While doing research on dining destinations for Dallas Vegan lovers this year,
Spiral Diner’s recent announcement about a rare Monday opening for Valentine’s Day was a delightful surprise. For a purely vegan experience this year, they are an obvious choice.
However, for mixed couples (vegan & omnivore) where a dining experience on neutral ground is desired, we were reminded that fine-dining establishments are lagging behind other types of restaurants in offering vegan-friendly menus – with exception to Nana, whose vegan tasting menu ranks as one of the finest dining experiences anywhere.
That being said, many restaurants are usually able to accommodate vegan requests given a few days notice. We took the liberty of calling a few spots to see which ones would make a special effort for vegans. We can’t guarantee that what you get will be as fabulous as Spiral, but it’s certainly worth a shot. If you end up giving these a try, we’d love to hear about your experience:
