24 Best Vegan Restaurants in West Des Moines

“Delicious food! Veggie spring rolls, butter chicken, and garlic naan. Try it out!“

“The best costumer service and incredible food!!“

“Celebrated or anniversary here and it was fantastic! Be sure to make reservations. Everything was top notch from the great drinks, to delicious food and superb service!“

“Super cool vibes in here. It is hip hop themed with graffiti art of rappers on the wall, and they have a fire playlist of old school classics. The breakfast egg rolls were phenomenal especially with the cilantro sriracha sauce. The biscuit sandwiches were great, it was hard to choose which one I wanted, and the pancakes here are absolutely ginormous. I recommend the iced chai, it was crafted to perfection. Next time I'll have to get the mimosa flight, it looked like a good crowd pleaser for sharing. Service and wait was way faster than I thought it would be, especially for how busy they were on a Sunday morning for brunch. I could tell the staff was hustling and working well together to get people in as quickly as possible. Thank you!“

“I want to give a shout out to Early Birds restaurant in West Des Moines. Kevin was a fantastic bartender. First time I have been here. The food was amazing. I love the atmosphere. The whole concept is great. The menu… too many things to choose from. I got the Cinnamon roll French toast. Delicious. And the Hashbrown holes delicious. It was great to get an appetizer before my French toast. I have to give a shout out to Kevin as he knows everything on the menu plus he has great suggestions for drinks from the bar! Will deffinately be going back again.“

“Just had my sons bachelor party there tonight. What a incredible venue, staff, and activity this is. They definitely provide extra mile service. Bravo to your team. My son and his friends loved it.❤️“

“We were so happy to learn about this location. Whenever visiting Des Moines, we went to the one downtown, but this is closer to our family.I love the menus they have! This time I ordered the Salmon with vegetables and was delighted with the crunchiness of the fish and how flavorful the dish was. The pictures are for the other dishes ordered. All food was superb, a signature from St Kilda. We shared a tiramisu that was super light and so yummy. To accompany it, we had hot chocolate and Australian coffee.We will be back for more!!“

“the food for all of our table looked amazing, all different menu items. the server Alba C was quite attentive and has a very friendly and caring demeanor. she even brought out a special surprise for the birthday that we were celebrating. it was great!“

“Great time. Service was great. Shots were awesome“

“This location was very clean, including the food bars which was nice to see. Our server was on top of keeping our drinks full. I kept asking about the app code and ended up not getting my points but we don't make it all that often anyway. The cooks were working hard but could have been more attentive to keeping food separated.“

“I was looking for a unique place with a plant based option in the Des Moines area. They had a really delicious vegan sausage pizza and hummus. The dough they make has a really nice chew to it, and it is cooked to perfection. Along with the really tasty food, they also have 100 beers to choose from. There are lots of local beer choices from all around Iowa. They also have crowlers that they will fill and cap for you at that moment. If you're in the area, give them a try.“

“Blaze Pizza in West Des Moines is a true gem for pizza lovers! The ambiance strikes a perfect balance between modern and cozy, ideal for any dining occasion. What stands out is their 'Build Your Own' pizza option, offering an array of fresh ingredients that cater to all tastes, cooked to perfection in a blazing oven. The staff are notably friendly and helpful, enhancing the overall experience. It's not just a meal, it's a delightful culinary adventure - highly recommended for anyone seeking top-notch pizza in a welcoming setting.“

“I thoroughly enjoyed my experience there. the atmosphere is incredibly laid back, much like that of a late '60s early 70s tea shop. the staff was incredibly friendly and their menu was diverse. if you cannot find at least one or two items to eat here, I don't think that you are really hungry. what I ate had an incredible flavor and while filling, did not make me feel like I had over eaten. bring one of these down to Springfield missouri! with the University right next to the uptown area, you would make a fortune!“

“I was so surprised when I went there and that they actually had hot sauce that was spicy. It’s so hard to find a place that has really spicy salsa ☺️“

“First time here and it was nice. The store was very clean and well thought out. The staff were very friendly and helpful since it was our first time. We chose simple vanilla with brownie. It was interesting watching how the rolled ice cream was made and the ice cream was good but it tasted more like “lite” ice cream with “brownie sprinkles”. It was a “mini show” but I guess I am more of a “traditional” ice cream person but would recommend for a first time experience.“

“Let's start with the chips and salsa. Better than average chips with excellent salsa. Meni items had very large portions. Our group of four enjoyed their meals. The highlight was the Pollo Delight. Pressed chicken breast cooked in a tangy sauce with shrimp and pineapple. The mexican coleslaw that came with it was great. The low spot for me was the chicken in the chimichanga. Although there was more chicken than I could eat, it seemed to be fresh out of a can. No real chicken cooked in sauce.“

“My partner and I have gotten sushi from Banana Leaf several times now, and it never disappoints! We usually start with the pork pot stickers and get some sushi rolls to share, and they have all been fresh and delicious.“

“We are fully staff. Stop by for a fast and friendly service. See you soon. Thank you Rios General Manager“

“Highly recommend! Very glad that we stopped here on our way through Iowa. Had a bunch of different appetizers (portobello fries, roasted Brussels sprouts, pretzels with beer cheese, pub salad) and beignets for dessert, all of which were delicious. They have a huge variety of beers, as well as some really tasty cocktails, and we enjoyed creating our own flights. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the bartender in particular was very knowledgeable about all the different breweries, styles and particular beers. The space was clean and comfortable. It would be the perfect place to host a party. Wish we had this place in our city!“

“Great place love the atmosphere“

“Drive thru closed 15 minutes before closing but went inside for our order! Otherwise terrific“

“The restaurant is immaculate. Floors gleam, spills cleaned up immediately. Staff is courteous and helpful. Buffet has a wide variety, appealing to differing tastes. Music is relaxing. A good place for a leisurely meal.“

“We had a great experience today Paul our server was excellent oh, you did a great job from start to finish really appreciate it is great customer service. My brother was very impressed with the Durango Burger said it was the best burger he is ever had in his life. My cheeseburger with bacon was very good as well took the way I like it. Appreciate the great service and hospitality and food that we enjoy.“

“Wife and I enjoyed the Hibachi for dinner. We ordered the NY Strip Steak and Chicken dishes (We were able to get these gluten free). The portions were perfect size and the chef was great. Absolutely 0 complaints and would come back again next time we're in town.“
