There’s more than 20 vegan restaurants in Las Vegas. From Asian to tacos and literally everything in between, there’s no wonder Las Vegas is one of the top cities in the US for vegan food.
But, if you’re only in Las Vegas for a few days, or want the absolute best eats in town right now, picking the spot isn’t necessarily easy. Fortunately, you came to the right spot. After eating my way through Las Vegas for seven years, I have the immense joy to share the best vegan food near me during that time. These 10 best vegan restaurants in Las Vegas are based on my years of dining out, checking out every vegan restaurant in town and sharing them with you.
Ok, so it’s impossible to pick only one best vegan restaurant in Las Vegas. It’s even hard to pick 11. However, I’ve managed to narrow the pool based on what makes each special.

What makes it special: BLACKOUT is the only restaurant in Las Vegas that offers the dining in the dark concept. From the time you walk into the dining room until the time you leave, it’s pitch black. Staff are equipped with night vision goggles and guests are left to enjoy a sensory experience that relies on all the other senses but sight. What I love most about this spot is that it doesn’t advertise it’s vegan. In fact, you don’t even know until the end of the meal when you’re presented with the menu.
