Yum - Edit
Great restaurant for all dietary preferences but especially vegan! The key lime pie was great and I live that that had different salad dressing to choose from.

Overpriced - Edit
It's nice to have a restaurant where almost anyone can find something, be they carnivore or vegan.
Read moreIt's not nice to pay about $12 for a sandwich that is rated as a top 5 sandwich in the US by PETA when you can read the ingredients and make it yourself at home and it comes out phenomenally better. To test this, I recreated their Tempeh Tantrum, Philly Fakesteak and Viet-Nom-Nom for friends who have had them at Remedy. They agreed - overpriced and not really well prepared. They need to get their kitchen on-point if they want to sell a seat that costs about $20 with food and drink.
But... this place is good for larger groups with various dietary needs. Do call ahead to find out if everything on the menu is available. We've gone, they took our drink orders, dropped them off then told us that they were out of most of the menu. Why not tell us before we ordered mixed drinks and beers? Hmm. Shame on them.
Next time we went I asked what was unavailable. We walked out to find a restaurant where we all could eat - which defeated the purpose of Remedy's goal: feed everyone!
Pros: Something for everyone, Casual
Cons: Poor quality, High prices, Many items not available all the time

Great diner food! - Edit
I highly recommend this diner! There is so much on the menu it was hard to decide on what to order. Buffalo chicken wings are one of the foods I miss most since going vegan and their vegan wings did not disappoint. The texture was very close to real meat. Prices did seem a little high for the amount of food you get. The "meal" of the wings just included half a plate of fries.

WOW - worth 5 stars - Edit
So many vegan options! Everything we ordered was simply some of the best vegan fare I’ve ever had. HIGHLY RECOMMEND: lord of the fries, philly fakesteak (made vegan), fried vegan chicken, sopapilla cheesecake. We placed an order and took it back to our hotel, however staff was very friendly and inside had a hip and low key vibe with tasteful decor.

My favorite spot in Raleigh - Edit
I was visiting Raleigh from Miami for a couple weeks, and this was a regular spot for me!!
Read moreThe atmosphere is so welcoming and relaxing, even though it was busy a lot of the nights I went.
Their menu is clearly marked for what is available veganized (so many options!)
Their fried broccoli is so amazing! And the vegan buffalo wings are a must! They have an "RX Special" every weekday that varies. On the weekend they serve brunch. The portions are huuuuge.
I dream about this place from Miami now!
Pros: Lots of vegan options, food prepared quickly, excellent service and food!!
Cons: Limited seating, parking can be a headache

great place to go with vegan and carnivore friends - Edit
We have been to Remedy several times, both for brunch and dinner. Their service is hit or miss, sometimes it’s great and others not so much. My meat eater friends seem to like their food, and I like my vegan options. The “chicken” wings are to die for, and all the desserts are out of this world as well. Sometimes the entrees aren’t super impressive, you just have to try and see which ones you like. Overall a good spot for vegan food!

Great Vegan Options - Edit
Edit (it's July 2017): The food is great vegan junk food style and their menu is much more limited than the review I originally wrote in 2012 (bring back the vegan nachos please!). It's nothing incredibly fancy, but no junk food really is. They're also more expensive than 2012 and where this really hits is the size:cost ratio of the desserts. I have traveled to the Bay Area, Portland OR, ATX, DC, Amsterdam NL, and Philly for vegan food and Remedy Diner charges very high prices for their vegan desserts despite how small they are. But I guess they can (for now) until there is other competition.
Read moreOriginal Review: Cute place! I've only been once but I was very happy and they are accomodating to a vegan diet. I had the reuben and my bf had the buffalo chickn sandwich. Both rocked. The vegan eats are more "American" food options. We got to enjoy some local vegan beer too! Service was good and we got to sit outside! Prices were so-so for the amount of food we got but just the fact that it options that we could eat made it better. The only thing I am sad about is that I didn't try their vegan dessert options! Next time! :)

simple and good - Edit
Sunday brunch was packed out the door. The hubs and I each got vegan BLTs with potatoes and shared a deep-fried broccoli. The broccoli and plant-based ranch is my fave! The BLT and potatoes with some Siracha was simple and tasty. The service was good too. We will be back.

