I've been coming to St. Veg since they opened, and its my go-to for vegan food in the area. Even though the ownership has changed, the menu is still the same as before. I've tried a lot of things on the menu, and bottom line is I still think their Medley Loaf Combo Bowl is the best entree. I wish there was more loaf! It's so good and has a salty deep umami flavor which goes perfectly well with the shredded medley and other goodies in the bowl. However, there was a bit too much rice and carrot in my opinion this time. Still thought it was pretty good. I also ordered the Japanese Katsu Curry Bowl. I've gotten this one before too and thought it was really good, but today I found the curry a little bland, and again, the rice-to-protein ratio was way off (too much rice). Probably won't get this again and stick to the Medley Loaf Combo.
Short story first: oily, deep fried, no flavor, no authenticity, salty, expensive, oily. We were driving from Delaware to Virginia and went out of our way to give this a try. Over $45 later we wish we stayed on i95. We tried the Mumbai Burger with potato bun and tater tots, Japanese Katsu Curry Bowl, and threw in a baked apple pie for dessert. Now, to enjoy this place, you must love flavorless oily salty deep fried food. The katsu, burger patty, and tater tots were deep fried. The curry had no flavor. The rice wasn't Japanese style, it was more like Uncle Ben's. And the burger patty was spicy but flavorless. Hand-grated tater tots? Oily, salty, otherwise tasteless. We hoped the apple pie would save the meal. Nope. It tasted oily as well, so I was surprised to find out it was advertised as baked. I wasn't going to do a review until I learned we spent $45 on this atrocity of a meal. So the only reason we're posting is for other people who want to spend their money on fresh REAL food, not tasteless salty oily deep fried food. Thank you for offering a pretty vegan option for people who love flavorless deep fried food. Everyone else: stay away!
Sadly the quality of food has gone down at St. Veg over the years. I used to be an avid long-time customer and enjoy making the trek from McLean. Mom's Caramel Tofu was disappointing, the tofu was really stiff and hard and the rice was very clumpy. The distribution of the ingredients was a bit off and seemed to be thrown together with the tofu, spinach, and rice. The Cauliflower Bites were soggy and thrown in a bag. The No Guilt Burger was very bland. The staff member grumpily greeted me and I seemed to bother her with my take-out order. I paid $50 for 2 subpar dishes, an app, and lavender iced tea.
Thank goodness for St. Veg. No animal products. All vegan. Excellent dishes. Fast service. No fancy. Affordable.
The sandwich was good but the broth wasn't. The service was mediocre, nothing you wouldn't expect from a teenage worker, I didn't notice any gloves when handling our food so that threw me off a little bit. Along with the silence of the restaurant we heard faint tiktok audios or reels or whatever. Would i come here again, probably not but it was an experience for sure.
I've been here a handful of times and it really does not disappoint. The tater tots are quite simply the best I've ever had- my husband and both kids agree. They are perfectly cooked- crunchy on the outside, impeccably seasoned and just delish! I got the Flavor Bomb with extra chimichurri sauce- it is perfectly umami and the mushrooms just melt in your mouth- the velvety mushrooms paired with a perfect baguette crunch and the pillowy center of the bread is one I'll come back for. Sadly, there was no Pho broth for dipping, but I don't know that it needs it. I'll let you know the next time I get it. The rest of the fam got the Katsu Bowl and a meatball sub. They would go back again, but go for something different next time. My vegetarian son wants the Flavor Bomb, and my other kiddo was intrigued too. We'll be back soon.
My husband and I are always on the lookout for a good vegetarian place. This was our first time here and he got the mumbai burger and I got the caramelized tofu with pickled vegetables. Both were really good the Mumbai Burger had just the right amount of Indian spices and the tater tots it came with were nice and crispy. The burger has hot spices too, so be prepared for a little burn. Overall it's a nice "fast food" treat. The tofu was a lot of food I ended up taking half home. The pickled veges and tofu went really well together. I'd definitely get it again. We also got the hot lavender and the lavender lemonade. They were ok, I make this at home sometimes and I feel like mine is a little better so I don't think I'd get drinks again.
I have been visiting St Veg for more than a year and I am amazed with how the quality is so consistent. It had been awhile since I enjoyed the Flavor Bomb Pho Dip Sandwich, and after the first bite I was flooded with memories of my first visit to St Veg and why I love this business so much. The service at St Veg is great! You are always greeted with warmth and for fresh made food it comes out pretty fast! St Veg takes no short cuts. Their burger patties, baguettes, tater tots, and proteins are all made in-house. While on the surface this business has a fast causal vibe, the effort put in behind the scenes is tremendous and I am impressed with how efficiently this business runs. Over the years my most purchased meals are for sure the Flavor Bomb Sandwich, Vegloaf Bowl, and the Katsu Curry Bowl. On a "treat yo self" day I get the mushroom BBQ burger because it comes with tots which are too good to not eat all in one sitting. I cannot be trusted with that side by myself. When I go to St Veg in the afternoon I get their coffee because the cashew milk they make from scratch is the best nondairy milk of all time. It makes their coffee taste so heavenly. When I am staying off the caffeine their lavender tea is something I get every visit. It has so much flavor and is the perfect refreshment any time of the year. St Veg always has plenty of seating to accomadate a solo outing or even a large group. I host a vegan meetup monthly and we have packed 20 hungry vegans in without disturbing the normal flow of customers. I am so happy St Veg exists for the vegan community and any nonvegans wanting to try a vegan meal. The food is excellent, service is way above average, and this local business is truly a gem.
9.5.23 I am generally a carnivore and stay away from veggies, but my friend suggested this establishment so I gave it a try. I was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed my Shredded Medley banh mi which had tofu, jicama, sweet potato, bean threads, pickled daikon and carrots, cucumber slices, and cilantro. If I didn't know what was in it, I would have thought meat was in there, it was that good and deceptive. The fresh lemonade didn't taste fresh to me and I had to ask for sugar. Orders are placed at one of the two kiosks, however, staff is available for assistance, which I had to ask for. The restaurant was recognized as Best Vegan Restaurant by Bethesda Magazine in January 2022. Go check them out and see if you agree.
Love the service and the interesting menu. It was really busy, a lot of regulars and newcomers alike. Glad we checked it out. Less "vegan" vibes more Asian clean.

