50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Golden Valley

“Easy to order, easy to get food, easy to get your beverage. First time. Just ordered from the bartender. Probably keeping costs low. But that’s fine. Food and drinks were fine. Typical brat or wurst, onion rings were tasty. I would go back for trivia or initials night. :)“

“The food was great but our server, Aurora, was the highlight of the night. Excellent service and made the visit a wonderful a time.

We had the Pad Thai, Yellow Curry, and Lechon.

The lechon (small plate/appetizer) was smaller in portion than I would have expected for the price, but was still good.

The portions for the main dishes were generous and the food was flavorful.

I would definitely go back“

“I can't thank you enough Dr MOMOH for keeping me in good health. Your expertise and compassion have made a significant impact“

“Visited the Golden Valley, MN location after a busy day. We didn’t realized they closed at 8:30 pm. There was a staff that was taking out the trash. Even though he said they were closed he still went above and beyond and served us. We were so grateful and appreciative of this incredible kindness and customer service!“

“Stopped in for a bite of breakfast after visiting the Eloise Butler bird sanctuary. The food and the view was amazing. I wish I lived here so I could come back every weekend. I highly recommend the beet and spinach salad as well as the vanilla latte. I'm visiting from Houston, TX where we have great food so I have high expectations.“

“This place is not inexpensive; but the food is worth every single penny. It’s unique, it’s vegan, it’s delicious, and it’s healthy. The atmosphere is very comfortable. (although the music was a little bit loud for conversation). I shared the cauliflower tacos and hummus plate and we each had a glass of wine and took the yummy yummy yummy yummy yummy cheesecake home (the cheesecake seemed expensive at the time; but I will purchase it again and again. Every taste was Yum Yum Yum Yum.). a lot of times when I go out to eat I think; I could’ve saved money and just ate at home. However, I truly felt my money was well spent! The food was fresh. Very tasty. The arugula salad was phenomenal, even though it was very simple. I need to come back here way more often. Thank you very much for your dedication to healthy, tasty, vegan food. Also, their dedication to quality continues year after year. I think that’s wonderful.“

“Delicious vegan food served here! My wife and I had lunch on 8/6/25. We both had the Mac and Cheese with Collards. This is vegan food prepared VERY WELL, by an owner who is passionate about what he presents to the public. I highly recommend Trio and encourage anyone to go as soon as possible!“

“Best pasta in the Twin Cities?????? Cavatelli with Rabbit Sugo was marvelous. We swapped and tried each others and I was equally floored by all of them. Wonderful service. Our server was friendly and helpful. Delicious drinks and cheesecake for dessert (ate immediately, not pictured). Absolutely will come back- hopefully soon!“

“My friend and I had an incredible time at Owamni. My compliments to the chef. Truly one of a kind experience. The food was outstanding from start to finish ( presentation, flavor profile, texture, all natural and full of character). There’s not a place that’s more unique than Owamni in Minnesota, in my opinion . I highly recommend this establishment, and I wish you prosperity and success.“

“My husband and I had a splendid lunch date at the Himalayan Restaurant. The seating outdoors is so beautiful and is decorated with many flowers. The atmosphere inside for lunch was quite peaceful, which is my ideal type of restaurant.
We ordered dumplings as an appetizer. My husband enjoyed the extra spicy sauce. I liked the sauce with tomatoes and spices.
The main courses are made to the spice level you prefer. The chicken tikka masala and the mixed curry were absolutely delicious. The naan was seasoned well with garlic and herbs. The white and brown rice were fluffy and cooked perfectly as well.
We are hoping to eat here again soon. Highly recommend!
Thank you!“

“We held our company Christmas Party at their beautiful restaurant and had such a great time! The staff were so attentive and wonderful to interact with throughout the whole evening! We ordered an array of food and our employees couldn’t stop talking about how fantastic the prime rib and KFC (Korean fried cauliflower) were! The talk around the shop about this event and the delicious food went on for days! We all had such a great experience from start to finish. They made it so easy to plan, set up, host and tear down. We would highly recommend anyone looking to host a party to come here! Now if you are just looking for a bite to eat for a date night or family night out, they also have you covered. No matter what plans you have this is the spot to be! A huge thanks to Lake and Irving for all they did for us and a massive thank you to Chris the chef! That meal was better than we could have ever expected!“

