50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Madison

“Food was great. They were so friendly. We are looking forward to the next time we are in town so we can try some more of the menu“

“JustVeggiez 100% Vegan is just plain one of the best restaurants in Madison. Burgers, pizza, wraps, lasagna, big salads, teriyaki, burritos and tacos, GF options...the menu is large and so varied. Plus they have acai bowls, desserts, milkshakes, ice cream and cookies! There's a gorgeous big counter complete with video screens, or table seating where you can people watch on State Street, and the orange and green walls and artwork give a fun vibe. You can even order weekly meal plans for home delivery, and they do catering, too. Alcohol license is in the works, for those interested in that, and they will have outdoor seating starting in the spring. I personally love the Strawberry Walnut Salad, the Lo Mein, the Reuben sandwich, and the BBQ Tofu Wrap, not to mention the vegan cheese curds and the roasted potatoes side dish.“

“Thanks Rodney P for a great dining experience!“

“We had heard good things about Lallande and we were not disappointed. We ate at the bar which I would highly recommend. Our server was Nina and she made the evening fun. I had the salmon and my husband had the lamb chops. Generous portions and absolutely delicious. We also had the chicken pate which was so good. But the highlight for us was the carrot tarte. A must have, if you go.The owner Ann Marie was working in the kitchen keeping all the balls in the air, but she took time to visit with us and made us feel extra welcome. Do yourself a favor and dine at Lallande on Monroe St. Perhaps we'll see you there because we'll be back! Five stars.“

“Always amazing here. Food , atmosphere, staff, and great cocktails to boot.“

“We love all Sal's locations. The downtown space was perfect for our group of hungry parents between shuttling our kids to homecoming events. The food was delicious as always, and the staff was fantastic and welcoming. Thanks so much for great hospitality!“

“Dined here for lunch today and loved the vegan options! Menu is clearly marked so we didn’t have to modify anything, which was highly refreshing. Shout out to Living on the Veg sushi set and the crunch salad, both solid choices. Bright and welcoming interior, with equally welcoming staff! We will be back again and again. Take no shiitake🍄“

“Had a great dinner on a Saturday night. Dined at a late seating and staff was very friendly and welcoming. Dishes were great, the deviled eggs were a great starter for our table and the entrees were big portions with a lot going on (on a good way). The farm to table and seasonal ingredients really accompanied the main proteins. I had schnitzel which was great. Others had the massive ribeye for 2 and boullabaisse and everyone enjoyed their meals.
Would done here again next time we visit Madison.“

“Had a business trip in Madison, WI this week. The restaurant is close by so we reserved the seats here. Gosh, it certainly didn’t disappoint us. The sushi rolls were amazing and the sashimi was fresh and delicious. It was pleasant to dine outdoors there and the service was excellent too. Great food to try!“

“We were in town for a concert and stopped here on our way back home. The food and service were top notch! Very fresh tasting food and amazing coffee!! It was a happy accident we ended here from a random apple map search. So glad we stumbled upon them!“

“Service during happy hour was perfect. Loved Kate❤️“

“I’ve been here about10x and have never been disappointed . Lots of yummy veganized options of classic meaty items“

“Delicious food, cozy atmosphere, and very nice staff.“

“Absolutely amazing food. I almost cried from the flavor bringing me back to my childhood. Brought our leftovers home and I think they got even better. We will definitely be back.“

“The best sandwiches I’ve found in madison. Chill atmosphere, incredible food. Probably the best meatball sub I’ve ever had. All I wanted today was a sandwich and couldn’t have prepared for the absolute beauty that was placed in front of me, quite quickly I might add. Check this place out or you’re absolutely missing out!“

“We had Greenbush Bakery Doughnuts for dessert at our wedding and they were such a hit! 10/10 recommend. Amazing service, delicious & beautiful doughnuts! Such a fun treat that everyone raved about!“

“Great chicken and love the chicha morada“

“Food was absolutely delicious, so much so we finished the lamb curry before I remembered to take a pic! Here’s the beef momo served stir fry with veggie style. Add this spot to your list if you haven’t been! $5 beers and affordable wines too!“

“This cafe has many delicious options for food. It however does not have celiac safe options. The cross contamination is too high. They do note this if you call them by stating that they can't guarantee there isn't. But I would not eat here if you have celiacs because I did twice and it made me incredibly sick. Again the food in my opinion is delicious, it just isn't celiacs safe.“

“Staff was really kind and attentive to all the customers and I loved seeing them have genuine conversations with customers.
The hot apple cider was also really hot so it kept me warm in the negative degree weather. The apple cider does taste like every single other apple cider and doesn't taste unique and not to mention it being 7 bucks. I guess the price was worth the work the staff put in though.
Would definitely recommend!“

“Muy buena comida muy acogedor ambiente muy tranquilo me encanta,“

“Finally stopped in after watching people rave about them online for almost a year. I ordered a chocolate orange croissant thing and let me tell you when I say that thing blew my mind like wow. I knew it was good from people raving about it but I was so impressed dropped the last bite on the floor and about died I was so sad 😅 the lovely lady also gave me a free shortie I was eyein up 10/10 recommend so good I will be back“

