50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Weaverville

“We live just north of the village and come here often. Love Yellow Mug! Order at the counter, find a table indoors or out, they will find you when your food is ready. Terrific fresh-ground coffee, creative breakfasts, sandwiches, salads (I love The One with Quinoa and Butternut Squash—yes, that is its name). Very fresh food, veg/vegan and GF options, beer and wine, excellent wifi….one of our favorite places!!!“

“We’ve passed by so many times and always see a bunch of cars. We finally stopped in last night and we are so glad we did. Drinks were great, our server was fantastic. I think her name was Gretta. She gave us food suggestions and was very attentive. Food was great. Hubby had the Sea Bass special and I had the pork belly and scallops. Both delicious. The baklava pie was out of this world. I think we will be stopping by again while we are visiting. Highly recommended. Lots of people waiting for a table and take out. We loved the vibe and decor.“

“awesome place! great food ! good service! go and be happy! :)“

“Great food, service, & beer selection! The fried pepperoni & cheese curds were delicious. My wife liked the firecracker shrimp Alfredo, but said it had some spice. The Greek platter was amazing as well. I got the combination to try both the lamb & chicken. The chicken tasted like souvlaki & was good, but I favored the lamb. I typically would order an old fashioned, but they did not have large blocks of ice. Given what Helene’s impact on western NC, I was happy to see this restaurant thriving & folks in good spirit. This place is a gem for the community, and I highly recommend.“

“Atmosphere is incredible: a little old fashion but thoroughly modern. Lots of menu choices. Very nicely displayed in their refrigerated deli style glass case. Large portions. Good service. Daily specials. The cheese biscuits are the best cheese biscuits I've ever tasted: buttery, moist and large, and reasonably priced.“

“Absolutely incredible vegan food! Plant is a more upscale vegan restaurant, and it delivers on every level. The atmosphere is elegant but welcoming, and the food is amazing. The cheese platter is a must-try, so flavorful and beautifully presented. I also loved the ravioli; it was rich, creative, and perfectly done. Whether you’re vegan or not, this place is absolutely worth a visit!“

“Delicious veg food (including sweets), great helpful staff and cool stickers. Highly recommended!!!“

“This is one of our favorite spots in Asheville! We highly recommend and they also have an awesome market where you can purchase a yummy Curate Salsa de Aperitivo, spices that you can use to cook with at home, ham sandwiches to go, and so much other delicious flavors from Spain. You guys are awesome! ❤️❤️❤️“

“I got the Mac burger with bacon, tots on the side, & a vanilla milkshake! Everything was absolutely delicious! The proportions were perfect. The milkshake was thick, sweet but not too sweet, & had rainbow sprinkles!! The only thing I'd ask is to maybe put more bacon on the burger!! I will be back for sure!“

“First visit today and it won’t be our last!! It was fantastic!!!“

“An asset to our community for two decades and still going.“

“Every single interaction we had at Limones was sincere, intentional, and well executed. We were greeted and given a place to wait in the lobby with an herbal seltzer. Our server Jamie was extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and gave eloquent, robust descriptions of the food as well as his recommendations we requested. We shared the lardo pizza - you should too. This is cellophane thin pork fat rendered just so to melt into incredible cheese and oven fired crust. I would go back for more this second. Every part of our meal exuded that impeccable attention to detail. A ravioli type pasta with ham cornbread and peas was the perfect Appalachian/Italian pairing. The tiramisu was thick, custardy, eggy in the lightest but creamiest way. The pistachio gelato with pistachio syrup was incredible. My only wish would’ve been to try one more dessert but we did make a 9:30 reservation so you roll the dice. That panna cotta sounded wonderful. I could not imagine anyone being less than thoroughly impressed with Limones. My husband was a chef for 20+ years and felt every aspect of a great meal was part of our meal there. 10/10 Limones.“

“Had a wonderful experience at Chai Pani. I had the Buffett and the food was all so flavorful. Would recommend!“

