guy was nice and the order was exactly what I ordered, so I won't ding them on delivery.“

“Excellent food. High quality breakfast.“

“This is my first time trying Columbian food and I am hooked!!!!! The AL Pastor Columbian style Arepas is by far one of the most delicious things I have had in a long time. The cornbread base was sweet without being cloying and mixed with the pork and pineapple, OH MY GOD! My dish came with a side of some of the most flavorful rice I have ever had and it was topped with some sweet plantains. The serving is more than generous. I'm a big girl and I am easily getting 2 meals out of my order. The prices are very reasonable! Do yourself a favor and find this hidden gem while you are in town. You will not be disappointed!“

“Love the hotel gallery and rooftop environment!“
