Known for its comfort bar food, this South Philly staple has vegan versions of everything from buffalo wings to mozzarella sticks to cheesesteaks and meatball subs. The red and white pizzas are topped with your choice of real or dairy-free cheese, and sides, like spicy broccoli and sweet potato fries, that regulars love.

(Review from Phila. Inquirer): A 2020 James Beard award nominee for Best New Restaurant, this Thai spot from chef Chutatip “Nok” Suntaranon draws a large following with its pungent, and often spicy, flavors. Several dishes on the menu are naturally plant-based, including the Kang Pajari, a curry made with banana peppers, pineapple, and tofu; the Laab HED Yang Jae, a popular salad filled with sautéed mushrooms; and the Sakoo HED, tapioca dumplings stuffed with shiitake mushrooms and a peanut, red chili, and cilantro filling. But many additional sides can be made vegan.

(Review from Phila. Inquirer): Early pioneers of vegan cuisine in Philly’s restaurant scene, James Beard-nominated chefs Rich Landau and Kate Jacoby place vegetables at the center of every dish at Vedge. You’ll often find tofu-based entrees, and the rare seitan-based dish, but veggies like cauliflower and eggplant triumph over faux meat in dishes ranging from tacos to dan dan noodles to rutabaga fondue. It’s an upscale experience that, even if to be had by takeout, deserves a dessert course. Almost always on the menu: cheesecake equally as rich and creamy as the real deal.

(Review from Phila Inquirer): 1401 S. 12th St. This vegan diner’s cake doughnuts strike that balance of crispy-on-the-outside and fluffy on-the-inside. The secret is Earth Balance, a plant-based butter that’s melted and mixed into the dough plus a splash of almond milk. You’ll find cinnamon sugar, plain glazed, and sprinkle-topped, chocolate-glazed doughnuts, alongside a rotating mix of doughnut holes always on the menu. Weekends bring specials like Lavender, Maple Walnut, and the Philly Creme, a chocolate-glazed doughnut filled with vegan cream cheese. If you’re looking to secure more than one, call ahead.

Take out. The "Big Catch" is delicious. For those who don't like spicy sauce, ask for "Secret Sauce" instead. Super cool staff, too!
