I’m amazed at how good this vegan pizza place is and I’m ready to visit again! Great pizza, great taste, you don’t notice there’s no cheese or meats! My fave was the broccoli and beyond sausage pizza. A little salty but the little balls of “mozzarella” was almost indistinguishable from real cheese.

Soul Burger located in Randwick, Sydney is a top pick for vegan restaurants. All of the burgers contain vegan patties that are incredibly meaty tasting it might be unnerving.

16) Otto Ristorante Sydney
Key Service | Long-running vegan menu |
Address | Area 8, 6 Cowper Wharf Roadway, Woolloomooloo NSW 2011, Australia |
Website | https://ottoristorante.com.au/sydney/ |
Phone | +61 2 9368 7488 |
Operating Hours | Monday Closed Tuesday Closed Wednesday 12–8:45PM Thursday 12–8:45PM Friday 12–8:45PM Saturday 12–8:45PM Sunday 12–8:45PM |
You might assume the long-running vegan menu at Otto was inspired by some righteous celebrity. After all, this glitzy Woolloomooloo institution is known for being a wharfside runway for stars, and there are many A-listers who are pin-ups for the plant-based diet. Turns out a regular – a vegan diner who has been visiting fortnightly for a decade – was the one who sparked executive chef Richard Ptacnik’s experiments with animal-free dining.
Key Differentiators:
- Refined Italian dishes
- Offers a wide variety of vegetarian and vegan dishes
- Elegant setting
Customer’s Review:
Delicious Italian food, great service, beautiful location. There is a well-thought-out vegan menu and the two dishes I had were fantastic.

17) Kindred
Key Service | Italian vegetarian restaurant |
Address | 137 Cleveland St, Darlington NSW 2008, Australia |
Website | https://www.kindredrestaurant.com.au/ |
Phone | 02 8937-0530 |
info@kindredrestaurant.com.au | |
Operating Hours | Dinner: Tuesday to Saturday 5.30pm – last booking 8.45pm Lunch: Friday and Saturday 12.00pm – last booking 2.15pm |
If you’re vegetarian, an Italian menu can feel like a game of chance. However, at Kindred in Darlington, Matt Pollock’s homey 40 seater restaurant, plant-based options dominate the menu. In the 18 months since this neighbourhood Italian opened, the former A Tavola chef has shifted towards offering more vegan dishes that aren’t only cheaper for patrons–but also more popular among customers. Therefore, it’s easy to see why regulars are embracing the switch from standard meat-centric fare to tailored vegan cuisine here.
Key Differentiators:
- Everything is made fresh and in house
- Sensational tasting menu
- Great value for money
Customer’s Review:
Kindred last night was amazing. From service to food everything was on point. Manager was accommodating when we asked to move tables.

Pilgrims Cafe is the perfect place to go if you’re seeking for one of the finest vegetarian restaurants in town.
