The city has it all, from mouth-watering burgers and nostalgic soul food to yummy gyozas and healthier food options, and we’re going to break down some of our favorite vegan restaurants in the city.
1. Slutty Vegan
From a food truck to a burger bar to now, a national restaurant chain, there’s no doubt we had to kick off our list with Slutty Vegan. The plant based burger joint has become a beloved part of Atlanta’s cuisine scene. They’ve got a totally vegan menu that will have you feeling like you’re at your favorite burger joint!
We recommend the SloppyToppy, loaded with jalapeños, vegan cheese, caramelized onions, and their special Slut sauce.

2. Bar Vegan
And there’s more from the brilliant mind behind Slutty Vegan! Pinky Cole has expanded her empire to Ponce City Market… with a partnership you won’t believe! Big Dave’s Cheesesteaks and Slutty Vegan have teamed up for Pinky’s new venture. It not only serves up vegan cheesesteaks, but it features immersive ‘bar theatre’.

3. Cafe Sunflower
Cafe Sunflower is an incredible option for plant-based brunch lovers. For over 25 years, they have vowed to provide vegans a lot more options than the usual few salads you find on most restaurants’ menus. With a 100% vegan menu, they serve a varied range of cuisines, including vegan takes on Southwestern American staples.
We can never decide between the Vegan Chicken & Waffles, or the Loaded Breakfast Burrito!

With two locations across Atlanta, this popular vegetarian paradise is one of the OG veggie spots in the city. Since 1979, they have only used fresh ingredients for their delicious dishes, which are 100% vegan. Their Divine Vegan Feasts will give you a taste of the entire menu in one sitting!

5. Herban Fix
For more pan-Asian fusion deliciousness, head to Herban Fix. The restaurant’s mission is to create a healthy-eating movement, without skipping out on flavor. With primarily Southeast Asian flavors, the restaurant has captured its customers’ hearts with well-plated dishes and updated traditional flavors into delectable vegan food.
If you’re looking for a hearty meal, try the seared pom pom mushroom steak with pan-seared mushroom and drizzled with a savory sauce atop a bed of sauteed bak choi and red peppers for extra crunch. For those colder days, we recommend the spicy tofu soup! This steaming bowl is fragrant with mushrooms and spices, using only the freshest ingredients.

6. PLANTA Queen
PLANTA Queen’s incredible menu features a scrumptious journey through Asian cuisine, and it’s all, of course, 100% plant-based! Their elevated dishes will have your mouth watering.
You’ve gotta try everything on their menu, but we specifically recommend the brand new Sushi Burrito, which is chick’n fried mushrooms, ahi waterlemon, avocado, baby gem, cucumber, ginger. It’s a truly delicious treat that’s 100% guilt-free!

8. Plant Based Pizzeria
Some days, all you want is a nice slice of pizza! And you might be thinking–sure pizzerias usually have one vegan option, but it doesn’t hit the spot. That’s where Plant Based Pizzeria comes in!
Plant Based Pizzeria has a 100% vegan menu with pizza that’s simply mouth watering! You’ve got to try the Spinach and Artichoke, with roasted basil pizza sauce or the sweet and savory Georgia Peach Pizza.

9. Lov’n It Live
Located in the heart of the downtown business district of East Point, Lov’n It Live follows the motto that food is medicine, and rightly so. This laid-back East Point gem has a charming and tranquil environment, with equal parts tasty and comforting raw/vegan dishes! The jazzy soundtrack compliments the welcoming service.
We suggest trying out their Zucchini Lasagna for a real plant based treat and the Raw Strawberry Cheesecake for a fresh and sweet end to your meal.

10. Planted Soul
To the naked eye, burgers from Planted Soul don’t look vegan, but they 100% are. Known by their fans for their plant-based shrimp, we recommend “surfing and turfing” it, with their Beyond Soul Burger and Fries. Add a vegan shrimp for 3$ more. Or, try the Good 4 the Soul bowl, a flavor bomb prepared with Southern fried vegan chicken wings, vegan baked mac ‘n’ cheese, collard greens and candied yams. This is true vegan comfort food, and we love it!

Whether you’re looking to make a meal or two of yours vegan, you want to try something new, or you’re 100% vegan yourself, eating less meat is always a good idea! And thankfully, Atlanta is full of delicious options for the vegan lifestyle!
