50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Chattanooga

“Awesome vegan menu and prices are as reasonable as it gets. The BBQ Jackfruit Nachos are FIRE! 👍👍👍👍👍“

“Perfection. Just lovely food, people, service and more. Their fall special squash soup and pumpkin spice latte are heavenly. I literally started reviewing as I'm enjoying it and I have never done that in my years of giving stars. Just wonderful. I'm vegetarian and this place is healing. You absolutely, unequivocally, unmistakably MUST come by and grab something. I doubt they make a single bad thing, just from the incredible goodness I'm eating right now.“

“Welcoming, relaxing environment with top tier Service and products“

“soooo good! I'm a traveling musician and it's always hard to find good vegan grub on the road but dang this spot was worth the pit stop for sure! I had the fish sandwich and carrot salad and i got one of evey desert they had just ya know.... for the road 😏. 10/10 ...that brownie set a whole new bar. My only complaint is that i wish yall were closer to Nashville ❤️🤘“

“My husband and I were gifted some gifts cards and came tonight. The atmosphere is different for us but it was pleasant. The food was FANTASTIC and our server Jess was phenomenal! We asked so many questions and she knew all the answers. I had the spaghetti à la Americana and it was so flavorful and Smokey and absolutely delicious. My husband had the 2 layer lasagna and we were amazed at not only the size of it but the taste. We also shared the flourless chocolate cake with gelato and it was magnificent! Overall if we could star this 100x we would.“

“The food is delicious and the staff never fail to be amazing. Adam the manager runs an amazing team of awesome gauchos! 10/10 will definitely come back again!

EDIT: November 23rd, 2025 - it's my birthday, and yet again Adam and the Rodizio staff have knocked it out of the park. My husband loves the Hearts of Palm, and though it wasn't out on the bar, Adam went out of his way to get some for us. Kevin (one of the Gauchos) made sure the type of meat we were hoping for was brought around quickly. Awesome experience here every time!“

“Incredible dinner last night at Wooden City, had a group of 7 and everything was perfect - food, service, drinks, atmosphere. It was slammed busy on a Saturday night but zero hiccups with food or service. Perfect location, can’t wait to go back.“

“It’s crazy how good the food is for the price. Wings, pizza, and ice cream are all fantastic. Customer service is top notch. Brought a big group in on a Friday night, and they handled it so well.

There’s a reason they have thousands and thousands of five star reviews.“

She was very friendly, very knowledgeable of the food, went above and beyond for us and her fellow servers to help when things got busy. Best service we’ve had in a long time. Overall, one of my favorite spots we have eaten at in Chattanooga. Highly recommend and ask for Ray!“

“This is hands down the best restaurant we have ever ate at!! Been here three times this week and we are going back tonight to eat one more time before we leave hopefully Julius is working when we get there cause he was the best waiter I have ever had!“

“This is exactly what I wanted! Brisket that is cooked perfectly without excessive greasiness and tender good. Tried the smoke bologna and that stuff is good too! The collard greens are excellent with a hint of heat. The Mac n’ Cheese is incredible too. This was a great meal at a good price. We will come back when we are in town.“

“Lo Main, located in the friendly neighborhood of Ridgedale in Chattanooga, TN. is like the first time you smelled pancakes in the morning made by someone you love, wrapped in a warm, consensual hug while your favorite team wins the championship with a winning lottery ticket in your pocket. Best“

“Simply delicious, especially considering I had a healthy option, namely the Protein Scramble. They were nice enough to accommodate my request for 1 whole egg and 2 egg whites in the scramble. The addition of the goat cheese is not one I would have thought of, but a welcome addition nonetheless. Added bonus is that the coffee here is more than decent.“

“Hands down the most fantastic meal I have had ALL YEAR; how did I not know about this gem before?! Come for the pupusas- stay for the world’s most amazing guacamole, some magical mango hot sauce, empanadas, and the PACOS!!!! Five star food, and service. Seriously, come eat, ASAP. Tell your friends.“

“Sushi is amazing, and the bento box is my favorite. I’d highly recommend.“

“Food and service were amazing, as always. We were shocked to have to now pay for parking!! A $300 dinner and we have to pay for parking! We were told by the staff they have to pay for parking as well! And don’t the owners also own the parking lot? Possibly this isn’t the best policy!“

“The food selections and suggestions were wonderful as was Zander’s (the sommelier ) suggestions for wines. It is an exciting dining experience with good value that is different than anything else that we have in Chattanooga. Service was great and it felt like a bit of Europe. We look forward to our next experience.“

“Great food! Friendly service. Love watching the sunset from the newly covered patio area.“

“Small deli located in the Chattanooga Business District. The service and sandwiches are unmatched. They've had direct competition in recent years, but have outlasted them all. The seating area only has a few tables and the line can get long. Most people end up taking their food to-go, but there's plenty of seating across the street at Miller Plaza. Always ask about the special!“

“Great ice cream and fun atmosphere“

“The bartender allowed us to sit 5 minutes before close (we didn’t even realize). We didn’t know what we wanted and he jumped at the opportunity to recommend drinks of his own creation. He nailed it and we walked out after an enjoyable conversation completely satisfied.“

“Eat here! Fabulous food! Great staff that was friendly, kind and attentive. They were happy to have us. Calzone and pizza are great. The pizza crust was the best I have ever had!“

“My son and I stopped in for his early bday dinner, with it being the day after Christmas I fully expected disgruntled staff. That was not at all the case. We were promptly seated and in the 4 minutes it took for me to visit the ladies room to wash my hands our server Bryan was apologizing for the wait!!! Like sir, what wait? He was incredibly helpful as this was our first visit. He offered in depth explanations of the menu options including letting us know about some of the special imported ingredients from Italy that make this not your typical pizzeria experience. They serve authentic Neapolitan Style pizza. We had the Italian Stallion and the Spicy Bianca. Both were superb. The food came quickly and was everything Bryan said it would be. I also tried one of the several beers they have on tap. The "hello darlin" was a perfect pairing to the pizza. We live in Huntsville AL and will DEFINITELY be making the trip back. Thank you to Community Pie and Bryan for helping me give my soldier an epic birthday dinner.“

“I was in town for the 2024 tow show this weekend..ate here twice. Both times were phenomenal and the bartenders were friendly and attentive! I definitely recommend!“

“Our server, Maha, was amazing. Very personable and attentive! It was our 41st Anniversary celebration and we had a great time. We have been in many restaurants throughout our married life, but we must say Maha made such a difference in our total dining experience. It was a pleasure to meet such a sweet person.“
