    Best vegan fine dinning experience I have ever had! Presentation and flavors were on point! Decent portions as well. I really enjoyed the braised eggplant and the rutabaga fondue! Highly recommend! The mock tails were great as well. Did not disappoint!

    We finally made it to Vedge! First off, I want to clarify that this is not fine dining. I went here assuming it would be a thoroughly considered establishment in both space and concept, delivering food and service that stick in the mind. It’s not that - but it could be. I would still recommend dining here but don’t expect anything more than a great Philly restaurant. There are a lot of issues in comparison to any one star Michelin, which I believe would be within reach for Vedge should the restaurant make some tough decisions and the committee ever decide Philly is worthy (hint - it already is.). I’ll outline them below. Unfortunately, the vibe of the restaurant does not feel ambitious or intentional. This could have changed over the years… I have heard stories of the tasting menu from when they first opened. Vegetarian fine dining is no longer a novelty and it’s time for Vedge to be more precise in their aim. To start, the music didn’t feel right - and if the soft rock pub music suits the vibe of what *vedge* is then it should have been a tad louder and more intentional with selection. Heck, if they want to be a pub they should lean into it more and I’d appreciate it. What’s blasting through those speakers matters as much as what’s on the plate. The space has much wear & tear, and the seating is the least comfortable I’ve been at in a restaurant for some time. The only area that felt special and distinct was the bar area with its marble top. There’s too little conviction. I kept staring at a gap just to the left in the pews my partner sat on wondering why it hadn’t been fixed. The bathroom has no style at all and offers the dreaded pink soap, which to me displays little attention paid to the full sensory experience. It’s a small detail, but soap lingers on the hands and can even bring people back to a restaurant if distinct enough (of course with everything else also meeting standards). When we were done with dishes, there was a lot of hesitation from waitstaff in picking them up. This could be due to bad experiences in the past with guests that weren’t vocal, but the process moving to the next courses were quite awkward for us diners. I don’t need to be asked every time - particularly when the plate had just a few stray leaves or some leftover sauce that neither of us picked at for 20 minutes. There was only one waiter that properly introduced the dishes, and he came with the entrées. We ordered a lot of dishes - I wanted us to taste essentially the whole menu lol. Special occasion, after all. The waitstaff may have been tripped up by that. We were recommended to choose between 2-3 per person, and I would instead recommend 3-4. The small plates aren’t that small at all - but the quality of the first two categories of dishes are such that you won’t want to miss out. I’d say skip the entrée dishes entirely. They just aren’t up to snuff in preparation, and each small dish was more complicated in flavor and texture than what we received in the entrees. Despite these issues, we really enjoyed the food and will be back when the menu changes. I’m hopeful post pandemic they reconsider the vibe to be more specific and take heed of these comments. The restaurant should remain in it’s lane, but I don’t think accolades will truly come without making tough decisions about the experience they want to leave clientele with.

    Flavors are straightforward and punchy without nuance, just a single overbearing note. I adore vegetable-forward cooking but this was not it. Since wine preference is so personal, guests should be offered a tiny sip before committing to a full glass. I was given a glass without the opportunity to try it first. I would’ve gone with something else. I did not enjoy this wine. I looked forward to trying the “florentino” on the menu, a vegetable I never had before. What arrived was a plate of cauliflower. They are not the same thing. It felt deceptive and disingenuous. Overall, not an experience I’d recommend. If you do go here, I recommend the caramel apple cheesecake, which does have layers of flavor, unlike the savory dishes.

    The menu was not as extensive as in years past. Per usual, the rutabaga fondue did not disappoint. The cucumber tofu was kind of salty. The pineapple cheesecake tasted like a tropical vacation compared to the fennel upsidedown cake which had the likings of being on a packed British bus. Don't get me wrong, this place is still a solid choice, and would happily return.

