50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Lawrence

“Unbelievable! Great food, great fun, and the best service! Can’t wait to go back!“

“The BEST SERVICE AND FOOD!“

“Love this place. My kids can’t get enough. Amazing food and staff!“

“I wanted a classy night out and this place hit all the right marks. I am sensitive to ambience and found that the music and lighting were perfect - enough to create an ambience but not put stress on my senses - I could still perfectly hear my companion and see the food well.

The menu was nicely varied with some familiar and some more unique options (try the duck confit spring rolls.) The prices are above basic but reasonable compared with other upscale options in the area. I felt that we got what we paid for in terms of service, atmosphere, and food.

The staff was courteous and helpful. They were just the right amount of present, providing everything we wanted including menu suggestions without seeming overbearing and in your face at all. We did not have to wait too long for anything.

We went at a high traffic time and it was a little crowded. We had just enough personal space but not a whole lot. Definitely not what you'd call privacy, but we and everyone I saw seemed comfortable.

Overall I highly recommend this place, you will not be sorry.

Spent about $150 including tip for two people, full meal including dessert, no drinks.“

“The food and service are both amazing, so what is there not to like? 😆 But seriously the food and service is amazing“

“Excellent sushi, great service, great people.“

“A teen "jogger" waitress, gave me an attitude. I ordered some soup for take out. This waitress was angry and hostile. The soup was cold, and there were no crackers! The waitress needs some anger managment! Every time I go there, their service is dreadful. This will be the last time! Phooey!“

“CheLi in Flushing is legit amazing. That squirrel fish? Super crispy, sweet, tangy — straight-up addicting. The place looks gorgeous too, like old-school China but super clean and chill. Service was on point. Honestly, I’d come back just for that fish.“

“the best! I always go here for the best vegan and vegetarian dare“

“Perfect soup dumplings, other dishes tasty as well, great service! Highly recommend.“

“A whole vibe!!! From the moment you walk in, you are captivated. The decor, the music and the beautiful staff begin the wonderful experience that's about to occur. The food is exquisite in presentation and taste.i have visited the location in Forest Hills also but the experience in RVC is incomparable. (My daughter works near Forest Hills and frequented the other location but immediately stated she likex RVC just entering the restaurant) Iliana, Chastity, Julie and others, thank you for a great evening. Be back soon and every time I visit NY“

“I had two wonderful experiences at Mojo in August 2025, and both visits were nothing short of excellent.

On Saturday, August 23rd, 2025, I stopped by to ask if I could place an order in advance. One of the hosts, Emily, kindly explained that it wasn’t possible but shared a very helpful tip: the restaurant tends to be busy on Fridays and Saturdays due to Forest Hills Stadium concert events, while Mondays through Thursdays are much less crowded. She also patiently walked me through the vegetarian and vegan options, even pointing out which vegetarian dishes could be made vegan. Her thoughtful explanation convinced me to plan my visit for a weekday instead of the weekend.

On Tuesday, August 26th, 2025, I returned and was served by Delaney, who was incredibly friendly and energetic. She even asked whether I wanted my dishes served together or separately. Since I wanted to take a photo for my Google Maps review, I asked for both dishes to be served at the same time. I ordered the black bean burger (made vegan) and the Mojo vegan ceviche, along with a side salad instead of fries. When it came time to pay, Delaney helpfully explained that the tip was already included in the payment system, ensuring full transparency. I really appreciated that level of honesty and clear communication.

As for the food—absolutely delicious. Everything was fresh, beautifully prepared, and exactly how I requested for my vegan diet. Mojo is now my top recommendation for anyone looking for vegetarian or vegan options in a warm, welcoming environment.

If you love good food, great service, and a place that truly values its customers, Mojo is a must-visit.“

“The food that I got for takeout was amazingly good!!!! I got the butter chicken, garlic naan bread, and gulab jamun. I also got the mango lassi drink, and it was really good too! Service was great, didn’t take long at all for my food to be made. Pricing is decently good too, not too expensive but also not too cheap. 10/10 overall experience with everything. I will come back here again for more takeout, but next time I’m trying the chicken biryani for sure!“

“Vegetarian options: Hamburguesa Vegetariana

Kid-friendliness: Si, es ideal para niños, porque es al aire libre y tienen libertad de movimiento, hay buena musica y mesas amplias.

Wheelchair accessibility: Si, totalmente accesible para cualquier tipo de sillas de rueda.“

“Genuine Ramen with pork broth that’s seasoned to perfection. 5 ⭐️ Well One YouTa！“

“I love Annam Brahma. I’m blessed to live nearby. The food is delicious, and the desserts are to die for.

Vegetarian options: Masala dosa is my favorite. It’s like a potato pancake and gluten free. Then there is the chapati roll up with lots of cooked vegetables inside and a salad. The taste is indescribable, and some of the dishes, if requested, have a touch of Indian spices.

