This was hands down some of the best vegan food I've had. Been mostly plant based for about 7 years now. I'm so sad I didn't find out about them sooner on my visit to Charlotte. But I will absolutely be back!!! Adie was absolutely excellent in explaining the menu and sharing her favorites! (I gave her a personal to let her know how wonderful her recommendations were) The fries are delicious. Seasoning so so good! I had my mouth set on the biscoff cookie shake, they only had Oreo. I tried it but it was just ok. Highly recommend giving out bigger straws b/c it was a headache sucking that shake through lol. I also would recommend using coconut milk instead of oat milk. It just has an aftertaste whereas coconut not so much. The best thing and the shocker for me and my non vegan friend, was the Carolina Hot dog. It left me screaming and then speechless. My friend even did a happy dance lol. We are contemplating taking another drive tonight before they close b/c I shared it with her as she was too nervous to get it, we want more lol. We both love hotdogs and I can't say that I've ever had a really good vegan one. This was it!!! And honestly can't tell it was vegan from the texture, to the chili, the special sauces, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! And the Philly cheesesteak came a very close second runner up. The bread stood up to the sauces. And they are saucey but I don't mind it at all. Sautéed peppers, onions, the protein...this was just good clean food and not too much processed. As a vegan chef (Mama Nicca's Homemade Things) and someone who loves to be creative in this vegan world of cooking, this truly was OUTSTANDING. I will probably return every time I'm in Charlotte. I'm in PA and I wish we could have this on the coast. In this voice of my sister Tabitha Brown, VERY GOOD!!! read more

This was my second time having Mike's! The reason I came back was because I had it the first time before a Jhene Aiko concert in Greensboro, NC! I was happy to return & of course I got the same thing I had the first time! I enjoy trying new things however I wanted that bratwurst again. Mmm ;) .. The cashier helped me figure out which lemonade to get! The mango lemonade was top tier! The location was in a shopping area with inside and outside seating. The service was quick and friendly. 10/10 would recommend. read more

The food was very delicious! The inside is super cute with old-time games. The only thing I would change is LESS SAUCE please. Every single item has sauce overload. Either order no sauce, sauce on the side or light sauce at best. We loved the Cheeseburger quesadilla, Carolina burger, Philly cheesesteak and chocolate chip cookies. The chili cheese hot dog was okay and we didn't carry for the pizza. read more

I decided to try this place via Uber Eats. Everything was well packaged and arrived warm! I got the El classico burger. I appreciated the char on the burger, it left more of an authentic real meat impression. My gripe was this was a MESSY burger when eating. Everything was sliding everywhere juices running down the arm. I'm happy we were given napkins. But the eating experience wasn't anything to write home about. Though I understand some people like that type of eating experience, not for me. I ordered both the fries and the sweet potato tots. My husband and I devoured the sweet potato tots. Loved them, well seasoned and great texture. The fries were okay, classic crinkle cut. We are open to trying this place again, maybe in person next time. read more

First time trying Mike Vegan grill. My brother orders from there often. I had a taste for a vegan burger and didn't feel like cooking it so I decided to see what I could have delivered on DoorDash. The food still arrived warmed, and I appreciated the detail in the packaging. I got the classic burger with special sauce and a side of fries. Burger with seasoned OK, I did like the special Sauce. Fries were just basic crinkle cut. I would be open to trying something else on the menu next time or eating at the restaurant Fresh. read more

Mike’s Vegan Grill - Chorizo Crunch Wrap - Vegan Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I found my favorite place to eat in North Carolina, and Mike's Vegan Grill is it! I have enjoyed vegan food before, not enjoyed some before also. I am always willing to try places like this and see how the food has changed, improved and or what's new things are available. I saw they had "shrimp" on the menu and thought, this is what I will go with even though the pepperoni pizza looks good. I ordered the shrimp quesadilla and took a seat. My good arrived and I noticed it smelled great, was more of a soft quesadilla and not a firm crispy one, so I grabbed a fork and knife. Digging in, I was really impressed with the "shrimp" appearance and texture, looked like the actual shrimp I had for dinner the day before. Then the joy really started - eating has started. HOLY SH...... this was good. LOVED the food, the taste was incredible and far beyond what I expected. Looking forward to going back to eat here again and work my way through the menu. read more

