Wonderful meal! - Edit
It’s my favorite restaurant in Philadelphia, especially for hosting business meals with non-vegan people. Food is amazing and the service was excellent. The Dan Dan noodles were the best I’ve ever had

World class - Edit
I have to go to Vedge every time I come to Philadelphia. It’s a can’t miss. Everything they serve is unique, fresh, and largely unprocessed. The menu is rotated often, so it never gets old eating at this restaurant.

Very Good - Edit
I debated between four and five stars. I went with four because I expect amazing from fine dining.
Read moreI have been here before and Fancy Radish in DC and had a more amazing experience.
One dish was gross (beets) but I could look past that dish.
It was the overall experience of water glasses not being filled promptly. Not changing out plates between a course (one they did), and just overall attentiveness.
At a vegan comfort food place this service would have been fine

Always a great spot - Edit
Visited vedge in DC earlier this year and loved it. So when we planned a trip to Philly, knew we had to go!
Read moreWe had 6 dishes to share between the two of us.
The Beet one was horrid. Nothing was good about it. Fortunately everything improved from there.
The guachang tofu was the next least favourite, it just didn't have any depth of flavour and was too charred.
The Florentino was very good.
Rutabaga fondue is always amazing. So so good.
The best dish by far was the farrow and mushroom maitake. Truly amazing.
For dessert I was torn between the toffee pudding because it came with cardamom ice cream, or the peanut butter cup. I told our server to surprise me with one of them.
She brought us the peanut butter cup with a side of cardamom ice cream and they were both out of this world amazing!

Fantastic - Edit
Traveled to a conference and stopped by this wonderful place for dinner. COLIN was our waiter and he was great he answered all questions we asked before we ordered., and often checked in to make sure that we our dining experience was enjoyable.Everything about this experience was superb. I was seated quickly. The food presentation was top-notch, and it just gave great vibes. I would definitely encourage anyone who is in Philadelphia to check out this spot.

Fine dining at its best - Edit
You can tell that they know what they're doing. The food is made to perfection, full of flavor and creativity. Every bite got a "wow" out of us. The cocktails were amazing as well. Dishes are small, as expected from this kind of place. Expensive, but very recommended.

Outstanding - Edit
Simply spectacular combination of flavors, textures, and cuisines. The arepa pancake with black garlic and heirloom tomatoes was a notable standout, but every single plate we tried was truly delicious. Even my husband (who is non-veg) was blown away by the quality of the food - especially the vegan desserts.

Exceptional by any standard - Edit
The cuisine, service and space are exceptional. The flavors are remarkable and literally require a pause and moment to take them all in. The desserts, too, are divine. We’ve been to Vedge several times and have brought family and friends many of those times. Everyone is as impressed as we always are. Will be back again and again.

Cute, old-world ambiance and creative dishes make this a special gem!
Read moreThey have their own cookbook, and the same restauranteur/ses have another cookbook from their former restaurant V-Street.
Pros: Pistachio Budino with caramel, Rutabaga Fondu (not cheesy, its own thing), Ambiance

Dessert was lovely! - Edit
Only went for dessert but the Pistachio Budino was divine and the Fennel Upside Down cake w/ Earl Grey ice cream was also a good choice! We sat at the bar and the atmosphere was great. Would definitely go back to try their dinner options.

Maybe the best vegan restaurant I've ever been to - Edit
Wow. Every dish we got was a nice little surprise to see, and then to taste. Very creative and delicious! We wanted to try everything, but a few dishes stood out like the fondue and mushrooms, and our waiter made some excellent recommendations for other dishes that went well with what we ordered (and were fresh and new to the menu). Looks like they have a cookbook you can order online which I need! The cocktails and mocktails were great too. Definitely a good spot for a special occasion!
Read morePros: Very creative dishes, Fun venue
Cons: More expensive than most vegan places I've been to

We have been to Vedge twice, most recently in December 2022. The food is thoughtfully prepared, creative and delicious!! Beautiful atmosphere and great service. The bar area is worth visiting as well before or after a meal.

Phenomenal - Edit
We appreciated that Vedge offered a limited menu because it made choosing a little easier. All dishes are small-medium plates, so definitely plan on at least two dishes per person if you’re hungry. We tried the carrot rillettes, portobello carpuccio, Dan Dan noodles, fregola, and the fennel upside down cake. All were well seasoned and unforgettably delicious except for the fregola, which was underseasoned and bland.
Read moreService was extremely attentive and friendly, and the cocktails were excellent! Definitely plan on making a reservation beforehand.
Pros: Concise menu , Excellent cocktails , Attentive service

A renewed appreciation of Vegetables - Edit
Vedge provides a true culinary artistry to every-day produce. The changing menu will certainly keep me coming back for more. Yes , they do make "smaller" portioned entrees than the average restaurant. Take their advice and order/share a few different plates.

Earned it's reputation - Edit
Vedge is one of the most elegant vegan restaurants out there. In my opinion it not only competes with fine dining in NYC, but beats it. The menu is always fresh and unique with incredible cocktails. There is a reason it is more than locally recognized!
