Best Vegan Restaurants in U Street Corridor

The vegan brunch here is awesome!! I've been before but this time had a chance to try their new menu. 10 out of 10 would certainly recommend! The staff was great, very attentive and provided a detailed description of the food when it came to the table.

We’ve been coming to Elizabeth’s for Valentine’s Day for more than ten years in a row, for good reason. First, it’s romantic, with wonderful ambiance, thoughtful preset menu options, and lovely service. Second, of course it’s delicious, but in a ways that’s at once a surprising culinary treat while also leaving you full but somehow healthier than when you arrived. If you don’t question, “how did they do that” about their vegan dishes at least a couple times throughout the meal, you just weren’t eating mindfully. And lastly, it’s a consistent, local staple that we can count on, down to Elizabeth herself facilitating things and stopping by the table in the most humble and thoughtful of ways. This place should have a Michelin Star.

I can’t get over how incredible our server was. Elvis immediately acknowledged that we were vegetarians and had accommodations made for even the fixed Valentine’s Day menu. We truly appreciate it. And not to forget, but the food was incredible. I would go back and eat an entire bowl of the beet salata

My wife and I came into town for Valentines Day. We booked our reservation a few days in advance and we were not disappointed. The first thing we noticed was the unique decor and louder music. It made for a great ambiance and the designs of the restaurant gave it an upbeat yet stylish feel. Our server was Kaitlin and she was very kind. She attended well to us and took care of making us feel welcome. My wife had the half chicken and I had the chicken tacos. Our food was absolutely sensational , the chicken fell off the bone and was just so perfectly cooked. The desserts were great too. We enjoyed the Tres Leche the most. We highly recommend Mi Vida and Kaitlin is an excellent server and will take care of all needs.

First time at Oyamel. The food was excellent as was the service by Melvin. He carefully explained the menu and our many serving options. The Oyamel margarita was delicious as were the tocos and rice w mushrooms and Brussel sprout sides. The tres leches dessert was incredible! Overall, and excellent dining experience enhanced by the care of Melvin. We will return soon!