I pulled up to the shopping center and had a little bit of trouble seeing the restaurant, as is down the walkway. But once you walk towards the restaurant, you'll see the sign in a friendly worker greeted me as I walked into the restaurant. I explained to the cashier that I was not vegetarian and she recommended the chicken Philly and fries, so that is what I ordered. After about 10 minutes, my food arrived piping hot, and it was delicious. I would say this is probably the best chicken Philly I've had in a while, and who would think that it wasn't even made with real chicken. The next time I'm on the side of town, I'll definitely come back to Mike's vegan grill. read more

1/19 We were looking for something vegan last weekend and decided to try Mike's. There were so many items we wanted to try from pizza, burgers, cheesesteaks, milkshakes and more. But we only got to try the fiesta fries and chili cheese fries. We weren't disappointed with either. I really liked the decor vibe and the music selection. We were able to place our order at the counter and it was delivered to our table. There was a good selection on types of sitting areas. The cashier was friendly and gave great suggestions. Our order was ready pretty quickly. The food was very flavorful. I can't wait to go back again and try some of their other options. Whether you're vegan or not I would recommend you to try this place. read more

I was meeting my friend at another place and I saw the sign for Mike's and we quickly changed our minds. I visited the food truck in Greensboro. I was so excited to "stumble" across this location in another city. I definitely wanted to try their brick and mortar. It is so nice on the inside. It is very vibrant! The music was upbeat. I absolutely love the decor. The staff was very friendly. My friend order the tuna sandwich and I ordered a bratwurst. She said her sandwich was really good. My bratwurst was banging! I'm not vegan, but I would become one if I could eat their food every day. The slaw and peppers were perfect with the sauce. The word to best describe this business is consistent. I've never had a problem with their food. It is delicious and is always presented well. Can't wait to go back. read more

Really great portions and actually taste flavorful. I definitely recommend! It's a little bit higher price but it's worth it for the taste.

Mike's is a really nice place for someone who may be transitioning or testing veganism. But for me, a more conscious vegan who avoids soy, this was not it. I had the crunchwrap, "chicken wings," sweet potato tots and ice cream. The best thing was the sweet potato tots which says a LOT. The Crunchwrap was greasy, barely held flavor and was not like a Crunchwrap from Taco Bell as it was missing that cheesy goodness and pico de gallo/lettuce/etc. The ice cream was pretty good too, they gave a big portion for $7 (it lasted me a whole week). I also want to acknowledge the customer service. The menu is PACKED so it took me a few minutes to decide on what I wanted. The rep answered every question I had in an honest and patient manner. Again, all love towards this place but as someone who strives to eat healthy, I wouldn't place it at the top of my list. I hope my feedback can be taken into positive consideration read more

There were soooooooo many options to choose from! Everything looked so tasty. I went with the chickn sandwich and loaded fries with a mango lemonade. The highlight was definitely the lemonade although everything was tasty. The fries could've had a little more seasoning but they got devoured nonetheless. The service was great. They were very helpful and honest about the options. And the decor is so cute. Great vibe read more

After our gym workout the hubby and I were hungry. He asked if I wanted to try Mike Vegan Grill. I obliged, so off we went. The restaurant is in a shopping center. There is a walkway you will have to go through before you will see the restaurant on the left side. We entered a semi spacious restaurant, although the entrance is cramped since the register is directly in front of the entrance door. We waited to order our food, but the wait was not that long. My hubby opted for the El Classico burger with seasoned fries, watermelon lemonade and a biscoff cookie milkshake. I ordered the Philly Cheesesteak; however, I wanted the gluten-free bun. The restaurant did not have gluten-free buns for the philly cheesesteak so they just made me a burger and put the cheese and veggies on the burger. We received the milkshakes first which I thought was strange. I would have preferred for the milkshakes to come last. Finally, we received our food after a 15 wait. I started on the fries. The fries were not bad. The vegan cheese was pretty tasty. Next, I tried the burger. I took the top bun off because it was too much. I would prefer some of the bread be scooped out. The burger was also good. It tasted like a real beef burger. Finally, I tried the milkshake. It was absolutely delicious. My hubby didn't like the milkshake because he is used to milkshakes made with cows milk, so I drank/ate his too. Customer service was excellent. We were checked on multiple times, and all of the staff were friendly. Although pretty pricey for what you get (we paid $71 plus tip), I would definitely recommend Mike Vegan Grill to those looking for a decent vegan restaurant. Be warned, you are going to pay a lot to eat this food. My Ratings: Philly Cheesesteak burger (on gluten-free bun) - 4/5 Vegan Cheese fries - 3.5/5 Biscoff Vegan Milkshake- 5/5 Customer Service - 5/5 Hubby's Rating: El Classico Vegan Burger - 5/5 Seasoned Fries - 4/5 Milkshake 2/5 (He said it didn't taste like a milkshake) Customer Service - 5/5 Overall rating between the two of us - 4.2/5 We will definitely go back and try some of the other options. read more

