50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Austin

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

“Beautiful restaurant. The shrimp and grits were delicious very flavorful. The grits portion was tiny and cold-literally, just enough to taste after a significant wait. Service in general was a little slow. They have a decent kids menu. I would recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for a place to meet and do more talking than eating.“

“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!“

“Best BBQ I've ever had! Night and day difference from the other BBQ places in Austin. 5/5!“

“A true Austin experience and the best staff, in total, that I have encountered in a long time. The staff and the retro setting set a really unique vibe in the restaurant. Food was very good with the spanish octopus and the rib eye being the highlights. Good, well selected wine list (even if markup is a little high) and a great bar program (Secret Beach on tap at a restaurant....thought I was dreaming).

Chelsea (Manager) was patient with my indoor / outdoor table change requests, despite being a very busy night. Our server was knowledgeable, attentive but not disruptive, and just plain cool....in fact I would say that about all of the serving staff.

Overall one of my best fine dining experiences in Austin. BTW, the outside patio is perfect.“

“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!“

“Great Food and awesome ambiance.“

“We are normal customers and love getting our Saturday ribs . Today we went For their steak night and it was beyond amazing. My husband and I shared a beautiful 2.4 lbs ribeye cooked to absolute perfection! We paired it with the best onion rings and miso glazed carrots . One of the owners also got us a burger , when I say it was the best one I have ever had it is not an exaggeration. It was the most juicy & tender burger ever . To end our night we got the cheddar cheesecake with apple butter which was a perfect combo of a savory sweet treat. We will definitely be back again and we highly recommend trying it out .“

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

“Wait a little bit on a Saturday to be seated but it was worth the wait!! Amazing vegan options! BEST cornbread ever! You have to get it with the special house pesto and vegan butter! We got vegan queso, two sandwiches and the cornbread and it was more than enough. Such sweet staff!“

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

“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“

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

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

“Delicious food truck between two buildings. Website and menu has pictures - easy to order. The food is amazing, clean, fresh to order, expediant authentic, flavorful and made with a blessing filled with joy from the heart. Accommodating to kids and flexible in the menu. Really touches the soul great energy. So good no pictures were taken - we ate on the Vietnamese tables and had extras to go for the road trip (e.g. A7. Vegan Beefless Kebabs Skewer, A2, dumpling, S2 mixed stir fry veggies with protein, S5 extra spicy chow mein, D10 mango milk tea, side of plain rice is crystal clear flavorful)...do not miss this place, support them because there aren't many vegan places in Austin. We will be back in he future ! (Prayer hands and bow).“

“Excellent brisket and that chimichuri sausage was delicious. Big shout out to Ryan our fellow North Carolinian, for such gracious hospitality. Wish we were around for the pimento cheese sausage. Thanks for making our trip to Austin worth it!“

“My friends and I had girls night here on a Saturday and it’s definitely an elevated experience! The vibe has a DJ kinda reminding me of Dayclub in Mykonos? The seafood is great and the drinks experience was even better, i definitely recommend“

“A Local Classic That Always Delivers

Sandy’s is a true staple in the city—simple, nostalgic, and always hits the spot. I usually go for a cheeseburger, fries, and a cone, and it never disappoints. Great food, quick service, and that consistency keeps me coming back“

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

“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!“

“LA MEJOR COMIDA Q HAY EN AUSTIN TX Y UN SERVICIO MUY BUENO“

“The best experience and great food“

“Brisket was solid- one of the better ones in town for the price. Very solid pulled lamb was available and pork ribs top notch- just a bit more seasoning balance would be good. Sides were excellent, especially the slaw and green chile grits. Great value bbq on this side of town!“

“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“

“Best bahn mi in Austin, the OG and lamb are fire. The sambal sauce doesn't miss either
Also everything i've had on the menu is great, all the apps, and the chicken curry ramen is underrated some of the best ramen in town.“

“Delicious Korean fried chicken, great sides, friendly efficient staff. Yum!“

“Awesome bar that’s been a go to spot in Austin for a very long time. We typically choose to sit inside and it cozy. The staff is always friendly and quick. Highly recommend it if you’re looking for a good spot to grab drinks with friends and chat.“

“We came here for our anniversary and JP introduced herself with 2 glasses of champagne for us! She was amazing, along with the food. We consider ourselves sushi addicts and have tried a lot of different places. Neighborhood sushi was intimate yet unique, with very high quality ingredients and food. Everything was incredible and we will definitely be back :)“

“Fantastic spot for breakfast or brunch“

“A wonderful success.
Every time we go, what happens is this:
We make our initial order. Halfway through eating it, we know we will want more, so we make a secondary order. Halfway through that one, we again realize we want just a last bit more of this or that (or anything at all, just MORE!) and so we put in our *third* order. That's how tasty (Word to the wise: don't sleep on the potato croquette, $2.75. Each diner needs their own, and I need two.).

One does grow tired of this surfeit of overly hip brick and mortars, every place trying to outdo the last in atmospheric proximity to a southern California hotspot. Chilly waiters, navel-gazing menus and stratospheric prices.

In contrast, Uroko is a simple walk up, but the food is as good as any of those places, and the atmosphere is nice enough for a casual date - without resorting to a dusty-dine at one of Austin's fecund food trailer parks. It is super fresh, super delicious, super affordable and accessible Japanese food. It's one of my top favorite places in town.

Vegetarian options: Potato croquettes, miso soup, chili garlic edamame, tofu salad, seaweed salad, cucumber salad, Veg Harumaki, avocado hand roll, pickle hand roll, flower & veg hand roll“

“Real birria!! Not beef. Consome was flavorful and had meat. I think tortillas are made in house!! So good! Al pastor has flavor!! Most don't. Tacos de carnitas were mixed with cueritos and very good. Packaged very well to go. El señor que nos atendio muy amable. We will drive to them again. Forgot to take pics cause we were hungry.“