    I have no words to describe how delicious this meal was. I came in with a friend to enjoy some vegan gluten free eats and my desires were met. The food was spectacular. We had the smoked portobello mushroom as well as the heirloom tomato. As someone who doesn’t normally enjoy portobello mushroom or tomatoes I was pleasantly surprised. The flavor packed into the mushroom was delicious. Had a very nice smoky flavor the perfect texture. Elegant and scrumptious. The black garlic paired with the heirloom tomatoes was just divine. In addition to tomatoes, there were some other chopped vegetables like cucumber and onion. I would compare it to a cucumber, tomato salad, but with elevated flavors through special herbs and rubs. We wrapped up the meal with a blueberry cheesecake. This cheesecake had me questioning if I should buy 5 more slices. Without a doubt some of the best cheesecake I’ve had in my life. The lavender ice cream just paired so well with it. I look forward to coming back and visiting again. Not to mention my server, Alex , who was also fantastic!!

    The Dan Dan Noodles were phenomenal. Really just ruined all other noodles for me. Some of the desserts were good, and made me a believer that milk and butter aren't necessary for creamy, caramel-y, excellent dessert. Cheesecake was solid. But was very underwhelmed by some of the other dishes. Just fine, nothing really inspired besides the noodles. As expected, I felt great after the meal.

    It’s been almost a week since we ate here- and I still am thinking about the food- specifically the grilled avocado and the Dan Dan noodles. This is a 5 star restaurant- and the fact that the food is fully vegan is even more mind blowing. Come and try a little bit of everything, you will not be disappointed. Both drinks we tried were fantastic.

    Very nice experience trying a vegan restaurant in Philly. The setting is old style. The service is great. We have 4 people and ordered everything on their menu. I should say except the Dardanelle noodle, everything else tasted great. It's so flavorful.

    We enjoyed a great dinner here after seeing a show at the Kimmel Center. They recommend 2 to 3 plates per person. I was probably least excited about the carrots when we ordered them but they were insanely good. Definitely a can’t miss dish if you go. The celery root rillettes, fingerling potatoes and broccoli were also really good. Ironically the one dish that I thought was going to be a can’t miss was the dan dan noodles. They were fine but least favorite of the 5 dishes we ordered. Will definitely be going back.

    I loved Vedge; it was phenomenal! They do not use any fake meat which is very impressive, yet it tasted incredible. I loved the pretzel fondue. The mushroom steak had similar texture and flavor to real steak. Dessert was great too! Highly recommend!

    Had a chance to visit one of the best vegan spots in Philadelphia, Vedge. If you’re a vegan or vegetarian this has some of the best food around. They offer a very unique and diverse menu. Every dish is well thought out and they have a little bit of something for everyone. Our favorite dishes were the Rutabega Fondue and the spicy Dan Dan Noodles. Both were fantastic with outstanding flavor combinations. Make a reservation. This books up fast, and for good reason.

    Vedge is HANDS DOWN the best vegan restaurant there is. Coming from someone who has been to hundreds of plant-based restaurants. This takes top one by a landslide. from the outstanding service, to the presentation, to the taste and quality of their food, everything here is top notch. I can’t say enough great things!!! I will forever be a customer!!

    I can’t stop thinking about the meal we had at Vedge! I can’t wait to come back to the city and eat here again. The entire menu sounded amazing and the dishes we had were so good. The ingredients blend together perfectly and the flavours were delicious. The waitress was funny and sweet, with great attention to detail.

  • 5/5 Quasim K. 3 years ago on Google
    I'm not a vegan, but The food and drinks are delectable, Whether you are vegan or not. It is not a vegan restaurant that tries to replicate meat dishes it does its own thing. Bravo is brilliant 👏!

    I came here for the first time last night and it was hands down my favorite vegan restaurant. The drinks are really good and service is great. The food is amazing for vegetarians and for people who like meat. I would love to come back. This place is not disabled friendly.

