The Most Delicious Vegetarian in Mesa

Farm & Craft

★★★★☆ 3.9 (1586) • $$

"This is a wonderful brunch spot in Scottsdale! Surprisingly there wasn't a wait when I visited, despite the restaurant being very busy. You can order at the counter and there is plenty of staff to check on you and bring out orders. I had the farmhouse which consisted of eggs (your choice), sautéed veggies and toast. It also comes with protein and they're able to substitute tofu. Everything was delicious and I especially loved the house jam The restaurant is very open with lots of natural light and great ambiance. I would definitely come here again!"

Veggie Village

★★★★★ 4.7 (460) • $$

"My goodness! Now... I saw the photos and said this looks just like the food I used to eat when I ate meat... let me see how good it is. First of all, everything on the menu sounds delicious. I got the General Tso Chicken and that first bite... oh my. It had a good crunch on it and then went tender and the flavor... ON POINT! If I was staying in AZ longer, I would have gone back and tried all the things. The drinks are also delicious. I grabbed a pink passion. Since I dined in, I had to control my food dancing but trust me when I say you need to visit this spot. Seems like they do a lot of to-go orders but sitting inside is peaceful. When I came in I was greeted and seated instantly. The staff was very attentive. I also appreciated the level of care around cleanliness. This will be a stop every time I'm in town. Any wait to bring a travel buddy with me."

Grace Thai Downtown - Chandler

★★★★☆ 3.9 (433) • $$

"I can't believe it has taken us so long to return to Charm Thai! My husband and I stopped in on a Friday evening around 5pm (we were both starving after busy days at work!), and there were plenty of open tables. There was only one server when we came in. Once we ordered, everything came out quickly! We had the tempura coconut shrimp appetizer - it was SO GOOD. Huge shrimp fried to crunchy perfection. It didn't even need the sauce it came with, although that was yummy too! When you check in on yelp, you get a free Thai iced tea - it was light and refreshing, and had a unique (to me) flavor. For our meals, I ordered the Pad See Ew after seeing it in someone else's Yelp review - it was friggen BOMB. I loved the garlicky sauce and everything about it. It was even good leftover the next day. My husband had the crab Thai fried rice. He enjoyed it, but he liked my dish better (as did I!). He cleared his plate!The food is definitely 5/5 stars here, and I would highly recommend, but service after we ordered was not great. No one checked on us once we got our food, and we waited about 15 minutes after we finished our food before anyone returned with our check."

Flower Child

★★★★☆ 4.2 (332) • $$

"I wasn't sure what to expect when we decided to try Flower Child, but I'm so glad we did! I ordered the Mother Earth bowl with steak, and my husband had the Forbidden Rice bowl with chicken. Both dishes exceeded our expectations.When I think of healthy eating, I usually brace myself for something bland and unexciting. But Flower Child completely changed my perspective. The food was bursting with flavor, well-seasoned, and surprisingly filling. You can tell they put a lot of care into the ingredients and preparation.The casual yet inviting atmosphere made it a great spot for a relaxed meal, and the service was friendly and efficient.We're already planning our next visit to explore more of their menu. If you're skeptical about "healthy" food being satisfying, give Flower Child a try--you might just be pleasantly surprised like we were!"

Pita Heaven

"Love the Greek food at this restaurant! The gyros are cooked perfectly. Nice and thin and a little crispy on the edges. Can't wait to go back.!"

MAD Greens - Scottsdale

★★★★☆ 3.9 (271) • $$

"There are so many restaurants in the area. If looking for fast and fresh, Mad Greens has you covered. From order to checkout, the whole process was under 5 minutes. Much like Chipotle, salads, bowls and wraps are composed in front of guests. Dishes are ordered by name, but are easily customized. Mac and cheese is also available. I did not see anyone ordering them. Not sure if the Mac takes a little longer. If really in a hurry, ordering may be done ahead of time on the app. I ordered a regular sized Edgar Allen Poe. Salads may be upsized to a large for $1 more. The regular was the perfect size for me. Greens were fresh. While the scoops looked a little small, every bite had some variation of toppings. Chicken wasn't dry. Light amount of dressing still had all the greens coated. The salad was perfect for a warm day."

Atlas Bistro

★★★★☆ 4.4 (210) • $$$

"Hot damn! You can work for Yelp and still realize that you know very little about the F&B scene! For some odd reason, I THOUGHT Atlas Bistro was a relative newcomer to the scene, opening a couple of years earlier. Reality? 20 years in business! I can assume that I must have heard some buzz about Atlas a while ago and attributed it to them being new in town. The more important point is that when a place is still generating buzz (and revenue!) after two decades in the game, this is a restaurant well worth checking out. I LOVED my dinner here. Everything about it was flawless. From the service to the wines to the courses, this was such a great experience. It's been some time since I've had a meal I'm genuinely enthusiastic about. That says something when I visit so many restaurants. To be clear, I came here as part of a dinner group and I'm not sure how much our meal deviated from the norm, but I don't think by much. Everything is a prix fixe menu. I was told that Atlas Bistro is one of the few restaurants in town with a BYOB policy (corkage: $25). As a bonus? They have an incredible selection of wines available for purchase at decent prices. I enjoy wines but am by no means a connoisseur. However, one person in my group is a wine expert and was simply raving about the wine selection. The only thing that I found a little odd is that even if you buy the wine from them, the corkage fee still applies. But whatever. Since the menu rotates, I'm not going to address many of the dishes that we had other than to say they were excellent. Everything was prepared with heart, portions were good, and flavor was front-and-center. I can't imagine coming here and having a bad meal. Our dessert course was a cheese plate which I found odd but it was delicious! Due to the set menu nature of Atlas, I would recommend checking what is being served in advance if you have dietary restrictions or preferences. Someone in our group requested that the steak be swapped out for fish which they were able to accommodate, but I personally found inappropriate given the style of the operation. Another thing that I loved was the intimate environment. Reservations are key for a few reasons. One is that they're only open a few nights a week and they take off most of July and August (book those reservations now!). Additionally, there aren't a whole lot of tables which I found to be a plus. Atlas Bistro works for everything from an intimate date to an intense business discussion. It's rare to find that. As if you couldn't already tell, I am a convert to the cult of Atlas Bistro! Don't tell anyone I didn't know about this local gem before. Haven't been? Book now!"

