50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Brooklyn

“Go to Olmstead & eat alllll the things! Delicious!“

“Great take on Lu rou fan (minced pork and rice), excellent scallion pancakes and awesome dessert (Tian miantuan) that was like a sandwich of sweet fried dough, golden sesame ice cream and condensed milk (plus cilantro and butter dried peanuts)! Great beverages as well such as the slightly sweetened Jasmine iced tea and Sanzo (lychee & calamansi) sparkling water products!“

“Celebrated my birthday here best experience ever hospitality was amazing“

“I have to say this restaurant was absolutely delicious!! So glad we tried the only Mexican Michelin star in New York!!!

We went here for our anniversary and were very pleased! Our reservation was for 9 and our table was ready exactly at that time.  Service was fantastic! Our waiter was really friendly and very knowledgeable about all the food items.  He answered all of our questions about flavors and portion sizes quite thoroughly which made our decisions easy!

Their tequila and mezcal varieties were very extensive and they had great cocktail options as well! For appetizers we decided to choose the smoked mangoes, tuna tostada, and the punta verde caesar.  All were so tasty and had such amazing flavor, we even ordered another tuna tostada!!  I would say we felt the mangoes were more of a snack/dessert and not an app but we were not mad about it at all because the smokiness they were able to get into the mangoes was amazing!

For the main course we went with the lamb and swordfish tacos (it comes with 2 each).  They are average sized, nothing too big or small especially since we ordered so many appetizers between the two of us!!  Both dishes were so flavorful!! I would highly recommend trying everything you have room for since the choices we made were bursting with so much flavor!

We chose the Oaxacan chocolate cake and the tres leches for dessert.  The cake and ice cream had a strong espresso flavor, maybe because I don't drink any coffee/espresso at all but it was still very tasty.

Overall this was a very affordable Michelin Star restaurant and we were extremely pleased with every aspect of our dining experience.  We would absolutely return to try more menu items and highly recommend paying them a visit if you are a fan of big, bold flavors!!

“this corner spot caught our eye at around 9 on a thursday with it’s red glow & cute sunken dining room that is visible from the street. the ambiance - warm and cozy. the service - quick and very personable. the bartender is awesome. the food & drink - perfect. got the spiked horchata drink n a birria res gordita, both amazing and still thinking about… ***the best fresh masa/tortillas pressed right before serving - all within view from the bar - dinner n a show. literally can’t say enough good things. excited to come back. :)“

“Service and ambiance are great here. Seating is a little tight resembling euro style seating, but it didn’t really bother us.

We also really enjoyed the house made cheese and the pork ragu, some of the other items were a little off but I may visit again someday to try it out again.“

“I love Le Crocodile for breakfast. Juan was super kind helping me with my tea and coffee order. For me, I love how calming and beautiful the environment is. Most of the all the staff ( Tak included!). I go regularly and enjoy it every time.“

“A lovely contemporary Michelin star restaurant in the hip neighborhood of Brooklyn- Nura offers a cozy and chic vibe, complimented by its fusion style menu.
Inspired by co-owner Michelle Lobo-Hawley's Indian heritage, you’ll find a good variety of dishes with a creative twist. I had the kerala egg curry which was supremely flavorful. Will be visiting again!“

“Excellent!!! Food, service, atmosphere 👍👍“

“Great steak, food will ready very quick!“

“Super unique meal! We love love loved the food here and really enjoyed everything we ate. One star down because another patron was clearly over-served and was being rowdy and loud, but was still getting drinks and none of the staff asked her to be quiet. When I’m spending this kind of money, I would have liked the overall atmosphere to be a little less like a frat party.

But back to the food - we hadn’t heard of many things on the menu but we were feeling adventurous and so glad we did! This is your sign to try things without googling them. Just trust this chef - they know what they are doing. Our favorites were the whipped mackerel and lobster tostadas. Both were so fresh and clean and light (but still filling). Good portion sizes for tapas style. Beautiful plating. Really fun and unique meal!

