50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Charlestown

“Great food great drink and beer list. Awesome place. We’ve been 3 times in the last month and can’t wait to go back“

“Got to have a good cold beer and some great food this past Friday before Participating in the 250th Anniversary of The Battle of Bunker Hill. We came all the way from Roxboro North Carolina. People were friendly, don’t know if it was my Southern Accent 😁 but either way I had a great time relaxing at the Tavern.“

“Perched with killer views, this spot dishes out some seriously tasty grub. The clam chowder was a creamy dream, and the fish and chips? Crispy perfection. Portions are massive—come hungry! The kids’ menu is a beast, packed with options for picky eaters.
But, it’s not all smooth sailing. Dropped my rating from 5 to 4 stars because they tried to sneak in charges for kids’ menu sides that are supposed to be included. They claimed they’d fix it, but one charge still slipped through. Also, my beer arrived with some mystery substance smeared on the rim of the glass—yuck. They swapped it out quick, but still. Solid spot, just check your bill and your glass!“

“Go on Karoke night. The is a woman who sings “green eyes lady” that blew me away.

Reminded me of the Hideout in Chicago and that bar in Starwars.

Great spot, great sign, great talent behind the stick.“

“Yalllll ….. this pizza joint is amazing. We landed in Boston on a Saturday night and were desperate to find a place to eat. We parked in front and the smell of the pizza was mouthwatering.

Super friendly guys!!!

The meat lovers pizza was SUPER delicious & the Greek salad we ordered was great.
The brownies were bomb!!

Clearly it’s a local fave bc they were pretty busy but quick and timely.? worth the flight from Texas lol“

“Asia Mei is easily one of the best Chefs in Boston. I've eaten here several times, but I can't believe that I haven't written a review before now! My husband and I had brunch at moonshine 152 last weekend and told friends about it. Next thing you know, the four of us were in there around noon time today having brunch again. We shared three starters, alongside sharing all four entrées and everything, I mean everything was to die for! Ms Asia herself delivered some of our plates and she is just as delightful as she is talented. Needless to say, dinner is amazing here as well. The vibe in the restaurant is so easy and you can tell that the staff get along very well together. What I can't believe is how this place wasn't fully packed today or last weekend even. Definitely a good amount of patrons, but I've had brunch at places that are hard to get into and left much less satisfied.“

“Wow, it was such a treat to have breakfast at a place with no meat in the U.S.!
Not only is it vegetarian, but almost every dish can be made vegan, which is just amazing!
I had the vegan version of the breakfast burrito and it was super tasty, especially with the roasted Brussels sprouts on the side ,so good. I wasn’t crazy about the slightly sweet sauce, but with a bit of salt and their hot sauce it was perfect.
The waitress was so sweet, and the whole vibe was a 10/10. There’s so much more on the menu I want to try, so I’m definitely coming back!“

“the oysters are out of sight! delicious bravo! bouillabaisse was amazing! I did like my server. I do suggest they get some sleep nobody was smiling.“

“Always great food! We always hit this spot when we are in or going through Boston!“

“Tucked away in a quiet corner, The Hummus Shop in Boston is a hidden gem you shouldn’t miss. Don’t let its small size fool you—this place delivers big on flavor. The vegan and vegetarian dishes are absolutely fantastic, with everything tasting incredibly fresh and well-prepared. The staff are warm, polite, and make you feel right at home. Prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Be sure to try their spicy pumpkin sauce—it’s unique, flavorful, and elevates any dish on the menu. A must-visit spot for anyone who loves wholesome, delicious food.“

“Great tapas / quite filling“

“Lovely spot with spectacular views of the water. Beautifully designed interior. Delicious, creative food. Great service.“

“The best meal- great service- Beautiful atmosphere And warm friendly hostess“

“Perfect place for Mothers Day when Valet is a must!“

“What an amazing place. In these times when we are still not comfortable dining indoors this place rocks. The chef behind these dishes knows a thing or two about bringing beer garden food to a totally new level. Thank you chef and staff in front of the house.“

“Dining in a cozy yurt surrounded by freshly fallen snow was fun winter experience for our family. Great ambiance, and the food and service were exceptional. Highly recommend for a unique and memorable outing!“

“Quality ingredients. A sublime attention to detail. Balance in salty, umami and heat. The broccoli Caesar is a must have along with the homemade ricotta. I sat at Chefs counter and got wonderful attention from everyone. Amazing!“

“Stopped in on a Thursday night with the family, no reservations, and waited about 35 minutes for a table. Totally worth it.

