50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Middle Island

“Me encantan las quesadillas mexicanas de hongos con queso!!!! Super rico todo!“

“There used to be a Mongolian grill just like this near me in FL and my family loved it. It was a little fancier than this in atmosphere, but the food and grill were exactly the same. Happy to have it in town. I was surprised on a Friday at 8pm my son and I were the only people in there. Food was great, buffet was clean and stocked, staff was friendly. The broccoli on bar was clearly frozen and I didn't have high hopes, but tasted perfectly good when cooked up with everything else. Only complaint, it was dead quiet which was a little weird. No music playing or anything.“

“Fantastic authentic flavorful food“

“Went with gf had great time from the pretzel croissant to the amazing flowerless cake everything was delicious. Has great view of port Jeff. Staff is friendly Deff going back. And offer seasonal menu“

“I haven't eaten here in months, I took my nieces to check it out. The food was fresh and delicious as I remember. My nieces loved the food and commented how tasty the chicken kebabs were. Better alternative to Chipotle especially if you love Mediterranean food. I highly recommend this place.“

“I can not believe that this restaurant has been here on Main Street in Port Jefferson Village for over 20 years and I never ate there!!! This is my new Favorite place to eat. The food was exceptional and good size portions. The pita bread they put out on the table was so delicious I could have made that my meal. The service was extremely attentive and so personable. The Owner came around greeting everyone and made us feel like we were all family having dinner together. I am looking forward to my next visit.“

“We love Wings. The food is great. Staff very friendly. Its a nice cozy place to have breakfast“

“What a spectacular hidden gem of a restaurant! I'll go anywhere for a good duck breast, this place absolutely delivered 110%. Right amount of char, the seasoning, and it was cooked to perfection. Smoked salmon and burrata apps were delicious. We couldn't be happier with the very attentive service, quaint atmosphere - and the food was really on point for such an unassuming location. Also, the hot rice pudding with golden raisins was fantastic, as close to grandmas recipe as I can remember coming across! Keep up the spectacular work!“

“Just got this delivered and oh my god- phenomenal! I normally don’t write reviews but I had to shout from the rooftops how great everything was- the lo mein, chicken and broccoli, and wonton soup was so tasty and fresh. I got dinner for my man and don’t normally enjoy Chinese food as much as he does, but this blew me away! Wish I could give more than 5 stars ✨“

“We've been coming to Orto since it opened, and have brought family and friends several times. My husband proposed to me while we dined there four years ago and we recently went back to celebrate our anniversary. Every meal has been wonderful.“

“Amazing company with awesome food. Also they are incredibly generous with supporting our First Responders!!“

“I was brought here for my birthday highly recoommended fantastic.Will be back“

“Unassuming restaurant from the outside. Big mistake to drive on by. Just an exquisite meal we had. Wish I had a photo to share, but gobbled it down quick. Lovely meal from first welcome to last bite.“

“Mac and cheese add bacon and panko chicken 😲 SO good! Huge portion as well“

“Top notch sushi, the best prices I have seen for the quality. I’ve been ordering from Kira Sushi since about 2021, their quality has been consistent and their menu prices haven’t raised drastically like everything else does.“

“Hı we had great ıftar thanks for good food“

“Visited this restaurant after show at Bellport Playhouse. Very nice inside and the service was amazing. My husband enjoyed his Filet Mignon, he loved it! My meal on the other hand, chicken della casa was not good at all. The chicken was so bland I couldn't eat it. I should have sent back but didn't by that point I lost my appetite. I did order the dessert tiramisu which was really good. I would go back but next time I would try another dish.“

“Wanted to give a huge shout out to the Tap Room (Patchogue) (specifically the Patchogue location). We were invited to a family party, buffet-style. I reached out to the restaurant via email, because I wanted to make sure they could accommodate my daughters food allergies -- eggs, soy, sunflower seeds, tree nuts and peanuts, or I would plan ahead and pack snacks she could safely eat instead. The Culinary Director, Joseph Walsh, called me the next day. He spoke to me for awhile, went over her food allergies, made some suggestions, and assured me that he would come up with something she could safely eat. The morning of the party, he sent me an email to confirm we were coming and his suggestions for a safe meal (rice and beans sauteed with bell peppers, chicken cutlet w/ no egg, and a mixed fruit salad). I emailed him back that just rice and beans and the fruit salad would be fine, because she doesn't eat chicken. He emailed me back, concerned that rice and beans and a fruit salad wouldn't be enough, but I assured him it would be fine because she's only 7 and has anxiety over trying new foods at restaurants (understandably), so sticking with rice and beans and fruit salad, which she's comfortable with, would be perfect. At the event, Joseph told my relative that he wanted to talk to us, and when we arrived, he came to introduce himself, told me that he was making sure everything was prepared separately and would be ready for her shortly. Absolutely fantastic service. We truly, truly appreciated all his care and effort, because that's sadly not the norm most of the time when we try to eat out. Thank you Joseph at the Tap Room in Patchogue!“

