50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Granite City

“We went to the drive through location. For a meal as solid as this, at a touch over 9 dollars, I was absolutely floored. I got their grilled chicken sandwich and was met with a level of ecstasy I’ve only achieved through extraneous substances.“

“Super impressed by how fresh and attractive the food was“

“I’ve been here before and in the past the service wasn’t the best — I often felt like I was being met with an attitude and even charged extra for sweet and sour sauce when ordering multiple boxes of rice.

This time was a completely different experience. The rice was delicious, the service was great, and the lady who helped me was kind, polite, and even gave me extra sauce without hesitation. I ordered shrimp fried rice and it was excellent.

I’m really happy with how much better the service has gotten, and I’ll definitely be coming back more often!“

“Excellent food and service!!!“

“Went here for breakfast it did not disappoint The country fried steak was perfect, the hash browns crisp, eggs omed was spot on toast was still warm. It doesn’t get any better than this folks Hat off to the cook♥️“

“Some of the best food I’ve had comparable to ESTL. I will be gate keeping. Absolutely Fire St. Paul’s and Fried Rice. Seasoned to perfection. They understand the assignment. Will forever be my new favorite. I finally found what I’ve been looking for.“

“I read the reviews and almost didn't go there. But I said, let me try for myself and I was not disappointed. The phone service excellent atmosphere, excellent cashier. Excellent The Pizza, although I don't care for the provale or (sometimes sweet)sauce but it was actually delicious. The best Imo's I've ever eaten. I had it a great experience. I wish I could share the photo of the Pizza because it's beautiful, crispy. Outstanding.“

“Great food and fantastic cocktails. The BLT with a fried egg add goat cheese DELICIOUS“

“PROS: Delicious food! Timely, sweet, and friendly service. Great atmosphere!

CONS: If you sit at the bar and closer toward the entrance, make sure you wear a jacket if it’s chilly out.

OVERALL: I’ll definitely be back sometime!“

“Food is great and served in reasonable time. The waitress could be more attentive to patrons seeing that the tip is added to the bill and paid before even receiving food. I asked for something and she forgot and brought it to the table 15 minutes later after I was almost done with meal. Had to ask for water, waitress only filled up my husband’s glass not mine and both were pretty much empty and I wasn’t even asked if I wanted more water. Hopefully this is read and improved on my return visit. It least it shows me how to tip next time 😏“

“4 stars for fingerling potatoes. 5 stars for Sleigh Bells “Rill Rill”.“

“Got the brisket with sweet potato fries and pickles. My friend got the ribs and corn. Both were good, very tender. The sauce was also really nice (I tried all four and we really liked the spicy one the most).

The lineup was long when we got there but it was pretty quick, I think we had a 20-30 minute wait so not too bad (I once waited for an hour at a different BBQ place).

Placed our orders and food came out pretty quickly. The staff was really nice and recommended the sides (was not disappointed).

The inside had plenty of seating and had cool decorations, I think newspaper clippings or some articles lined the walls.

Overall, had a good experience and would definitely come back.“

“Great cocktails, food, and service. Maggie was a great waitress!“

“AMAZING food and incredible service. Jeff, our server, was very friendly and welcoming. He took his time walking us through the menu and answering all of our questions. The sushi here is next level and unlike anything I’ve experienced anywhere else. My wife and I cannot stop talking about our experience here!“

“Love this place! Love the food, and the staff are amazing!“

“Fantastic dining experience!“

“just got back from our tour! such great fun! we loved the tour. We look forward to coming back on a Friday night for some fun and drinks! We loved our tasting!“

“It took us a while to be able to snipe a reservation and I can certainly see why they need them for dine in. They do not have a lot of tables at all. The food and drinks are absolutely amazing. The service was attentive and prompt. Be careful though since they don't have a lot of tables they do rely on people respecting the allotted time for their reservations. I'd probably do to go more just because the food is so very good and I don't necessarily need a sit down experience. I can't wait for them to move to tower grove east because then they'll have more tables.“