We ordered two pizzas, the burrata salad, and a charcuterie board, and everything hit the mark. The pizzas were perfectly cooked, great crust and flavor, the burrata was fresh and creamy, and the charcuterie board was exactly what you’d hope for—quality meats and cheeses done right.

Food came out quick, service was friendly and efficient, and the overall vibe was casual but lively.

Bottom line: food was mad good, everyone left happy, and I’d absolutely come back.“

“Good food, great prices & friendly service! 👌“

“Just WOW. 6 of us were lucky enough to grab a reservation here on a Wednesday night and EVERYTHING that we ordered every single person at our table with different taste profiles just LOVED.
Such unique flavor profiles using local ingredients! Gnocchi and rigatoni along with burrata salad were standouts, but we would order everything again on a heartbeat. Chef did some amazing things that are creative yet perfectly approachable.
Great service and wine as well. Definitely on our list to visit next time we are in Boston!“

“The pizza was fantastic and the atmosphere was great. Regina's North End“

“Stellar high protein vegan options Colorful & happy inside PB&J açaí bowl with peanut crumble is amazing I’ve tried making it at home & can’t crack their secret Oatmilk is their default!! :))) They literally supply nutritional yeast with the salt & pepper Only room for improvement is making it fully vegan 💗 Updated from previous review on 2025-08-09“

“This place is amazing!! The customer service was top notch!!“

“It matches the hype. The Sicilian Pizza is…perfect. There’s not enough superlatives to do it justice and if there were, even then it wouldn’t reach hyperbole. Craziest thing of it all is the pricing. Four slices, arancini, and a drink for $16.00? How? In today’s economy how are they keeping the price this low? Also amazing. Just go. Don’t think about it, don’t pass go, don’t collect $200…go get your dang perfect slice.“

“We loved everything about this restaurant. We had a great table in the window, our server was so knowledgeable and her recommendations were outstanding and the food, the food!! We had a mix of meals, seafood, pasta, special truffle course, and the chocolate cookies. Every single bit was delicious. We will definitely be back - if we can get a coveted table!“

“The Dungeon Master Roll the Dice“

“Life Alive in Cambridge has a relaxed, welcoming vibe and exceptional organic food. Everything is fresh and thoughtfully prepared — the soups are especially comforting on a chilly Boston day. I love eating on the lower level; it feels cozy and peaceful. A perfect spot to unwind and enjoy nourishing flavor.“

“Great menu. Beautiful presentation of excellently prepared choices. Delightful competent staff. You’ll be lucky to have Carlos as your waiter.“

“Very Energetic! Bartender was fantastic“

“Delicious vegetarian/vegan and gluten free friendly food. The Gobi Manchurian Cauliflower is delicious.“