    One of my all time favorite places to eat. I’ve been a vegetarian for 18 years and have tried places all over the world and it’s rare to find such an awesome dining experience. It’s kinda like a game. They bring out these little plates and you try to figure out how they come up with these amazing dishes with the selected ingredients. The pretzel and “cheese” is really a mind game. I suggest ordering 5-10 plates and sharing them.

    One of the best meals I’ve ever had in Philly. Left full, but not overly stuffed or feeling gross like most steakhouses or general dinner fare. Cocktails were incredible and every dish was balanced but rich

    Amazing Vegan Dining Experience. Great service and food. Small plates concept and I do recommend 2-3 plates per person. Plenty of options for drinks. They do require proof of vaccination for dining so make sure you have a screenshot or photo of your vaccination card along with your id. 4 of us ordered 11 items which ended up being more than sufficient. Our recommendations: Dan Dan Noodles Eggplant Braciole Fried Tofu Wood Roasted Carrot Rutuba Fondue Stuffed Avocado Fingerling potatoes Dessert recommendation: Sticky Toffee Pudding Caramel Apple Cheesecake IG: journey_man16

    Never thought I’ll enjoy this type of food as much as I did. If I could become a vegan, I just need the chef from this place to make all my meals. Spicy Dan Dan noodle is a must try

    Upon walking into Vedge, I was kindly greeted by the front desk and promptly seated at a cozy table for one. It’s a warm and dimly lit restaurant, which creates the perfect atmosphere for a date or friend reunion. The food menu was simple yet elegant, so you won’t be overwhelmed with indecisiveness. There is an extensive wine selection if you would like a glass to unwind. My waiter was extremely attentive and bubbly, and we chatted extensively about the unique ingredients. His passion really shine through, and his energy was infectious! Here is what I ordered, and my thoughts on each! Your Name in Lights Drink (pineapple, lime, cinnamon): it was pleasant but not too impressive as it tasted a bit like sour sprite. I couldn’t pick out any notes of cinnamon, but it was still a good refresher nonetheless Stuffed avocado: absolutely beautiful presentation!! The pickled cauliflower was a bit overpowering, but the tangy almond romesco and creamy avocado really shine through. Great portion - I was pretty *stuffed* after this ;) Charred delicata squash: my favorite by far. Wonderfully grilled, perfectly tender, luscious sauce, and incredible harmony. The char seriously adds a nice tang that fits perfectly with the overall dish! Sticky toffee cake: 10000/10 the warm, gooey toffee cake and the cold toffee ice cream were just out of this world - the sweetness level was impressively balanced, given that there was even syrup on the bottom of the plate. I still drool just thinking about this dessert. Hands down one of the best I’ve ever had! Highly recommend Vedge for a high-end experience - the food and the vibes were immaculate :)

    Amazing food! It's definitely on the expensive side since you'll need 2 (or maybe 3) plates per person but the food is really unique. Even my friends who weren't vegan absolutely loved the food. Highly recommend to everyone!

    Visiting from Chicago- and all I can say is wow! Super delicious, decadent and complex vegan food. I was so impressed with every plate we ordered! Harry was our waiter and they were an absolute treat. Even helped take this picture of my gorgeous friends & I after dinner. Thanks Vedge!

    Delicious inventive small plates. My husband and I did the Vedge Experience, so we each picked 3 dishes and shared them, which let us taste 6 different dishes. Dessert was included. Service was spot on, friendly, and we weren't rushed.

  • 5/5 Nickolas T. 7 months ago on Google • 16 reviews
    For Vegan and Vegetarian options this is one of the hottest locations in Philadelphia well worth worth wait and any journey necessary. Creative chefs are clearly being given free reign to experiment to the limits of what this rising culinary and dietary movement have to offer. Staff are well versed in the menu options and are warm in their demeanor but can be apprehensive. This may be due to the high demand for seats at the restaurant. Nonetheless a wonderful dining experience if analyzing nothing but the morsels delivered to your table.

