38 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near West Sand Lake

“Amazing amazing place for children!!!! Love it here so much I’ve taken my son here for 2 events and they both were so much fun!“

“***2024 Update***Under new ownership Crossroads has completely turned around food quality is very good and the service has been great. Highly recommend checking them out!“

“Subs were quite good, not portioned to blow you away but the flavor was great.Staff was pleasant enough, I assume they were busy and ya know, people are allowed to be people.The atmosphere was not great, not a super inviting setup. Definitely a little bare bones.Will get a sub here again I'm sure.“

“We've been fans of Bella Mae's since we first tried it some months ago - Their pizza was great and their hot meatball sub was phenomenal - We were pleased and cautiously tried again and again they were great - and a bit more confident we did a third try - wow!! consistently outstanding - Then tonight we ordered pick up and our car refused to make the trip - a quick call and 15 minutes later our hot order was at our door 5 miles away - Their food is consistently well seasoned, great sized portions, wonderful upbeat service and they've become a favorite go to for take out pizza and subs!!!“

“Chez Mike doesn't disappoint. Often when my husband picks me up at the train station we have dinner there. The cocktails, food and service were as good or better than my meals in NYC and a great value for fine dining in the Capital District. Our server, Cameron, was friendly and attentive even when the place really filled up. Two delicious cocktails, a glass of wine, two appetizers, an entree and dessert were under $120. I actually like the strip mall vibe on the outside hiding the awesomeness inside. Chez Mike is a real find.“

“Our waitress said their pancakes were the best and she wasn’t lying. Depending on the time you show up, you may have to wait for a table to open, but it’s worth the wait time. The eggs benedict with hollandaise sauce was excellent as well.“

“Mind blowing deliciousness! Still cannot believe it was vegan. Best burger I’ve ever had! Wish you were closer to the Utica area!“

“Great food. Very friendly people working there.“

“Fast service and super beautiful workers!“

“I had the egg sandwich. Looked like too much food but I ate the whole thing. Delicious! Companions had Bloody Mary’s and the duck chili - both said it was amazing. We will definitely be back to try other creations.“

“We had Messhall for the first time tonight and we are in love! the food was absolutely amazing and for sure our new favorite place!“

“I would give 100 stars if I could! I go here at least once a week sometimes more. Such a large variety and excellent quality ingredients! One of my favorites is the turkey cranberry Panini. Where else can you get turkey cooked right there in their own oven. I do not like deli meat, which is one of the reasons why I come here! Everything is so fresh and cooked right there. My husband and I get their salads once a week and this says a lot because my husband is not a salad person. He likes the Italian mix salad because it’s everything he would get on a sub without the bread. I would list everything I like here but this review would be pages long. I read some of these other reviews and wonder what planet these individuals are from because anyone giving a negative review is either at a different place or has nothing else better to do than write fake complaints. During Covid this was the only place I would eat because it was that clean! The owner truly cares as does the entire staff! Aside of excellent quality food, this is the only establishment I know that gives back to the community in every way possible. Keep doing what you’re doing guys! We love you!“

“This is a little place but the food packs a big punch! We are longtime fans of THAI food and it’s been hard to find any that compare to our favs in Atlanta and Durham! This place came very close!!!“

“Best Banh Mi outside of Vietnam“

“Excellent food, vast menu, very reasonably priced, and the friendliest wait staff I’ve ever witnessed. Great experience, great place!“

“The wings are amazing. They have them down to a science.“

“Never had a bad sandwich fresh meats on the sandwich. The pulled pork is juicy and very tasty. All made fresh rt in front of u and well worth the price. Go to Stewart's and their breakfast sandwiches r near the same price, smaller with soggy bread and rubber band bacon. Would def recommend everyone to go there especially if ur looking for a gd sandwich“

“Delicious food! Friendly and attentive staff Great decor“

“The best food in the area service is great and the help there is fast and friendly, especially Shirley“

“This place has great atmosphere, drinks, and service. What more can you expect from a distillery/cocktail bar? It’s nice to have a cocktail focused place, with bartenders that know how to make them. They can also make mocktails and have wine and beer available. You can also tell them what kinds of things you like, and they will make you something good.“

“This place is great. Excellent food and great service. Not over priced but not cheap. They really did a great job with eat in the street. Too bad Cohoes limited that so much because it was a great thing for Cohoes restaurants. Definitely my go to on Remsen St.“

