50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Merriam

“Taco Bell.

You know what it is.

I do have to say that this is closer to 4 and a half stars.

We’ve noticed Taco Bell quality has been improving overall, but this store is the BEST in the area for quality and service.

Great staff and always a nice place to have a quick snack or meal!“

“Just discovered this gem of a restaurant today. Food is upscale, creative and delicious. Service was outstanding. I had Besan Chella Omelette with Sweet Potato Hash, a Lavendar Lemondade and Coconut Panna Cotta! All outstanding. I will be back and work my way through everything on the menu!“

“Gigi provides the healthiest most organic and tastiest food in Kansas City at this moment in time. If you use your free will to purchase from other similar well-meaning vendors, you may be missing out on a lot of organic ingredients that could cost you a lot more than mere money down the line... Support Gigi’s Vegan + Wellness Café as much as you can make it up there.“

“Hands down my favorite ice cream ever. Staff are warm and welcoming, ice cream is phenomenal, all around a delightful experience! Thank you, High Hopes, for all you do!!! 🍦 🍨 🎉🥰❣️“

“Had a great experience loved the food will recommend to friends and family“

“I’ve been here a few times and the food is always delicious. I took my mom here a few weeks ago for her first time, it was a Thursday at lunch and still no open tables. We went behind the curtain and sat down as some tables didn’t have chairs on top and seemed open seating. It was cool back there and we were glad to have seating. The lady with the colored hair and piercing got my drink wrong so I had to go back up and tell her so. She gave me a side eye like I ordered the wrong thing when I know I did not. Then told me the area behind the curtain is off limits, and I should have known that because of the chairs on the tables. Very passive aggressively, the white lady behind the counter repeated it. It’s one thing to politely say the area is closed, it’s another to imply we’re dumb for eating there. What’s dumb is we had to eat outside on a hot day despite them having plenty of seating. My mom is a humble woman, so she didn’t mind, but this wasn’t the kind of experience I wanted to give her. Not sure who these smart-asses are, but they could stand to be more polite and understanding, not weird to customers.“

“Everything is delicious! Loved it!“

“Great spot, I had a coffee and it was delicious. Also ordered soupy momo and they were amazing. Such a delicate spice perfectly balanced with flavor that I didn't even notice the heat until my nose was running. I can't wait to return and try more of the menu! The customer service is also impeccable, you will be taken care of as a customer at this wonderful establishment.“

“We have had season tickets for several years. They always have a great show and fabulous food. However, The Jersey Boys was one of the best shows we have seen. My husband is not fond of the musicals, and he even loved it. We wanted to get tickets to see it again. Looking forward to next season.“

“Food is really good, I've ordered many times from them but my last order included an $8.25 fee for carry out supplies. They charge a percent of the entire bill. No where in the check out process do they tell you this. This seems excessive for 6 utensil packs and 5 takeout containers. Many other BBQ places with similar price points do not charge this fee. If you are going to charge extra fees be up front about it.“

“Great food! Fast service! My picky eater said “It’s Yummy!” He personally loves the spam sushi LOL“

“My first time trying Bibibop and fell in LOVE! My food was amazing, and the service was top notch. The store was also very clean. I will be returning!“

“Best ramen noodles ever! Their broths are great too. Apps and other plates great to try.“

“Our breakfast was perfect from our first bite until we couldn’t take another bite! We requested the onions be cooked throughly in our protein bowl, they were perfect. We will be back next time we’re in the KC area. Thank you 😊“

“Sushi is always fresh and delicious.“

“We just ate there for lunch and both of us are excited to recommend it to friends and family! The food was really amazing. We both had jerk chicken, cabbage, and plantains. All three were terrific. The service was so very friendly and accommodating! The atmosphere is quite creative and welcoming. Please give them your business!“

“I wanna do a huge shout out for Chris at the Lenexa location when I messed up my order and thought I was going to have it delivered. Got a call from Meddys that it had been sitting there and Chris was getting off work said he would drop it by the house. That’s above and beyond customer service thank you Meddys! You’ve got some great employees.“

“This Cafe has a great vibe. It's a wonderful place to dine in. Today I had the jalapeño Ruben and honey lavender macha. Delicious 🔥💯“

“Stopped here for breakfast before leaving KC - so worth it! The cinnamon roll, gooey butter cake, and breakfast hash were delicious! This place was highly recommended and I can see why. The hot mocha latte I got was great too! The place was packed and busy but they weee FAST on getting food and drinks out.“

“My boyfriend and I visited for our anniversary. our service was phenomenal, cocktails tasty, and the was in our top favorite meals we have ever eaten! He had the Pork Chop and I had Prime Rib! Very Good!!“

Thank You, Granite City!!! 😁😁“

“Lunch date with my husband. If you love Mediterranean food I strongly suggest going here. The red pepper humus is the best I’ve ever eaten. The customer service was outstanding! The kabob is so perfectly grilled. Yummy!“

