50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Saint James

“Really great flavors and options and my daughter who makes soft serve into soup in 5 seconds normally was fooled by this beautiful establishment’s quality product!!“

“Incredible. One of the best meals I’ve ever had. Every dish was better than the last. The fried little necks were next level and that’s coming from a native New Englander. Can not recommend enough.

The chef is owner as well and cares about every single thing that leaves his kitchen. The prices are beyond reasonable. You can truly tell he just wants to give people an incredible meal at a fair price.

If you are in the area or are traveling, this is a must stop.“

“I absolutely love the attention to detail, the care and love of food that these chefs prepare. Love the surprise of not knowing what you get. They work with dietary restrictions.“

“NOCO has quickly become our go-to date night spot. The food is absolutely delicious, the drinks are crafted perfectly, and the whole experience just feels special every time. We also want to highlight Livia, the bartender, who has taken such great care of us during our last two visits while sitting at the bar. She’s warm, knowledgeable, and her recommendations were spot-on. She genuinely made our time there even better. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!“

“Husk and Vine has been our go-to date night spot for years, so when it came time to plan my mother’s 70th birthday celebration, we knew exactly who to call—Chef Fran.
We wanted a Polynesian-themed menu, and if anyone could bring that vision to life, it was the Husk and Vine team. Chef Fran and his culinary staff are known for their creativity and fusion, and they absolutely delivered.

Chef took the time to listen to our ideas and dietary needs, crafting a menu that tied everything together beautifully. Our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was!

If you haven’t visited Husk and Vine yet, make sure you do. It’s truly a must-visit experience.“

“I had lunch at Soul Brew today and had a great experience. I’ve eaten here several times before, and the food and service are always good, but today really stood out. Our server, Nina, was so sweet and attentive, super helpful when it came to ordering. The playlist was off the hook, and after the crowd cleared out, the staff behind the counter were dancing and having a great time while cleaning up. It’s so nice to see people who work hard AND are genuinely happy to be there. It creates such a positive, welcoming atmosphere for everyone.“

“Great food great services good astosophere“

“Honestly one of the best places to grab a bite or a drink in St James.

The staff at Del Fuego are really what set it apart. Bartenders like Jess or Kameryn make all the difference. They’re kind, attentive, quick to handle your order, and always around if you need a hand. And although I only named 2 staff members here, the majority of people you’ll encounter here are top notch.

In addition to great staff, you also have quality food. What’s not to like!?!?“

“Definitely will come again. The food is fresh and delicious“

“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.“

“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“

“The food is so good here I wish they had their own restaurant instead of just a store front in the food court of the smithhaven mall. The bobba tea and fried chicken is a perfect meal if you're out shopping and need a quick bite to eat.“

“Went last night. 6 of us. We loved everything. Food and drinks were delicious. Our server was great! Can't wait to return.“

“Big servings and it tastes good. Staff are friendly. Place is also clean.“

“This place is great. It’s my go to for a quick,healthy option instead of something more processed or fried. I came shortly before closing on this last trip, which means most of my favorite stuff is gone. However it was still delicious and fresh even 20 minutes before closing.“

“🎉 Yanilka is the best waitress! If you want to enjoy great food, a nice atmosphere, and the best service, you have to come here and ask for Yanilka. She’ll recommend the best options and always make you happy with her service. She’s simply the best! 🙌🫶“

“Just came here for the first time. Had the best biscuits and gravy ever. My husband enjoyed his eggs Benedict. Even our kids enjoyed their food. The staff were also so nice. I already can't wait to come back!“

“Delicious Food and wonderful service!“

“Amazing food and awesome curry dishes. The mangos are next level. Totally recommend 👍“

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

“I cannot even begin to say how amazing this place is. They spared no expense decorating and renovating this space. The food was fantastic and is very reasonably priced. They have a huge center bar and lots of Hibachi tables and seating if you are getting Sushi. PLUS a robot brought our food! Ask for Alec! He took great care of us!“

“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!!!“

“I used duck donuts for my husbands retirement party and O M G these donuts are fantastic!! Veronica was so responsive and helpful with the ordering process. If you add thinking about using them for favors and or desserts think no more USE DUCK DONUTS!“

“Forget 5 stars, they deserve an award for friendliest and happiest staff in any business. Every time we go, which is way less than I wish, but this is the most helpful and welcoming staff you can run into anywhere. Their coffee is also top notch. My wife orders way more creative stuff than I do but I love their hot espresso. The walk up order window is super convenient and then someone brings your order to your car. You really can’t beat the setup. 5 stars is very well deserved.“

