50 Best Vegan Restaurants near University Heights

“Stopped by the Mentor location today for a slice, left with 2 slices & a can of pop for $7. Good stuff! She said pizza was fresh out the oven, it was pretty good! A little greasier than I’d like on the bottom but crust wasn’t too soggy and had good crunch with pepperoni too“

“My family and I living coming here after a long hard day of work and/or school...It has that special neighborhood feel, and the employees, (mostly college and high school students), are awesome!“

“I was very disappointed that I called to feed 40 people. I was told that the large pizzas were on sale but instead they filled the order with XL pizzas which were not on sale. I paid an extra $39.00 for those pizzas vs a comparable number of large pizzas (the ones on sale). I called spoke with the manager who basically said it was my problem. I had never ordered before but as explained it was easier for them to make XL due to short staff so oh well I wound up paying the $39.00 more. Nothing they can do about it. Terrible customer service!“

No matter what you decide to order I promise that you won't be disappointed. We have brought friends here who are now regular customers. Come in once and you will be back!“

“Fantastic food and service!“

“The food is delicious… that being said, what happened to your miso soup? I went today and it was just a sad, watered-down broth without any tofu or seaweed. It used to be so good!“

“Great place!!! Lots to do and always hosting a variety of events for adults and kids!!“

“A great location with a lot of options (something for everyone 🍦. The staff are always friendly, they move the lines quickly, and the prices are affordable. My favorite is the key lime or berry crumble. They even have already frozen options to pick up and take home.“

“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! ☝️“

“Great venue, great people and great atmosphere.“

“Boba tea in so many flavors! Chicken teriyaki is delicious, as is all the buns and treats.“

“My visit today was on a Sunday at approx 6pm or so. I accidently placed the wrong Sundae order and was willing to eat it anyway, but I thought what the heck I'll just be honest and explain what happened. The staff was nice enough to correct my order and offer the Turtle Sundae I desired which was delicious as usual.

Here is the Plus/Minus on this store:
Plus - The ice cream always tastes delicious; the service is fast and excellent every time. Even if the line is long it always moves fast. The temperature in the dining area is always comfy whether it is hot or cold outside. The dining area is always clean. Lots of delicious flavors and speciaty items like shakes and sundaes. This has become my fave ice cream spot in NEO.
Minus: Approx 6 unruly, loud, disruptive youth arrived near the end of my visit. I wanted to escort them right out the door, fortunately they didn't stay long. Perhaps this is a new trend in Solon because a similar thing happened in nearby Chick-Fil-A Solon a few weeks ago. Oops I spoke too soon, the bad kis came back :(“

“My twin niece and nephew always make sure to take Sassy for Mitchell’s when I’m in town, and this time was no different. I had this delicious chocolate brownie waffle cone, and it was yummy and fresh! The flavors are unique, and the cup and cone options abundant. If you don’t want scoops, grab a milkshake, and tap into your inner child to enjoy some good old fashioned ice cream!“

“Brassica in Shaker Heights was such a good find while visiting a friend. I went twice in one trip, that should tell you something. Got the salad bowl both times with hummus and basically loaded it up with everything, and it just works no matter what combo you put together. Tried the chicken on one visit and the brisket on the other, both were fabulous. Fair warning though, the brisket is subject to availability, so don't count on it being there every time.
Do yourself a favor and order the fries at least once even if you're trying to be good. They complement the bowl perfectly, and throwing a few fries right into the salad is genuinely a great move. Also have to mention the beer selection. Good local options and reasonably priced, which is a nice touch alongside the food.
This place earns the trip back any time I'm in the area.“

“Fantastic lunch with a great friend! couldn't decide between a couple items so the waitress suggested their Toofer - basically a soup and sandwich. I got the Seafood Bisque cup and a half Ruben sandwich. Both tasted great and waitress was spot on (there when we needed her and not there when we didn't need her). I'll definitely go back and try other menu options! RECOMMEND!“

“The cinnamon raisin loaf I've been dreaming about my entire life. Fresh baked, it's beyond comprehension. The French loaf is equally delicious. A culinary treasure in our backyard.“

The food was amazing and the woman working the counter was hard working and so friendly. We enjoyed the food and the experience and we would definitely recommend to anyone looking for good Thai Food in Lyndhurst, Ohio“

“Souper Market never disappoints! I recently picked up three soups and a fattoush salad, and everything was absolutely delicious. The quality is consistently excellent, and I love the variety they offer. One of my favorite things is their rotating weekly soups, which makes it fun to try something new each visit. Fresh, flavorful, and always worth the stop!“
