50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Cary

“Had a fantastic dining experience! The food was delicious, the atmosphere warm and welcoming—but what truly made the evening exceptional was our server, Marissa. From the moment we were seated, she was attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. She anticipated our needs without being intrusive and made sure every detail of our meal was perfect. Marissa’s professionalism and genuine warmth turned a great dinner into an unforgettable one. We'll definitely be back—and asking for Marissa again!“

“Spent the day exploring downtown Cary and came across this little bistro! Outside dining was great! Amazing food and friendly service! Sophia, my waitress was fantastic! Very friendly and attentive! The cocktail “The Butterfly Effect “ is just as good as it is pretty! The baked Brie and arugula/beet salad was delicious! Great find in Cary for sure!“

“Great Food. Excellent Host.“

“I love eating at Zest. Awesome food and service. We have needed sushi in downtown Cary for so long and this is sushi plus so much more. Love sitting at the bar.“

“The food is always delicious and service is impeccable. Ethan is a great waiter.“

“Ask the great Staff about the Bakery across the street and they highly recommended it and the scones. I got some sweet tooth treats and a french sandwich and every was delicious. the scones are amazing. SHOUTOUT to Steven! I will be back! #lafarmbakery“

“This is the best pizza I’ve ever had!! I traveled from Greenville and it was more than worth the drive!!“

“Very good idea for family and friends“

“Staff clearly knows what's gluten free, happily points it out on the menu and at the dipping sauce station. Dipping sauce station is super clean and appeared free of contamination, no mixing of ingredients/sauces. Vegan options are obvious on the menu, and plentiful. Service was stellar, and soooo was the food! This is is my new favorite, hands down. Show up hungry, the servings are generous.“

“My husband and I travel through Cary, North Carolina, about once every two months. We always make a point to dine at another Nepales’s restaurant nearby, but it was closed on Monday this time. The front desk staff at the Hyatt hotel in Cary suggested the Nepal House so we thought we would give it a try because we really had a craving for that type of food and we have been waiting all day to arrive so that we could dine at the other Nepal restaurant. The experience at the Nepal House was exceptional! The service was wonderful, my husband had a lamb dish and I had a chicken tandoor dish, I also had a house salad, and the best thing we had was the Momo’s! Everything was exceptional, but the Momo’s were to die for, we had never had them before and they were just out of this world you can’t go without having the Momos! They have a bar and a nice selection of wines. Everything was wonderful and we can’t wait to return again soon! We highly recommend this restaurant!“

“We’ve chosen Umstead Hotel and Spa for a pampering celebration of our anniversary. It was a great experience! Beautiful clean rooms and hotel ambiance, relaxing SPA with all possible amenities, amazing couple massage session and delicious dinner. Hotel stuff made our celebration special with the complementary treats and a champagne in our room. We definitely will be looking forward to come back!“

“I was pleasantly surprised. I dined at the more "private" section, and the food was excellent. The service was just as good.“

“Seol Grille is our absolute favorite place to eat! We go a handful of times a year and always leave full and happy. The food is so good and we always have an excellent experience! The servers always make sure my family and I are taken care of. We will be back again and again. We love Soul Grille!❤️“

“We have had take away from this restaurant twice. It is our new favorite curry place. We have loved everything we ordered both times. Very fresh, flavorful and good portion sizes. We had tandoori mixed grill, butter chicken, Somosa chaat, aloo gobi, naans, raita and mango chutney. We have tried so many Indian restaurants in the area, this one is our new favorite. Their food, portions and prices are the best. The ginger lemon tea is a bonus!“

“Amazing food and great service“

“The pizza is delicious and coming from NJ, I know good pizza. I grew up eating NY style pizza and the pizza here is a very close second and a nice small friendly place to take your family for a quick bite to eat during the week when you can’t decide what to cook at home.“

“Your new server Jay was excellent!! Extra attentive, friendly, accommodating, and my drink was always refilled - I would come back for service like Jay's! However, the ribeye was very burnt for medium rare, but I didn't want to wait for a new one to be fired and just ate it. Texas Pete potatoes, garlic broccoli, and caesar salad were yum tho! Thanks Jay 😁“

