50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Oakdale

“Went to Pinz yesterday and met the new GM! Such a nice guy and so helpful! Will be back again soon!“

“My daughter and son in law visited Sunday, May 25th, 2025. Everything, with the exception of salad and Tour of Italy was awful. I had Create Pasta with Mushroom Sauce. Terrible watery, no flavor. Daughter had Zupa Toscan which was tasteless and watery. Her entree was Chicken Margarita flavorless with many green peppers on top. Such a disappointment for a reputed good eatery.“

“Awesome service, good food and overall a fun place. Large menu and also have a lot of Gluten Free items and are indicated on main menu. Will definitely go back! So many more dishes I want to try!“

“I've never had as good a aclzone anywhere as Sarpino's makes, at least the ones at the Oakdale, MN location. They are such a great blend of flavors and seasonings; the ingredients are always fresh and the crust is buttery and crispy, not overwhelmingly bready. The crust compliments rather than buries the abundant fillings. And they're ginormous - I get minimum of two meals out of one. And they're delivered hot and almost always within or sooner than the estimated delivery time (which is free- no need for Door Dash). Can't say enough good things about this Sarpinos! I never thought I liked calzones til I tried one of theirs.“

“This place is AMAZING. Authentic and delicious! I love that they have a good variety of salsas and protein. step over Chipotle!“

“Amazing Food and great service“

“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“

“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!“

“Awesome food was skeptic at first but it's really good I scored a groupon for this huge platter. Will come back for lunch soon!“

“Traveled to St. Paul from Maryland for a graduation, found this hidden gem. It was a great experience, the food was phenomenal. Make sure you check this place out. Food was great, service was pretty good as well. If it's your first time there, it's a little confusing trying to figure out how to maneuver through the cafeteria. The atmosphere is also a lot of fun make sure you check out the market. Mangia mangia“

“Amazing coffee & amazing people. Thank you for always creating a welcoming, safe place for all!“

“Everything!! Food and service is amazing. ❤️“

“Good chips and salsa at a reasonable price“

“Papas Bravas 😍 u must try them.“

“Some of the best Thai food in St. Paul, and very warm and friendly staff!“

“Ordered a full sheet of Ho ho cake at the Roseville location. From the online order to the pick up... absolute perfection. Everyone was so friendly and if they didn't know they found out the answer. I didn't have to worry if the cake was going to be exactly what I was hoping for. AND the taste... so many compliments. Definitely will be back for more cakes from here. Worth the hour and a half drive from home for it!!“

“Luv Ice Cream is a fantastic shop to visit. Their ice cream is delicious! The owners are very welcoming and knowledgeable. We could have talked for hours! There are so many choices for vegan and keto conscious patrons. If you want wonderful sugar free options this is your store!“

“HIGHLY recommend Dark Horse. Since the reopening, anytime we come downtown St. Paul we make an effort to stop in and try something new.

Burgers 👌🏼 Pizza 👌🏼 Wings 👌🏼 Fries 👌🏼“

“The staff went over and beyond for us on Wednesday night. We were having a viewing party for the finale of the show The Floor. They put the show on some of the tvs so we could watch. They were so kind and helpful the whole night. All of us at the party cannot say enough good things about this place. You are so amazing. We can’t thank you enough. We are all FLOORED at how kind you all are. ❤️❤️❤️“

“Excellent place for sushi. Great atmosphere as well.“

“I’ve eaten here three times. First place I’ve tried since moving to St. Paul. Can definitely say if you want a good breakfast/lunch this is the place to go. Everything is decently portioned for those who love big meals or would like some food for leftovers overs to enjoy later. Out of what I’ve had I’d recommend the Onigiri (specifically the salmon and pickled onions), any of their fruit teas, and the bacon and Swiss crepe (honestly any of them sound great though). All the food is fresh ingredients and not frozen.

Atmosphere is very chill and down to earth. Very cozy and comfort oriented. Only complaint is that if it’s busy not a lot of room to work with and can be a little loud. When it’s slower very nice place to hang out with friends and listen to the music they play.

The service is 5/5! Very nice, relatable, and fast service.“

“Great people, great food, great morals. Thank you!“

“I got the jalapeno cream cheese wontons and a kids pho and both of them were absolutely amazing the pho was delicious and the broth didnt taste like it was prepackaged and the wontons were huge and full of so much creamcheese😋i definitely got my moneys worth“

“My husband and I were there for lunch today. The cooks were great and the Tuscan Flatbread and bacon cheeseburger sliders (Hubby) were so good. We had a nice conversation with I believe he was the manager and the server were so awesome. I will be sure to visit again soon.“

“I haven't had much time to frequent this place much lately, but every time I do I have the time of my life. The staff is amazing, the food is incredible and the community is tight knit and welcoming. I couldn't have picked a better city to live in than St. Paul, and Pillbox is a major reason for it.“

“I traveled 30 miles for a special Parotta feast and they didn't disappoint me and made me to feel it is a worth it. Authentic style Parotta and Salna and other dishes. I like the ambiance very much. I strongly recommend it. The price is very reasonable.“

“Food is good. Stopped in for dinner last night. 12 bucks for a Sam Adams Oktoberfest on tap seems a little excessive.“

