42 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Newton

“I love everthing about this incredible gem in the heart of Newton Center.“

“Dinner was amazing! I’m still dreaming of that spinach salad!“

“1st time here. Have driven by hundreds of times......not sure what I was thinking....it took figuring out that you can't get Alaskan King crab legs at Legal Seafoods to force me to try this place out. Took an order to go. A+ yes messy....very messy the middle Hot sauce was excellent and everywhere. Good fun. Shared as an appetizer and we all agree Good stuff. They have "All you can Eat" on Sat and Sun I believe for $30 so a great deal. We will try again. Tiny place maybe 10-12 tables so use OpenTable. I tried Boston they did not have anything for 3-4 days at 7pm. Also had a Brookline reservation. There are ~24 locations in 8-10 states.“

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

“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!“

“Fantastic food, service and atmosphere! A must try for dinner in the Boston area 🙂“

“Fabulous pizza !! Thank you“

“I was raised in Chicago and I take pizza seriously! Frank Pepe Pizzeria is now my favorite pizza place! Their crust is sublime. Fresh, delicious ingredients every time. I've been there now 3 times for take-out. I am in Newton often, and I stop by on my way back to Hudson. I highly recommend them! Their Staff are friendly and hard-working.“

“Good food and drinks; excellent service“

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

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

“Delicious and reasonably priced! The high was the gluten free menu which made it simple to know exactly what I could eat (they also have gluten free soy sauce). Waitress answered all of my questions and made me feel comfortable eating there with celiac disease!“

“Always great food and tasty food.“

“great food, great service, and very friendly. worked with my nut allergy, which can be hard to find sometimes. Definitely worth check out if your in the area!“

“Consistently Delicious food, fabulous sangria, good service, and fun patio for the warmer months. We have been coming here for many years. Highly recommend!“

“Awesome good food and awesome prices! Kid friendly and everybody is chill!“

“Love the food but their delivery is getting worse and worse. If you order before 5 p.m. it is nice if it can be delivered by 6:30 pm (especially if that is the window they promised). Did all we can to keep this place open during the pandemic but may need to start looking elsewhere for our family's sushi fix. VERY disappointed about their service.“

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

“Went a few weeks ago Saturday morning and went back again today, 12/28 in the morning. Good food and service. However there are only 4 booths and high stools. I can’t sit on a high stool and I know that someday there won’t be any tables available. Otherwise great place.“

“The toasted Italian was great“

“Best wings and ribs I have ever tasted!!“

“Secret find!! Food is amazing 😉!!!“

“Great food and great service..👍“

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

“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“

“Great Service and great food“

“Excellent!!! The best in Town!!!“

“Oak Hill Pizza was recommended by the front desk staff at the Residence Inn in Needham, Ma, and they were right on the money. We placed a fairly large order, four pies and sides, for an impromptu 2nd birthday party for our grandson. All of the food arrived at the time requested, piping hot, and absolutely delicious. The person who took our order over the phone was courteous and helpful. I should add that we're from Michigan, land of the one inch crust, where pizzas are often judged by how much they weigh. It was a delight to encounter an East Coast pizza with a thin, crispy crust, with the emphasis on quality toppings and great flavor, instead of enormous quantity. When we return to Boston, we'll be sure to order our pies from Oak Hill!“

“From the moment we decided to have Pizza Market West Newton cater our Christmas party, we knew we made the right choice. This local, family-run business went above and beyond to ensure our event was nothing short of spectacular. The quality and taste of their food were incredible, leaving all our guests raving about the delicious pizzas and the variety of options available. Their attention to detail, prompt service, and warm hospitality added a personal touch that made our celebration even more special. It's not just the mouth-watering food that makes Pizza Market stand out; it's the passion and care they put into every order. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and are grateful to have such a gem in West Newton. Highly recommend to anyone looking to make their event memorable with fantastic food and service!“

“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.“

“everything we ever ordered has been fabulous. and the service is excellent.“

“Loved their nachos. Great cocktails too. Very pleasant staff. The only negative was the air wasn’t working in the room we were in. They did have giant fans to help the air move though. I’d def. go again.“

“great pizza hot rolls and dipping oil. kid friendly excellent service“

“I highly recommend this place“

“This place was great but the atmosphere was a little messing the food was sorta slow but the wait was worth it they do delivery and pickup I ordered fried rice and some kind of chicken it was so good I couldn’t stop until my belly was too full to eat 😃😃😃😃😃😃it was awesome“

“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.“

“They serve some of the best curly fries I’ve had in Massachusetts- the seasoning was perfect. We only tried four of the wing flavors but all four were excellent. The person working was by herself but was kind and quick and pleasant. Looking forward to going back!“

“Once in a while I have a craving from my childhood and thats' bitter melon and because no one else in my family will eat this, I go to Dumpling House. I have it as a stir fried dish with a protein. It is delicious, slightly different to how I had it growing up (we had it with black bean sauce). But this is just as delicious, not as bitter (slightly sweet) and not garlicky at all. It certainly satisfies my craving. Only negative is that it doesn't come with rice and one has to order that separately. Service is efficient, friendly and timely. I'll continue to come back again!“

“We've only had the weekend Taiwanese brunch here. Food is pretty authentic with a good variety. Some of our favorites here are the soy milk, beef and scallions Xiao bin, and the steamed pork ribs with sweet potato. These are consistently good and well prepared, especially the Xiao bin which has a nice crispy crust. The soy milk actually have a lot of soy flavor and not too sweet. The beef noodle soup is fine but is mostly salty and has no depth of flavor. The filling in the chives pie is decent but the wrapping is greasy and doughy.

Service is efficient though not very friendly. Prices are not cheap for the type of food. We come to this restaurant purely for the food. It's a bit dim inside and furnishings old but relatively clean. Overall, it's great to have this restaurant to get a taste of Taiwan that we miss.“

“⸻ 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!“

“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.“

“My favorite burritos in the Boston area, and quality is always consistent from Cambridge to Brookline to Newton over the past dozen years. I love it and will keep coming back!

But don't order online. Last time it took me over an hour after I ordered to actually get the food, waiting there in the restaurant for more than a half hour. If I had gone straight to the counter it would have taken 5 minutes.

Edit: If I could wish for just one change to the menu, it would be to have a vegan protein similar to Chipotle sofritas. Otherwise you just have beans, rice, and vegetables - which are pretty good, but not as satisfying.

But Anna's has the best variety of meat options, including three kinds of chicken. The pollo ranchero keeps me coming back despite my goal of limiting meat in my diet, it's just too good! And when in season, the agua fresca is second to none - horchata is quite good too.“
