50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Harrisburg

“Late to the party with this review, but a couple of weeks back I met my nephew, Daniel, and his girl Lauren, along with Michael and a friend from scouts. We had capped off a scout trip to Gettysburg with a day at Hersheypark, and then we were invited to dine at The Millworks before the ride home.We started with tbe Fried Brussel Sprouts. Memory is a little faded on these, and unfortunately they're not listed on the online menu, and I don't have a completely accurate memory of the ingredients, but it was something like bacon, sliced apples, cranberries, apple cider reduction...whatever it was, man they were awesome, and I'd like them again.I had the 16 Hour Ramen. I really could've done a dozen other things, and would've liked a couple of more appetizers and maybe a pizza or two passed around the table, but I had a long drive home ahead of me and I didn't want to be stuffed. Anyhow, the ramen was fantastic. It had a nice rich broth, and was topped with an egg that was runny on top and fried crispy on the bottom for a really nice blend of textures. It also featured noodles, kimchi, toasted peanuts, watermelon radish, pea shoots, cilantro, amd homemade hot sauce. Anyhow, on top of the rich broth, the dominant flavors here were from the smoked brisket, roasted peanuts, and the kimchi. What an amazing mix of flavors it was, too. Not something I ever would've thought too mix up, but it sure worked.The boys had the House Cheeseburgers, described as; wood grilled cheeseburger, tomato jam, bistro sauce, cooper sharp cheese, lettuce, onion, half sour pickles, on a local brioche bun with house made potato chips. Both elected to top their burgers with bacon and fried egg. From what I saw , the burgers were a perfect medium rare, and Michael, who is a bit of a burger connoisseur, declared his one of the best ever. I did manage to snatch a couple of homemade chips, and they were still warm and crispy, with flavors of sea salt, pepper, and celery seed in the topping.Nephew Daniel had a wood fired pizza with italian sausage and tomato, and topped with fresh arugala. Looked fantastic, and again made me wish we had sampled a couple more, and Lauren enjoyed the Apple Spinach Endive salad, with honeycrisp apple, shaved fennel, gorgonzola, shaved celery, toasted pecans, endive, frisee, and baby spinach, dressed in a hot honey balsamic vinaigrette. Unfortunately I didn't snap a shot of this one, but it too looked excellent.Neat thing about The Millworks is that it is also a functioning art gallery and studio space. The walls are lined with works for sale, and on the second floor, even on a Sunday evening, several artists in residence were working on creating and peddling their wares.If you happen to be in Hersheypark, or Harrisburg or Gettysburg, and you need something a little better than the carny food, The Millworks isn't far off, and the quality makes it well worth the drive. Prices are sort of mid range, with a few higher end items that are reflected in price. But a broad range of sandwiches, salads, and pizzas,(which could feed two, especially with an app or salad, too,)are under are under twenty bucks. Service was prompt and friendly, and it's definitely a welcoming place to come hang out.Oh, and I almost forgot, and I have no review, but there is an on-site brewery as well. Some of the choices were quite interesting. Our hosts for the evening however were non drinkers, as we're my two boy scout guests, and figured I should be also, as I had a three hundred mile ride home scheduled after dinner. But next time, and there will be a next time, I'll sample a couple of those fresh brews, too.“

“This place shatters the whole image of "hole-in-the-wall" restaurants. I'm generally vegetarian, no dairy or eggs, either and I really enjoyed the samosa and the yellow dal but my wife got some mango chicken and talked me into trying the sauce on some nan (I know I'm not spelling any of this stuff right) and we both loved it so much that we simply had to order some to take back to the hotel with us for later which they not only were happy to prepare without the chicken, insisting on a discounted price for us, but sent us away with a free mango yogurt smoothie as well. The place is only 40 minutes from our house and we didn't even know it existed. It's very makeshift in furnishings, but comfy, cozy, well-lit, and as friendly as the day is long. There's just no downside to the place!“