MAD Greens - Tempe

★★★★☆ 3.8 (234) • $$

"Met up with the family at Tempe Marketplace, we were early for a birthday celebration so we all wanted to grab something to eat while waiting on time to fly, so after checking out what was all there to offer I knew I was more interested in getting a salad so off to Mad Greens I went.After checking out the menu I went with the Don Quixote Salad, it had a bed of mixed greens, southwestern chicken, mango, roasted corn, avocado, jack cheese with a creamy ginger dressing. The combinations of these favors were delish. This was a great tasting salad. I like that we are starting to have more of "fast casual" salad places to choose from because not everyone wants a hamburger or pizza. If looking for a tasty fresh salad go give them a try!"

Med Fresh Grill

★★★★☆ 3.8 (222) • $$

"In Tempe for my first time, for work. Came here for lunch. The boss found it doing recon before we came out and suggested it. I was looking for something light but filling and good and I love me some Mediterranean so this seemed like the place. I'll start but saying I was pleasantly surprised when I saw they offered a bowl for $12. In the end I did added feta for +$2 but in the end, well worth it. I got the chicken gyro with salad base and tiziki. OMG!! This bowl was bomb! It was so delicious. Every bite was packed with flavor. The chicken gyro was so tasty I would 100% get it again!Decent amount of seating inside. Street parking is what you get here so could be hit or miss."

Veggie Village

★★★★★ 4.6 (132) • $$

"Veggie Village is just a fabulous restaurant with vegan options. Located in a strip mall, with plenty of parking, it has very nice and clean exterior. Staff is friendly, and the chef will personally come and speak with customers about the food he made for them. He is truly vested into delivering tasty meals to his customers. Veggie potstickers were fantastic as appetizers. In fact I like them more than the traditional ones with pork. Miso soup is on the list of available appetizers, and it is fantastic! Garlic noodles and fried rice were equally good. Generous portions and friendly staff. Of particular note is the interior of the restaurant. Lots of custom made wooden decor as well as green color to go along with the veggie theme..."

MAD Greens - Dana Park

★★★★☆ 3.7 (188) • $$

"This location is always the best when it comes to customer service- i'm the weirdo that is seriously obsessed with their Pasta Salad & every time im in there they figure out a way to get me exactly the craving of my dreams! The energy is so great in there & you can tell everyone that works there is so kind & loving! I really appreciate good service and smiles when it comes to supporting any business which is why the dana park location is worth the extra few miles in my drive to get my lunch :) Thank you to the lovely lady and man that helped me today on 2/11 at around 4/4:30"

Hyderabad House Arizona

★★★★☆ 3.5 (210) • $$

"The food when it's good it's great but they do drop the ball sometimes.Even though I love the food personally, quality and consistency are not always up to the mark.The buffet gets very crowded it is the best way to sample different things on the menu.I have ordered my food to go most of the times and had a positive experience.Only wish they would step it up in terms of consistency and giving the same quality of food.Definitely try things from their Weekend specials menu.Cheers!"

Little India

★★★★☆ 3.5 (166) • $

"An extra star for the prices here.We love visiting here whenever we are in that area. In fast we almost go every time we visit that side of the town. The reason being they have some really good fast and is vert reasonable too, Few seating tables and even the store but we usually get the seat to sit and eat. I would highly recommend this place for the taste. Don't expect ambiance though."

Pita Jungle

★★★★☆ 3.9 (125)

"We came here for my dad's 77 bday!It was the middle of the day and we had a very large party.All of our meals were really good, the wait staff did a fantastic job, and were super friendly.The only issue we had is they had a drink menu out and no bartender!We'll be back."

Velvet Taco

★★★★☆ 4.2 (75)

"My personal experience was excellent. Customer service was great, great menu selection of unique taco choices. It's a casual vibe in the heart of downtown Scottsdale. The chicken and waffle is where it's at for me. Tacos held great in flavor, fresh veggies and toppings with house made sauces to elevate these tasty tacos. I'm definitely coming back for another visit. I need to explore more"

Honest Vegetarian

★★★★☆ 4.1 (32)

"You have to try this place if you are vegetarian or vegan! This place is on my radar since the time it opened and finally got a chance to try for a lunch. The ambiance, decor everything is 5/5, finally an Indian restaurant who has given some importance to the look and feel of the place. We were seated and the service is quick and everything is digital, the menu is available and placed order to the server. We went with couple of chaat items samosa chaat and dahi poori, both excellent, flavors were good and tasty. I would highly recommend the chilli garlic noodles, the taste is top notch. We tried the chaas, it was alright and not the best. Overall a good place for lot of options. I hope they stay consistent and quality doesn't go down. The pricing is expensive and for two it turned out to be $75, it's valid for the food but not completely justified."

SALT Sea & Land Tacos

★★★★☆ 4.4 (20)

"It was easy to walk up to the window inside and order my food. They brought it out to me where I was sitting. I had the carne asada burrito and it was wonderful. Plenty of meat, white rice, black beans and the perfect amount of onion and cilantro salsa. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying more of their menu items."
