50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Temple Hills

“I have been here several times and each time have been happy with the food. Tried many different items on the menu and they all were tasty. My main reason for writing this review isn’t for the food though, it’s about my last experience at the restaurant. I stopped there with my daughter this past weekend. It was literally 100 degrees that day and after we ordered a man walked through the door about to pass out from heat exhaustion. He was clearly down on his luck. The lady who worked their acknowledged the gentlemen when he walked in and ask was he ok. He responded yes he was ok but wanted to get out of the heat for a few minutes and was it ok if sat down for a few minutes. She responded yes and gave him ice water. She then asked if he was hungry and the man said yes but he didn’t have any money right now. She told him that she would buy him a pizza and not to worry about paying her back. As I sat and ate while watching their interaction, it filled my heart with joy watching the compassion being shown to a complete stranger. I will for ever be a fan of this place as long as that lady is still working there!“

“This place is THE BEST. I love coming here, the staff is so friendly, the food is delicious and I just love the smoothies. They're so refreshing and not that expensive. I was able to sit in a comfortable area surrounded by good vibes and hard workers. I got a Flatbread and sunrise sunset smoothie.“

“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!“

“I think Old Ebbitt Grill are one of the best grill joints around Washington and they got the most warmed atmosphere and I also enjoyed their service a lot. Their waitress and waiters are well trained with great sense of humor and they always smile to their customers/buyers.. You all can give it a try and thank me later hehe 😜“

“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.“

“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 .“

“Amazing! The staff was welcoming from the moment you walk in the door!! And the..Food was globally inspired with a twist, and beautifully displayed. Truly felt like a gift to stumble upon this establishment!!“

“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!😍“

“Delicious, delectable, outstanding. Service topnotch!“

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

“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!“

“Always a DC favorite for hosting and client dinners — your team consistently creates a great experience.“

“I stopped in with friends before a event Sunday evening. The staff was warm and welcoming. I had the lentil sambusas and a peanut-infused coffee at the staff’s recommendation. The food was fast and delicious- the sambusas were warm and spicy, and the peanut coffee was delicious! In a kind gesture, the chef sent over a sampling of sushi to our table. Fresh and refreshing, the sushi was a nice complement to my sambusas and hot beverage. I’m not on this side of town often, but now I have a reason to come back.“

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

“wonderful small family owned Thai restaurant in Washington DC. the food is excellent and the service is great.“

“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.“

“This place is absolutely magnificent! From the service and appetizers to the main course, everything was exceptional. The kebsa, lamb kabobs, and shishbarak were phenomenal. Great food, amazing vibes, and an overall wonderful experience. Definitely recommend!“

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

“Must have the Mochi fantastic“

“The food is exceptional but the ambiance is lacking. When you're paying almost 200 dollars per person at minimum, the table shouldn't have scratches and there should be some dedicated 4 seat table, rather than two small tables pushed together unevenly.“

“We visit whenever we’re in DC for work. The food is always terrific. Paul from Austria was our server last weekend… he had such joy and positive energy ☀️ We’ll be back soon!“

“I love this place! The food is phenomenal! I can’t get over the tempeh burger!!!“

“This resturaunt was amazing! The service was absolutely the best, the food was sooooo delicious and flavorful and the ambiance was great. Definitely will be going there again.“

“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!“

“An amazing dining experience!“

“Ottimo , ci siamo sentiti a casa“

“Best sushi restaurant me and my family have ever been to. Our server, Jay made our experience even better with his service that went above expectations. They also gave complimentary matcha ice cream for our birthdays that was insanely good.“

“Nice wine pair with mussels. Reasonable pricing.“

“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.“

“AMAZING food, service, and prices! The mushroom dulet , fish gulash, and honey wine highlights! Because of how well priced it is, I was worried about the proportions, but I was pleasantly surprised about the amount of food that came with each meal! We were two people two ordered two dishes and had plenty of leftovers. Everything was so flavorful, the perfect amount of spiced, and the injera was so soft. This is the best restaurant I’ve been to in a while, despite it being quiet and unassuming it is absolutely phenomenal food.“

“Did the cocktail mixing class. Great food and awesome experience!“

“The food tastes as great as it is creative. We got the Filipino fried chicken, Greek chicken wings, Belgian fries, charred Brussel sprouts, and shrimp ceviche. All portions more than met the price point, and the flavors were amazing. Complex but finely woven in a way that didn't interfere with enjoying the other foods ordered. The vibe is fun yet relaxing and the service was timely and professional.“

“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.“

“Great evening at Anju with work colleagues. The food was exceptional , full of flavor and beautifully done. As chefs ourselves, we were all impressed. Service was warm and smooth throughout. Thanks to Chef for coming by and explaining his dishes ., A great personal touch. Highly recommend.“

“5 stars isn't enough!! From the moment we walked in until the end of our night we were satisfied. The decorations, food, and service was amazing! They even offered me a quiet place to pray :). Give this place a try-trust me (portions may seem small, but it was very filling- we ordered the bowl of fries, which came with a delicious sauce, CROQUETTES, fish burger, beef burger, and gnocchi pomodoro. It felt like we were in nyc enjoy :)“

“Nice atmosphere . Troy was a great host/server.“

“We went to I egg you this past Sunday and the food was AMAZING 🤩 then got proposed to right after eating.. best experience 💜“

“One of the best places in Dc and right on the water!“

“This is where it’s at pregame DC defenders“

“Our Uber driver recommended St. Anselm, after the restaurant we planned on was closed. What a happy misfortune! From the quick phone call, answered by Lily, who cheerily said she could accommodate our party, to our amazing waiter Joe, the delicious food, wonderful atmosphere; this place is a DO NOT miss! I’m sad we live in FL and can’t be regulars!! St. Anselm, whatever you are doing, keep it up!!!“

“Delicious fresh food, beautiful presentation. Wonderful attentive staff, highly recommend. We will definitely return to enjoy an evening with music of Friday, Saturday or Sunday. Thank you very much.“

“During our trip to Washington, D.C., we had a lovely meal at Jab We Met. The proprietor was so kind and welcoming, making us feel right at home the moment we walked in. The food was excellent, with delicious Aloo Gobi and comforting Saag Paneer that hit just the right spot. The mango lassi was delightfully smooth and sweet, and the iced tea was light and refreshing. It was an enjoyable dining stop on our travels!“
