50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Mendota Heights

“Yesterday night we were here. Food was very tasty and delicious.We'll visit again soon with our whole family!“

“The husband took our 4 year old and 7 year old to eat dinner there today without me. He ordered 1 kiddie bowl of pho and a 2nd kiddie bowl of broth and meatballs only. They charged him for 2 adult phos (16.00 each= 30 total) ontop of the regular entres he ordered (75.46 total). We've been dining there almost once a week for the past few months spending close to 100 each time. Very disappointed and show no value to loyal customers. Never returning.“

“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.“

“Over all best experience I have had. Thank you so much and I’ll be coming here more often. I am just starting my vegan journey and this place makes great food! The staff is super friendly too“

“Had some friends buy their faux meats and cheeses and they said they were beyond delicious! They highly recommended their products and the owners are vegan <3“

“This food was so DELICIOUS! The flavors were on point and the presentation absolutely beautiful. This was my first experience with Ethiopian food but it's definitely going to be my weekend treat. If you're looking for vegetarian food that speaks to your soul, fills your tummy, and makes you forget that you're normally a carnivore This is the place to go. We had the family plate that had all the main course dishes and honestly only one item that didn't work for me but I can definitely see where others would love it. I'm not going to name that dish, but please believe everything else on that platter plus the hummus made up for it. Please go and check them out you won't regret it!“

“The food and atmosphere was absolutely awesome. Everything we tried had so much flavor. You also get so much food for what you pay for, and it’s worth every penny. Will be showing it off to family and friends!“

“Phenomenal dining experience!!\nDifficult to choose from so many choices!! Quality is amazing, portions are generous, and scrumptious!!\nWe enjoyed the octopus, bruschetta with ricotta and tomatoes, mushroom confit, branzino and pasta with tuna. \nOur served, Sidney, was professional, kind, and very careful with our food allergies. She’s an incredible asset to your restaurant!!\nWho would have thought you could get such an incredible Italian meal in Minneapolis? This place is a must!!“

“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!“

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

“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.“

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

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

“UPDATED to say that this place is such a hidden gem and I need more people to know about it. This recent time, I had the Yangon beef curry and it was perfection. The stuffed tofu was great and the tea leaf salad was just as delightful as it was the previous time. I really like that they can omit the fish sauce in the tea leaf salad and stuffed tofu. Consistency matters and this place has it.
-----
Really enjoyed the tea leaf salad. Highly recommend! I wanted to try the boat noodles but they said they were out of it. We were there an hour after they opened on a Saturday and there were only 3 other parties there. I guess they don't have it consistently. The yellow curry was pretty good. I also enjoyed the pad thai. I like that they can make some things vegetarian/vegan. I'd come back.“

“We were here for dinner over the weekend and everything about this place was phenomenal we tried multiple things off of the to share or not portion of the menu and loved every bit of it. The whole grilled fish our waitress mentioned rotates depending on what is available fresh and it was cooked to Perfection and probably our favorite thing all weekend. The cocktail menu is unique and everything that we had the opportunity to try was delicious I highly recommend doing the cocktail flight to anybody who doesn't have a favorite spirit. Staff was incredibly friendly and knew what they were talking about if you had questions. To those looking at going here reservations are a must!!!! Great atmosphere as well“

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

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

“Great Italian food at very reasonable places. Highly recommended. I try to make a trip there every time I'm in the area.“

“My absolute favorite ice cream! We stop to get some every time we are in Minneapolis. We’ve enjoyed every flavor, but the lemon olive oil is so good that I dream about it! Definitely recommend!!!!“

“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. ❤️“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“They adhere to the snitches get stitches policy. ✨🔥✊🏼“

“Great neighborhood eatery for Italian cuisine! Service is attentive but not intrusive. Reasonable wait times and prices, with plentiful food and wine options. Slightly louder than preferred, but not really an issue. Parking is the only hurdle. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a great dining experience in St.Paul!“

“Super cute, great decor, lovely staff, 10/10 would go again“

“Classic diner comfort with a modern update on the menu. Lots of great cocktail and beer options, but not so many that it’s not kid friendly. Have been here twice now, and both times food and service has been excellent.“

“The best breakfast in the MN. Everything on the menu is delicious 🤤“

“When we made a reservation, it said they only had room on the heated patio. We actually got to eat inside though. The patio looked nice. There were TVs, festive decorations, and lots of people. I can't speak to how warm it was, but it looked like it had a firplace too. If we'd had a dog, that would've been amazing. Our server spoke quickly and did everything quickly. The portions were very large. We were so stuffed. We had the Thanksgiving meal and it has potatoes with gravy, corn, Turkey, green bean casserole, roll and butter, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie for $29. A big full plate of food. The restaurant was packed, but not ridiculously loud. They showed football inside as well. I only gave the food 4 stars because it wasn't amazing, but everything was solid and impressive. You could order from the regular menu as well. MSP Mag had a list of places to eat on Thanksgiving and they were the most affordable and the most generous with what they provided. We also got an even better deal because we bought discount gift cards at Costco and were part of the rewards program. Highly recommend!!“
