Vegan versions of traditional Indian dishes

Even though the main menu lists some vegan items you should ask for the specific vegan menu. It has most of the traditional North Indian dishes that you normally have to pass on if you want vegan

Pros: Large vegan menu, Kofta croquettes and sauce are yummy, Lots of friendly staff

Vegan Naan Y'all

Plentiful options, including a dedicated vegan menu (check the website if the physical one doesn't have it). They even have the ever-elusive naan bread FTW (I usually just find roti at central-Asian joints).

I got the garlic naan, Goan Vegetable Curry and 2-pc samosa. All ran me about $40 - which may border on the lush-side for a weeknight takeout venture. But all in all, considering the fresh and flavorful fare, and probable leftovers, this is a great option for when you want to treat yourself, even if it's for no reason.

Fantastic Find - Full Page Vegan Menu

We were so excited to discover this spacious (and kinda upscale) restaurant which has a full page vegan menu!

Staff was quite friendly, and I had a starter, naan and entree....very tasty, perfectly cooked, needed no additional condiments -- it was an excellent first experience at Azafran, and we will be back SOON.

Pros: Nice environment, TASTY food!, They care about vegans/vegetarians

Cons: Wanted MORE dessert selections

Vegan Menu

Some things were ok. Too much going on with the flavors, like they're trying to be too fancy. Sometimes you just want traditional dishes; if so, this may not be your place.

SAMOSAS - called Rajwadi samosas, this is their twist on traditional samosas. They were nutty, so I wasn't the biggest fan, but the flavor was good. I just couldn't pass that nutty texture.

GOBHI MANCHURIAN - I didn't like them at all and ended up throwing them away. They didn't have the crisp breading that I like and the flavor was extremely tomatoey.

BHINDI AMCHOOR - I love bhindi masala, but this was different. It was tasty but there was too much going on. Not worth the $15 price tag.

GARLIC NAAN - they have vegan garlic naan upon request and it was really good.

CARROT PUDDING - a vegan dessert offering. I didn't like it. It wasn't sweet or appealing at all to me.

Unfortunately, there was nothing here that would cause me to return for any reason. I am, however, pleased that they offer a vegan menu, which is worth the extra star.

I love this place!!!

I love coming here with my family because I have a whole vegan menu and they also have options. The food is amazing and delicious! I love the vegan garlic naan and I usually get the veggie korma which is yummy! I 100% recommended this place to everyone! My mom, who’s not a vegan, eats vegan here so it’s legit!

Pros: Delicious , Vegan Menu

All vegan menu at this delicious Indian restaurant!!

Absolutely LOVED Azitra!!
Its worth the drive (we live 1 hr away) for takeout now w Covid.
We eat Indian food very often and this may have been the best Indian food we've ever had!!!!!!
LOVE that they offer an all vegan menu (have non vegan as well).

We ordered everything medium and all was perfect!!!
All these dishes were 5*!!
Appetizer - cauliflower manchuria
Tofu Portabella Kadhai
Vegetable masaala
Vegan naan

This wasn't 5*
Jackfruit Makhni-
The sauce was yummy but the dish tasted skimpy with only jackfruit in it.
All our other dishes were chock full of veggies and much prefer that so wouldnt order this dish again.

Can't wait to return and try more!!

The best Indian food!!!!

We had no idea there was a large vegan menu here. The food is so flavorful our party of five was blown away. Nice atmosphere, too. I would make recommendations but everything was great! Come ready to eat!

Feels like eating at a vegan restaurant!

The staff is very knowledgeable about the all vegan menu so you can ask them questions and get good answers. Once you let them know that you are eating off the vegan menu you never need to specify again. The food is amazing too!

Pros: All vegan menu, Amazing food

Best Indian cuisine I’ve ever had!

Would give their vegan menu 5 stars if I could! I had the veggie masala and it was AMAZING. Great portion size too. I also had their vegan garlic naan and, wow, I haven’t had naan in so long - it was so amazing to have! I’m so glad they have such an extensive vegan menu. Will absolutely go back and get more dishes!!

Pros: An entire vegan menu, lengthy!! , Delicious

On my come-here-often list

This restaurant has a very refined ambience and a large vegan menu. The description of the dishes in the menu was very enticing. I was with my wife and son (both not vegan (yet)), but all the appetizers, breads, and main meals we ordered were vegan. We all thought that everything we ordered was delicious. Some of the dishes, like the vegetable kofta, I've never seen at other places. The dishes all tasted different from each other as well. For me, this experience was on a par with going to a full vegan restaurant. We will definitely be back.

Pros: Delicious food, Large vegan menu, Refined ambience