“Unusual experience today at first watch. Greeter appeared to be a disinterested customer, approached me and asked “how many” while paying more attention to his phone than to my answer. Wasn’t dressed in the normal uniform and while I answered him I still assumed he was joking around since none of the workers were present. I’m sure my breakfast will be great as usual but someone needs to train him that he is the first impression a customer is going to get and my interaction with him wasn’t great“

“Love the atmosphere! Great service, great food and drinks 🍻“

“Courtney is a great server. Always makes sure that everything is what we wanted or need. Highly recommend her.“

“We love Salvio’s, but I’m so sad that with the new online ordering system there is no option for roni cups except for on a specialty square pizza. Please add roni cups back to the build your own pizza ☹️ High quality pizza, delicious!“

“Cozy little place with great food!! Their garlic ramen was amazing!!“

“Very nice restaurant, great food . 😋 Server Jake was very nice .“

“Miso Ramen bar is undeniably delicious, and my son considers it his favorite ramen spot. Situated conveniently near Downtown Raleigh, the restaurant offers ample parking. I recommend arriving a bit early as there may be a short wait (reservations are not accepted), but there is bar seating available. Upon arrival, you can add your name to the waitlist, which is a nice touch. The restaurant is consistently busy, yet always well-maintained with clean facilities. The servers are knowledgeable about the menu and go the extra mile to ensure a welcoming experience. Whether dining with friends or adults, everyone can find something appetizing on the menu. Here is what we order on our most recent visit: Karage Wings $12 Pork Belly Buns (2) $9 Kids Miso Ramen with Chicken and Eggs Grilled Chicken Rice Bowl $12 The food was delicious overall, and I particularly enjoyed the wings and the pork belly bun. A tip to keep in mind: it's best to finish the wings while you're at the restaurant. If you have any leftovers and take them home, they don't reheat well.“

“A total delight! The pizza creator was alone in the mid afternoon and my order was ready on time and served with a smile! Thanks for a great experience today 😊

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and keto options as well as vegetarian. Great tasting too!“

“Their bao buns are top tier, and the plates are an excellent value. The braised egg and pickled mustard greens were my favorite part. Can’t wait to visit again.“

“Ramen and sushi were both outstanding! Prompt, friendly service. Highly recommend!“

“One of the best places for Middle East food in the Triangle area“

“We come to Sushi at the Park often. We always ask for Jen because she is a wonderful server and bartender. She gets 5 stars and so does the restaurant. The only recommendation I would make is to have the option for quail eggs on the Ikura.“

“Turkish delicious foods“

“Great selection of healthy foods!“

“I had the beef soup. It was so flavorful! The sides were amazing. Second time I’m here snd will be back for more“

“Hazy IPA was amazing, definitely will be back.“

“Very good drinks and food, large portions. Service also good.“

“Jessica at T-Mobile recommended Chuy's to us. Everyone, especially our server, James, was great. We both enjoyed the food and atmosphere as well. Will be there again, soon.“

“I am Ethiopian and let me tell you....this is the best Authentic food spot that makes even my friends from DC appreciate. In my opinion the tire Siga is top notch organic. The team do a good job in everything they make. Fantastic staff! Fantastic food! Fantastic atmosphere! Just FYI it only has few seats and it is mostly a take out spot. My taste buds thank you for existing 😆 💖9.9999@mila😆“

“My favorite place for Thai food!“

“Great neighborhood takeout. Huge portions for not a whole lotta money.
The food is exactly as you'd expect from a take-out: some dishes are better than others but all are pretty good
The staff is friendly. The place is clean. The prices super affordable.
So what's not to like?“

“We went for Father’s Day and had a wonderful experience I wish I remembered the Server‘s name. She was a young lady wearing glasses. She did a wonderful job was very attentive checked in on us and overall the food was amazing. The pancakes were very fluffy and we will definitely be back again.“

“todo muy buen cervicio x las meseras y muy rica su comida“

“Sophie's Restaurant is amazing! Their food is excellent and the owners and staff are very attentive. They make a great effort in making sure you have a wonderful experience whether it's dinner or an event.“