“I wish I had taken this photos of the food before I dug in. Delicious chilequiles, and even better ranchos huervos. The food is extremely fresh and flavorful. It's a unique take on something I've seen in every form, but they get it right with little surprises in every bite. Do yourself a favor and get the orange juice. The fresh sweetness really helps stabilize the slight spice and heaviness of the food.“

“Highly recommend!!! Great place!!! Very beautiful ambience 🤩 so awesome I’d recommend everything as they have a lovely menu with delicious foods and beverages especially love their Boba 🧋 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️“

“Everything was fantastic, definitely exceeded my expectations. Flavors were well balanced, ingredients were fresh. Will definitely go back.“

“First time Celiac visiting and oh my gosh.... best gf bakery I've had and there isn't a worry that I will get sick because it's a dedicated gf facility! Staff was super friendly and if it's your first visit, you even get a free sample of their fab chocolate. Will definitely be back!“

“Our waiter was very polite, kind, and prompt. The food was a cut way above a typical ethnic food restaurant. Very unique as well as delicious choices. Definitely ranks at the top of my list of places to dine. Five stars!“

“One of my favorite foods is pastys, I was excited to learn about this place, otherwise you would find them normal in the u.p area of Wisconsin. All of the varieties are great! Had the chicken tikka masala one today, was awesome! I do like they wrap it in foil, because my 40min drive home it's still warm!“

“My wife & I are vegan so we’re always looking for new places to try. We decided to order some food for pick up & they DID NOT disappoint! Their loaded fries are now one of my favorites & I can’t wait to go back again!“

“Fantastic authentic Korean food, and super nice folks. I go there every time I visit Madison.“

“Love the charming European Grand Cafe vibes. An abundance of outdoor seating is available. Our server was very attentive and had great recommendations for drinks and food. One of the smoothest bloodys I have had. Food was absolutely delicious! What a great spot for brunch and enjoying a view of Madison.“

“everything was amazing. the spices, the flavors, and the iced coffee... next level. it will not disappoint.“

“Good stuff. Worth stopping in for sure!“

“I had the lunch enchiladas and they were the best I’ve had in a while! True authentic Mexican flavor and style!“

“Always amazing salads and great service too. Love to eat here when I am in town. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I hired Beef Butter BBQ for my wedding and they did a FABULOUS job. The food was to die for, the employees extremely helpful and kind, and I could not be happier!“

“my favorite place in Madison. service is always so friendly. I loved this place even when they were at the old location. I am so happy they have been so popular and recognized in the new location; they absolutely deserve it.“

“The Tom Yum is amazing AF“

“Good drinks menu but the food was so-so. Flavors unremarkable. No information on the menu for those who are lactose or gluten intolerant which is easy to flag on menus these days. And the random delivery of small plates, which was to be expected, could have been a little bit more even for our table of four. And worth letting us know, when we order, which dishes might take quite a bit longer to prepare and deliver. Nice ambiance and good lighting. 3/5.“

“This is the best poke in Madison. The portions are huge, and the prices are extremely reasonable. The fish is fresh and I have never felt weary about eating the raw fish here. I love that you write on the ticket to build your own bowl!! The owners are so kind, one even got me a glass of water when I ate there and didn't buy a drink. I love supporting them!!“

“College visit with the daughter and we dined here with friends on Saturday 28th Sept and being originally from the UK, and seeing the fish and chips were haddock (not cod) I immediately had to have them and they were the best fish and chips this side of the “pond” having put up with 12 years of “just ok” fish and chips, these were amazing. Not only were the fish and chips good, but every dish was a winner. I am now praying my daughter gets into the college as I will be a regular here.“

“After 29 years of living near Madison, we finally went for dinner last night. Everything was delicious- mocktail, bruschetta, both pasta dishes (mushroom truffle & sausage rigatoni), as well as the light, fluffy desserts (butterscotch pudding & cheesecake with rhubarb/strawberry compote). Super happy our waiter, James, sent us home with an extra baguette & recommended making French toast - which we did today! We’ll be back with friends and recommending to others!“

“We have been to Nonno's at least 4 times in the past few years! This restaurant is the absolute best Italian food our family has ever had. The service is top notch! Our son Sean loves going here and always orders the Chicken Alfredo with lots and lots of cheese. I always order Spaghetti Bolognese which never disappoints!! Thank you to our waiter and the staff for your wonderful hospitality and service.“

“Vegan option was yummy! Thanks for the labels! Will be back“

“Friendly neighborhood coffee shop. The coffee is robust; the atmosphere is mellow. The back patio is a quiet, relaxing hideaway.“

“We were visiting Madison for a business trip. Kelly at Morgan's shoes suggested we go here for oysters. We had the most amazing dinner, oysters on the half shell and wrapped it up with an unbelievably good coffee and date ice cream 😋 Our experience was so good we decided to go back a second night! Oysters and dinner were fantastic! Too full for dessert Such a beautiful location, great service and delicious food. Highly recommend 👌“

“My girlfriend and I really enjoyed the friendly staff and delicious food and drinks at Alchemy! I highly recommend it!“

“Good food and nice place!“

“Tiger roll, butterfish roll, these are the must try!“
