50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Mattydale

“Very nice ppl will be bck again“

“Syracuse halal gyros food is 100/10… huge portions, reasonable prices, and absolutely delicious. They are open late which is great because there aren’t many options open late these days. When we picked up our order the gentleman behind the counter offered us a huge “sample” of chicken and rice so we could try their (new?) green sauce which was also delicious. I’d recommend this place to anyone and everyone.“

“Absolutely love this place!!! Great food!!!“

“I want to express my sincere appreciation to Katie who is a bartender and waiter. My sister has come to Syracuse to see me several times and we frequently visit your restaurant when she is here. Unfortunately I have developed some health issues and Katie was sooooo empathetic. We specifically ask to sit in a booth at the bar hoping to hear Katie’s smiling professional voice. She is an assess to your restaurant. Thank you so much. You guys are doing it right!“

“Wonderful menu, wonderful folks waiting and cooking - No downsides, 5 of us went and we all enjoyed everything we had and we will return.“

“Best service, best food, and a class A staff. I don’t care how many people are waiting for a table, you won’t wait long. Liz will make sure this happens.“

“Been going here for years. Some of the best diner style food I’ve ever had. Most everything is home made and the handful of things that aren’t are brought in from local stores. The staff is great, very accommodating and attentive while allowing you the privacy to have a conversation with your companions. Highly recommend.“

“Fast service. Excellent breakfast!!! Very good. Thank you so much for the great food!“

“Love this restaurant my favorite in the syracuse area“

Actually can’t wait to visit multiple time in between too!! Everything was exceptional from service to food. Love the comfortably spacious dining area also. Cannot wait to visit again!!!“

“Always great food and drinks!! One of must go to places when I am back in NY.“

“We went to Margaritas in Syracuse for a late lunch today. It was the first time we have been there and everything was fantastic!!! Great drinks and food and all of the staff was so friendly! Our server Alexandra was also very helpful, pointing out items on the menu based on what we were looking for. She even accommodated my request for a drink not on the menu!!!“

“I live between Syracuse and Rochester and was in Syracuse. I’ve passed by Apizza Regionale several times and finally stopped. I ordered an Apizza with sausage to go. I’ve heard of New Haven style and Apizza but have never had it. I must say I was pleasantly surprised. The crust had a slight blackening on the bottom and was still airy and tasty. The sauce was perfect as was the sauce. It was very delicious and will definitely be back again. I also want to say how great the service was. The waitress that took my order was very pleasant and professional. I had knee surgery a couple weeks ago and when I returned to pick up my order she carried it out to my car for me. Thank you Apizza Regionale for the great experience.“

“Always consistent great food and atmosphere. Burgers and other sandwiches are amazing!!“

“We chose this restaurant to celebrate after our courthouse wedding, and it honestly couldn’t have been more perfect. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt special welcoming, and just the right place to soak in such an important day. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel celebrated without being over the top. Everyone was kind, attentive, and genuinely happy for us, which made the experience even more meaningful. The food was incredible as always. It felt like the perfect way to mark the start of our new chapter together. This will always be a special place for us. We come here for trivia and have built great relationships with the staff. We’re so grateful we chose to celebrate here and will definitely be back for anniversaries to come. Cecelia and Kevin Roskopf“

“#1 spot in Cuse. Better Korean food than in LA. Better Korean food than in Korea (maybe). Idk what they put in the seafood noodle soup CHAMBONG, but I have gotten it for four years and never been happier in my life. Bulgogi, chicken bulgogi, kalbi, tteok bok ki, boo dae chigae, and the dumpling soup are all spectacular. The food is unbelievable. Everything is good.“

“Ruston’s is a wonderful place to eat. Food is freshly prepared, including a wide variety of hand made delicious deserts. The staff are all friendly and make you feel at home. I would highly recommend Ruston’s.“

“Excellent food. Meats and sauces are so flavorful and delicious. Even the rice and beans have a little something extra. Dishes are well portioned and fresh made. Tortilla chips and homemade sauce are perfect starters. The flan and ice cream are excellent ways to end the meal. Can’t wait till next time to try the specials!“

“amazing food and great service!!!“

“We were seated immediately even though there were a ton of vehicles in the parking lot. Had our drinks in less than 2 minutes of sitting down. Our food came in a timely manner. The waitress was attentive without being intrusive. The manager made a brief stop to see how we were enjoying our meal.
I had the Hibachi salmon with rice and steamed broccoli. Broccoli was a little too over streamed but that's my personal preference, otherwise everything was delicious. My partner had the French Onion burger that she enjoyed.
Great experience all around. My first time there. I'll be back!“

“Great food! Large variety“

“My friend and I decided to try this place because our favorite pizza place was closed for vacation. This is our new FAVORITE pizza now. The sauce was delicious and the veggie pizza was loaded. We will definitely be back.“

