42 Best Vegan Restaurants in Newton

“Great food and service. Bierra tacos were great- we drank the au-jus straight as it had nice cinnamon overtones. Guacamole was perfect with the chips light and fluffy. The 3 tacos- were the traditional small one: the pastor had small amounts of pineapple - very traditional; steak (carne asada) was cooked perfectly as little strips and the carnitas has tons of flavor. The trea-leche was a hit with it's nice flavora. The margherita was flavorful and well balanced. The service was amazing- they gave us special hot sauce, not on the menu, when we asked for habanero sauce (they didn't have). Will go again- need to taste everything on the menu!“

“Incredible customer service, the kind that is rare to find! Above and beyond! The pastries are delicious. The Cruffins are light, airy and just the right amount of sweetness. We support small businesses, and this one is a hidden gem!“

“A classic spot for consistent, delicious Italian American dishes.

I went to Fiorella’s with my aunt and cousin, who had both been there many times. The food is great, pretty typical Italian American dishes with a few less common additions, and everything tasted fantastic. They also have a good wine menu, great cocktails, an impressive selection of mocktails.

Our server was amazing! Jamie went above and beyond and truly gave us some of the best service I’ve ever experienced. She was friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and understanding.

I will definitely come back!“

“Fabulous pizza !! Thank you“

“OMG, I just made the Paltaypampa in my V60. This is an amazing coffee. Loaded with flavor and super smooth. I feel like this is the coffee I've been searching for. If you have a chance, get some!!!“

“never had a bad bite here. Their ramen is killer. Tiny place, but worth waiting for a table!“

“Hello my friend, I visited your page on the website, I like everything very much“

“Always great food and tasty food.“

“DELICIOUS FOOD. Very different food fair with choices for all diets. Excellent, friendly service. Good cocktails. I’ll be back !“

“We stopped in on the way home from the airport, and it was amazing! From the moment we walked in the door, we felt welcomed. The atmosphere and food were awesome. I highly recommend the Mickey’s Chicken special and the red sangria which was a deep dark red- as sangria should be. Yum! My children loved our Irish waitress who Made them laugh and feel special. This restaurant is over an hour from where we live, but there is no doubt we will travel back often. Wonderful experience!“

“Wonderful restaurant and bar located in a lovely suburban setting. When you arrive, you are always greeted with a smile and it feels like home. The atmosphere and the food are top notch and you always feel better after having gone there!“

“The chili is amazing. I can’t ever make it home without digging in on the way. Getting soup and chicken from the same place is genius, a full meal that tastes like it came from your own kitchen.“

“Get those awesome skins back…..“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This smoothie shop is a gem! Binka's organization is top-notch—friendly, quick, and always with a smile. The ingredients are incredible, fresh, and clearly chosen with care. You can really taste the difference in every sip. Whether you're looking for a healthy pick-me-up or a post-workout boost, this place has you covered. As a fitness professional I am always looking for the best quality. Highly recommend!“

“Such a wonderful place. The freshest of everything. Home made too. 💯💯💯 worth a try. You will keep coming back.“

“Great, authentic restaurant with an UNBELIEVABLY large menu selection. Ordered several items from different cuisine and everything is satisfactory. I particularly liked 红油抄手(dumpling in chili pepper oil?), but I'd say give everything a try. Dine-in seating is a bit cramped but tolerable.“

“love the food. love the patio. love the family environment.“

“Very friendly Fast Clean Good food Good price“

“Secret find!! Food is amazing 😉!!!“

“my favorite rest. they are the best.ask for george!“

“Phenomenal. I have been dairy free since February and have missed a good cupcake. I went in today and got a bunch of different things to bring back home to the family. Everybody loved everything. The frosted brownies were hands down our favorite and the best we have had. I found the prices to be very reasonable and the staff to be welcoming and friendly. Will be back!“

“The food is fresh and sooo yummy, just incredible! New favorite lunch spot! Definitely recommend!“

“Local live music on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Great staff, fantastic food, creative drinks, nice beer selection.“

“The people are amazingly helpful. The food was so good. We had ordered a delivery from Grubhub but love to go in person.“

“Absolutely amazing Thai food. It’s the best in the Boston area. We will definitely be back!“

“So I noticed that Newton has a restaurant called Coconut Cafe, and I thought it would be funny to get a picture of a Lime Bike inside the front door, because “you put the Lime in the Coconut” and all that, so I went over there today, and the place turns out to be pretty nice and I was already feeling like this wouldn’t be a particularly polite (or funny) joke, but anyway the closest Lime Bike I could find was about a block away, and when I tried picking it up to bring it over to Coconut Cafe to maybe get a “put the lime *by* the coconut” photo instead, the bike started talking to me, saying “PLEASE PAY ME A DOLLAR AND YOU CAN RIDE ME! PLEASE PUT ME DOWN OR I WILL CALL THE POLICE! THIS IS YOUR SECOND WARNING, I AM ABOUT TO CALL THE POLICE.” and I decided that this stupid joke wasn’t worth getting arrested for and at that point I was too annoyed to pay the dollar to unlock the bike to ride it a grand total of about 30 feet for a joke photo that the owner of the shop would justifiably get mad at me for anyway, so I left the bike there and just had lunch instead (Bangkok-style veggie pad thai, they told me it would take 15 minutes but then it was ready in about 1.5 minutes, so that was nice) and it was delicious. Thank you for reading my story have a nice day.“

