Vegan Restaurants near East Elmhurst

“Addictive Wine & Tapas is a great place to go for an after-work drink, or for a light meal with great tapas. The wine selection is extensive, the service is great, and the personal attention from the owners makes everyone feel special.“

“This is a small deli at LaGuardia Airport that has basic airport foods. They sell drinks, packaged sandwiches, yogurt, water, chips, etc. I'm not seeing anything healthy per se, just the regular drinks and food found at airports. They are open early and easy to shop.“

“এই রেস্তোরাঁটি খুবই যুক্তিসঙ্গত মূল্যে অবিশ্বাস্যভাবে সুস্বাদু খাবার সরবরাহ করে। পরিষেবাটি অসাধারণ, এবং সামগ্রিক অভিজ্ঞতা অসাধারণ। দাম সাশ্রয়ী রাখার পাশাপাশি এত উচ্চ মানের খাবার বজায় রাখার জায়গা খুঁজে পাওয়া বিরল। নিঃসন্দেহে, এটি আমার অভিজ্ঞতার মধ্যে সেরা রেস্তোরাঁগুলির মধ্যে একটি। This restaurant offers incredibly delicious food at very reasonable prices. The service is outstanding, and the overall experience is wonderful. It is rare to find a place that maintains such high quality while keeping prices affordable. Without a doubt, this is one of the best restaurants I have ever experienced.“

“I can’t rave enough about my experience at Ras. I had great service and probably the best meal during my visit to NYC. I came for lunch on a weekday and the whole menu, including brunch, was available. Since they are 100% vegan, it also meant that I could order anything and everything. Can there be too many choices? Everything looked great, but my waiter convinced me to get the chef’s special kitfo. There was also a nice selection of NA mixed drinks, and I ordered the Crown Heights queen—watermelon, ginger beer, mint and lime. I loved every sip and every bite of my meal. The chef’s special was packed with flavor and different textures. Each bite felt unique from the last. Kitfo is typically a ground beef, and their version is made from soy. That alone had such incredible flavor like it had been nicely browned to build out the complexity of the dish. The drink was equally good. I could have started on a second meal immediately after finishing my lunch. Not because I was hungry, simply because the food blew my mind. Updated from previous review on 2026-04-17“

“The most incredible meal I have ever had. Thank you.“

“Great Italian food and a decent menu, not much choice but not too much. It's located next to Post Office 34 and is very trendy. The view and service are great, but it's noisy as there isn't much to absorb the sound. We ordered focaccia, roasted peppers and pasta. Everything is great and super fresh.“

“This was a fantastic experience! From the moment we stepped inside, the staff was courteous, engaging, helpful and knowledgeable. We had a party of 3, and ordered 6 dishes. Each dish came out as it was made and each dish was absolutely delicious. A person in our party had a gluten allergy which was no problem and accommodated with ease. We come to NY every year and this will absolutely be a place we revisit again and again! Vegans, vegetarians and omnivores alike will appreciate the dishes and be amazed with the taste! Highly recommended!“

“The wait staff and food were absolutely amazing.“

“Very impressed since they was decorating the place. I was passing by every day till they finally open and I desire to try the food, I was curious and also I’m not a vegan person. When I finally try that food I just got in shock. Super tasty, delicious, the Trinidad and Dominican Republic flavors- was so down the earth. So thankful to have them at the neighborhood, the service is excellent and Yesenia and her employees super professionals. The ambiance and decoration soo relaxing- I love the food and the service, how they welcome you, is hard to find a place like that. Highly recommended to everyone- vegan or not vegan- 🥗 the talent is there and I wish them success- nice location, sparkling clean - if you are looking for good food - this is your spot-“

“Had the recommendation from the Off Menu Podcast. Great atmosphere, great service and amazing ramen.“

“Exquisite food, atmosphere, and experience. 10/10 must try!!“

“I went there with my boyfriend and his father during a trip in NYC and we weren’t disappointed. My boyfriend had the kofta kobab which had a very meaty texture. His father had the wild mushroom kobab and I took the braised "beef". Everything was delicious, including the dessert (ekmek kataifi) which wasn’t too sweet, just perfect 😊“

