50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Canton

“This review isn't getting any pictures. This isn't an afterthought. This is intentional because quite frankly you don't need a filtered photo of a plate of pasta that I took for insta to sell you on this place. To be perfectly honest, you don't even need me.

This is going somewhere, I promise.

Let me set the scene for you.

The heart of an old downtown in the crux of revival. The bottom corner of a historically renown building that prior to it's current incarnation was often a Hollywood set. Literally. Marvel even filmed here. Inside of what was once Earth-616 is now a family run, floor to ceiling glass windowed, community culinary dream of from scratch pasta dishes and sandwiches that even your Nonna would have to approve of. A jazz ambience, which I normally find redundant and cringy but somehow doesn't just work here but belongs, gives you the subtle and much needed reminder to slow down.

There is no hurry here. There is no worry here. There are just literal rays of sunshine comfortably warming you through the glass while the food, my personal favorite being the "Roasted Mushroom Trenne", brings you back to a place you probably haven't been to in a while but you remember somehow once existed. It's a place of safety where nothing matters but the next bite. We've all been there. Those of us, the ineffably blessed ones, recognize this core memory from Sunday dinners at our Grandparent's house.

That's what this place is. It's THAT feeling.

Maybe you're reading this and thinking, "I have no idea what you're talking about. I never experienced anything like that growing up." Maybe you're Gen X and your core memories feel more like the lining of an eroded metal ash tray with a flip top in the back of a seatbeltless Pontiac and a mouthful of water from the hose of some random neighbor kid's yard. That's cool, too. This place has you covered. May I recommend the "No Reservations'? It's a Mortadella, the greatest of all Italian sandwiches. It's full of sausage, cheese, a fried egg and zero nonsense. Kind of like you.

See? This is a place for everyone. This place works not because of the social media worthy pics you could get of your food but because when you are here you forget about the hell hole that is social media. You don't need likes, you don't need followers. You just need to sit down, put the phone away and let life happen. And here, you will.

At POPS they aren't just offering food. They're offering community. The real deal. The food is outrageously solid. The service is unique and clearly honed from years of experience of working the front end of restaurants. Even if you don't run into a neighbor here, and I'm soo sure you will I can almost guarantee it (insert the voice of Justin Wilson here), you WILL know someone here because this place knows you. This place is invested in it's patrons. They don't forget a single one. They treat everyone like they are the reason they opened up shop. Everyone is the Shelley Long to their Woody Harrelson. Here, they really do know your name.

This place isn't a picture of it's food. It isn't pasta sheepishly buffered by truffle oil and the jazz Muzak station. This place is just what it set out to be, the culinary heart of a community.

Go eat at POPS. Order anything. Put the phone away. Slow down. Say "Hi' to a neighbor. Eat with gusto. Live with gusto. You belong here.

“?????
I recently dined at Yoon Sushi, and I must say, it was an outstanding experience. The rolls and sashimi were simply top-notch, some of the best I've had in a long time. Kinsley, our server, was exceptional—offering great menu suggestions that truly enhanced our meal. Her attentive and friendly service made the evening even more enjoyable. If you're looking for the best sushi in the area, Yoon Sushi is the place to go. Highly recommended!“

“Our family wanted to send a HUGE thank you for the delivery this evening. Pizza was delicious and the garlic knots were loved by all of our kids. (Our dog stole a piece of pizza, so he got to enjoy it too). If you haven't tried Perrottas yet, you definitely should! Not only are they super sweet people, the food was fabulous. ❤“

“We were out looking for a coffee shop but being a holiday no one was open. So we stopped in the brewery for a beer and they also had iced coffee, win-win!! I tried the Alani Wine-Inspired Sour and it had a really fun flavor profile. He went for the All America Strawberry Wheat which was refreshing. And the iced coffee also hit the spot. They don't serve food here but are happy for you to bring it in, and being at The Mill there are plenty of choices close at hand.“

“Our experience with Old Country Place as our wedding caterer was nothing short of exceptional, and we cannot express our gratitude enough for the outstanding service they provided. Not only did they deliver an exquisite dining experience, but they also went above and beyond in a moment of need that truly showcased their commitment to making our day perfect. During the wedding day hustle, we realized that we had forgotten to bring the non-alcoholic beverages for our guests. Enter the incredible team from Old Country Place. Without hesitation, they volunteered to go above and beyond their catering duties and promptly offered to pick up the beverages for us. This act of kindness and willingness to help in a pinch not only saved the day but also highlighted the professionalism and dedication of the Old Country Place staff. Their commitment to ensure every detail was perfect for our wedding was evident throughout the entire planning process and on the day itself. Now, let's talk about the food! The catering was beyond delicious, with a menu that pleased even the most discerning palates. From appetizers to the main course, every dish was expertly prepared and presented, leaving a lasting impression on our guests. If you're in search of a catering service that not only delivers delicious cuisine but also goes the extra mile to ensure your special day is flawless, Old Country Place is the perfect choice. Thank you to the entire team for your exceptional service and for turning a potential hiccup into a seamless and memorable part of our wedding day.“

“We had to go to Canton for a doctor’s appointment so we wanted to try it. It was delicious. Our waiter was excellent and we will come back next time we are in Canton.“

“Our food was great, service was good, no issues at all, will definitely be going back!“

“Went for dinner at 7pm on a weeknight. Immediately seated. Was surprised with the length of time it took for our food to come and when it did, my daughter recieved an order that was for the table next to us and then had to wait on her order. Our booth was uncomfortable and in need of a restuffing. The pancakes were not as good at this location, as at others.“

“Service and food were great. the apple crumble cheesecake is insane!“

“Friendly staff and fresh food! Love this place!“

“Fun place. Know what to expect. This is nothing fancy. It's a step above bar food. Service is friendly. We usually sit on the porch to watch everything happening on the lake.

Little pricier than typical bar food but you are paying for the location. Kitchen could be a little more precise (frequently missing things or items are prepared differently one time to another) but again, it's nothing fancy.

We go now for the atmosphere, view, and music. Usually something happening, especially on the weekends.

The policy changes, but typically will behaved, leashed dogs are welcome in the outside area.“

“Love it . The tamale are the best!!!!“

“Best place in Decatur. Have been going to eat with them since they were on 6th Avenue. Now at my age, I will start using the delivery service. Excellent food and Staff and I love Buffets“

“We just had the best experience at Taco Mac! When we first walked in we saw someone who wasn't really ok with waiting for a table and he was incredibly rude to the manager and the manager handled it like the professional he is. We were seated at our table and had the best service. There was a slight issue with one of our meals and the manager came over, before we even knew there was an issue, and explained the situation. He did everything to make sure we were happy and checked on us several times just to make sure. It was absolutely amazing and we will definitely be back. It helps to remember that people in the service industry can only do their jobs to the best of their ability and being rude to the staff or anyone, doesn't make them do things quicker or the way you want. Thank you to the staff at Taco Mac for handling our party of 7 with a smile and great service.“

“My friends and I really enjoy meeting here for drinks after work. The food is good, the service is great and there is always room at the bar. Highly recommend!“
