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.“

“most amazing restaurant in Columbus“

“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.“

If you want great food to eat at a place that is welcoming look no further!“

Everyone and I do mean EVERYONE was so pleasant. That is the ingredient many restaurants are missing. And the food?? Food was fresh, made to order and served with a smile. Excellent experience.

“Creole and Cajun food fanatic here. I spend a LOT of time in New Orleans and Montréal (a great Creole food city as well.) The gumbo was as good as I've had in a long time- the secret is getting that smoke in there and you did it. My girlfriend had the vegan chili-phenomenal. Nice people and location. Can't wait to return!“

“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.“

“Great beer, great food, great people.“

“great, healthy, clean food! love their teas too!!!“

“I don’t know why this place does not have 5 stars because the food is amazing! Hummus is smooth, pita is soft, halafel is super crunchy on the outside while soft and moist inside. The condiments and sauce are also incredible, worthy of being stars on their own. Staff is very helpful and spot on with the recommendations. Plus they have minty pink lemonade! 5 stars all around.“

“If there’s a better restaurant in Columbus, I’m not aware of it. Highly recommend, never disappoints!“

“The egg sandwich is truly amazing. Perfect!!!“