“Perfect crew, perfect food! Many thanks to Piero and all his colleagues.“

“I took my son to Empire Steak House for his 15th birthday, and overall it was a great experience. The service was amazing, attentive, welcoming, and made the night feel special from start to finish. The sides, mashed potatoes and baked potato, were just okay and could've used more flavor, even with butter, salt, and pepper. But the steak... absolutely incredible. Easily one of the best steaks in the city. Definitely a spot I'd return to for the quality of the meat and top-tier service.“

“Great and delicious pizza, excellent friendly customer service and cool space.“

“Great place to chill� and enjoy the lovely autumn weather this time of the year! Love This place“

“Family Meal at Blue Hill in New York offers a warm, thoughtfully curated dining experience that feels both elevated and approachable. The menu highlights seasonal, farm-driven ingredients prepared with care and creativity. I tried several dishes, each showcasing fresh flavors and clean, balanced execution. The atmosphere is relaxed yet refined, making it perfect for a shared meal with friends or family. Attentive service and a strong focus on quality make it a place I’d happily return to.“

“I love green curry, if I could eat just one food for the rest of my life it's green curry so I'm picky when I try a new place and this place was INCREDIBLE!!! I inhaled this dish like it was my last meal and wanted more, and great service“

“So beautiful and so delicious!!“

“My first time having the impossible burger here today and it was the best decision I made . The tots had magnificent sauce that came with it and i recommend having the wuu sauce . This will be a regular forme starting today , the service here was definitely one to remember shout outs to Scott !!!!“

“Here's the review Spencer wrote for you: My family and I just visited to celebrate my grandsons birthday- we like to get a bunch of plates and share family style and this menu was perfect for that. You have to get mezze and extra bread (must try the kubane). We also ended up getting three orders of the shishbarak for the six of us, it is way too good! I got the salmon for my entree which was cooked to perfection and beautifully seasoned. Spencer our server recommended the silan and the cheesecake for dessert so we shared those and boy were they something special- I can’t pick a favorite! He brought us a candle and we got some great pictures. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough.“

“Food was delicious! Fresh and unique! Loved it all!“

“Great dining experience for hot pot.“

“This is an AHHHHMAZING place to eat! Huge, delicious menu and it's so great when I can get my faves and know the food is being made by people who care about the animal we share our planet with. Thank you for being vegan, Spicy Moon!!❤️❤️💯“

“lots of food for a good price!“

“The best vegan restaurant I have ever been to. Authentic, incredibly attentive and helpful staff, lots of options for kids who don’t want anything spicy, filling and delicious. I can’t wait to go back. And the vibe inside is great- really cool decor.“

“Never disappoints. Excellent food. Always packed“

“I am so happy that they have an SOS menu. It was great to be able to relax and know that the kitchen welcomes my dietary preference. Thank you!

It seems that nearly everything is prepared to order, and as a result if coming here you should be prepared to possibly wait longer than most restaurants for your food to be ready.
I do wish there was a way for the restaurant to communicate this to avoid problems with new customers who may be expecting quicker service.“

“Very nice atmosphere in the middle of the East Village.“

“We are so thankful to have Candle right by our apt!! Their Black Bean Quinoa burgers and Chickpea Burgers are amazing-we order them 2x a week!! Great soups, great kind staff, just overall a great neighborhood gem.“

“10/10 only amazing things to say!!

I’ve been here a handle of times and it never disappoints. The service is impeccable and the vibes are great.

Beef tar tar is one of my favorites out there
The leeks is incredible and a must
The crab avocado yummm
The egg anchovies salad is a must as well

For mains
The steak is easy and great.
People love the chicken it’s not my absolute favorite to recommend, would take the duck over it.“

“Been to CHELI three times now and it’s perfect every time. Food is delicious, service is excellent, and I love how much care goes into their food decoration. Nothing feels rushed. The whole place has a great environment too. One of the best in Flushing NY, no question.“

“I live in basically the middle of nowhere. Most food I eat is relegated to home cooking or traveling several towns over if I ever want to eat out. I'm visiting the city for a weekend. Oh my god I didn't know we were at this level. Genuinely some of the greatest plant meat food I've ever had. It's honestly a crime against humanity I have to go back and live in a place where this doesn't exist. Updated from previous review on 2026-03-01“
