50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Waterford

“This is the best ice cream around… anyone saying it’s not good is truly just used to low grade ice cream. The ice cream is made in house with high quality ingredients. As far as anyone talking about pricing, check out any of the other places.. pirates pricing is on par with their competitors, with a better product, and more generous portions.“

“Lovely restaurant amazing burger options. My recent go to place.“

“Had a birthday dinner here tonight. The vegan tapas are fabulous!!! We had the tempura sushi, rigatoni with vodka sauce, bruschetta, and zucchini fries- all absolutely delicious and good sized portions! The amaretto sours we chose were delicious and generously sized. The fried ice cream dessert was very good. Their chef is terrific - the flavors of the dishes were mouthwatering. Highly recommend Bar Vegan!“

“My phone wouldn't let.me scan the bar code to complete the survey yesterday but a review is definitely necessary. First time at.the Troy location. I had honey bbq wings for an appetizer. Great stuff. And for an entree was ribs, brisket with sides of chili and salad. A came.with cornbread Everything was spectacular, one of the.best meals I have had. Bacon in the chili and the house dressing being bbq ranch were nice touches. My server Alison deserves a lot of credit too. Pleasant person, hard working, and made great suggestions when I asked. Alison and the food made this a great experience. Highly recommended and I will be back.“

“First time, ordered take-out, everything was great, ordered a Biryani and a Vindaloo with the naan assortment and Samosa's, looking forward to next time!“

“Last night I ordered a cheeseburger for my wife and chicken tikki masala for me. My wife's favorite burger is Burger King. She said the burger was very good and almost as good as Burger King. Her burger was much bigger from Kabob House so she only ate half. While she was enjoying her burger. I was totally enjoying my chicken tikki masala. i wanted to eat half but I kept mixing a little more of the red sauced chicken with the rice. It was so fresh and the spice was so good. I was so full yet wanted more. The only thing I could not understand was, how and why would people not buy a burger here instead of Burger King? It even came with fries. My wife said because it had no onions. Later that evening I heard half a cheeseburger calling me. I cut off a large bite and was amazed by the thickness of the burger. The meat quality was far superior to any fast food burger. I am declaring Kabab House the burger winner. The food here is excellent. What's not to like ? I think they need an interior decorator. The place needs new tables and chairs with a better layout. Brighten things up.“

“Wonderful and welcoming cafe with the best breakfast sandwich ever!“

“Office too cold in the summer? No problem, Kuma’s delicious soup will warm you right up! The Tonkotsu is amazing, the Tori is really good especially if you are new. This place is a gem!“

“Juices Forever was my 1st stop after getting off the plane from the West Coast. I was not disappointed. The food was great!! The customer service was pleasant, and on point. Love the atmosphere. This one stop shop has delicious tasting foods, and things that are good for your body.“

“Looking for a spot to get a quick lunch. My son suggested this place. Food was great, service was quick, friendly staff and very reasonable. Definitely looking forward to a return visit!“

“to the people commenting on the lack of ambiance...? i think it is fine. for me the music is "ambient" enough, along with the lovely wall mural, and photos showing what the food is....not to mention the collection of both holly AND "bolly"wood stars and starlets, adorning a back side wall. the dining area is always SPOTLESSLY CLEAN, and the bathroom shines. they keep the prices very reasonable, which is a HUUGE plus for me. the food is always great, fresh, and tasty, not to mention a lot healthier than the traditional american diet. staff is attentive. i never felt they "watch to see how many dishes you take", as someone suggested. they are likely making sure people get FRESH plates with every visit to the steam tables., since this is actually a restaurant/buffet health law...i have never ever, once felt like they wanted to "rush" me out. they are always very welcoming and accommodating.. AWESOME SPOT. thank you, clifton park "shalimar".“

“Great sandwiches and coffee. Tradisional Vietnamese. The bread and everything in the sandwich was as exspected. The coffee was so good. Ivwish i could get this coffee every morning. Happy New Year!“

“An excellent selection of hard to find Eastern European beers and wines! Plus we tried some local brews. Bartender very good at helping us choose what we’d like. Relaxed atmosphere- we’ve eaten both inside and out in the garden, which is hidden from the street and a nice surprise to find after walking through the black gates. We had appetizers, burgers and salads- all were very good.“

“Excellent buttermilk fried chicken sandwich and friendly and attentive staff!!“

“we stopped in tonight to see Buggy Jive and Amelia Ray. they put on a great show. MoJo's had all sorts of beverages. The coffee was amazing!!“

“This place is so nice and the guy they had out front was awesome. Very friendly and good at making conversation that was appropriate for the situation. As soon as we walked in I could smell how good this place was going to be. The overall atmosphere was a really nice mix of casual and more upscale. Very nice seating arrangements and I loved the nice blue fake fire place. I would definitely recommend them. We also went during a time when it was not very busy about 4pm yet there were still a handful of tables full despite the unpopular time.“

“The best cocktails in Albany! (Get the Capital City Renewal!) I had the best birthday dinner there tonight. Thanks to the team for making it special. The appetizers were incredible!“

“Nighthawks is THE BEST spot in Troy. My husband and I adore this place. They make the best omelette I’ve ever had and my husband is in love with their burgers. 100000/10 recommend. Staff are amazing and overall experience is magical!! Wow wow wow.“

“Family and I go a few times a year. Definitely like this place. Very common for locals to also come. Make sure to call for reservations during busy parts of the day. They also do take out as well. My go to is the shredded tofu with noodles. This time I happen to get a Vegetarian Spring Roll. Very good as well. I do like the Summer rolls as well. Next time I’ll get a summer roll ^_^“

“Amazing bakery but I went twice this week once at 720am and an other day around 11am, both days they were sold out of all rugulah and a lot of other things. So if you can get it, it’s amazingly good!“

“Love love LOVE B&B. Such a fun unique business idea, executed with passion, love, and the best Mac and cheese in the 518. You can tell the owners care deeply about each and every guest, and their passion shows in everything they do from their main gaming feature, their food, to the events they host. Warm, welcoming, inclusive atmosphere. Much love to all the staff , and Charlotte and Bryan! 🫶💛“

“Ordered delivery, the sweet and sour chicken they make is the kind I grew up on! I've been craving it for months and couldn't find a proper spot, anywhere until Taiwan Noodle. I've also tried and loved their pork chops with lemongrass! Delivery is always more expensive though. Food is delicious!“

“Buffalo garlic parm wings were knocked out of the park tonight!!!“

“The deli sandwich was good! The price is good, and it came with a small bag of chips. I think I’ll start getting my lunch sandwiches from here over a big chain. My small special request was acknowledged. I ordered through Door Dash, so can’t speak to the location/service itself - but very happy with the food.“

“Food and service were absolutely outstanding!! definitely recommend the Eggplant burrata sandwich.. it is out of this world amazing!! I can't wait to come back and try something different“

“My kids are obsessed with the macaroons and are a staple at every birthday!“
