50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Madison

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

“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!“

“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.“

“Great pizza and nice ambiance as usual. What made our evening even better were the warm smile and friendly personality of our waitress Mel! She nicely engaged in joking conversation, went above and beyond to accommodate our special request, and frequently checked in to make sure we had everything we needed. Outstanding food and service — we’ll definitely be coming back!“

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

“Been going for years and now take my toddler once a week. I love walking in, everyone knowing us, sometimes getting our regular table (if we're early enough) and chatting with some of the other regulars. Prices are great, you get a ton of food and the staff is always friendly. Extra bonus they open early for my early riser toddler!!“

“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🍄“

“We held a birthday party at State Line Distillery on short notice due to weather concerns with the outdoor venue that was planned. They were exceptionally welcoming and extremely accommodating. So many guests commented on what a great space State Line offers—both inside and outside. Not to mention the delicious high-quality drinks and friendly, helpful staff. High praise and top recommendations for this local gem. 💜“

“I immigrated from Russia as a child and I’ve searched for a taste of home for years. As dramatic as it may sound, my first taste of Paul’s Pel’meni had me sobbing in my car. It tasted just like babushka’s cooking. I don’t think anyone can understand just how much that little bite of home really means to me, but I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude. Спасибо вам большое!“

“The spicy salmon and prickly pear margarita were amazing!“

“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!“

“Our waitress was really friendly and nice. She gave us recommendations and told us about the restaurant history.“

“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.“

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

“We ate here last year for Valentine’s Day! Amazing ambiance and food. Highly recommended to all 10 out of 10 stars“

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

“Everything was phenomenal, my family and I were very pleased! We tried the catfish appetizers, as well as the cheesecurds and fried pickles….all delicious!! Brisket was absolutely delicious as well as the pulled pork! We will definitely be back when we’re in Madison! Our fave place now“

“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.“

“This is our new favorite Indian restaurant in Madison. The food here is so delicious, and everyone is so friendly. Don't be deterred by the fact that it's in what used to be a fast-food building.“

“Great experience…everything from the ambiance to the waitstaff to the drinks, appetizers, entree, desserts and coffee were amazing!“

“Great chicken and love the chicha morada“

“Their sides are so tasty, even the most devoted carnivores might be caught sneaking a forkful.“

“One of my favorite pizza restaurants around. Try the Macho Nacho!“

“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!“

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

“Great friendly staff in an awesome atmosphere to enjoy any games. great food as well.“

“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.“

“Good food and great service. What’s not to like?“

“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.“

“This place is such a hidden little gem. The food is always fantastic, the folks working there are always amazing. There is usually a wait so expect it, it will be worth it. You nuke me every single time with the medium spice level and I love it.“

“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!“

“Could not be better. A brewer’s brewery.“

“Amazingly fresh seafood and beautifully done steaks with equally great side dishes, large enough to share! Go early and take advantage of their fabulous happy hour drinks and apps. Always a good time and a local favorite. Top notch service as well. Recommend for a night out, date night or special occasion.“

“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!“

“Thank you Lily and Tip Top for hosting some weary travelers with amazing food and a dog friendly patio. We had the best food, and the patio was like an oasis, beautiful!“

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

“I have been going here since I was little and now officially living in the neighborhood again, I would consider myself a regular! The food is such classic breakfast, diner food and it is always great and consistent every time. They also are always so efficient and fast! The food comes out hot every time and they always have your coffee filled. This family run business is one of the best breakfast spots in town!“

“Excelente !!!💕🌷recomendado !!“

“the People there were so friendly and easy to talk to service was spot on! summer sausage sandwich was so good. variety of sandwiches and burger to chose from we'll be back“

“I don't have a sweet tooth, so their baked goods are irrelevant to me, and I've yet to try their entrees, so I'm no real judge of their menu - I'm here to sing the praises of the sticky rice wrapped in leaves (bamboo?) - It's the blandest thing that I find satisfying (And I enjoy the real hot Sichuan up Park St at Ichiban!) The bit of chicken, the soft peanuts, the subtle herbal flavor imparted to the rice by the leaf wrap - It's just good (The rice is certainly cooked in broth, verging on pudding, but it's not any sweeter than the rice alone might make it.) It's comfort food, and it will keep me coming back, especially at $4. Think medium/ large baked potato with butter or sour cream for an equivalent lipid-starch satisfaction.
(2 minutes each in the microwave if you carry them away cold.)“

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

“We attended a family birthday gathering of about 28 people. Check this place out! Friendly great service with awesome food menu & bar. I highly recommend!“

“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.“

“Y'all.…. this place is out of this world!! Everything from the wine, appetizers, entrée desserts and coffee are just phenomenal!! Do not pass this place up! I love the line of this chef… The way the music goes, that’s the we dance! And that’s exactly what this place is all about. Everyone loves this place! Tony Bennet and famous athletes from all over - including Reggie Bush!“
