50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Bradenton

“Fabulous burgers and fries. Great service. I highly recommend.“

“A really nice place for breakfast. And, our server, Celene made it perfect.“

“I made reservations for my friend's birthday and 2 other guests were joining us. Unfortunately the reservation went to another Tiramisu in another city. Therefore, no reservations showed when our party arrived. The host was icey, lacked empathy or understanding. He was extremely demeaning and haughty. Finally sat us at a table next to the kitchen which was appreciated. Our waiter was stellar and made everything feel friendly again. The food was outstanding......every course. Im a local for 48 years but the host made me feel like an idiot. Never smiled (not to anyone else arriving later). Maybe not the best first impression to offer your patrons.“

“It's my 1st time @ an Indian restaurant like this 1. The service is great and friendly. Also, the food is so delicious. Especially the Alu Samosa and the Mango Lassi because they're officially my favorite stuff.“

“The buffet on Saturdays is excellent!“

“Root & Seed Cafe is absolutely my type of place! From the moment you walk in, you can feel how much heart and care goes into everything they do. The service is wonderful, the atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the owners are truly such wonderful people.

I also love that everything is made fresh! And the gluten-free desserts are a huge bonus for me. It’s so nice to find a place where I can enjoy delicious, fresh desserts without feeling like I’m missing out.

Five stars all around!!! fresh food, amazing service, a beautiful atmosphere, and genuinely kind owners. You can really taste and feel the care that goes into everything. Highly recommend Root & Seed Cafe! ❤“

“Excellent food and excellent service!!“

“Most amazing German food that I’ve ever had. Servers were very friendly & knowledgeable about the dishes that the chef creates. Add in authentic German beer and this place is a must visit. Definitely worth the drive if you are anywhere nearby. I could eat here every meal as there are many options and everything tastes wonderful. Sehr gutt und wundebar!“

“First time tonight and I LOVE this place! The owners and staff were friendly and gracious. I didn't eat, but the menu looked great. I'm excited to go to more events here!“

“Was recommended this place by friends who recently visited, who said how nice the view was and a fun place to go and watch sunset. We weren’t disappointed. Beautiful view, and smart modern restaurant. We were seated after a few minutes while they cleaned the table, and then completely ignored for over at least 10-12 minutes before our server came over, after I asked the hostess who walked past again if we could have our server come and take drinks orders. She eventually came and took drinks orders and practically ignored us after. Needing to stop her to ask if I could have my empty soda refilled, again to ask if we could order food, then again later for another drink. It wasn’t even that busy. She was polite enough but clearly not experienced. It put a dampener on the whole evening, which was a special one for my partner and I. I will return for a second visit, as our friends enjoy it and we enjoyed the view. But I’m hoping the service is improved. Pizza was very nice.“

“I have been here twice now & both times have ordered the same. Order is Pad Woon Sen & Green Curry - both with chicken, medium heat, to-go, no bell pepper or celery.
Pro:
Followed special instructions perfectly!
Green curry is awesome 🤩 so good, definitely recommend.
Each meal plated 1/2 of each entree & got 3 complete meals out of this for $34.
Pad Woon Sen, (1st time), very flavorful with a lot of fresh, crunchy veggies & plenty of noodles.
Ready very quickly.
Con:
Pad Woon Sen, (2nd time), very bland with an abundance of veggies but mostly onions & carrots, not a lot of noodles ☹ & very, very dry.
They put curry in the crab rangoon so we did not order any. 😿“

“My fiancé and I had dinner here earlier this evening and it was sooo good! We had the basil fried rice with scallops for the entree and vegetable egg rolls for the appetizer. We will definitely be back! Delicious food and great atmosphere!“

“Why 25 characters? Good food!“

“My favorite place for breakfast. Have been many times and will continue. We tell all of our friends they need to go!“

“We tried Rice Bowl for the first time last night and it was all delicious. I had intended to get sushi but ordered the Chicken Udon and was so glad I did. The noodles and veggies were in a delicious broth, not in a heavy sauce. We also ordered the fried gyoza app which was delicious, and the kids meal was shrimp with fried rice which she said was amazing- and a generous portion for a kid. We will be coming back regularly- love a good sit-down Asian restaurant with a lot of options!“

“Totally worth the wait for their re-opening! Absolutely amazing food and cocktails and not as pricey as one would think! Amazing, knowledgeable staff…listen to what they say and you won’t be disappointed.“

“Amazing Tacos!! ❤️ Every type of taco you can think of trying! Shrimp/Fish are my favorites!“

“Healthy food that is Delicious.“

“Was there tonight when my family and I witnessed an incident in the parking lot. Management was quick to rush in as well and even gave a discount on our bill bc we jumped up to assist when we saw what happened. We’ve always had great food and service there and tonight was no exception. Well done!“

