50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Merriam

“Hell yeah … the food it’s really good and the service it’s greatly there’s a waitress called Claudia she’s so nice“

“Drove 1.5 hours to try and buy some Povitica which I never had till then and it was outstanding!! The english walnut I preferred and the coffee cakes are almost as good as the povitica. I recommend the cinnamon walnut and mocha coffee (I really enjoyed yet hate coffee!) It was interesting watching the workers making the products as well. Samples are out to try which were not tiny and fresh and the gal that assisted us was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Definitely will go back after the 4 povitica and cakes are gone as well as 5 cheesecakes!!“

“I never expected a cafeteria in a hospital to have such fantastic food with such friendly staff professionals. I would say that the options were great and the service was exceptional.

Dietary restrictions: Everything was well labeled.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's on the base floor and is accessible to everyone. Nothing is high up enough to be an issue.“

“Good food & lax atmosphere for the fam!“

“Service was Amazing! Kathy went over and beyond. The food was great I had the berry french toast slam and he had the chicken fried steak and eggs. Love the fact Kathy made sure the coffee was fresh. Becky and Jessica also were amazing. Any time they passed our table they always spoke to us and asked if we needed anything. Paul did an amazing job cooking everything was wonderful. Highly suggest giving them a shot. Save some room for the cheesecake it is good.“

“Muy rico y buen servicio!!“

“As good as one would expect a Chinese buffet to be. Especially love their Honey Chicken. Only complaint is the floor is incredibly slippery. I've been there twice with different shoes and I always feel like I'll slip and fall. Slippery in the dining hall and especially the restroom, feet were slipping even when I was seated?!“

“The long lines are awesome, they move pretty fast … It is well worth the wait in line! The best bbq ever !!! Hands down red beans and rice was delicious 🤤 Go get some !!!“

“Food was amazing! 1000/10! Definitely worth the 7hr drive“

“The food experience. If you have not been to an authentic BBQ in Kansas before, this needs to be on your list“

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

“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 and fast service!“

“As always, Cafe Provence did not disappoint. The drinks, appetizers, main courses, and desserts were all excellent. Our server was a 2nd generation family member of the owners and provided top notch service with many helpful suggestions. Our party of four requested seating in a booth, which was honored, and it provided a cozy and intimate atmosphere for our sisterly gathering. Cafe Provence is where I take out-of-town guests because I know there won't be any disappointments. I can't wait to go back!“

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

“The BEST Asian restaurant in the Northland! The food is absolutely amazing—every dish we’ve tried has been outstanding. The sushi is fresh and delicious, and the attention to detail is top-notch. You have to try the crab wontons—they’re a must! We just had the Tokyo crispy chicken, and it was so flavorful and perfectly cooked. Honestly, I haven’t had a single thing here that I didn’t love. Chris, the owner, always greets us with a warm smile, and he and his staff make you feel truly welcome every time. Exceptional food, outstanding service, and such a friendly atmosphere—Saki is hands down our favorite spot!“

“Mango tea, mango lemonade, and the blue Raspberry lemonade sprite mix were delicious. They were also very accommodating to my allergy to strawberries and kept them out of the drinks. Also ate the appetizer sampler platter. Good for even just 2, not super hungry people. The staff was very warm and inviting as well as kind and generous. We did go at a weird time, so there was barely anyone there, which is funny for 6:30 pm on a Saturday. Overall, I can't wait to come back“

“The food was amazing. We started with the bread basket, which came with 4 types of bread. We also had tomato soup as an appetizer special that wasn't on the menu. Then we got the Monday special Jägerschnitzel & it was delicious. The service was great, friendly, fast & efficient but also not rushed. Would definitely recommend for a date night. The ambiance was perfect!“

“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.“

“The food was wonderful. The restaurant was quiet and clean. We have already recommended it to several people and we will be there to eat again!“

“I think I saw an ad for Yafa Cafe on Facebook. We are always searching for good Mediterranean food, it's hard to find in Kansas City. Seeing Kibbeh on the menu automatically moved them to the top on the list. We really enjoyed our meals and appetizers! The kibbeh was good, the spanakopia was good. All of our meals were good. I really enjoyed the creamy chicken plate. The chicken shawarma was good. Everyone liked the kabobs (chicken and beef). We will definitely be back! The owner and employees were very nice and helpful. Highly recommend!“

“Tonight was our for visit but will not be our last. The food was outstanding and the service was excellent.“

“Best BBQ that I have had so far. Meat is so tender and the seasoning just right.“

“honestly one of the best dining restraunts i’ve been too. The cashier was very nice and helped me fix my order after i had messed up and said the wrong thing. the food is amazing and the seasoning on the fries is out of this world.“

“Best hidden gem in Kansas City, they have amazing Gyros 100%. The team there is so friendly. Love the food, go check it out you wont be disappointed🌺❤️“

“Sushi is always fresh and delicious.“

“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!!“

“Honestly we were waiting in line to eat somewhere else and we got tired of waiting and walked down the street to this place. Didn't have very high expectations if I'm being honest. The decore is a little 12 years ago, but it's to be expected. What I didnt expect was how good the food was going to be. First of all they have a pretty good beer selection and a lot of interesting cocktails. We got the chips and queso as a starter (which came out with our food, oh well). Unbelievably delicious. Restaurant made chips, perfectly salty and crisp. Very tasty queso. My wife and I then had the mix and match tacos. I had 2 chicken and 2 mahi mahi and my wife had the cheeseburger and the cane asada. They were all delicious, except the chicken was a little bland.

