50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Riverdale Park

“Sooo good! Don't sleep on these guys...very flavorful and fresh: made to order. Burgers are GREAT and my husband got the Fried Oyster Mushroom Burger with spicy/sweet sauce was very delicious 😋 Oh and the tater tots have a great spice blend on them and are hot and crunchy and full of potatoe flavor“

“Hands down the one of the best we’ve had! If you love meat, this place is definitely worth checking out. We got there on a Saturday morning and ran into a pretty decent line, but the staff were super friendly and it moved along quickly. Nothing beats meat that falls right off the bone and a steak that’s juicy and perfectly cooked.“

“The bulguogi steak sandwich is simply divine! Marinated steak, cheese, & kimchi on deliciously toasted bread. So good! More sweet than spicy.

I've also had the Bahn mi it was also good (bulguogi is still the best).“

“The best taco spot around.“

“we loved Burton's in Riverdale Park, MD! food was delicious and very accommodating to allergens. extensive gluten free menu including wings, fried calamari, pasta, crispy fish, crab cakes, and more. everything was delicious and our server was super nice as well. wish there was one of these in Union County, NJ! So amazing to know all their food is made from scratch 👍👍“

“I liked the location of this Mod’s Pizza in a nice walkable plaza. The restaurant itself had a beautiful classic western architectural style, the atmosphere, as well as the food was pleasant. I look to come back here again next time I’m in Maryland! 😊“

“Great place for good but fairly inexpensive Tapas. Family owned, nice crowd, good service, nice location. Can be a bit noisy.

I've brought people from workshops at work, and they enjoyed the experience, wanted to repeat it.“

“Nice place! Good service good food. Nice riverdale park location“

“I actually used Banana Blossom Bistro for catering a lunch event for about 40 people, and it was stellar. The service, the food, the presentation. Everyone at my event was talking about the food for hours afterwards. We got an assortment of banh mi and the cabbage salad. The pork banh mi was INCREDIBLE. Annie was kind and communicative throughout the whole process. I can't recommend them enough!“

“Great food and excellent service. John was fantastic. 100% recommend“

“The environment is great, the menu is very diverse, and seemingly commonplace dishes manage to be innovative in flavor“

“We celebrated my husband’s birthday at Mita and had an unforgettable experience. The staff was kind and welcoming, and the space felt deeply connected to both culture and the earth. It’s rare to find plant-based food that’s this healthy and delicious. Every dish was thoughtful and satisfying — perfect for a special date night. Can’t wait to come back!“

“We visited DC this weekend from NC. I went to DC Vegan with my non-vegan husband. Two days later he's still raving about the chick'n cutlet club. He said it was the best "chicken" sandwich he ever had and I can't convince him it was actually vegan 😆 Well done friends 👏👏 I had the artichoke bowl which was fantastic and the cheesecake is to die for! Wish we could have stayed in DC longer as I would have loved to try the other menu items.“

“Brunch is amazing. Bottomless margaritas and the churros are excellent!“

“The best vegan dining experience I’ve ever had, and “I’ve been around the block”. From the time I walked in the door and was greeted by the hostess, from the server, the sommelier, the food, ambiance- everything was perfect. The food was unique, and delicious. (even my non vegan friend loved it) however, the presentation and service is what put the cherry on top. Just a one of a kind dining experience that will be very hard to top.“

“Amazing! The sushi tasting menu was exceptional and filling! Delicious and whimsical cocktails. Bar in the back, very hip and chic workout being pretentious. Wagyu beef skewers from the bar was one of the best things I’ve ever had. All the skewers were amazing and the fried chicken and other bar snacks are classic bar foods, but way elevated- can not wait for the rest of the space to open!“

“Great waiter- delicious food, unique and cooked perfect! Music and vibes were very very fun!!!“

“It’s tough to find a vegan restaurant that really elevates vegetables instead of just giving you reheated Gardein items but Planta does it. The ambience is very sleek and modern (great for a date night) the bar is well-stocked and there are a ton of different vegetable-centered food options that are done really well. My wife also has a gluten allergy and they went through the menu with her to discuss what options were safest for her. We’ll be back for sure.“

“All of my experiences at L’Ardente have been phenomenal. The food, the atmosphere, and the service are all top notch!!!“

“BRING BACK THE CEVICHE DE PULPO PLEASE!!!!“

“🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚 🥚“

“As an Iranian-American, I can happily say that Rumi’s gets it ALL correct. I’ve had almost everything on the menu and it’s the best. And the staff are ALL amazing!!! I will always be loyal to this place!“

“Amazing dishes. Chive cakes, marigold, Laos wine, the butterfly and hummingbird were delicious. The presentation on the pla tong ma was almost as good as the flavor. Aim helped us choose our dishes and provided excellent service.“