Wheelchair accessibility: Small spot with all high-top tables. Not wheelchair accessible.“

“5 stars are not enough to tell you how good this place is. We've been staying in the Franklin Guesthouse (hotel adjacent to Madre) for a couple of nights and decided to give Madre a shot - boy were we in for a treat! Firstly, shout out to Armando, who made us feel immediately welcomed with his warmth and energy! For food, we got the Frutti di Mare, Croquetas, Brussels Sprouts, Cornbread Madeleines (compliments from chef) and Chicken - massive MASSIVE props to Chef Bryan and his very talented team. To say that they cooked "well" would be the understatement of 2022. They absolutely blew our minds with top quality medley of ingredients, depth of flavor, and masterful execution in every way. Cocktails were fun and delectable, which added the perfect "pop" to the culinary rocket ship that Madre served up. Just when my wife and I were ready to call it a night, Chef Bryan and Armando were kind enough to bring out the Pot de Creme for us, which was the bow and ribbon on this very special dinner. My only regret of the night was not having enough stomachs to enjoy more of what Madre could serve up. We will definitely be back! Thank you, Madre!“

“Everything was fantastic—the pasta was perfectly al dente. Wen tried their Swiss chard with pine nuts, mezze rigatoni, spinach ravioli, and pappardelle with lemon. The Negroni sour was also excellently crafted. Their gelato are freshly made in house daily and not to be missed. The only downside (maybe) was the portion sizes—they could definitely be more generous on the pasta portions. But overall a great experience.“

“Ultimate Thai food. Be ready to bring the heat. Friendly staff and great food.“

“Delicious wood fired pizza with amazing toppings including vegan options. Wonderful, cozy environment and eclectic playlist. You won’t be disappointed!!“

“Delicious food I had in long time with exclusive tast of fruits herbs and meat“

“Food is yummy! My go to place in Brooklyn! Coda is excellent and the flatbread are also yummy! The Sangiovese red wine on tap is also nice! Highly recommend and make reservations in the weekend“

“Great food and staff. Damien was a pleasure to talk to. Great addition to the team. Best of luck to everyone“

“Go. Seriously. We went with a group of six for brunch and every single person was raving about it for days after. Hits every mark - food (first and foremost), service, ambiance. Only ding is that it's a bit hard to get to but if you're already making the trek to Greenpoint, consider Glasserie a must.“

“Chez Ma Tante in NYC did not disappoint! The cured smoked salmon was incredible – perfectly balanced and flavorful. And the service was just as impressive. Anna took great care of us, making the experience even more memorable. Amazing food, amazing service – can’t wait to come back“

“Nice and warm. The food was Delicious!!n definitely will be back!“

“Braulio our bartender was amazing, knowledgeable and provided exceptional service ?. The octopus and steak were delicious, tender, and had the perfect char. If you're lucky you may meet the owner Chris and Owner/Chef Gerardo who are warm and welcoming and great conversation ? Going back for brunch soon. The Mezcal sangria is chef's ?“

“It's a very cozy place. Good music, first class kindness and service. The food...well...wonderful, magical. Thanks a lot guys.😊“

“I grew up near this place. My mom used to always take us there to eat pizza and spumoni as the years went by. They just got better love this place ! Best place for pizza, spumoni and food! The best calamari I ever tasted.“

“So amazing and dont discouraged with the line“

“The vegan Chicago style hot dog made me realize I actually love hot dogs. This place can turn my day around because it’s incredible.

Vegetarian options: 2 vegan dogs.

Dietary restrictions: There are vegan dogs (Chicago and Chili), but you have to make sure to get the vegan bun as well. They don’t carry gluten free buns, but they will make you a dog with one if you bring your own.“

“MY FAVORITE PLACE IN NEW YORK. Vibe was so welcoming and warm. The servers were so helpful and personable. The food was out of this world. When we left, I immediately asked when we are going back and what excuse do we need to return asap. I’ve been around the world eating vegan and this restaurant is a SHOW STOPPER. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏“

“Had the chef's tasting menu dinner with two friends. It was consensus 5 ⭐ for the food afaict. One of the friends, who typically won't visit the same restaurant twice, indicated it was so good they would consider returning. They also added onto their list the sister's restaurant of Traif.