Our server, I can't remember his name now sorry, was excellent. Very attentive, professional, amiable. Top tier service.

The drinks were a little spendy but that is to be expected I guess. Actually turned out to be the most expensive meal we had on our trip. Big bonus was that there was no wait and the food came out quick. All in all it was a great experience.“

“Awful!!! The chicken was grease soaked & pink, the noodles were overcooked, the Alfredo sauce had so much grease and oil sitting on top. I took a few bites & hours later threw up! The "manager" was supposed to call me for a refund and that never happened. I will never be back or ever recommend. Horrible customer service - thanks for the hour wait for the meal delivery as well as food that was not edible. Also the no call back "to make it right"“

“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 😊“

“Thank you Mano and Barbara for making Gene and Jeffrey’s marriage celebration a wonderful night. We appreciate you and your incredible restaurant.“

“Delicious Japanese food, very friendly and helpful service. Sam's food is great!!“

“Fantastic food and great atmosphere! Worth our tripfrom DFW!“

“Great place, atmosphere, doing it again! #RushTraining“

“The food is amazing! Beckey was very attentive and friendly.“

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

“Delicious! Vegan friendly without compromising flavor or quantity. Somalia’s Chana masala is like a warm hug in the best way. Can’t recommend enough.“

“I remember hearing about this place years ago but never went. It popped up on my FYP on TikTok so I decided to give it a try. My family and I drove down on a Saturday around 12:30. Not sure where it was exactly, we ended up driving by it and having to turn around. There is only street parking available so we parked 1/2 a block up and walked down. We weren’t the only ones who did. The steady flow of people coming in and out was a lot. Good for business. They only accept cash, which is good to know beforehand. We ordered the famous pork tenderloin, a cheeseburger and fries. Everything is alacarte. Which is also good to know beforehand.
The tenderloin had good flavor but was fried very hard. My husband enjoyed his but said it was too spicy, he had the hot sauce. Overall, it was good. Glad we finally tried it.“

“The food is always delicious and the staff is friendly and efficient. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Wonderful atmosphere yummy food truck outside. The energy from Iowa State was intoxicating wonderful place.“

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

“Delicious plant based options. We gave them a try on a recent trip and went back twice in one weekend. My kids also really enjoyed their food. Wish we lived closer!“

“Vietnam Cafe is one of my favorite places to eat. We all love the pho. Spring rolls are amazing and so are the crab rangoons. Our last visit there must have been an ice shortage. LOL and there was some new servers so they weren't very attentive to us but we would go back every day if it were possible. Our kids even love Vietnam Cafe“

“I know this is a bold statement to make, but this restaurant’s the best Lao restaurant I’ve visited thus far in the U.S., and I’ve been to quite my fair share of them in the U.S. in these past seven years. The workers and owner here at Khop jai der noodles are very friendly and the larb nam tok siin, thum khao poon, nam khao, khua mii, Lao beef jerky, Lao sausage, Lao milk tea, red summer drink, and green summer drink are the bomb! I love that all the dishes I ordered are as authentic as how my Lao friends/family and I’d make it, have reasonable prices, and have reasonable portion sizes. A lot of Asian restaurants in the U.S. are all over the place with their spice levels, but this restaurant doesn’t play, and their “hot”/second most spiciest level, was pretty spicy for someone who can tolerate a lot of spice. It’s nice that I was made clear of this as I was ordering. Their wait times are also reasonable. I ordered a lot, not to mention that they were also taking other in-person and over-the-phone orders, but I got all my dishes in less than 30 minutes. I had a fun time talking with Auntie Mimi, the owner, and Uncle Guy, the co-owner, after my meal. Uncle Guy even offered to help me box my food and take my food to my car, but I didn’t take up his offer since I didn’t want to get in the way of other orders/customers. Lastly, I wanted to note that Auntie Mimi was very courteous on the phone when I called two days before my visit to confirm their hours. Restaurants like this one, one that offers authentic Lao dishes and isn’t afraid to label itself and its menu as Lao, are the ones I wish to succeed the most and wish there were more of in places outside of Laos. I was smiling from ear to ear seeing all kinds of customers coming in, ordering the Lao-style of dishes, and seemingly pleased with their orders. This restaurant’s only been open 16 months at the time of my visit, and I hope that it gets all the love and attention it deserves very soon! I certainly can’t wait to check it out again the next time I’m in the area and wouldn’t even mind driving from my home, three and a half hours away, just to eat here!“

“Friendly staff; excellent menu/food; large servings. Terrific experience. We appreciate that they're open on holidays, when so many restaurants are not.“

“Fantastic experience ordering burritos for a large group at my work. Tasty options, easy process, and will be choosing them for catering again!“

“The food was amazing! Best steak I have ever had. Yummy sourdough bread with meal. I couldn’t even finish all of the salad. Service was excellent! Will definitely be back.“

“My husband and I visited for our anniversary dinner and we were not disappointed. I’m dairy free so I usually search for vegan options. I had the mushroom and apple main dish with mash and vegan gravy and my husband had the ribeye. The steak was cooked perfectly and we divided our meals because both were so delicious. It’s rare that we prefer the vegan options and here we did. I also got a vegan desert and it was amazing too. Thanks for the wonderful dinner!“

“I’ve been looking for a new Chinese place since my place has closed. Tao Tao IS my new place!!! The food is phenomenal!! Love “Mama” and Jennifer, the sweetest people ever! Thank you ladies! 🩷“

“I live out of state and found Ashleigh’s Bake Shop. They do a fantastic job of baking my parents favorite pies, which are sour cream raisin and lemon meringue. Highly highly recommend them!“
