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!!“

“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.“

“I’ve only been here for happy hours and food at the bar… And decided to try it for Valentine’s Day… was extremely impressed. The ❤️ prefix menu with oysters, meatballs, and Bronzino on mushroom risotto was out of this world. On a busy night… The staff didn’t miss a step and were pleasant and accommodating. Bravo!!!“

“I don't know how I missed this hidden gem in St.James, but I was fortunate to have dinner there last night. A small, but intimate restaurant, almost missed it traveling from south to north on Moriches Rd. Not your typical menu that you would find in your average Modern Italian restaurant. Delicious, authentic italian regional dishes, like mama made. Interesting appetizers to wondetful pasta dishes, and the braised beef over polenta was incredible. You can bring your own wine, and the wait staff was very attentive, great place, looking forward to returning!“

“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!“

“Great food great services good astosophere“

“I absolutely love Soul Brew!

I’ve been adoring this place from afar since I moved away from Long Island in 2016, but I always make sure to stop by when I’m back home.

As if the creative menu and specialty drinks weren’t enough, the whole atmosphere is Soul Brew is just awesome. They display local art for sale! They’re always playing great music (and now they host open mic nights, I hope to catch one next time I’m on the island!). The staff is so kind and helpful.
I love walking from my husband’s parents house and grabbing the latest seasonal drink to go, as well as meeting up with friends and grabbing brunch and catching up.

I was also lucky to have my bridal shower at Soul Brew! They catered a delicious dinner and served up some seriously tasty drinks as we celebrated. The two women working the event were just incredible and SO gracious as I herded all my ladies out at the end of the night.

Soul Brew is the local coffee shop I wish was way closer to me (and not across the country 😅)…but I’ll be a fan girly for life! 🫶🌈☕️“

“I am totally disappointed in my dining experience tonight. I have been to this location numerous times. This visit was mayham. There was no one at the front desk to seat people. Got seated and sated I was ready to order. I gave my order and asked for everything to come out together. This didn't happen I got queso and had no chips, I literally had to go most of the way in nyo the kitchen to get them. The manager Craig was rude when talking the my about my experience. I will not be back!“

“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“

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

“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.“

“The food was fresh, flavorful, and a great healthy option. Everything tasted well-seasoned and made with quality ingredients. The customer service was warm and welcoming, and the space itself was very clean and spacious, which made the experience even better. They also have a cute outdoor seating area that would be perfect for enjoying a meal during the summertime. Overall, it was a great experience, and I’ll definitely be back to try more from their menu!“

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

“I had been to this location before and the service wasn't the best. I wanted to give it another chance and went there yesterday, Sunday. There was a new girl at the counter. She is very attentive and friendly. That changed my perspective. Thanks to her, I will be back. Chicos Tex-Mex, that girl is fast and very helpful.“

“Amazing Chinese comfort food around this area!! I’m so glad to have found this place and it is cozy and serves such good food. I have ordered many times from here before and have also eaten in!! My personal favorite dishes are their string beans and their xlb. Reminded me a lot of home:) In addition, their service is also very fast and I love how they recommend me dishes when I’m struggling to order. Overall, will always come back again and bring my friends too! 😊😊😊“

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

“Delicious Food and wonderful service!“

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

“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!“

“This place is the best pho I know of on LI, east of the Queens border. The food is always fresh, and they accommodate special requests with courtesy and care. The portions are generous and proper, too, particularly in this age of shrinkflation. Smithtown is a little far for me, but this is the ONLY-where i go when i need pho.“

“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!“

“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. ✨🤙🏼“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!!!“

“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! ❤️“

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

“Thanks you so much #psychiczabaza“

“Bird & Bao in Patchogue is hands down one of my favorite places to eat! The food is always consistently amazing & the owner & staff are genuinely some of the nicest people. Every time I walk in, I feel like I’m being taken care of & it keeps me coming back way more often than I’d like to admit (I’m officially addicted).

The Nashville hot chicken bao bun is my go to every single time. Perfectly crispy, spicy, flavorful, & just unreal in that soft bao bun. And the crispy brussel sprouts… honestly, they’re to die for. I could three whole orders by myself without blinking.

If you’re anywhere near Patchogue & haven’t tried Bird & Bao yet, you’re missing out! I recommend it to everyone!!“

“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!“

“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!!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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!!! 😋 🍽 🍷“

“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.“

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

“Off the hook! So stoked they are open again. Had a total feast tonight and look forward to returning. Dipa the owner is really friendly and the food is unbelievable. Thrilled not to have to drive far for good quality Indian food!“

“solid stuff. best breakfast going“

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

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

“EXCELLENT FOOD & SERVICE!“

“The litteral only downside is that it's so popular it's a little cramped walking through the front door. And when the worst thing about your restaurant is it's too good that says a lot. The food is delicious and reasonably priced the torta del sol bring a notable stand out. The staff is friendly attentive and personable, and the bread is out of this world. I highly recommend this place“

“I've been to Toast, Port Jefferson Ststion, 3 x already and each time am so glad to bring friends to enjoy their first Toast dining experience. Everyone I've brought raved about the food & service and are looking forward to returning.“

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

“Simply put, great!! High quality and taste too.“
