Great!

I've only been here once after getting picked up from the airport in Dallas. The interior was very cute, and the service was good. I had the spinach quesadilla with tofu as my protein. I wasn't a fan of the texture of the tofu but that was my own mistake for ordering it instead of tempeh. The overall flavor was good, it was my first time having vegan cheese and it tasted pretty realistic. My dad got the portabella burger, and said it was good but they used a pretty small mushroom cap compared to what I thought. After lunch, I got a brownie which was the best vegan brownie I've had so far. I look forward to coming back next time I'm in the Dallas area.

Don't wait or hesitate to go

I have been vegan for 5 years and was turned off by faux meats. My impression was that's all Spiral offered, so never went. It's not the case and my loss for not going back sooner.

Went for brunch and could not get enough of the pancakes with blueberries. What makes them so darn good?!

The staff are great, the atmosphere feels diner authentic and great options.

Pros: all vegan. , relaxed fun atmosphere. , great service.

Charming place, delucious food!

Old fashioned diner offers and excellent all vegan menu. We had the quesadillas (spinach and mushroom), chocolate chip cookie, latte and, chai tea. The quesadillas are sure to satisfy everyone so bring your non-vegan friends! We love chai and this one of the better ones we've had. Loved it!

Pros: Not expensive at all.

Cool Place

Good Food. A lot of fake meat and cheese but you would probably assume that before going. It is a diner after all. The service was great and staff was very friendly. I felt like it was on the expensive side but for me it was worth it because it was 100% vegan and I didn't have to scrutinize the menu for ingredients. I highly recommend the queso. It was delicious. The tiramisu ice cream was so good it was hard to believe it was vegan. There's a lot to choose from and they have breakfast all day. I went with 2 meat eaters and they were completely satisfied. The atmosphere is awesome and I loved the music they played. They also sell some vegan groceries.

Pros: vegan groceries, friendly staff

Cons: expensive, parking isn't great

Vegan Junk Food Fix

Been out drinking all night? Been out drinking all day? Want to have a drink? This is probably your best go-to place for hangover help, 'middle of getting your drink on' food, or 'need a drink and grub'. Basically a huge assortment of vegan "junk" food. All pretty good looking. Funny experience...we were waited on by the ENTIRE staff (upwards of 6 peeps)...well, perhaps not the kitchen staff, but everyone on front of the house duty visited our table. Got the quesadillas - didn't want them on flour tortillas so they subbed corn. Twas nice of 'em.

Excellent

The Dallas location is every bit as good as the Fort Worth original, and maybe friendlier. Highly recommended for meals, snacks, drinks (including fresh juices and great vegan milkshakes) and desserts.

BEST NACHOS EVER

Seriously, this place is fantastic. My husband and I have eaten here a couple of times now, and we absolutely love it! You MUST get the nachos and cheese. You absolutely must. It is positively delicious. I'm also a big fan of their all day lunch plate, which is an awesome meal, especially for WFPB. The quesadilla and seitan tacos are also a stellar choice. Plus, the atmosphere of this place is pretty incredible too. Just saying, it is an awesome looking place, with super friendly and happy staff. I wish I could give them 6 cows.This place is one of my all time favorite restaurants. (NOTE: I have been to both locations,Ft. Worth and Dallas, and both of them are just as stellar as the other one. I've left the same review for both)

Pros: Amazing food, Awesome staff, Best nachos ever

Cons: Honestly, I can't think of one.

Awesome! Especially in Texas!!

Great diner, huge menu. Hard to decide what to order since it's entirely vegan! My non-veg friend really enjoyed her meal too. Awesome dessert menu, both on the actual menu, as well as the two glass cases with cupcakes, cinnamon rolls, sliced cake, etc. They make their own vegan ice cream which is deliciously creamy. A must visit if you're in Dallas!

Pros: Huge menu, Delicious desserts

Excellent!

Lovely options. Ironically, no french fries. Nacho's are a must. Great service and atmosphere. Better than some vegan restaurants in L.A.

