50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Longboat Key

“One of our favorite spots for food .. always go to St Armand’s and decided to check out the Longboat location, it did not disappoint! Views, service, easy docking 💗💗💗“

“Awesome place! Staff were great, food was delicious and can’t wait to go back!“

“It was a stormy day that ended with a rainbow at Mar Vista. The food was perfect!!“

“I love Solozarnos! The food tastes great and the prices are good.“

“For 100% vegans, this fine dining experience is worth the extra cost. The food is delicious and diverse. However, tonight I tried a dish I wouldn't order again: the filet for $49. While the texture was appealing, the flavor was lacking and became unexciting after a few bites—I truly wanted to love it! Unfortunately, they only had butter as a sauce option. The accompanying mashed potatoes were enjoyable, and I appreciated my mocktail, a fig espresso martini.“

“We love IONIE!! We have enjoyed this wonderful restaurant since 2022! I should have posted a review then. We have ordered most things on the menu and everything is super fresh with amazing flavors! The atmosphere is friendly, food consistently fabulous and a beautiful ambiance. Always great service! Updated from previous review on 2025-02-09“

“We enjoyed Fam! We ordered today for delivery. My baby loved the tofu scramble! We would order again!“

“Great vegan pizza and regular cheese option for the kiddos! The cashew cheese was yummy! Also, don’t forget to try the fried artichoke app. And the espresso and tiramisu was excellent! We’ll be back for sure! Looking forward to trying it all!“

“Paula makes the most delicious vegan comfort food. I am NOT a vegan, and I still love everything she makes. The Cuban sandwich and Mac and Cheez are my favorites, as well as the Brussels sprouts. Be sure to check out some of the tasty desserts and the purple butterfly tea as well.

The restaurant is located in Palmetto in a cute historic building, which is always fun to visit. Whether you're a vegan, vegetarian, or carnivore, I highly recommend visiting Happy Soul!“

“I was having a bad day. Like the worst day of my life. And all I wanted was poke. The staff could see it in my eyes and were super nice and grateful. They checked on me and were super sweet. I got up to clean up, and there was a box of pocky waiting for me on my table and a silent smile. The food is amazing but it’s because of the service that I come in every week. ❤️. Thank you for making my day suck less.“

We always book on open table, and typically go for special occasions, and they’ve made it so special each time!“

“My husband and I ordered a cake for my wedding anniversary here to re-create our wedding cake, and it was phenomenal. We had a unique flavor of carrot cake with salted caramel buttercream frosting and nougatine filling. Needless to say, everyone agreed this cake was BETTER! than the wedding. Truly delicious. The baker was so nice and accommodating to our requests. We can't wait to order again.“

“5/5 stars! Oak & Stone exceeded my expectations in every way! The rooftop bar was incredible, with stunning views of the Twin Dolphin Marina! But what really made our visit stand out was the exceptional service from the bartenders. Tessa was hands down the best bartender I've ever had - she was knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. Taylor was also great, providing excellent service with a smile. The drinks were crafty and delicious, and the atmosphere was lively and fun. We can't wait to come back and enjoy another night out at Oak & Stone's rooftop bar!“

“Wow! What an impressive evening at every level. Do not hesitate and book this restaurant for your next food adventure. The moment you walk into this establishment, you know the vibe is cool and these people know their food & spirits. The food is incredible and different than the typical Sarasota restaurant that has the same boring food offerings. I was impressed with the Iberico pork dish and unusually amazingly flavored vegetables and spices that accented the smoky, tender pork. The yuca side dish was similar to a potato but more flavorful and crispier mixed with an addition of corn, pickled cabbage and other vegetables. I haven't found a dish that impressed me more in recent years. The crispy salmon was a "oh wow" moment for my friend, who hails from the Pacific Northwest as do I, where Washingtonians know a thing or two about salmon. This restaurant provides your palate something different and if you're a veteran of dining out constantly, this is a welcomed change from the ordinary. The New York steak included an amazing demi glaze exploding with flavor and had the perfect consistency which can be a challenge to make right but State Street Eatinghouse + Cocktails got it right. I highly recommend the fried Brussell sprouts appetizer as they were a flavor explosion in our mouths. The bacon amplified the sprouts with the accompaniment of the balsamic glaze. My friend's husband and mine, who usually don't like this vegetable, were pleasantly surprised and ate more than the obligatory "try one" bite. State Street Eating House + Cocktails is owned by the same people that introduced us to tapas restaurant "Beso", which I recently tried, and awarded it my "Best Restaurant in Sarasota" award. This restaurant belongs in the "Restaurant Hall of Fame" of Sarasota or even US restaurants. I love it! My waiter, Dana, was super attentive and impressive. His vast knowledge of the drink and food menu was spot-on and his candor and expertise added to the whole evening's experience. What an amazing restaurant! I can't wait to book my next reservation and I'm kicking myself for not trying it sooner. Cheers! Dietary restrictions: I appreciate they were mindful of my cow's milk allergy which makes eating out difficult since most dishes have butter and/or cheese. Thank you for helping me feel confident about eating here.“

“Great lunch, drinks and service“

“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!“

“Our second visit and sat outside on covered patio, which was nice. Our server, Stephanie, was friendly and attentive. We loved the short rib spring rolls and a special sea bass cake was also good. We split the filet, which included au gratin potatoes and asparagus. Potatoes good. Asparagus too large and fibrous. Steak was ok, more the cut than the prep. Overall, we would come back.“

“We love the food and the owners! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ Always delicious!“

“Great vibe ,shrimp tacos spot on ,the tuna BLT with wasabi mayo and coconut rice also spot on . Live music is always a bonus !“

“Excellent place for good food“

“Best place to have a meal on the island! Amazing ownership & staff!“

“Muy buenooooo Excelente atención“

“Lila has a perfect number of vegan options with several non-vegan options that seem ethically sourced. All the appetizers, sushi and salads on the dinner menu are vegan, 4/8 of the warm options are vegan. I had the rice tots as an appetizer and the mushroom burger as the main. I thought the rice tots were delicious, both the accompanying sauces provided a unique flavor and options for preference. The mushroom burger was also great, though I was glad I request thousand island dressing on the side because I don’t believe that was the ideal sauce option. I would have recommended a vegan garlic aioli instead. The mushroom burger is made of oyster mushrooms, so a more elevated composition from what you might receive from the grocery store. The one downside of the restaurant was the price point, I feel it was slightly higher than what was justified for what you received. From what we’ve all experienced of the farmers market, oyster mushrooms aren’t cheap but the rice tots as well were a bit much for some fried rice. That being said, it’s also located in downtown Sarasota so what can you expect.“

“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!“

“wow these Empanada were amazing, tasted so good. highly recommend them!“

“First time today! Very good especially since im picky about my coffee.. look forward to my next visit ❤️“

“Best wheatgrass shot I’ve had, my green juice was amazing and the atmosphere was very cute!“

“Highly recommend this venue for your special occasion- the owner exceeded our expectations at every level. From the decor to the food- she made my daughter’s bridal shower exquisite!!! Everyone commented that it was the nicest shower they had ever attended! And the food and cake- omg- soooo delish! 5 ⭐️s!“

“Our absolute favorite Indian Restaurant in Sarasota Bradenton. It's delicious, the staff is friendly, and they are willing to make oil-free vegan options. So much flavor. We tried this place the week they opened a couple of years ago and were apprehensive when we saw the exterior and the location. We walked in and the smell was amazing and it was classy looking inside. They staff was so friendly. The food was delicious. We have been going back ever since.“
