50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Winnipeg

“all food is amazing, delicious mean no words for BEST food.“

“This review is in regards to Alyssa Willson. Alyssa has been a consistent leader for Joey's Polo Park location bar for as long as I can remember. Despite her many tasks in her managerial position, she still takes the time to weave through all the tables and genuinely interact with the familiar faces of return guests to really give the welcoming family feel at this locations. She is always smiling, despite the array of different situations showing from afar to each guest that everything is running smoothly from in front of house to the kitchen staff. She's an asset to the Fuller Family Group the and sky limit for this one.“

“The food and the ambiance. Kudos to the server for the great service even when he seemed to be working the floor by himself. Lou Boisjoli“

“Excellent service with meticulous attention to detail was provided. Our male server was truly exceptional. My colleague ordered an expertly crafted Old Fashioned. We opted for the lamb shank with polenta. The lamb was tender and flavorful, and the polenta was creamy with a delightful texture. The duck tagliatelle was freshly prepared and remarkably tender; it is definitely a dish suitable for sharing. The flavors were rich and delicious. The warmed beet salad with blood orange and mascarpone was a surprisingly delightful combination for the palate. We finished with the ricotta zepole in a caramel sauce, and we were bursting at the seams with leftovers. Four diverse plates were offered at an exceptional price point. I intend to return.“

“We celebrated my 50th birthday here last night. Everything was fresh and delicious. I really enjoyed my bison curried stew and the rest of the group said their food was excellent. The ambience is warm and cozy. We enjoyed looking at their decors. Best of all was the top-notch service of the staff. We would be back there. Definitely recommend the place.“

“The staff and chef are super accommodating and friendly but I’ll tell you, the food?! THE FOOD?! Amazing!! Serious flavours. Don’t sleep on this place. You’d be missing out.“

“Very good food. Comin back real soon.“

“Sat down, ordered, and received our breakfast in less than 7 minutes. They have some morning specials, he got 2 pancakes, bacon, sausage, and 2 eggs, for $9.99. I had 2 eggs, bacon, hash browns, 2 pieces of toast for $10.99. Well worth the money. Thank you! Server was attentive .“

“I just wanted to say my family and I had a great time last night, and we've missed dining out like that. Our server was very patient with us cause I'm not sure we remembered how to behave in a restaurant. All in all, a wonderful time with good food.“

“love the food And the service is amazing very clean quiet place“

“Overall great experience. Our server Zoe was very attentive and always nearby. Everything was quick and our meals were very good.“

“This place is so cute, we love coming to this restaurant! We highly recommend it to our friends and family. Just went for the 3rd time today with some friends and had a loverly meal.“

“Colossal is the way to go 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄Seriously 3 pounds of awesomeness I like to buy this at least once a month for sure“

“I’ve been going to OEB since they had the original little shop on Edmonton Trail with the ridiculous lines. I’m glad that they constantly tinker with the menu and add experiments but please bring back my Hogs and Scallops. I don’t care if scallops cost more now, raise the price but keep it on the menu.“

“The most incredible sourdough everything! Cinnamon nutmeg cinnamon bun has got to be one of the best treats. I never eat much gluten because my insides suck, but Eadha bread I’m ok with! (I am not celiac) . Atmosphere only 3 stars because I wish there was a dine in option and air conditioner haha. Love this happy , community minded, queer bakery. I just need to remember money next time for their pay it forward bread vouchers.“

“Hands down, the best oxtail stew I’ve ever had and the homemade hot sauce is perfection in a bottle. (The rotis are all amazing as well, I’m just a sucker for a good oxtail).“

“went there recently and ended up really enjoying the food. I ordered the loaded nachos, and honestly, the portion was huge. It was way more than I expected, but in a good way. I couldn’t finish it all, so I ended up taking some home, and it still tasted great later. I also tried their wings, which were delicious. They had a few different flavors, and I sampled a couple, but the hot one was definitely my favorite. It had the right amount of heat without killing the taste.
The place overall had a relaxed vibe, and the service was pretty quick. It’s the kind of spot where you can just hang out, eat good food, and not feel rushed. If you’re into big portions and solid wings, it’s definitely worth checking out. I’d go back just for the nachos and the hot wings alone.“

“So friendly and traditional food I cannot recomend this place enough,,, Do yourself a favor and go, it is so worth it.“

“Capital Grill exceeded our expectations! From warm service to prompt seating, we felt valued. The short rib was flavorful with hints of rosemary, and the New York Steak salad was a symphony of flav…“

“beautiful treats and beautiful hearts!“

“I was very glad I came here to eat. The food was just delicious and impeccable. Our server Charles was very accommodating, friendly and professional. Drinks were perfect and the presentation of the food was amazing and inviting. The atmosphere was pleasant and warm as well. I would definitely come back. 5 glowing stars 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟🙌❣️☀️“

“Have not eaten at a Meltwich since pre-pandemic when it was located in Wpg Square. Did not disappoint tonight. Husband had the Southern Fried Chicken Melt it was to die for. Saucy and with a little kick. I had the Philly Cheese steak was quite good. But I like mine saucy would have been amazing with a horseradish mayo on it.
Fries were really crispy but not alot of flavor on their own. But still quite good. Probably quite delicious in their Poutines.
Sorry for the half eaten food pics, just tells you how much we were enjoying them.

Cautionary notice they come out piping hot. I would suggest a knife and fork for the Philly Cheese Steak as it comes piled high with stuff. But when its that hot you're either waiting for it to cool down or burning your fingers off as everything falls out with each bite. Knife and fork does the trick so you can savor it all together without risking a burnt lip or tongue 😉“

“A true gem in Winnipeg’s burger scene!

