We’ve verified nine vegetarian restaurants in Miami, and only one of them is fully vegan. The other eight serve meat, and four of those label their meatless dishes. We sorted the list by area and by tier, so you can pick a spot before you drive across the county.
Eight are independent. Manjay Restaurant runs a second counter, so we count it as a local chain. Our editors checked open status and menu details at each one, and every profile carries an August or September 2026 “last verified” date. Call before a long drive, because the list spans three counties, from Kendall to Boca Raton.
Vegetarian restaurants in Miami by tier
We rate every restaurant on a five-tier scale. The Miami list lands in three of the five.
- 100% vegan (1): Vegan Cuban Cuisine in Kendall uses no meat, fish, dairy, or eggs anywhere in the kitchen.
- Marks vegetarian items (4): Rishtedar, LAN Pan Asian Cafe, Indian Harvest, and Manjay Restaurant all serve meat, and each labels its vegetarian or vegan dishes on its own menu.
- Vegetarian-friendly (4): My Cousin Nick, Pamplemousse On The Bay, Ironside Cafe, and Peking Duck House serve meat and label few dishes, but each one has enough meatless dishes for a full meal.
Two tiers sit empty. We haven’t found a fully vegetarian restaurant that serves dairy and eggs, and no Miami listing lands in the lowest tier. We also count only one all-vegan kitchen so far, so most vegans here will eat at places that serve meat.

Central Miami: Wynwood and the Design District
Rishtedar sits at 232 NW 24th St in Wynwood. Rishtedar prints a full vegetarian column on its Indian menu, next to the chicken, kebab, seafood, and lamb sections, so nobody hunts for the meatless dishes. Dal Tadka costs $26, and the Kadai Paneer Tikka Masala costs $31. Naan is $7.25 a piece, and Garlic Naan is $8.50. Rishtedar opens at noon every day.
North of the Design District, Ironside Cafe is at 7580 NE 4th Ct, Suite 102. It’s a regular organic cafe, not a vegetarian one, and it serves breakfast and lunch from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily. Two of its three avocado toasts skip meat, one with burrata and tomatoes and one with mushrooms and caramelized onions. Skip the Nicoise salad, though, because the cooks top it with yellowfin tuna.
South Miami, Coral Gables, and Kendall
LAN Pan Asian Cafe is at 8332 South Dixie Highway and puts a checkmark on its vegetarian dishes, about a third of the menu. Order the Ginger Tofu for $14.95 or the Vegetable Red Curry for $16.95. The Vegetarian Roll Combination costs $14.95, and the Simple Vegetable Stir Fry lunch special costs $12.95. It’s open Monday through Saturday from 11:30 a.m. and Sunday from 1 p.m.
My Cousin Nick is a Greek counter at 2207 Ponce de Leon Blvd in Coral Gables. Nobody labels the meatless picks on the menu, so skip the gyro line and order the Yalla Falafel bowl or the Honey Halloumi bowl, both $17.95. The Falafel Pita costs $13.95. It’s open daily, with Sunday hours that end at 6 p.m.
In Kendall, Vegan Cuban Cuisine at 9640 SW 72nd St is the only fully vegan kitchen on this list. You can order croquetas, an Empanada Trio, and a Medianoche built on jackfruit and soy ham. You can also get several items gluten-free, the croquetas included. It’s open daily from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
Doral and Miami Beach
Manjay Restaurant is a Haitian, Cuban, and Jamaican counter at 2000 NW 87th Ave, Suite 3, in Doral. Manjay puts a Vegan Bowl and a Vegan Roti on its regular menu, and the akra, tostones, maduros, and curried vegetable side are vegan too. Skip Griyo, Vaca Frita, and the Honey Jerk dishes, because all three carry meat. The Doral counter is open daily from 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Manjay’s second counter, in The Citadel food hall, keeps different hours.
Pamplemousse On The Bay is the splurge. It’s a waterfront French restaurant at 910 West Ave on Miami Beach, with entrees from $28 to $59. The restaurant tags only the sorbet as vegan. Still, the Cauliflower Steak, Heirloom Tomato Carpaccio, and Roasted Beet Salad add up to a meal. It’s open Wednesday through Sunday evenings, with Sunday brunch from noon to 4 p.m.
Broward and Palm Beach: Pompano Beach and Boca Raton
Peking Duck House at 1200 E Atlantic Blvd in Pompano Beach centers on roast duck. A vegetarian can still eat well from the Tofu and Vegetable section, where dishes run $15 to $16, or the build-your-own Authentic dishes at $17 with fried tofu or vegetables. Skip the Mopo Tofu, which uses ground pork. It’s open daily from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Indian Harvest is at 500 Via De Palmas, Suite 79, in Boca Raton. HappyCow lists a dedicated vegan menu here, with the vegan items marked. Gobi Shahjahani costs $27, and Vegetable Malabar costs $29. Indian Harvest closes Tuesday and takes a break between lunch and dinner, so plan for noon to 3 p.m. or dinner after 5 p.m.
What a visitor should know
- You need a car. The list spans Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Group your stops by area, the way we did above, instead of crossing all three counties in one day.
- Tuesday is the thin day. Pamplemousse closes Monday and Tuesday, and Indian Harvest closes Tuesday. The other seven stay open all week.
- Most kitchens serve meat. Only Vegan Cuban Cuisine runs a fully meatless kitchen. We could not confirm a separate fryer or prep line at the others, so ask if cross-contact matters to you. You can check current hours on Vegan Cuban Cuisine’s website and Pamplemousse’s website.
- Coverage is uneven. For example, we have no listings yet in Little Havana, Coconut Grove, or Fort Lauderdale, and we keep adding restaurants. The full Florida listing shows everything we’ve verified so far.