My favorite was probably the scallop risotto, closely followed by the caprese salad.“

“Super unique and delicious maple praline brown butter pancakes! More cake than pancake. The wait was not long to get a table and the service was prompt, professional, courteous, and didn’t leave us in want of anything. All of our needs were met. Food was prepared much quicker than expected and was all very good! I would definitely recommend this!“

“repas poisson excellent et canolli extra“

“Absolutely delicious food and drinks! I highly recommend the volcano wings for appetizer and colossal crab meat fried rice and the giant river prawn curry for entrees. Portions are great for sharing too!“

“Pretty standard flavor spot, slightly pricy if considering the quality. Things would go wrong but nothing really stands out.
They serve fast, clean fast, bill you fast. Understandable but it feels like you are rushed to get out.

✨Tea-smoked duck might be the one I would recommend. The flavor was mild but rich. Meat was not dry.

Dan-Dan noodles was good, a classic. I recommend ask for some vinegar to mix with.

The chive fried pancake was authentic.“

“Good and interesting food. Crowded and noisy. Good and very efficient service. Cocktail selection good but mine was ok. Daily special of fava bean hummus was delicious Chicken liver with hummus reminded me of my grandmother. Half brick chicken was very dry and not crisped enough with a soury harissa sauce. (Was it 1/2 brick or 1/2 chicken?). Limited dessert menu“

“Had a group dinner for a friend's birthday and absolutely LOVED the place! The ambiance was so cool and I could have stayed there all nice. Friendly attentive service. Great neighborhood spot!“

“Delicious food and cocktails“

“Minimal, bright and welcoming hand roll joint. This place never disappoints. They have delicious animals and the service is always excellent. This particular location has a lunch special with the West Village location does not have. Best hand rolls out there!“

“Came to a wedding and the food is absolutely phenomenal!“

“Fun indoor/outdoor dining environment and delicious food make for a nice night out!“

“Very good restaurant, highly recommended! !👍👍👍“

“I order from here regularly. Their biryani is probably one of the best in Brooklyn arguably.“

“Great setting, creative and sensual cuisine, great wine list.“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Modern Love. The staff was friendly, the atmosphere was inviting, and the food was incredible. Thank you!“

“I haven't left the restaurant yet but from the moment I stepped in I knew it was a 5 star. Our waiter was a star, recommended great wine, great food and great everything, he absoulutely nailed it! It was my first time here and I can for sure say that it's the best restaurant I've been in NYC by far. The food, amazing and beyond. The wine incredible. And the ambience felt like Rome!! Would absolutely recommend and if I'm in the city again, would come back in no time. Thank you!!!“

“Those in the know won't worry to much about 5 leaves not being rated a 4.5 or higher, why you ask? Because it really doesn't matter when the ricotta pancakes are THAT FREAKING GOOD! Seriously every 3rd person orders those pancakes. They also have a great Mocha and black kale salad. If you're not in the mood for sweet fair try the moroccan scramble which is perfect for something light but filling. I got the BLAT on my first visit and it was also good. Now if you're there for dinner been warned the burger is quite filling but it will be worth it even if you gotta waddle home.“

“My boyfriend picked this place to eat after our activities yesterday. I read the reviews and a lot of people said it was a dive bar. I wasn’t concerned because those be the places that have the bomb food. We both had bacon cheeseburgers and they were really good, and drinks were good too. We would visit again.“

“Some of the best ramen we've ever had. Wish we could have tried them all!! Fantastic.“

“The food was good. I had a E-Classic“

“Stumbled upon this spot while walking through town - the service was fantastic and the pork sandwich was the best bite of food I had in a while! If you’re looking for a cozy local spot with phenomenal food yet chic vibes, this is your place.“

“Food is amaziing!!! Service is great and friendly. Try it out you will not be disappointed!!👍“

“enjoyed my Sunday morning with relishing brunch!“
