Looking for a vegan restaurant in Raleigh? The Dirty V at 301 Glenwood Ave is the city's premier 100% plant-based dining destination. Unlike restaurants that simply add a few vegan options to their menu, our entire operation is built around vegan food—every ingredient, every recipe, every dish. This singular focus allows our kitchen team to deliver plant-based comfort food at a level that's simply not possible at a restaurant where vegan is an afterthought.
The Dirty V's menu reads like a greatest hits of American comfort food—burgers, loaded fries, mac and cheese, hot dogs, milkshakes—but everything is 100% vegan. Our plant-based patties are crafted to deliver the juicy, satisfying bite of a traditional burger. Our cheese is rich and melty. Our shakes are thick and creamy. We've reverse-engineered comfort food classics using only plant-based ingredients, and the results speak for themselves.
As Raleigh's go-to vegan restaurant, The Dirty V serves as both a destination and a gateway. Long-time vegans come because they finally have a restaurant where they can eat everything. Curious non-vegans come to see what the fuss is about and leave as converts. Located in Glenwood South with a full bar and late-night hours, we offer a complete restaurant experience that happens to be 100% cruelty-free.