“Our first time here with our shy rescue dog and we were welcomed warmly. Our waitress brought over large bowl of ice water for him. The eggs Benedict and shrimp with grits dishes were presented nicely and were so delicious 😋. Will be coming back to this sweet neighborhood gem. Staff so friendly. Nice size portions. Wine was delicious too!“

“Happy to find this wonderful place, we have been often and every meal was delicious, good service & the specials are delicious“

“5 🌟 every time we come. Staff respectfully remembers us is definitely a plus especially the way the world is spinning. Thank you for a great experience from day one!!“

“Danny Fernandez is BACK!!!! The REAL Danny's Pizzeria is BACK!!!! I was soooo happy to see Danny behind the counter when I walked in. I have been going to Danny's Pizzeria for years until the new ownership happened, ate once, twice, three times then never again. Now that Danny is back, I am sure it will be a weekly event once again. Had lunch 12/10/22, service was 100% top notch, and the food was excellent, as it once was! Thank you for coming back!“

“We have never had Thai Cuisine before and could not be more pleased with the food. Everything was delicious and full of flavor. The service was excellent, portion size and prices were great! Highly recommend 🙂!“

“Very good! Broad selection, the tuna (raw) was very good quality and fresh. The house-made kimchi was excellent!“

“Our favorite restaurant!!! We're regulars and have lunch there several times a month. The food is that good! Everything is always fresh and delicious! I've tried almost everything on the menu and every single item is excellent! Try the shrimp/steak hibachi when you go, my fav! Prices are very reasonable too! The staff is amazing as well! They're always super friendly, kind and deliver amazing service with a smile! Highly recommended and five stars PLUS!“

“We LOVE IT HERE!! All you need to know is , it's yummy 😋 dog friendly, family friendly, outdoor seating and generous portions. Thank you
😊 🍦 🍧🍨🍩 Food is always fresh & delicious, you're a total psychopath if you don't like sweet treats! WICKED GOOD 👍“

“One of the best Chinese restaurants we’ve found since moving here!

We tried Dim Sum Kitchen yesterday and were seriously impressed. Everything we ordered was delicious, and we’ll definitely be going back.

The chive dumplings were AMAZING — easily one of our favorites. The crispy spring rolls were so good, and the sweet & sour chicken was excellent. And the Hunan beef… mmmmmmm! 😋 So flavorful and probably the standout of the meal. The crispy fresh vegetables with this dish were my high light… mmm mmmm good.

The only thing that didn’t really do it for us was the egg roll — it was just okay compared to everything else.

Just a heads-up: this is carry-out style, so there isn’t table service, but they do have tables inside if you want to eat there. Honestly, that didn’t bother us at all because the food more than made up for it.

Highly recommend! If you love Chinese food, definitely give this place a try. We’re already looking forward to our next order! 🥟🥢🔥“

“I was looking for Smoothies in the area and stumbled across this gem; which isn't far from my job. And with me being spontaneous I figured I'd give it a shot. I just recently moved to the area and am still learning my way around. I work and workout 6 days a week, so having a proper healthy and balanced meal to get me thru the day is a great mandatory. As someone who is highly obsessed with fruit and vegetables, this is my GO-TO for a quick pick me up. I love everything about this establishment!“

“My wife and I came for dinner. The New Age Flatbread was AWESOME. Crust was amazing.. Shrimp Cocktail Great! and Osso Bucco was to die for! The meat fell off the bone and melted in you mouth. Kirby was our server and was just terrific.. She was friendly and very attentive.“

“On our way to Anna Maria island and we found this gem! Oh my goodness was it DELICIOUS! Service was great and the food was even better. 1000/10!“

“My total dinning experience was amazing. The only thing they should change is the music, it's an Italian Reztsurant it should be Italian music“

“Had the Vermicelli bowl with grilled pork and eggroll. Food is really good. Only thing I didn't like is their fountain soda which tastes like it's made with tap water. Other than that, service and atmosphere were great and welcoming.“

“Listen, I’m a perfectionist. I don’t think everyone deserves a perfect review. This place however, is the best place I’ve been. My husband who is also extremely picky with sushi/seafood, etc., will not go anywhere else. His family, our family, anyone we speak to loves this place and will drive 30+ minutes even when we will pass 5+ other sushi places on the way there. When we don’t have the time we spend an extra 30+ dollars getting it delivered because we have been spoiled here.“

