46 Best Vegan Restaurants near Irmo

“Passing through town and had to check this place out especially for the new pinball machine “Jaws”. The BLT I had with their in house made bread was fantastic along with a wonderful beer selection. They also have many craft can beers for purchase, wish I had taken the time to check them out. Looking forward to sporting my t-shirt I purchased.“

“I was literally starving to death and drove for hours coming home, needed some grub so I stopped for a sandwich and stretch. I had the most memorable experience at east bay and was made even better because of Cora. Yall hired a superstar and she makes your restaurant what it is“

“We ordered take out tonight and let me just say it was delicious. The portions were large and cooked to perfection. The veggies were fresh and although some people do not like the veggies cut so large, I think they are perfect. Egg rolls were scrumptious and large . We had soup which was still piping hot when arriving home, house fried rice was perfection. Plenty of leftovers. Love, love, love .“

“We love the sandwiches, vegan mac and cheese, and, oh my goodness, the cake!!! Best vegan chicken sandwich and cake I have ever had! The batter on the “chicken” is amazing! Every time we go there, I cannot wait to go back! They are so friendly as well and make you feel valued as a customer.“

“Great food and great service!“

“A friend and I have regular dinner dates at Terra and we always have a great time! Tonight we had the shishito peppers, Chinese pork belly, snapper and the braised lamb pappardelle followed by the olive oil cake with sweet cream eggplant ice cream. We both agreed it was one of our top meals over the past several years at Terra and cannot wait until our next date! Quality, consistency and service are always top notch, and the one time we tried another restaurant for our date night we totally regretted it and went right back to Terra for our next meetup. Thank you Terra for being so reliable and delivering some of the best bites in the area, you are our gem!“

“My husband and I had such a wonderful time dining at The Melting Pot! The entire experience was fantastic, and our server, Nicole, was absolutely amazing, so sweet and attentive. She made sure everything was perfect for us throughout the evening. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was so enjoyable. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a unique and memorable dining experience. It’s an absolute must!“

“Excellent service and the food was very good. Seeing that it was our first time they gave us free beignets(sooo goood)! My wife and I went for brunch and I had Mardi Gras omelette with the city grits. The omelette had crawfish shrimp and andouille sausage in it with a sort of salsa type dressing on it. I’m pretty sure this is my new favorite food! My wife had pancakes with bacon and eggs and she said it was good. The only complaint I have was the coffee. I like my coffee strong and I like it hot this could have been a little stronger definitely could have been hotter. Will I go back, The answer is yes but it will not be a regular, we are on a fixed income and it was a little pricey for breakfast but for special days this is a keeper.“

“My daughters and I received coupons at Lexington Night Out so we stopped by today. The young man who took our order was patient and answered all of our questions as it was our first time there. Everything was delicious and my girls are already asking when we can visit again 😊“

“By far the BEST Mediterranean food I have ever had. AND, it’s owned and ran by the sweetest, most hardworking family. I couldn’t recommend this restaurant more, I wish I could give it 100 stars!“

“I had tried Ganbei for lunch, and it was so fresh, delicious and healthy I made dinner reservations for my husband's birthday. He loved it! Excellent wait staff and excellent food. Our server added a complimentary fried ice cream with a birthday candle. I highly recommend, and I am a KAREN when it comes to high recommendations.“

“Upon arrival hostess said we would have a 25 minute wait. To our surprise, we were seated in 10 minutes.
Menu full variety of brunch and lunch items. Portions large and very much fitting to the price of each product on the menu. Leftovers were taken home!
Staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and very efficient.
We did not feel pushed to finish and leave.
We would recommend 5+“

“went to this place tuesday afternoon after finding out about it on a site called only in your state. the place was busy but only had a short wait for a table & this was around lunch time. the entire staff was absolutely amazing as was the food that we ordered. waitress checked back in with us several times as well as the manager. its overall a fantastic place i will be going back as well as recommending it to everyone i know.“

“Stopped from out of town to enjoy a nice dinner and would come back 10 more times. Our waiter was quick and friendly, our bar drinks were delicious and the food was the star. Pork Rinds, meatloaf, catfish & grits + kids meals. So happy we popped in.“