Upon walking into the Mike's Grill I was greeted with a warm smile and a warm welcome. I was asked if this was my first experience. I ordered the Carolina burger combo with fries and a bottled water. My first bite into the meal was complete with a delicious and savory package that also complements the atmosphere inside the restaurant. I totally enjoyed this meal and I am recommending that you experience it yourself. read more

Went to Mike's with my dad for some vegan food... he said that if he could eat here everyday he would be vegan. If that isn't a great review I don't know what is. We got the Carolina Burger and Philly Cheesesteak with fries. Both were flavorful, hearty, and delicious. I also got a strawberry lemonade which was fantastic and very refreshing. The vibes were great inside, fun decorations and a chill vibe. Highly recommend for vegans and non-vegans alike!! read more

What a great vegan spot! We were greeted as soon as we walked in and the employees were so helpful and kind. I love decor inside! This place is causal. They have many different tables and booths. I also loved the music they played and the shows they had on the TV's. There were so many items on the list that I wanted to try! I decided to try the taco steak salad and it was so delicious! I also got the Oreo milkshake and that was also delicious! Everyone needs to come and try this place! read more

I have frequented this place for years when it was a food truck. My go to place to get vegan food. This place is cute. It's in a suite among other stores/restaurants. The service was fast. The food was good. I usually stick with the hot dogs. My fiance who is NOT vegan enjoys the burgers. It is very very pricey though. 3 hot dogs, a burger and 2 orders of fries was almost $50!! That's a lot for fast food but we all know we pay more for vegan/plant based so it is what it is. I don't eat here too often because of the price but it will always be my go ton place for some vegan "junk food" read more

I'm not vegan but I can find enjoyment in vegan food. Mike's Vegan grilled was delish. The staff were beyond friendly. The vibe was refreshing and fun. The shrimp so good I had to look up what is vegan shrimp. A great place to visit read more

I would follow their food truck when I lived in High Point. When I moved to Charlotte in 2021-2022, Mike's had not yet established a permanent location in Charlotte, so I would drive to meet the truck on the day they came to Charlotte. Service was easy and fast. In fact, the young man was very proud my order was simple and easy. My food came out quickly. I was in and out within 10 minutes. The location is good. read more

Excited about having a physical storefront for Mike's Vegan Grill. Went with my friend on Sunday. It wasn't packed which was a good thing. The set up is really nice (decor). The selection of food options is amazing. I wasn't sure what I wanted but got the Colombiana and my friend got the cheesesteak. They both were 10/10, and let's not forget the lemonade. I got the peach lemonade and she got the blueberry lemonade. I need to go back bc there are others I wanted to try. The lemonades aren't sweet but just right. The food was flavorful. Let rewind to the sweet potato tots. Literally smashed all of my food and that's rare. I was craving a burger on Sunday and glad I went. I'll def be visiting again. Let's not forget the staff who were very pleasant, smiling, and very helpful with helping us select what we wanted. If you have gone to support, please make your way there!! read more

This is a hip vegan joint located near the university. There is plenty of parking in the a shared parking area. Went on a weekday afternoon, with my food came out relatively quick. They appear to have a line the entire time I was there. They had one register open. I highly suggested, get another due to demand if possible. The staff checked on us several times which was great. We were able to even meet the owner. The food is a bit pricey for a vegan burger with fries and a beverage are spending $25ish dollars. The food was good. highly recommend and I will return. read more

Late post! Tuesday my friend and I went to Mike Vegan Grill! Now let me say this no I'm not vegan but I do enjoy the food. I got the Hola Amigo burger and the chili cheese fries with a peach lemonade. This burger was very good and it has a little heat with jalapeño peppers and nacho cheese. For me the plant based burger tastes like real meat! The food was good, some of my fries had a little too much seasoning. Overall I will definitely be back. I didn't get the guys name who took our order but, he was nice and was able to answer all questions. The atmosphere of the restaurant is fun and laidback. I loved the art work, from the neon lights to the paintings and some of the artwork shows how Mike started out as a food truck. The menu is vast and they have desserts as well. If you never tried vegan you should definitely go and check them out. read more