  • 5/5 G.Pratap K. 6 months ago on Google • 14 reviews
    Great places with very creative and incredibly tasteful vegetarian and vegan dishes! Lively atmosphere and great ambiance. This innovative restaurant by Chefs Rich Landau and Kate Jacoby provides irresistible seasonal vegetarian and vegan dishes in western format! Prior reservations are needed and finding a public parking spots on weekends and busy time is little difficult. Make sure to reach early as the reservations are mostly 90 mins slots.

  • 5/5 Courtney S. 4 years ago on Google
    Best meal I've had in a while. Every bite was delicious, but you MUST try the fancy radishes and the fondue (yes, that is vegan as well). Perfect for sharing plates. Staff was friendly and attentive.

  • 4/5 Brad P. 4 years ago on Google
    Best Vegan Food in Philadelphia for sure. The menu is split in three sections of appetizers, small dishes, and then larger dishes; my wife and I had a few of each. The highlight is the pretzel and the cauliflower soup but all dishes were unique and amazing. The only disappointment is the drink (beer) sizes and prices. The food isn’t cheap, but given the quality and the special nature of it, well worth it. We ordered 2 beers for $8 each and they came at only half a pint, so $16 for a full pint is the highest I have seen. I wish they also had a better selection. Having said that we will be back.

  • 5/5 Stevie N. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing!! Amazing!! Amazing!! I've only been one time so far and can't wait to go back again! Food was phenomenal, service was super friendly, the portions were ideal and very nicely displayed for this type of restaurant. My significant other is not vegan and he loved all of what we shared.

  • 5/5 Ilana B. 4 years ago on Google

  • 3/5 Fatmata K. 4 years ago on Google
    Yup! I recommend you to come here for all my vegan friends. As a food tester and meat eater this food was delicious to me and I think that it could just be a little bit cheaper but other than that. Just come down here and buy a plate!

  • 5/5 Axel S. 4 years ago on Google
    Superb flavors at every turn, the food is creative yet rooted in classic cuisine. Fantastic place, great setting and great experience. Only recommendation: wait for guests to finish their course before Bussing the table.

  • 5/5 Ben F. 4 years ago on Google
    The food and service are always outstanding. I've been here twice and it's excellent. Their menu changes seasonally and last time I was in they were in their winter menu. We had about 70% of the menu and everything was fantastic. During colder winter evenings they get a fire going in the fire place, which is very nice. It's tapas style and they typically recommend 3 dishes per person in your party, that's about right for average people, so calculate 3x per one, per person, dish if you're looking at cost. You will not go away hungry though and all the dishes are exciting with great taste balance.

  • 5/5 Ian M. 4 years ago on Google
    Hands down the absolute best food I've had in my life. My wife took me here for my birthday, and the experience was nothing but excellent. Prompt and friendly service, amazing menu, food came out quickly, and lovely atmosphere. Everything I ate was a plant, and it was delectable. Coming back again for my wife's birthday. 10/10.

  • 5/5 Nikhil I. 4 years ago on Google
    Service, drinks and food (but for desserts) is fantastic. Food is very flavourful. Desserts can be better(some are good) and given a choice I would give it 4.5!

  • 5/5 Jim C. 4 years ago on Google
    Best Vegan meal ever! My wife is a vegan but I'm an omnivore. While visiting Philly we made an early dinner reservation for a long-awaited visit to this fabulous restaurant. Neither of us were disappointed. The atmosphere was great... a converted old brownstone with small rooms. The service was impeccable with a knowledgeable wait staff and beautiful presentation of each dish by ingredient as shown in the pictures below. I can't even remember what we ordered but everything was amazing. best of all, each dish was unique... no faux "burgers" or "mac and cheese", just super fresh, flavorful vegetables each prepared with a distinctive sauce. As a non-Vegan I left full and very happy. I can highly recommend Vedge to anyone!

