A Vegan's Guide To Las Vegas
So, maybe you're vegan like Lisa Simpson and Paul McCartney. And
aybe you're planning a trip soon to Las Vegas. Well, then this guide is
for you! Let's face it, it can be very hard to find vegan
eats while you're traveling. This is especially the case in fabulous
Las Vegas where the buffets are all-you-can-eat and the shrimp cocktails
are always 99 cents. Don't be too sad, though, because among the
glitz, gambling and Celine Dion fans amazing vegan food can be found!
It's my honor to brig to you, as one vegan to another, an unabashed
guide to eating vegan in the city of sin. Viva Las Vegas! Or should we
say, Viva Las Vegan?! Enjoy!
1) RONALD'S DONUTS
Ronald's Donuts!
An oasis of donut-y beauty for the Vegas vegan with a sweet tooth!
This place is heaven sent! The perfect spot to grab an afternoon treat
or grab breakfast after a long night on the town. This place is
AMAZING. Vegans from Southern California literally pilgrimage to
Ronald's Donuts because it's THAT GOOD. And for all you non-vegans -
don't worry, they've got you covered! Ronald's has both vegan and
non-vegan options for donut lovers of every diet! Ronald's Donuts is
located a little bit off of the beaten track, so you'll need a car to
get to it. It's about 15 minutes from the Las Vegas strip and can be
found at 4600 Spring Mountain Road, Las Vegas, NV 89102.
The Bronze Cafe
is a low-key spot to grab lunch or casual dinner while on your Las
Vegas adventure. From pitas to sandwiches, The Bronze Cafe has got you
covered! Try their LGBTQ sandwich after their location's namesake
(they're located in Las Vegas' LGBT Center. Check out The Bronze
Cafe at 401 Sout Maryland Pkwy, Las Vegas, NV 89101.
Oh my goodness. La Cave
is INCREDIBLE. Okay, so this is the spot you must go to if you want to
get dressed up for a nice dinner out on the town. La Cave is located
in the Wynn Hotel on the Las Vegas strip. Steve Wynn, the owner and
namesake of the Wynn Hotel, switched to a vegan diet in 2010 after
watching the documentary Eating by Mike Anderson. After becoming
a vegan, Wynn announced that he would add animal-free menus to all his
restaurants. La Cave offers a drool-worthy selection of vegan options
including mushroom tortellini with arugula and cashew "cream" sauce
(OMG!) and vegan salt roasted beets with vegan cheese and pistachio
(DROOLING!). They've got a bunch of other vegan options on their menu,
which you can check out here.
Oh, and I forgot to mention that La Cave is named "la cave" for a
reason - you kind of feel like you're eating in a magical cave while
you're there. La Cave is located inside the Wynn Hotel at 3131 South
Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89109.
Who
doesn't love pizza, am I right?! Staying up way past your bedtime and
having fun as you do in Vegas is pretty much a recipe for a pizza
craving. Thank goodness Pop Up Pizza
exists to take care of even the worst pizza craving! They're located
near Fremont Street, so you can walk to them from the Las Vegas Strip,
they deliver and they're open late every night - that's a home
run in my book! You can pretty much make any pizza vegan at Pop Up
Pizza and all of their desserts are vegan friendly! Now that's
impressive! Pop Up Pizza is located at 1 South Main Street, Las Vegas,
NV 89101.
Anything with the words "red velvet" in it automatically makes me think delicious thoughts. Red Velvet Cafe,
boasting two locations in Las Vegas, is where you've got to go for
dessert on your Vegas vegan venture. Vanilla chocolate chip cake? Yes
please! Double chocolate fudge cake? Okay! Those are just a few of
the many amazing vegan desserts that Red Velvet has waiting for you to
devour. Red Velvet Cafe is located at 7875 W Sahara Avenue, Suite
103, Las Vegas, NV 89117 and Fashion Show Mall, 3200 Las Vegas Blvd,
Suite 1850, Las Vegas, NV 89109.
If you eat at all of these spots on your next trip, you'll be like - "Put a fork in me, Las Vegas. I'M DONE."