“Amazing food and amazing hospitality. Staff is really polite and sweet.“

“a must for any vegan visiting Minneapolis. if I lived out there I would have breakfast at Hark everyday!“

“I agree with previous poster. I will be dreaming of Francis now. Door was FABULOUS! Atmosphere is quaint. Francis is my new favorite“

“My husband and I chose to celebrate our one year anniversary here today. It was both of our first times dining at Broders’ and we enjoyed everything about this wonderful experience! Upon arriving we were attempting to take a selfie photo outside and one of the employees opened the front door and asked us if we would like him to take our photo. Tyson so kindly took several photo angles and opened up the door for us as we walked in. It truly felt like we were being welcomed into someone’s warm and inviting home. Our sweet waitress helped me select the most delectable glass of wine I have ever tasted. Words cannot explain how delicious the pasta was… we lapped up every single drop and were in absolute food heaven. To top it all off… we were treated to a free dessert of our choosing along with two chocolate cocoa truffles on the house!! After we finished our meal we went across the street to their storefront to purchase some pasta and sauce to enjoy at some point in the coming weeks. We will definitely be back for all special occasions and certainly for our two year anniversary. If you are looking for a once in a lifetime experience and meal this is the place!! Enjoy!“

“I have enjoyed every bite of every pint I’ve bought since the day it opened. I no long live in Minneapolis but still will make the 25min drive for a couple pints 😋“

“Soooo yummy. Especially love the cabbage roll in tomato cream sauce. Melt in your mouth comfort food! 🤤 This is a great local gem we are fortunate to have. ❤️“

“Ryan was the absolute best server that I have encountered in my life! I have an anaphylaxis food allergy. He was so on top of making sure that whatever I ordered wasn't going to be an issue. He checked with the head chef 3 different times about different entrees, so I could have the best experience. We are from out of town and will definitely be back due to the great service provided. Ryan, thank you so much for being so attentive in regards to my allergy. Tonight's experience made your restaurant, one I will always recommend.“

“The soup was exceptionally tasty. I would definitely return.“

“What a great place. Our waiter Ramesh walked us thru the menu pointing out his favorites and that you can order how spicy you want yours. My fav was the Chicken Tiki Masala! Be sure to order the Naan bread basket assortment. Fantastic food and the service was outstanding. Highly recommend this place.“

“Visited the St Louis Park location, having been a fan of the original Excelsior location. Had the happy hour Margarita’s, Tacos (carnitas, steak & potato), and a spicy chicken salad. All were good, along with chips & queso. A good addition to that area.“

“This place is amazing! They do not disappoint. We come here all the time before Vikings games! Chao!“

“Amazing food. We shared 4 plates. Each one better than we could have wished for. Possibly the best Paloma I’ve ever had. The manager Natalie took tremendous care of us. Fabulous experience.“

“First off, I would highly recommend this restaurant. The value is great. With that said, the wait staff was very pushy; if the chef left this place wouldn’t be worth a thing.“

“Food was awesome and the service was excellent I commend them for their sandwiches“

“No place like it. Have been going since I was 12. Best blueberry pancakes in the world“

“Super fried chicken sandwich. Great front of house service and great bartender. My wine also delicious. Easy to eat on your own here. Thanks!“

“wife and I drove 6 hours to eat here. we have made the trip multiple times over the years. came in Wednesday early afternoon and got great service. I wish I could remember her name, I would give her 5 stars. love coal fired pizza.“

“The venue is a little too “homie” for my tastes, but the food was amazing!“

“😍In love with this cozy neighborhood spot“

“Who doesn’t love flavorful fried chicken wings.. among other dishes. Accompanied by 90s early 2000 RnB! The service was fast and knowledgeable. Our server was kind and helpful choosing dishes we’d be into. Yum yum sauce 10/10 Wings 10/10 Definitely a fun spot. A great addition to Uptown.“