“Incredible food, cocktails and service. Their French onion soup is to die for. Lovely place with great atmosphere, highly recommend!“

“Fantastic ribs, fast friendly family oriented environment“

“Awruff! 🐶 🌮 TERROR TACOS, WHERE TO EVEN START! 👻 This hidden gem taco place is a MUST-VISIT! So much spooky decor, great music and always a scary movie playing! I devoured two Basic Witch Tacos and a Fajita Goredita🌶️💥 Fresh, bold, and terrifyinly Tasty! Hard to believe it's all plant-based! 🤯 Service was on point, and the vibe TO DIE FOR! 10/10 🦴 I cannot recommend enough!“

“Our wedding in February 2024 was a dream come true! Grbic helped make our day absolutely perfect. Leija was incredibly knowledgeable, easy to work with and quick to respond to all of our needs. The ceremony was held on the covered patio space and the reception in the Luxe Room which is gorgeous! The homemade food was delicious and the staff were all so friendly and fun. We were able to borrow almost all of our decor from their closet which was an added bonus. We are so happy we chose Grbic!“

“Our first experience here was nothing shy of amazing. The service was incredible, even with a bar full of pub crawlers. The food was so delicious and we cannot wait to go back.“

“Literally the best breakfast food my husband and I have ever had!! Cute diner, with super sweet and personable staff. Highly recommend!!“

“I have been wanting to get here for several years, and we finally made it, tonight, to Anthonino's Taverna, a short distance from Rob's place. (Fun fact, this place has been spotlighted twice on Guy Fieri's Food Channel Show. I can now see why. 🥰) Well, I wish I had made it here sooner. But, that's behind us, and tonight was a delicious, and delightful night. Our waitress, Bailee, had the excellent insight to know it takes awhile to decide on a drink, and dinner choices. It doesn't matter if you read the menu online or not. Changes are always added. She gave us the grace to settle in for a few minutes. She gave us enough time to settle in so we could make our choices. Rob had a Kona Wave draft, and I had a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. Bailee brought us bread made, and baked on The Hill with great quality olive oil, and herbs for dipping. Rob ordered the lasagna, and I opted for the Tutti de Mare with seafood, garlic, butter, and olive oil. My dinner was delicious, and made with freshly made pasta, and a perfect mix of perfectly cooked wild caught seafood of mussels,shrimp, clams, and squid. Rob's lasagna also featured freshly made pasta sheets, Anthonino's red sauce, sausage, ricotta, and mozzarella cheese. I tasted it, and it's your pick here if you love lasagna. Homemade taste that brought me back to my grandmother's and my mother's tables. 🥰❤️ I also felt welcomed, and comfortable as soon as I walked through the door. Italian girl here, and I would highly recommend this place for the food, drinks, the customer service, and the ambiance. I am already planning to come back on my next trip here. Anthonino's Taverna“

“Excellent flavors! Some of the best thai food ever...and I've had quite a bit over my life time. The drunken noodles was amazing, as was the red curry and the chargrilled aubergine was like nothing I've had before and was outstanding! I'd come back to STL just to eat here!“

“We wanted Italian food and we decided to go on the hill to Zia‘s. We ordered pasta dishes, which was extremely nice portion size. The bread was delicious when you dip it in olive oil. I also had the French martini which was delicious. I think if you have a taste for Italian food pasta, you couldn’t find a better place.“

“a great place for friends to game, professional team building, you name it. loved it there. the art deco interior is beautiful.“

“Great food, great service, great atmosphere, & great vibes!!!“

“Without a doubt the best brewery in STL. Very English-style beers that are sessionable and top-notch. Do you know how to tell this place is proper? They have 1-2 beers ON CASK!!! You can barely find that in the US. When we have visitors this is the brewery to take them to. Also, you can get a half-pint for exactly half the price! That is so unbelievably awesome and rare these days.“

“The waiter was excellent! The food was amazing. The entire staff did a awesome job with greeting and service! I will definitely be back🎉🥰“

