50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Gladstone

“I love dining at broken rice. The food is always fantastic. Emma and her husband have created a very bright and comfortable space. The flavors are awesome. The fried quail appetizer is always delicious, but then so is the rest of their food.“

“We have been going to Lotus Hot Pot since it opened. Anytime we crave hot pot we head that way all the way from Independence. Restaurant is always clean, service is great and food is delicious! Hannah always makes sure to come out and greet her guest and Lina gives amazing service with a smile. Love the new all you can eat menu, just the right amount of serving (not like other places) and when you need more just order more!“

“We were staying overnight at The Fairfield Inn, and The Summit Grill was recommended to us for a dinner location. We were pleasantly surprised at the deliciously amazing food, quick service, and also our attentive waiter, Travis. I highly recommend the Traditional Pot Roast, and my husband recommends the Chicken-Fried Chicken. If we are in Gladstone again, we will defintely return.“

“I'm so grateful for this hole in the wall Vietnamese restaurant! It is always delicious, especially the Bahn Mi and Bun with grilled pork/eggroll + peanut sauce. Spencer and his wife are always so kind and make sure my order is correct. I also enjoy the relaxing music when I dine in as compared to most restaurant's loud music when I'm chatting with friends. Please check this place out!!“

“We just ate here for the first time and first of all the pizza was delicious. Maybe best pizza I’ve eaten ever. But backstory, my mom just passed away a week and a half ago and we’ve been on the struggle bus and our server was so incredibly kind to us and there was a magician they hired walking around doing tricks for tables. He was not only amazing and I couldn’t believe what I was seeing but more importantly, he brought us joy to us in a dark time and I will forever be such a fan of this restaurant. It was so needed for myself and my little family and I can’t wait to recommend this place to all. ❤️ Thank you again for a happy night.“

“Food is delicious. 8 of us all are happy“

“We’ve been regulars here for years and for good reason. The facility is impressively clean, and the service is some of the best in town—friendly, attentive, and fast.
I’ve tried a bit of everything: the lunch specials (Shrimp/Combo), soups, and Lo Mein. The food is consistently delicious, well-portioned, and very fairly priced. The egg drop soup is my favorite in town. If you're looking for fresh food and a team that actually cares about their customers, this is the place. This is not a buffet but individually prepared dishes. You will find a favorite.“

“I cannot express enough how amazed I am with the customer service. Yesterday (Super Bowl Sunday—-GO CHIEFS!) I placed an online order. My pick up time was at 5 (earliest I could get because I waited too long to place the order) I arrive early hoping it would be done earlier because I had people arriving at my house and I didn’t want to miss the game. When I arrived it was packed on people waiting. I assumed I was going to be there for awhile so asked if I could order a beer. They got me a beer and a chair. As I sat there for over an hour (it went past my pick up time) I saw all of the employees working very hard trying their best to fill the orders quickly. Some of the customers were being quite rude to the girls up front as the customers were upset their food wasn’t ready. The girls did an amazing job keeping everyone calm they would simply just smile and tell them they are working on it. I was so impressed how these girls handled themselves not one time did I hear them get snippy with a customer even tho I’m sure they wanted to. It was always a smile with a polite response. I was there almost til the end and a guy started yelling at the girls and still it was a smile and polite response. I got my food and made it for the game and the food was delicious as always!“

“Had a great experience loved the food will recommend to friends and family“

“I could not be happier with the food, drinks and staff for what they put up with from us over a holiday weekend! 12 out of 10!“

“Thank you Mano and Barbara for making Gene and Jeffrey’s marriage celebration a wonderful night. We appreciate you and your incredible restaurant.“

“Was walking around the Crossroads area and decided to give this place a try. Came in a little before 8:30 hoping to get a table since it was getting close to closing time. Host and waiter gladly took us to our table.

Tried the bratsalatte, and really enjoyed the flavors of the pumpkin vinaigrette, it wasn't too overpowering, a nice hint of sweetness brought the flavors altogether, was a big fan of the croutons, as they were house made but gave a nice crispy bread like texture.

I had the schnitzel and it was by far one of the best breaded pork cutlet I've ever had. Nice crisp on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. When paired with the lingonberry sauce it definitely enhanced the experience with a subtle fruit sweetness, again not overpowering but enough to balance the cutlet. The sides served was a cucumber salad and Potato salad. Both were excellent in their own ways. At first I was a bit confused with how they were prepared. It seemed as if the cucumber salad should've been prepared the way the potato salad was prepared and vice versa. The cucumber salad had a creamy taste aligned with most potato salads and the potato salad had a pickled flavoring as you would find in a cucumber. But either way, paired with the pork schnitzel it was delightful.