“This is a great take out spot, and the prices CANNOT be beaten ! Consistent, delicious, and cheap-what more could you want from a Viet place? Maybe better parking, but not a far walk/stroll from the municipal lot. Did I mention fast? They ONLY do take out, so find a nice picnic spot or bring it home. Bahn Mi holds up for a long drive“

“We recently stayed in Newton for a mini vacation from Canada (visiting Boston). Every night of our stay we ate at this restaurant. I know, not overly adventurous but when the food is this good and the atmosphere is right, why bother looking? You won’t find better! We tried: - Pan seared chicken: AMAZING. - Fish and chips: when you live on the east coast it’s hard to get good fish and chips but these hit the mark! - Filet Mignon: Full of flavour and tender. - Steak Tips: Again, tender and full of flavour. - Risotto: Wonderfully strong mushroom flavour but yet offset with a field of flavours. - Scallops: Seared to perfection. - Short-rib Meatballs: Meat and cheese combo to die for. - Calamari: Another difficult one to get right and find fresh! This was one of my favourite with the dip and hot peppers. - Sirloin: Cooked to perfection, flavour was a hit and a good portion size, well worth the money. THE HOUSE SALAD: All I can say, EMAIL ME THE RECIPE FOR THE DRESSING!! This was the best item for me on the menu. Fresh, simple and full of flavour. I got it with every meal. So to recap: 10/10“

“Excellent!!! The best in Town!!!“

“Loved it. Great patio. Asparagus taco appetizer is simply delish!!“

“After driving to two places that were either closed or stopped making food, my bf and I went to this place we always passed in the area but never went to. Decided to give a chance. Got soup and two chicken pitas. So good and I mean so good. I’m particular on my chicken gyro and I rarely eat the whole thing. But this time I did. They’re not the size of your leg like some places do but it’s a reasonable portion. Leaves room to eat the delicious lemon chicken soup. I am totally getting it on my day off this week. And the service was pretty quick.“

“JP Licks is a long standing Ice cream chain throughout the Boston area.

Staff scoop quickly, Ice cream is fresh and tasty. The ice cream is on the expensive side, but is rich in flavor, a bit sweet but not overly sweet, and has a great taste.

They have soft serve options as well as yogurt available, and there are many flavors available for ice cream as well.“

“My first couple of veg*n outings in this town were terrible, so everything since has been a delightful contrast. None less than Clover. Unsure why this chain is not entirely vegan - surely they could replace the cheese and sour cream (and egg) with vegan substitutes - but anyway I had the Mediterranean Bowl: falafels with chickpea and eggplant salad (could not identify any eggplant), pickled red cabbage and a green tart tahini dressing on the side. Very, very tasty. Tho be warned - if you don’t like your meals drowned in tahini, perhaps best to request this on the side.“

“Great Service and great food“

“#SweetTomatoes 🍅 🍅 🍅 has been a favorite staple food in my family, and it is like #homesweethome!
I can always trust #SweetTomatoes to serve delicious and mouthwatering artisan pizza.
#SweetTomatoes scrumptious sauce perfectly complements their pizza toppings.
One of my favorites is mushroom, pepperoni, black olives, artichokes, and garlic pizza pie.
No one does pizza better!
Their service is efficient, and the atmosphere is a slice of Americana hometown neighborhood vibe.
#SweetTomatoes most definitely
epitomizes well-made and delectable pizza in #Boston.
#SweetTomatoes is my FAVORITE #pizza.
I highly recommend you make #SweetTomatoes your favorite pizza place, too!“

“food was great and service line moved right aling“

“I highly recommend this place“

“Best donuts in the area! Their donuts are incredible in flavor. They’re light, fluffy, and delicious - my kids request them every week! Our favorites are vanilla glaze, everything donut, and the Apple fritter. Sometimes they have savory tarts which are SO good. We especially love the pride donuts they have every June. Blackbird employees are always so friendly and welcoming as well, which is also appreciated. Blackbird also delivers through DoorDash, and the donuts are always delivered fresh. The Newton location does not have a bathroom, fyi but that does not detract from the amazing food! Thank you Blackbird for being such a wonderful addition to our community!“

“The espresso is good quality, but I happen to absolutely despise the taste of oat milk, so 3 inches of oat milk cold foam on my whole milk latte kind of ruined it this time. I did not see anywhere in the menu specifying that the cold foam would be made from oat milk..“

“I really liked the PULL FOR CHARITY. Baramor donates $3 every pint poured to the non-profit charity. It’s a great way to donate.“

“⸻ We had such a wonderful Easter brunch experience at the Riverbend! The food was absolutely delicious — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and perfect for a relaxing meal. The service was outstanding as well; the staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel right at home. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a top-notch brunch experience. We'll definitely be back!“