My go-to in Raleigh! - Edit
I've been frequenting this place for years. It's always a staple when I visit Raleigh. The menu offers accommodations for all dietary needs, so you can bring everyone here! The food is hearty and hits the spot for something good for your soul. The vegan BBQ sandwich and Tempeh Tantrum are my favorites. ALL of the desserts are to die for (peanut butter chocolate pie and coconut cream pie are my favorites!!).
Read moreService can be extremely slow, especially when you show up during peak hours, so it's best to visit when it's not the peak of lunchtime or dinner. Most of the servers seem to have a nonchalant vibe and so it may seem like you're ignored or forgotten sometimes. But the food makes up for it for sure!
Pros: Yummy food, Cool vibe, Accomadating for all
Cons: Slow service, Wait times

Vegans need more places like this! - Edit
The place can't hold more than a handful of people but is very cute. The waitress tried her hardest to be pleasant, although she seemed secretly annoyed with coworkers. We were a bit peaved to be told after we ordered that only a certain part of the menu was available, and had to go with something else we didn't want as much. The biscuits and white gravy were dry, but edible. What blew us away was the fried brocolli and vegan buffalo wings. We're not a fan of mock meats, so were blown away to happily down all of them! The chocolate PB pie was also amazing, but again, would love to have been told they were out of another pie beforehand, as that's the one we planned on getting. On a day when they're serving their full menu, it's probably a great place for vegans. Wish they had something like this in NJ.

Not worth it - Edit
The food is bad. The service was bad as well.
Read moreI ate here with my husband. We had the veggie chicken wings, which were fairly good, though I had better. The ranch dressing was delicious though. Then we got our main enteries - the Vietnamese sub and the BBQ sub. Both sub were barely edible and made me wish we ate somewhere else. The Vietnamese sub was basically tofu covered is sriracha that was barely cooked, and then pickled veggies that tasted like a straight up shot of vinegar. The tofu was soft, not the fried crispy tofu you'll expect in such a sandwich, and had a weird taste like it was left out for a little too long. The BBQ sub was just really bland and dry and had a weird after-taste. The food was so bad we left the diner still hungry, because hunger was better than succumbing to more gross flavors.
I am usually not someone who writes negative reviews about service, but the quality of service here made both of my husband upset. The whole meal took about two hours, because service was that bad. It took us 15 minutes just to get the attention of the hostess and get a table, despite the two open tables waiting for diners. From the time we ordered to the time we got the appetizer, 45 minutes passed. The waiting time for the sandwiches was shorter, yet still ridiculous. We discussed getting up and leaving several times during the lunch. I am puzzled why the waiting time was that long for sandwiches and an appetizer. The waitress hardly ever checked up on us, and we didn't get an apology. It is one thing to get this bad of a service for excellent food, but to wait this long for food that is barely edible still makes me mad just thinking about it.

Good casual dining - Edit
Good food, but nothing over the top amazing. Had their tempeh sandwich with pesto mayo, avocado, and soy bacon -- wise nice to have a sandwich with so much romaine in it too.
Read moreFried broccoli was okay -- very oily, not fried like cauliflower sometimes is with breading. The vegan ranch was bomb though.

Best veg restaurant in Raleigh - Edit
This is my absolute favorite place to eat in Raleigh! Around here you're lucky to have more than one or two vegan options on a menu (usually asking to hold the cheese and mayo) so the Remedy Diner menu makes me feel like a kid in a candy store. My husband (non-veg) and I have to order the vegan wings every time. I love just about everything on the menu. The vegan reuben is my favorite, the ranch dressing is amazing and if I have room I get the coconut pie. My husband loves the vegan BBQ. It's nice being able to order vegan grilled cheeses or quesadillas for the kids too. I love, love, love this place!

Eh - Edit
Close to Marbles if you're going to Raleigh as a family. Food is okay; portions are small. If you are taking the family, beware that some of the "art" may not be appropriate for younger kids or more conservative families. The last two times I've been, there has been profanity written on the back of the restroom door. The staff is aware; they just don't care.

The pie is amazing - Edit
The food is mostly-vegan diner fare. I had the tempeh bacon sandwich and my husband had the banh mi sandwich. I highly recommend both! We also shared a salad as an appetizer and it was okay. Maybe I was expecting too much, but it was a bit boring--lettuce with sliced cucumber, tomato, and green pepper. We ordered the sopapilla (cinnamon) cheesecake and the coconut pie for dessert. We meant to share one and take one home for later...we ate both and ordered another coconut and a key lime to take with us. The pie at Remedy is seriously amazing, especially the coconut. Lots of coconut creaminess, with coconut flakes and a perfect crust. Yum! The waitress told us that the desserts are made by the owner's mother-in-law. My compliments to the MiL! She is a pie genius.

Best Diner in Raleigh - Edit
My husband and I went here weekly while we lived in Raleigh. The menu always stayed true to our favorites. I absolutely love the tempeh tantrum. I wish the fries were GF or the tempeh bacon. The service is pretty spotty, not always welcoming but a wonderful bite none the less.