“THIS PLACE WENT FROM BEING ONE OF THE BEST GEMS TO A PLACE THAT FEELS SO UNCOMFORTABLE TO EVEN SET A FOOT IN. I'VE BEEN TO THIS PLACE FOR OVER 10 YEARS, SINCE PANDEMIC HAVE NOT GONE. WE FINALLY WENT, THE MINUTE I WALKED IN THE PERSON AT CASHIER SAID WHEN YOUR READY TO ORDER YOU COME HERE, BLINDED BY IT AS IS A RESTAURANT NOT A FAST FOOD SPOT I LOOKED AT HER AND ASK FOR THE MENU SHE LOOKS AT ME AND POINTS INFRONT OF HER TO GO GET IT MIND YOU, THERE ARE 3 OTHER PEOPLE BEHIND HER WHO WORK THERE .....I LET IT PASS AND TRIED TO GIVE THIS PLACE A SECOND CHANCE COMING BACK THE FOLLOWING WEEK AS THE FOOD ACTUALLY WAS GOOD THE WEEK PRIOR. WELL SERVICE WAS ONLY WORSE THIS TIME AROUND, THE WOMAN AT CASHIER LOOKED BOTHER BY JUST BEING THERE TAKING OUR ORDER AS THE TIME PRIOR OTHER PEOPLE BEHIND HER WHO ALSO WORKED THERE STANDING JUST THERE. WE GET OUR FOOD REALIZING I GOT CORN TORTILLAS ASKED IF THEY CAN BE SWITCHED TO FLOURONE OF THE EMPLOYEES RESPONSE WELL IF YOU DON'T EAT THEM THERE GOING TO THE TRASH AND I AM LOOKING AT HER LIKE OKAY IS FINE CAN I PAY FOR AN EXTRA ORDER OF TORTILLAS OF FLOUR. THE AMOUNT OF DISPLEASSURE THESE WOMAN HAVE BEING THEIR IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE DON'T SPEND YOUR MONEY WHERE YOU DON'T WANT TO BE SERVED, ASIDE FROM THE FOOD FEELING SO RUSH THIS TIME AROUND AS WE GOT THERE AT 8 THEY CLOSED AT 10PM. I UNDERSTAND RESTAUTANT INDUSTRY IS NOT EASY BUT FOR ME TO GO TO AND SPEND MY MONEY IN A PLACE THAT FEELS SO FORCED TO WORK IS NOT WORTH MY TIME NOR MONEY.“

“Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Highly recommend.“

“I love it there my first time there and the staff’s were amazing and I did enjoy everything“

“A very good find for excellent Thai food. The flavours were spot on. Careful about the level of heat you can handle.
Make sure to order your appetizers first only. Order your mains only after, otherwise everything arrives at the same time and in no particular order.“

“One of the best full-service restaurants in Boston!“

“This company fires employees over nothing, due to mangers latent laziness, and refusal to back up there emploees. a good bricklayer made about 350 in the early 1980's @ chubbs tequila bar your local 7 iron workers had there charter revoked in philidelpia, I wonder why the landmark doesn't have a social media“

“This evening my husband and I went to Capital Grill Boston location and had Noel as our server. Everything was amazing! The food, the service AND ... they celebrated a birthday I had a month and half ago. I am truly humbled by how personalized this service is. This restaurant is top tier! Cheers to management who know how to run a restaurant, the waiters and waitresses who are exceptional and to the chefs who always serve an absolutely incredible meal! Thank you“

“The wait staff is incredibly friendly. We heard the onion rings were heavenly. We were not disappointed. However the salad we ordered and shared was one of the best salads I have ever tasted. I think it was the Hot Cold Chicken Salad. Absolutely delicious! After 10 pm the sandwiches are half price and they all looked delicious too!!“

“extremely attentive staff, our meal was brought very promptly. bathroom could accommodate my wheelchair easily. we loved spending a special night there, and are already looking forward to our return visit“

“We took a friend out to dinner at Oleana last night for her birthday and it was one of the best meals we’ve had. We loved being able to share and sample so many dishes, and each one was a masterful balancing of herbs, spices and flavors. The service was also top-notch. We can’t wait to return! It’s no surprise that it’s hard to get a reservation.“

“Ambiance and ambiance and beer and beer“

“Ciao…I love them so much. Their food never fails to amaze me. Owners are amazing, shout out *Edson and Marvin*. Will be eating here again!!🙌🏽“

“By far the best, authentic Italian food in the North End. We have dined at several restaurants but the service, ambience and food is the best! They make their own pasta and sauces daily. I cannot recommend Casarecce enough. Delicioso.“

“The mimosas are amazing!!“

“Incredible! I dine here all the time.“
