25 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Watertown

“If cocktail magic had a home address, it would be The Craft 836, where the bartender wasn’t just a drink-slinger—oh no—this professional mixology wizard seemed to craft beverages with the finesse of someone who may or may not have trained with celestial beings. Every glass that left the bar glowed with the promise of happiness, good decisions, and possibly better posture. And then… the Craft and Jamaican dry rub chicken wings. Scrumptious doesn’t even begin to describe them. These wings strutted onto the table like they knew they were the star of the show—juicy, spicy, and seasoned so perfectly you’d swear they had their own PR team. Meanwhile, everything coming out of the kitchen looked so jaw-droppingly delicious it made me question every life choice that led me to not ordering that, that, and definitely that. Even the ordering app was a delight. A simple QR scan and—voilà!—this sixty-something woman was tapping, selecting, and paying with the grace of a digital native. No confusion. No panic. No accidentally ordering seventeen sides of fries. (Though honestly, that might not have been the worst fate.) Kudos to the staff and management—this place runs like a well–garlic-oiled machine: smooth, flavorful, and leaving you wanting more. Five stars, a happy belly, and a newfound confidence in QR codes. Cheers!“

“This was a very nice place for dinner. Our waiter was prompt, considerate, and helpful. Dinner was delicious. We will definitely be back when we return to the area.“

“Absolutely the best food in the area! Whoever was in the kitchen today nailed it. Best hot basil fried rice ever. The Tom Kha Gai was perfect! And the red curry is a favorite.“

“Excellent food Cold beer Great service“

“During my initial visit to JRECK’s Subs, I was pleasantly surprised by the exceptional service provided by the staff. The establishment was immaculately clean and well-maintained. I opted for the Italian cold sub, and the ingredients were fresh, resulting in an outstanding culinary experience. I highly recommend JRECK’s Subs to anyone seeking a delightful and satisfying meal.“

“Great food excellent service“

“My elderly uncle, his daughter, his lady friend, and I came here for a family meal, and overall it was a good meal with good service. I ordered the manicotti, with a house salad and garlic rolls, which was tasty but offered two meatballs or Italian sausages (I opted for the meatballs which were ok), and it could have used some Mozzarella or Provolone baked to cheesy perfection to finish it off right), and I did not receive any additional rolls although 4 were brought out while we waited for our drinks, of which we all ate one each. My uncle had the ziti with Italian sausages, which he enjoyed with another serving to take home. His daughter had the small (10”) pepperoni deluxe pizza, which looked and tasted good (but she/we admittedly are Art’s Jug fans!). My uncle’s lady friend had the sausage sub with loads of peppers and onions which she enjoyed. Again the food was overall good, the atmosphere is lively with families, friends, and couples, and the service was pleasant and good for a local restaurant with a long history in the community.“

“I’ve been eating here since my husband was stationed at Fort Drum, and this place has never disappointed. The food is always fresh and delicious! Koreana recently came out with their new lunch boxes, and I tried one today—absolutely amazing. The portions were perfect, everything was flavorful, and it made for such a satisfying lunch. I’ll definitely be ordering them regularly!“

“Great little brewery in downtown Watertown! Super friendly staff, owners and customers! Bonus: Thursday brewery run at 5:30! 🏃🏻‍♂️🍻“

“This is the best diner in Watertown. Fast, friendly, consistently delicious food. It’s a tight ship!“

“Art's Jug has been has been one of Watertown New York's go to spots for dining for at least 50 years. Eat in or take out the food is always above par. One of their famous dishes is the anti pasta salad, you will see one on almost every table when you enter the establishment. They specialize in Italian dishes. Sit down, order up and enjoy, you will not be disappointed!“

“Delicious food. Great find!“

“The baked goods are so delicious and all homemade. For breakfast, nothing can beat the stuffed French toast. The classic cheeseburger and fries are so good—better than any of the chain restaurants. It’s clean and cozy, and the girls are always so friendly. Small-town diners are the best“

“🍕 Five Stars All the Way! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 This small-town pizza place delivers big city flavor in every bite! From the perfectly crisp crust to the rich, cheesy goodness, their pizzas are absolute perfection. And don’t even get me started on the garlic knots soft, buttery, and bursting with flavor… honestly, they’re to die for! It’s the kind of spot where every pie tastes like it was made with pride and passion. Friendly service, cozy hometown feel, and food that could easily compete with the best city pizzerias. If you haven’t tried this place yet, you’re missing out it’s a hidden gem that proves you don’t need to leave town to get world-class pizza! 🍕🔥“

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible parking avaliable“

“We had a birthday party at Garland and it went perfectly! The food was so good and the service was amazing. We highly recommend this business whether you’re planning an event or just want to stop someplace for a drink and something to eat. The event coordinator Steph was a pleasure to coordinate with and quick to respond! Everyone from the wait staff to the owners will make you feel welcome and take fantastic care of you!“

“Great food and employees! The waitresses are very attentive and helpful! Food is great, never had a bad meal!“

“Our server Tabitha W was lovely. She is very friendly and efficient. We waited less than 15 minutes for our delicious steaks. When taking our order she was careful to repeat our order ensuring that our steaks were done perfectly. She checked on our food several times, brought us boxes for our left overs, brought refills without being asked, and ensured that we had a good experience. We regularly visit this Longhorn Steakhouse from Canada because of the excellent service, wonderful atmosphere, and delious food.“

“We were passing through and looking for something better than fast food. Would come back if in the area.

Service fabulous and friendly. Steamed chicken and black pepper chicken were fabulous. Egg roll was average. Very generous on rice.

We asked to eat there and they brought the food on the tray. They do a huge business on carry out (both from call in and apps) so locals like it.“

“Flights, that’s a total of eight four ounce pours. They were all very good. I especially liked the black IPA, a dry Irish stout was very much like Guinness and also served on nitro. They have food, cocktails, and other beers besides their own. Something for everyone. Great location right on the black river downtown.“

“Amazing food. Large portions. Definitely a must stop in Watertown.“

“The food was amazing! Started coming here about once a week for the last month and a half and all the servers have been very nice! Never an issue at all. Especially tonight as of 3/28 had the server named Zoey! She was so sweet and welcoming. I would most certainly recommend her to anyone.“
