50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Salt Lake City

“I absolutely love Cafe Shambala and highly recommend stopping by! Every time we host family or guests visiting, we bring them to eat here. Both the lunch buffet and the dinner menu are delicious. Our favorites are the spiced potatoes, the marinated chicken, the momos, and the traditional rice pudding dessert. My husband and I have never had less than a 5-star experience, especially with the excellent service. My only suggestion for improvement would be to more clearly post a drink menu during lunch, specifically for the refreshing mango lassi and other tasty drinks available. Last time I was there, the only posting of this information was a faded printer paper taped on the outside windows.“

“Recommend everything….best MEXICAN FOOD“

“My favorite Mexican food in Salt Lake City. I don’t get to go very often but when I’m in town I never miss it. Love it.“

“Elegant experience. I brought my two adult children to Afternoon Holiday Tea as a Christmas gift. we had a wonderful time. The food was delicious and the tea was lovely. The live harp music was delightful as well. We may make this a new tradition.“

“my family and I really enjoy Mr. Shabu. We have mainly been for the sushi, and have really liked it. The Playboy Roll, which is sort of my go to roll, I'm torn if they are number 1 or 2 when it comes to the place I like it the most. but we have enjoyed many other rolls their. but we also appreciate their wall of ramen which is great for my daughter who is trying to like more sushi, but isn't all the way there yet. it make it easy for her to still get a full dinner, but also try some sushi as well. Any ways, if your looking for some good sushi, give Mr. Shabu a try.“

“We had an excellent experience. Our server, Laila, was very kind, attentive, and always made sure we were taken care of. Our meat server, Arthur, was amazing, very professional, friendly, and served the meats perfectly. They both made our experience even better. We will definitely be coming back!“

“The food was delicious and our server Jolayne was fast and made sure we were well taken care of our entire time in the restaurant! Thank you for the amazing service and food we will definitely be back!!!!“

“Went to this restaurant for our 9th wedding anniversary. It's price range varies from $45-$85 per entree but definitely lives up to the hype. I had the citrus butter cast iron Alaskan halibut and a side of grilled cauliflower with garlic herb sauce, and a Beehive jack rabbit Gin Commander cocktail. My husband got the Wagyu hanger 8 0z steak, mashed potatoes, and The Espolon Tequila Hefe cocktail. For dessert we got the churros drizzled with raspberry sauce and a scoop of vanilla ice cream to share. Our waiter Kaden was excellent and on top of things, Jose was our busser and was very prompt, professional, and kind, and the chef was excellent and got our food out in a reasonable amount of time. Best Halibut I have ever had and best steak he has ever had. Thank you for an incredible evening. -Ashley and Emmanuel #wagyusteak #alaskanhalibut #churros #gincocktail #tequilacocktail #espolontequila #beehivejackrabbitgin“

“The food!! The Service!!! The ambience!!!“

“Excellent experience from when we walked in the door until we picked up our car from the valet!! Everyone was friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable, and service oriented. Truly a great experience with excellent food!! Can't recommend it enough.“

“If you're looking for the most delicious Thai food ever, this is the place to go! The papaya salad is amazing, and don’t even get me started on the mango sticky rice! Everything we tried was absolute heaven on a plate.
The staff made us feel welcome the moment we walked in and our family was well taken care of throughout the entire meal. Can’t wait to come back and try more dishes. Highly recommend!“

“Grand opening specials and delicious food keep us coming back twice in a week now. It is located next to a local Target, so they have a great position to succeed with the flow of traffic and a large parking lot. I hope these specials remain the same or similar, the food economy needs places like this! Food should be affordable and tasty. You guys do both, excellent job.“

“Excellent Thai food, one of my new favorites. I don't know how I'd never heard about this place, but luckily my friends mentioned it and so we made dinner plans. We got 4-5 dishes and shared them family style and everything was amazing. Good sized portions, fantastic flavors, and wonderful service. Apparently, they have an awesome lunch menu as well, which I plan to try soon. This is exactly the kind of local place you want to support in your neighborhood and city. Can't wait to go again. Oh, and by the way, the prices are extremely reasonable, which is a huge plus given the current inflation in prices for just about everything.“

“Excellent! that cookie oh my. I am obsessed“

“Our first experience with Slackwater tonight and it didn’t disappoint. A friend recommended this place and she was right… their crust is just perfect… the crunch, the flavor, the chew. And we have another favorite pizzeria that we think Slackwater just topped. Definitely coming back.“

“Tonight my family went to Manoil’s. Wow. What a joy. I can’t recall what these dishes were called so beautifully on the menu—but I’ve tried my best in being simple in describing them. We ordered the risotto, orzo, lamb, octopus, olives, potatoes, and arugula salad. Every single thing was so freshly prepared, dressed, and cooked to invite delight. Thank you so much.“

“Tomorrow morning at 5 am at the Olympics.... Italy will play Japan in womens hockey.