  • 5/5 Magdaliz R. 3 years ago on Google
    Awesome food and service.

  • 5/5 Blanca P. 3 years ago on Google
    The Vedge serves absolutely outstanding food. They specialize in smaller dishes, so expect to eat at least 2 dishes per person. You'll try to justify ordering more, though, because they are that tasty. Make sure you save room for dessert, too, because those are just as good as the savory items. It's easy to quickly spend a lot, but it is also worth it. Many places serve tasty vegan food, but you'll be hard pressed to get this dining experience elsewhere that is also vegan. The staff is professional, and were incredibly prompt while we were there, on what was probably a very busy night (New Year's Eve). I ate there with my omnivore partner, and both of us left completely satisfied. I especially recommend the Rutabaga Fondue. It tastes perfect on the warm pretzel and tangy pickles it comes with.

  • 5/5 Kelli W. 3 years ago on Google
    AMAZING FOOD!! Loved everything about the interior of the restaurant, presentation, food and service. When you walk in there's a little bar and when you go further in there are two dinning rooms with plenty of tables. Highly recommend the stuffed avocado and the tofu dishes.

  • 5/5 Mark S S. 3 years ago on Google
    So I am not a vegan. But the food here was outstanding. Honestly, I don’t know how you could tell it was all vegan to begin with. The last time we were here as a family we ordered literally everything on their menu (what a fun experience) and we loved it all. More recently, we participated in a special Chase dining experience and the food was served family style as a kind of buffet. I really thought that experience was mediocre but I am keeping my 5 star review for the normal a la carte menu!

  • 5/5 Kelly G. 4 years ago on Google
    Absolute favourite vegetarian restaurant on the east coast! Excellent service! Order every.single.thing.

  • 4/5 Ritesh S. 4 years ago on Google
    A solid Friday night date night! Came here for a late reservation at 9PM and was glad the table was ready for our arrival. Vedge resides near a lot of the other well positioned and well known restaurants in town and I'm surprised it took me this long to get here! Parking is tough but spots are more available as the night wears on. Inside it's dim but enough light peers through to allow for solid conversation. Our server came over as we sat down and filled our water glasses and didn't skip a beat to introduce himself and give us some tips on the menu. The whole jawn is vegan and right up my alley. The dishes on the menu are inventive and familiar all in one - makes it a safe space to explore the menu! We went with the stuffed avocado, grilled broccolini, and the gold beets for our entrees. The portions are on the smaller side and built to share. We also got a palate cleanser in the beginning of the meal with a shot glass of the bisque of the day - savory and wetted our appetite! The food was solid and so flavorful! We both agreed the avocado was a stand out. Stuffed with romesco and cauliflower fried "rice" and seasoned just so -thoroughly enjoyed each bite! The beets and broccolini were also enjoyable but could've been a bit heartier on the portions given the lightness of the vegetables. We ended up ordering dessert as well - their toffee pudding is phenomenal and the mud pie was very creatively made with sweet potato! Overall the service was awesome! We were checked in on plenty, and our food came out at a regular pace. We had glasses of drinks and water always full, and the waiter was very knowledgeable about the items to order! I would consider returning to treat ourselves since it's on the pricier side of things, but definitely worth the extra pennies!

  • 5/5 Katie M. 4 years ago on Google
    This is one of the best meals I've ever had. Each bite was not only mouthwateringly delicious, but also surprising and new. The menu is full options that are unbelievabley savory and often smoky. I could talk about how good this was for ages but all you really need to know is that if you have to opportunity, go.

  • 5/5 Jake P. 4 years ago on Google
    One of my favorite places to eat in the city. Period. The fondue they serve is my favorite (I think?) it's so hard to choose a favorite when everything they serve is deliciously amazing. I love the space and the atmosphere, it's very cozy and homey and energy can flow through the area beautifully. Even if you are not vegan, I would tell you to check this place out. Pure love!

