45 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 have gone here twice…I have to say. One of the best chicken Cesar wraps I’ve ever had in my life!!! Website and boards did not reflect the actual update price for fries...if I ordered online it was a $1 something but to my surprise when I get a wrap with fries it was $2.25 upgrade. I got the potato soup and as a woman who LOVES salt…it was way too oversalted to my liking. All of this said staff was slow the first time I arrived, second time it was exceptional. Please sell your grilled chicken recipe because it’s the best I’ve ever tasted…literally ever!! Although I’m sharing my feedback I still will rate 5/5 stars because it’s hearty and great food! I look forward to coming back again!“

“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 .“

“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!“

“Great food and great service!“

“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!“

“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!“

“Enjoyed the food. Carl was excellent with service.“

“gorgeous establishment run by a mega diva ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“The pork ribs appetizer was divine. The green curry was one of the best I’ve ever tasted. The pad Thai was very good as well. Service was really great. The inside was more upscale than I thought it would be. The servers are wearing ties. We went for lunch and everything was priced right. It was a pleasant surprise to see a good choice of wines by the glass. The hot tea comes out in a nice pot. We traveled an hour to go there and it was well worth the trek. Please open a Bodhi II in Aiken!! Please. 😀“

“I don't go here as much as I used to, but I can say with confidence that not only is the food great, but the atmosphere and the staff who welcome you are amazing. As a former employee, I still love to visit when I can. Chris Hinely and Carrie Hinely, the two founders and best first employers I could have asked for, were even featured on the news... not once, but TWICE. I can't wait to visit again and continue to support The Peanut Man Gourmet Cafe & Gift Shop and everything they do. Much love guys!“

“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.“

“Wonderful service! Ashley, you were a wonderful waitress! The food and drinks..yum!! Chef's kiss! 5 Stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Great service getting my Buddhist bowl and friends shrimp bowl prepared to our liking!!! And SO delicious!“

“Great breakfast but bring back the country ham.“

“The good - fresh fast cheap lots of topping choices and Gluten free options😍Lots of free parking.

The bad - anemic portion of toppings (maybe depends who’s working). Bland. Thin crust but still hard to chew. Utterly forgettable. I miss Blaze Pizza 🍕“

“Very pleasant staff..food great“

“First time and will be the first of many! Absolutely amazing! Service, atmosphere, presentation everything was so great! Our server Kasim was so friendy, promt and knowledgeable! Being our first time trying Indian food, outside of samosas, he was helpful in our selection and spice level😁💯💯💯💯 A 100% recommendation!

“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.“

“Schaumburg spot it’s 6 ⭐️ out of 5 - pure perfection - thank you so much guys. Keep going“

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

“Omg amazing 🤩 food was soooo good“

“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“

“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!!“

“First time here, and it definitely won’t be my last! I placed a to-go order, and it was quick and easy. I didn’t have to wait at all. The customer service was great, and the food was amazing—hot and fresh!
I ordered the cinnamon pancakes, eggs, and bacon, and it was honestly the best breakfast I’ve had out in a very long time. The portions were generous, the price was great, and everything was delicious. I’ll definitely be back!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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!!!!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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 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!“

“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!“

“We visited BJ’s for the very first time September 2026, and it did not disappoint. My daughter chose BJ’s for her birthday dinner because of the Pizookies (cookie-cake thingy, topped with ice cream). We ordered the dessert trio to sample different flavors, and we enjoyed them all. The menu is huge with a large selection of appetizers and entrees. The drink menu featured beer, cider, signature cocktails and even mocktails. I recommend the Sparkling Sangria! Oh, and the service, top tier! Tiffany R. gave us the history of the franchise and restaurant, she guided us through the large menu, and was super patient and attentive. Great customer service from start to finish. We will definitely visit this location again the next time we’re in Columbia.“

“Food was fresh, yummy and hot. Eating in? Good choice. You will find light hearted stuff on the TV. The music was very good, in fact perfect for that environment. You get to fill your drink cup as often as you desire. The menu is very impressive. - lots of healthy choices. Perfect lighting and clean dining room. I ran across a friend and 2 neighbors. What a nice day I had while eating lunch at East Bay Deli West Columbia.“

“Jasmine is the best server at Olive Garden. Her personality is one of a kind and so are the multitasking skills she displayed. Additionally, the server that stepped in for her momentarily was amazing as well. Last but not least, the female manager is a 10/10! My family and I enjoyed our dinner (without any issues) and embraced the hospitality offered to us. Thank you ladies!“

“ROBIN, the Team Leas was my cashier when I visited with my family. It’s our first time at this location. She’s so accommodating, even introduced me to their new mix & match menu which is new to me. She explained how I can save with that option. I felt valued by her politeness and patience. I gave a 4 star because I find the chicken meat to be lesser. All the sandwiches and salad were freshly made. Great experience. I noticed Robin making sure the place is kept clean. She’s walking around wiping tables and throwing trash.“

“I just tried to try Moe's Southwest grill after not having it in years boy do I have a lot to say. I came to this location I was created with a welcome to Moe's. The service here is great overall experience is 100%. The food with fresh and hot. The manager was very pleasant very helpful and very friendly plus professional. She made my day making my food with a smile. All the employees working were also very pleasant. They even came to check on me. Even the manager came out and ask how do I like it. She also let me try the guacamole a free sample. I will definitely be back to this location. If I can give them a higher rating than a five I would give them a 100%. Thanks for everything Mrs Cannon“

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