50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Cincinnati

“I absolutely love everything on the menu! My favorite is the Meat Lasagna. I also enjoy the 'Old World Italy' feel and the friendliness of the staff.“

“Love this place. It never disappoints. Ask for the Turkish tea and knafeh for the perfect dessert.“

“Food and presentation was top notch! Everything was so fresh and perfectly seasoned. Walked away full but not feeling weighed down. Service was fantastic as was the atmosphere. 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 for me!!“

“We love supporting our local businesses and love that nearly everything on the menu here is locally sourced. There are many positives for this restaurant, including warm & inviting service. The complimentary bubbly is also such a sweet touch! The ambience is unique and cozy so, overall, service is 10/10. I wish I felt differently about this next part, but I can’t say that the food is worth the price. It’s quite expensive for what it is. Nothing we received was bad by any means—it was good! But we had one entree (one of the cheaper options), two sides, two drinks, and spent nearly $200 after tip. In my opinion, charging $15 for a side of lightly seasoned roasted potatoes is too much, especially when the entrees easily run $60-80 by themselves. Plus, the average cocktail was $16. I would feel differently if everything tasted exquisite, but it all tasted good. Nothing particularly special, I hate to say. The spices in everything were conservative, and it seems that the majority of the flavor relies on the raw ingredients themselves. I applaud their choice of truly quality ingredients, but for the price we paid, I would expect a lot more flavor to be woven in via additional culinary choices.“

“We had dinner at the downtown location this evening to celebrate my son’s graduation from the military, and leaving to report to his first assignment. From the time we were seated, to the time we left, several staff members came over to shake his hand and thank him for his service, even the General Manager. We always receive exceptional care from any Jeff Ruby’s establishment, but are so grateful to our amazing server Peter along with all of the other staff who took the time to make our family feel so special. We will support this business until the end of time! Thank you for being such a wonderful place to visit!“

“Today I traveled from Florida to Cincinnati. My sister and I wanted to get a bite to eat . We didnt want to get fast food that you could get on every corener . While leaving the airport I Googled restaurants close by . There were several to choose from however, we decided on Pig Candy BBQ this restaurant did not disappoint. The food was amazing ( we had the special which was the brisket sandwich) this sandwich was very tender and full of flavor. If you are just traveling through or a local or feel up to a drive this is definitely worth your time .The staff knows what customer service means . All around Great food and service. A MUST STOP....... THANK YOU !!“

“absolutely delicious experience. The conveyor belt featured a wide variety of appetizers, salads, fresh fruit, sushi, nigiri, and dessert. our waitress was super attentive and extremely polite. The atmosphere is very fun and entertaining as you watch the conveyor belt, the trams on top of the belt, and the robots delivering hot and fresh food. our waitress was on top of our drinks and explained the iPad and the conveyor belt system very well. Will definitely be back. for the two of us with a generous tip, it was under $50.“

“From the moment we made our reservation, we were treated to a hospitality and warmth sorely lacking in today's world. While we went at noon, the music and decor were as relaxing as an evening or even late- night event. Our server Simeon was professional and committed to make our meal a memorable one. At our request, he described different dishes, telling us what he recommended and what to expect. He was attentive without hovering. The food was as outstanding as was the service. While the shrimp toast appetizer, Wong's chicken, and Clay pot were delicious, beautifully prepared, we were overwhelmed by the presentation, taste, and experience of the coconut bread pudding with rum sauce. We will go again soon..“

“The food was amazing and the owner super sweet!“

“Last night our family unexpectedly stopped in while a large group (20ish people. The staff was quick to make space for us and our waitress was amazing. She got all of our orders correct and even helped me order safely w food allergies. The chefs also did a wonderful job.

