41 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Lansing

“I stayed here at the Rogues Harbor Inn in a beautiful room in March with my daughter. We absolutely loved the place. The owner paid attention to detail with the pictures, furniture, room decor, etc. The place was so inviting! There was a most beautiful “ surprising” breakfast room when we opened the double doors to go in for breakfast! ( You will see when you go there… I don’t want to ruin the surprise)… Maybe my daughter and I are silly about things like this but our mouths dropped and we couldn’t stop smiling… Not to mention the best breakfast…Oh and there is a bar attached to the inn that you could only get back into the inn with your key card… The bar was a quiet bar, with great food and service, and we were so happy to get food after a long day of travel without getting back into the car! The history of this place was just so interesting, the place was impeccably clean and the owner was wonderful. We loved this place so much…5 stars all the way.. in fact we need to make another trip back soon!“

“We just had the best time! Capped off our Christmas Eve shopping at Rogues. Food was great! Crispy wings with mixed garlic parm and medium sauces and their steak fries! Nice beer selections and FANTASTIC service! Thanks for a great experience!“

“I grew up in New Rochelle, NY and thus got to go to NYC quite often. For me, NYC pizza can't be topped. This place and Franco's in downtown Ithaca are about as close to NYC Pizza as it gets without actually Being NYC Pizza!

A couple of bonuses here are:
-the house salad always has beautiful, fresh and crispy lettuce (I've experienced much of the opposite from multiple pizzarias out here) as well as the best variety of fresh veggies to go along with it
-the portions of the Tiramisu are for one, delicious but also Generous. Especially for $5!

Occasionally, they may be understaffed and there may be a wait. Stay patient and kind - it's worth the wait!“

“Fantastic Restaurant!! A must see and delicious healthy cuisine!!!“

“Me and my boyfriend had a great time! Food was amazing“

“We both really enjoyed the pizza. Love the crispy crust too! Toppings were fantastic! We will definitely need to come back! We'll spread the word!!!“

“Enjoyed lunch here with my husband. Neither of us are vegan but we really enjoyed our meals. Quick service in a cute and clean atmosphere.“

“Such a little gem in Ithaca Commons!!! Our son brought us here on the graduation weekend as this was his most favorite and most visited restaurant during his 4 years at Cornell. And boy was it worth it! Everything we got was super flavorful. Our server Shell was attentive, courteous and made our time there special. Do not miss this place if you are in the area !!!!“

“We love the Milkstand! It's a locally owned and sourced restaurant with a wide variety of choices on the menu - all of which are available all day. The wait staff is always very good, our server today, Jennifer, was definitely a five-star server. Friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Just a great place to go!“

“We stopped in while vacationing, and found the facility very beautiful, the wines very good, and the staff friendly and knowledgeable. We would highly recommend anyone in the area visit this winery!“

“Great group of people, that attracts even cooler customers.“

“Fantastic food! We sat at the bar for lunch and it was amazing service. Highly recommend!“

“Tonight I placed a delivery order and it was fabulous. I ordered the fried haddock dinner with penne pasta and tossed salad. The fish was cooked perfectly,( Not greasy at all)., and the portion was very generous. The Penne pasta was. Also delicious. Delivery was quick.. This is one of My. Favorite. Take out places. Can't go wrong!.“

“Been coming here for years! Highly recommended!“

“This winery in downtown Ithica is in a beautiful building and has a small wine museum inside. The owner is so passionate and knowledgeable about the history of wine and winemaking. The tasting menu is small but wonderful with some off dry wines and dessert wines. I enjoyed the experience completely and did not leave empty handed.“

“It was all perfectly delicious. Everyone in my little group was very much satisfied. The mozzarella stix are simply something you just have to go get to understand. All the food was delicious and the service was spot on. Very attentive. I recommend anyone and everyone that likes a nice atmosphere for dinner to go check them out. Thank you to our server and the cooks. Yummy 😋🤤“

“The Rook is always a must-visit whenever we’re in town! The menu is full of flavorful dishes, and their cocktails and beverages are equally impressive. The atmosphere is inviting and lively, making it a perfect spot for any occasion. The staff goes above and beyond - Manny in particular is friendly, attentive, and a joy to chat with. We can’t recommend The Rook enough for great food, drinks, and an unforgettable experience😍🙌“

“Went with a group of 4 Freshmen college students. All the entrees and the pizza were really good. Good portions. Friendly service, it was very busy, but the server did very well while tending to several big tables at the same time! Will definitely be back.“

“My boyfriend and I went here together for the very first time and had an amazing experience. The food was fresh, the service was quick and our waitress was very kind. The only drawback to our experience was the manchild in the restaurant when we arrived. He was sitting at a table with 2 others dining in as we were, and decided that screaming at the waitress, the chef, and 2 other employees was an appropriate course of action after there was a misunderstanding when he and my boyfriend ordered something similar and the manchild was accidentally brought the wrong dish. With an air of not so subtle racism, he accused them of doing it on purpose, and demanded all of their meals (his as well as his other two very unfortunate dining companions) be completely comped, to which the other unfortunate people dining with the manchild, all completely horrified of his behavior, paid their tab and wanted to leave quickly. The employees at the establishment handled the situation SO professionally and immediately did everything to remedy the situation, which made our experience there even better. We ordered food to go, and will definitely be recommending this location to others and returning here our next time in Ithaca. Hopefully manchild will stay at home and cook his own food next time- and again- kudos to the lovely staff at Saigon!“