“Homey, relaxed, friendly, great food, and EXTREMELY considerate of gluten free patrons.This restaurant has been one of my wife’s go-to’s for a while… it’s near to the home of a friend. Because her diet has to be strictly gluten free, it can be hard to find great tasting food in the area. She adores this place, and always eats there when she visits… this week I got to eat there and finally see why!We both had the hibachi combo: I had the steak and chicken and my wife had the chicken and shrimp dinner (made gluten free). Both were amazing! Really nicely cooked, and large portions. I loved that I got a couple of shrimp, plus noodles AND fried rice with my dinner (no gluten restriction for me!).Server was knowledgeable about GF food… the service was excellent (several people waited on our table): very friendly and personable. Almost felt like we were visiting someone is home. The place isn’t fancy; it’s very low key and chill.Now I know why my wife likes this place so much when she travels down to the Albany area!Highly recommended.Dietary restrictions: Very knowledgeable and helpful with Gluten Free options!“

“Went here before a show at the Palace. One of the few places accepting reservations. Seated promptly. Server was prompt in asking for a drink order. Couldn't beat the picture of margaritas for $25. 3 plus glasses each. Food was prompt and hot and was quite delicious. Would definitely go again and would recommend highly.“

“Whenever I want something quick and healthy with fresh greens, i usually turn to bespoki. their poke tastes fresh, they have fast service and they have a lot of other more satiating, meaty dishes with korean and hawaiian influence. it's a pretty reliable place tonget a quick lunch. they also have korean bingsoos now. i've been wanting bingsoo so bad since moving to troy. so stoked they have it now!“

“Dereck was amazing as soon as we walked in with greeting us. He was also our server and was wonderful. Recommend amazing appetizers. I had the napoleon eggplant and don’t get me started on the bread and pesto dip… delicious. The chef was even accommodating on making my husband chicken Florentine and I had the chicken parm. Really huge portions and well priced but most importantly delicious. Will be back for sure.“

“They are my go to when I want Chinese food. Tonight 1 of my meals were forgotten. No big deal. I called back. They sent me up an extra meal for free. So nice of them. I really appreciated it“

“I've come here twice now, and a few things I can comment on good food. And very noisy atmosphere. The food was really tasty chicken noodle soup, great grilled cheese, the grilled cheese I got on rye bread and added roasted reds and mayo, added some nice flavors. The best thing of all, and must try is their signature Fried Corn Riblets. They are kinda hard to describe, they are like the corn cob has strips pulled off and then deep fried, and they just taste amazing. Goes great with moonshine sauce and garlic parm sauce. The garlic parm sauce is a treat. Looking forward to trying other things.Atmosphere, ITS A BAR.“

“Simply the best!!! Gene’s is my favorite place to eat.“

“My bridal shower held at Brown's Brewing Company was nothing short of perfection! From the moment we stepped in, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. The ambiance was enchanting, with beautiful decor that set the tone for a day of celebration. Nikki and the staff went above and beyond to ensure every guest felt welcome and attended to, and the attention to detail was impeccable. The catering surpassed our expectations with delicious brunch and refreshing drinks that kept everyone smiling. The venue provided the perfect backdrop for creating cherished memories with loved ones. Thank you, Nikki & Brown's Brewing Company, for making my bridal shower an unforgettable experience!“

“Everything is so fresh and the staff is wonderful!“

“The food was amazing and the service was even better! Thank you.“

“My wife and I have been there several times and are always impressed with both the quality & quantity of food. I love Chicken Tikka Masala and Naan (and have become very particular with both). I find theirs to be on par and possibly even better than my long time favorite, Karavalli’s in Saratoga! Last night we tried their Chicken Tikka Masala Pizza and it was amazing! the crust is like a thick naan and topped with their tikka masala sauce (sooo good), Carmelized used onions lots of cheese and what I believe was tandoori chicken and comes with extra sauce for dipping. Our server was also very outgoing and suggested their rice pudding which was freshly made. I normally don’t like Indian Rice pudding as most places make it thin and runny, but theirs was thick, creamy and delicious! located in East Greenbush, it’s totally worth the drive!!! Please give them a try, especially since so many restaurants have suffered due to the pandemic. This place deserves your business if you like quality Indian food at reasonable prices.“

“Local diner. Kinda like cheers, everyone knows everyone, all sit at the bar, so when you walk in; they know you are new, but are friendly and nice. You may have to wait a bit for your order, sometimes the owner works alone, but the food is good.“

“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 beer selection and amazing food. Great place and will be back again.“

“Was there with the gf last night we both got the cowboy mac and moose sticks was the best mac and cheese I’ve had yet“

“Great food and service!!!“

“Ok so let me first say I Love Pizza Of Troy is still to me called I Love New York Pizza even though it changed only because it was the best pizza joint around and you started getting all these imitators popping up locally and that name was tarnished because all the pretenders trying to be something they weren't. So they changed it to what it is now I Love Pizza Of Troy. Regardless of the name change still one of the premier Pizza joints in the capital region. Granted there are some other spots locally and in the surrounding area that are also great pizza spots. That being said there still only 1 I Love Pizza Of TroyVegetarian options: I mean there's broccoli and ricotta pizza but that not really vegetarian ? ?Kid-friendliness: Friendly and prompt“
