50 Best Vegan Restaurants near West Lake Hills

“I ordered 2 large pizzas and 1 large garden salad to go. The pizza and salad were perfect, and the Sal was top-notch!! Will definitely go back to Baldinucci the next time I am in Austin.“

“Loved Sway make sure to ask for a seat at the bar upstairs - amazing city view!“

“So love the food here that I meet friends once a week to have lunch. The rotating menu to include seasonal foods makes the regular attendance a pleasure. The offering of high quality vegetable dishes also is a plus. I prefer to eat healthy, nutritious foods so Flower Child is high on my list. Also, prefer the "order at the counter" business model. Sometimes, I even order online and the meal is waiting for me. The only downside to this estalbishment is the LOUD MUSIC. I do not understand why they have to blast music in the dining room--especially when the dining room is full and people are struggling to hear one another. I eat outdoors when there are tables but these go fast. I recommend that you go to this place on off hours, sit outside, and eat healthy.“

“First time here. Kelly delivered exceptional service with impeccable professionalism, demonstrating a remarkable balance of friendliness and courtesy. Their promptness, graciousness, and unwavering excellence truly set them apart. This team truly embodies the epitome of excellence.“

“This was my first visit to MOD Pizza, and I found the food and service to be satisfactory. The young man at the counter could have been more enthusiastic, but I understand that he may not have been particularly invested in his job. All of the staff were polite and courteous (think Chick-fil-A), which was appreciated. The pizza was delicious, but the pizza cookie was not to my taste. I will likely return to this location in the future, but I will probably order a smaller pizza next time.“

“There are a LOT of gluten free options, and the sushi is incredible!“

“Micheal brought back soft serve after Mission Burrito went full cocoon. This stuff is amazing. The new digs (new to me) on South Lamar are what everyone likes: simple, modern. I’ll be back for the burgers. The ice cream was cookin’! —Robb“

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

“Just completed a tour of the Central Texas Barbecue Scene. Visited Snow's BBQ-Lexington, Louie Mueller-Taylor, Kreus Market, Smitty's and Black's-Lockhart, The Salt Lick- Driftwood and Franklin's in Austin. It was great seeing the venues and the family history at these historic sites. I visited Franklin's in the past and felt it was the best brisket I had ever eaten in my life. I am a skeptic when it comes to famous barbecue joints. I must say that Franklin's BBQ was far superior to all of the restaurants I visited with no one even a close second. Aaron's attention to detail from the service, choice of briskets, the cook, the wrap, the holding and even the slicing of the final product is evident in every aspect of his trade. I was lucky enough to run into him at the restaurant and he happily talked BBQ with me. Franklin's may not have the long history of muti-generational BBQ in Central Texas, but he has figured it all out at a level that I have yet to see equaled by the best venues in the country. This is a bucket list restaurant for those who really enjoy BBQ. It is well worth the wait in line“

“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.“

“I had been years ago before the pandemic and I did not remember it being this good. They have increased their quality. Between the salad bar (which has beyond improved), the meat (get the ribeye and tenderloin, amazing) and the service, we had a fantastic experience. Robert took care to make sure our glass was filled and our meat requests were filled. The price seems high, but very worth it.“

“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!“

“Everything was good, but best brisket ever…“

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

“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).“

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

“all vegan food that was very tasty! service was quick and efficient, not the friendliest but got the job done!! the food definitely made up for everything, especially the amazing baked goods!!!! 😍😍“

“These burritos are food for the soul. 12/10 recommend the buffalo burrito“

“I visited the Rebel Cheese shop in Austin while there on business. The staff was friendly and helpful. I ordered the Save A Chicken, Ride A Pimento sandwich and carrot cake slice to go. The sandwich was delicious. The chicken was just a faux meat patty, but the pimento cheese was amazing. It definitely set this sandwich apart from others I have tried during my travels. It came with a side. I chose the pasta salad. The portion of the side was small, but after the monster sandwich, I didn't need a side. However, the pasta salad was also very well done. I also ordered a couple of cheeses to bring home with me and they were kind enough to give me an ice freezer pack to help keep the cheese cold during my flight home. When I got back to my hotel, I realized they had forgotten my carrot cake slice. I was disappointed, but had already determined after tasting the sandwich that I was going back the next day. When I returned the next day, they were kind enough to give me a piece of carrot cake for free. This trip I ordered the Gentle Reuben. This was also a fantastic sandwich. I got the potato salad side this time and it was equally well made. Great Job Rebel Cheese! Keep up the good work!“