“Went here for brunch today for first time. Friendly staff!! Atmosphere was great! Our waiter was very friendly made us feel good from start to finish. Food was very good! Thank you for being the great place we hoped for. Our waiter was Danyeal, very nice young man!!!“

“What a delicious meal. Drinks were strong, service was superb. We can’t wait to come back.“

“Lily’s is the BEST Chinese restaurant in Suffolk. It’s the only place that filled the void of flavor and freshness after moving here from Queens where there’s an abundance of amazing Chinese restaurants. We’re so glad we’ve discovered this gem.“

“Catch Oyster Bar hits that sweet spot — cozy, unpretentious, and always buzzing with good energy. Their martinis are dangerously good, the fries are perfection, and the blackened tuna wrap? Fresh, bold, and downright addictive.

It’s the kind of spot that wins over everyone — from the preppy Williamsburg crowd to the shee-shee Hamptonites. Easygoing vibe, great food, and a bar that knows what it’s doing.

Highly recommended — one of those rare places that feels like both a local favorite and a weekend escape. GO!“

“The food and the service are always well above average“

“i come from Setauket almost weekly tp hsbe breakfast at Jimmys! always greeted with a warm smile, its an old school breakfast spot that just makes simple, delicious food at great prices. The double french toast with well done home fries is my go to and i refuse to eat anything else! Anyone who down voted Jimmys is a Communist snd cannot be trusted!“

“I love having the diner local. However, we ordered the Greek salad. There is no Greek dressing offered and did not send withTzatziki. This is a Greek restaurant and was not a Greek salad.“

“Food was absolutely fantastic tonight. Actually never had a bad meal here. Worth the price. Service was great too.“

“A huge thank you to Broadway Market for creating the most beautiful (and absolutely delicious) cake for my mom’s 60th birthday 🎂✨ It was truly the centerpiece of the night and made her celebration even more special.The design was stunning, and every detail was perfect you exceeded our expectations in every way. Thank you for helping make such a meaningful milestone unforgettable 🩶🖤“

“The food here was absolutely incredible. Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. The fries were golden and addictively good, and even the dessert was a standout, with a perfect mix of sweetness and texture that really tied the whole experience together.

What made it even better was the service. The staff was genuinely friendly, welcoming, and attentive without being overbearing. You could tell they cared about creating a great experience, not just serving food. Overall, it’s the kind of place you leave already thinking about your next visit! Hoping for a Nassau county location in the near future. 😉“

“WOW! You walk in and the ambience is tranquil and the restaurant made me feel like I was in a Soho village hipster hangout. Most importantly the food is just amazing, authentic and the service is genuine with the owners being as amazing as their food.“

“Never again!!! Beware. We have been here before and never had an issuse but now we will never be back. My husband and I went here Nov 6th the night before our daughter's wedding. I got food poisoning so bad I nearly ended up in the hospital. Still 3 days later I am still feeling wretched.“

“Great place to chill but they need to do something about the front bar. If its busy at all with patrons sitting at it, it takes forever to get your drinks. I recommend extending it with a section that doesn't have seats in front of it.“

“Hands down the best pizza I’ve had in YEARS!!!! Brooklyn pizza was incredible the garlic bread option for the hero’s UNREAL! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE!! Even had an issue with the pizza when it was delivered they came right back with a fresh pie. Top notch customer service. Hard to come by these days. I hope they stick around for a while“