    This all plant-based restaurant is wonderful. Every dish was deliciously balanced and fun to share. My favorites were the Brussel Sprouts, and the caramel apple cheesecake. Also, the service here is amazing. This is the way food should make you feel!

  • 5/5 Kim S. 4 years ago on Google
    This place is unbelievable! The food is heavenly. Every dish we ordered was delicious, unique and truly Zagat worthy. Maybe a little on the pricey side, but I would definitely make Vedge my to-go on special occasions. Great ambience and service.

    This was an exceptional dinner. We entered and were greeted by a friendly team who offered to take our coats. We were seated in the corner near a window, where it felt cozy and secluded, even if we were within earshot of other diners. Our waitress was thorough, but we had saved up our appetites and were ready to dive in straight to ordering.

  • 5/5 Rishi P. 4 years ago on Google
    Outstanding place - the best I have visited in Philly in my 6 months here. A bit steep on the wallet but the food, service and ambience are all top notch. Went as a couple and tried the stuffed avocado, fondue and eggplant braciole followed by the sticky toffee pudding. Everything was outstanding!

  • 5/5 Claire G. 3 years ago on Google
    The food is phenomenal. I'm not a foodie, and I don't think my palette is sophisticated enough to really appreciate the creativity of the dishes, or the freshness of the ingredients. So I'll just leave it as - my family (who I usually have to drag to vegan restaurants) ordered almost everything on the menu, and thought everything was delicious. We ate outdoors in 30 degree weather and it was warm in the cabanas (I even took off my jacket). The service was just as incredible as the food. They modified all our dishes to accommodate a nut allergy. Our waiter was attentive, gave great recommendations, and brought out a candle with dessert for a birthday. It's easy to see why it's consistently ranked one of the best restaurants in Philly. Vegan or not, you will not be disappointed.

  • 5/5 Anthony M. 3 years ago on Google
    I've been dying to dine here since I saw the owner's thrilling win on Chopped. The food and service was just as I imagined. Flavors were vast and extraordinary while the service was so prompt. Our waiter did not come too frequently and neither did he fail to come often enough. It was like clockwork. I absolutely loved the grilled avocado dish as the textures were so beloved. If you're looking to have an ultimately fancy and healthy dinner with a mate this is without a doubt one of the most luxurious restaurants you can dine in. Would easily visit Philly again just to eat here once more.

    It is my favorite Philadelphia Restaurant so we went there for my Birthday. The service was excellent, food and beverages fantastic and we had a lovely evening! I highly recommend it for a special occasion..The bar is also a fun place to visit! Everything was great. I highly recommended this place.

    Vedge takes vegan cuisine, and tips it out of the usual salad bowl. Combinations that somehow make a carrot taste like a Rueben sandwich, or root vegetables that taste like the creamiest cheese fondue you’ve ever had. My spouse was a skeptic and certainly not a vegan, but time and again, with every visit to Philly, he makes the reservation at Vedge. And you MUST try the dessert. Thanks for always making our trips to Philly the yummiest.

    Of all restaurants, we've dined in this city this one I loved the most. Very unwinding just dine, sit down and unwind enjoy the sight. Good food, reasonable price! We highly recommend this restaurant to everyone! Good veggies :)

    Very high quality vegetarian restaurant where they have replicated many foods to be vegetarian without compromising the quality. Everything was delicious and service was great. No idea how they made a vegan cheese sauce but it was so good

    We ordered some wine and I asked our waiter for his suggestion after describing what we like. He was able to make a great recommendation that we all enjoyed. Overall, I'll just say that service was on point the whole evening. The flow of our meal was never off despite being there at a very busy time.

    Overpriced and underwhelming. One of the most expensive meals of my life and it did not live up to the hype. I was very disappointed.