“Absolutely the best vegan pizza in Austin! Hands down! 💜🍕🍕🍕“

“Great Food and awesome ambiance.“

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

“Such an INCREDIBLE space. The food was so delicious and the portions were large. I was a little worried it wouldn’t be seasoned b/ it’s so wholistic but dang was I wrong ! It was SO flavorful and tasty. Wouldn’t change a thing ! Everyone was so friendly and welcoming . Love the whole vibe and all the accompanying shops. Will definitely be back !“

“I've been thinking about how to write this review since last night, when I visited Bouldin Creek Cafe for dinner after a long day of travel.
Normally I don't have to think very hard, but this place definitely has me searching for new adjectives to describe just how unbelievably good my food was.
Let me just keep it simple. The breakfast tacos contained tofu scramble that I will never forget. I'm going to tell my kids about this tofu scramble. If I ever become a professor, I'm going to teach a class about this tofu scramble. It was the most incredible application of flavor to taste buds I think I've ever had.
The staff were also extremely kind, knowledgeable, and very willing to tolerate my menu-indecision ?.
Even the other customers were kind and friendly. That isn't normally something you can really credit to the establishment, but I have no doubt that the quality of food and the general atmosphere of the cafe had at least something to do with attracting such nice people.
I don't care if you are vegan, vegetarian, omnivorous, or have never eaten a vegetable in your life. You owe it to yourself to come and eat here.

Dietary restrictions: EVERYTHING is either vegan or can be made vegan.“

“Yes, you can get pizza with vegan options most places but I have received dairy cheese by accident at conventional pizza places more than a few times. So it makes sense go out of your way and support an all vegan option in my book. The couple that run Possum Pizza are a delight and the pizza is wonderful. The bac n Mac is my favorite for something unique. Located in the vegan food truck park with the convenience of two other vegan food trucks and a vegan milkshake spot!“

“Ra’ad is a master of his craft! In addition to the bbq taco, I had cacao pudding for dessert. It was delicious! Plus, I grabbed a bag of sea moss. ATx Food Co. serves all you need for the health of your mind, body and soul. Excellent customer service! Much appreciated!

Vegetarian options: Delicious homemade GF tortillas are perfection!“

“Highly recommended for top quality vegan food!! Thank god we have one in South Austin!!“

“Only next level Japanese dining enthusiasts would be able to immediately recognize that they have chosen well. If you are lucky enough to discover the Happy Hour menu then you’ve hit the jackpot. Do yourself a favor and go because ain’t nobody have dry aged fish! What?!? Yes this separates Lucky Robot from the rest of the Japanese places in Austin. Put it on the bucket list folks!“

“Great place to hang with friends! Noisy, but that’s part of the atmosphere. Good number of screens around to keep up with games.

Parking: Great staff!

Kid-friendliness: Not much for kids to do other than a couple of games in the back.“

“Amazing food! Every dish we tried was DE-LICIUOS! Wait staff and hosts are lovely people. Atmosphere and vibe is warm and inviting here. My only suggestion for this restaurant is that they turn the volume down on the music. It really is WAY TOO loud. Other than that, visit often so that you can try the entire menu!“

“Zucchini Kill is a fantastic bakery. Everything is gluten free, vegan and delicious. The lemon blueberry cupcakes are especially amazing.“

“Loved the experience and the food was so amazing ! 😻 The dining area was beautiful and the wait staff was so awesome! I highly recommend this restaurant 💕“

“The food was amazing!! 5* The burgers are where is at!! We sampled different options from the menu but the OG Cheeseburger was absolutely the BEST!! I've ever had!! 💜🤩“