“Creative menu, delicious devour-able food, friendly staff, fun, laid back atmosphere. And totally gluten-free!“

“I’ve ate a TON of soft pretzels in my life and these were the absolute beat soft pretzels I’ve ever had. Can’t wait for try some more of their breads at the shop. 10/10 would recommend this place.“

“came to eat dinner with friends. it was a 10/10, it was a wonderful experience. the staff was friendly and the food was delicious.“

“Good variety of dishes, options for special dietary needs. Atmosphere is pleasant and clean.“

“Everything! Loved the drinks and creative, yummy menu!! So fun!❤️“

“I found this place online, while searching for a place that provided plenty of vegetarian options that my wife might enjoy.

I was not expecting to love the food as much as I did, as I'm still fairly new, somewhat hesitant to try plant-based/vegan foods. But the Pad Thai and the Fried Lemongrass Chili Tofu - I couldn't eat enough of both and the serving size was more than adequate for the both of us to share. The depth of flavor in the Pad Thai was excellent, as I feel many dishes elsewhere hide the food behind the sauces and this is not one of those.

The food was excellent but felt light and I wasn't feeling stuffed but extremely satisfied.

We can't wait to go back and try more dishes, as it was hard to narrow down to two entrees and two appetizers.

and then I spoke with the waiter when I went to pay the bill and he told me about it being a family-run restaurant and such... very cool! We will be back in the near future.

Thank you!“

“On a bike ride off the Minnehaha Parkway, we happened upon Heathers on a warm end-of-summer day. We walked in and ordered a nice beer on tap and relished in their fresh-cut romantic flowers in vases on their outdoor patio tabletops.

The dilly ranch, savory and tantalizing, made the Blackened Salmon Dilly Ranch Salad, a delicate and sumptuous salad of gem lettuce, crunchy radish, fresh avocado and cucumber, sunflower seeds, and pickled onions.

The saucy sumptuous teriyaki made the Teriyaki Salmon Bowl, a piquant mouthfeel, a delight of bright green edamame, brilliant pink pickle onions, avocado, rice and fresh broccoli. Delicious!“

“Went there today for the first time. Great food, chef kissed delicious! Great service, friendly atmosphere. Wish my youngests food came out at the same time as the other 4 of us (his came out 10 minutes later and he’s 2) but portions were so big we had enough of our food to share as he didn’t eat his when it finally came. Otherwise delicious and would definitely recommend“

“We recently ate here for the first time. Enjoyed it so much we came back. Food was delicious and wait staff was exceptional. Will definitely be back. Patio seating is great; unfortunately there was a small dog here the second time that was a barker!“

“🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥place & love the area I recommend everybody to get the experience“

“I was looking for breakfast at The Viking Fest. No luck. Saw your food truck and decided to try your pizza. I got the white sauce, spinach, garlic, red onion and tandeer? (vegetarian "meat) was it called? It was suggested by employee...I was not going to get any meat option. My son got an all meat choice. We both absolutely loved them!! They were delicious!!! And definitely filling!! Honestly, I probably should not have eaten whole thing lol.Thanks for doing it right!!!“

“first time here. the employees are very friendly. The food is outstanding! definitely give it a try!“

“Best ice cream available! Amazing experience for people with food allergies.“

“Wow!! First time here and it did not disappoint!! Delicious!!“

“My favorite pizza in the Cities. I usually stick with the Old Reliable because it's a fantastic classic, and their seasonal vegetable and/or the cauliflower. The budino is delightfully chocolatey, rich and not too sweet. Staff are friendly and efficient, and it's fun to sit at the bar to see the food get made. The patio is also very cute, especially at night.“

“Great homemade food. Friendly, well cooked dishes. Will be back“

“Myself and four friends were in Minneapolis for a few days on a visit from Ireland and had breakfast here a few times. Food was delicious. Great choice on the menu. Service was brilliant. Staff friendly and efficient.“

“the food and bakery items are all so delicious!!“
