50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Salt Lake City

“We had a fantastic experience at Rodizio Grill! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the service made the whole meal even better.

A huge shoutout to our waiter, Leo! He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever making us feel rushed. His positive attitude and excellent customer service really stood out and made our visit memorable.

If you're dining here, we definitely recommend asking for Leo. We'll absolutely be back!“

“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.“

“Recommend everything….best MEXICAN FOOD“

“Beautiful deck and delicious true Italian cuisine. Plus I only live a mile away so it’s my favorite restaurant.“

“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.“

“Probably one of the best chai lattes I’ve ever had in my life!“

“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.“

“The Yum Woon Sen was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of tanginess and spice. The Rad Na was equally impressive, with silky noodles and a rich, savory gravy that was incredibly comforting. Both dishes were packed with flavor and definitely exceeded my expectations!“

“Wonderful dining experience! Food was absolutely delicious and our waiter Adam was fantastic! Highly recommend!!“

“Recommend everything….best MEXICAN FOOD“

“I hosted my soon to be daughter-in-laws bridal shower during the afternoon tea and it was the most amazing experiece. The staff went above and beyond to help make the event beautiful and memorable! I live out of state and the staff stayed in constant contact with me to help plan and accomidate my party. They also went way above and beyond to meet the needs of allergies in our group. I cannot say enough good things about our experience and how the service and experience was 10/10!!!“

“Very good good and excellent hospitality“

“A great place to gather with friends or family (or go solo) for terrific pizza and beer. Too many favorites on the menu to mention but it’s the dough that truly separates it from other pizza places. Plus, if you manage to get Tyler waiting your table you’ll be in for top-level service and a few laughs.“

“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!!!!“

“It’s a must for delicious breakfast, lunch or dinner! It’s closest thing to a NY diner, having a generous, amazing menu and is simply the BEST Greek Restaurant in Salt Lake City!! #Kostarocks!“

“Really cute casual place with outdoor eating and fantastic food.“

“Store is busting out at the seams with all the folks who come into eat. Great german food. Happy that they still get so much imported meats and cheeses. Parking is tough to find, and they could stand to get more square footage, but all in all, I love going there.

The owner is a frosty woman. She looks at you like she'd rather stab you in the face then take your credit card.. but when they're the only German store in town with the deli, I'm stupid enough to keep going back.

Honestly they need to figure out how to separate the food buying area from the meat counter. It's too hard to buy the special needs when there's a line out the door for people wanting to buy food from the deli counter.

I'm starting to buy more bottled items from the Russian store. Senfgurken are literally $3 less. Still German. Mustards too. A lot of are imported chocolates are cheaper at Pirate O's. Last year I bought some of the chocolates filled with brandy and the chocolate was so old it was white...“

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

“Absolutely loved this place!! The food and service was excellent. Kinda a bit hidden and hard to navigate parking which is the reason I’m not outright giving 5 stars, but sooooo worth it! The service was quick and food just to die for. Would absolutely recommend! Gluten free and dairy free dishes are available.“

“4.5 stars -- the bread & butter service (a few bucks additional), whipped brie, and seafood pasta were all mind-blowingly, lipsmacking good. But my husband's rose pasta was just so-so -- both of us thought it was a bit disappointing, especially as the waiter said it was their specialty, but it really wasnt that good, and we didn't even felt the need to finish it. Everything else was spectacular thought, including the atmosphere and service. We'll definitely return if we're in the area again, but just avoid the rose pasta.“

“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“

“Mahider has a very warm and welcoming hosts. It is a place to try and enjoy some really good ethnic and authentic food from the Ethiopia, one of the oldest from the African diaspora. Food is one of the first thing that brings people together, and I recommend Mahider if you want to learn more about the rich history what this Ethiopian place has to offer.“

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

“I absolutely loved this place and can’t wait to come back!! We started with the spring rolls and also the 4 Seasons rolls and they were amazing! For lunch I had the S1 Pho and my husband and the Curry fried rice again amazing! We finished our meal with the Vegan Flan and omg sooo good!!! We had no idea coming here that is was a Vegan restaurant and I was a lil worried but it did not disappoint at all. I absolutely loved it and will definitely be back!!!“

“Texas based human here. Always having a hard time finding awesome kolaches in Salt Lake. These are absolutely amazing!“

“Delicious food, friendly service and great vibes all around! Thanks for a great lunch!“