“great pizza, my sister n I loved it“

“Terrific menu ,service portions everything was delicious will return and bring friends.“

“Had a great time. Off the Rails was great. Drinks were superb. We met another woman from Glasgow, Scotland (my wife's hometown). The bartenders were top notch.“

“Best latin American food in Ithaca! Their new bar has the best margaritas!“

“I’m looking back now, no longer in Ithaca, and Xi’an is one of the places I miss most. She’s the love of my life. Amazing for casual dinners and catch up with friends. I’ve made many great memories here…“

“Had an excellent dinner with great service on a busy evening. Fantastic! Thank you, Sunny Days of Ithaca“

“Just had this for the first time the other day! It was delicious and the people were soooo nice! Food was done quickly and a good price. My favorite was definitely the chicken tikka masala done spicy! Yum! 👏👏👏“

“Absolutely Outstanding! Will definitely come again when in the area.“

“Las pizzas más ricas que he probado!“

“I had the lemon artichoke pasta . It was excellent along with the service !“

“Just remember this simple equation: You + Press Cafe = Happiness. My strawberry matcha was delicious and Steven and Lexi are super cool and kind. I am from Ithaca but live in PA now and make it a point to stop here every time I’m back home! 💚🫶🏼 Plus I got a sweet hat there, too! ✌🏼“

“A surprisingly sweet café tucked inside the Cornell campus store. The coconut and pistachio macaroons were delightful — chewy, sweet, and full of flavor. Chocolate croissant wasn’t the fluffiest but still tasty, and the shortbread cookies were simple and satisfying. It’s a lovely, cozy corner to snack and study, surrounded by tributes to Cornell’s literary icons (Carl Sagan and Toni Morrison watching over you!). Plus, the prices are student-budget-friendly.“

“Wonderful Food- Just Ask That They Be More Realistic About Prep Time.Their sushi is prepared well and the best deal in town. But you may want to double the time they give you for pick up orders. It's possible that they don't want to tell you the realistic time because it will sound too long. We ordered the Sushi for Two (which is easily enough for four-- and we have big appetites!) It was beautifully prepared-- but they told me 25 minutes and it was closer to an hour. Double the time, and then you will be very happy with this place!“

“Graduated from Cornell in 2009 and I still think about my go to BLTease with Ginger Miso dressing 😂 So glad to see Temple of Zeus is still going strong and has a social media presence!“

“This is truly a hidden gem! They offer lunch specials from 11:30 AM to 3:00 PM, with a choice of 3 dishes + soup or 2 dishes + soup. The food is always incredibly fresh, and there is a great variety of dishes with both meat and vegetable options.

What I love most is that there are no restrictions on which dishes you can choose — you can freely mix and match anything you like. That flexibility is such a nice touch!

I ate here throughout an entire semester, and now that I’ve graduated and moved away, this is one of the places I miss the most. I genuinely want to recommend it to my friends because it deserves more attention. If you’re looking for delicious, fresh, and affordable comfort food, you should definitely give this place a try!“

“I have always loved spicy Asian, but last night was a super great night for them. We got the Fish in chili oil, Mapo tofu, Singapore noodles, sautéed bok choy, Steamed dumplings and sautéed spicy garlic string beans. All five of us eating were in absolute heaven. Because everything tastes like Sysco food these days and is so expensive I never go out to eat anymore except here (and Poke LAVA). Such a treat and worth every bit of money. I haven't enjoyed a meal this much in forever. I wish I could eat this multiple times a week. 10 stars“

“Great Ethiopian food made as per African cuisine snd served by friendly staff“

“Went here for my daughters 12th birthday with some extended family so there was 7 of us and the hibachi experience was just amazingly fun here at Sumo! I highly recommend! Thank you staff and cooks!“

“Wonderful, friendly staff and great food. Excellent prices and location - close to Ithaca Commons.“

“What a beautiful experience. We arrived for an early dinner after a long hike (Buttermilk Falls). Our dogs (2) received the best welcome!!! A lovely big bowl of fresh cold water and bacon appetizer for them!!! And to top it off, our food was excellent! Staff were lovely!! Our server, Gina, made our visit very warm and welcomed!!! Will definitely go back again!!! 🥰“

“The NYS Orchard Burger is beyond amazing! My go to when I’m in town!“

“The sandwiches are actually quite good. I like that it is open for a long time so if I miss the usual lunch time and can still grab something to eat. Also there is rarely much of a queue so it is perfect for something fast. The Big Red Barn also has sandwiches but it takes them longer to make them, in my experience.“
