50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Columbus

“Just had Seitan's Realm for the first time after wanting to try for years. Absolutely incredible. I had the potato salad, mozahella sticks and the Rick Reuben. I will definitely be back. Edit: Also wanted to say I'm not vegan and I loved the taste of everything.“

“Every single time we have visited has been nothing less than wonderful. The environment is always welcoming, the servers are so friendly, the food is always perfection. We don’t get to visit often as it’s a bit of a drive, but are so grateful to have Portia’s when we have some extra time. Portia herself is quite an amazing person. I think she’s just a doll 🤗“

“Amazing food, solid values. I enthusiastically recommend.“

“My Husband & I are so grateful to Woodhouse Vegan for hosting & catering our intimate 40 person wedding in September 2022. My husband and I are both vegan, and found the prospect of finding vegan catering for our small wedding daunting. We were thrilled that Woodhouse, one of the best vegan restaurants in Columbus, was open to not only catering our wedding, but also hosting it! Carla & the entire Woodhouse team made our big day incredible!! They did a fantastic job communicating prior to the wedding- we spoke via email, text, phone, and in person at the Woodhouse space. They answered all of our questions & provided helpful suggestions for how the night should run. On the day of our wedding they were flexible and provided us the stress-free easy going atmosphere we were hoping for. Carla kindly whispered a few things in our ears as the night went on letting us know how the bar tab was doing and to check in prior to serving each course. We had so much fun! The entire Woodhouse team helped us craft a delicious multi-course meal that our vegan and non-vegan guests loved. Their drinks were also fantastic! They happily catered to a few picky eaters on the guest list, as well as provided some non-alcoholic options for our non-drinking guests. The atmosphere was gorgeous, as always, and we were thrilled to use both the patio and indoor space. With 40 guests the space felt lively but not crowded. We even had space to install a small archway in the patio for the ceremony. We’re so grateful to the whole Woodhouse team for all they did to make our dream wedding day come to life!“

“Literally….one of the best, and I’ve gone to many across a lot of states. Reminds me of what we ate in the early 90s in Boston. WILL be coming back when we visit next.“

“one of my favorite lunch and snack spots downtown! fresh delicious food and wonderful staff!! Acia bowl 10 out of 10!!“

“Food is good, though it is the only place I know where you have to sit at a high top or a bar stool to get discounts on appetizes during happy hour. Not everyone can sit on a high seat.“

“Relaxing, entertaining & fun. The food is adequate.“

“Jordane is a treasure to be had. First time there and she was our server. She was so polite and so funny as well. I will gladly be requesting her if she’s there! The food was amazing too. I just want unlimited potstickers instead of a bowl though 😂“

“The food here is excellent and we've been going here for many years. We get carry out quite often for parties and family get-togethers.
Unfortunately the last several times we have gone here for carryout we left missing an item. They have always taken care of it right away but it is still inconvenient to have to go back and call them because something is missing.“

“The food was absolutely amazing! my 1st time having India food and it did not disappoint! Service was great!“

“We are from Kentucky and were in Columbus for a concert. I’ve always wanted to try a place that has been featured on Triple D, and this was the best decision ever! High Bank exceeded all expectations! We left with a full belly and A bottle of whiskey to remember them by. Food was incredible. Service was incredible. From now on, every trip to Columbus will include a stop at High Bank Distillery!“

“phenomenal food. great atmosphere“

“Amazing Food!“

“Truly the best Indian food I have ever had. The chai alone is incredible and well worth the trip. Naan is fresh and well made. Huge variety of food and the staff is very friendly. Will be back many times!“

“Amazing food! First time trying Somali cuisine and was blown away how great it was. Had the goat bowl and it was easily the best version of goat I've ever had. So tender and flavorful. Will return!!!“

“Our first experience at Tommy’s Diner was fantastic! The food was delicious & the service was exceptional. The country fried steak was very flavorful and the cinnamon roll was to die for. We will definitely be returning! 😻“

“We were there March 3 & 4 ,2026 and the Filipino menu was so so good , it has a young dynamic ambience, always full everytime we were there that shows it’s really worth the wait(not too long). The service was worth coming back for , their staff really awesome, respectful and engaging! Bonifacio … it makes Filipino food reach top notch levels ! Lovelovelove“

“This was my daughter's idea. She really likes a lot of health conscience food. For me, if im eating out, I want it tasty. Well this place hit both of those marks with flying colors. The food was delish and for as tasty as it was I really expected it to be a whole lot more per meal. We spent $34. + tip and both of us got a bowl with 1 protein and shared some potstickers. I will definitely be back.“