My partner and I came for lunch today. Each had a bowl. VegLoaf Bowl ($14.25) plus $1.50 for half brown rice/half greens. I enjoyed it. The veggie meat was very flavorful and moist. The carrot/cabbage and greens were fresh and tasty. I probably wouldn't get the rice again. It was fine, but served mostly to fill me up rather than add flavor. Japanese Katsu Curry Bowl ($15.00) plus $1.00 for greens and $0.50 for extra curry sauce. My partner enjoyed this dish, but thought the curry flavor could have been stronger. Also, they probably wouldn't get the extra sauce again. Overall, good bowls. We'll be back. One disappointment is that there is no way to "build your own bowl." I asked the server, and she said you can ask to substitute an item on one of their main bowls, but there's no "create your own" option. Since you order from a kiosk, it seems that could be straightforward, with the price adjusted based on what you add in, but I guess not here. That will limit the number of times I come here, because I prefer the option for variety. Ordering vis kiosk also doesn't allow you to order the sauce "on the side," which is another unnecessary (IMHO) limitation. read more
We are on a vegetarian diet and this place makes it easy. Food was tasty, lemonade did not seem freshly squeezed which was disappointing on a hot day. Dined in which was quiet as no background music but it was fine. Self ordering systems. read more

I ordered the St. Veg pho and crispy egg rolls through their website and for take out. The ordering process was easy and I was glad I could see photos of the food. The St. Veg Pho was really nicely packaged, with the veggies and noodles in a tray above the broth. When dumped into the broth, it looked very filling. There was a good ratio of veggies to noodle and broth! It was all very warm, hearty, and tasty! The crispy egg rolls were also great. The sauce paired really well with the egg rolls. It seemed like a soy sauce, but was not overpowering or salty. The one thing I do wish the egg rolls had more of is taro filling. I got these because I was excited about the taro, but I couldn't really taste it. Overall, I would order from St. Veg again. There are a few more popular items on their menu that I would like to try. read more

A niche restaurant that is right up my alley. So plant based with fresh ingredients. I had the Mumbai bowl and another bowl. The staff was friendly and willing to answer any questions I had. The business isn't very large so big crowds either with here. Because the food is prepared fresh so it'll take between 15-20 minutes depending on what you order. New Year's resolution to eat better? Check this place out! read more