“We were in the restaurant on 4/10 and Liz B was our waitress. She was the bubbliest, friendliest waitress and made sure we were taken care of. My husband has high standards for waitresses and as we were leaving he said "she was the best waitress I have had in a long time!" That is a huge comment within itself. Thanks for a great experience Liz B!!“

“Pleasantly surprised at how good my lunch was today! At first I thought the menu lacked variety but the quality and taste really made up for it! I ordered the hibachi steak lunch and a side of miso soup and it was made Fresh! The veggies were so crunchy and the steak was cooked just right. The miso soup came boiling hot and everything just tasted not too greasy. The portion size was large enough for me to have leftovers for the next day. For $14 you can’t beat it. Highly recommend to check them out! By the way the decor is adorable! Super instagram worthy and it’s a husband and wife shop too!“

“Great food friendly staff!“

“Awesome experience. Bonefish is well known for their dish called “Bang Bang Shrimp” and the appetizer did not disappoint. My husband had the blacken chicken egg rolls and enjoyed them very much. The menu itself was plentiful. You had options on top of options with a flare of creativity!! I loved the flexibility. For the entrees, my husband ordered the chimichurri bistro fillet with a side a mushroom risotto, kung pao brussels sprouts. I ordered chilean Seabass with chimichurri sauce, a side of broccoli and whipped mashed potatoes. My husband’s food was DELICIOUS. The kung pao Brussel sprouts was the favorite. I love roast brussels sprouts in general, but the Kung pow sauce elevated the brussels sprouts for me. The Seabass was cooked to perfection as well light, fluffy and tender. The chimichurri sauce was a perfect compliment to the sea bass. When we have a good meal, we always want dessert. We had their apple cider cheesecake and bourbon brownie. The cheesecake was delicious out of love for the apples to be sautéed versus raw because the garnishments that were like a cookie crust gave me the crunch that I needed so having them sautéed would’ve been better for me. For the bourbon brownie, warm and delicious would’ve been great if there was ice cream however they were out of ice cream.

Shout out to our waitress Allison who was amazing. She provided a great experience and made awesome recommendations. I will definitely request her when we visit next time. Another shout out to the manager Andrew he was very proactive on the dining room floor serving with a smile making sure everyone is having a good experience. The ambience was an overall vibe. From the time you came in, you can already see that there was guest, enjoying their meals. People being served, the AC temperature was comfortable, not overbearing. As the evening rolled in and the dining room activity picked up the romantic vibe settled in made it very intimate and cozy. My husband had the smoked bourbon and enjoyed both of them. I had the blueberry refresher which was very refreshing.“

“I love the staff and owners at Chatham St. They provide such excellent service and selection to all guests and are always friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend them.“

“This is our favorite restaurant for flavor, healthy options, price, and proximity to our home. For years, we've enjoyed the consistently good food (my personal favorite is the grilled shrimp feast!). The last two visits here (both within the last 3 weeks) were still decent, but the shrimp was smaller in size, spiced differently (hotter in spice) from in the past, and noticeably smaller portions in general for both my husband's and my meal. While the food was still acceptable, it was disappointing not to be delighted, as has been the usual case in the past. (New ownership?)
The employees at this location are always friendly, efficient, and helpful, with one in particular standing out as going above and beyond. Her name is LaKayla.
We'll continue to frequent this location, giving them a chance to redeem themselves, but if the food quality and quantity doesn't go back to how it was, we'll have to find a new favorite place. I hope they revert to their off-the-charts' previous performance on the food!“

“Food was amazing; service was slow but outstanding and pleasant. Would like to complement the Chef(s). Their combination of flavors was superb“

“Fortnight Brewing Company is an absolute favorite! We love spending Thursday nights here for music bingo—it's always such a fun and lively experience. The drinks are top-notch, with an impressive selection to suit every taste. And I have to give a special shoutout to their mead—my personal favorite! The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, making it the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy great company. If you're looking for a place with fantastic drinks and a vibrant community vibe, this is it!“
