With the help of many local vegetarian societies, we've selected over 500 of the top vegetarian & natural food restaurants around the USA and placed them in our FREE City & State Guides.

Important Note: It is very uncommon for natural food restaurants to be open for breakfast.

A great restaurant is more than just good food, attentive service and a pleasing ambience. Integrity is the important ingredient that is all too often missing. We've selected the restaurants we include on VegetarianUSA because they maintain a high level of integrity throughout, not only in the ingredients themselves, but in the love and care that goes into the preparation of the entire menu.

Great restaurants are also places for feeding the spirit as well as the body---the architecture, artwork and plants should all contribute to a experiencing a good feeling within your soul. A casual, smoke-free environment, friendly service, and reasonable prices all contribute to a positive dining experience.

Special diets and doctor-prescribed regimens are often catered to, including: no/low fat, low salt or salt-free, low calorie, and vegan (no dairy or eggs - see glossary). Serving styles range from salad bars, to Smorgasbords, to elegantly presented gourmet fare.

A few examples of the many cuisines to be found in the hundreds of natural food restaurants listed include Mediterranean, Indian, Mexican, Nouvelle Italian, African, Chinese, Greek, Kosher, Macrobiotic, and Living Foods. On this site, non-members can search by metro area or state, and Natural Home & Travel Guide™ Club members can also search by city.

When traveling, this guide will help you find a good natural food restaurant that may not otherwise be widely advertised. Don't be caught on a long journey and find yourself eating, "less than desirable" food because you didn't have one (or more) of our FREE City & State Guides in the car. "Bon Appetite" and good luck!
