50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Lincoln

“While visiting from Virginia, this was the one place on my list. We ordered one of each entree on the menu because everything sounded good. The quesadilla with beat hummus, figs, vegan feta, and pecans was truly a standout menu item that I'll be trying to recreate at home. We also had a Cubana sandwich, sweet potato mole enchiladas, and my husband wanted the burrito. I had hoped to have the nachos but they weren't on the menu this time. We still enjoyed everything and agreed the quesadilla was our favorite.

The horchata was also delicious. I think my husband ordered both of ours with a shot of cold brew. I think we might have missed out not ordering dessert. I didn't get to check out the ambiance because I waited in the car with a sleepy toddler and Pepe helped my husband get the food out to the car. I love creative and unique vegan food and Pepe's delivers!“

“Incredibly delicious food!“

“this restaurant is awesome. great food, very reasonably priced and a super friendly and attentive staff“

“Eat here often. Food is very good. Service wonderful. We all love the place!“

“A Place Where Kindness and Resilience Shine For anyone who reads this… they need our help. A stroke 3 months ago and back to work! Because “I can’t be homeless” please reach out for questions“

“As always had a great sandwich and great staff!!!“

“We ordered the special Trout Fillets, and it was excellent overall. The asparagus was the only disappointment. We also ordered truffle fries and brussel sprouts as starters, and loved both. Our cocktails (Rob Roy and Mango Mojito) were outstanding. Service as excellent. Friendly and attentive, but not overly attentive. The restaurant was quite full, and we were still able to converse and hear each other fine (and I can struggle with this). Whenever we have out of town guests we like to bring them to Green Gateau because we are seldom disappointed. We love that it is a Lincoln original and has survived so many years.“

“Excellent vegan comfort food! Not just for vegans and vegetarians! 😍“

“I’ve eaten Chinese food all over this country.Never better than Chopsticks Lincoln.Service absolutely superior.For a small operation they get customers served promptly.The staff are courteous and helpful in taking orders and delivering meals.Hard to imagine how they handle it with such an extensive menu.Cleaner than almost every restaurant I’ve been to. Get your meal here ,you won’t be disappointed.“

“Great food, very very nice people! Definitely try the combo platters if you don't know what to get and want to try a little bit of everything. The meat combo is plenty of food for 2.“

“Our food was delicious. There was a great variety of foods, each distinctly and carefully seasoned Alias, the manager, explained that fresh ingredients are prepared every day. (No foods are refrigerated for another day.) The restaurant welcomes individuals and groups at tables and in a special area for reclining meals. In all respects, this restaurant serves its customers excellent food in congenial surroundings.“

“It was my first time and I enjoyed it. The salad was good, but the chicken was dry though. Unless you want to be choking on the chicken, I would order the salad without the chicken. The grilled shrimp Alfredo is wonderful. They were generous with the shrimp, which I appreciated. The cheese curd is also great choice of appetizer. The complimentary croissant is nice and fresh. I would recommend eating it before it gets cold. When it's warm, it's nice and soft, but when it gets cold, it's very flaky and crusty and it does not taste the same. The staffs are nice and very accommodating. Overall, the place is 4.5/5.“

“Old school style little diner. Good stuff!“

“The hot beet sandwich was the worst meal I ever had there. The potatoes were hard, dry, and cold, the beef was good and gravy but the whole meal was cold. I've had really good hot beer sandwich there before & it was delicious but today something was off. I was very disappointed.“

“I found myself in Lincoln Nebraska at the end of a long day recently. I was parked on the side of the street and looked around to see where I could eat before a 3 hour drive to my next destination when I saw Honest Abe's burgers just across the street from where I was parked. Of COURSE I had to go try it and I was not disappointed. My burger and fries were fresh and delicious and the ladies working there were friendly. The signs, artwork, and general decor were fun - especially to me!“

“BEST IN LINCOLN. Routine breakfast customer and never disappointed. Relaxing atmosphere with nostalgic decor and no blaring music or televisions nobody watches. Eaten all the breakfast places in Lincoln over the years, this is one of the best and the prices are very reasonable. Always busy so that should tell you something.“

“Best pizza, salads, service in Lincoln! Maybe in all of Nebraska! I’ve been coming here since 2016 and this place has never let me down! 💯 recommend!“

“Best Kung Pao chicken I have had! Everything my group had was amazing, this is one of the best Chinese places in Lincoln! Large portions and great appetizers. The restaurant was clean, and had a very welcoming and kind staff. Highly recommend, you won’t be disappointed!“

“Loved the atmosphere, and the food was fantastic!!! Really hope to make it back again.“

“We went this last week for my spouse’s birthday and every last thing we had was delicious. Not only that but our server was great fun and played up the birthday thing in a fun and enjoyable way. We had cocktails, appetizers, entrees and desserts and all of it was fantastic.“