“We really enjoyed our girls brunch today. Food was great, came out quickly, and staff were very pleasant. We will return!“

“Fantastic flavor! Great combination of spices & flavors. This pizza is special!“

“Great breakfast but bring back the country ham.“

“Food is phenomenal! Prices are appropriate for quality and quantity . Would highly recommend. We eat there 3x a month, and servers may vary, but service is always excellent. Have never been chastised for not wearing a mask nor have I seen anyone else made to feel uncomfortable about not having a mask. IF YOU LIKE THAI, YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF TO GIVE THIS RESTAURANT A TRY!!“

“What! As a patron way back in the Food Lion strip mall days, this was hands down the best buffet in town, & sad when they closed. I watched when they broke ground on this new location. I couldn't be the first to enjoy since now I have an autistic child of habit, new isn't easy for us. Using my Super Mama powers, we went for lunch on his birthday in January. I do not have enough room on here to describe the ambiance, cleanliness, kindness, etc... Lucas & I will NOT EVER eat out anywhere else, not even fast food joints kids are attracted to. You get your own hibachi chef, sushi buffet with chef, "traditional" American foods, full salad bar, bars full of Chinese & Chinese-American foods, soups, desserts, superior service, a really undescribable without experiencing for yourself just daily lunch. So much deliciousness to even attempt to enjoy in a 2-hour visit for the price of chicken nuggets, fries, drink, & shake at fast food joints! If the lunch is mind (gut) blowing, supper must be out of this world! Soon. I have to judge many places by staff because of my son, who not only rolled out the red carpet for him/us, but innumerable amounts of other-abled folks, which is important to me. I have traveled & eaten at many places. I now have built-in ADA EYE. My eyes have never, ever, laid eyes on wait staff, or owners, who help a blind person or someone in a wheelchair get tabled and then helped with food selections, plating, and seated to enjoy. Care, respect, not enough words for this either. I have heard the owners waited 15+ years, raising $1,000,000 to create a dream for themselves and their patrons. Where in Columbia, Lexington, Orangeburg, Sumter, Charlotte, Augusta, Greenville, Charleston, Atlanta, and so on, can you get the same? Send me a Gmail & we will talk! Prove me wrong, I will buy your supper & eat a plate of octupi!“

“Just left on a Saturday night. The place was busy. The young man waiting on us was awesome looked like he was a cast member from the jersey shore. Very personable. The food was great another great meal. Until next time.“

“Highly recommend! Beautiful atmosphere and awesome customer service. Our waiter Jed was amazing“

“Dined here last night for the first time and had a wonderful time and meal. The staff were all very helpful and attentive. The food was delicious. Our party enjoyed both sushi and hot entrees. The eggplant dish was very flavorful and the sushi was fresh and tasty.“

“Food is always wonderful and delicious! Highly recommend!“

“great food good service great people“

“Good food, Great atmosphere,friendly staff ,wait time for food was a bit longer than I would've liked but all in all it was a great experience.“

“The Lobster Masala was delicious and my top favorite! The Tandoori Mixed Grill was good along with the Naan bread! Indian tea was warm and soothing. I'll be back to try other foods in the near future.“

“Always liked going to Flight deck. This time ordered cordon Bleu and was disappointed. It was four cut up pieces and looked like it was deep fried and for to long..did not enjoy it at all have gotten it there before and enjoyed it. Got a piece of raspberry lemon cheesecake..more cake than cheese will try different choices next time“

“I came in there around 2pm on a Tuesday. The place was clean with only a few people in there sitting eating there food. I decided I want to try the small pizza. I ordered the tomato sauce with extra pepperoni, extra cheese, bell pepper, red onion and Italian sausage. Took about 5 minutes in the oven and I had a blackberry lemonade mixed with sprite. The food was what my belly needed. I will be back.
The service was great and the two ladies at the front need a raise for working by there self. They both was nice and welcome me with a smile.
The price of the food is reasonable. You get what you ask for. The pizza is hot and fresh. Next time you want a nontraditional pizza go to Mod pizza.“

“We love Mai Thai. We have been going there for years. Everything is fresh. One of the best restaurants in the area. The wait staff ROCK!!!!“