“Bhojan Ghar is my favorite Nepali restaurant! The food is authentic and the staff is very friendly. I love the momo, appetizers,, dal bhat, biryani and curry dishes. The mango lassi is great also. My family will definitely return to eat soon!“

“I visited here on a Tuesday at 6pm for a work-related and social gathering. The service and food were quite good, yet even on a weekday and being upstairs, the decibel level was rather high dye to it also being a bar. The menu selection was more than adequate and prices reasonable. Street parking can be a challenge, however I found a safe spot about one block away, and parking was free after 5pm on weekdays. The restroom was clean, and I find this important in that if management doesn't prioritize bathrooms, they may not value kitchen cleanliness either, but maybe that's just me. I give it a 4 star and not a 5 due to noise“

“Pizza in the area can be hit or miss but David's is always consistently delicious!! Nice thin crust, cheese has great flavor and the sauce is the perfect blend of savory and sweet. The hoagies are handmade sub rolls and loaded with fresh ingredients. We also enjoy their Stromboli as well. Easy ordering and quick service .. prices are reasonable too. Definitely a must check out joint!“

“The young woman Jill could tell we were newbies. She came around the counter and explained everything to us and even made recommendations. The food was ready quickly and Jill even included some peach cobbler for us to try for being new. The lemonade was just like fair lemonade. The food was above and beyond our expectations. The place was clean and we loved the look. Scott checked on us often and even brought us cups to put sauce in on a tray so we could easily try them all. He also displayed over the top customer service. At the end he brought us boxes to put our left overs in and asked if we would ever return. After we told him we loved it and would tell everybody we know about it and that we would for sure be back in the future he gave us each a coupon for a complimentary sandwich! We live 7.5 hours away and are on vacation. We had some very bad luck recently and some less than pleasant news this morning while on vacation. These guys made our day with their amazing food and exceptional customer service. Best place we have ever been between food, decor, cleanliness, and customer service!“

“Enjoy going to this restaurant very much. It's usually quiet, which is nice. No television, No music. So you can talk with the people you're with.Although there is a buffet, the service is always friendly and homey. The food is good. And while they do not have a bar, you can BYOB.In addition to the buffet, they have an extensive menu from which you can order.The buffet and the menu feature both vegetarian and meat dishes.This is a nice, family-run restaurant. Highly recommended!“

“This first thing you notice in here is the cleanliness. The food is remarkable. I had the stir fry with chicken and the spring rolls. The peanut sauce that comes with the spring rolls is out of this world. Staff members are fast, efficient, and friendly. For someone looking to get into Pho, start here.“

“To place an order, you're better off calling. I hate when you stand at the counter and they leave you waiting for a long time on your break I stood at the counter for 10 minutes and called twice to see how long it would take for them to take an order over the phone and the same people standing in front of you answer the phone at two different counters and yet don't even bother to take your order that you are standing in front of them.“

“This is a little Hidden Gem Taco Shop the food is very good considering the price it is extremely reasonable the steak tacos leave a little bit to be desired but the chicken tacos are absolutely fantastic I recommend them over the steak tacos the steak was grizzly a bit dry so I don't recommend it but the chicken tacos were fantastic and I highly recommend them make sure you ask for their house hot sauce it's delicious“

“The food was just awesome. I come up for the Dog Show couple times a year and a worker here told me about the place I tried it and I go every time I come here never had a bad meal highly recommended, but order a day ahead of time if you can.“

“Fantastic tacos! I had chicken, pork, and carna asada tacos, with rice and beans. Perfection! The meat was tasty and perfectly done. Topped with Onions and cilantro. Lime slices and jalapeño slices on the side. I got the homemade hot sauce Which was tasty. Highly recommend!“

“Lahori Kabab is One of our Favorite place to eat, since we areFrom Lahore the there Food Always Reminds us about Lahore i wish they could add Goat Feets (chootay Payiae) in the Buffet,there Staff is also very helpful. We occasionally Go for Buffet Lunch with Friends.Thanks Lahori Kabab.☺️“