“We had a delightful lunch today at Gallo's, from the moment entering, we were greeted by a Fine Gentleman that discussed our seating options ( Yeah, I'm a bit picky) to the time we departed with full bellies that was topped off with the Belgium Chocolate Mussee cake that was Outstanding!! Ice cold beverages and our service (Bartender) was Awesome catering to our every whim. This is definitely a MUST stop when looking for a Great place to dine!!“

“I had this for the first time on 2/21, it was amazing. I love trying new hole in the wall places and this one did not disappoint. My favorite thing was the pretzel bites with queso, 10/10. Our server was really nice and our food was incredible.“

“This place is unreal! Tried it today for the first time and was blown away. We got the cheesesteak warios way and the chicken cutlet. Huge portions everything was fresh hot and delicious. Would consider making a day trip from WV to eat here!!“

“pros and cons. CONS.. If you were to base your visit on first checking out the cleanliness of the bathrooms before you eat, you'd turn around and leave. The men's room in the basement needs so much work and the multiple colonies of gnats was like visiting the basement of college kids from a party and cans and spilled beer have never been cleaned up. Horrible condition. The ladies refused to even look at theirs. Booths are small and tight. Definitely an old building, but it's kind of cool with its history. PROS... Those were some really really good burgers. Wife got the Ali and I got the Old School. Burgers are huge and easily splitable. We tried this after friends suggested the burgers and we were not disappointed. Onion rings were too greasy for us, but the fries and homemade chips were great. Alll and all, it's definitely an option to eat again when in town.“

“I have eaten here a couple of times and tried something different each time. Everything is GOOD! Best ramen in town!“

“The Blueberry Chia Bowl and Hug in a Mug were the perfect breakfast and so delicious. I am from out of town and will be craving the bowl until my next visit!“

“I love this place!! Best falafel in town, heard it from a friend and it’s true. I’m vegetarian and they still have lots of yummy dishes that I love. The owner is very nice and they have great service. Give this place a try!“

“Coco’s food and staff are all fantastic . We have been enjoying the experience s”almost weekly since they opened. Highly recommend“

“Great beer, great food, great people.“

“simply the best plant based restaurant in the country and probably the world. This is the spot my wife and I go for all of our special occasions even though we live in Indianapolis.“

“Not sure how this doesn't have five stars across the board. We drove from almost ten hours away and after scouring places to eat we decided to stop here. The crust is crisp, not soggy or tough with good flavor and thickness. You can't go wrong with fresh ingredients like the mozzarella and mushrooms (fresh not canned, wowee!) either. We also tried Gina's Gem and between the beautiful focaccia and the dip being creamy while also sweet with a small back burn to it, you really can't go wrong. The bar is a great place to sit, no spoilers, but the walls and shelves are filled with awesome and hilarious things that make good conversation. It's a shame this wonderful place is so far from home but we're hoping to make it a yearly tradition. Thanks for the great food, staff, and atmosphere!“

“I recommend Condado tacos here at Easton. I also recommend our waitress Erin B. She is amazing, friendly and quick!!“

“Went for lunch. It was great. Had chicken with noodles and pork with rice noodles. Both were delicious. excellent from the food to the great service and friendly personnel. Will be back for sure.“

“We ordered DoorDash for lunch on Wednesday and the butter chicken, naan, samosas, and rice were DELISH!! My co-worker and I each had enough for 2 lunches! The buy 1 get 1 deal was also awesome!!“

“Service was kind, quick, accurate. the atmosphere was very chill. The food was immaculate. Great prices too! Will definitely come again!!“

“Absolute top shelf. Great Tapas. The happy hour menu was right priced as well.“

“After working with the front and back staff for over a year I get to see how everything is running as far as receiving all the foods and produce in the back I know everything is kept very clean and organized in a busy kitchen with all the preps and cooks working together. Out front we have a bunch of young awsome experienced ladies always working together and keeping all the customers Happy and Full. The Food and staffs are second to none😎“

“Believe the hype, their bagels are great. The vegan cream cheese is also wonderful. Can’t wait to go back.“

“Mmm, hotdog good. Eat many, I did. Eat many more, I will.“

“My friends and I always come in here and it’s always amazing but today was the absolute best restaurant experience I’ve ever had in my life. Our server Kim was so nice, attentive, funny and very personable. We had just missed our flight that morning and were having a bad day but Kim completely turned our day around and made us laugh and smile. I will definitely be coming back and asking for her every time. Also the food is amazing!!!“

“I can only recommend this restaurant the food is amazing and the staff is so friendly.“
