50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Clifton

“Mauricio, From the moment we sat down, he was all smiles—happy, upbeat, and full of energy that made our whole table feel welcome. He wasn’t just friendly; he was genuinely fun, cracking jokes, keeping the mood light, and making sure everyone (especially the kids!) felt special.

He knew the menu inside and out and gave amazing recommendations—especially for the appetizers. You could tell he really cared about making sure we enjoyed the best of what the place had to offer.

It’s rare to find someone who’s not just doing their job but clearly loves it. Our meal was great, but the service truly made it memorable. If you get the chance, ask for him—you’ll be glad you did!“

“😍 I Love ❤️ their chicken and steak 🥩 tacos 🌮 and their Melanesa steak 🥩 sandwich 🥪 🥰❤️“

“We had a great dinner tonight at Happy Vegans. We were greeted warmly and offered a taste of their special dish kofta, which is a delicious mix of spices, tomato and bulgur. I had the happy vegan burger which was huge with three patties made from kofka, lettuce tomatoes and a large serving of fries. We were given mayonnaise and ketchup to dip the fries in. Baklava for dessert. I highly recommend this charming restaurant. Easy street parking.“

“Matthew 's Restaurant is 1 of the best restaurants in North NJ if NOT The Best. The food is always Delicious & Service is excellent. Beyond that, the atmosphere or aviance is excellent. The vibe & energy is first rate positive fun & culinary enjoyment. I believe that this fine dining experience is also driven by the owner Matthew who is usually in the restaurant greeting guests & helping out. When you visit Matthew's you'll have a great time and it'll feel like you're on mini-vacation from the stress of every day life while seemingly enjoying the warmth of family. It may be a cliche but it's definitely true. 10 stars ⭐ out of 10.“

“Honestly this is one of the best places I have been recently! I looked on a top rated place and found this one. It lived up to it's name! Sushi was fresh and delicious.

There were 21 of us all together and everyone was well cared for by server Lily and the rest of the awesome staff. I really love the unique atmosphere of the place -warm, classy and comfortable all at once. No boring old chain restaurant vibes here. Everyone had a great time. I would definitely host future events here.“

“I think that Rumba Cubana is so successful because, among other things, the staff is incredible and the food is delicious.
I have been to their different locations, but this past Saturday, I was in the vicinity of this particular one and decided to go for dinner. The place was packed and we had to wait a few minutes, but it was worthwhile.
I would like to send a shoutout to Matias for being extra accommodating. Thank you for understanding our particular situation and for finding us a table.
My friend and I had the chicken soup and the montaditos for appetizers. Then I had the arroz con pollo and my friend had the chuletas with rice and black beans. As always, the food was delicious, the portions were sufficient to take a little bit home for later and the service...the service is always magnifico.
I will definitely keep going back to Rumba and I recommend it highly.“

The ambiance Greek décor and music really transports you, and the service was friendly, fast, and attentive. Plenty of parking makes it an easy choice.

“Smashburger in Clifton offers a welcoming and lively dining experience. The atmosphere is vibrant, with plenty of TVs playing football games, making it a great spot to enjoy a meal while catching up on sports. The large mural of the New York City skyline adds a stylish and local touch that elevates the environment beyond a typical fast-casual setting.
The food is the highlight here. I ordered the Double Deluxe Smash, which was easily one of the best burgers I’ve had. The meat was juicy, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. The fries were equally impressive, crispy, crunchy, and well-seasoned. To top it off, I tried the new Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Shake, which I can’t recommend enough. A thoughtful detail is that they serve the extra shake in a metal cup, so you get more than just what’s in your glass.
Service was also excellent. My food arrived in under five minutes, and the staff were both efficient and genuinely friendly, adding to the positive experience.
Smashburger Clifton combines great food, friendly service, and an enjoyable atmosphere to create a standout casual dining experience.“

“Absolutely recommend Mighty Quinn's! We had them cater our son's graduation party for over 30 people two days ago and it was an absolute hit! Food was amazing...everyone was raving about how good everything was! And Vinnie, the manager, went above and beyond...from delivery to set up...to removal of all boxes. Above five stars!!“

“It's one of the most delicious restaurants I've ever been to.

It's easier to order if you can speak Spanish but the staff speak enough English that it's okay.

The special of the day is fantastic. I recommend the fish.

Parking: Street parking is easiest but you can probably park at the city lot down the street or at the post office if you have to.“

“I can’t say it has amazing food because all I have ever eaten was the fabulous fried chicken sandwich. Great atmosphere, friendly service and an incredible chicken sandwich!“

“Just moved to the area and ordered spontaneously thru grubhub. I ordered pene vodka with chicken. Honestly it was amazing! Price was great compared to other places I’ve ordered from. Portion was on point. I was only able to eat less than half and saved the rest for leftovers. They even included a bread that was so soft and seemed freshly baked. Can’t wait to go back and try other dishes.“

“Excellent Peruvian food! ???They don't take online orders you must call but the service is very prompt and courteous. Seco de Res & Chaufa de Pato are top tier . The owner and chef lady in the back do an AMAZING job. This is a place to def return 10/10. If you are lost then just get the mixed fried rice, rotiserrie chicken, Jalea,
Huancaina papa, Seco de res o pollo, ceviche duh ! .. these are sure hit the spot n then some“

“My Dad was originally from that area and was going there since it opened. He started taking us as a family and we lost him in 1989 at the age of 49. Mario’s is like hollowed ground for us and is the place we drive almost 4 hours to come to to be together as a family twice a year ❤️“

“Extraordinary food at affordable prices. Great speedy deliveries.
Even with inflation, the owner still gives you a large portion for the right price. The daily lunch specials are phenomenal. Hot food delivered fast.
The employees at Villa Roma are skillfully trained, courteous and friendly. Dining room atmosphere is very cozy and comfortable.
Great place for the whole entire family. ??. Not only pizza, the menu is huge. All Italian meals are made from scratch. A very wide variety of home-cooked family style Italian food.
I strongly recommend this restaurant.“

“Muy bueno todo excelente atención“
