Graze through the bold, unapologetic vegan dishes peppered just minutes from Belle Isle, the easternmost hideaway in the Venetian Islands' string of islands.
Tucked between South Beach's dazzle and mainland Miami's hustle, with a private trove of luxury condos, villas, and single-family residences, a lush park, and the only hotel on the Venetian Islands, The Standard Spa, a contemporary icon in Miami Beach, Belle Isle, though small in size, is gigantic on access, thanks to the Venetian Causeway, a thoroughfare that connects it to everything you love about living in Magic City!
In fact, you're only a bridge away from a new plant-forward lifestyle by the beach, as South Beach puts its most famous vegan eats at your doorstep, offering everything from stylish sit-downs to smoothie bars that take veggies very seriously!
So, treat your palate to something greener, lighter, and guilt-free today as you explore our curated list of the best vegan-friendly eats a hop from home!
Here are the top five vegan restaurants near Belle Isle.
1) Pura Vida
1940 Alton Rd, Miami Beach, FL 33139
Clean eating will taste anything but boring, especially at Pura Vida, a coastal-chic café that turns plant-based dining into a lifestyle statement just 2 minutes from Belle Isle.
A neighborhood favorite offering vibrant bowls and health-forward bites that are a veggie-lover's version of a spa day on a plate, Pura Vida invites diners to a selection of nutrient-packed dishes, from stacked açaí creations and protein wraps to those picture-perfect salads you swore you'd try making at home!
And those IG-worthy vibes? Think boho breeze, blonde wood, and smoothies you order by color, perfect for when you're in the mood for a post-yoga bowl or just pretending to be that person who always orders the quinoa!
In fact, even non-vegans will find something that checks the aesthetic and the appetite boxes at Pura Vida — and if you don't, consult the friendly crew!
Bonus points — Pura Vida's coffee bar delivers the same energy with alt-milks, organic sweeteners, and a latte lineup that gives you options other than taking yours black!
At Pura Vida, wellness isn't a trend — it's the default setting.
2) AVO Miami
1834 Bay Rd, Miami Beach, FL 33139
Level up your meatless lunch break with a hearty meal at AVO Miami, a sleek, sunlit café tossing out protein bowls, matcha donuts, and all the clean-eating clout you can handle, just 2 minutes from Belle Isle.
A wellness hotspot that's heavy on flavor and light on labels, AVO's menu is built for vegans, vegetarians, and anyone who believes avocado deserves more screen time, whether they're craving a rainbow-bright smoothie, a stacked bagel sandwich, or one of AVO's famous Avo bowls, all promising bites that hit the sweet spot between healthy and indulgent.
In fact, even AVO's juices and shakes feel like they have a natural aesthetic filter!
And their selection of lattes and cold brews? It has enough non-dairy upgrades to make your alt-milk-loving heart happy.
Order something bold, grab a window seat, and remind yourself that wellness doesn't mean giving up flavor.
It only means knowing where to eat, and AVO Miami is a non-negotiable part of the list!
1828 Bay Rd, Miami Beach, FL 33139
Skip the drive-thru drama and get a quick and healthy boost at Carrot Express, a fast-casual legend with comfort food inspired by leafy greens, just 2 minutes from Belle Isle.
Proving that eating clean doesn't have to feel like punishment, Carrot Express spoils diners with a stacked menu of all-day breakfast, loaded bowls, hearty wraps, and ciabattas that don't skimp on satisfaction, with vegan swaps on nearly everything, from your açaí bowl to your toasted sandwich!
Yes, vegans, this colorful café is LEGIT, and it's taking the plant-based community by storm!
And don't get us started on their Carrot Cake — it's the perfect treat if you're into sweet but guiltless endings!
With food this good, you'll forget you're being "healthy," making Carrot Express a temptation you don't need to resist!
1670 James Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139
Craving something indulgent that doesn't mess with your conscience?
Slide over to Full Bloom Vegan, a cozy hideaway with a sought-after menu of 100% plant-powered plates just 7 minutes from Belle Isle.
As South Beach's first-ever vegan restaurant, Full Bloom has been plating guilt-free magic since 2015 — and with its fully vegan, non-GMO, Kosher-certified menu, even your most skeptical carnivore friend might start rethinking their life choices without any regrets!
We're talking loaded "steak" subs to "tuna" salad sandwiches and crispy "ahi" tostadas — Full Bloom Vegan's lineup is inventive, globally inspired, and fully committed to keeping your taste buds on their toes.
Whether it's brunch or dinner, you'll never be stuck choosing between the only two decent options — here, the whole menu is meant for YOU.

And no, this isn't your average pale kale spot that you'll forget about after the last bite!
At PLANTA, their renowned truffle udon gets top billing, crispy Bang Bang Broccoli steals the show, and the sushi rolls come with zero compromise.