“So cozy and sweet, delicious food and great service!“

“Parking was easy and the lot was very clean. There was a new hire taking my order and the surrounding staff treated her very well and with patience. I received much the same treatment and on top, the food was phenomenal for the price. Ordered the Kofte platter.“

“Overall an incredibly tasty, lowkey restaurant a few friends and I stumbled upon. We had momos, biryani, curries, and the chicken thali, all of which were incredibly flavorful (and actually spicy! Not just Minnesota spicy). The service was great, everyone was very friendly and attentive, and seems like a family run business.“

“The Bulldog has the best food and drinks, and Melissa is the best server in town.“

“Absolutely Amazing Pure vegetarian eatery! All our guests were so impressed with the authenticity and topclass taste which felt like home cooked! Thanks to Radhika sriram for the scrumptious satisfying cuisines! Highly recommend this place!“

“Had the best experience. George, Noah, Jake, and the rest of the staff are truly great at what they do. I had the dry aged NY strip and my wife had the tenderloin, Caesar salad, half dozen oysters, and the french fries. Very good! George (head chef) told us about the beef they source and Noah guided us to a new and better after dinner drink. Our server, Mandy, was very good and very hospitable. We love the St. Paul Grille!“

“It is what it is and it commits to the bit! Beers for every taste and sausages of outstanding quality and locality. We at the Mountain Man w Bacon Brine Kraut and hot peppers. BAM! Something to write home about. Holds down a lot of beer. The fries were much better than average.“

“Yummy blue berry scones and of course coffee!“

“I’m a food court foodie, and this is a 5 star review, minus the bones in my goat masala - good portion, reasonably priced (even got a Wednesday discount), with a smiling, friendly owner.
The goat masala is delicious with yellow rice, salad and rightly spiced. If you stay at the Double Tree Hilton, you can use the skyway access, get off level 2 to get to the Town Square food court in like 50 foot steps. Lots of seating to eat or chat. This restaurant is closed Fridays.
Interestingly, both Indian/Mediterranean food are available including gyro bowls and baklava or samosas and biriyani.“

“Haven’t been here in a long time and picked it up last nite. Highly recommend! All dishes we got were fresh and delicious! My daughter has celiac and sam said anything on the menu can be gluten free, she loved the chicken and broccoli and he even packaged it separately to ensure it was safe for her. Highly recommend!“

“The staff is superb. They are friendly, professional and make a warm and inviting atmosphere. The food is fantastic and my young kids always enjoy looking for the cats.“

“I was in Woodbury and was craving Wood fire pizza and I searched up this place. I am happy to say I ate the whole pizza!

I tried #18 Quattro Formaggi. It was so cheesy with the 3 different kinds of cheese and could distinguish between all different cheeses, the crust was soft yet crispy, came with fresh ingredients straight to the oven. It was an enjoyable experience all around plus the staff was very friendly.

I decided to go eat on the patio but they do have inside seating which was busy when I got there!

The pricing isnt too unreasonable but they are going to be smaller pizzas so if you have a family you might need to order a few.

I will come back to try some different combos of pizza or build my own. They have salads and appetizers that I will try the next time I visit with friends!“

“Wonderful service, great food and fun atmosphere!“

“Friendly Service, Fun Atmosphere, AMAZING FOOD EVERY TIME!!!“

“Took a little pause but we're back at it!

Spring vibes in the air, wanting something fresh and healthy but not a salad and also feels like a treat.... No better answer than going to Woodbury's @alohapokeco

Obviously there are plenty of places to grab a poke bowl but this one is just my go to when I want one. I usually grab and go with this dish while running errands and it always hits the spot.

My go to love it thing:
Crunch Bowl with marinated tuna and I change the base sometimes but enjoy a simple white rice to give a sushi vibe. (no jalapeño for me)

They have options for different bowls, sizes, bases customization and non raw meats too.

Sunshine, poke bowl, parked listening to a podcast while eating a quick lunch... perfection. Go check them out and enjoy!

“friendly staff , quick @ lunch Portabello grilled w/ veggies , I enjoyed ! Going back .“

“I am so glad he reopened in town square! I have had nothing but amazing service from the Owner. He's by far the kindest guy you could meet that's running a corner store.

He always has my favorite snacks, a plethora of sparkling water, soda, and tea flavors. Must stop shop if you're downtown in the skyway or at the DMV and need a quick snack.“

“I had already eaten most of it before I took a Pic but their stuff is super flavorful. And their fries are bomb too. My kid always gets a burger and fries. Their steak bowl is pictured and it is soooo good! Also very friendly people working there.“

“Great food and friendly, warm customer service.“

“Amazing!!! Totally Recommend!“

“Went in to buy a frozen deep dish for a fun night with kids and the price jumped to $37! No service, just a frozen pizza. When I asked about the price, the girls at the desk said that was correct! Since Kowalskis bought out the restaurants, they've raised the prices! Last pizza we get there because the food is OK, noting exceptional like it used to be.“

“The best tap list in the Twin Cities northeast metro and guaranteed to have everyone’s favorite appetizer and meal on the menu. It’s a must stop for anyone visiting White Bear Lake and has the best patio in the historical downtown area. Whether you are visiting for the first time or lived here your whole life, you’ll love this place!“

“Excellent Restaurant. You will enjoy dinning outside the Restaurant during summer mild sunshine. Food is great and fair price.“