“Wandering the city, Takashi was my destination. I had seen this restaurant as I googled the area. Let me tell you, it was not easy to find. I walked past it twice! I trusted Google maps amd walked in a door, only to realize Google was right! Once I entered, it was like walking into a different world. The quietness of the street gave way to a bustling restaurant! I chose to sit at the sushi bar, my first time. Ceasar explained to me how to order, and made my loan dining less awkward (my first time lone dining in decades). I ordered the spicy edemami and the forest gump roll. Both were good. The sushi was very fresh, and watching the team of chefs making rolls was very enlightening! 10/10 recommend.“

“Wonderful crepes ! Super neat atmosphere ! You definitely don’t want to miss out on trying these crepes !“

“the food was delicious... highly reccomend the nutty Naan bread. host was very knowledgeable and friendly. Great atmosphere.“

“Really terrific meal! Highly recommend this restaurant.“

“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 !!“

“Have come twice now when we visit our daughter and fiancé who live here. Fantastic time. Food, service, atmosphere is amazing. 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.“

“Delicious Thai food in downtown, friendly staff, and good price“

“Great good, quick service. Very unique, fun place.“

“I'm from the east coast. I have eaten at Pats and several other places in Philly. The sandwiches we had today were the bomb.“

“A pleasant surprise for a last minute meal. Will be back soon.“

“Simply the best Salt Lake City has to offer in dining. What an experience!“

“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.“

“This place is AMAZING! Was in town for appointments at Primary Children’s and came here right after. My picky 12 year old was able to find multiple things he loved and the staff was friendly, patient, understanding, and helpful. We ordered cheese burgers either fries and a drink plus onion rings, a shake, and a hand scooped ice cream and it all cost us under $30! The burgers were juicy and delicious, the fries were perfectly done ( crispy but not hard or overdone with a delicious softer inside, not undercooked, and everything was served quickly, kindly, and deliciously. We didn’t have a long wait at all! I loved the atmosphere as did my son! Their shakes are SO THICK you have to eat it with a spoon then try a straw later after it settles / melts a little and it was SO GOOD! Easily the best shake I’ve had in years! Lastly, their fry sauce. I’ve been to a lot of places that serve fry sauce all over the state and this was THE BEST fry sauce I’ve ever had! Not too tangy but not too light on flavor. I loved that they included it for free as well! 100/10 for food and experience!“

“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.“

“Excellent Indian Food and close to Salt Lake City Airport. We landed late evening and they are open until 10:30PM. The food is delicious and the quantity appropriate.
The host is very prompt in making sure the food is served hot. The dal makhani, paneer tikka masala, dabheli, paneer makhani are all excellent items to choose. Even the gulab jamun and kulfi is served fresh….“

“AMAZING pancakes and omelettes!! We ate here twice while in the city. It’s a Must visit from now on when we come. Incredible. Seriously“

“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.“

“The crispy egg rolls are a must just order two when you first sit down. One order is barely enough for one person! House rice always good.“

“amazing place so much space and the food is amazing! burrito came out big and smothered it was perfect 🙏 thank you guys loved the agua fresca de tamarindo too! 😇“

“if you are from Peru and are missing home this is a must. I have gone there twice and the food is nothing but amazing. Also, very friendly staff. I will keep going back every time I visit utah.“

“Good food, excellent service, and such a warm, welcoming atmosphere! From the moment we walked in, we felt comfortable and appreciated by the friendly staff. The restaurant was clean, inviting, and had a relaxed environment that made our meal even more enjoyable.

The food was absolutely delicious, and each dish was prepared with great flavor and attention to detail. I ordered the Bún Bò Huế (spicy Vietnamese beef noodle soup), which was rich, aromatic, and full of tender meat, fresh herbs, and perfectly cooked noodles. The broth had a wonderful balance of savory, spicy, and comforting flavors that made every bite satisfying. My husband chose the Bánh Mì Thịt (Vietnamese sandwich with seasoned meat), and he loved the combination of flavorful meat, crisp pickled vegetables, fresh herbs, and the perfectly toasted baguette that provided just the right amount of crunch. Our daughter ordered the Cơm Heo (rice served with pork), which was beautifully presented and featured tender, well-seasoned pork served alongside fluffy rice and fresh vegetables that she thoroughly enjoyed.

To accompany our meal, we also ordered a Matcha Boba Tea (green tea milk tea with tapioca pearls). It was smooth, creamy, and refreshing, with a rich matcha flavor that wasn’t overly sweet. The chewy boba pearls added a fun texture and made it the perfect drink to enjoy alongside our food.

Everything we ordered tasted fresh and authentic, and the portions were generous. Combined with the attentive service and welcoming atmosphere, it made for a wonderful dining experience. We left happy, full, and already looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Vietnamese cuisine, delicious drinks, excellent service, and a welcoming place to gather with family and friends.“