Dietary restrictions: I am happy that they have many gluten free options. Annam Brahma has only vegetarian food. The desserts are homemade.“

“Fish tacos and baby corn is yummy 😋“

“It is a business that cares more than just doing business. Loyd and staff care about helping people in the community. The food is great, the Beer is cold and the staff are friendly. What more can you ask? (Rhetorical question lol)“

“I've been to a lot of hotpot restaurants in the city. BeiJin Hotpot is a very average hotpot place. It's good, but hotpot is always good. Nothing exceptional for the price. The meat was good, maybe if we ordered different types of meat we would've had a better experience. There's nothing wrong with our dinner; we were just a bit disappointed. All in all, for the price range there are better places to go to.“

“My husband and I just ate at the Commack location last night. What a treat! Food and drinks were fantastic and our bartender Gershon made it such a fun and memorable experience. We will definitely be back!“

“If you’re looking for a vegan spot that tastes even more delicious than a non-vegan restaurant then this is it! As someone that eats meat, I’ve visited the restaurant multiple times and the food slaps each and every time - I promise you won’t miss the meat on your plate or in this case your box. It’s delicious, affordable and the service is great too!“

“The local TGIFridays I had been going to for 10+ years closed down. I decided to travel abit further out to go to Friday’s “one last time.” But my server Fabia changed my mind. She was friendly and funny. Told me about recent updates to the menu and the food was as good as always. My experience made me realize that traveling a bit further wont be so bad after all.“

“Food is amazing…Comfort food at its finest!!“

“Food is amazing ten out of ten👌“

“I great food and service. High quality land authentic.“

“I recommend everyone that requires excellent pallet for their dining pleasure, service that is second to none and great mixology, then Have It Haviland’s Way“

“Great Experience ~ Nice Atmosphere, Fabulous Food and Staff , we will be back !“

“My sister and I have been to this place and ordered oyster pancake, stinky tofu, beef noodle soup, and many others. The food was wonderful, and the service was fantastic. The atmosphere was that there were people in there too, waiters were busy cleaning the tables, and others.“

“We have been taking out from Elegante for as long as I can remember. Great food Great everything. While joking around , we promised to buy our workers a pepperoni pizza when the Mets win the series. So we called up and asked and Elegante delivered!!
A LETS GO METS pepperoni Pizza
Thank you from
T&M auto parts“

“Stopped in for a gyro. As I was waiting I read the write ups about the restaurant and the owner. My hopes were high...and OMG the gyro was heavenly!!!“

“My daughter had her sweet 16 there and the place and service was amazing. Food was great! Phil and his staff were awesome. They were very attentive always made sure we had what we needed. I would recommend WM to anyone looking for a formal event,“

“Sashimi新鮮，龍蝦🦞5食好味，服務非常好！👍🏻“

“It is really good good with good quantity Very friendly staff and good at explaining their menu Must try“

“All vegan except for fish, which is kept on a separate steam table. The food is all pre-made and kept hot on a steam table, so service is quick. The service is extremely friendly, and the workers are happy to explain the dishes to you. They are also knowledgeable about what is soy-free/spicy/etc. The medium plate was $16.50 and the food is so good that you will think about the meal months later. It was worth every penny. I cannot wait to go back!“

“Everything is great. Coming here over 25 yes. One thing I noticed who's overall incharge he is no Tony. And never will be. Stained tablecloth oil bottle on table dirty and greasy. Dirty windows. Tony would never have put up with that. I also miss his cooking. It's the little things. But Tony would never put up with this. Everything had to be perfect.“

“Our favorite tapas place. This evening we had the short rib bruschetta, the meat melts in your mouth. The truffle fries are amazing as always. The funghi pizza was delicious! Our server Eddie was attentive without being overbearing. A+ as always.“

“I had an incredible experience at Smash Burger New Hyde Park location! Lumi, went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect. Her professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail were unmatched. She made sure all my questions were answered and that I felt truly valued as a customer. The entire staff was fantastic, but Lumi’s leadership really stood out.“

“The soups and quinoa falafel 🥙 are out of this world . Mouth waters just thinking about next time I will be eating these items“

“Great service and Pizza to die for. My favorite spot for Queens“

“A quaint and locals-favorite Thai restaurant serving prime dishes. We enjoyed every single dish that was brought to our table. The portions are plenty to share around the table: we had a party of four and ordered 2 entrees, 3 appetizers and a dessert.
The Branzino is the highlight of our dinner, which came with a grand presentation. Fish tasted clean and a hint of sweetness—delectable. We also recommend the Veggie Curry Puff, a savory and flaky goodness. As for dessert, we opted for their second best, Banana Pudding with Ice Cream since they were out of Mango Sticky Rice. Still a great choice!
Highly recommend to bring a few friends and family here :)“

“What a great find!!! Place was cool inside, food was yummy, we liked it a lot. Staff were friendly and nice. We will definitely go back.“

“I've never written a review before but after ordering from Knish Nosh, I had to. I've never in my life tasted such amazing food like this and to be honest I'm very critical and hard to please when it comes to food so like always I was waiting to either be let down or not that impressed but I was shocked I live in the City and I order from these guys 2 sometimes 3 times a week. I'm trying to get in touch with the owner, I'm willing to invest in Knish Nosh opening in the City! Simone E“
