“ Didn't expect such a good vegan restaurant in such a nondescript strip mall! Service was very friendly and welcoming. I had the server recommended Breakfast Burrito and loved it. It came cut in half (very helpful in eating it) with chips and crispy potatoes on the side. The burrito was vegan, and had cheesy, faux crispy bacon, sausage and egg combined into a flavorful, large portioned Breakfast. My spouse had the Breakfast Skillet and also loved it. Portions are large and came quickly. Next trip to Vegas will definitely include this restaurant again! ”
“ The Modern Vegan in Vegas is an absolute must-go! I’ve actually flown to Vegas just to eat there. The menu is huge, creative, and full of mouth-watering options — I’ve tried so many dishes that it’s impossible to pick a favorite. From hearty breakfasts to decadent desserts, everything is packed with flavor and beautifully presented. The portions are generous and the staff is always friendly. I absolutely love this place and can’t wait for my next trip back! ”
“ It's ridiculous but I figured, what the hell. Tastes like a burger wrapped in a funnel cake. The salad is really good. The dressing makes it. The sandwich is really good for a once in a while treat. I would say it could use some acid to balance it out. Hot sauce was a very good match. I was entertained ”
“ Very delicious food. Very hefty portions as well! I got the truffle mac and Louisiana fried chkn. No notes! Ahhhmazing. Come and try everything. They have items from brunch to lunch to dinner. Theres something for everyone guaranteed. ”
“ We came across The Modern Vegan (TMV) while looking for a place to eat breakfast before heading back home. The customer service was excellent, Yutlzi our waitress was very friendly and attentive, and the food was delicious! The portions are more than generous, we could have easily shared the French toast my boyfriend ordered. I had the Sunday Funday, two pancakes, vegan sausage, scrambled tofu, and breakfast potatoes. I also ordered the Jalapeño Poppers as an appetizer and they were soooo good! ”
