Published by .

What exactly makes a restaurant romantic? For us, it’s a combination of atmosphere, elegance, and—of course—really delicious food. If you’re looking for a spot that will impress your sweetheart, you’ve come to the right place, because some of the most romantic restaurants in the world also happen to be some of the best vegan restaurants in the world! So next time you’re booking a reservation for Valentine’s Day, your anniversary, or just a fancy date night, check out one of these romantic vegan restaurants:

Avant Garden (New York, New York)

BAIA (San Francisco, California)

Bloom Plant Based Kitchen (Chicago, Illinois)

Crossroads Kitchen (Calabasas and Los Angeles, California, and Las Vegas, Nevada)

Donna Jean (San Diego and Sherman Oaks, California)

Did you know that there’s a scientific reason that vegan fare is the recipe for romance? The cholesterol and fat in animal-derived foods slow the flow of blood to all vital organs—not just the heart. Healthy vegan foods will leave you full of energy and maybe even feeling a little frisky. Plus, leaving meat, eggs, and dairy off your plate means that you won’t be breaking animals’ hearts.