“Delicious sushi, delicious cocktails, good Mongolian grill with better choices than many other places. Nice atmosphere, great specials. They've changed from Happy Hour all day to a more limited schedule, mainly before 6 on weekdays. Possibly later in the evening as well at times. New on Tuesdays and Wednesdays after 4: All you can eat Sushi.“

“We had Super Taco cater my husband‘s Retirement Party & it was a huge success!!! Everyone loved their food & there was definitely plenty for the whole group with even extra for leftovers!!! The planning process was wonderful as they were so helpful with the menu selection, giving us samples to try along the way & assisting us in knowing how much to order. The food pick up went without a hitch & it was so easy to get everything laid out & ready to serve up to our guests. Thank you Super Taco for a wonderful & delicious celebration.“

“This place is a total breath of fresh air! I hardly ever go out any more because prices are always high and food is disappointing. Went to Piedmont Bistro today with a friend and honestly we couldn't stop talking about how good the food was. 10/10!! also very nice servers.“

“I can’t even begin to explain how happy I was with our recent visit to Momo. Our waitress, Gracie, was so over the top phenomenal. So kind, soft, and informative. Me and my boyfriend had our first date at Momo back in ‘21 and we are moving to Houston on Wednesday. So it only felt right to finish up our NE chapter where it began. The food was INCREDIBLE. We even sent compliments to the chef. My boyfriend is a huge foodie with a background in culinary and rates his pork ribeye one of the best meals he’s EVER had. I will always be so happy and appreciative of our trips to Momo. Thank you for helping close our chapter here. Gracie is AMAZING! 10/10 customer service and humanity.“

“Food was delivered quickly and was delicious. Will go to Heoya again!“

“We hadn’t been to Stauffer’s since before Covid. A friend told me the Honest Abe’s had boughten it so we decided to try it for lunch yesterday and everything was delicious! The rolls and biscuits were homemade. I had turkey dinner and it was real roast turkey, not deli meat. We had pie, too, and it was so good. The server was very friendly and attentive. We will definitely be eating there often!“

“Food was incredible. Best BBQ I’ve had in Lincoln & portions are very generous. I’m usually disappointed in portion sizes at bbq joints but not here. Especially for how good it is. Dylan was my server and he kicked ass. Was super attentive and friendly. Couldn’t have asked for a better overall experience! I had pulled pork and rib tips.“

“Always great food and exceptional service and staff. One of out favorite places“

“good food. can be hrd to get in. it is well worth the wait in line.“

“My wife and I go to this neighborhood favorite of ours for trivia and beer. We recommend the current craft creations Loma Lager, Chocolate Porter, and Overdone IIPA. The bartender is always friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The food from nearby Art and Soul is delivered to our table and is nothing short of fantastic. Highly recommended… we keep coming back.“

“We made reservations for 10am for a party of 6. There was so many great menu options it was hard to choose but everything we had was delicious and big portions. On top of that the waitress was super friendly, the atmosphere was fantastic and very reasonably priced. We will definitely make a point to eat here again when we visit Lincoln.“

“My husband and I stopped for dinner at Don and Millie's on 56th Street in Lincoln. The food, as always, was outstanding (they by far make the best cheeseburger in Lincoln...hand-formed beef patties with just the right amount of juiciness)....when we left, FOUR different employees acknowledged us. The worker sweeping the floor told us to have a great evening, and he thanked us for coming, the person working in the kitchen thanked us and told us to have a nice evening, the guy wiping tables thanked us and told us to come back, and the person at the order counter said goodbye and thanked us for coming. WOW! Good food and great service! You just don't find that kind of employee kindness and attention anymore, so Don and Millies now has a permanent customer with us!“

“Amazing food, hearty Mexican street tacos, burritos and enchiladas“

“My husband and I have loved going to Lazlo’s patio for 7 years. The food is normally great, not always hot, but the patio has been wonderful. Too bad they have decided to leave the Bird Nests hanging from the top of the patio. Bird feathers landed in our food, so we paid and just left. I love birds too but netting can be put up to STOP the nest and feathers from falling in your food. Yech!!!!“

“good salad bar, love their biscuits n gray, and you can ask for any type of pizza. chicken😍“

“Really good food would come back again. I highly recommend this place“

“The food is fabulous and the staff is amazing. Great service from the hostess, servers and all the way up to the general manager. we will definitely be back many more times.“

“Great place to have drinks and hors d’oeuvres“

“Amazing Burgers, Quick Service and Friendly Staff. Great place for lunch or dinner.“

“The food is simply delicious and made with love. We came here for lunch and will be returning for dinner.“

“Delicious every time we go!“

“We enjoyed drinks here on the outdoor patio. Each table has its own table top warmer which was really nice. I didn't try the beer and instead had the old fashioned. 1914 rye whiskey was really good in the old fashioned. I was told the beer was good, will have to try it next time.“

“Thank you so much for the cookies!!! I got them when they were still warm (honestly they are awesome either way!) and as always they are delicious. You're the best and your cookies are the best. Thanks again!!!“

“Wonderful food, great, inclusive atmosphere, friendly staff and great vibes. Will go again!“
