SPIRAL DINER

SPIRAL DINER & BAKERY

When people think of Dallas vegan food, Spiral Diner is likely the first restaurant people think of! With locations in Fort Worth, Dallas, and now Denton, Spiral Diner has been serving up vegan comfort food since 2002. They serve breakfast all day, and of course, have brunch on the weekends; get there early though, because it’s always slammed! They have gluten-free options, too. Need to stop in for something quick or have a birthday to celebrate? Spiral Diner has baked goods in-house, makes custom cakes, and now does to-go orders, too!

VEGAN VIBRATIONZ

VEGAN VIBRATIONZ

Another popular spot at the Farmers Market, Vegan Vibrationz takes a fun approach to Vegan! Since Texas is definitely known for being a meat state, they like to show their customers that vegan can taste just as good as meat! For example, chicken and waffles, instead of chicken they use fried oyster mushrooms!

NUNO’S TACO & VEGMEX GRILL

NUNO’S TACO & VEGMEX GRILL

What started out as a stand at The Dallas Farmers Market, has grown so popular that they were able to open their own location! Nuno’s is a Mexican restaurant that takes a “healthier” spin on your traditional Mexican dishes. Everything on their menu is vegan and we’ve heard their nachos are to die for! If you are vegan but not ready to give up Tex Mex (that is usually meat heavy), here is your solution!!

CINNAHOLIC

Looking for something to satisfy your sweet tooth? Cinnaholic is a sweets shop of cinnamon rolls, cookies, brownies and even edible cookie dough that are all fully vegan! Customize your treat like adding marshmallow, graham crackers and chocolate sauce to make your cinnamon roll s’mores worthy or add fruit and chocolate for a chocolate covered strawberry roll! If you’re hosting an event check out their cinnacake that is just as delicious as it sounds with frosting and up to 5 toppings!

Jeff's Vegan

JEFF’S VEGAN

If you are in the Frisco area, Jeff’s Vegan is a must! It’s a vegan-based Asian restaurant with offerings that include Sweet and Sour soup, potstickers, Buffalo Cauliflower, Crispy Spicy Chacha and more. And while it’s actually quite easy to eat vegan at many Asian restaurants with eggless noodles and lots of tofu and veggies, Jeff specializes in ONLY vegan Asian, but also cooks up vegan burgers and burritos too!

VEGAN FOOD HOUSE

VEGAN FOOD HOUSE

This new spot near Bishop Arts has one of the most interesting menus we’ve seen! The entire restaurant is vegan; “meats” are seitan-, soy-, jackfruit-, or mushroom-based. The menu includes shrimp creole nachos, portobello mushroom steak, Daddy’s fried ginger “beef” sandwich, and many more creative options! Their hours are a bit atypical, so make sure you check their website before you plan your visit!