“Kelly our server was phenomenal and created an experience to remember. The chefs made the herb crusted steak to perfection and left me craving more!! We will certainly be back.“

“I love the food, the service, and the atmosphere...“

“Went here for a date night and left so full and happy!! Our server, Jenny, took such good care of us. It was nice to have the menu and specials explained to us in details and got a lot of recommendations from her, too. We ordered the crab cakes, mussels, lamb rack, their steak and crab special for the night. Everything was cooked to perfection with right seasonings and temp. We really enjoyed the special-the filet mignon was soooo tender and the crab was sweet! It was cool to have a candle lit butter and Cajun spiced lemon on the side for the crab. We were so stuffed at the end but couldn’t help but get dessert to go. The crème brûlée NY cheesecake is SUCH a treat and I’m so glad we got it. Service was 10/10, would recommend everyone to go here for nicer dinners.“

“I finally ate at Mayas Indian Restaurant and it was great! The Chicken Jalfrezi was very flavorful. I ate inside with my family and the customer service was outstanding. I'll definitely be going back!“

“This place is a 10/10 y'all. When we lived in Cincy we found this gem, and I would dream about their food until I could go back (weekly!). Now that we live back in Buffalo, it's the number 1 place I recommend to all people visiting from out of town. (True story, the amount of Bills fans I have sent here is unmatched- do you need a Buffalo sponsor?) Their specials are always a hit, their burger... well I hope its my last meal because I would die happy. The atmosphere is just so good too (Don't forget to hit the button in the bathroom!). Our last trip in we talked to Stuart for a long time, and enjoyed every minute... even got to do a PB shot (unreal!). Come visit Buffalo Stuart! We love you! Let's just say I miss you guys. So much. Until our next trip when I down my weight in food and drinks again. <3“

“Chris was our server in the bar area today and he was great! Attentive and let us chat while keeping our glasses full. Food was fantastic! Ordered the white wine chicken and the caramelized grilled sea scallops. Delicious and recommend both. Dishes are seasonal so the menu changes regularly. Beautiful atmosphere and very pretty bar area. Small patio area to sit outside or inside with the windows open.“

“The food and service are absolutely incredible! Coming here is definitely a great way to celebrate any occasion! The wait staff are incredibly knowledgeable and the kitchen is extremely accommodating to any dietary restrictions!“

“My family and I was there today to celebrate my mothers birthday, we ABSOLUTELY loved the food them ribs are to die for, however the memorable part was our server Tonya, I think I’m saying her name right, she was AMAZING I mean she engaged with my mom and son like if she was apart of the Family and THAT took us right away, the only downside was by the time we had received our drinks she was no longer our server which REALLY upset my mother, However the new server was nice she just wasn’t her,,, we LOVE the spot and enjoyed the whole atmosphere and my mother and Family DEFINITELY will be back we just hope that we run into that server Tonya again!!! OUR NEW FAVORITE SPOT!!!“

“Ribs and green are delicious!!!!“

“Delicious vegan options such as panini, sandwiches, and wraps. Loved the Mac and cheese starter and they also had a good kids menu. Everything is made from scratch to order, so if you are on a schedule make sure to order ahead or plan well. Food was delicious and worth the wait.“

“Love all the sours!!“

“Food was great. Service was quick and friendly. I wish Cincinnati had more Greek restaurants. I live in Fairfield and we just don’t have any authentic Greek food. I’m very excited my new office is only 4 minutes down the road. I plan on not packing my lunch as much and taking some time away from work. The staff all seemed very friendly and the servers were very kind to children while I was there. I want to bring my family here but the hours won’t allow it because of work and school.“

“Delicious food...great service and pleasant outside dining area.“

“Great food and service as always!! Great to see Christine's nod to one of the West Side's nicest guys Dan Wenger who's sadly no longer with us, "The Schmoe", excellent sandwich.“

“When we went we were greeted and we got to choose whether to sit at a table or a booth.
I tried their fu ki plum wine and it was very delicious.
All of the food was fresh and cooked perfectly. Some of the most delicious food I’ve had in a while and did not feel bloated afterwards.
I even was asked if I needed help and the lady at the end of the line working there helped me making the broth and it was absolutely perfect.
I definitely would be a regular customer here if I lived closer!“

“We ate here for the first time last night , it was packed but we were seated right away and they moved us over to be closer to heat with no issues whatsoever; our server Emily was super sweet and the hostess as well !!! We can’t wait to come back, our food was delicious and great servings … Emily was very attentive and was great with recommendations .. hubby is a cook and can be a little picky haha 🤣 but he LOVED everything he even wanted to tip whoever made the Mac and cheese anywho 10 stars ⭐️“