“Friendly and relaxed atmosphere, and the food is always awesome!“

“Stella's is one of my favorite places for fish on Friday. They have it fried, broiled or grilled. Recently I was there and ordered mashed potatoes with my fish. I did not specify without gravy. When the waitress brought my dinner I was upset because it had gravy. She took them back to the kitchen. When she returned it seemed that I had more than before. Unfortunately I am allergic to gluten, which was in the gravy. For the last 2 days, I have been having symptoms related to eating gluten.“

“Went to Nick’s on Thompson Rd. last night (always look forward to going there) and had a sausage, pepper and onion pie and a few wings. Great food, great owners, a MUST visit for all. (Open weekdays only)“

“The deep dish Utica greenza pizza was amazing! It was cooked just right. The service was excellent too!!“

“What a wonderful way to spend Mother's Day weekend! I love that they flat out say, we will be busy, and set clear expectations. Parking was a challenge but once we found it, we got on the list, they texted us when a table was ready and we got in, ordered, ate and enjoyed an amazing meal! Top notch food and service. Keep up the good work!!!“

“Great beer food and staff“

“Best place to have a party in event room. Maria is the best to work with. Responded very quickly to inquire of room for my father’s birthday celebration. Lots of choices for food and the pizza oven has a variety of tasty pizzas to choose from. Kim DeStefano was the best bartender, quick, efficient and exceptionally friendly. The event room was everything I wanted & could have imagined to celebrate my dad’s 80th. Highly recommend with working with Marie for any parties in the future. Thank you Maxwells for awesome food and venue. Cheers !!“

“Update (Spring 2026):
I’ve now been to Vietnam and Ky Duyen is on par with some of the best I had there and is even better than some of them. They continue to be my favorite Banh Mi in the area.
Their iced coffee leaves something to be desired for my taste though unfortunately. A big part of this is my preference for white coffee (bạc xỉu) and the salted cream coffee (cà phê muối). My favorite combo is to buy a banh mi and drive down the road to the newly opened Wake Up for their salted cream coffee.

Update (11/7/2023):
Finally got to come back as I had the day off from work and could make it up before they sold out. Banh Mi is still great, though I found that I very much did not enjoy the cold cut option. I’ve now had 3 (BBQ Pork), 1 (Roasted Pork), and 2 (Cold Cut) and would recommend them in that order. BBQ pork was amazing, roasted pork was great, and cold cut had me questioning if I wanted to finish it. Not bad or gross, just completely not my taste/preference. I fully plan on being back in the future to try number 4 (shredded pork) so I can figure out which one is truly my favorite and future go to.

Original:
Best bahn mi I’ve ever had, and the best sandwich I’ve had in a long time. Will absolutely be back.

As a heads up, if there is a line inside it will likely take a while, but it’s worth it.“

“They are amazing and the food is great! The whole family loves it!!“

“Our first time dining here will NOT be our last , food came fast hot and fresh , everything was a great experience and that is very hard to find these days so I will definitely be going back next time I'm in Syracuse, thank you to the staff“

“First time trying and this was amazing. I would highly recommend!“

“Just returned from one of the best shows of this still young year - Nachos and Blancos featuring Syracuse all-timers Los Blancos. Typically the 443 shows go for a little under 2 hours for many reasons; curfew among them. Not so on a Sunday afternoon! Colin and the band killed for 2 hours +, and those lucky ones (like us) in attendance got everything and more. Thanks, as always, to Julie and Co. for one more unforgettable experience!“

“Prices are great and the portions are…… too big! Just ask for a box. You won’t be disappointed the next day. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Fantastic diner with angels for staff, Carl’s Kountry Kitchen makes some fantastic meals, with prices so low I almost wonder if they’re making money. The customers are always friendly, a reflection of the refreshing attitude so commonly lost amongst today’s hustle and bustle establishments. I simply cannot recommend this place enough.“

“The food and service was great. Look forward in visiting again in the future!“

“I disagree 100 percent that the riggies here taste better than Utica. They simply don’t. The portion size was great, but the chicken was so cut way too small. The sauce just didn’t hit my taste buds the same. The cheese and seasoning on the saucer for bread is just odd. Not bad, just odd. My server never checked in to ask how my food was, but he did have a lot of tables. I probably would return and order something else. Overall, it’s worth checking out. They do seem to get very busy though. Parking can be limited.“

“I always get the Spicy Fried Chicken Bowl and it’s delicious! Plus the husband and wife who run the place are the sweetest ☺️“

“The food was amazing.“

“WONDERFUL FOOD. Reasonably priced. Excellent quality and service. Staff are always pleasant. Why spend 15-20 on fast foods, when you can get a real meal deal at GOODIES ?!?“

“Amazing place and food!!!“

“love dead night. EVERY FUKIN MONDAY“

“Typical take out layout so atmosphere is of that style. But their food is the best Asian take out in town always fresh, fast, & correct... And I'm a pain in the ass and always special order with changes. They never get it wrong even when packed and super busy“
