50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Indian Trail

“Went to this location for the first time to try viva chicken with my husband! We were greeted but the most wonderful person at the counter. she was friendly and very personable. I had never gone to a viva chicken so I wanted something they didn’t have on today’s menu but She made sure to recommend me something just as good. she was very welcoming and cheery! we loved the food so much and will be back. while we ate Miss Sarah I believe was her name; came out and asked us how our food was. that was above and beyond for me. I n not much of a reviewer but when the service is good and so is the food you have to say something!! Sarah if you see this great job with the customer service and I look forward to visiting again!“

“I must say that I like trail house great atmosphere very nice staff and professionalism is a 10. Great food aswell . Can’t wait to visit again soon.“

“icecream flavors galore!!“

“I’m really picky about tofu and how it’s cooked, this place is hands down the best in town for tofu, not mushy at all. I tried this place for the first time and I wish I did sooner. The Korean BBQ tofu fingers are amazing. The Mac n cheese was good too, not sure the spice they put on top, but it’s sweet. I plan to start going in person!“

“Nina was the absolute best server! Would totally recommend and would ask for her when we coke back.“

“Sara is an amazing waitress.“

“Good food. Environment all right.“

“Great service and great food. Service was like no other, friendly staff and super quick at getting food out.“

“Charlotte’s hidden gem! The Vermont maple farm burger is probably my favorite burger I’ve ever eaten- and I’ve eaten a LOT of burgers over the years. Carol and staff are super friendly. Don’t forget to get some fresh fries too!“

“Angie was absolutely amazing! Friendly and prompt. Food was delish!“

“I am an Argentina native and was so excited to find out about this place. The medialunas are amazing ! the dough of the empanadas are 10/10 but I feel the empanada filling is overwhelmed by cumin. If it didn't have cumin, I feel like they would even be better than my mom's!“

“Food is absolutely amazing. New hidden gem in Matthews. The variety and combination is unique and the best you will taste around. It's healthy.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I always go to this Piada location and it never disappoints. The food is always fresh, the staff is consistently friendly, and every visit is a great experience. I come here almost every other week, and they’ve gotten to know me over time, which makes it feel even more welcoming. It’s definitely one of my favorite spots and I highly recommend this location!“

“We come weekly and look forward to it! Stephanie is our favorite server, she's always friendly and takes great care of us. The food is fresh, the happy hour and nightly specials are good deals, and the atmosphere is fun! Highly recommend!“

“First time visit. Food was delicious and staff was very attentive... FIVE STAR �!!!“

“Perfect place to enjoy a coffee and work!“

“Abugida is the best Ethiopian in Charlotte, the food is made fresh everyday. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. If you haven't tried Ethiopian, they will help you with the menu. This food is amazing and their injera is always fresh and delicious. Always order coffee!“

“This is not your typical pizza; the flavors and style is a gourmet pizza experience. Hudson even kindly let us watch as he made the pizzas and talked us through the process and toppings preparation. With all of the interesting options, you can go often and try something different each time.“

“This is a hidden gem! It’s our new favorite place. The food and service were excellent!“

“Always “great food and plenty of it” as they say. Best B’fast’s and shrimp & grits (see pic) you can find. A lot more choices if you’re adventurous! Place is clean with Polite staff and always helpful.“

“The food is absolutely delicious. Easily the best curry I’ve had in Charlotte. I will definitely be visiting over and over.“

“We needed a Gluten Free option and the usuals are getting old! The Steak sandwich on a GF bun was delicious! It fit the bill perfectly for what we were seeking. The Parmesan potato’s pancake was cooked to perfection. The only adjustments I would make was (when the steak was after the server asked and the steak was ordered medium, that it should have at least some pink), but it was tender and flavorful. The multi-server thing got confusing. One person took drink order, another delivered (1 was incorrect), another ran the food and we were not told of the multi-layered service). Everyone was nice, it was just a little confusing and no one ever asked about drink refills and when the coffee cup was empty there was no one around for a long time. But… we still like the food, prices, atmosphere, options, and consistency.“

“Great place to go for the best chopped salad. All ingredients are fresh. Wide selection of salads and ability to add additional items if wanted. Very clean. Pleasant staff. A must go place for salads. User friendly app to order and pay ahead. Great location in Blakeney Shopping Center. Definitely a place to return again and again as I do. My favorite is the California Steakhouse salad and I do the add ins for a Southwest twist.“