“Had dinner with my friend Monday night! Food was amazing and the staff was great too!!“

“The food is so fresh and delicious every time. Excellent service as well! I highly recommend.“

“Excellent spot for awesome comfort food with a flare and the best espresso and lattes . Food was delicious. The atmosphere was like going to grandma‘s house for brunch excellent portions and if you leave hungry, it’s your own fault. I highly recommend a spot. ✨🤙🏼“

“First time here. We came for the soup dumplings and they were great. Great flavor and a nice selection to choose from. We tried crab and pork soup dumpling as well as lobster soup dumplings. We also ordered the spring rolls pretty good as well as the Singapore Mei Fun which had a great curry flavor and a nice spiciness though it was on the small side for an entree. The restaurant was very small. It had 4 two person tables and 2 large picnic tables with benches that could sit 6 people. Service was not the best and staff not that friendly. Once served they never came to see if you needed something or how was the food.“

“Been good since the restaurant was across the street. Fabulous.“

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

“This place is absolutely STUNNING. From the time of booking my baby shower to the day of the party the communication and the staff are phenomenal. The food was incredible and I can’t even tell you how many people complimented on how beautiful of a job they did. Michaela was so wonderful to work with. I am so sad the day has come and gone. This place is a hidden gem and I would 100000000% recommend this place to anyone. Thank you for everything!“

“So so so so good! Don’t miss the Crunchy Herb Salad, Burger Bao, Crushed Cucumber and Sesame Noodz. Everything was so fresh and made from scratch. The flavors were 10/10. The prices were super fair for the portions and quality. Service was fast and staff is so friendly. I wanna try the rice bowl next time!“

“Omigosh, your Warm Bowls are superb! I've ordered delivery from you three times now, and I'm smitten. Thank you for so much yumminess! ❤️“

“the food was good, but they need a better air filter system the smell of burning isn't appealing while you eat. the place was clean, the servers were great. it was just another version of taco bell mixed with chipotle. but this is just my VYI's keeping it real view,we enjoyed the bowls, plenty of food in each. we will go back next month to try their salad.“

“Food is always so good, especially at this location. I’ve been here plenty of times and always have a good experience, but was moved to write a review because Ryan’s service was beyond exceptional. His warmth, energy and attentiveness was definitely memorable and a reason to come back.“

“Wow! Simply amazing! First timer here and I am so pleasantly surprised!! Staff was incredibly nice and the things I bought are fantastic. ❤️❤️. Long time customer here!!!“

“My new favorite place in Port Jeff! Food is delicious, staff are great!! I used to manage an Italian restaurant in Manhattan, I tend to scrutinize restaurants, 2 thumbs up for Pasta Pasta, say it again!!! 😋 🍽 🍷“

“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!“

“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.“

“solid stuff. best breakfast going“

“This is the place To go for lunch / dinner. The food is always fresh and delicious regardless of the time I go. I stop here 3-5 days a week and it’s always consistently good. In addition to the great food, the staff is always warm and kind.“

“Had a great time with my friends at slurp Ramen! I’ll definitely come back and I’ll definitely bring more friends there!“

“Fabulous food, Great staff. ����������“

“That food is delicious inexpensive and filling… staff is amazing and place is clean“

“Such a pretty place… excellent service and good food (and tea of course too!) We just had a tea party lunch for my 4 year old tea party lover (not a group of children, but the family with grands) and it was perfect. Bonus was that I am gluten free and they were able to provide a great gluten free full tea service for me with very tasty sandwiches, scone and desserts. 🥰“

“Very satisfied with my dinner here. High quality fish and amazing service. Food was top tied. Very good experience, highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Best Asian Fusion around!!! Highly recommend! Lovely people own it and the food is super fresh and delicious!!“

“We often stop in for delicious Italian food, a pizza lunch and/or dinner. For my mother in laws 100th we decided to cater dinner at home. Most who know us know how we love to cook, and eat, but it sure was terrific to spend time together, relax & enjoy, with limited clean up.
Food was delicious. Eggplant parm, Penne a la vodka, Chicken Marsala, yummy garlic knots, pasta with escarole & beans, fabulous!
When they found out we were celebrating mom's 100th they sent best wishes and complimentary cookies to have with our espresso & desserts.
Food delivered was warm and fresh. On time. Driver helped us set up.
Thank you Victor, Sal & O Sole Mio.“

“Nice experience, I can say that this was a pleasurable experience!“
