50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Gulfport

“The food was good and so was the service. I thought that for the price you paid, it should have included bread. Not used to paying for the bread with a meal.“

“You can always count on a delicious meal at Neptune's. Quality, consistency and excellent servers. Over many years, I have enjoyed dining there. Neptunes is definitely my favorite restaurant in Gulfport.“

“I respectfully cannot give O’Maddy less than five stars. My sister had her wedding here -hell- there’s even a drink named after my sister’s mother-in-law!

But do not worry, dear reviewer, though we are biased, we are honest.

Parking: Despite the limited parking, we happened to get a front row “princess parking” spot right in front of the building. If you don’t get as lucky as we are, there is more parking around the corner if you are willing to walk.

Atmosphere: the vibes are immaculate, as any cozy pub can be! Even more so because O’Maddy’s has big, open-air seating that looks right out onto the bay. As a girl from Oregon seeing a REAL beach (one that isn’t wild, freezing, and liable to kill you), I found it soothing to see the tropic, warm water. This evening, the Australia vs. US soccer game was on (the US won 2-0), and it would have been an amazing game to watch, but we just so happened to be seated at one of the only tables without access to a television. (This can be forgiven, though, since they were able to seat a party of 8 with no wait time.)

Food: the nephew gives his bun only to his hot dog 5/5 stars. He tried giving a thumbs up, but we are still learning that skill. Overall, the party was happy with their food. We unanimously agreed that the French fries are top tier, and all French fries need to taste and look like the ones from O’Maddys’. It’s not just greasy pub fare!

We love O’Maddys. Heck, I just flew 2k miles to eat there! I even walked away with a cool t-shirt.“

“If you're looking for a fresh take on pizza with top-notch ingredients, best pizza by far and have lived here 25 years, you absolutely have to check out
Slice of Gulfport! It's already become a new favorite spot for a delicious pie, Thank you. Sven“

“I have driven by this Café about 50 times. I went in for the first time today. I must say I am upset I waited this long to eat their amazing food. I got a full Cuban sandwich, black beans, and rice and plantain. Not only was it delicious, the sandwiches was much larger than I expected. I will only get a half next time because I could not finish this one. The customer service was amazing also.“

“Cute little restaurant, Christie was our server, she's so sweet and a excellent server, really enjoyed the food and service, will recommend to all our friends 🧡“

“Great restaurant!! Visiting Florida from Texas, came across this restaurant after the beach. Food is amazing. Never tried tandoori mushroom…as a vegetarian I’ve had tandoori FOMO. Loved IT!!

“First time at coco wood and Ronda was our server. She gave us recommendations and let me say she hit the nail right on the head. Everything was so tasty and the quality was so fresh. Best I have had on these beaches in a long time. This will be our new spot to go to enjoy unique food and not just the same old stuff you can get anywhere.“

“I highly recommend this restaurant. The flavor was amazing! I will be coming back to visit every time I am in St. Pete’s!“

“This afternoon I joined 22 friends for High Tea at Jack's. The food was better than the High Teas I had in England. Perhaps this is due to them making everything in house: fresh baked bread for the finger sandwiches, puff pastries with cream and jam, rum spiked fruit cake...all delicious. If you've never been to England, and still want the authentic experience, gather some friends and arrange with Jack's for a delightful afternoon of tea, food and conversation.“

“Simply Exquisite. A true culinary experience .“

“decided to go out to breakfast Labor Day morning and expected a crowd, got seated right away put in our order got the food so fast and ate all within 25 minutes! as soon as a table is done they clear the stuff immediately, it may be a little pricey for some but for that kind of service I'm willing to pay it food was delicious“

“Great Beers, awesome staff & unique, quality, curated events. Definitely recommend“

“Just had the ground beef tacos, with everything. after getting my taxes done. Delicious, and a great location.Will be a return customer in the future.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ABSOLUTELY THE BEST SEAFOOD EXPERIENCE ON ST. PETE BEACH ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
John John,
I felt compelled to write this because exceptional service and exceptional food deserve to be recognized.
My family and I have been vacationing in St. Pete Beach for the past six years, and one tradition we never miss is a visit to Shrimpy's. What's remarkable is that every single year we come back, the food somehow gets even better. Most restaurants struggle to maintain consistency over time, but Shrimpy's continues to raise the bar year after year.
From the moment we walked through the door until the moment we left, everything was absolutely top-notch. Our server, Jake, was outstanding. He was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel like valued guests rather than just another table. Great servers can make a meal memorable, and Jake certainly did that.
Now let's talk about the food.
I have eaten seafood all over Florida and throughout the country, and I can honestly say that Shrimpy's serves some of the finest Cajun-style seafood I have ever had. Every dish was cooked to perfection, seasoned flawlessly, and bursting with flavor. The freshness of the seafood was obvious from the first bite, and the chefs clearly take tremendous pride in what they do.
What impressed me most was that nothing felt rushed, pre-made, or ordinary. Every plate that came to our table looked incredible and tasted even better. It's rare to find a restaurant where both the kitchen and the front-of-house staff perform at such a high level, but Shrimpy's has mastered both.
John John, you have built something special. The fact that my family has returned for six straight years—and that we leave more impressed each time than the year before—says everything that needs to be said. Outstanding servers, phenomenal chefs, a welcoming atmosphere, and food that keeps people talking long after they leave.
In my opinion, this isn't just the best seafood restaurant on St. Pete Beach—it's the best Cajun seafood restaurant I've ever experienced anywhere.
If you're looking for authentic Cajun seafood done right, stop searching and go to Shrimpy's. Five stars isn't enough.
We'll absolutely be back next year, just like we've been for the last six years.
And one final piece of advice for anyone reading this review: save room for the bread pudding. Trust me. Just when you think the meal can't get any better, the bread pudding shows up and delivers the perfect ending to an already unforgettable meal.