Tried the wife's bone in schweinekotlett, pork cutlet with natural jus and even that dish was just as fantastic. Meat was tender, juicy and the jus from the pork really gave it a nice umami flavor. Parts of the meat were a bit fatty for my wife, but not a problem for me as it's one of my favorite parts of the pork. If you've ever had a good pork broth soup such as tonkotsu that is what the flavor reminded me of.

Service was top notch. Server was very accommodating, knowledgeable with the menu as well as recommending dishes. Although it was right around closing time, waiter offered us deserts and told us we were in no rush. We are in now way experts on Austrian cuisine, but know good food when we taste it. We felt very welcome and would gladly go back again!“

“The trains going back and forth were so cool to watch!“

“So good! everything tasted delicious“

“Excellent tacos“

“our 2nd time here from South Dakota the smoked turkey was incredible burnt ends you don't even have to chew. and the slaw is unbelievable we ate so much, then got the sampler to bring home a must stop every time we make the 5 hour drive to KC“

“Love your show....Great food...Great people...Support your locals... Always“

“My boyfriend and I visited for our anniversary. our service was phenomenal, cocktails tasty, and the was in our top favorite meals we have ever eaten! He had the Pork Chop and I had Prime Rib! Very Good!!“

“Fantastic experience ordering burritos for a large group at my work. Tasty options, easy process, and will be choosing them for catering again!“

“Really fun atmosphere, great service and great food. The Al Pastor tacos were my favorite blending unique flavors of sweet fruits with small pieces spicy jalapeno peppers. A real treat for the taste buds. We went on a Tuesday night which was Taco Tuesday. They had $3 tacos (you can pick from four options) and discounts in drinks. I tried the Al Pastor, Cheeseburger Taco, Buffalo Cauliflower, and Chicken Tinga. All four were very good.“

“The service and the food… 12/10! This was our first visit, but anytime we visit KC, we will be back! 🫶🏻“

“Our family eats at Nick and Jake's often and we love it!! Great food, great prices.“

“My friends and I went to the Hey, Hey Club to do some celebrating!! Our waitress was phenomenal! Thank you for a great night!“

“Great coffee, perfecto customer service and food!!“

“Always a great experience! Good food fast! Servers are the best. We eat in there at least 3x a week. Fair prices and good quality. Best North of the river. See ya tomorrow!!“

“I love kitties hamburgers, and have highly reviewed them in the past. I was really looking forward to today to one this Friday afternoon and I have memorized their hours.
Behold, they’re closed until the end of February. Was a very small faded cardboard sign on the door.
If they really cared about their customers, they’d have a big one that you could see from the street without having to park and walk um readable one .
And they would at least update their website.
Guess I’ll have to go to Shake shack this afternoon.“

“This was my go-to spot every single week when I lived in Kansas City five years ago. Since then, I’ve lived in Georgia, California, and Washington, and I currently reside in Seattle—yet this place remains the #1 Vietnamese restaurant I’ve ever been to. I am so jealous of the people who live nearby. Highly recommended!“

“I’ve been looking for a new Chinese place since my place has closed. Tao Tao IS my new place!!! The food is phenomenal!! Love “Mama” and Jennifer, the sweetest people ever! Thank you ladies! 🩷“

“Amazing food and great atmosphere!!“

“Wonderful atmosphere yummy food truck outside. The energy from Iowa State was intoxicating wonderful place.“

“we had a great experience I'll definitely be back!“

“We LOVE Milwaukee Deli to the point where we knew we had to have it as a late night snack at our wedding! We worked out a catering order with Jon who was so great at assisting us and making sure what we ordered showed up at our venue at the requested time! We didn't have to worry about a thing on the day and just got the glorious news from our venue coordinator that the pizza had arrived! Our guests DEVOURED this pizza. Thanks again to Jon and Milwaukee Deli for helping to make our special day even better!“

“Amazing flavors to simple foods and the lemonade is superb.“

“Fish and chips were amazing!“

“Staff, dinner, wine, and ambiance were all amazing. Great NYE dinner! The scallops were cooked perfectly! Highly recommend to all!“

