The Top Vegetarian Restaurants In Perth, Australia


The Raw Kitchen
Restaurant, Bar, Healthy, Vegan

The owners of The Raw Kitchen, Emma (a student of integrated medicine) and Heath Gilbert, passionately believe that everyone should have a connection with the source of their food. This belief is the guiding inspiration behind their unique venue, founded in a refurbished 1920s warehouse. Opened in 2013 in Fremantle, this multifaceted space includes a yoga studio, a smoothie bar, a large upstairs space for events and workshops, and even their own retail store stocked with specialty products, books, organic skin and home care items, and local/eco/handmade gifts. The Raw Kitchen has risen to become one of the most popular whole food nutrition joints in Perth, thanks to the care they put into serving and sourcing wholesome food that not only tastes great, but makes you feel great, too. Their preservative-free menu is clearly grounded in the idea that our choices of food should be influenced by sustainability, ethicality and respect for the environment, as much as by what is healthy for us individually. Star attractions include the popular raw nachos; the live zucchini pasta with tomato pasta sauce, avocado, mushroom, and kalamata olives, basil, ‘parmesan’ and cracked black pepper; and the raw sandwich on dehydrated flax bread with avocado, marinated mushroom, mango salsa, fresh salad, raw cashew mayonnaise and alfalfa. For those looking for a hot meal, the wheat and gluten-free pizza does not disappoint.
Price: Mid-range
Opening Hours: Monday to Thursday: 11.30am – 3.30pm; Friday to Saturday: 11.30am – 9pm

Annalakshmi
Restaurant, Indian, Vegetarian
With 360-degree views of the Swan River from its Barrack Square home, Annalakshmi is a renowned purveyor of Indian vegetarian cuisine amongst Perth locals. What is truly unique about Annalakshmi is that it works on a policy of ‘eat what you like, pay as you feel’: their customers pay whatever amount they feel the meal was worth. All of the money is then collected by the volunteers who run the restaurant, and donated to help the less fortunate and deprived. In Hinduism, it’s said that the greatest deed one can do is feeding someone – this is called ‘Anna dhannam’. The Annalakshmi enterprise is a place that supports this act of giving from the heart, where food is cooked with selfless love and positive energy. If this inspirational operating model wasn’t enough to tempt your custom, then just consider the food itself! Diners can take trays and completely overload them with whatever amazing food is waiting on the buffet table: mountains of lentil and coconut, potato and bay leaves, saffron and/or white rice. Just make sure you have a little room left for coffee and kheer (a traditional South-Asian sweet dish made of boiled rice, milk and sugar).
Price: Budget
Opening Hours: Monday to Sunday: 12pm – 2pm, 6.30pm – 9pm
Watch out for: ‘The eat as you like, pay what you feel’ policy