My boyfriend and I had the absolute pleasure of trying VJ’s Double Special—and let me tell you, it was nothing short of a heavenly experience! 🍔✨ The burger was an explosion of flavor in every bite, made with perfectly seasoned homemade patties that melted in our mouths. You can truly taste the love and tradition in each layer—it’s not just a burger, it’s a love letter to comfort food.

The aroma alone is enough to draw you in from blocks away. Juicy, meaty, rich, and grilled to perfection—every bite whispered “come back soon.” The service was quick, the vibe nostalgic, and the quality unmatched.

In a city full of burger joints, VJ’s Drive Inn stands tall like a legend—a place where cravings are fulfilled, and taste buds sing. We’re already planning our next visit. This is a place that reminds you why burgers became a classic in the first place. ❤️🔥

Highly, highly recommended!“

“A Winnipeg treasure and also wonderful venue for local artists to have their works seen.“

“Good place to eat but they need high chairs for kids.“

“Very good food, huge menu and friendly staff.“

“I really enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere. The specialty rolls are quite generous here. I couldn't finish 3 (can usually hammer back 4!). Very casual, unpretentious vibe. Prices are reasonable too! Will definitely be going back regularly!“

“Best breakfast in town, hands down. Prices are very reasonable for big portions. Always fresh food and great coffee. The patio is the place to. E in summer! Best part about this place? The Staff are wonderful and you'll leave feeling like one of the family. Go eat here!“

“Nuburger Kenaston: I was greeted by two very warm and friendly gentlemen. One of them gave me a low-down on the menu as I had never been there before. My burger (monster something rather) was huge and soooo delicious! The fries contained the perfect amount of salt and crispness…you know when the ends have just a little extra oil and it adds to the taste😋However, nothing surpassed my expectations more than the service. One of the gentlemen offered to help carry my order to the car and held doors open. 120/10!! 😉“

“I'm from Saskatoon. A couple years ago, I was going to a show at the Burt with a friend who took me here. It was all the right things, so I went back again on my own, the next time I was in town for a show.

It's always busy on show nights. I had a broken leg (still do!) and I didn't want to sit on a high stool. Despite the crowd, space was made for me at a regular table.

Service was fast and friendly. I didn't feel rushed to finish and make room for other patrons. The food was tasty and it was a large portion.

The bathrooms deserve a mention as they are very large, accessible, and clean.

It's a great spot for pub food downtown, whether you're on your way to a show or not.“

“Our Wedding Dinner with my wife and I was amazing and our server Gabby ❤️ was wonderful and provided awesome service! Thank you so much and we will definitely be back again!“

“I had 3 items tonight! The food is 10/10! 💯“

“Birthday lunch at Les Saj! It was my first time there. We shared the platter for 2 which could have easily fed 3 people but the good news is we both have leftovers! Everything was delicious! I am looking forward to eating the baklava later which l am sure will taste as good as it looks. The staff were friendly and accommodating. I will definitely be a returning customer to sample more of the menu.“

“The lady cashier is very kind. Generous amount of seafood and portion, I couldn’t believe it! Tartar sauce and fish was solid. Less than $15 snack. I am fully satisfied.

Caution if feeding children: small bones in chowder. For me, it was no issue. Fish has bones..lol and with the price and portion, I wouldn’t deduct points for that.“

“Visited for the first time and was very impressed. Our server was a delight, the wait for food wasn't long at all and all 4 of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. I had the chicken pot pie and it was divine. Friend had the fish and chips and gave it 2 thumbs up! The atmosphere is very laid back with a mix of traditional and modern. Pricier but the food and the vibes make it so worth it. The ONLY issue - I am a wheelchair user and it was extremely difficult getting in and out of the restaurant. Also the tables are definitely not designed to have a wheelchair under it. 9/10 will visit again!“

“great staff food as usual remember tip your servers covid really hurts their income“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Service at Original Joe’s – Winnipeg, MB

I had an absolutely fantastic experience at Original Joe’s here in Winnipeg tonight. I live just down the street, and it’s always great when a local spot delivers the kind of respectful, attentive service that makes you want to keep coming back.

I came in mainly to enjoy a few beers and unwind, and Brittany and Brooklyn completely understood the vibe I was going for. They were quick, friendly, and perfectly timed with their check-ins — exactly the kind of smooth rotational service that makes grabbing a few drinks relaxing instead of inconvenient.

Both of them made me feel welcome the entire time. Never rushed, never ignored — just genuinely great service from start to finish. And the complimentary beer they surprised me with was a classy, much-appreciated touch that really made my night.

Huge shoutout to Brittany and Brooklyn for going above and beyond. They deserve full credit for making this such a great experience.

This is exactly the kind of service that keeps me loyal to my neighbourhood spots. I’ll definitely be back. 🍻“

“Nice place, friendly staff, spendy? You bet lol. But that bread. Oh my that bread is like the bread I grew up with & seek out at European food stores. The sourdough rye is fantastic & the cheese pretzels?! Wow.
Thanks guys.“

“I don’t do this often. But every once in awhile you meet someone that just stands out. One where you wonder how you’ve gone this far in life without knowing this person. I found one of these people at the most unexpected place. My wife and I really enjoy authentic Ethiopian food. We enjoy good food, love meeting new people, love a great experience, and this place…. Has it ALL!!!! Merkato Restaurant!!!!! WOW!!! What a place. We’ve been going there as often as we can for about a year now. From the very first time Sam (the owner) treated us like he’s known us for years and made us feel right at home. He went above and beyond to make sure our experience was second to none. He succeeded. We’ve gotten to know this man quite well through our visits to his restaurant. The food is absolutely fantastic but his friendship is the highlight. The great food is just a bonus. I strongly recommend anyone to take the time and check this place out. Get to know Sam. He has a heart of gold and it’s an absolute blessing every single time. Keep it up Sam!!! We will see you again real soon.“