“Ragazza is my favorite restaurant. We’ve been several times. Tonight we had Liz as a server and Channing helped out as well. Both of them were awesome. The food.. as always was awesome. Drinks superb. If you haven’t tried Ragazza you should. The Eggplant parm is my favorite but everything is honestly delicious.“

“Awruff! Bay Boy Sandwiches at the Commons! Where even to start! Tail-Wagging fun from the moment I walked it! Sports games, arcade games, lawn games, and skeeball! This place has it all! 🏈 🎯 🕹️I got a mouth-watering sandwich, The Bandit! Roast beef, smokey cheddar, red onion, raspberry jam and horseradish all on a delicious Dutch crunch roll! 🐶💚🥪 The atmosphere was high-energy and just felt less like strangers, and more like your own pack. It took a minute for our food to be ready, but it was so hot and fresh, and the staff were so nice I didn't mind! 10/10 🦴 will definitely be back!“

“Red Bridge is my favorite Barrio but Brookside is close second mainly because of limited space. Service and food has always been spot on which keeps me coming back! I've brought friends and they agree.“

“First I really did enjoy the food, i picked up a gyro sandwich with hummus to go. I also picked up a side of baklava.
Unfortunately to go orders , do not get top complementary mint tea, and honestly it was priced a little bit high. That said, the flavor was outstanding.
If I had more time , I think I would enjoying setting down to a meal here. Maybe next time.“

“we had a great experience I'll definitely be back!“

“The staff is AWESOME. Good food and drinks.“

“Pleasant visit. Enjoyed our coffee on the rooftop patio which made for a fun experience, employees were kind and helpful.“

“We found ourselves with some time to kill at lunch time and decided to give Ronnie's a shot. Pleasantly surprised with the open and clean atmosphere, friendly service, and decent food for the price. Was it the best breakfast I've ever had? No. But it was better than average and very reasonably priced. I would frequently this place if I lived close.“

“Came with our 4 and 6 year old. We LOVED it!!! Had to order more ramen for the kids they ate it so fast. Everything we had was amazing and service was top notch.“

“I mean it's Pierponts! You can never go wrong! The steak is melt in your mouth! So much better than other more expensive steakhouses in KC. Service was impeccable. Drinks were delicious! There's is something for anyone here. Atmosphere was beautiful!! Another wonderful night at Pierponts!“

“my favorite fresh spot for salad hummus and tea/coffee, I frequent independence but prefer Westport for the wooden salad bowls, reminds me of my childhood!“

“The place is as nicely done. Staff were excellent. Tour was great. Enjoyed the whole experience. Would recommend it to everyone.“

“Beyond impressed! My boyfriend's favorite dessert is a key lime pie. He has a son that has a gluten and dairy allergy and his one request for his birthday this year was a key lime pie that he could share with his son. That was not an easy task to locate. Even though it is not something they offer on their menu, Mud Pie Bakery was willing to do a special order for a gluten free, dairy free key lime pie and I must say, we were blown away! It was delicious! The crust was delicious, the filling was tangy, and the whipped topping was sweet and balanced everything else out! Not only that, but it looked beautiful! The best part is that my boyfriend's son got to enjoy a sweet treat that the rest of the family was having and that is something that rarely happens, due to his dietary restrictions! Thank you, Mud Pie, for doing this for us and for being so kind and accommodating!“

“Great coffee, perfecto customer service and food!!“

“We accidentally stumbled across the Black Garlic while looking for someplace to eat near the Uptown Theater. What a WONDERFUL discovery we made. Starting with the atmosphere, which had such a cool, sleek vibe. We had the pleasure of having Monica and Terry serve our table. They gave wonderful drink recommendations, and the drinks were outstanding and beautiful. The food… I had the Crab Cakes which were some of the best I have had. My husband enjoyed a dish called Giya which was a pork shoulder with a black mushroom rice. And our friend had the shrimp tibs. All of us were floored at how delicious our food was. We have already recommended to several friends and this is definitely a place we will keep coming back to! This experience was 10/10!“

“Our #1 Mexican restaurant pick! The food is authentic and is just as I ate when I was younger living in Southern California.“

“My love for Indian Cuisine grew even stronger in 2014 when I fell in love with the food that comes out of this kitchen but what puts it into another level is the friendliness of the owner. He has made a huge difference in my life.“

“my FAVORITE place for special occasion brunches- my birthday, mother's day, etc everything is always delicious and we love the small business support in the brands shared in the front of the restaurant and in the menu options!“

“Perfectly and freshly prepared menu items that just called on Spain! Absolutely delicious, charming surroundings and immaculate service. Luke and Megan made La Bodega totally memorable with their charm and polite kindness⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
