50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Hightstown

“It was our honor and privilege to be a part of a dear friend's B'day Bash last Sunday at Kochi. Dining at Kochi was one of the, if not THE, most memorable experience ever. We were totally floored by the exquisite food - and service - provided by Chef and Owner Mr. Jebu Matthew and his team. From the cool berry drink and amazing classic South Indian appetizers, to the numerous - and for us, many new - items that kept appearing in front of us almost magically during the main meal, served in the traditional South Indian style (on banana leaves), right through the delectable halwa and delicious jaggery rice payasam (desserts), we could feel the love and careful attention with which each item was prepared and pride with which each item was served. Plus, being served by Mr. Matthew himself was, in and of itself, humbling. He patiently explained the intricacies of each delicacy which helped us understand the complexity of the cuisine's varied flavors. To be actually seated (for hours) and served at the table greatly enhanced the culinary experience. We have rarely, if ever, felt that we have consumed a feast - but now, can proudly say so - because of Mr. Matthew and our experience at Kochi. This one-of-a-kind mesmerizing event will remain etched as an indelible lifelong memory. Thank you so much - for making this magic happen. Wish Mr. Matthew only the very best in all his endeavors !

Thank you, Kristine’s!“

“This is the perfect blend of cuisines for our family on a takeout night. Food is priced well for the quality and we usually get a mix of Sushi, Japanese appetizers and Thai dishes for the adults and American Chinese food for the kids as they have plain lo mein, fried rices and combinations which are better suited for a younger palate.“

“Delicious food and great service“

“The food and service are awesome! We booked their pizza truck for an upcoming party. Soooo excited!“

“Stopped for lunch with hubs and friends. We we're looking to share a pizza, this is NOT that place. Yes, personal size for dine in. We opted for sandwiches. 2 ordered the roast pork, broccoli rabe, sharp provolone and both finished and raved how delicious 😋 Other 2 of us ordered the cheesesteak with LTO, red wine vinegar and olive oil, I added light mayo. The rolls these sandwiches were served were fantastic 😋 The sammies were NOT "packed" with fillings like a cheesesteak joint. Nicely presented with homemade potato chips. Quality of ingredients is huge because I can't eat a lot. The red wine vinegar and olive oil was top notch. I use red wine vinegar almost daily 😋 I would definitely go back for the same meal, about 1hr from my home and worth the trip 😋“

“My daughter and I were in the area for an appt. and we came across Tino’s and I have to admit this is by far THE BEST Pizza we have ever tasted in our life!!!!! If you have not gone there- please do!!! They have excellent food and will not disappoint. Cheers!!!!“

“Full disclosure, i am a meat eater, but really love the vegetarian/vegan options they have here. I just had their vegan taco salad and could not tell it did not contain meat. It was delicious!“

“First time here- food does not disappoint. All of the employees are helpful and courteous. They get very busy but even with the volume and a little bit of a wait, they try to be as timely as possible. A lot of gluten free options, all allergies clearly labeled. We’re hooked and will be back!“

“stopped for some takeout. great food. friendly staff. will definitely go again when im in the area“

“I ate at the Monroe store today. I had never been at a Buubakoos before and did not know what to expect. I had the pork burrito and it was off the hook. The place was spotless and the service was spot on. The manager came over and introduced himself as John and asked if everything was satisfactory, and it was more than satisfactory. You would think John was the owner not just the manager, he cared as if was his own business. It was good to see that. I will be back for sure, my new go to place.“

“The crepes taste good and are reasonably priced for a shop in Princeton.“

“There is cafeteria here. Group of 37 people. 30 of them were middle school students from Na-Ju(나주) South Korea. Hungry and tired. Cafeteria staffs were amazing! Lady at register gave us our own check out lane and took orders and it only took 15minutes to feed all 30 hungry middle school students! Food was good. what you can expect from Ivy League. Most importantly staffs were amazing!!“

“Charming little cafe with excellent food and service 😊“

“I recently visited this Subway shop, and I was thoroughly impressed by the overall experience. The service was exceptional — the staff (Mr. Ashok) was not only kind and helpful but also attentive to every detail, making sure I had exactly what I wanted. The quality of the sandwich was top-notch, with fresh ingredients and perfectly balanced flavors that left me satisfied and impressed. On top of that, the cleanliness of the store was impeccable, which is something not often seen at many other locations. If you’ve been disappointed by other Subway branches in the past, this location will definitely change your perspective and set a new standard for what you expect from Subway. Highly recommend!“

“Best buffalo chicken pizza EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“BEST SUSHI AROUND!!!!!!! I’ve tried sushi up to 20 minutes from Plainsboro and I was disappointed every time. I found out that Hiro opened from a Clippers magazine and I literally couldn’t be more excited that it opened 2 minutes away from my apartment. Super clean, great music, nice decorations! Will definitely be returning. Best of all, no more complaining about how the sushi in the Princeton area is horrible!!! :) love love love!“

“We were looking for a Thai restaurant in Princeton and found this place with good reviews. We ordered vegetable soup, spring roll, Thai curry, and basil fried rice. Everything was tasty and we really liked it. The quantity was also good. The place was clean and neat, and the staff were polite and gave us good suggestions. Overall, it was a nice experience and a good place to try.“

I was especially impressed with their vegetarian options — plenty to choose from and everything tasted wonderful. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a delicious and comfortable dining experience.“

“The Gelatis are the best! Usually there’s a wide variety of ice flavors, lemon being my favorite!👍“

“Elite 5 delivers a dining experience defined by a rare level of intentionality and technical skill. What stands out immediately is the unique identity of every dish; the flavors are refined and balanced rather than overpowering, allowing the distinct character of each individual roll to shine through. It is clear that the focus here is on quality and craftsmanship rather than following a standard template.

​The Fire and Ice sushi is a true standout and a masterclass in culinary innovation. By removing the rice entirely, the dish highlights the pure quality of the fish, complemented perfectly by the texture of the caviar on every piece. Visually, it is stunning, but the taste is even more impressive, offering a sophisticated profile that I haven't encountered anywhere else.

​The attention to detail extends to the very end of the meal, maintaining a standard of excellence that is frankly unmatched. Even the ice cream plate arrived with perfect 90° angles, showcasing a level of geometric precision that speaks to the restaurant's discipline. I have never seen this level of artistry in a sushi restaurant before, making it a truly one-of-a-kind experience.“

“I recently ordered catering from Mint Restaurant and had a great experience. As a Princeton student, I received a discount with my student ID, which made the pricing very reasonable. The food was fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared, and everything was ready on time. The portions were generous and perfect for a group event. The service was professional and easy to work with. For both quality and value, Mint Restaurant is definitely one of the best in town. Highly recommended“

“Amazing sandwiches at great prices. Try the Jove or Sloppy Joe.“

“Super friendly staff. I loved my egg and cheese on a Keizer role sandwich, they serve breakfast all day long. Good trendy place to sit. Would recommend to others.“
