50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Indianapolis

“Great atmosphere. First timer: food was excellent. Server was fun and knowledgeable of the menu. Came for Dining Out For Life and will definitely be back.“

“F**king amazing every time. The Food. The drinks. The conviviality. The staff is top notch. I can’t ever recommend it enough. I splurged and spent $160 on myself and I regret nothing. Kudos to every person that works there. For an industry guy like me, it’s a place I love so much I want to work there. When I move back to Indy I’m sending my resume over. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟“

“Had a lovely dinner on the outside patio tonight!“

“Great location and the food is excellent!😊“

“Favorite place to eat for a causal dinner, celebrations, special event and a night out!“

“Absolutely love the pumpkin pancakes so much, that I get them every visit! And summer the lemon blueberry. We ask for Layla every time, she knows what we drink and brings them before we ever ask. She jokes with my husband which he loves. She's funny, super sweet and such a great waitress. We've been coming here for a few months now, after leaving another pancake place, because of the food and service here. We bring all of out out of town guests here and upon a return visit this is where they want to come. Layla makes each visit the best part of our day!“

“Food and service was fantastic!!“

“Vida always delivers the most unique dining experience you can imagine! Thank you, Chef Thomas Melvin and his well trained staff for their special attention to detail. A memorable evening!“

“Stopped in this morning to celebrate Father's Day with my husband. We enjoyed our breakfast. The grits were the best I've had in years. Sarah (our waitress) was amazing. She gave great suggestions and was so sweet. We will be coming back soon with our children.“

“If you are in Indianapolis & seeking Indian Cuisine, then I would highly recommend to visit & have amazing Indian food here. We ordered Sahi Paneer & Veg Biryani…. OMG it was just so delicious. Can’t miss Indian food if you go & eat here!!!!“

“Wonderful experience and service this evening. Our server was Flower (sorry if misspelled). She went above and beyond all evening long to make sure our experience was a positive and felt special every step of the way. The food was delicious and plentiful. Highly recommend.“

“We recommend Salt on Mass for its incredible consistency. The experience is always welcoming and forever delicious. My husband David treated us to a delightful dining experience for Valentine's Day Eve. (I love dining "off holiday" for a more peaceful pace.) We've dined at Salt on Mass many times and continue to be thrilled with our experience. We reserved through Open Table and were seated immediately with our on-time arrival. I love a table with a view of the room's comings and goings, so #41 was ideal, again. We were welcomed by our server Ryan, who explained he was also our bartender. (Love it - special insights on cocktails and wines.) He served us well, attentive but not too much so, and we loved his creative chocolate martini as our "appetizer." :-) We chose our dinner favorites - Chilean Sea Bass with delectable risotto for David and Salmon with expertly grilled asparagus for me. The portions remain appropriately generous, so we split the Key-Lime Chiffon Cake for dessert. Congratulations Johnny and crew for delivering another memory-making visit. Each one leaves us craving the next! Here's to you all! Sincerely satisfied, Garnet and David 2-13-25“

“The food is excellent, and the service very friendly and welcoming. Yummy comfort food on a cold dreary winter afternoon!“

“Excellent! Super delicious.“

“Stopped into pick up a couple Persian rolls w/Carmel icing. I bought two and the sales lady (who I thought was being nice) said I'll give you one for free. Got home to realize all three were hard as a rock ..straight to the trash. Stop selling stale products. Usually good here ..will think twice about going back.“

“Had a wonderful experience with my two younger daughters. Our server was very nice and gracious with my children. She was patient and checked in on us enough to make sure everything went well without hovering. The food as always was exceptional. Thanks for a great Daddy Daughters evening.“

“Absolutely love this place. Every show or play, I have seen there is always a great production. Food is always amazing. Staff is always friendly and quick. The buffet style is amazing. Beef and Boards always does such a great job. I always look forward to going back.“

“We had a lovely time this evening with a great bartender and staff. Loved the Down the Rabbit Hole drink and of course the empanadas. But it was the friendliness of the staff that was the highlight. Learned about a couple of drinks and the rim dip stand while talking to the bartender and the manager helped us with a future reservation. Both of them represented the restaurant very well. We are coming back with a group for a special dinner.“

“Excellent food and customers service I highly recommended.“

“Had dinner with a friend on a busy Thursday night. Luckily she got there early and grabbed a table for us before the rush started. Our waitress, Courtney O was awesome! We had the spring rolls, and chicken wings both were perfectly crunchy the sauces were delicious. For dinner, my friend had the Bodhi fried rice, which was made fresh - there was steam rolling off of it the whole time we ate. I had the Stir-fried glass noodles with shrimp (medium.) The shrimp were cooked perfectly, seasoned well and the medium heat was just right for me. Overall the food was fabulous, love the atmosphere, will definitely be back.“

“Patachou rocks. Not only is the food superb. Their restrooms are always clean and the service is great. They also take the time to watch out for their patrons when they misplaced their valuables I’m a customer for life. Now if I could just get another cup of their banana nut coffee. Best cup I’ve ever had“

“This place is amazing! The customer service alone was outstanding. Sara and Rachel made us feel so special! I finished my plate and before I could even set it down at the edge of the table Rachel was there to pick it up. Sara was at our table so often to make sure we were taken care of that it felt like we were the only customers dining. Fogo de Chao do not lose these amazing young women!!“

