50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Providence

“The food was spectacular and the server was amazing. Malyse was a great server and recommended a lot of delicious dishes!“

“A couple of the dishes were really good - the kofta was so well seasoned and the chicken shawarma plate was great. I would definitely come back just for these dishes.

While the ingredients tasted fresh, I would not recommend the tabbouleh (soupy and oily) or falafel (dry and incredibly salty). The hummus was good, but I would've liked to see the price be more at about $7 for the size versus $9 (about 1.25 cups).

The interior is small and clean. There are some tables/booths inside if you're looking to scarf down your food onsite or a place to sit while you're waiting to-go.

I would be interested to try their pizza next time!“

“Gracie’s vegetarian and tasting menus were creative, fun, and delicious! Can’t wait to discover more.“

“We had a wonderful anniversary at Hemenway's recently. We would highly recommend it for the excellent food, service and atmosphere. We'll be back the next time we're in Providence.“

“Absolutely. Amazing. Food. Can't recommend enough. Whether you love South Americam food or ar just adventurous, it's incredible!“

“A wonderful experience and the best Italian restaurant in Rhode Island“

“Been patronizing Angelo's for years (years & years) - it's my 'Go To' place in Providence for Italian. There are plenty of good Italian Restaurants but Angelo's treats you like family . My favorte server is Thera - always smiling - always friendly - and always flying around the resturant making sure everyone is happy. My recommendation - ask for her :-)“

“We went to the Newport location. Everything was quality & delicious. The frozen key lime drink was so refreshing. The vibes were great. The bartender was very friendly and anticipated our needs. Definitely a favorite new spot!!“

“We sat in the enclosed area. I love that small birds come in and sit next to you. Very nice touch!! The pancake are amazingly fluffy and delicious. I ordered The ultimate breakfast. Sausage and bacon were on point. Crispy bacon and a perfectly cooked hash brown. Came here for my birthday and it was a perfect breakfast to start the day.“

“Had the pasta dish (began w L)and pork chop. Both were excellent. Really trendy atmosphere. Also loved the cheese cake dessert. The only thing was when it costs $13 for a glass of wine, I'd like a good pour. The pours were a bit small. Service was excellent. Pricey but expected this, would definitely go back.“

“This is the best pizza place in Providence. They have a big menu with plenty to choose from. The atmosphere is very welcoming and comfortable. The establishment is also very clean. They even have great espresso and lattes.“

“Had to get a late supper. We are travelling and found this place on Happy Cow. The food is fantastic and so is the staff. If you’re in Providence check this out. Vegan and Kosher…priceless.“

“Food was awesome, service was awesome, menu was big ranging from things like pho to BBQ + combo Vietnamese sandwiches (banh mi). I have been craving this place ever since I got it the other day. The springrolls were fresh and the sauce was tasty. The peanuts that came with the sauce were good and not soggy. Coming from Lowell, MA, I can say I am satisfied with this place! Looking forward to coming back!“

“One of my favorite restaurants on “The Hill”. The dining experience at Massimo is always a 5 star experience. Yesterday afternoon we had Janelle as our server and she was superb- it made it a 5 star PLUS visit. Blood orange Cosmos, eggplant appetizer, chicken parm, pistachio cannoli, tiramisu- all excellent. Highly recommend“

“Roberta was the best. I recommend the Huevos ranchero’s.“

“I have numerous food allergies, making going out to eat an anxiety filled experience for me. We found Cassarino's while looking for a safe place to eat while in Providence. I've struggled with finding an Italian restaurant I'm comfortable eating at for years! Our server, Morgan, went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and safe while eating here! I would happily take the 45 minute drive down here to eat again.“

“La comida excelente y el servicio aún mejor!“

“Outstanding meal! There were 7 of us for a family gathering (we met in the middle for CT + MA family) and everything about our dinner was exceptional! The food, the wine, the calamari + dip, the bread, the olive oil + balsamic dip were all delicious, but the lobster ravioli and caramel gelato were to die for. Omg! Our server was perfect too. We will be back. Thank you!“