I love eating great food because I am a true blue foodie! I am a new pescatarian and decided to try Mike's. Friday I ordered online for lunch. I had cheesesteak, sweet potato tots, and Biscoff cheesecake $27. My husband and I went today and sat down inside two burgers, one order of sweet potato tots, Biscoff milkshake, fountain soda and tip $51. When we were leaving I ordered another Biscoff cheesecake, chocolate chip cookie and lemon raspberry bar $16. The milkshakes and desserts great but small. Let me say the staff was accommodating and wanted to make sure we were good which is refreshing these days. The food was very good but for the cost the portions could be bigger. My husband said he would be eating something else when got home because he was still hungry I recommend but for smaller appetites. read more

I added this business to Yelp on 1/24. I really enjoyed the soft opening experience better than the grand opening. Mike personally opened the door upon entrance, he greeted us with a smile and inside we received great customer service. I ordered the fiesta fries and a hotdog. My friend got a vegan burger and fries. The good is 10/10. The vibe is good, music is great, nice Aesthetics. Definitely a good look for anyone not just vegans. Great job! Not the grand opening took me 2hrs to get food! I hope that never ever happens again. read more

They delivered! Always good when vegan food doesn't give you that "vegan taste". The "meat" taste like meat and the "cheese" taste like cheese. The atmosphere was a vibe. They made it a super fun place to dine in! Everyone was super friendly and accommodating as well! Food! We got the Philly cheesesteak, cheeseburger quesadilla and fiesta fries for $42. The Philly was the star of the show! Hands down a must get when you stop in. The veggies were still crisp and not soggy. The secret sauce.... Imma need the secret because it was top tier. The cheeseburger quesadilla was good! It surprisingly had a couple fries in it lol. Only tweak with that would be to make it a bit bigger. Didn't seem like there was that much in it. Last but not least were the fiesta fries. The seasoning on the fries was great. I don't know if it was just me but the chili on them tasted like it had cinnamon or something like that in it and I wasn't a fan of that. Nonetheless, no crumbs were left. We didn't get any desserts but 100% will be trying a milkshake and that biscoff cookie on my next visit! Congrats on a great spot!! read more

Always great food. The young man at the register is very pleasant. I live in another state but go here whenever I am in the area.

Mike's is normally a bit far for us, but we were going to a game at UNCC and give them a visit. We are very glad we did. We both had the Carolina Burger, it was very good, I have not had a burger with chili and slaw in more than 8 years. It was cooked perfectly and the chili was very good. I had regular fries, they have a little spice on them, very good. My wife had the chili cheese fries, she really enjoyed them with the chili being so good. They have a large menu with a lot other fast food type vegan food. I saw some good looking vegan deserts too! We will go back for sure. read more

I have been a vegetarian for a year and have been wanting to try Mikes Vegan Grill-they did not disappoint my expectations today. The food is great! It's nice to have a place where I can come and be able to eat anything on the menu. Awesome place! Try it today. read more

I tried the Philly cheesesteak and the Carolina burger, and they were both excellent the service is wonderful.

If you're on a diet and you're looking for healthy alternatives to some of your fav foods...this is not the place. If you're looking for delicious vegan food that will leave you ready for a nap, this is your place. Food is always hot and fresh and you'll need several napkins! Mike's never disappoints. read more

I'm glad to finally see a storefront location here in Charlotte for Mike's Vegan Grill. The time, attention, & dedication that was put into making this location an "it"spot shows. From the "Mike's Vegan Grill" sign when you first walk in, to the greenery decor throughout the location, to the Instagram-able life-size burger in the seating area, there is a lot of representation of the name and history of the truck. Food tried: (10/10) Shrimp Quesadilla (10/10) Biscoff Cheesecake (9/10) Po-Bo Sandwich: The shrimp on this will have you questioning if it's vegan. That plus the special sauce is a hit. (8/10) Oreo milkshake: This a solid milkshake. Personally it tasted like a sweet cream base versus a vanilla base making it too sweet for me. Still a great shake overall and I would be willing to have it again. The staff can be helpful in choosing your menu item if you're struggling with a choice. As a non-vegan, this is definitely about to be my go to spot in the university area. read more

This place is IT! It's everything and more. There were so many options to choose from. The ambiance was great, friendly service and it's made fresh to order, so it took about 10 minutes to get our food. I am vegan, but my boyfriend is not and he said it was hard to spot the difference between the plant based options and the real meat he eats on a day to day. The food was full of flavor, hot, and prepared so nicely. Our food looked amazing. There's great music playing in there and there is also slot machines (which was cool, but I didn't try them). I would highly recommend visiting Mike's, whether you're a vegan or not! read more