“The food was delicious. There were 6 of us who tried different entrees and everyone's food was great. Desserts were also amazing! Service was good despite how busy they were. There was a live band playing which added to our enjoyment. We'll be back!“

“This place is amazing. We found it by chance while traveling. The food is top notch, super delicious. Staff was super friendly, recommended some specialities and was very fast getting the food to us. This place can easily compete with other restaurants and I highly recommend you give it a try, even if you need to wait a little during rush hours.@El Sol Express: Keep all things as is. You guys rock!“

“This place. Is so good. Tried two very different beers which were both awesome. And the food. The best pulled pork, no bun or additional sauce even needed. So very tasty. I don’t eat fries much, I’m not a potato person, but I even enjoyed the fries! So glad we stumbled upon this place!“

“This little, unassuming, homey place has the BEST food and the waitstaff is DELIGHTFUL. My favorite restaurant in the Harrisburg area, and I don't think you can find a better steak anywhere on the east coast. I look forward to eating here every single time I'm in town :)“

“Great food and very reasonable prices. The people working at this restaurant were very nice and went out of their way to make sure our food was good and that we had everything we needed. It was a welcome change from most of the pizza places in the area.“

“One of the gems of linglestown! My husband and I love mellow minded. We have come countless times and you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. All of the staff are very kind, helpful, and personable. An extra added bonus is the art features from local artists. 10/10“

“SUCH FAST SERVICE! Our first time visiting, the location was easy to find and had a parking lot for the shopping center which was great. It was a bit hot inside the restaurant but nothing crazy. When we walked in a nice gentleman helped us figure out what we wanted to have, and before we were even done paying we already had our food. My sandwich wasn't hot but it was warm which was also okay. The cheese fries were super hot and fresh and were amazing. The taste of everything was great and the price is absolutely amazing! Definitely give this place a try you won't regret it!“

“(Obviously we are a pizza family with all my reviews ?) I used to go here 30 years ago when I lived close. Always got an Italian sub because they were the best around. Needless to say, they still didn't disappoint! The pizza is just like I remember! Thanks for the memories and we'll be back again!“

“My family loves this place. We come here once to twice a month. It's not a nice looking area but the food is out of this world. It's better than Sawsadee, Chalit's Thai bistro, Sakulnya, etc. We have been to all the Thai in Harrisburg, Mechanicsburg, Camp Hill and this one is the best. This is the #1 Asian restaurant in Harrisburg/Mechanicsburg area per Trip Advisor. Saw the article on MSN. Was surprised. Congrats, Bangkok 56!“

“A great time, great food and service. Yin yang martinis are fantastic! With six people we had two burners, so two different cheeses (Quattro fortino and cheddar bourbon bacon) both top of the line! Filet lignin, shrimp and chicken were our favorite meats though we tried duck, pork, salmon and mushroom ravioli, all delicious. Even the salads were great! Nikita our server was fantastic.“

“This is my closest Vietnamese Resturant to me . I went and tried some of the classic dishes such as rice and pho house special . Parking was easy . Service was fast and helpful as well . The food i would give it a 4/5 as it did give me the flavor but feel like missing something . Pricing was also a bit high for standard Vietnamese restaurants in the area considering their portions. Overall i would give 4/5 just from missing out on a little more flavor in their dishes.“

“We ordered a Romano large pizza and it was the best pizza! We wanted it well done not burnt and it was exactly how we wanted it!!! Ten stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️We will definitely order again.Dietary restrictions: N/A“

“Denise, thank you for being the absolute best! You served us dinner more nights than not! The food is amazing, but, you are such a special person! We’re leaving the state..it’s not goodbye, it’s see ya later! ❤️❤️ Love, your favorite suckholes!“

“Today was the first time ever being here! The chef clearly is passionate about food! Everything was absolutely wonderful! It is a small space so reservations would probably be best. The bartender Ariana was a blast and definitely has a passion for making specialty cocktails! Definitely a 10/10 place to dine.“