“OFFICIALLY the best breakfast in town!!! FRESH FOOD COOKED TO PERFECTION!!! Highly highly recommend me & my husband we’re first timers to this metro diner we ordered the San Francisco Benedict’s & the breakfast burger honestly never had food that tasted so good eggs were perfect burger cooked perfect seasoned fries AMAZING avocado tomato were FRESH METRO DINER JUST GOT TWO REGULARS FOR LIFE!!! I cannot express enough to the cooks hostess and especially our waitress Payton!! (Sorry if I spelt it wrong) such a amazing waitress!!!! She needs a raise for sure!!! THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR THE GREAT EXPERIENCE KEEP BEING AMAZING!!!“

“I tried SoFresh The other day for the first time and loved it. Fresh and healthy. This is my kind of eating. I’m so glad they are nearby because I will certainly be going back.“

“We love this place!…the food and ambience are fantastic!, plus the service is first rate!…In fact we had the same server we had last May when we were here on vacation and she remembered us!, now that we will be living down here, definitely will be eating there a lot more!…If you want great home cooked food, with Vegan, Vegetarian and Gluten Free options, this is the place to go!!!“

“First place we stopped on our trip was a gem! Amazing food, wonderful service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Pineapple surf was soooo good today“

“Delicious food friendly attentive service ! Big menu many mouth watering choices!“

“Poppo’s is a gem! The food is real food, and the ingredients are sourced locally when possible and just absolutely delicious. In addition, the staff is remarkable. They serve you with a smile that is genuine, and are quick to fix any issue or problem. I cannot overstate how amazing this place is, it is not to be missed.“

“Muy linda la atención, muy amables, la comida deliciosa, los drinks exelente, servicio rápido, lugar limpio, nos encantó, gracias vamos a volver“

“The overall service use to be amazing at this Olive Garden. We have come here several times over the years and this is the worst front staff I’ve ever experienced. I checked in and was told it would be a 15 minute wait and told them that I had people coming but instead of seating us after 25 minutes passed I came up to ask the pregnant hostess if they were waiting for my party or something because we’ve been waiting and she was like oh yeah yeah we are without so much as looking at me or apologizing for the wait. There were several of them up there that were just laughing and joking around unprofessionally and the pregnant hostess was eating up there talking with the other ladies at the podium while they ignored us. She disappeared completely for several minutes and after 30 minutes I asked a girl who showed up if we were going to be seated because my party was waiting. She said she would check because she just got there. She went to find the pregnant hostess and told her we were waiting 30 minutes and my daughter overheard her denying it. I’m just not used to that at any restaurant. If you tell me 15 minutes and it’s not busy in there then we have better be seated whether we are waiting for people to arrive or not. It put me in such a terrible mood that I wanted to leave but thankfully our waiter came right away and was amazing. He was very attentive and kind and I felt he deserved a good tip. What made me write this review was when we left there were a gaggle of women at the front with the pregnant hostess and we all noticed that they just stared at us and didn’t say the usual thank you have a good night. No one bothered to politely open the door like they have always done for us in the past. You just knew that they we’re talking bad about you. If this is what this Olive Garden restaurant is turning into then I have to stop coming. I don’t know what’s up with those women but this is their place of work not a place to gossip and bullshit about their life or talk shit about their paying customers who are there to be treated with some measure of respect and kindness when they are out with their family for dinner. I hope a manager sees this review and addresses this issue of plain rudeness. We are also not white and so obviously white people were being treated better and seated immediately. By the way, our pregnant hostess was black but for some reason thinks it’s ok to be rude to us. If this ever happens to us again, a complaint will definitely be filed to your corporate management or the BBB. I will not tolerate this behavior in front of my family.“

“great food and service... we will be back“

“The manager KATE is AMAZING! She is the best hands on, team orientated, hospitality centered manager I have ever seen. We love chili’s and coming to this location was a real treat all because of her. <3 The food and service was excellent as always.“

“Awesome experience for the whole family.“

“Staff should be upfront at all times not chatting on the back and then when you call them they get mean and rude to you“

“The boys working the taco Tuesday shift today around 3pm were doing a phenomenal job. I was off my game today and spilling things and making my order confusing and they handled everything so seamlessly and kindly! Super impressed by the service today!“

“We have enjoyed the dim sum here on a number of occasions and found it to be very good. The atmosphere of the customer areas seems comfortable and clean so for these two points the restaurant gets high marks. Where it fails to meet expectations is in the cleanliness of its restrooms. They seem filthy, even observed a bottle of bowl cleaner on the floor next to the toilet.
They say never to eat in a restaurant with poor restroom conditions and this is one that could turn customers away. Not sure we’ll return but if we do I hope to see an improvement in their restrooms as it is desperately needed.“

“Blueberry Heaven, are my favorite with protein and low fat yogert go big on Friday five dollars all... Yummy“