Total VEGAN AMERICANA !

Spiral is a must for everyone who wants clean, natural, organic, VEGAN food, free of animal contents ! The portions are gigantic and the place is spacious and comfortable. Located in a peaceful setting, the smell of fresh vegan food makes you want to try everything offered on the menu of healthy variety.
Non-pretentious, just honest vegan food with true Southwest flair if you so choose.

Pros: Delicious Vegan, Ample portions, Happy Staff

I've been to Spiral tons of times. Love everything on their menu. They're well known for their Nachos Supremo boasting an incredible cashew cheese sauce.

Love to come here for my birthday too! You've gotta try a chocolate cupcake!

Breakfast/Brunch/Lunch/Dinner/Dessert/Drinks -they have it all!

Pros: Organic Wine/Beer, Stellar Staff/Chefs, A little bit of everything on menu

Cons: NOT OPEN MONDAYS lol -will I ever learn?

lives up to the hype!

Was in town for a show and was thrilled to have time to finally try some infamous Spiral food! I got the Big Kahuna and a slice of strawberry cheese cake to-go one night, and went back the next day for brunch and got a single pancake and the breakfast quesadilla. All were mindblowingly delicious. The big kahuna burger (I chose the cashew quinoa patty) was so many levels of awesome! And the pancake was the best vegan pancake I've ever had. The quesadilla was ooey-gooey scrumptious!
So happy Spiral Diner exists!!

Love the Spiral Diner!

It's so cool that there are two locations, because sometimes we're in Dallas, sometimes in Fort Worth, and either way we know we can have a fantastic lunch! The wraps are excellent! The homemade ice cream and milkshakes are delicious and great texture. Love the cookies! Great atmosphere and friendly staff.

Pros: milkshakes and homemade ice cream, cookies, creative wraps

They have everything!

I love this place! I plan to go every Sunday for brunch. I'm going to work my way right through the menu. I started with the pancakes and hash browns and freshly juiced orange juice. They also have shirts and products to buy and take home.

Pros: Great food!, Great service!, Everything is vegan!

Cons: Tiny parking lot., Small and crowded, When busy can be noisy

Definitely go here!

The best part about this place- besides being 100% vegan and having an awesomely friendly team of staff is that every omni that I have ever taken here is always pleasantly surprised. This would be great for a vegan meet-up or for a mixed group. Their VLT is so good- I've gotten it almost every time I've went and their milkshakes are amazing!

Pros: Friendly staff, Excellent food for great prices, Fun theme

Wish we had a Spiral Diner!

We ate a both the Fort Worth and Dallas locations and loved each one. We were happy that there was a great selection of food and that it is all Vegan! The wait staff was fantastic and the atmosphere lively. Oh, and the food is great!

Could not believe the food served is 100% vegan! Everything is delicious! The Nachos Supremo was incredible! As a vegan, it's nice to know there are restaurants that can provide great, quality food for us to enjoy. Will certainly visit again and again.

Spiraling Upward!

First time here...but not the last! Came in from out of town and I knew I had to hit this place. Brought two skeptical, non-vegans with me and they left with knowledge and contentment. Food was great as I tried several things from other plates of the people I was with. I will most likely be back. I felt the prices were a little high and our particular waiter was pretty slow (never checked on us), but the food made up for it! Cool building, but strange part of town. Everyone was friendly and the diversity from the staff to the customers was great to see!!!

Pros: nice staff, great food, cool vibe

Cons: a little pricey, waiter needs to step it up

Cons: Parking

Guilty pleasure

I have been to Spiral Diner twice now, and I've really enjoyed it both times. The nachos are amazing and so is the hummus! Most recently, I ordered the BBQ sandwich, and while I don't usually like the taste of fake meat, I was pleasantly surprised. They have a LOT of "fat" vegan foods on their menu, which is a wonderful treat sometimes when you mostly eat raw fruits and veggies. Overall a great restaurant with lots of options.
