Best Vegan Restaurants in Ballard

We finally made it here after years of walking by the door! The restaurant is much larger than it looks from the outside. Beautiful decor, great service, live music, and fantastic menu. We got lucky and were seated in the back room with a view!

This was my second time at Stoneburner, and once again, they hit it out of the park. The service was impeccable. Our server (whose name I believe was Ally?) was attentive and friendly without being intrusive. I can't even begin to describe the flavors in the food. The Pork Chop, Tuna appetizer, and mushrooms were bursting with delightful surprises. The pumpkin dessert was so good that we discovered the owners also run Sabine. Naturally, we headed there the next morning to enjoy pastries (crafted by the same pastry chef) and coffee. The decor at Stoneburner is perfect—intimate and absolutely beautiful. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

Great server, fast service, excellent food. Perfect post movie.

This was my second visit and while very good, not quite as enjoyable as my first visit which was in the early summer. I will definitely be back, but may take a while longer. I deeply appreciate the experience and what they are trying to do to elevate vegan cuisine. Sadly, this visit was a bit underwhelming. A couple of the dishes were a swing and a miss, in my opinion, in terms of both flavor and preparation. Just kind of basic, boring, or in one case, rather poorly prepared. The wine pairings were very good, however. Service was a little off this evening too. One issue in particular: My partner REALLY did not like the main course. After they placed it, it was obvious she was no enjoying it, but no one visited to inquire (at this price point, for a single-seating event where everyone is getting the same dish served at the same time, this is not really acceptable). When we later mentioned this, instead of offering to make amends (they had earlier served a soup that required no real prep which she loved, which they could have served her), we were told "Oh next time you can tell us things you don't like and we'll make sure to make something else for you". Nice offer, but they don't publish their menu, so there is no way to really know. Tasting menus can be tricky this way, and we have done MANY, but my main gripe was that they didn't make any attempt, nor make monetary compensation. "Too bad". Kind of made the experience far less "magical".

Had a wonderful dinner out with girlfriends here. Easy to order family style and share dishes, loved the squash and chicken. Server was helpful, recommending items and came to check on us regularly without being overbearing.