Decided to try this place out. I love the way you are greeted and being asked if this is my 1st time here. If it is...They explain how to order on their tablet and food is prepared not premade, etc. I ordered coffee, tater tots and cauliflower bites. The coffee/food was good, but def need to change the to go packaging . I will def go back to try other items on their menu. read more
I've been here multiple times and I'm shocked I haven't left a 5 star review of st veg. It's an absolutely amazing all vegetarian menu restaurant that if you're vegetarian you need to check this place out, and if you're an omnivore, you still need to check this place out. The pho flavor bomb dip has a unique flavor that's definitely got the Vietnamese bbq flavor. The closest I can think of is bulgogi beef. The shredded medley bowl was fantastic with bits of carrot, rice, and other stuff mixed in and wonderful presentation with the slices of cucumber on top. The sunshine cups appetizers were great, very light and comes with a delicious dipping sauce. I may pass on them next time not because they were bad but because they were gone so fast! Tl;Dr the prices are worth the food. Very friendly, best vegetarian food in the area read more
Okay - since I am not a "vegan" nor a vegetarian, perhaps my review will be helpful to those who turn their nose up at the thought of meat alternatives. St. Veg is right next to the tanning salon I go to amongst many other stores such as My Eye Doctor, FedEx, and AT&T just to name a few. I've walked past about 100 times and each time I thought "Hmm, I should try that" but never did until recently. Upon entering, they have "Covid" arrangements meaning tables are blocking you from walking to the register. The lady who was working there (didn't catch her name) was very sweet and welcoming. There was only one other patron waiting for her meal to go. I didn't even get a chance to look at the menu in depth but mostly because had I, I probably would have opted for Chipotle hahaha. I decided on the "No Guilt Burger" which comes with a side of Tater Tots. I love me some tater tots lol. I also ordered a fresh iced lemonade. I was a little shocked when my total was $19.19. I'm not one who often checks prices (I should) or let's a price deter me from trying something new but for a "burger", tater tots and a drink that is pretty pricey in my opinion. I was a little annoyed that after I checked in I had an offer for a free beverage because I had already paid lol. I told myself it was fine because I'll come back another time to use it. I quickly read over what the "No Guilt Burger" was and I believe it was made from lentil beans. I'm not sure what I was expecting. The "burger" was tasty but the texture was interesting. I'm very much a texture person so normally I would not have liked this much but it was tolerable. The texture was very mushy. I looked at what it was made with after because I was genuinely confused. It makes sense after reading that it was made from beans. The outside of the burger was crispy but as soon as you bite in, mushy. It wasn't terrible though. The tater tots were good but a little salty for my liking. I don't know if it was the sea salt used or just overly salty. I'm not a huge salt person and in fact I usually ask for fries without salt. Mostly because I always end up with a stomach ache after. The lemonade was delicious. Wasn't too sour and wasn't too sweet. All in all, this place wasn't bad. I've always wanted to stop eating meat because I don't eat much of it anyways. Just chicken and very small amounts of red meat once in a blue moon. I'm not sure if I'd be brave enough to try something different on the menu but then again I was brave enough to try this lentil bean burger haha. I would say give it a try if you are in the area! Check in first so you can take advantage of the free drink. read more
This is one of the best vegan places in Montgomery County that offers great tasting meals with fantastic portions and pricing. Don't sleep on the tater tots, they are literal crack potatoes and the seasoning is perfection. My friend and I got the Medley Loaf Bowl and Vegloaf Banhmi which both contain soy. It was DELICIOUS and super filling. Like I'm not even vegan but I could turn vegan/lean heavily toward a vegan diet if I ate their food everyday. The storefront is a small but there is indoor seating and you order from two kiosks. The super nice guy who was there explained everything was fresh and was super friendly. There's plenty of parking since it's inside of the Fallsgrove Village Center. Overall, highly recommend!!! read more
Since moving to Rockville earlier this year, I've been to many places but St. Veg in particular holds a special place in my heart. Not only do they use fresh ingredients and have a wide variety of vegan eats on the menu, they also have a light and bright interior and very welcoming staff! I've tried many items, but I will always come back for the Mom's Caramel Tofu Bowl. The warm, caramel-y goodness of the braised tofu, and the bright pickled mustard greens combo is so satisfying and feels like a warm hug on the inside! Comfort food is an understatement and regardless of whether or not you're vegan, I definitely recommend you give St. Veg a try! Pro-tip: order and apple pie! You won't regret it. read more
I love this place! All the food is delicious and well-seasoned. Since the food is prepared while you're there, you have to wait for some time but the staff is always so kind and offers complimentary water. I couldn't recommend this restaurant enough! read more