“Love the food. Service and atmosphere.“

“Breakfast is our favorite meal and we eat out every morning. Due to an early morning doctor appointment, we bumped into Buttermilk’s Kitchen. Great vibe as soon as you walk in….friendly and cheerful staff, nice decor, immediate service. I had the “The ‘Ol Barnyard”…..the sausage gravy was excellent with big chunks of sausage and super flavorful…..probably the best I’ve had here in NY and most of the South!!! The bacon was high quality and very tasty. My perfect over easy eggs were so fresh (yes, I can taste the freshness and quality just by having a bite of the whites!). My husband had a “Create Your Own Omelette” and declared that is was a “work of art” (I was offended because I make a darn good omelette and he never said that to me!) We were concerned about the “hash browns” because that usually means just cubed and fried potatoes, so we were very pleasantly surprised at the delicious shredded and seasoned, crispy but soft hash browns. Our regular coffee was good and hot, and they offer several “craft” coffee options. The Banana Foster French toast looked delectable! The lunch menu looks good, as well. We’ll definitely be back.“

“Chocolate Chip Cookies with the Chips on Top! I always buy those because I LOVE those!“

“The best Italian around from the best family in the business! It was so nice to dine here again after quite some time and it was even better than I remembered!“

“My wife and I went in to give this place a try and were very pleasantly surprised. The service was very good, the restaurant is neat and clean. The FOOD is exceptional. We have been back a few times and we are always trying different meals with the same result… absolutely delicious.“

“Great food! Cozy atmosphere and friendly staff. Huge fireplace and water views. The menu has something for everyone.“

“Allow me to tell you about this absolute magnificent restaurant. The atmosphere was exactly how I expected it, it was an experience. Even with their lowest spice level, they still have a kick to their food. Their food is also very filling and there's plenty to go around. The employees and people there know exactly what they're doing, how to cook, how to talk with people, they are the prime example of a 10/10 restaurant. I do not joke when I say this, this restaurant genuinely made me happy. Without this place, the world gets worse in my eyes.“

“I have loved everything I have eaten here. The only thing I am not a fan of is the pizza. Staff makes you feel like family. The dinning room is small yet spacious. Every time we eat there we end up talking to other tables. I drive quite a distance to eat here. If you go you have to try the baked clams. They only serve cherry stone clams. So so good.

Parking: Medium sized lot“

“Absolutely amazing food. Wonderful service. I go there often I highly recommend it“

“Had my bridal shower here and it was a dream! The food is delicious and the staff is wonderful. The catering manager Byron is a pleasure to work with and was so accommodating! Our guests can’t stop talking about how great the event was!“

“Tiger Lily Cafe is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is warm, inviting, and full of good vibes. Their menu offers a fantastic selection of delicious and healthy options, making it easy to enjoy a meal that’s both satisfying and nourishing. Owners Lisa and Kelly are an incredible duo—so welcoming and friendly that you feel like part of the family the moment you walk in. Their passion for the cafe and their customers truly shines through. I can’t wait to go back and enjoy more of what this wonderful spot has to offer! Highly recommend!“

“BEST FOODS EVERY!!! YUMMY YUM YUM!!“

“Got 3 tacos combo, double rice, and a side of guac. With tip it was 15$ - amazing price.

Top-tier service, great cashier.

Guac is great, pork taco was great. Chicken taco was super dry and nasty. Steak taco was okay.

Rice was straight mushy. Could be from the drive home though.

My main issue is the sauce, asked for the spiciest they had and it didn’t have a hint of spice. It tasted sweet, a mild sauce from Taco Bell is spicier.

Really confused by it, my girlfriend who can’t handle pepper said it was good and had a “little kick to it”. She can’t even handle green Tabasco without freaking out… I NEED ME SOME HEAT MIGUEL!“

“Always a great list of tasty well made beers are here.“

“We are from Illinois and came here to watch the bears game. Food was good. Service was awesome. Waitress and bartender were totally awesome. I believe there names were Lauren and shalean ?“

“Absolutely delicious 🤤 was given a sample of the chicken bacon ranch today(they just gave me as a bonus 😍) it was really perfect. I also picked up some other special slices and they are just as good. All the staff is above and beyond polite and such a beautiful team. We always feel welcome and full. They are fast and have great pizza!“

“This is my favorite place for a pint. The Guiness is always poured just right, the menu is great. It is small, but if you want to go to dinner where you can actually hear the company you are out with its perfect for that. The server Joe is always so nice, and makes it a pleasure to go to even when we have not visited in a while.“
