50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Dayton

“I got the Tony and it was excellent. The menu is limited, might want to expand sandwich choices even just using different combinations of the same meats / cheeses and toppings. Sides and salads are limited, again might want to look at expanding. The grocery concept, I get it biggest complaint of downtown residents is lack of a grocery store. There selection is limited and didnt look like they covered the basics. I would either get in or out of thar business and maybe focus on being a sandwich shop.“

“Larry and Lester are a team of brothers that have their Invoke at the 2nd Street Market. Today I got a breakfast hash and it was so fresh and delicious. The secret sauce isn’t a secret if by any chance you watched Lester win season 2 of Top Vegan! Thanks guys for your winning attitude, it is always a pleasure to be in your presence. Gluten free, vegan and vegetarian options.“

“I would like to share a public review of Vegan It IZ Eats, LLC. Where do I begin? I ordered a Scratch-Made Mushroom and Black Bean Patty, Spring Mix, Smoked Coconut, Signature Sauce, Onion Crunch, Pickles, Tomatoes w/House Chips, and it was exceptionally delicious. Everything was fresh, and it was evident that it was made with love. As someone who rarely eats out due to a preference for preparing fresh meals, Ms. Rhea has undoubtedly changed my perspective. I intend to order from her establishment once a month. That sandwich certainly deserves recognition. If you’re in Dayton Ohio or surrounding areas please support this black owner business, you will definitely do the happy dance while eating .“

“Ok so we’ve dined at Old Scratch Troy location about 6 times since it’s opened. Waited a bit to give them time to really get in their groove. While I do recommend the place. Pizza is good, staff is nice (especially Amanda at the bar) and shareables are tasty. That said I would like to see the food’s taste be a little more consistent. My favorite dish is the fire roasted cauliflower but sadly it hasn’t been prepared the same way twice with the last two times it was barely seasoned at all once it was almost raw. Hopefully as training continues they will fix that issue.“

“Stopped in Tuesday. Service was outstanding and the food was delicious. Would highly recommend.“

“Unlimited toppings? Yes please!“

“Sueño is now easily our favorite Mexican restaurant in Dayton. The atmosphere is vibrant, with great energy and stylish decor. The service is impeccable, complete with complimentary valet parking! Their cocktails are a highlight, especially 'The Guy,' and the food is out of this world. We tried the chips and salsa, (Salsa del Día), Tacos de Cochinita, and the smoked chicken enchiladas — all were absolutely delicious. The smoked chicken enchiladas were so good that we had to order a second serving. I could eat their chips and salsa every day; the salsa, possibly a fermented pineapple and jalapeño blend, is one of the best I’ve ever tasted. If you're looking for upscale Mexican cuisine, Sueño will not disappoint!“

“Great location for a nice night out. Service (Alisha) was phenomenal and the scallops were super good. Nice wine selection and unique menu made the night a win. Bonus: steps away from Too Social (axe throwing) and around the corner from the Century Bar.“

“I don’t review on here unless something is great or terrible, and Lily’s is firmly in the first category. I’ve visited since they opened and felt it was a great brunch spot, but the menu was a bit static for date night dinner. I’m happy to say, they’ve knocked it out of the park with their new menu and Tiki Bar theme.
Cocktails were well-crafted and deserving of the price point, food was excellent and the portions were incredible! Best of all was the service. I’ve always enjoyed the waitstaff at Lily’s, but the team they have now truly love their jobs and their customers, and it shows! They collectively serve the customers as a team and work very cohesively. The result was prompt service and getting to interact with multiple wonderful humans. 10/10 will be back again soon!“

“My son brought me here today for an early Mother’s Day. The atmosphere was beautiful and our waitress was helpful with our lunch selections. The chicken and waffles were so good! I highly recommend this place!“

“Had heard great things about the Vegan options that Flavors offered and boy was I not disappointed. The man at the counter went over the menu in detail pointing out the vegan options. I got the Hummus bake and it was delicious. The chips, salsa and garlic sauce was outstanding. I will be back. Great food, great service at a very reasonable price and made to order VEGAN style.“

“Food was great. Real teff injera with authentic sides. Vegan gluten free options available.“

“My friend lives off 3rd Street and said she had fabulous food here. When I pulled up I wasn't sure what I was walking into but have been there almost every week since my first time a few months ago. Great food, really good service and you get your food quick! And did I mention the prices! Wow so well priced. Great quesadillas, great burritos and out of this world salsa. Try them, you will not be sorry. In case you didn't realize, I highly recommend this amazing little family run restaurant.“

“great vegan menu. food is amazing. the power was out while we were there and we were still accommodated and had fantastic service. the vegan chocolate cake is to die for!“

“Happy to find delicious Thai food so close to home! I have been several times and they get it right every time. The staff is also very friendly and welcoming with fair prices.“

“Food was really good and served hot (really hot). I had Chicken with cashew and couldn't eat it all so I have enough for another meal.“

“I absolutely love this restaurant for its healthy ingredients! You can taste the freshness! love the purple rice from Korea! All the sauses are deligh but my faves are teriyaki and sweet and sour! They are so light and fresh!“