“This is my second time. Had the Birria quesadilla and tacos. They are amazing. The first time I had a burrito. It was so good!“

“Smoothie king in Lexington always has the best staff. They help me find exactly what I need! I am currently trying to get more muscle and they recommend the “gladiator” which has 45g of protein!! It’s definitely helped in my muscle building journey!“

“We had the pleasure of stopping at The Root Cellar in Batesburg for lunch today, and wow—what an incredible experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, setting the stage for what turned out to be an outstanding meal. My wife ordered the grilled pork chops with three vegetables, while I went with a classic hamburger and fries. Every bite was packed with flavor, and the food arrived hot and fresh with barely any wait time. The attention to detail in both the preparation and presentation was evident. Our server, Janice, was an absolute delight—greeted us with a smile and was full of great recommendations to help us choose the perfect meal. Her friendly, attentive service made the experience even better. If you’re anywhere near Batesburg, The Root Cellar is a must-visit. Outstanding food, top-notch service, and a welcoming atmosphere—highly recommended!“

“We have been eating here at least 2-3 times a month for the last couple of years. The food is always awesome! The people are friendly. The only problems we've had are loud drunk college kids, but that was only once. The people that talk about getting sick from their food must be talking about somewhere else. We've never had a problem, and as much as we go, we would have noticed.“

“We have been regularly coming here for years, always consistently good food. Today I had my usual nacho basket, for some reason the jalapeños are now dumped on top of the chips, I suppose for presentation. problem is that the juice makes the chips soggy. this might seem petty but there's nothing worse than soggy chips. also the cheese sauce was brown and clumpy, like it was old. this was my first bad meal. please go back to the peppers in a cup and a nice fresh creamy cheese sauce. thanks!“

“I had a very pleasant dining experience here. My food was prepared well, and my waitress was top tier. My daughter’s food was not to her liking, but the waitress and kitchen manager did all within their power to rectify the situation. I would definitely come back here again.“

“The Google said I visited East Bay yesterday, but actually I left there about 3:30 pm & I'm reviewing it now @ 7:20 pm the same day. Oh well.
The Chicken Charleston was fabulous! The blonde woman who took the order was patient and kind. The woman that got my lid on my cup was oh so pleasant. Being 62, I have trouble with a lot of easy jobs in my youth, and she was friendly with a warm smile. Plenty of seats. The prices were comparable to other deli places ( Jimmy John, Subway, etc) but a whole lot better atmosphere with seating, air conditioning comfort, TV's, and salad bar. I want to go back more often. I didn't spend anything, my friend treated me for my birthday.“

“My wife and I ate at this Panera by Lowe’s Home Improvement December 31st. We hadn’t been there in a while but the food is consistently the same and they change some of the seasonal offerings. The people taking the orders are generally pleasant, patient and helpful. However they have a tendency to neglect to offer the side item choices and assume you want the baguette. I am diabetic and cant eat bread which is disappointing because their Chipotle Chicken Avo Melt is delicious. We usually order a salad each. This time my wife met me there and ordered before I arrived. We each had the Southwest Chicken Ranch which is very filling, loaded with chicken strips and Avocado slices, grape tomatoes, roasted corn, fresh cilantro, blue corn tortilla strips, and drizzled with chipotle aioli. As expected my wife asked for an apple and the kitchen gave us baguettes. The atmosphere is generally quiet, well lit and clean however this time the kitchen was out of dishes and had to serve our salads in To Go containers. No explanation for the absence of dishes other than there weren’t any clean ones ( primarily why I gave service a 3 star rating this time). Panera offers a variety of beverages from coffee and soda to several flavors of smoothies. They have a variety of bagels and pastries for a small breakfast and some snacks and deserts. It’s a nice place to have coffee and a bagel and do some reading, more so than Starbucks. All in all it’s generally a pleasant experience and the service is generally very good.“

“I love coming here when I get the chance. The food is good amazing, the service however isnt always so. I now only come on nights because the manager Jamie is always so kind and aware because of past experiences with other managers being rude. I have to give her a lot of props... she is always sweet and makes sure my order is right. I wish I took pictures but I was so hungry“

“Kudos to Taryn (spelling) for giving us outstanding service today! If you haven’t had her as your server, you should request her!“