“This was a cold vibe. Great vegan eats and a fun outing!“

“WOW OH WOW. first, best vegan food i’ve had ever. my partner and i travel and try spots out often but let me tell you this is SOUL FOOD. second, Marlon hopped out when we were reviewing the menu and gave us insight to the INCREDIBLE intentional and sacred energy they craft into this refreshing, unique, and delicious food. third, every staff member had the best vibe it felt like family. food came out quick and the portions are perfect. i legitimately would move to Austin just to eat here frequently. the beer battered cauliflower was incredible: sauceyyy, spicy, tangy, savory. i couldn’t put it down. fries are absolutely perfect. the dime bag lions mane wings were healing for the body and mind. if i didn’t miss a perfectly fried “wing”. we also got the oysters and they were just as divine. it is the perfect nostalgia to good ol fried happiness. absolutely what an unforgettable and incredible experience. kindness, passion, and love radiate from these amazing folks and through their nourishing food. you can tell they are truly here for the community. most amazing food experience. 100% recommend for ALL people who love good classic southern food. 🌱🌞 ALSO we loved our experience so much we purchased a round 2 to-go to eat later after our evening with friends. *approximately 9 hours later* we put the cauliflower patty in the oven with the fries at 250• for 20 +/- minutes (no toppings just patty and fries) then after that time passes, turned broiler to high setting for 5-10 minutes throwing the bun in the tray (no pickles, tomato, or cabbage) then we rebuilt the sandwich and it was incredible!!!! fries and sandwich tasted just as awesome as the first round (round two wings didn’t make it home😉). 💗✨“

“Sonny’s Backyard is a fantastic bar with a lot to offer. There’s plenty of parking, which is always a bonus, and the vibe is perfect for a laid-back night out.

The food trailers on-site serve up some great eats, and you can enjoy live music that plays well into the night—a rare treat for this area. The bar itself is cozy and charming, with a cute interior and a pool table that still takes quarters.

What really sets Sonny’s apart is that it stays open past midnight, making it a go-to spot for late-night fun. Whether you’re there for the music, the food, or just to hang out, Sonny’s Backyard is a great choice for a good time.“

“We stopped by late this morning to treat my 3 year old to a cupcake. We got the strawberry cupcake and vanilla cupcake. They were both delicious! The shop itself is cute and the staff are very friendly. Next time I will have to try the blue velvet.“

“6 out of 5 on food :) They are clean and keep their outfits clean and proper, which I care about most when I eat from a food truck.
I am sick of seeing long, messy-haired people handling food without hair nets, not putting their hair up, not using gloves, or touching people's cards with the same glove they prepare the food with. Don't even make me start on nails. Anyway, their kolaches are delicious.“

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

“This restaurant in the South Congressional District specialises in Mediterranean flavours and serves classic dishes from Israel, Lebanon, Turkey and Greece. The restaurant's stylish setting is ideal for fine dining and high-end drinks (The Texas Tasty).“

“Great food! So glad to have just learned they have one where I live!“

“Best coffee spot in town. Love stopping by for all my coffee and puppy treat needs!“

“Delicious gelato for a great price. Plus the owner is incredibly kind.“

“No trip to Austin is complete without a visit to Torchy’s! The tacos are filling and consistently tasty (my fave is the Democrat!) The staff is also super friendly at the SoCo location. Shoutout to Michelle for giving us New Jersey folks a warm welcome in Austin!“

“Had fun catching up with friends here! 🤸🤸🤸“

“Amazing food! Excellent service! Great atmosphere! Thank you to the team at Phoebe's Diner downtown for their awesome hospitality!“

“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!“

“This place is another delishhh spot�“

“Didn’t get a chance to enjoy their brick and mortar location but did get a chance to dine at the ACL stall. Brisket sandwich was exceptional. Dude hooked up a vegi frito pie on the house as they were shutting down for the night. . Kind gesture and tasty. Perfect laying for a booze filled belly. Great food, great people.“

“Our waitress; Carli was amazing! The atmosphere was perfect! We will definitely be coming back again, when we visit Austin! I got the Chilean sea bass and my boyfriend got the lamb chops. For apps we got ahi tuna and oysters. Everything was a 10/10“
