50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Austin

“I would like to respectfully start with; I’ve been to Uchi multiple times over the years and will never forget my first experience (which will always be the best in my mind.) That being said — tonight might have been the closest to first I’ve ever had. Chance, our server was attentive, knowledgeable, easy going, brought some of the best plates when we asked “bring us what you like/anything you think we missed” literally 12/10 would recommend. Ask for Chance, he knows his shiiiiiiii* and made our night absolutely amazing and something we will never forget!“

“After living in Austin for 13 years this was the best meal we have had here. All the food was beyond incredible (scallops and BBQ lobster our faves). Kerry, Jeb, and Zach (Server assistant) provided the best service we have encountered at any restaurant in Austin. The three of them should train all of Austin. You made our celebration so special.“

“Love it here! Fine dining in a relaxed atmosphere.“

“excellent dining in a great atmosphere an awesome service sampled a bunch of tasting plates from the fish tacos to the bone marrow and the oysters even had a wonderful dessert with their homemade ice cream and bananas did I say that the service was awesome top notch five stars all day definitely a place to visit in Austin“

“Totally new world of tacos! Amazing flavors, unusual combinations, super fresh ingredients and perfectly prepare. Well deserved James Beard award!“

“way too expensive. Atmosphere is Nice. ribs are soft and pull off bone with perfect bark, however too sweet for my personal taste. I like savory spicy. brisket was good but should have gotten marble like last time. last time flavor was better and meat was hot and fresher. sausage was a no for me personally it tasted grainy and was barely warm. Mac and cheese is good and husband said potato salad was a 3 or 4. best barbecue is Southside Market-Flavor, Henry's in Austin by the airport.“

“My wife and I had the best experience here for my birthday lunch, I'm so glad we chose this restaurant to eat at while in town for the Austin FC match! I can't say enough about the staff and the owner Joel who went out of his way to be extremely kind to us. Not to mention the food and drinks were so good. We'll definitely be back!“

“K.R. took such good care of us, really refreshing to have such a nice server/good service these days. Went above and beyond, definitely created a couple new regulars. Atmosphere and food was so nice, we were walking by and had no idea the restaurant was tucked back in there!“

“Thanks!! We’ll miss your delicious food and presence in the neighborhood“

“Great Food and awesome ambiance.“

“Good people and good food!“

“Food was excellent & the atmosphere was very warm & cozy.“

“Delicious BBQ! Great ambiance and service!“

“Awesome food and staff! Don’t miss!!“

“We liked this place so much, we ate here twice during a long weekend in Austin. Everything we tried was excellent, from the baked goods to the salsa. Some of the best vegetarian fare I’ve ever had, and I’ve been veggie for nearly 25 years. Gracious, friendly service. Can’t recommend enough!!“

“Great atmosphere, tasty food! We will be back!“

“My one year old grandson loving Daddy’s pho💕 Everything sooo tasty, especially # 49, tofu bún.“

“Lovely spot. I liked the water carafe per table, and the flame was real. Laid back atmosphere-some larger tables, some smaller ones, and was lively but not too loud (I was able to read). The focaccia was fluffy and lightly flavored, Brussel sprouts flavorful, crunchy, and had a touch of salt. Tiramisu was unconventional, but I liked it. Rachel was lovely server-very nice, knowledgeable of the menu, and had great timing. They had a small bar, high top I believe, and a mix of tables and booths. Outdoor seating as well on the patio.“

“Delicious tacos and enchiladas. Good beans, great salsa bar. Delicious hand made tortillas. What more could you want?“

“I reserved online for my daughter’s birthday and got into town an hour earlier and they still were able to accommodate us. At the table with the menus was a birthday card with a really nice and meaningful note on the inside. Staff, drinks, and food were amazing! Definitely recommend checking this place out.“

“My first time. I loved the atmosphere, relaxed vibe and fast service. At first l, I thought the burger was small (Deep End). Ðon't let it fool you. Turns out it took me 3 days to finish it 😅 it was more and became more and more delicious as leftovers. And you can walk off your meal down at the park or read 📚 😏. Even though there super busy, staff were fast total professionals and tended to me asking if I needed a drink. That was nice to get that attention - as busy as they were. The ambience had an old school vibe - real oldies I freaked out it such a young crowd. Very cool n hip place and everybody had manners as busy as it was. I loved it. Y. SATx“

“One of my favorite Japanese spots in Austin! I usually opt for pickup rather than dining in, and everything I've tried from the menu has been excellent.

My top favorites are the Mini Chirashi Don, Unagi Sando, and Fruit Sando - all are absolutely delicious.

