Dubai's plant-based scene runs from juice bars to tasting menus, but the sweet spot is the middle. The best mid-range vegan restaurants in Dubai in 2026 deliver proper, satisfying plant-based meals for roughly AED 50 to 180 a head — the everyday tables you can return to weekly without the fine-dining bill.
This guide spans dedicated plant-based kitchens and strongly vegan-friendly all-day spots. Each pick comes with a signature dish and price, and we've leaned toward rooms that vegans and vegetarians can rely on for a full, generous meal rather than a side plate.

What 'mid-range' means for plant-based dining
At the top end, Dubai's vegan tasting menus can run past AED 300 a head; at the bottom, falafel counters and juice bars keep it under AED 30. The mid-range is where most people actually eat — sit-down rooms with table service, a full menu and a bill that lands between roughly AED 50 and 180 per person before drinks.
The picks below cluster in that band. Some are fully plant-based (Wild & The Moon, Soulgreen); others are vegetable-first kitchens where vegans and vegetarians eat exceptionally well (Comptoir 102, Avli, Eataly's Vegetable Bar). All deliver a complete meal, not a compromise.
The 10 Mid-Range Vegan & Vegetarian Picks — Ranked
Ranked on the quality and breadth of the plant-based menu, consistency and value within the mid-range band.
Wild & The Moon
Dubai's best-known plant-based café group — cold-pressed juices, grain bowls, jackfruit tacos and raw desserts, all vegan. Bright, healthy and genuinely satisfying for the price.
Soulgreen
A stylish California-Italian plant-forward restaurant where the vegan dishes are the headline — 'no-meat' balls, spiralised vegetables and wood-fired plates. Polished but unpretentious.
SEVA Table
A serene vegetarian café and wellness spot with a largely-vegan menu — Buddha bowls, dosas and plant-based comfort food in a calm, plant-filled room.
Comptoir 102
A chic concept-store café built on organic, seasonal cooking with a strong plant-based bent. Beautiful vegetable plates and superfood bowls in a leafy courtyard.
Teible
A design-led, sustainability-driven restaurant where vegetables lead the menu. The set lunch in particular is a vegetable-forward bargain in a calm, gallery-like room.
Avli by Tashas
Tashas Group's elegant Greek restaurant with a deep vegetarian meze list — flamed cheese, grilled vegetables, gigantes and dolmades. Polished and easy to keep vegan.
Bombay Bungalow
A handsome modern-Indian room with a rich vegetarian section — paneer, dal, tandoor vegetables and chaat — in a relaxed, all-day setting.
Mythos Kouzina & Grill
A warm Greek taverna with a generous meat-free meze list — flamed saganaki, garlicky greens and stuffed vine leaves — easy to keep vegetarian and largely vegan-adaptable.
Cedar Tree
A long-running Lebanese restaurant with an extensive cold- and hot-mezze list that's effortless to keep vegetarian or vegan. Generous, shareable and consistent.
Eataly Vegetable Bar
Eataly's vegetable-focused counter celebrates produce Italian-style — antipasti, vegetable pastas and meat-free classics, easy to navigate vegan.
For guaranteed-vegan meals in this band, anchor on Wild & The Moon and Soulgreen; the vegetable-first kitchens like Avli, Eataly and Mythos are vegetarian by default and adapt to vegan on request. Lunch sets — especially at Teible — are the best value of all.