“Fantastic meal last night at Jargon! The ginger carrot 🥕 soup was incredible. We paired it with Asparagus and risotto. The strawberry dessert was amazing and the after dinner drinks with espresso beans were perfection.“

“WOW! Very good food and service. We will be back to try other dishes from their menu.“

“my friends and I visited Monday after the herb festival and had the best food of our whole trip at Chestnut! they had the Eggs Benedict and I chose the burger gluten free. all our meals were amazing and the care our waitress put into asking about my gluten issues was so appreciated! I do believe it was the best gluten free burger fries and cheese tots I have eaten ever! Thank you so much for taking the time and going the extra mile for those of us with Celiac. Crystal ( I hope that's right, my mind is old lol)was truly awesome and everyone needs to experience this place and her! 500 stars!!“

“We went here for our anniversary and had an exceptional experience. We were given a card signed by the staff, congratulating us on our occasion, as well as given multiple free things to celebrate. The food was excellent, and they had an extremely extensive wine menu as well. The waitress was also excellent and checked in on it quite often. We were told by multiple staff members happy anniversary and I couldn't have asked for a better experience.“

“My friends and I ate here during our visit to Asheville in August 2024 and I can’t stop thinking about it. It was so good! I cannot wait to have another opportunity to go back“

“We have lived in Asheville for about 15 years and have been eating Suzy’s food since there was only a food truck. It’s nourishing, delicious, and always filling, not to mention very fairly priced! The ownership and staff are amazing and have always been welcoming to myself and all of my diverse groups of friends and family. We love Gypsy Queen!“

“Five Points is on point! Bathrooms were nice and clean, staff was polite and attentive, & the food was really tasty, with generous portions! I highly recommend if you’re in the Montfort area of Asheville that you bring your appetite and enjoy a meal here. Will definitely be back for more! 🍽️ 😋“

“We have visited once for dinner and once for breakfast and I have a tough time putting down my utensils. Dinner with 4 had tartar and mussels and calamari apps and all were perfect. I had the Gemelli pasta dish (gluten sensitive) and enjoyed the flavors. For breakfast I had the Benedict Hash. My mouth wants to marry that sauce. The steak and eggs were perfectly cooked, the sauce is bold with lemon and paprika and oh so delicious.“

“Luella’s pulled pork is absolutely delicious! It’s hands down some of the best I’ve ever had. Super tender and full of flavor. A definite go-to if you’re craving top-notch barbecue. Highly recommend!“

“Yum! Great pizza! Wonderful, friendly staff.“

“I highly recommend any business that steps up for their community in times of need. thank you for getting those 596 people fed yesterday!! kudos!“

“Their pastries are divine and I would go there any time I am visiting Asheville“

“We have been eating here for over a decade. Came back for the first time post-Helene, and it was such a welcoming, comforting experience!! I had the special which was INCREDIBLE. We brought a Vegetarian Platter home and had it later for dinner- delicious.“

“Icecream truck came through my neighborhood. First time trying and will definitely buy again. The Mint Choc Chip Icecream Cookie was the best I have tried.“

“The food is incredible and the service is absolutely amazing! One of our favorite places in Asheville!“

“Any time we venture to Asheville (which happens often), we always make Nine Mile a priority. It’s a trifecta of awesomeness: great food, great service, and great atmosphere. We’ll always be back for more! 😋“

“Amazing! Yummy and delicious food ❤️“

“It’s our first place to eat every time we go to Asheville. They have a great local beer selection and oh that Prohibition Potroast!! I’m drooling thinking about it!“

“The food and service were fantastic! However, the reason I will return every time I visit Asheville is not actually food related. The owners fed their employees and their families the entire time they were shut down for Covid. The owner’s husband is involved in many global humanitarian projects. While I was reading the Cantina’s historical wall display, the researcher responsible for the wall came and spent about 20 minutes chatting with me about the area’s history. I was moved by life work of the people associated with the restaurant and will return in support of goodness in the world.“

“My daughter and I stopped in Mt pleasant location today for the first time ! It was yummy ! Can’t wait to go back ! The pork belly was off the chain !“

