50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Newton Centre

“The absolute best breakfast/lunch spot in Newton!“

“It’s been a while since I had a buffet they did not Disappoint me.“

“Love the food. Miso ramen broth was great. Music they played was very irritating. They played the cover version of pop songs. I wish they would just play the real version of the songs. It sounded like in those YouTube videos when they can’t play the real version because of copyright. Love the food though!“

“Best gluten free pizza anywhere! Really nice people Dino is the owner and he’s a delightful man.“

“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!“

“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!“

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

“We stopped by here on Halloween needing some fuel for our trip to Salem! It did not disappoint! We were welcomed with smiles and free falafel tasters. It was a Friday special so we had extra falafel with the falafel bowl order too. I ordered the falafel bowl, which was INCREDIBLE! My husband had another bowl which I can't remember what it was called but it had egg in it - he also enjoyed this. There is a small seating area inside and some additional seats on the street. It was reasonably priced for the centre of Boston and I'd highly recommend! Updated from previous review on 2025-11-29“

“The food was A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!! Perfect for a special occasion.“

“Great tapas / quite filling“

“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.“

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

“Had dinner at Lucy's while adventuring and it was hands down incredible! Everything was outstanding. The staff, the food, the environment, right down to the ice cold water and beer! 🤣 I will definetly be going again, because I wanted everything on the menu! Thank you Lucy's!“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“Incredible, incredible, incredible food!!! When I was placing order I was thinking “it’s just noodles. How surprising it can be.” I was wrong. Never ever in my life I tried something like this before. There is so much flavor to explore in the noodles: the peanuts, the peanut butter, the mayo, the tofu, the spicy peppers… you don’t get the flavory-mixed paste covering everything, that would be homogeneous. But no, the ingredients come by themselves. And that’s the pure joy of vegetarian food: when made right, you don’t get repetition. You’d discover how rich in flavours those ingredients can be. I was hugely satisfied upon completing my meal. 100% recommended.“

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

“Food and service were outstanding (way better than a year or two ago). Ambiance is somehow slightly lacking. Could use a warm it up decor update but we had a great meal. All four in our group care a lot about good food and all agreed it was excellent. Don't be overly influenced by how much they suggest you order. We are hearty eaters and ordered considerably less than they suggested and felt it was perfect.“

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

“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.“

“Service was quick and effecient. Wait staff gave me a great recommendation for lunch. The short rib curry was delicious; came with rice. Dining area was small, but single seats long the window were open. Price for the entree was $22, but short ribs don't come cheap. The meat fell off the bones, and it made a tasty curry! There were also peas and peppers in the curry. Spice level was perfect, big flavor, not heat.“

“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.“

“The Dungeon Master Roll the Dice“

“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!“

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

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

“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“

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

“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!!“

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

“Last minute decision to go to the Capital Grill for dinner. We had a 5 yr old in our party, everyone on the staff was amazing!! They were accommodating and very welcoming. They brought over “special “ plates for the 5 yr old. The server and food were flawless!“

“Excellent, creative, tasty and healthy food in a very welcoming and relaxing space. Wish you would open one on the South Shore!“

“My wife and I ate there recently the meal was phenomenal. I had the double cut veal with a mushroom demi. The veal was so tender and juicy, it was the best I have ever had. My wife had the seafood alfredo and has not stopped talking about it since. Staff was friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu. The chef even stopped by the table to check in on things. He gave me a couple of techniques on how things were put together. An exceptional experience from the moment I walked in the door. Thank You to everyone who made it happen!“

“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.“