“First time at this Big Biscuit location. The staff are all friendly. Our server Hannah was exceptional. She helped give suggestions and answered all our questions. The speed of getting the food was phenomenal. The staff here really takes pride in their duties. It made for a wonderful experience instead of just getting a meal.“

“Went to Cliff’s last night while in KC for a volleyball tournament for our granddaughter. She has celiac disease.
They were accommodating with a broad GF menu and ALL of the food was fantastic!
Best wings I’ve had in years, the corn chowder soup was amazing, the pasta and sandwiches were all wonderful!
We can’t wait to come back!
Thank you!!😊“

“THE best place to eat at the river market, bestie and I go every time we’re there. She gets shawarma I get the grilled salmon and we always leave with pita and spicy hummus. The employees are so welcoming and it is the only restaurant I will ever finish my rice in 10/10 & go get the baklava from next door“

“Perfectly and freshly prepared menu items that just called on Spain! Absolutely delicious, charming surroundings and immaculate service. Luke and Megan made La Bodega totally memorable with their charm and polite kindness⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We went here three times yesterday. Yes, three times. We were at an event around the corner and were able to walk over. We ate at 5 of the venders. All were fabulous. Mushroom burger, paneer wrap, avocado toast, curry fries, focaccia, street corn, and ice cream. All the staff were so kind and engaging. It was easy to find many GF options too. Just wish there would have been more heater lamps since it was cold.“

“Los Alamos Cocina is easily the best authentic Mexican food in KC. The menudo and pozole is best ive ever had and the chili rolo and verde are both outstanding, tastes exactly like homemade because they are. Wonderful family owned stop in a historic area of KC. oh and dont forget to treat yourself to the best chillaquiles and eggs you'll ever have. Delicious! The catering we got for our New Years feast was a huge hit as well: tamales, pork verde and menudo. EXCELLENTE!“

“I couldn't help but notice a review about 13 or 14 down the list here from back in July from a Katie Lee. Because you thought it was necessary to write and post such a childish and scathing review of your horrible experience at this establishment that clearly has It out for you and your family blah blah blah. I felt the need to tell you to go get fucked and get struck by lightning or eaten by sharks...... reminded me why I moved away from liberty years ago and occasionally go back for things like a nice laid back well served lunch on the square. And that's about it...“

“We did the distillery tour followed by the Mad Hatter speakeasy pop up. The tour was quite enjoyable and our guide Tony was awesome! There was a great selection of cocktails at the Mad Hatter and we enjoyed them all. Would recommend both the tour and the speakeasy.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at akoya Omakase, and it was one of those rare restaurant experiences that reminds you how special thoughtful hospitality and craftsmanship can be.

From the moment the meal began, it was clear that every dish was created with intention. The level of detail and care that goes into each course is remarkable—every bite felt deliberate, balanced, and beautifully composed. You can truly see and taste the thoughtfulness behind the menu, from the way ingredients are paired to the precision in preparation and presentation.

What stood out most to me was how much pride the team takes in their work. The experience feels personal rather than transactional, and that level of care is something you don’t encounter everywhere.

Akoya Omakase isn’t just serving sushi; they’re creating an experience built on respect for ingredients, technique, and guests. It’s the kind of place where passion is obvious in every course.

I’m incredibly excited to see what the future holds for them. If the dedication and creativity I experienced are any indication, I have no doubt they’ll continue to grow and thrive. Restaurants like this deserve success, and I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend.“

“my FAVORITE place for special occasion brunches- my birthday, mother's day, etc everything is always delicious and we love the small business support in the brands shared in the front of the restaurant and in the menu options!“

“We love Sahara. The food is always great and just the right amount of spice. They are very attentive to customers and make us feel welcome. They have set a very high bar for great Indian food! No one else compares!“

“Food tastes amazing, they know how to use good ingredients and great preparation! The servers are lovely and knowledgeable about the menu, a very friendly place! Love love love the old building and that they kept the antique elegance instead of renovating it into another white minimalist nightmare. Highly reccomend the salmon, definitely coming back“

“Tonight we went to celebrate an accomplishment by my teenage daughter. I am a member of a Northland restaurant group and I was told to ask for Jamie because she is highly recommended. She was our server and my gosh, she went above and beyond. She mad our night wonderful and my daughter could NOT have been happier. Absolutely beaming. Thank you Stroud’s and Jamie for giving us a wonderful night that we won’t soon forget.“

“My daughter vegan and myself non vegan enjoyed this restaurant equally. Amazing food and service. I can’t wait to return 💞“
