50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Minneapolis

“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.“

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

“All I can say is wow. It's not often that a restaurant totally exceeds my expectations. But it did. Food was amazing. The Korean BBQ pizza was so good and the cheesy rice cakes were amazing. Service was outstanding. I highly recommend.“

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

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

“MY FAVORITE CHINESE PLACE! THE VEGETABLE LO MEIN IS FANTASTIC WITH BABY BOK CHOY, ASPARAGUS, CARROTS, BROCCOLI, ETC.! AND THE SESAME BALLS ARE SO YUMMY!!! I GET THIS EVERY SUNDAY! They do not have a side of white rice so I make my own at home…but giving it a solid 4 out of 5 stars for that reason - always have rice on hand!“

“Went here on the 4th of July for dinner,one word...AMAZING!!!“

“Vegan fried chicken, little wait.“

“The food was spectacular, fairly cheap, it came out quickly, and the service was no nonsense. Would definitely recommend!

Vegetarian options: Large well labeled vegan selection as well!

Dietary restrictions: Great vegan options that are well labeled“

“Strawberry coconut dream is quite sweet definitely a good balance of coconut and strawberry flavors (heavily). Tacos are on the larger quantity side. Sesame Chicken taco is crispy, tangy, with a good kick of spice. Al pastor taco is good, tangy with the bit of pineapple. Carnitas taco is very savory and juicy. The corn tortillas are nice and soft. Definitely have the sesame last because it overwhelms the other flavors. The sweet corn cake is super soft, a very light cornbread flavor. Elote is good, simple and yummy.“

“Great restaurant! Booked it in as a last minute birthday celebration. Had the avocado toast & added poached eggs on top. Loved the tent seating as I felt warm especially with Minnesota weather. Also ordered myself an iced latte, which was great. My sister had the seasonal French toast & loved them! Definitely recommend this as a quick, affordable brunch spot.“

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

“You HAVE to try every FLAVOR!!!!“

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

“I am sure many reviews begin this way, but it’s true here: I rarely write reviews. We visited the Rochester location on 5/18, and we were immediately pleasantly greeted. The entire menu looks so tasty, so I ended up ordering a Wedge Salad, the Five Cheese Macaroni & Cheese to split, and a 60/40 with Truffle Fries. I LOVE Wedge salads, but this one, this one was special - the most delicious wedge salad I’ve ever eaten. The addition of the dill was unexpected but soooo welcome. The macaroni portion, even as split, was so generous and very tasty. The truffle fries were very flavorful, and the burger - I am ashamed to say I can’t attest to it because my eyes were much larger than my stomach & I had to take it to go. The rest of the crew with me all agreed their food was also delicious. If we ever have the fortune to travel back to the area, we agreed we would all come back to Red Cow. Our service was also top notch, I wish I could remember our server’s name. She was very sweet!“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“Friendly service in a fun atmosphere. The food arrives incredibly fast. The flavors are fresh and vibrant. Highly recommend the Brussels Sprouts and the Cubano Arepa“

“I was watching the show Taste Buds and they were at Laune Bread. Everything looked amazing and I had to check it out! Lots of variety and delicious! Will definitely be going back!“

“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.“

“This place has been in my list of places to try for some time now. Happened to find myself in the area, and decided to go and try it. Servers are amazing! They know their menu, and are glad to give any recommendations. They recommended their Tex-Mex Breakfast Burrito, and it was fantastic! I will definitely eat here again!“

“Amazing burgers and fries. Best in the Twin Cities. The Parmesan Truffle fries are my go to. This is the place I always bring my out of town friends and family. The service is always great, but expect a wait. They do not take reservations. Good things come to those who wait.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Emily's is a wonderful Lebanese restaurant! And it does have a deli area. It's been around for 50 years and it's been our family's favorite! We always go there for family get togethers and holidays. The food is fabulous!“

“Came upon this charming little bakery after walking around Lake Bde Maka Ska during a recent visit to Minneapolis and so glad we did.

We almost missed it, as it's in a nondescript office building and from the outside looks like a dentist's office. But once you step inside, it's warm and charming and full of friendly people and excellent baked goods.

I'm a particular fan of Kouign-amann, and wherever I find it, I have to try it. Black Walnut's is lovely - flaky and sweet and buttery without being greasy. They have a classic and a Raspberry Passion Fruit which is definitely worth the extra calories. I also had a Croque Monsieur, so I can say their bread is also lovely. The coffee and service were both good and the pastry case left us wishing we'd be in Minneapolis longer. Looking forward to trying the excellent looking Pan de Suisse next time.“

“The fact that they Fed the homeless means everything! In a world where everyone is out for themselves, this means so much them helping people God bless them“

“Always a unique selection, friendly service and great tasting ice cream! I need to make up excuses to treat myself. :) The apple crisp and oatmeal raison cookie flavors are 👌“

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

“This place is an absolute gem! The food was fantastic, with great vegetarian options. But the real standout was the service—welcoming, warm, and full of genuine smiles. Cadence, the lovely server with a radiant smile truly made the cold winter feel like summer. A beautiful soul and beautiful service—I’ll definitely be back!“

“The food was incredible and our server Emily was amazing! Do not skip the guac!“

“Cool place and fabulous farmers market margarita!!“

“The food was excellent! Probably one of the best! and the service provided by Brian and Riley were over the top superb. It was obvious that they loved working there and took such pride in doing it. So refreshing!!!“

“Great tacos!! Delicioso! Will be back!!!“

“Wonderful atmosphere, staff, music & cuisine! Highly recommended for a night out.“

“I, quite literally, had the best meal of my life here! We shared the samosas, grilled scallops, grilled salmon, butter chicken, and a ginger chaitini. The flavor in these dishes was something I have never experienced at any other restaurant. They genuinely have a menu that caters to everyone’s likes and tastes. The service was wonderful and the owner was incredibly kind and eager to share his passion with us. I will 100000% be coming back and I highly recommend you go as well!“

“Food, atmosphere, and drinks were all fantastic. The Owner/Chef Joel has created something special at this gem nestled in a Minneapolis neighborhood. We had a large party for a friends pre-wedding dinner and the staff handled it great. From the apps to the desert, you can’t go wrong with anything you pick off the menu. We were all tasting each others food by the end of the night wanting to try EVERYTHING! Some have stated a smaller menu and prices, but then say the food blew them away…I for one like to pay to keep amazing food and ingredients an option. Can’t wait to bring my wife and other family members in the Twin Cities to do it again.“

“Locally owned Columbian cafe. The owner Luis is always around for quality control. Coffee is rich and tasty. Breakfast Americano is fabulous. Arepas y marmelada has delicious fruit compote �“

“Great sandwiches with great environment. Would be nice if they were open until midnight 😉 Anyways my place to eat, they have a great variety of sandwiches.“

“I come only for the shakshuka and I come there often so it tastes amazing to me! Only downside is they give you 2 little pieces of bread and charge you for extra bread. Maybe give 4 slices to begin with idk just a suggestion. Their gazoz drink n the spiced vanilla latte are so good!“

“Excellent food! Great wine!♥️“

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

“Very good Iced cream the best of Minnesota“

“Wow! That brunch buffet was fantastic! I'm from Texas and this was pretty close to the Mexican food I'm used to. Definitely going again and I'm bringing friends!“