“Great vegan options! Super friendly staff!“

“Fabulous special occasion cozy spot. Fabulous for gluten free dining.“

“Wonderful night tonight at Cafe Nuovo celebrating a birthday for our twins. The food was fantastic and the server was wonderful. We loved it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Chelsea was the bomb!! Please give her a raise as she was outstanding!! The food?? BOMB 💣 SOOOO GOOD everything was on point im definitely going back!! If your a private person like me tell them to bring you upstairs!! I luv this place!!“

“This restaurant is awesome but if Cosa Nostra had any f****** balls whatsoever they would get a list of all the members of the temple of Satan/Set from facebook and start rounding them up like veal.“

“The tandoori chicken and clay oven kababs are frequently praised“

“Great atmosphere! And Christine our server was awesome. Very friendly and helpful. She checked on us consistently- thanks! I only got pics of our appetizers as we were hungry and chowed on our mani courses. Started with a 1930 DAQ, Wawtuhmelon and a Vino Rosso Gaio - all drinks were tasty! We started with the Truffle fries and the Crispy Duck Meatballs- oh my both were great! The flavor in the Duck meatballs was amazing! The sweet chili glaze just hits it out of the park! On to dinner I ordered the Steak Frites - excellent flavor and cooked perfect! Wife ordered the Chicken Picatta - very tasty with a great lemon flavor! Daughter ordered the Pink Vodka - also really flavorful with interesting noodles I had not had before. Thank you for a great experience- we shall be back! Thanks Chef Max!“

“Location/decor/ambiance: the owners have tried to turn the spacious brick and beam interior of a former factory building into a ghetto-ish inner cityscape skateboard park using graffiti-style airbrush graphics, little skateboards that serve as bar chair seat backs, concrete floors painted with Providence manhole covers, etc. Visually, the effect is mixed. I “get” what the owners are trying for, but it isn’t for me an “attractive” dining decor. It looks much more like a dance club for young twenty-somethings. I quickly adjusted to the inner-city grunge decor, but what we couldn’t adjust to was the VERY loud rap/hip-hop music blaring out of some very robust speakers non-stop. Talking was difficult. Yes, I’m an older person, but I don’t begrudge anyone their musical sensibilities… provide its not full of “***** and “nigga” and roaring out at at least 90 decibels. Whatever they’re trying to be, they need to remember that they are l (at 10 am) a restaurant, not a dance club. Food & service: unexpectedly, given the above criticism, the food was outstanding, I mean really good. Caught us off guard. Just beautifully imagined and realized. Would I return? Probably not. Even the great food cant quite overcome the soundscape. Interesting place, though“

“Food really good good place“

“Fun place! Good food (like pizza .. yum) and great drinks. And pinball. Whats not to like?“

“The best spicy margaritas in RI! Pair that with shrimp street tacos & guacamole with chips...Winner!! Friendly wait staff. Perfect spot to sit outside & people watch after walking around the city. Highly recrecommended“

“we had a wonderful experience sitting at the chef's table today for brunch! everything was delicious, we will definitely be back“

“Very unorganized in terms of orders, was given the wrong food twice. And server was wearing earbuds, and was unable to hear when being told they had brought the wrong order. However the food was very good so im willing to give them another shot.“

“First time here. Everything was spot on. When you walk in the atmosphere of the Restaurant captures you immediately. Followed by the staff that greets you. The food, a triumph. The staff themselves Are authentically pleasant to talk to And extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We will be back of this. I have no doubt.“

“I enjoy the different vegan and plant-based option at Plant City. There is the option to eat more casual downstairs, there is nice outdoor seating overlooking the river and bridge, and the upstairs Sezn offers fine dining. I tried Sezn for the first time and enjoyed the sweet potato gnocchi, eggplant lasagna and matcha strawberry shortcake. It was a beautiful atmosphere with very attentive staff. The food was exceptional.“

“Fantastic Food and service“

“Two things I don’t play at all about, are a proper chai tea latte and RAMEN. Ever since Providence lost Ken’s Ramen, we’ve desperately needed this noodly void filled, and in the footsteps of the legendary establishment that was Big King, came Pickerel, and boy do they go above and beyond the call of duty.

We had the Cabbage Ceasar (VITAL) and the Menma rice to start, both were astutely delectable, but the Cabbage Caesar’s mountainous glory is a MUST order, to simply behold, but also serves as the perfect palate opener for the deliciousity to ensue.

