Quick Summary:

  • Renowned as being the land of meat, Texas has a hard-earned reputation for producing some of the best steaks in the world – enough to send any vegetarian running for the hills.
  • However, Houston has a burgeoning vegetarian scene catering to those who prefer broccoli to beef, with a wealth of excellent eateries that will satisfy even the hardiest vegan.
  • From all-raw falafels to vegan baked goods, Houston has loads of innovative meat-free menu-fillers around town.