This is the second time I've been here, but I thought I should give a review where it is deserved. I don't come to the East Coast often, so I had to get as much of the dishes as I could to eat. St. Veg will be one of my go to places when I am in the area. The mini sunshine cakes were amazing. You get a hint of the turmeric flavor in the batter and the mix of textures in each bite. The crunchy shell and the soft middle. The signature sauce that comes with the dish provides a salty tangy flavor that brings out the robust flavors of the cake. The crispy rolls, cauliflower, and tater tots are surprisingly very crispy. Although it was fried, there isn't a taste of oiliness to it. IT was perfect. The filling in the rolls were not too mushy, that would make me sick. I could taste the sweetness of the cabbage and carrots. I've had the cauliflowers and tater tots twice now and it is still as good as I remembered it. The tater tots were flavored perfectly where you can eat it by itself, but also great with the ketchup and the spicy chutney. The sweetness of the sauces alongside the saltiness of the tots provide a good balances of flavors. If I wasn't so full, I would've eaten more. The Flavor Bomb pho dip was one of my favorites. The slow roasted portabella mushrooms has a good texture to it. Along with the house BBQ sauce and the bean sprouts and onion, it was bursting with flavor. I don't normally like to dip my sandwiches, so I took a sip of the broth on the side. The broth was not overly flavorful which helps to balance out the bursting flavors. The St. Veg Pho broth had a slight sweetness to it and was not overly salty which I do appreciate. I enjoyed the variety of vegetables that came with the pho along with the tofu. I wish I would've ordered the veg puff, but I was so full. I will definitely order it next time. read more
If you are looking for something fresh, different and full of flavor, St. Veg is your spot! Definitely one of the best vegan places in the area. I am mostly impressed with how fresh the ingredients taste without comprising flavor. I started with the lavender tea, onto to the cauliflower bites and then both the katsu bowl and the medley bowl. Honestly, I couldn't get enough of their vegloaf. I highly recommend trying any of their bowls. I love how there is literally something for everyone there. From soups, subs and pasta you can get a taste of everything. I will definitely be back for the sweet treats as well. Additionally, this place has great service. Staff seems to be very attentive and service was quick! I stopped in for a dine- in experience, but I notice a lot of take out if you are more on the go! Entrees range from $10-17 and the portions are very generous. Definitely give this place a try if you haven't already! read more

One of my favorite spots that I constantly crave. I'm vegetarian and it can be difficult to find veg-only spots in the area. My favorites are the shredded medley banh mi and the pho dip sandwich. I also really love the tater tots and crispy cauliflower bites. The shredded medley banh mi has fried bits of shredded tofu, and it balances perfectly with the pickled carrots and daikon and refreshing cucumbers. It's a decent size for $12.50. The bread is also nice and soft (it can get a bit soggy so I definitely recommend eating it right away). The pho dip sandwich is also very flavorful. The side of pho is honestly the best pho I've had (I never order veg pho because it's usually so bland). I love that it's naturally sweetened with apples. I prefer to just eat the sandwich and drink the pho by itself but to each his/her own. The veg loaf medley bowl was really tasty but I wish it had more veg loaf. :) I also prefer their sandwiches over bowls since I find there's usually more rice than veggies and I end up having leftover rice. Next time I'll have to try the veg loaf banh mi. The cauliflower bites are crispy and warm, and not too heavy on the batter. It pairs well with the golden sauce which is creamy and tangy. I also highly recommend their Mumbai burger if you like super spicy food! I loved the flavor but am a wimp when it comes to spice. Finally, definitely try the apple pie puff. Flaky and not too sweet. :) The only thing "negative" I have to say is this place is closed on Sundays. read more
I got the shredded medley bowl which was good. It tasted like a deconstructed bánh mì which was nice. I needed a break from bread this week so I'm glad they had options. It was a clean small modern place and it was nice to see vegan versions of Vietnamese food. read more

Are desserts offered here?
Yes! We have fresh baked cookies that are made with organic coconut sugar. More desserts coming soon!
I live in Frederick County and am excited to learn about this new vegan place in my neighbor county. What is the parking situation at St. Veg?
You can find parking here but it does tend to be a busy lot especially at lunch. If you park towards the back and where Safeway is that part of this lot usually has more space
