Chinatown & Center City East
Since 2011 Vedge has been setting the standard not only for vegan restaurants in Philly but restaurants in general. A meal here will crush any misconceptions you may have about the lack of flavor or finesse in vegan dishes. Flavors are punchy, presentation and inventiveness first-rate. Items not to miss include its rutabaga fondue and sumptuous sorbets.
Reserve well ahead or take your chances for a seat at the bar.