“Friendly staff, good food when traveling through the area. We had a couple apps, flight of beer sampler, and multiple meal. All the food was good. Lemon blueberry shanty was terrific. Minimal GF options, but did put my burger on a bed of lettuce. Staff was super friendly and helpful.“

“Stopped here for a late breakfast on a Wednesday. I would estimate the diner was at about 50%. There was no wait to be seated and the server immediately stopped by to ask what I'd like to drink. The coffee was fresh, the creamers were cold, and they even had Splenda. I ordered the corned beef hash with 2 eggs. This came with some toast and potatoes on the side. The food came out quickly and was cooked right. The server frequently came by to ask if I wanted a refill on my coffee. I really appreciate this gesture over the ones who just pour away. Even though it wasn't listed on their door with all the other major brands, they accepted my American Express. Adding some pics of the menu from today.“

“I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. This is a small, cozy and local restaurant. It feels like sitting in someone living room. Make reservations! The food was excellent and the service was amazing. Emailed Ruth for reservations and she was ver responsive even though I missed my original reservation. It was pricey but definitely worth it. Great for a date night. No complaints about my experience! I will come again! Something different that made this place stand out, when they bring you the check it's in a little notebook and you can weite a nice message about your experience. Nice touch. I guess that's why they call it "Note".“

“We come to this restaurant every year and it is always great. The food was excellent and diverse. Service as always right on with delivery and removing finished dished. I have never had a bad meal from the pot stickers, soft shell crab, flat bread or chicken always really good.“

“Absolutely delicious! Had the hibachi chicken for under $20 and very friendly staff. A great find!The only thing that I would ask is if they can go easy on the soy sauce or make the food less salty… we needed lots of water after our meal.Ask for a delicious Japanese pop, yum!“

“The pizza is TOP notch. One of the best pizza places I have ever had. The grandma style is amazing as well as a normal hand tossed pie. I have ordered over a dozen times and have NEVER been disappointed! That is super rare to get consistently great quality food“

“We had reservations for Valentine’s Day dinner and the experience could not have been any better. Our server was friendly and attentive. The drinks were very good. The food was absolutely delicious. I had been here before and knew the food was good so I was expecting that and was not disappointed. We would have tried dessert but we had other plans. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. Parking is in the street or across the street in a city garage. Check Harrisburg parking authority for days/times/rates. Stock’s ownership also owns Carley’s Piano Bar around the corner so be sure to check them out as well.Dietary restrictions: I’m sure they would accommodate any requests zParking: Easy parking on the street or in the garage across the street. Check Harrisburg parking authority for days/times/ratesWheelchair accessibility: No stairs to get in and there is plenty of space to maneuver a walker/wheelchair but I would call to confirm.“

“We go here all the time for pizza and subs.Cheese steaks have a great flavor coupled with their awesome fries.Pizza has a nice blend of flavor in the sauce with mozzerella cheese, which isn't greasy like other places. Cold or hot, their slices are the best.For dinner you can't beat getting a loaf of bread and sauce to go with your meal.Best pizza around in Linglestown area at a very reasonable price. Used to work in pizza shops growing up, so I'm really picky about where we go.This place has it all.“

“Excellent authentic Vietnamese cuisine.Roast pork is delicious. Lemongrass chicken is good, but was lacking sodium. Noodle soups are all great. But the Bun Bo Hue was my least favorite out of all of them; still quite good though. The Banh Mi’s are excellent! And they use fresh bread from Ba Le Bakery in Philly! ?The prepackaged To-Go foods are also excellent!“

“Quick friendly service, in a space with lots of neighborly charm. The food is fantastic, there are board games to be play if you are looking to hang around a while. And let's be clear, the ginger molasses cookies are NOT TO BE MISSED. They are so good. I dream about them. I get one every time I stop by--which is whenever I can!“