“I was there the same day as Ajiay. I must say I’m beyond offended that someone would make fun of a child learning, he said it was his second day and that he was still learning. His trainer was kind, knowledgeable and patient, great service will return soon!“

“Delicious! The chocolate orange was incredible!!! We will definitely be back“

“I <3 Steph! She is a kind lady with red lipstick who remembers by order even when I haven't been there for weeks. I always get a tomato soup and each time it is hot, flavorful, and delicious. They even give me little bread slices to go with it. I have had nothing but lovely experiences there and would recommend it to anyone.“

“Celiac? Gluten sensitivity? This is your place. Living with Celiac or having a gluten intolerance is frustrating by itself. It becomes much more frustrating when you go to a restaurant and you tell the server your issue, and they look at you like you're an alien from another planet… or worse… get frustrated with you. I've lost count of how many places I've had to walk out of because I knew just from speaking to them that it wasn't safe for me to eat there. That doesn't happen here. Not only do they have plenty of gluten-free options (which are well labeled on the menu)... But the staff also seem to be well trained on how to handle the questions that we may have. I had a server specifically ask me one time after I ordered a gluten-free bun if I was Celiac…that has never happened before…anywhere. (I've been here enough now that they pretty much all know without me having to even say it anymore, but that's beside the point.) The staff and owners have always been extremely friendly whenever we are there. The atmosphere is great, the food is great, and it's just an overall great experience for us every time we go. It means a tremendous amount to be able to sit down at a table and not really worry about how I'm going to feel 30 minutes after I leave because someone in the kitchen or the server themselves doesn't understand how to handle my food after I tell them my issue. It SHOULD be this easy everywhere, but those of us that deal with it everyday know that it's not. If you're looking for a place that serves great food, with staff that understands what it means to be careful with cross-contamination and what you're served, this is your place. Communicate with them clearly, and you will not be disappointed.🤘“

“Good food affordable and the tacos have thoughtful combinations that are yummy 😋“

“Excellent chili Mac! My go to for 30 years…“

“Chicken & waffles were delicious also the shrooms. Service was also great“

“The food and service at Improper Pig in Plaza Midwood is great. Traci is wonderful! I love the outdoor space. I’ll be back.“

“Stopped in yesterday after shopping at Home Depot. Ordered a large waffle cone with two flavors. Carrot Cake and Butter Pecan. WOW, the Carrot Cake was incredible! Both were really great to be honest and really creamy. I don’t eat Ice Cream often, but next time I’m craving some, I’ll come back to this place for sure.“

“Some of the freshest, delicious food in Charlotte. The owners are invested in your experience and have done a wonderful job with their new restaurant. Highly recommended.“

“Raw Bites are quite literally life changing. My biggest pain point has always been my sweet tooth, and after finding out about Raw Bites, I always make sure I have some on hand. They’re the perfect, guilt-free indulgence, and life is SO much better (and tastier) because it exists! 🫶“

“Enjoyed the winter, “shareables” and time on the patio!“

“Great service! Great food!! The owners are fabulous!!“

“Food is very fresh, great prices“

“Really good coffee and bagels! My coworker recommended this spot and I have not been disappointed. They have a wide variety of spreads, including vegan options. I personally love their asiago, jalapeno cheddar, and rosemary salt bagels. Their iced coffee is pretty good, I have gotten their iced banana bread latte multiple times!“

“I'm addicted to the gyro plates and baklava cheesecake 😍😍😍 the Matthews location is the best around, hands down... always quick, polite, and delicious 🤤🤤🤤“

“Never disappoints (except when they are out of vegan or regular carrot cake, haha). They have out of this word food and many great vegan, vegetarian, and carnivore options. The vibe is chill and I am never disappointed. This is a hidden gem off Central that closes early, so get there (and check their hours) if you haven’t been. Their food is top tier for veggie comfort food but also if you are looking for healthy options. A lot of their food is named from stable Charlotte spots. 10/10 recommend!“

“We enjoy going later in the evening for food, beer and wine, and usually sit at the bar when seats are available. The bartenders are great. Jennifer is usually there when we go, she is so friendly, fun and efficient and is a great help when you are undecided on your drink. The beer and wine specials are good and we usually go for the salads and pizzas , both of which are really good. It's a nice atmosphere and the employees are very friendly.“

“Excellent service and food! Especially, good service at the bar on Tuesdays.“

“Awesome food and awesome service! I tried every taco on the menu and loved them all!!!“
