Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Lee's Summit

"The Succotash restaurant is a Kansas City staple opened in 2001 by Beth Barden. Its name was inspired by the song Groove is in the Heart, specifically the lyrics “my supper dish, my succotash wish.” It came to her while she pushed through exhaustion one late night working on the restaurant’s interior. Styled using an eclectic kitschy décor, Succotash is a true labor of love featuring large windows, slender columns, a patterned vaulted ceiling, wacky artwork, and a myriad of tables paired with various colorful chairs."

"The atmosphere of Succotash is about as hip and energetic as the name of the place itself. Succotash prides itself in supporting local vendors for ingredients used in their dishes. In addition to an in-depth brunch menu, locals in Kansas City can also utilize Succotash for their catering services."

"Breakfast-&-lunch joint drawing weekend crowds with hearty American eats & a hip, quirky vibe. Don’t miss the delicious brunch offerings. Crossroads/Crown Center/Westside"

"Blue Bird Bistro is one of the original farm-to-table restaurants in Kansas City, featuring a menu that is all-natural, organic, sustainable, and utilizes only the freshest local ingredients. A landmark in the Westside community, they feature a rustic design with eclectic decor providing a warm and welcoming ambiance. Open 7 days a week for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, they offer an array of mid-American style menu items made with locally grown ingredients."

"A place where delicious meets organic Blue Bird Bistro is my brunch location for anyone trying to eat a little more natural. Sourced by local farms and organic grocers I've never had a bad thing on the menu and last time I was there they had this locally farmed bison sausage that was absolute fire."

"Kansas City’s oldest Ethiopian restaurant and City Market anchor is known for its vegan dishes, which are more than half of their menu. The Blue Nile has strict food preparation methods which make sure that the vegan dishes are always vegan. Try: Inguday Watt (mushrooms), Gomen (collard greens), Misir Watt (lentils) and the Vegetarian Combo Platter."

"Ethiopian fare served up at a popular lunch buffet, then transforming into a warm and cozy traditional dining experience for dinner. Don’t miss the coffee ceremony. Downtown/River Market/West Bottoms"

"Kansas City's oldest Ethiopian restaurant, featuring traditional Ethiopian cuisine and culture. Located in the historic City Market. Known for its vegan options and traditional dishes."

"Eden Alley uses local, organic ingredients to create flavorful meals with, "DIVINE FLAVOR for the CONSCIOUS EATER," as stated on their website. You can find many delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner items such as Lavender Pecan Chocolate Chip French Toast  which is vegan and soy free, or try the Grilled Tofu Ruelke Sandwich. Plus Boozy Bonus, they also serve alcohol!"

"Since 1994, Eden Alley Cafe has served refreshing and divine vegan cuisine. Not only are their meals to die for, but they also have quick service and a lovely outside view of the plaza. This small business also focuses on waste reduction and recycling so they make mouth-watering food while helping the environment!"

"Excellent Chinese take-out in south Kansas City with many vegetarian options. Try: Tofu with Black Beans & Garlic Sauce (one of our favorites). 13003 State Line Rd, Kansas City, MO 64145, 816-943-6100"

"Not only will you find them on most dessert menus around town, but locals often pair the sweet treat with a bowl of chili as a complete meal. (Don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it.) It’s hard to pin down exactly which restaurant makes the best cinnamon rolls, but our vote goes to Big Momma’s Bakery and Cafe. Since opening in Raytown in 2004 (there’s also a new Kansas City location off I-435), Big Momma’s has garnered quite the reputation for its cakes and breads, but especially for its cinnamon rolls, which come in three sizes: the bite-sized Mini Momma, the dinner roll–sized Little Momma, and the Big Momma, which is about the size of a salad plate."

"Located on Bannister Road just east of Highway 71, Big Momma’s serves up luscious cakes, cupcakes, brownies, pies, cookies and cinnamon rolls. You can also get heartier fare here, including chicken salad sandwiches, biscuits and gravy, and breakfast sandwiches. Big Momma’s Bakery & Café, 4707 Bannister Road, Ste B, Kansas City, Missouri, 816.765.0800, bigmommaskc.com"

"With some of the best and most unique flavors (like Sweet Potato & Marshmallow, Earl Grey Tea & Apricot, Goat Cheese and Cherry, and Gingerbread), Glacé is fun to visit every time. Created by the Willy Wonka of Kansas City, Christopher Elbow, Glacé is staunchly local, using local beers, coffee, produce, and most importantly, milk to create their seasonal and delicious flavors. I find a new favorite every time I go (be sure to try the Earl Grey Tea if they have it!) and love trying the more unique creations like Goat Cheese and Cherry–the unique creations are always extremely loyal to their flavors, but absolutely perfect in ice cream form."

"Opened in 1998, the Classic Cookie & Café is a family-owned and operated eatery built from the ground up by Leslie Stockard, her children, and family members. A true-blue neighborhood spot, they cook up classic American-style dishes with a Kansas City influence. Menu items include dishes such as the herbed potato and sausage casserole made with Italian sausage and seasoned potatoes topped with poached eggs, cheddar cheese, sour cream, and green onions."

"This place is a solid hidden gem in Kansas City and I absolutely LOVED the food!. They even bring out a little plate with their baked items to try and I’m not... (816) 800-4075Order online"