If you're planning to visit, I recommend going early, as popular items sell out quickly. They also offer an online pre-order option. Highly recommend this place!“

“Great place! If you don’t order the cannoli, you are missing out!“

“Amazing!!! Great atmosphere, amazing food, and down to earth owner!!!“

“Love Bodhi Viet and what they stand for. Everything on the menu is vegan Vietnamese, mostly faux meats in different formats, not a ton of tofu. Think seitan. Most dishes are served with fresh, raw veggies or steamed veg with no seasoning which is a nice balance with the heavy, salty faux meat. Everything my husband and I have tried has been delicious! We try to try a new item every time. I overheard the cashier tell a regular that R10 is her favorite (braised tofu rolls). $5 vegan banh mi is a steal, and most of the other entrees are $9. You can currently order online and pay there with card or cash.“

“Very nice mediterranean options, would recommend.“

“The best BBQ I’ve ever had! 5 stars!“

“As always, for many years we’ve dined at Jeffrey’s and we are very pleased with the service and of course our food. Can’t say enough!“

“We had such a great experience tonight! Kawthar was an amazing server. She was attentive, patient with all of our questions, and made sure everything came out just the way we wanted. She went above and beyond to make our birthday girl feel celebrated, and it truly made the night special. You can tell she genuinely cares about the guests she’s serving. Thank you, Kawthar, for making our evening so memorable — we’ll definitely be back!“

“I know everyone is putting how amazing the burgers were but even for an old-fashioned hamburger, and I've rated many, these were quite dry and flavorless. I had the bacon cheeseburger with everything on it. Kids did love the fries. Just being honest, because what else is a review for, right?. However, the service was very quick, especially given how busy it seemed to constantly be. They had great sweet tea and the butterscotch shake hit the spot on a hot day. As for the atmosphere? I like how it hasn't changed much in 80 years so nostalgia is always a win for me and the prices weren't bad if compared to Whataburger up the way.“

“Good food and friendly service. My friends and I came here while visiting Austin. We chose patio seating because it was really nice outside during the morning. We got the French toast, avocado toast, BLT, a pumpkin pancake on special, and a side of hash browns. Everything was good and our server was great! It was busy for a reason. I recommend!“

“Fun times I was there for the 2024 Cheftochef conference!“

“Just made an order from here its very good!! I've already had two tacos!! I love the chorizo is like my favorite food and very good with eggs!! Excited about my other order!! Chips are also very good!! Very pleased!!! I don't always come down here but they have many good places!! I live way more north!!
I also had the chicken bowl and the chicken here is amazing and very good!! Thank you!!“

“everything in life will be muted and dull until I return to Olamaie it is exceptional to the point that I have lost sense of punctuation and capitalization truly“

“grubb best hot sauce around“

“Great spot, friendly people. Get some of everything. Nothing disappoints.“

“The service was fast and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious! The best breakfast my wife and I have ever had!“

“This restaurant is highly recommended. The food is delicious“

“Food was delicious! We shared the breakfast taco and had plenty left over!“

“Visited Austin for a few days and looked up a brunch spot to hit up… the name caught my attention and it did not disappoint! The kimchi hash was phenomenal! And you can never go wrong w a smoked salmon bagel! We will definitely be back when in the area! Staff was attentive, nice and the atmosphere was great! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The best experience and great food“

“I came for the "grandma" pizza, and it's terrific. But I'm coming back for the NYC slices, which are crispy perfection. Is it as good as NYC? No - it's better. Check out my full review at "Pizza Quixote" (google it). Five stars!“

“My new favorite restaurant for fancy dates with my husband 😍🥰“

“10/10 delicious food, friendly staff!“

“I can't recommend the kitfo highly enough.“

“Best korean wings in the area. Great food, great service and great staff.“

“The food is amazing and so is the service. My only complain is one of the guys that work there (that I have noticed) has a very bad smell from his armpits. When he brings the food to the table, he leaves his smell. He has dark hair and curls, so if I can smell him I can't believe that the manager of the restaurant or someone else haven't told him anything. It's the 3rd time I smell him. He is a nice guy and very educated, so please just ask him to use deodorant.“

“I got the fried chicken pieces and the ramen and it was SO good. Super flavorful and fresh.

The chicken was super crispy and came with a good mayo. The ramen had a really balanced flavor with just a touch of spice.

I'll definitely be back!“

“The food is very well executed and presented, the staff are very attentive.“

“Wonderful establishment. Food is great . Gabriel Culiat will definitely recommend them to family and friends“
