VegeNation

"At one of the first fully vegan restaurants to hit Las Vegas, one can find portobello mushroom burgers, chicken pot pie gnocchi, buffalo cauliflower, and mac and cheese pizza. The casual restaurant near Downtown Container Park also serves fruit-infused cocktails in a breezy dining room decorated with local art and lush, trailing plants." - Janna Karel

"Created in 2014 by vegan chef Donald Lemperle, this eco-friendly restaurant with a location downtown and in Henderson serves 100 percent vegan global cuisine. Diners love the Buffalo cauliflower wings served with ranch dressing and the chicken pot pie gnocchi topped with pie crust crumbles. A weekend brunch pairs elote tamales, chicken and waffles, and stuffed french toast with mimosas and CBD-infused tea." - Katie Swalm, Janna Karel

"VegeNation, Downtown. Believe it or not, Las Vegas actually has a plethora of vegetarian offerings. So why do we need another one? VegeNation fills the gap between fine dining and the health food store food counter, and does it really well. For about $12, you can get a sandwich that tastes so good, your meat-eating companion won't flinch an eye. Save room for desert, and try the organic wine while you're feeling frisky. If the weather's nice, ask for one of the tables out back in the enclosed private patio."
