50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Falmouth

“I ordered my so son’s first birthday smash cake here and couldn’t be happier with it! I asked if they could make it a golf ball and he said they would try, but weren’t sure they could do that (he said they’d make it golf theme if the ball wasn’t feasible and I was perfectly fine with that). They were able to make the golf ball and it came out better than I was hoping for! I was also blown away by how reasonable the cost was. Definitely recommend them for custom cakes!“

“Rivalries has always been one of my favorite spots, especially in the summertime. Whether I’m hanging out on the deck, stopping by for lunch, or watching a Boston sports game with friends, it’s always a great time. The food may be classic pub style, but it’s pub style on steroids—I’ve never had a bad meal here.

Lance, the owner, is often around and genuinely takes time to check in on guests, which is a great touch. But the real star of the staff is Jen, the head manager. She’s absolutely phenomenal to work with, especially when it comes to planning a function. Whether it’s a small family gathering or a larger group event, Jen’s professionalism, experience, and friendly approach make the whole process easy—and even fun.

They truly do a great job all around, and I always look forward to coming back.“

“Great service and excellent food! My favorite weekend breakfast spot.“

“My oh my… can you say taste bud explosion! Have been exclusively patronizing George's Foreside House of Pizza for ten years now. And no plans to stop :)
Tried ‘em all, but when you find the best… well, you know the rest of the story.“

“Just a lunch spot while working in town, so we ate at the bar multiple times. Ryan and Jesse are just phenomenal - incredible service, like above and beyond. Even the homemade dressings were delicious, after 10 or so lunches, can't recommend this place enough.“

“My wife and I went to the Dockside Grill to celebrate our wedding anniversary. I had a swordfish dinner that was on the specials while my wife had a salmon dish. Both were very good!!! We finished our meal by sharing a heated blueberry crisp a la mode. Our server was very pleasant and kept our glasses of water filled and was timely on our drinks. The setting, not surprisingly, was tremendous as we had a beautiful summer evening to look out on the boats on their moorings. All in all, I highly recommend the Dockside as a great place for a nice meal.“

“The salmon bento was the best.“

“We had such a delicious meal at Scales! Everything was presented beautifully and tasted excellent. Service was on-point and the atmosphere is super chic. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone in the Portland area!“

“Impossibly wonderful food and vibe! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Another amazing meal!! We had the kimchi seaweed salad, bluefin tuna crudo, Spanish mackerel, Maine peekytoe crab, fried cauliflower and suckling pig. Everything was so good and it was hard to pick a favorite. I'd have to go with the fried cauliflower. It had such a wonderful spicy and sweet sauce and was cleverly complimented by crunchy fried chickpeas, mint and julienned apple. When you got a bite of everything, the dish practically sang to you. Angie's favorite was the suckling pig. This dish consisted of pork confit which had then been layered into a mold and then topped with crispy pork skin. Then delicately fried again on the flat top grill. It was served with a brown butter apple puree and marcona almonds. It had all the amazing flavors you expect from a great pork roast. No dessert for either of us.“

“The best breakfast I have ever had, and I own a breakfast restaurant 😂 Super friendly staff, well worth the wait ! If you don't try the hollandaise I will question all your life decisions. Blueberry Fleur Mimosa ... 12/10! Try this spot if you're in the area, we will travel back 3 hours just for brunch !“

“Oysters ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lobster roll, service and drinks all a must try. Can not wait to return to Maine to revisit.“

“We totally enjoyed our first visit to Luke’s. There were 4 of us. The service was quick, the food was delicious, the vibe was somewhat key west and the staff were so great!! Definitely returning. Thank you“

“The chipotle lobster roll was great no spicy at all but a lot off lobster. Long line but they moved quickly. Will definitely come back“

“I dream of their roti and curry dipping sauce, and no visit is complete without the ginger tofu noodles.“

“I’ll start by saying we were a walk-in and waited outside in the rain. A little doubt crossed our minds. Luckily, it was quickly proven to be a phantom. Would give 10/10 stars if I could. Absolutely excellent experience. The food was delicious, interesting, and classic somehow all at once (and I’m a snob). We had the lamb special and it was otherworldly. The cocktails were incredible. The service was attentive but not too much so (shoutout Grayson). Loved it and will definitely be back if we come back to Portland. Would wait outside in the rain for 30 + minutes in a heartbeat for those mussels and Grayson again.“

“Delightfully intimate restaurant with friendly and knowledgeable servers. We sat at the bar and enjoyed watching the amazing bartender and oyster shucker working hard to get everything out. Highlights were the baby gem salad, grilled octopus and linguine with clams.“

“Went for Oyster Social/Happy Hour they do on Wednesdays after a local recommended I try…had a little bit of everything and some punch. I’m not easy to impress. It was DIVINE!!! Delicious fresh seafood, excellent quality, great drinks, just a very nice experience I wish I were local to attend every week! Highly recommend!“

