5 Best Vegan Restaurants near Lake Grove

“I've only eaten here once and I just have to rave about it. There are SO many vegan and vegetarian options! Near me, Bird and Bao closed. I thought I'd have to wait to go to Brooklyn to get an authentic one again. I was so excited about Yume! This place has them, and they are fantastic! The tofu was crisp, the cucumbers and mushrooms were fresh, and the quality was excellent. It felt so good to have a bao bun, and know how many options there are for next time!
My friend got a poke bowl today and repeatedly raved about how much salmon was packed into it, and that she was thrilled for her leftovers. They have extremely generous portions, which is great for when I get my own poke bowl/ramen. There are also many teas and drinks I want to try, it's overwhelming how great everything sounds. A coworker had previously mentioned how great the Ramen was too.
People at my job talk about this place all the time, and they're absolutely right! It was worth the hype and no matter your diet, you'll find something to love. A great staple to the mall, they deserve the best!“

“Our waiter was quick. Excellent customer service. The food is amazing here. 12 oz burger and Greek chicken wrap. Huge portions. Took home a giant brownie. Highly recommend .“

“I’ve heard people say that most Chinese restaurants are so similar that it really doesn’t matter where you order from. That could not be further from the truth, and Wild Rice is proof.

In fact, if you’re dieting, my best advice might be to stay away from this place entirely. Every time I go a while without having Wild Rice, I order it once and immediately want it again the next day and every other day that follows. It is ridiculously good, incredibly flavorful, and honestly a little too addicting. I even order it when I’m feeling under the weather. Maybe it’s all the flavor and the fresh, authentic Eastern vegetables they use, but somehow I always feel better within an hour of devouring it.

Even their Thai dishes are fantastic. They may be prepared differently from what you would get at a traditional Thai restaurant, but somehow you end up loving Wild Rice’s version just as much. Everything I’ve tried has its own flavor and never tastes like the generic Chinese takeout you can get anywhere.

Another thing that really stands out is the staff. Everyone is consistently friendly, welcoming, and genuinely seems happy to see you. That makes such a difference, especially when you become a regular because the food keeps pulling you back.

Finally, something I really appreciate is that you can see directly into the kitchen from the counter. The restaurant and kitchen are always extremely clean, which only adds to the experience.

So no, all Chinese food is definitely not the same. Wild Rice has actually created a different problem: once you get used to their food, you don’t want Chinese food from anywhere else.“

“The staff at this location is A1. They helped with a big breakfast order, got it for me and my team on time and without problems. I never ate at a panera until the other day but I will definitely come to this location and try new menu items! Keep up the great work!“

“The food was delicious and service was excellent.“