I am Italian and I live in Philadelphia. An old rugby teammate is Japanese and lives in San Francisco.

Why should you care?

Lifelong friends make bets, that's why.

If Italy wins, he owes me dinner at La Scarols's in Chicago.

But if Japan wins.... we are headed HERE!!!! That should tell you something!

Boys will be boys.“

“Yummy flavorful pizza, pasta and more!!“

“I think that Ruth’s Chris steakhouse is my most favorite and most popular restaurant for me to go there and eat really good food from there and my favorite food from there was there chicken breast and mashed potatoes and lobster bisque soup and hot buttery rolls and chocolate cake for dessert and it was really good and delicious and I would totally eat it all again and touring the restaurant with the owner and meeting the staff was also a fun experience to also and if I were to rate the restaurant on a scale of one to ten I would definitely give it a solid ten out of ten rating from my time visiting the restaurant and I would totally recommend the restaurant to anyone who would like to go to the restaurant to eat there and enjoy the experience there !!“

“This burger changed my life. Pastrami, corned beef, beef, gyro meat, I am feeling sleepy now. This sandwich is the truth. After a horrible breakfast experience in Payson IHOP, Apollo has redeemed Utah for food single-handedly“

“This is our absolute favorite pizza place in Utah! Their lunch special is an amazing deal! Pizza, a drink, and delicious salad for cheaper then you can get fast food! They use high quality ingredients and the house made dough is my favorite! The house ranch I could drink it is so good and love dipping my pizza into it! The service is always great as well!“

“We had not been to Log Haven in years. We are finding a restaurant each month to dine out. A GREAT choice. The food was excellent and well prepared along with the presentation. For as busy it was, we were surprised that the noise level was fine. Our server, Savanna, was excellent! My wife asked her about several items on the menu and she explained with an unbelievable description. Thank you for an enjoyable evening of dining.“

“I’d share a photo of our food but we devoured it quickly and enjoyed it immensely. Jagdish was our server and we were extremely happy with how quick the food came out, drinks were refilled, and holy cow, the TASTE! We had the shrimp curry, chicken tikka masala, and an adventurous chicken dish that my husband can’t remember now. Mango ice cream was lovely, make sure you get an appetizer because it’s worth it! Definitely coming back!“

“I had such a wonderful experience at Taqueria 27 downtown. Adrien was my server and they were truly amazing. They were so attentive and thoughtful and made sure I had everything I needed the entire time. I ordered the Poblano Chicken platter and it was incredibly delicious and full of flavor. The food, the service, and the overall atmosphere were all so positive and welcoming. I will definitely be coming back for the yummy food and great vibes.“

“I’ve been here. . . oh, maybe 100 times the past two years. I absolutely LOVE it. They don’t use lard in their beans, their tortillas are vegan, and the fajita veggies are the best. Vegan burritos, ftw. Thank you, Carl, et al, for providing my this urban respite.“

“My daughter and I were just traveling through Salt Lake City and stopped to have a snack at the Corner Brew Pub in the B terminal of the airport. We were greated by the manager, who started us off with waters and our drink order from the moment he sat us. He was delightful, had a great smile, and was clearly happy to pitch in! Our server, Sarah, could not have been sweeter! She checked in on us often, made sure we were well taken care of, and had such a lovely presence!

It’s rare in an airport that you would get such great service - it was genuine and with a smile. We travel a lot in generally stick to private lounges, but this experience rejuvenated my faith in the airport restaurant experience!“

“We got served by Glenda E and she was rather rude and not very friendly, not as nice as the other older ladies who serve there. Half way through dinner dhe starts vacuuming near our table like that rather gross when were trying to eat. I got the chicken fried steak I was most of the way through and I bit into a piece of plastic bread tie! Glenda mumbled a half hearted apology and took it off the bill but no management came to speak to me and apologize. Not impressed with the service or meal.“

“A great place for a wonderful meal.“