“Every dish I have tried has been a 5 star!“

“Terrible parking but great food.“

“We came into Charlie Gitto’s on the Hill with no reservation, to celebrate my birthday. There was a short wait for seating but we got drinks and were checked on during our wait. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable with pairing drinks with food. The lobster ravioli and manicotti were delicious!! I look forward to going back in the future.“

“Always a good time with friends!“

“Wonderful food! Wonderful atmosphere! Wonderful owners! highly recommend.“

“Great spot for traditional Cajun food in St. Louis. Never been a place all that concerned with the details so if you expect an attentive waitstaff or even bubbles in your club soda it's probably not for you. But the food is worth it despite the minor annoyances.“

“We were in town (from the Twin Cities) for the 2025 President's Day Classic, and had Hogtown Smokehouse cater a team (and parents) dinner for 30 in our hotel. Rico was fantastic in helping us out. Quick to respond to calls and emails. Gracious, and just wonderful altogether... and that's just the service. The food? The empty pans, told the story. Brisket, Turkey and Pork for meats. Mac & cheese, potato salad and beans for sides. EVERYTHING was amazing! I never right reviews, but Rico and staff deserve this one. If you're reading this, don't hesitate to give them a try. Thanks again, Rico!“

“The vegan pizza is SO DANG GOOOOOOD, I never thought I’d be able to have a good slice of NY style vegan pizza and Pizza Head definitely proved me wrong. Everything from the vegan pepperoni to the cheez sauce & crust - tastes like the real thing and my pizza dreams have again been reborn. The RANCH IS SO GOOD TOOOOO. And the vegan parm is such a great touch. Super friendly/helpful customer service as well and I love a good lowlight, chill atmosphere. 10/10 would highly recommend and plan to come back at least once a month to treat myself to a whole vegan pie. I recommend getting half vegan Mozz and half vegan cashew cheese - both are equally delicious. I am so impressed with this place, thank you Pizza head - you have a loyal customer in me 😊🙏🏻“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pictured below is the Gonzo calzone- Salami, dates, spinach, garlic herb cheese, mozzarella, mascarpone-ricotta blend, and garlic oil with garlic butter on the side. My husband looked at me like I was crazy when I read off dates but the slight sweetness against all of that savory is what made it!! We also tried the Fatty B, Meat me in St Louie, Magic Carpet Ride, and the Gyro. They were all amazing but the Gonzo and the Gyro were my favorites. The Magic Carpet Ride is also a must try if you're into mushrooms.“

“I used to love McGurks. Very disappointed they got rid of the stuffed chicken breast. That was my favorite.“

“Incredible experience tonight for my birthday. We arrived late due to a timing mix-up, but the staff went above and beyond to accommodate us without hesitation.
The manager demonstrated exceptional leadership; despite being short-staffed, she managed the front, took orders, and stepped into the kitchen to help cook—all while remaining attentive, sweet, and professional. The food was phenomenal, but the world-class hospitality is what truly set the evening apart. This is a business that clearly values its customers and takes pride in its work. I cannot recommend them enough!“

“Absolutely amazing! The food and drinks were outstanding and the service was even better. Couldn’t have asked for a better evening. Can’t wait to go back. If you’re looking for a nice restaurant with the best food, this is it!“

“World Class musicians and a well designed venue make Jazz St. Louis an excellent choice for a wonderful afternoon or evening of entertainment.“

“First time going and loved the vibe/decore!!! Met the owner and so enjoyed her and the hospitality!!! Definitely will be going back!! The food/drinks/music was so enjoyable!!!“

“Had a wonderful experience! Delicious coffee and nice staff!“

“We had a very fun time playing Tuesday night trivia with our three kids. Great bites, good beers, excellent service & friendly atmosphere. 10/10 recommended!“

“We had dinner with friends here last night and it was fantastic. The shrimp toast was incredible. Scallops were fantastic. We had quite a list of different dishes and they were all great! Didn’t get pictures of it all but here’s some of what we had!“

“Amazing food, atmosphere, service, great quality and quantity for what you pay for and the dessert section is huge! My new favorite place“

“The fried shrimp baco is incredible!!!“