“Underrated for sure. Great food, great atmosphere. Prices were average. My only complaint was driving around quite a long time to find parking!! Most of the lots surrounding where four those who work in the area. Finally found a parking garage and walked about eight minutes.“

“Thank you for opening in our area. Best made subs in a 50 mile radius. Great staff. I tell all my friends about this place. Thank you“

“Great breakfast, friendly staff and fun atmosphere! Biscuits were amazing and the sausage gravy to die for!“

“So I’ve been avoiding this place thinking it was a chain , after many disappointing meals at Gypsy queen(used to love them they went down hill, and holy moly what a dirty kitchen) I decided to try Mr. Kabab, and I was not disappointed in the least bit. After talking with the owner you can tell he has a passion for his home food. He was a chef In the Middle East and everything is home made and hand made. Even his grape leaves take 10 hours to make. This is the best middle eastern food in town hands down… I wish he would change the storefront to better represent his quality of food. !!! Also the kitchen was very clean , which is a must for me .“

“An offshoot of Mamacita’s, Taco Temple retains the same focus on homemade Mexican eats. The offerings are a bit fancier than you might find at a typical taco joint but not to the point of pretentiousness (they also have breakfast tacos for those who are up early enough). While it occupies a smallish space, Taco Temple does offer a cool vibe, including a vintage Corona machine.

My wife and I opted for a trio of tacos plus guac to go. Our order was ready on-time, and one look at the homemade blue corn tortillas made us anxious to dig in. The tacos were generally tasty and delivered distinct flavors: the loreto (tangerine-pasilla shrimp) was spicy and tangy while the Santa Barbara (ancho-brown sugar rubbed steak) was smoky and slightly sweet. The panela (panela cheese, poblano, black bean, pickled onion) included too much pickled onion and too little cheese, however. The chips, guac, and tomatillo salsa were solid complements to the meal.

Taco Temple may or may not make you a convert, but it’s worth at least one pilgrimage.“

“Fantastic food, ambiance, and service…“

“We had a great dinner with a group of friends last week. The space is beautiful, the food delicious and the service excellent. The octopus was a special treat. Our pasta dishes were hearty and full of fresh flavors. Service was attentive and knowledgeable. Such great meal!“

“Never disappoints, always consistent service with amazing food. Our favorite Asheville restaurant.“

“The owner is super sweet, the coffee is amazing, and the atmosphere is enjoyable!“

“We spent the week in Asheville...Izzy’s was the best coffee we had by far. Thanks“

“Restarted, it with crab stuffed mushrooms and spinach, crab meat oysters. They were delicious then we ended it with two lobsters, potatoes and corn and also a salad. Everything was delicious and our waitress was so kind. She even cracked our lobster and took all the meat out of it for us..“

“Best cold brew and blueberry muffin I’ve had in a long time served by incredibly kind employees! ☕️“

“We are from out of town and love to try the local favorites. The food was fresh and delicious. The restaurant was unique and the service was friendly.“

“The food was wonderful. I would certainly eat there again when in Asheville.“

“Excellent service. I strongly recommend Mr Ralph Carico to those who wants to trade and invest in forex/crypto. He made over $3,400 with my little capital $500 While managing my account in less than 7 days. I couldn’t have asked for more! Contact him Ralph Carico“

“So, So, So good. The owners are really nice, but the food is spectacular.

It's definitely on my rotation of places I try to go to on a weekly basis.

The red curry last night was one of the best things I've eaten in a long time.“

“This place is the real deal. I came back a second time and we tried the spring rolls — honestly, some of the best I’ve ever had. We also shared the General Tso’s chicken, spicy beef ramen, and fried rice — everything was full of flavor and cooked perfectly. On my first visit, I ordered the GSW Rice Bowl and loaded it up with Korean BBQ pork, sweet soy, mayo, chili oil, peanuts, roasted eggplant, kimchi, pickled broccoli stems, carrot daikon serrano pickles, and bread and butter pickles. It was so good I knew I’d be returning soon.“