“Service, food, beer .. all five stars. A must visit if you’re in Maine!“

“My girlfriend and I had a wonderful dinner on 2-15. We sat at the end of the sushi bar- it was a little tight when it got busy, but it’s definitely the best sushi place we’ve been to. Our server Chad was awesome and made us feel very welcome. I told a few friends and decided to write a review“

“I don’t normally leave reviews, but I feel like Bayside warrants one. I had a very positive experience from the moment I arrived until I left. The staff were all very friendly and easy to talk to, their service was exceptional, and the food was very good. I absolutely recommend eating here and will be coming back the next time I’m in the area.“

“All I can say is amen hallelujah! I had an incredible eisbock and the pierogi. Perfect pairing, smooth pour, great place. 100% recommend!“

“just amazing in every way“

“Our favorite place to eat. everything is perfectly cooked and the Staff are amazing. never disappoints.“

“Love this place and the bar tenders are great!!“

“One of the best dining experiences in Portland highly recommend“

“Absolutely exceptional experience for any foodie out there. Started off with the cherry sour cocktail which was spectacularly balanced - dry, sour, with the right amount of zing. The tuna crudo and scallop were truly stand out from the raw bar, the cabbage salad was flavorful with not too much dressing. For mains, the halibut and the smash burger were absolutely to die for. The halibut and a Marsala wine sauce and was perfectly crisped. The burger is cheese and delectable with triple fried fries, but also portioned such that it wasn’t overwhelming. This is NYC level food delivered in an incredible Portland vibe - everyone is friendly, welcoming, the restaurant itself is romantic and intimate. Would choose this dinner 1,000 times over.“

“We had dinner last night and it was excellent!!! Service was wonderful, drinks were perfect and the food was amazing. Highly recommend!“

“We brought our soccer team over for a team kick-off party and couldn't have picked a better spot. The staff was so friendly and excited to see us, the food/drinks were delicious, and all our families said it was the perfect spot to gather. We'll definitely be back!“

“Amazing food, drinks and service, a true gem!!“

“My husband and I had lunch here before an appointment nearby. This restaurant had delicious food. My husband ordered the Down east Ruben, which was made with deep fried haddock with Cole slaw piled high on the bun with melted cheese. He said it was delicious! I opted for the classic BLT. Again, the sandwich was delicious. The lettuce and tomatoes were fresh and ample bacon was piled on top. I watched a young man bus the tables. He was extremely thorough cleaning the tables and seating. He even washed the items on the table (salt & pepper shakers, ketchup and hot sauce bottles). This young man then set the tables for new customers. Being a bit of a clean freak, I appreciated this young man's work. We will definitely be returning to this restaurant.“

“This place is amazing. Very LGBTQ friendly, and wonderfully nice management.“

“I stopped in Blazes today, had been craving a burger, and they didn’t disappoint! The cowboy burger was delicious, burger cooked just right, the onions and peppers perfectly caramelized, the sauce, bacon, and cheese, exactly the fat you want in a good burger. The bun was perfect and gave the perfect bread to burger/toppings ratio. And the side of onion rings was great, good portion, nice and crispy, not burnt and not soggy. Highly recommend!“

“Some of the best beer in Southern Maine, always a ton on tap“

“This place is awesome. We got the Puerco, which is bbq pork & plantain, & dulce empenadas, which is cream cheese & guava 🤩, a side of plantain, & a fresh strawberry limeade, all were amazing, the booth seats are super comfortable, nice atmosphere. 🩷 a portland treasure“

“Absolutely amazing flavors! Great staff. Had a vegetarian sampler plate (had all our favorites) and a lamb gyro pizza (never had one before...never heard of one).....a new favorite! Skip the seafood and try the Olive Cafe!“

“They have bhindi and aloo gobi and other items that not all Indian places have“

“We LOVE an evening out at Tuscan Table, South Portland location in fact we go every week! Our preferred place to sit is at the bar where we know we will always get excellent service from our favorite server Sammy. Sammy always greets us with a friendly smile and remembers what we like to drink, she also remembers how we like each dish that is ordered prepared even if we forget to ask, she knows. Sammy makes eating at the Tuscan a wonderful welcoming experience every time. Thank you Sammy and see you next week! Nancy & Eddie“

“I have been going here since I was very young. Maria has always been the hardest dedicated worker I've ever met. She always made the pizza perfect. Always recommended. I watched Maria's kids grow up into young adults and work there as well. Be in soon Maria“

“From the food to the staff, it couldn't have been better. The moment you walk through the door you know this is a REAL BBQ joint. Smoked meats with tons of natural flavor, great portion sizes, really tasty sides. The owner loves what he does and it shows.“

“The food at this cafe is very good and the prices are low, so you are welcome to try some.“