“The Oven Baked Mussels are out of this world! The Maryland Spring Rolls and Gyoza were also outstanding. The was Sushi Special had a nice selection of random pieces that were fresh and tasty!We ordered carryout, so I don't have much of a comment on the service and atmosphere other than the order was correct and timely.“

“Another place I was referred to by a local gentleman for pizza. The pies are personal sized and they were very good! They use provolone instead of straight mozzarella which gives the thin crust pies a distinct and delicious flavor.Small little old timey place that you can tell has been there for many, many years.Can't speak to anything else but the pizza was very good.“

“Great place to seat down and talk/eat the ladies are all friendly. The food is always good, and it just feels like an old school dinner.Parking: Parking in the front and back of building.Kid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Parking right at the front 8 feet from door , and there is a little ramp up“

“We recently hosted a semi-private event at Federal Taphouse and the service, food, and atmosphere were all phenomenal. They were very easy to work with and set aside multiple tables and a convenient spot at the bar for our party of 35. There was an extensive list of beers and drinks, the guests raved about the food, especially the tacos, and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. The servers/bartenders went above and beyond to be responsive and attentive to our large group's needs. Definitely would recommend for anyone considering an event there.“

“our server, Ken, was absolutely phenomenal. he provides excellent service to his tables. he makes the whole experience delightful. if you visit here be sure to request Ken for an awesome experience and delicious food. you will not be disappointed!!“

“Steve is a great cook. takes pride in seasoning the food he serves to people. The bartenders are on it you get a drink very quickly. I usually get the gyro which is always tasty but got the burger sub tonight & it was great. Nice to still have a smoking bar with great food. Good specials to choose from. If you want great food & are a smoker here you go try it out they won’t disappoint you.“

“Huge portions at a reasonable price! The guy who owns this is is so friendly. I absolutely loved the chicken over rice and gyro! So flavorful, and the chicken was so tender. The rice and pita bread were so soft. I love all the sauce too, I definitely recommend for a late night eat after going out.“

“Was the first time I’ve felt pleasantly surprised when I opened the bill eating out with a family of 4 in a long time. Has the cheeseburger and gyro. Both were great! Had a gluten free bun option for the cheeseburger. Highly recommend!Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten free options.“

“Want to experience authentic Mexican cuisine without traveling to Mexico? This is the place. Great street style tacos on corn tortillas. So reasonably priced too. I love this place. All the different meats are good but I prefer the chicken and beef. Usually comes with a tasty cooked pepper and all kinds of delicious salsas. If you want authentic tacos, nothing in the area comes close. It is known for great food at a reasonable price. it is casual dining with basic booth seating. Not in the nicest part of Harrisburg, but completely safe during the day.“

“My kids and I usually get Roberto's for movie nights and we all love it. Usually order through Slice app and never any issues with the order accuracy or special notes to accommodate picky eaters. Lobby is usually packed around dinner time, but it is also small. Plenty of seating though! Most recent order my pizzas apparently disappeared, but they immediately remade them and there was minimal wait (plus bonus of being extra hot and fresh). Surprised no offer of discount, free 2 Liter, or anything else, but I also didn't ask/expect/feel entitled to it. Guys working are friendly and took care of the issue immediately. Definitely recommend, pizza and subs are always amazing here!Parking: Few spots out front, but more room to side by dumpster.Wheelchair accessibility: Would be very hard-pressed to maneuver a wheelchair in/out due to very tight lobby.“

“All the stars. The breakfast burrito was delicious. Everything there is made super fresh right next to you. None of that Perkins nonsense. The pancake was incredible. Lots of Harrisburg regulars coming in with "usuals" and it's super cute how the people there know their orders and names by heart.“

“Love the atmosphere here, which is relaxed but still appropriate for an intimate meal. Service was attentive as well. Even better is the food! All the entrees looked great. We had the braciole and roasted chicken. So many other choices, too. The limoncello cake for dessert was so good! Highly recommend and we will be back any time we are close.“
