50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Short Hills

“Food was hot, service was on point. We enjoyed the app, our beverages, our meals and dessert. Always happy with the food.“

“Guys, I stopped in yesterday to check the place out. I got to speak to Angie, one of the owners and I purchased a piece of Carrot Cake to take home. I had to take a bite the second I left the store. Just a taste. OMG! It was the best Carrot Cake that I ever had! So moist and full of flavor! I was very impressed. Sadly ... that piece of carrot cake barely made it to my car let alone back to my house! And you know what ... Not only was that carrot cake awesome, it was GLUTEN FREE. Now to put things into perspective for you all ... I own Ahrre's Coffee Roastery (Westfield & Summit) and -- way back in the 90's -- I owned the Common Ground Cafe in Summit. I have sampled cheese cake from countless commercial bakeries over the years. It was always my favorite type of cake and the ruler by which I judged the bakery. Taste Buddy is legit, folks! CHECK 'EM OUT!“

“I went here for a fundraiser they had about 7 different hors d'oeuvres all were good the waiters kept them coming .I ordered the duck lollipops , cheeseburger , watermelon salad , spicy cauliflower and the wings all were very good . The waiters and staff kept the inside and outside clean. I recommend this place if you want to rent for a private party or just go for dinner .“

“very entertaining n food was very good“

“I was kind of disappointed when we came to pick up our order that it wasn’t ready yet. Many staff would asked me and my husband what we were standing there for and looking like waiting for something, but not coming back to tell us anything about our order except the last lady who took care of it. We ordered the food online at 1:00pm for a pick up at 8:00pm. Isn’t this enough time to get it ready? We even generously put in a more than a reasonable tip although we’re not dining in, as it is the New Year, time to be grateful and appreciative. We did not mind the waiting but it’s the way staff was asking us and doing nothing. One more thing, it was good before we left we checked all the 3 bags of food for completeness because one main course was missing and one staff noticed us and we told her about the missing food. She went to the kitchen and came back in 5 seconds with the missing food. So someone missed to put it in the bag. The Cheesecake Factory is one of our bests but sometimes it disappoints us for a valid reason.“

“Had their food couple of times and its mouth watering.“

“We love soul bowls! Always a great experience and even got a discount for my birthday! I would recommend trying soul bowls !“

“Service by Abdul was great!“

“If you want fresh and clean ingredients this the place!“

“My first time going there and the food was good. I got the fried mushroom platter with wild rice, chickpeas and salad. I felt good eating the food. It wasn't greasy or had me feel like crap while eating it. I'm from Philly and was visiting Newark for the weekend, but when I come back, I will be going there again. #vegan #blackowned #italisvital“

“I had the Mushroom Oyster Burger 🍔 and I’m not Vegan but wanted to try something new………. It was absolutely AMAZING!!! Actually I usually never finish my food but I ate every bit of that sandwich…… if you haven’t checked them out you definitely should you won’t be disappointed 😁“

“Nice food and good customer service, only parking is hard to find.Had dinner food quality and quantity both were good.Resturant is small in size and has only 4 booth that I have seen.Nice and warm atmosphere inside. Open sitting arrangement outside as well. If all 4 booths are occupied then you have to wait and waiting area has only 1 couple seat, more than 2 persons have to wait outside.“

“Great service and fabulous food“

“Should be best best restaurants list in NJ!“

“I've eaten at The Capital Grille -Parsippany dozens of times since it opened. Lunch meetings, dinner with friends, and even enjoyed a fair amount of their wine dinners. This time we want to try something different: We just ordered seafood. No steak. And, we were not disappointed at all. Yes, we will still order steaks at Capital Grille, but it's also a great place to go for seafood.“

“It's already crowded with excellent reviews here, but it's all true. We went for a meal and had a food experience. If you are a foodie, if you love good Indian, this place is a gem. Make a reservation and let Sonny order for you!“

“If you’re in the Montville/Boonton area, you’ve got to check out Howards mediterranean Café and Bagels — absolutely top-notch! Not only is the food legit, but the owner Karim went above and beyond to support us during our soft opening at Montville Pickleball & Golf Club. Much love to him for the hookup“

“This review is for the Linden location. So happy to have them in town. Staff is very friendly and accommodating and the food is delicious!!“

“This place is excellent. I bought my friend from Japan with his family and was happy to take them to Cornbread for some authentic soul food. Needless to say my friend and his family loved the experience. They were finishing a road trip throughout the US and they thought the food at Cornbread was some of the best they had in their month long journery. The turkey wings were particularly good and I'm saying this as a person who is mostly vegetarian. Service was also excellent with attentive help and the servers were conversational and friendly with my friends and I. Bathrooms were also very clean. I wholeheartedly recommend Cornbread Montclair as a solid business and a great place for delicious Soul Food.“

“The staff are really warm and friendly and the food was absolutely delicious! I love their lemonade and the desserts do not disappoint! Celebrated my daughter and my Birthday and the staff made our day with surprise treats. Brought me to tears! Thank you to everyone at The Olive Bistro!“

“We always enjoy our meals at Indian kitchen and Grill. Whether we get take out or dine in, the staff is extremely friendly, the food is fresh and flavorful, the music is calming jazz and the booths are so comfortable. We have many favorite dishes @ we especially love the thickness & taste of the raita. We highly recommend this restaurant, and we also enjoyed it 25 years ago when it was Begum Palace. The owners make us feel like family.“

“The pizza and dessert were delicious and the service was even better. Highly recommend visiting if you are in the area!“

“Food was good; Drinks are very good“

“We have been coming here for years! Love the service, the food and the ambiance ♥️“

