50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Chalmette

“Made a trip here for the first time today. The food was delicious and the portions enormous. We got the level 3 to start, and didn’t find it too spicy; but my husband and I love chilis and the endorphin rush that comes with them. Next time we will try 4 or 5. I appreciate the policy for no exchanges or refunds for food that is too spicy. At other Thai restaurants we ask for food to be Thai hot, and we usually get blown off. We’ll be back!!“

The whole experience was top-notch, and we can’t wait to come back!“

“We stayed at a hotel right near here and didn't even realize this place was vegan until stepping in for a quick bite! It doesn't make things super obvious just walking by, but they have a great selection of sweet or savory vegan breakfast options. I had the biscuit sandwich and some donuts, all delicious.“

“Bob Boudreau and I were in NOLA for 9 nights. Three of the nights we had reservations at other places with family. Our 1st night we looked up and found Jewel of the South. We loved it so much. we asked our nephew, his medical school advisor and his wife to join us. All three lived in NOLA and had never been here. All 5 of us would definitely go back in a heart beat. Great food. Great atmosphere. Great drinks. Great staff. GREAT ALL AROUND! FIVE STARS for Jewel of the South.“

“Great food! You can tell everything is fresh made Excellent quality, flavorful, very good portion and friendly people. I’m definitely coming back. It took a little bit longer than I expected but it’s understandable because there were busy. <3

Vegetarian options: All vegan ?“

“The food is amazing. The service is impeccable. I had the grits and shrimp so delicious. I will be back.“

“Amazing food and drinks. We loved everything from the pork, fish rundown, and spectacular salads. Cocktails were great as well - pimms, and hurricane.
Kudos to the kitchen and bar. Unfortunately our waiter, David, was horrendous. He seemed annoyed by every aspect of serving our party. Everyone else at the restaurant seemed lovely, like the previous times we've dined there. Shocking someone so mismatched with the restaurant is working there“

“The food is fresh and made to order. I had the Mushroom Po Boy and was blown away at how crispy, crunchy, and flavorful it was. This sandwich is enough to feed two people. I highly recommend Two Phat Vegans!!“

“Best pizza in Louisiana, period. Staff was super friendly, 10/10 would smash these pies again daily.“

“Outstanding service and food! I just had the pecan crusted drum and it was nothing short of amazing! Highly recommended!“

“In NOLA for a conference. While sightseeing in the Garden District we discovered this delicious restaurant. The restaurant itself is adorable- the food beyond delicious. Can’t wait to visit again!“

“We stopped by for our last evening in New Orleans. They had a long list of mocktails and n/a beers, which were perfect for our family. The food tasted different from other Thai food we have had - some more like Indian food and some more like Chinese food. We got two appetizers (okra & tofu satay) and two entrees (a tofu noodle soup and a jackfruit curry). We also got a small slice of the chai cheesecake - which I didn't know at the time cost $22! There are awards on the wall that show that the chef won 2 New Orleans vegan cooking contests. Service was very nice and attentive. 20% tip is included and there are signs saying that this is to help them pay a living wage. Two appetizers, 2 entrees, one Thai iced tea, one n/a beer, 3 mocktails, and one small slice of cheesecake came to $175 including the tip. You can decide if that's what you're looking for! I'd say our average meal in New Orleans, buying one of just about every vegan option and sharing it at many different restaurants, cost about $80, so this is much more expensive. Bonus though, they give you pandan water, which we discovered is delicious! Updated from previous review on 2025-04-11“

“Stopped in for brunch before a show at the Saenger. We mainly chose here because of the convenience, but we’re so glad we did! Food was excellent and staff was very friendly. Our children enjoyed everything too! Mofongo was delicious and I appreciated the mocktail the bartender made for my daughter. 10/10 recommend.“

“Well established bakery for sure. This place was recommended by a friend who is a local. We tried pecan meltaways and eclairs. Both were delicious. We would come back if we visit New Orleans again.

Parking: Free parking, but limited spots“

“I’m so in love with zesty creole food, great atmosphere, amazing employees like Nazima, Eva and Beyaz love love love ❤️ 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍😍“

“Had to visit as I heard this was one of the best places to get donuts and coffee. Came here on our last night after dinner and got the espresso with ice cream and a shake along with a cinnamon roll to share with my honey. The shake was a perfect consistency. Then came here again the day we were leaving out as they have Koloches. Haven’t seen those since we lived in Texas. It was pretty good but that Vietnamese coffee 🤤🤤🤤 it was soo good. I’m craving it now as I write this. Then got some donuts for the road. All very good. Highly recommend this place.“

“It’s dark, it’s cool, and they’ll play 60’s/70’s rock gems as the house music. The food is pretty good too. This is my favorite spot I’ve found after several years living in The Quarter. The vibe is perfect. Its the darkness and the music that really makes me not want to leave. It’s rock’n’roll without being a dive. Oh yeah, did I say the food is pretty good too?“

“Super cute spot with a great menu. Our server was lovely and her recommendation did not disappoint! Went with the grits bowl and it was the BEST grits I've ever had, complete with sauteed veggies, fried eggs, and crispy bacon. Also, the fresh juice was delicious. Definitely recommend if you're in the area!“

“Food and service were very good. The waiter recommended what to eat as this was our first time. All recommendations were good. Thank you for the nice exoerience“

“They make the best Chocolate Sorbet in the world!“

“During a trip to New Orleans a place you must stop to eat is The Stanley. The food is amazing and is only outdone by the staff. I recommend the breakfast sandwich and the loaded grits. I even picked up a sandwich for the flight home.“

“What a wonderful place! After a bad experience at another fine dining with an inept manager, this place was fantastic! The staff was welcoming and food delish! Had the duck soup and some of other items and so worth it. Highly recommend this place!“

“The wait for our food was AWFUL!!!!!! However, our waitress was so amazing/kept us updated and the food, once it reached our table, was amazing per usual.“

“Really great staff and extremely fresh and delicious ingredients. Breakfast smoked salmon dish was really, really good.“

“We are in New Orleans from Minnesota and I wanted grits for breakfast; something rarely done right where we live. I had the smothered pork chop with grits and my husband had the shrimp and grits. It. Was. Heaven. I can only eat a small amount of food and I rarely miss the days where I could inhale massive portions of food, but today was that day.“

“Excellent bubbles, food and service“