  • 5/5 Courtney M. 3 years ago on Google
    Without a doubt, the most incredible restaurant I have ever been to. This place made me fall in love with vegan food the first time I went. I have only been twice (I live in the Midwest) but my most recent trip was in February for Valentine’s Day (pre-covid). Our waiter was patient, knowledgeable, and prompt. My personal favorites are the carrot dish, rutabaga fondue, maitake mushroom dish, and an Indian type dish that I don’t believe is on the current menu so I cannot find the name (potato crepe of some sort). But everything is SO delicious. It’s a perfect date night spot but I went here solo the first time and felt right at home. It’s a top-tier restaurant that has yet to be beat in my book. I cannot wait to plan another flight to Philly once things are safer.

    It is now my favorite Philadelphia Restaurant and what I could possibly say what other didn't. everything is perfect in here. there is some info and my experience. We ordered some wine and I asked our waiter for his suggestion after describing what we like. He was able to make a great recommendation that we all enjoyed. They specialize in smaller dishes, so expect to eat at least 2 dishes per person. You'll try to justify ordering more, though, because they are that tasty. Make sure you save room for dessert, too, because those are just as good as the savory items. It's easy to quickly spend a lot, but it is also worth it The food and service was just as I imagined. Flavors were vast and extraordinary while the service was so prompt. Everyone should definitely visit this place as if they wanna enjoy a really good timing.

  • 5/5 shannon s. 3 years ago on Google
    Wonderful selection of food. We enjoyed the vegetable charcuterie board and chermoula grilled tofu, spicy dan dan noodles, grilled brocollini and the grilled avocado.

    I took my son to vedge yesterday for his 21th birthday dinner what an experience from the host to the server honestly everything was awesome! The food was delicious!! Definitely will be back thank you for excellent service!!!

  • 5/5 Sierra H. 3 years ago on Google
    Truly exceptional service and delicious cuisine. From the moment we were greeted by a gracious host who looked like Timothee Chalamet to our server Brian who was attentive, funny, and thoughtful, we knew we were in for a real treat. We sat outside and enjoyed the intimate setting. Brian went above and beyond to make our evening special, bringing complimentary sparkling wine to start and a scoop of chunky monkey ice cream to celebrate my dear’s birthday. The rutabaga fondue and fingerling potatoes made my heart sing, and the cocktails were a handcrafted delight. Already looking forward to our next visit!

  • 4/5 Laura P. 3 years ago on Google
    Prepare for your wallet to take a hit. Definitely worth trying once but not a place you can justify becoming a regular. The food is good no doubt, just not as good as the price would indicate.

    Harry was my server and he was excellent… 10/10! The Who’s Brian? non-alcoholic drink was delicious. The fingerling potatoes were phenomenal; I loved the Mediterranean flair. I was very sad to see the seitan, and wood-roasted carrot are no longer on the menu; please consider bringing them back!

    The eggplant braciole was amazing! The grilled tofu was also excellent. The restaurant is currently requiring proof of vaccination in order to dine in.

    Food was fantastic. The service was terrific. Highly recommend. The level was a little loud but thats to be expected for a Friday night.

  • 5/5 Alura C. 2 years ago on Google
    This place was the most amazing vegetarian restaurant I have ever eaten in my life. I traveled all of the way from New Jersey and then after reaching a few blocks away from the restaurant, traveled by foot. I wanted to see what the environment and atmosphere was like. It’s situated nice little area in Philadelphia where there seems to be a lot of happening spots for eating out and enjoying a drink or two. These dishes were so flavorful that they were like bursts of spice my mouth and I truly enjoyed it. The staff members were courteous and friendly. They went out of their way to provide fast and attentive service, as well as ensuring that me and my family were comfortable. They even gave us a very special seating accommodation where my toddlers would be safe, and not get into too many things. Made it rather easy for the adults as if I could actually relax having a meal while most toddlers are always tearing most places apart LOL. It was nice that they understood the need for closed in seating and to keep the dishes and silverware away from their reach. It was a very family oriented place. Loved it!

