50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Independence

“The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The pesto hummus appetizer was the best we’ve ever had.“

“The food here is amazing, delicious, and healthy. The service is excellent. They really take the time to make you feel at ease and they give you the friendliest service. One particular staff member, a tall gentleman was very kind and asked how I liked the food, took the time to tell me my options when I was ordering, and offered to put my tray away when I was done eating. Now that’s service! Service in most places have not been satisfactory lately as the food service industry slowly picks back up from a type of recession. But the customer care and service here is above and beyond.“

“This place has easily become my favorite restaurant! The red curry and spicy wontons are absolutely amazing!!! My boyfriend and I frequent here and every time it tastes a little different which makes you know it’s fresh. This tiny gem is owned by the main server Ariel who is so kind and attentive and you can tell he truly loves sharing what he does!! A huge menu with a great variety, every-time I try something new it does not disappoint!! Give this place a try and support local businesses you will not regret it :)“

“Me and my baby go to an appointment out of town once a week. I always stop here and eat myself and feed him it's a nice relaxing vibe. And anything I try food wise is always great. Their specialty drinks taste super bad though. Tastes like alcohol is in it.“

“We traveled 30 minutes away to try their food and we’re NOT disappointed!! The esthetics were bright, vibrant and fun. The establishment was clean! The owners were friendly and welcoming! They have a large variety of tasty food and treats! My family and I tried the Ultimate Nachos and 12 flamin hot wings with fries. Let me tell you… those nachos were delicious and could feed about 3 people. The wings were spicy and had what seems to be a small hint of sweetness which balanced it out nicely!! We dined in and watched a fun movie on the tv on the wall. The Strawberry lemonade was fire! I should have taken one to go. Oh! Please make sure to get the Strawberry Pudding too!! Long story short, short story shorter… we will be returning customers!!“

“10/10 Would Recommend! Friendly Staff & Good Plant Based Asian Fusion Food!“

“The food is absolutely delicious! I am going on my 3rd year of a meatless diet and I am so happy to have discovered this place of business. Everything was flavorful and those sweet potato muffins were so moist. I highly recommend trying them out whether you are a vegetarian or not, you will enjoy the food! 😋“

“We stopped in today for the first time. My fiance is vegetarian. Food was absolutely delicious! We had hush puppies and the Uncle Charlie "Burger". I would definitely recommend to everyone! I eat meat and this was just amazing! Make sure to check them out!“

“I love this place! Me and my partner eat here all the time. As a person who recently stopped eating meat, this is my favorite vegan restaurant. The food doesn’t make a difference if it’s vegan or not, it’s just good food overall. I’m working my way to try everything on the menu but my faves are the vegan pepper steak & rice and the vegan chilli on Wednesdays. But I enjoy everything on the menu so it just depends what you are in the mood for. Omg can’t forget the lemonade! Yum

P.S can’t forget the wine either lol“

“Great food and MILKSHAKES!“

“I live about 90 min from Cleveland, and my 8 year old has been begging me to take him somewhere to try bubble tea for weeks now. We were in Cleveland for the night, and Balance was close to where we were staying so I decided to give it a try. The girl working at the counter was AMAZING! She was so helpful and super interactive with my son, literally mirroring his excitement. I know this is something small, but I have worked in the service industry and I know how infrequent it is to get positive feedback. I’m sorry I didn’t catch the girl’s name (she was tall with long blonde hair), but she was fantastic and really made us feel welcome. The restaurant was also super clean and all the employees were working hard.“

“Wonderful fresh bagels made into delicious sandwiches. Husband loved the lox on a toasted everything bagel with dill/red onion schmear, daughter loved the bacon/egg/cheddar on plain toasted bagel, I loved the Veggie spicy hummus one on a toasted rosemary bagel. We went there often during our stay in Ohio City. The staff were so friendly and personable. Will return on our next visit!“

“Stopped in while in Cle with the family. Everyone loved it. I personally thought the Duo was a great idea for all the people who can never decide on what they want. I had peanut butter something yogurt and it was great. Less sugary than normal. Everyone was happy and prices were actually fair.“

“Excellent experience with the chef’s tasting tonight. It’s a lot of food! Shoutout to Johnathan who gave flawless service and wine pairings!“

“Highly recommended for jihadi death cultists, gullible college students, and the Red Cross. Walls of this Hamas haven shine with anti-Semitic art and tropes calling for the delegitimization of Israel and the genocide of Jews. Complete with a fireplace, couches and comfy chairs, it’s a warm and hospitable place to relax. Especially after a hard day of protesting for Palestinian rights to murder, r-pe, kidnap, and impose worldwide Sharia law. Step inside this decked-out terror tunnel and order items that Yahya Sinwar himself would have enjoyed in hiding. Menu treats include: Palestinian tea; Palestinian cucumber salad; white pizza with Palestinian olive oil; and of course, Gaza miish, which is to die for. While the restaurant doesn’t need my advice, I respectfully suggest new signature entrees: Heil Hummus, Führer Falafel, and Zyklon Beef. From the Ohio River to the Lake Erie sea, Algebra Tea House shall set you free. Unless you’re a Jewish baby hostage. Allahu Akbar! ☝️“