“Lovely restaurant! We were treated graciously! The food was outstanding. We are from Texas and my husband said the steak may have been the best he has ever eaten. My nephew chose the walleye and I chose the trout - both dishes were fantastic! We chose to take key lime pie with us for later, and it was scrumptious! We were thankful that we made reservations. We were surprised that the restaurant was absolutely full on a Tuesday evening indicating that it is most popular with the local population. The staff was very kind and attentive! We highly recommend if you are in the Dayton area.“

“We had lunch on Saturday and as usual all of our meals were delicious! Our server Karugu was fantastic!! Friendly, efficient, quick to refill our drinks with a great smile! We started off with pretzel bites, hot and delicious! Started off with cups of gumbo, perfect on a cold rainy day! Great soup loaded with shrimp, chicken and sausage. Then the 4 of us had deluxe pizza, a tuna melt, chicken quesadilla and the Italian sub. Everything was great. The pizza crust was crispy and light. Perfect!“

“My daughter & I went here for brunch. It was hands down the best brunch I've ever consumed in my life!“

“Absolutely amazing place to go and the owners and workers are the kindest and nicest people ever! If you haven’t ever been or haven’t ever had Indian food in general, they are so informative and will guide you to something you’d like! I cannot recommend this place enough!“

“Great food and great service. My only complaint is that some of the tables are crammed together. It was awkward on Valentine's weekend as the tables were so close in the area I was sat that it felt like we were sitting at a table with strangers. One side was a single long bench and I was maybe two feet from someone else. It was impossible not to overhear all the conversations. Not the atmosphere you want for this occasion.“

“Absolutely amazing place to go and the owners and workers are the kindest and nicest people ever! If you haven’t ever been or haven’t ever had Indian food in general, they are so informative and will guide you to something you’d like! I cannot recommend this place enough!“

“Amazing service. My wife and I end every Oregon District trip there. Whoever books the music acts deserves a raise. We have probably been there 20 times, and not once have I seen a bad band.“

“It's the best place to eat brunch! a lot of gluten free options. The staff are friendly and go out of their way to be kind! 5 stars!“

“Lovely little coffee shop with plenty of goodies and friendly staff. Check out the whole beans and take a bag or two home when you stop in.“

“Very nice little restaurant. The food was the best part. Atmosphere and Service weren’t as great as the food, but were fine in general. It was very loud, both because of the music playing and because of the other patrons even though it wasn’t very busy. Acoustics were not great.

The fried Brie was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. It was so incredibly delicious. I got a “bend and snap” cocktail and it was really strong and good! The bread was nice. I enjoyed my chicken ceaser salad and my husband LOVED his steak. I’d go back here, but maybe for more of a special occasion as it was a bit pricey for a regular evening dinner out.“

“The food was good, but the servers were great. VERY friendly and accommodating.
I've never been a huge fan of OG, but this property was different. I wish it wasn't so far away from home.
Kudos to the serviceing crew“

Thank you for being so patient and friendly :) I’ve always had great food and service here! Sad you’re moving to Centerville but still close enough I’ll definitely still go to the new location. Thank you!!“

“My wife and I recently went gluten free for health reasons. Learned of this place and have tried several of their items. All of them have been amazing! The only thing I might suggest is a light icing or no icing option on the donuts and cupcakes. While it’s VERY good- at times it is a little much. But give this place a try. Everything tastes great and the staff is super nice!!“

“Always great subs and fast service !! 🙂“

“Great service experience, friendly staffs and delicious food“

“Stumbled upon Thai Table today and we have a new favorite Thai restaurant! Beautiful decor. Friendly owners and staff and the food is delicious! Thank you so much! 😍“

“I am so glad I don't live near one of these as I would go broke eating breakfast here everyday. Whenever we are traveling and we find out one of these is nearby it is 100% guaranteed we will be eating there at least once.

Food can take a little while to come out but that's because it's all made fresh to order instead of just heating up premade dishes. This results in such a higher level of food quality that is absolutely worth the wait. Highly recommend to anyone and everyone.

The only downside is my wife loved the coffee mugs they have but they are $20 to buy one! Make those things around $10 and we would have bought one for sure.“

“The food is always served, so good. And everyone there is extremely friendly with outstanding service. �����“

“Great food great lemon, drop drinks. Great, sushi menu.“

“we love CJ Chans!! After this craziness is over and you open back up I swear we're eating nothing but CJ Chans for a week!“

“Pho yummy at a great price!“

“Love the spicy fried noodles!“

“Our 1st time visiting this restaurant was on November 4, 2024 in the evening. It was slightly busy at this location. I got a small bowl with steak, broccoli, kale, cucumbers, egg, cheese & yum yum sauce. I actually wanted a bowl with chicken but if you look up their nutrition facts and think that the chicken would be low carb....you would be absolutely WRONG!! I don't know what they do to their chicken but the carbs were ridiculous and that's why I went with the steak. The food was good but they don't give alot of kale.....which is a shame especially since its so chopped up and small. And you don't get alot of broccoli either....because it's so big, you may get 3 or 4 pieces. THAT should be chopped smaller! All in all I would go back again!“