“This is an incredible place to visit in St Petes Beach! Beer is also cold and refreshing, the Strombol is 5 Stars, and the owners and staff are world class. I plan my vacation to visit here, and end up staying for the nearby beach!“

“Cori our server was the bomb! Service, food and friendship = fun! We will be back! Signed Dixie Chicks'!“

“Love it!! Convenient, fresh and delicious poke bowls. Clean easy beach atmosphere.“

“We ate here 2 nights while staying on the beach this week. The hummus and flatbread along with their house salad for a starter was sooo good. The coconut shrimp was good and the coconut curry snapper was the best fish I have ever tasted and I grew up in Florida. The dish is not sweet and the flavor is amazing along with fish cooked perfect. Don’t hesitate to eat here it was our best meal when in St Pete Beach. Thanks Snappers we will be back!“

“I visited Daly’s Flamed Broiled Burger in Seminole today and was impressed by the quality of the food. They offer a diverse range of options. Supporting local businesses like this one is truly rewarding. The staff is very friendly.“

“Lunch at St Pete Oak and Stone was hands-down, one of the best experiences we have had while visiting St. Pete. It was all because of the exceptional service by our server, Peyton. Thank you, Peyton! Also, kudos to the manager, Stu! They both teamed up to make our afternoon the absolute best! Payton was absolutely phenomenal, attentive, friendly, and genuinely made us feel like valued guests from the very moment we sat down. She recommended the popsicle drinks from the Summertime Cocktails menu, and we decided on the Midnight Sun and Blue Crush. Both were amazing and refreshing for a hot and muggy day. We never would’ve tried them without her recommendation and we are so glad we did!

The food was also top-notch. The wings were the best we’ve ever had. We were pleased that Stu, the manager, personally delivered the food to us. He was so personable and engaging and spend a few minutes chatting with us like we were old friends. It’s not too common anymore to see a manager so involved and genuine with guests and his hospitality made our experience feel truly special.

From the outstanding service to the delicious food and drinks, every part of our visit exceeded our expectations. Peyton and Stu have clearly mastered what first-class service and hospitality should look like we can’t wait to come back! Thank you for making our afternoon absolutely perfect!“

“Amazing vegan food and amazing owners.“

“I have been a vegetarian since approximately 1968. It was not easy to eat out nor at other peoples houses without the constant questioning, “what’s in this?” Any meat in this? Over the years, it was more acceptable and I could find one or two dishes in every menu. Certainly there are more dishes and restaurants now. But I have been hesitant with many because I don’t want to eat something made from tofu or seitan and call it a burger or meat dish. So, I highly recommend that you eat at House of Vegano with fresh food, creative and incredible tastes, amazing choices and friendly staff that makes you feel like you are home. We are definitely coming back …with more friends!“

“Super tasty pho!!! They have special bone marrow beef soup that no place around have. Love it“

“Great service and great food!“

“We booked a wine tasting and charcuterie for Saturday-neither disappointed. They had an excellent selection, both of food and wines to taste. And very affordable. Our Sommelier was phenomenal – a great personality, professional with extensive knowledge, and a fun attitude and personality. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and kept a great pace when giving us a tour of the winery. Both made the experience excellent. We highly recommend this winery for an afternoon or tour while in Saint Pete. We’ll be back and recommend to friends!“

“the best tacos in town“

“Amazing!! Best Mexican food around and loved the casita bowls!“

“Great service. Owners go beyond to please customers. With my restricted diet they have Helped me turn my health around and Live. Thank goodness we have City Bistro to eat at. 5 🌟 definitely! The staff also goes way beyond what you expect to take care of their customers.“

“new fave place in st Pete! I liked the concept of entering the wine bar and then heading to the restaurant with your chosen drink of choice post tasting. the paella and dates were divine! we had this and a charcuterie board (hard to go wrong but also yummy). thank you!!“

“honestly i was blown away by how good everything was. the butter chicken had this rich creamy sauce that i couldnt stop dipping my naan in. we got the garlic naan and it was perfectly soft with just the right amount of char on the edges. definitely already planning my next visit to try the rest of the menu.“

“Great location with view of the lake. Unique and delicious menu. Bartender, Emily, has a great welcoming personality.“