“We had an early dinner before attending a performance at the Ford’s Theater. We made reservations through Open Table and were immediately seated upon arrival. The service was great. Our server recommended several dishes that we loved. There were abundant vegan and vegetarian options. Chilorio de Res tacos were mouthwatering as were the Hongos en Milto ones. In fact, every dish we ordered was delicious. One dish (chilaquiles) never arrived from the kitchen but we were pressed for time so we opted to have it taken off our bill instead of waiting for them to prepare it separately. Dessert, Cafe de Olla, was phenomenal. Pics are only some of the items we tried. Great atmosphere for date night and a milestone birthday celebration. Highly recommend.“

“Fun night for two out of towners! Food was amazing and the staff were incredibly friendly, even though we’re two or three times their ages and not cool at all! ;)“

“A thoughtful shared plates experience. We followed the wise recommendations of our server and were rewarded. Nice spot. Excellent yet not pretentious.“

“Honestly thee best raw vegan food I have ever tasted . My favorite right now is the Live burger entree with arugula salad and plantains. For dessert I love their doughnuts OMG so delicious . Anything you try is mouthwatering and absolutely amazing. You can taste the love they put into the food . I travel and hour from Baltimore to Cane &Coconut . I give them 10 stars .Wonderful music and good energy. They are knowledgeable about the nutrients amd benefits of all dishes. I love y’all ❤️“

“La comida deliciosa, pero los empleados no están bien adiestrados para el servicio al cliente The food is delicious, but the employees are not well trained in customer service.“

“Great food great service!“

“Finding a Filipino restaurant isn’t easy. So learning about Purple Patch thru Jo Koy—has ended this search! Literally, Filipino cuisine heaven! The restaurant is uniquely decorated, the staff were friendly, & the food hit that major comfort button for us! Thank you Zahara for being so sweet & a wonderful waitress. We can’t wait to come back for more!“

“Agora DC made my husband’s surprise birthday dinner party one to remember! From the superior customer service and professionalism of their special events management team, including Tsednia Abay, to the Michelin Star-worthy food and service, no detail was left untouched. Thank you to your entire team!😍“

“Must have the Mochi fantastic“

“Jab We Met Indian Kitchen was an awesome surprise — the food was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully presented. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared, with bold spices and great balance.

We stopped in during happy hour and loved the cocktails — creative, well-made, and a great value. The service was warm and attentive without being rushed, and the atmosphere felt relaxed enough to enjoy a long meal.

Whether you’re craving classic Indian dishes or just want a great spot for drinks and bites with friends, Jab We Met delivers. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Best Ramen I've ever eaten“

“I never write reviews but our anniversary dinner yesterday was amazing. The food was outstanding and the service was impeccable. The pre-fixe menu is worth it, especially for a first time diner. We're planning our next reservation already.“

“I was so sad when Planta Queen Ft Lauderdale closed down. Imagine my glee when I found a Planta Queen around the corner from my hotel in Washington D.C.!!! Just as I remembered, amazing sushi and menu of course, gorgeous decor, chic ambience and welcoming staff. They even had a kids menu and a “happy hour” drinks and sushi menu! Lots of GF options which I appreciate! I will obviously be dining there every night I’m here lol“

“An amazing dining experience!“

“Such a fun experience during our trip to DC. All the items we choose were outstanding and different . It was the highlight of our rainy day .“

“Absolutely incredible food. Our Lyft driver recommended we try it, now I'm sad we live 4 hours away from some of the best pizza I've ever had.“

“While my lamb, veggies, and lentils were just ok, the service was so outstanding it absolutely made up for it. The owner is phenomenal and really goes the extra mile to make sure your experience is top notch. Also had the best hot tea (I gotta figure out this spice mix) and honey wine of my life. Samosas were fire!“

“A DC classic—delicious food, excellent service, and full of historic charm. Definitely book ahead and sit in the bar or main dining room for the best vibe.“

“Went to Kitchen +Kocktails for the first time last night. The decor was very nice, and the music was good and not obnoxious. Our server Ally was terrific! I’m not a drinker, so when I asked her if there were any cocktails that didn’t taste like alcohol, I thought she would look at me like I was crazy, but she didn’t! She seemed to know exactly what I was talking about and immediately had a couple of suggestions. I went with the mixed berry lemon drop and it was perfect for me. The crab cake appetizers and shrimp and grits with lobster tail entree were amazing. We had a great time and we’ll be back!“

“Everything was perfect! I would recommend this place“

“Lamb chops steak is delicious! The fried potatoes were delicious! Brusselsprouts with fruit jam sweet and appetizing! His family's Pitabread can continue indefinitely“

“This was my first time dining at Milk & Honey. If I lived in the area, I would be there weekly. Or...maybe get a job there. Dee was amazing!!! Seriously, ask for her when you go. She offered suggestions about the menu, checked on me regularly, and made me feel like a guest and not a customer. Next time I'm back in DC, I will be dining there again.“

“Every time I’ve been to Albi, we have reserved the Chef’s Table—and it’s absolutely worth every penny. The team goes above and beyond to accommodate dietary restrictions, making sure every guest has the best possible experience. The food is consistently amazing, thoughtfully prepared, and presented beautifully. By the end of the meal, I was so full and completely satisfied. Truly a special dining experience that I’d recommend to anyone looking for something unique and memorable.“
