Five Fave Restaurants In Vegan Las Vegas You Need to Know About

Welcome to Vegan Las Vegas

Here at Vkind, we do our best to give our users and guests the best experience possible. We make it easy to locate vegan businesses wherever you are with a few taps on our app. Today, we’re locating Las Vegas since it is one of the United States’ most popular cities to travel to, attracting well over 30 million people a year. 

With the bright lights, the shows, the rollercoasters and daring rides that you only find in Vegas, the food, the casinos, the history, and the celebrities, there’s just too much to love about Sin City that you’ll have to experience at least once in your lifetime.

Did I mention the food? Vegas might be famous for gambling, hotels, and The Hangover, but where there’s good booze, there’s even better food, and with the vegan movement marking its territory, may as well start calling it Las Vegan. We put together a list of four must-taste plant-based restaurants we know you’ll love.

Smash Me Baby

What’s the best hangover cure? A greasy, juicy, deluxe burger in one hand and crispy, fried potato skins in the other, right? Maybe it’s a preference over fact, but Smash Me Baby definitely picked the right place to set up shop. A vegan fast food restaurant in the heart of Vegas right next to the strip and the Stratosphere?! We think yes! But a word of advice: don’t grub before you jump. The bottom line is you’ve never had a plant-based burger like their Truffle Burger, and they have the reviews and return customers to back them. 

VegeNation

Have you ever been hanging out with a large group of friends who were all hungry but also wanted completely different foods, ultimately making it impossible to decide where to go? Yea, that’s not gonna happen when traveling to Vegas with VegeNation, an eatery owned by Chef Donald Lemperle, who was a contestant on Peeled, that is located conveniently downtown. What’s so great about VegeNation is anyone can get whatever they’re craving – meatball sub, pizza, nachos, chicken and waffles, burgers, chicken parm, gnocchi, french toast, salad, smoothies – this place has something for everyone, so the whole crew can enjoy together and leave satisfied. 

Saffron, The Vegetarian Eatery

Saffron opened its doors in May of 2021 and might just be one of the best Southeast Asian-inspired vegan restaurants in the whole city. Saffron highlights Vegas’ artisanal craftsmanship in the most beautiful and delicious aspects of the word. From interior design to produce and drinks, Saffron is a billboard for sustainable businesses in Vegas. They recently turned the entire menu vegan with their vibrant dishes focused on the pure flavor of vegetables that are almost too beautiful to eat.  

Vegas Vegan Culinary School & Eatery

Vegas Vegan Culinary School and Eatery is a whole new experience for Vegas residents and visitors alike. It is the first woman-owned vegan cooking school and deli in the USA, so that alone is a reason to check it out. They also host several cooking classes every month, which you can attend solo, for a date night, a small party, or even bring in the kids for their own class to inspire creativity in the kitchen at home. Vegas Vegan Culinary School and Eatery is the first not accredited cooking school in the US.  Whether a local looking for something new to do on Friday nights, or a traveler wanting something unique during your Vegas vacation, this place is the answer. 

These are just four of our favorite vegan businesses listed on the Vkind app. Vegas is a melting-pot hot spot, with over 30 million people flying in from all over the world, so rest assured, they have something for everyone, and their vegan scene is quite recognizable.