“It’s really worth a visit! The food is AMAZING and price is on point! I wish I visited them sooner I would not have wasted my money on other places that are much less YUMMY.“

“I work here and eat the food a few times a week! They are really fast & have plenty to choose from. Use code BB1930 for 25% off your FIRST order.“

“Great experience! Not our first time here but an awesome place to meet up, especially for large groups. The place is huge. The beer is excellent, the food is just as great. Awesome service, plenty of parking, very clean. A very nice brewery to visit and probably a great time when the weather is nice.“

“Always a consistent food and service experience. My wife and I had different soups and both were terrific. We both had seafood and it was very fresh. We spilled some wine and Steph our server top us off with no additional charge. My wife loves their small but tasty deserts!“

“The food is amazing! I had a tempura mushroom taco made with locally foraged mushrooms (so claims the menu) and it was tasty. I ordered through the QR code posted to the side of the bar, and it was intuitive and easy to do so.

Vegetarian options: Delicious mushroom tacos! Most of the menu features meat but there are several high-value vegetarian options.“

“Chelsea was great! We had a great time tonight. Great food / Great drinks!“

“Fantastic food. We go at least once a week.“

“We love Bosphorus Cafe! We have moved away from Indianapolis and couldn’t wait to get back and visit again to enjoy all the amazing flavors!! Highly recommend this restaurant.“

“We went for my husband's birthday. He had the ribeye, which was ok alone. It was great with the chumicurri topping. I had the glazed pork chops, and they were delightful!

Great atmosphere and music! However, parking is limited.“

“20/10 stars!! This place blew my mind, I am very satisfied and will be back and bringing more family and friends. The food and wine were absolutely amazing.

“en dehors d un accueil toujours chaleureux des pizzas excellente et un tarif plus qu abordable !“

“Excellent food and friendly staff. Shout out to Kaycee for making our experience all it could be.“

“This was my first time at Ruth’s Chris. My girlfriend has been here before for work events and she wanted to treat me to a Valentine’s Day dinner on Saturday, the 15th. We had a wonderful time and the food, the service, and the atmosphere were top notch! The executive chef at this location cooked the food perfectly, and our waiter, Kaleb, did an equally fantastic job serving us. My girlfriend ordered the ribeye, and I had the New York strip, and that was the best NY strip I’ve ever had.“

“Initially they seated us at a table tucked away in a corner. Terrible location. My view was Aldi’s dumpster. Then we found that the staff use the door for their smoke breaks. Constant traffic. We were a bit chilly so we asked to move to a different table. They accommodated us but then we had to change servers. We felt bad for our first server.“

“had an amazing experience tonight at the rusty bucket. the meatloaf with mashed potatoes and green beans were incredible. the bartender katherine was very friendly and very attentive. Will definitely be back“

“Lovely place. The sourcing of flavors where presented perfectly. The staff made us feel welcomed“

“My husband and I are traveling from out of state and we're looking for a good burger. Holy Cow the burgers here were 10/10 good! So much so we were sad to eat it gone! Friendly staff and great hospitality.“

“I visited Indy to see John R. Miller in concert at Duke's and it was an amazing venue! The staff was incredibly friendly, the food was delicious, drink prices were extremely fair and the overall vibe of the place can't be beat. This is one of my favorite venues I've ever been to, I hope to be back one day!“

“Was beautiful and amazing!! Loved our food and drinks!! Wait staff was super friendly and accurate! Loved our experience!!“

“We were visiting Indy for the weekend, and we have eaten at several big hitters like St. Elmo's and Cake Bake, however Diavola was by far our favorite. It's situated in a beautiful neighborhood filled with charm. The restaurant has a warm and welcoming front and the restaurant definitely served locals as a favorite spot. Our server, Christopher, was fantastic. He was friendly, professional, and gave great advice and suggestions for us to try. The food was top tier. My favorite was the cheese garlic bread. I could have slept on those pillowy perfectly proved crusts and swum in the delightfully melted cheese enhanced by perfectly balanced garlic. But, really everything was wonderful, and don't sleep on the cannoli! We have told everyone we've seen since eating at Diavola that they need to check it out! Highly highly recommend!“

“Must have been an off night I’m guessing? Service was horrible, & most of the food was great, special salmon dish for onion allergy family member over salted. Shrimp & grits, burgers, & Mac & cheese were great, “lump” crab hush puppy’s are made with artificial crab meat.“

“While visiting our son in Indy, we ate here for the first time on May 9th. We had a party of 5. It was around 9:30 pm. We had a small wait of around 20 minutes. When we sat down , we had a small wait before our drink orders were taken. The manager walked by and she immediately noticed that we were waiting. She took our drink orders without being asked. We had a wonderful experience. The food was great ! The drinks were great. The service was great ! We’ll be back!“

“Very disappointing the parking for seniors stinks. I don’t how long I am going to be there. Going in out to pay for meters not good.“

“The atmosphere was fun and service started out well. Apps were good and food came fast. However, then we sat with picked over plates for 45 minutes and the second round of drinks never ordered by the waitress for us. The service needs to improve and the entrees were not as tasty as the apps.“

“So good, all around. Great service. Excellent food.“