Unhealthy vegan food? Yes please. - Edit
They mostly carry unhealthy vegan food options on their menu. Even their dessert menu is mostly vegan, including their chocolate cake. All of the vegan food I've ordered here in the past was pretty tasty. Even some of their appetizers, one being their vegan buffalo wings--which are a bit spicy, but really hit the spot. Another one of their yummy appetizers (this one you can veganize) would be their nacho plate, which was delicious--especially with the vegan daiya cheese melted over the nachos. The veggie burger here is also pretty delicious, as well as their french fries. They also have art for sale on the walls of the restaurant. Overall, if you're looking for a vegan-friendly place to eat which cooks vegan comfort food, then eat here.

Vegan-Friendly Downtown Restaurant - Edit
Great staff, delicious unique dishes. Knowledgeable about vegan food, not knowledgeable about vegan alcohol. Had no idea which wines and beers were vegan.
Read moreVegan versions of thousand island, ranch, mayo, etc. Vegan specials that vary. Clearly marked vegan sandwiches and entrees. Delicious desserts (most of them are vegan). Appetizers are awesome!
Cool, hip, downtown atmosphere. Kooky art on the walls. One of my favorite Raleigh restaurants, especially when my omni friends want to go out!
Pros: Clearly marked vegan options , Friendly staff , Awesome atmosphere
Cons: Can be pricey (at least for the broke college stud

My fav for sandwiches - Edit
My best friend will not let us pass through Raleigh without stopping here. For good reason, too. They have a diverse menu, with a vegetarian section and a separate vegan section. Anything on the vegetarian menu can be made vegan easily. One of their sandwiches, which is my bestie's and my favorite, is rated by PETA. The staff is lovely, as well. If you are there for dinner, there is an expanded menu that includes several larger dished. Many times, we have shared multiple things because there were so many options that sounded delicious. Their soups change, and most of the time they are vegan, as well! Keep a look out for their specials; they are incredible, too!

Diner-style eating for veg crowd - Edit
When I think of a diner, I think: greasy food, unhealthy items and late nights. This place delivers on those fronts, but in vegan format. Cool. Half the menu is veg, which is fabulous; half of the veg menu is vegan, which is super helpful.
Read moreWho doesn't like fried food at a diner? I love it. Enter fried broccoli with none other than sour cream (tofutti?) dipping sauce. YES. For vegan eating, that's a surefire way to be close to maximize unhealthy eating. It is SO good though - but don't let the broccoli sit for too long, then you'll see the oil and think: What did I just do?! Oh my, but the nachos, the sandwiches, the fries - you can just load up on all the unhealthy bad-for-you foods that you rarely eat, because, well, it's a diner, and you're eating, not replenishing nutritional vaults.
For beverages, classic beers, wines, coffee, juices, sodas for your selection are plentiful. Really, though, it's just window dressing for the main event of the food. Dessert is also available, vegan or otherwise, but not gluten free vegan. Still, who really cares, if you can eat gluten, to eat some now and then? It is good homemade style dessert like key lime pie - yum. Chocolate cake -classic.
A diner must have a diverse selection of appetizers, salads, entrees and dessert. Check check check check. Though really, a salad, at a diner? Nice that they have them, but give me the nachos, the fries, the deep fried broccoli and let's call it a day. Oh, and come back for brunch? I didn't get a chance, but it looks pretty impressive for a diner style meal!
My concerns that bring it down to 3 cows from 4 is that it's mostly sandwiches. Also, it didn't seem as clean as I would like it to be….. so, yeah… Good though for a diner!
Pros: Vegan friendly, Junk food happiness, Brunch
Cons: Diner-esque cleanliness

Definitely stop by - Edit
An omnivorous friend and I stopped by. Great menu items of all kinds, and a nice selection of draft beers as well. I had the Tempeh Tantrum and I quite agree with another reviewer in stating that, while I would enthusiastically eat it again, PETA calling it one of top 5 (or whatever it was) sandwiches in the country is a bit of a stretch. Would definitely go again if I am ever in Raleigh again.

Great Vegan Diner Food - Edit
I've gone to Remedy Diner a few times and I enjoy their rotating seasonal menus but also their staple sandwiches. My favorite is the reuben, maybe the tempeh tantrum, and the bbq- all tied heh. It's hard to pick just one.
Read moreThe majority of their vegan options are sandwiches- diner type food- but also have some heartier dishes after 5pm.
They have wonderful vegan desserts so make sure you save some room!
