This place is a gem. The food is absolutely delicious and the staff is so lovely. It has such an authentic Mediterranean flavour
It's a delicious spot to eat whether you're vegan or not. I can't wait to come back and try something else on the menu.

Had a wonderful experience at The Lemon Tree in the summer. Their patio allow dogs, so my dog and I walked over and had lunch on a hot summer afternoon. It was fantastic. The chef makes this homemade spinach burek that is the best in the city. Never mind, the dessert that I had. This place is a hidden gem.

First visit in years and it's still a lovely place! Large menu and alot of selection. They have alot of mock meats on their menu which I am not a fan of. We had the Margherita pizza and Shawarma platter. The pizza was tasty but the cheese was weird. A good size though. The Shawarma platter was huge, but the 'chicken' was strange. It was tasteless. I think they could do better by replacing the chicken with something else. The falafel was bland and overcooked. Overall, not an appetizing platter. We had the Limoncello cheesecake for dessert and it was good.
Overall, I'd come again to try more options but I will stear clear of the mock meats. Nice decor and a spacious restaurant and good accessibility. Good service...

The Lemon Tree in St. Catharines is a wonderful spot for anyone looking for delicious vegan food in a warm, welcoming environment. From the moment you walk in, the restaurant feels clean, bright, and inviting, with a fresh aroma that instantly sets the tone. The staff are incredibly kind and friendly, making you feel genuinely welcomed and happy to be there.

As a 100% vegan restaurant, it’s clear they take pride not only in their food but also in the overall experience they provide. Everything feels thoughtfully done, from the cleanliness of the space to the positive, relaxed atmosphere. Whether you’re vegan or just curious to try plant-based food, The Lemon Tree is a great place to visit and enjoy a comfortable, feel-good dining experience.

You also have to try their homemade desserts, especially the cheesecake. It’s incredibly rich, creamy, and easily one of the best vegan cheesecakes I’ve had. A perfect way to finish the meal and absolutely worth saving room for.

Such yummy food! The oreo cheesecake was the best cheesecake I’ve ever had. Everything tasted like very high quality food that you wouldn’t even know was vegan.

I came here for lunch and it was amazing! I had a garden green salad (no lettuce so good) with a Gin mule and it was so good! My mom loved the lentil soup. We also shared a pita appetizer with a balsamic glaze. I will be back 😊

Casual atmosphere and big menu!
One of the specials was an Italian meatball, and we also tried the cauliflower burek with garlic fries- they had a delicious crispiness! They also provided a basket of bread. We were too stuffed to try any of the amazing looking desserts. I would definitely go back to try other things.

I'm not Vegan, but my shawarma platter was awesome! This is a vegan restaurant, but you definitely do not have to be vegan to enjoy the food. My wife and I will certainly be going back sometime.