The kitchen cares and that’s beyond evidently clear, with the love and care and attention to detail in every cut of seaweed, every sprinkle of spice, there’s thought in every part of the Pickerel experience. Beyond the kitchen, even the bathroom’s aesthetic is of worthy note. The ceiling vents are even a noteworthy aesthetic detail.

We had the carpenter st and rhode island red bowls and i couldn’t recommend either enough — if you love spice like I do, the rhode island red hits the spot like none other!

hats off to the chefs, the bartenders, even the fellow guests felt like we all were in this together as appreciators of a quality culinary experience.

MICHELIN STAR THESE FOLKS ASAP!!!!“

“Our server, John, was absolutely top notch, friendly, professional, knowledgeable, timely, attentive, and just a total pro at his job, he represented the restaurant beautifully and if I ran that place, I would be sure to keep him in the public’s service, food was great, view was great, 5 stars.“

“If you’re at Providence and looking for a great meal, you have to try Shah’s Halal Food. The chicken and lamb combo over rice is incredibly flavorful and juicy, and their famous white sauce is easily the best in the city. The portions are huge for the price—I usually have enough left over for a second meal—and the service is always fast and friendly. It’s much better than the typical food court options and is easily the freshest, most satisfying spot in the thayer street.“

“Best flan I’ve enjoyed in the US?? Great mixed drinks delicious enchiladas verde and friendly staff!“

“Stopped in here last night for the first time for a couple of slices of pizza and was very satisfied! Tried three different kinds and each slice had its own deliciousness! One of them had a tomato sauce with onions and sausage and the sauce was so tasty! Another one I tried was a chicken caesar salad slice which is something I've never had before on a pizza and it was interestingly delicious! The last slice I tried was a white pesto one with bacon and pepperoni and that was also so good! I would totally come back here again and would recommend this place to anyone in the Providence area! All the employees were great too and helped me decided which slices to choose! 10/10!!!“

“Great atmosphere, friendly, efficient service and delicious food!“

“Absolutely amazing food, people, scenery everything!! Love this place“

“This was our third year stopping for lunch on our annual trip to RI and have LOVED the pretzel sandwiches every time! Was a tad disappointed to see them downsize their pretzel size since last year so over all sandwich was a bit smaller, but still delicious! Love the chicken salad, BLT, and Cali chicken! Soo yummy! Please note that they do not offer changing tables in the bathrooms, so had a hard time changing my toddler after our lunch. Otherwise nice experience!“

“The beer selection was great. But the food??? Unbelievable!!! My husband and I have never had a better sandwich!! Seriously… this was something else. The food is beyond delicious! We will be back and recommend this to everyone. You will not be disappointed.“

“AMAZING pizza! And the fried Oreos…..WOW! Will definitely be ordering again! Definitely 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Excellent!!! Highly recommend, warm and cozy intimate atmosphere.“

“Had an incredible meal there last night! The buffalo chicken egg rolls, the Rogue Melt, and the lobster Mac & cheese. All amazing! I’m more of a vodka drinker but the beer selection was incredible and our waiter helped me pick the perfect wheat beer! 100% I’d go back (when in town). A definite 2 thumbs up!“

“I enjoy the different vegan and plant-based option at Plant City. There is the option to eat more casual downstairs, there is nice outdoor seating overlooking the river and bridge, and the upstairs Sezn offers fine dining. I tried Sezn for the first time and enjoyed the sweet potato gnocchi, eggplant lasagna and matcha strawberry shortcake. It was a beautiful atmosphere with very attentive staff. The food was exceptional.“

“Today was my 62nd birthday. Tori the waitress brought me a cup of Gelato with a lit candle in it. She is a great waitress and I recommend Pasta Beach to anyone looking for a great restaurant with great, fast service and yummy food“

“What Cheer is home to a lot of people in the Providence area. I've been coming here for years and years and still love it. Great drinks, amazing food, and fun and friendly staff. Nothing beats a summer night on their patio either watching the game while playing corn hole or watching actual live music. Feels like being at your best friends summer BBQ party! Did I mention they have that too? You have to go on a Sunday to get the infamous Horseman BBQ, you won't be let down.“

“Best beer in RI! Fantastic IPAs, stouts & Sours. Staff is awesome too.“