  • 4/5 Altinay C. 2 years ago on Google
    Delightful mix of flavors. I enjoyed the variety of tastes and textures. A little mushroom heavy for my taste buds but that's to be expected for a vegan restaurant.

  • 1/5 Z C. 2 years ago on Google
    I've come here twice and the first time was phenomenal, but this last time we came here, every dish was off, seating was really god awful as close to the door as possible with the winter air coming in everytime someone opened the door. I was going to order 2 dan dan noodles but honestly it was just such low quality I'm really glad my friend stopped me. Every single dish was not worth what we paid for and I'm really disappointed how I have to take this off my Top 10 restaurants list.

  • 5/5 Kimochi S. 2 years ago on Google
    Outstanding vegan dining experience far beyond all the vegan burger and bowl chains out there. Beautiful antike interiour, lovely staff, excellent cuisine with elegant flavours. The 'Fingerling Potatoes' were a little bit too spicy (peruvian chili) but also delicious anyway. A hungry adult should need to order three of the small plates. Reservations are easy to make in Google or their website.

  • 5/5 Flora K. 2 years ago on Google
    We had a fabulous experience at Vedge! Everything was fresh and delicious, and as you can see in the pictures it was all presented so beautifully. Our favorites were the stuffed avocado and the spicy dan dan noodles (we ordered a second they were so good!) Service was excellent and this was our top dining experience in Philadelphia!

  • 5/5 Tasha T. 9 months ago on Google
    THE BEST VEGAN FOOD I have ever had. Everything was so fresh and the taste was just to die for. The staff is so friendly and super helpful with helping pick out something good

  • 5/5 Shanty L. 9 months ago on Google
    Delisssssh food and AMAZING service. Definitely recommend 2-3 dishes per person. Very calm environment, classy restaurant. The peach cobbler 🤤 was to die for, also highly rec the Sercial to drink. To eat: Rutabaga fondue, great appetizer to share! Arepa pancake, such a fresco and light/refreshing dish. I magically paired it to be a dinner experience that didn’t leave me uncomfortably stuffed - just absolutely satisfied! And their staff were so patient with us the whole dinner. If you’re needing a vegan spot 10/10 recommend!!!

  • 4/5 Christina P. 10 months ago on Google
    I live in the DC Metro so I’ve gone to their sister restaurant Fancy Radish a bunch and had high hopes for Vedge. The space is twice as large as FR which was surprising. The menu was strong and even had some favorites like the Rutabaga Fondue and Dan Dan noodles. Most of their main dishes were good but the stars were the desserts. The Namelaka and the Budino were exceptional.

  • 5/5 Robert 11 months ago on Google
    Everything was delicious and the service was fantastic. I enjoyed the interior style and atmosphere as well. The carrot rillettes were my favorite: delicious and savory. If I could change one thing, I'd replace the soy coffee creamer with oat creamer.

    The food was delicious and the service was outstanding! The portions served are small and it's rather expensive, but I guess you get what you pay for.

  • 5/5 k b. 6 months ago on Google
    So, so, wonderfully appetizing. The drinks were amazing. The eggplant entree was delightful, not overtop at all, just enough. The cocktails are so very, dangerously good. Wonderful service and the atmosphere was perfect. Definitely want to go back and 1000% recommend.

  • 5/5 Brittani H. 6 months ago on Google
    A must-go-to restaurant if you're in Philly, even if you aren't vegan. The dishes are way larger than you think and it is actual inventive vegan fare versus just meat substitutes. Cannot recommend enough!! Make a reservation in advance.

  • 4/5 Sam Z. 5 months ago on Google
    We had a lovely dinner at this upscale vegan restaurant. A complex menu with many flavors across 12 options. We enjoyed the custom beverages and the desserts a bit more than the food though the entire experience was tasty and interesting.

Every dish that we ordered was so wonderfully presented. We had a lovely time. And everyone is friendly. Highly recommend! One of the best vegan places in town!
