Sampling of vegan eats found at Delish Ethiopian Cuisine in Seattle, WA

In celebration of Earth Day on the horizon, we tapped into our data to find the top 100 vegan places to eat in the U.S. and Canada. From vegan Vietnamese in San Diego to an Ethiopian feast in Orlando, these 100 plant-based restaurants are not just delicious examples of vegan eats, but top restaurants, period.

Topping the list is #1-ranked vegan eatery The Mediterranean Chickpea in Tampa, Florida, where you can sample more than three different flavors of hummus. Or, if you’re vacationing in Palm Springs, California, don’t miss #2-rated Chef Tanya’s Kitchen, a popular fast-food spot for smoothies and seitan-based delicacies. Whether you live in New York, Miami, or Austin, Texas, you’ll find plenty of droolworthy jackfruit tacos, black bean burritos, gluten-free dumplings, dairy-free ice cream, and more to satisfy all your vegan comfort food cravings.

#2: Chef Tanya’s Kitchen (Palm Springs, CA)

What they’re known for: Yelpers recommend ordering the El Cubano filled with slow-roasted garlic and citrus seitan, mayo, mustard, cabbage, pickle, onion on a toasted Torpedo roll.

All vegan, all amazing.  The specials make me want to go daily and the heavy hitters like the Cubano are a reliable and consistent favorite.

#4: Thanh Tinh Chay (San Diego, CA)

What they’re known for: Yelpers love the BBQ “pork” Bahn Mi sandwich filled with vegan mayo, jalapeño, Vietnamese pickle, house sauce, fresh cucumber, and cilantro.

Best Vietnamese food I’ve ever had! Whether you’re vegan or not, it’d be hard for anyone to dislike the food. Definitely try the BBQ “pork” banh mi sandwich, crispy “chicken” with eggplant, the vegan flan & moon cake!
