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!“

“Our new favorite restaurant!! Charlie was so inviting, made us feel so welcome, and provided great recommendations. The Philly cheesesteak and carrot bacon were amazing, but the fried “chicken” and waffles were absolutely outstanding! We can’t wait to come back and try everything else on the menu!“

“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!“

“The BEST pizza in Charlotte! Perfect balance of crust, cheese, sauce, and oh that flavour. Diavola is our favourite along with Italian chopped salad! I told my husband the only pizza I’ll ever eat is Inizio or Italy:) we ❤ Inizio!“

“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.“

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

“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.🤘“

“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.“

“I have an incurable blood CANCER. If I could afford to eat at Chopt every night I would. My body needs your restaurant because it is fresh, healthy and makes my poor body feel better after I eat at Chopt. Thank you for being in my area to feed me. God bless your restaurant.“

“We’ve visited several locations, and Jeff’s Bagel Run never disappoints. If you appreciate fresh ingredients and freshly baked bagels, this is the place for you! I highly recommend downloading the app and ordering ahead. They also have an amazing reward program.Always order the cream cheese flight.The employees are always sweet.“

“Great sushi options. Ballantine roll was superb, terrific calamari and good selection of cocktails.“

“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.“

“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! 🫶“

“Local Scoop is a hidden gem! If you’re looking for homemade, rich, creamy ice cream, this is the place. It’s locally owned, and you can absolutely taste the quality in every scoop. It’s not the cheapest ice cream around, but you get what you pay for—premium ingredients and incredible flavor.

The must-try flavor is the Salted Peanut Butter & Oreo. It’s one-of-a-kind and hands down one of the best ice cream flavors I’ve ever had. Perfectly creamy, packed with flavor, and loaded with delicious mix-ins.

In a world full of chain ice cream shops, Local Scoop stands out by doing things the right way. Great product, local ownership, and ice cream that’s worth every penny. Highly recommend!!!“

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

“Very good, we really enjoyed our drinks and dinner!“

“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!“

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