“I ordered the Nina Simone Smoothie: Mango, Key lime, Agave, Banana, Coconut 🥥 Mylk. Queen Latifah Tea: Dandelion. Lauryn Hill Bowl: Teriyaki Stir Fry, Sautéed Oyster mushrooms, wild rice & quinoa blend, onions, peppers, herbal spices, tossed in Coconut aminos. Do call in advance to check if they are open.“

“From start to finish, our experience was absolutely outstanding. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and every detail from the service to the food was top notch. The new owners went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, checking in throughout the evening and truly making us feel like valued guests. The chef is nothing short of incredible. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. You can tell there’s a deep passion and talent behind the menu especially if you’re a fan of French Mediterranean cuisine, which was executed to perfection. Highly recommend this gem to anyone looking for an elevated yet cozy dining experience. A must visit spot that I’ll definitely be returning to!“

“Amazing food, service, and atmosphere. 5/5“

“Everything is so delicious“

“Food is fresh & tasty. Staff are very nice too.“

“Excellent customer service from everyone.When I called to reserve the table Ashishbhai was so polite & send me confirmation text. When I went he personally came & show the table even though He was not working at my table. Pratikbhai is excellent every time. He ask the taste & bring the same taste food. Jambu was so good even he knows what I ordered last time & he brought same order I liked in past. Food is excellent, Everyone liked all the food . I really loved to go for dinner , I wish I have the same service in Paramus.Good luck!!!!“

“The food is delicious!
I got the original chicken with rice platters and one chicken mix gyro wrap. Excellent and momma is really hard to please. We’re transplants from NYC and with NYC being at the top of the dining out / take home capital it is tough for many States and counties to compete with the flavor and cooking styles easily found in NYC just around every corner.

OMGRYRO easily hits all the marks with the exception of the Jerk Chicken. Jerk Chicken flavor profile is no bueno in my humble opinion and that is because it doesn’t come close to tasting like jerk seasoning and can’t compare to true jerk style flavor.

Everything else is we ordered and devoured tasted great, high on flavor with decent portion sizes.

Hope they put the Jerk Season flavor to the chicken NYC style.“

“I held a celebration of life in the private dining room. In addition to the food being plentiful and delicious the wait staff were all excellent. I would recommend the Cloverleaf for any special occasion function as well as regular dining. They provided the best venue possible“

“Healthy food, healthy environment Taste great!“

“The best vegan cafe when you’re in the mood for a great scone and cup of coffee! They’re lovely people!“

“I really enjoy their food and service here. The food is always really good and is such a good spot to get all natural juices also! I recommend this place and everyone I've brought here enjoyed their meals. The Pulp Burrito which has quinoa is real good with the special sauce they have there and is one of the food items I'd suggest you'd try also. ?“

“The best restaurant in summit, nj“

“Wonderful food. Nice attentive service!“

“Slaps EVERYTIME!! 🔥🥰💦 #BadAndJuicy“

“It was a wonderful experience trying Lebanese cuisine for the first time. I love everything my daughter-in-law ordered. My favorite was the Old City Platter. I got to try different things. The hummus plate was awesom❤️‍🩹“

“Tried their dessert - love chips - amazing!“

“I wish I had discovered this place sooner! This is the best açaí bowl I ever had. It tasted so fresh and was very high quality. The customer service was also very friendly and attentive, even though it was busy when I came in. I am looking forward to going back and trying everything else on the menu. I highly recommend!“

“We went for the first time last Sunday. All I can say is wow. From the wait staff to the kitchen staff to management, everyone was incredibly friendly, unbelievably accommodating when it came to food allergies (they came out to talk about everything in specific detail to make sure it was safe before it was cooked and served), and the food was absolutely delicious!! I would absolutely recommend trying Marakesh out if you haven't been. They will be more than happy to go over the menu and explain anything you might not recognize or need changed because of restrictions. You can also call ahead so it can be prepped ahead of time for you. I will definitely be back again!!“

“A real gem of a cafe, nothing else like it around. From the kind and thoughtful owner to beautiful, whimsical ambiance and of course the most delicious Indian style light lunch fare and desserts! Prices are more than fair. We can't wait to return!!“

“Thoroughly enjoyed my experience last night at Ruth's Chris, especially the TasteMaker dinner where they had a custom curated menu with the wine pairings. Had some new dishes that haven't been on the menu before that I thoroughly enjoyed!“

“Very fun social vibe, special Birthday ritual, food was excellent, I practically licked my plate, service was attentive and the manager very active.“

“Decided to stop in after a tour visit to Montclair University and receiving a gift card for Christmas. Everything was delicious. We ordered brisket fries,cheese fries, smash patty melt, Montclair Blue Burger, build your own burger and 3 shakes. Everything was amazing including the burger buns (fluffy and airy). I wish they were closer to us, Old Bridge could definitely use a really good burger place.“

“Had a terrible experience today. They gave me the wrong sandwich. Tried to call them to send me a new one but all you get is a voicemail. Emailed them and even messaged them on Instagram and they never responded. So I was stuck at work all day without any food or any reimbursement“

“Had dinner there for the second time on Saturday night! It was very memorable. The food was absolutely fantastic. I had the eggplant with the Barata for an appetizer. It was so delicious and so tasty and my main course was the homemade linguine with lump crab and corn. We also got the meatball which was spectacular and then I got the cheesecake dessert which was one of the best cheesecakes I’ve ever eaten. I absolutely love love love this place. Can’t wait to go back and eat there again.“

“La schiacciata e’ ottima, l’ambiente elegante ed accogliente. Golosi i panini, i dolci ed i croissant!“

“Best Eggs Benedict in town!“
