How did I miss this place for so many years. I'm mostly plant based so this is right up my alley. I could not decide so I got the supremo freeto pie for lunch and now having the buffalo bowl for dinner. If you like Frito Pie, you will LOvE this top notch dish. The bowl has more vegetables than I have ever seen in any restaurant dish. The tempeh is homemade and yummy! And both dishes were substantial. I'm full and still have enough leftover for breakfast. I'll be baaaaack!!!! read more

Went back again recently to their brick and mortar. I swear if this place was closer to me, I'd go weekly. Husband got the smokehouse burrito and I got the original freeto burrito. Made on the spot, hot, delicious, and owner is always super friendly. I always mean to get something other the original but since I don't get to go as often as I'd like, when I do go, I tend to stick to my fav. They have dogs I'd love to try next :) the yacht has always been one of my fav restaurants in all of Austin, pls go support if you're looking for hyper local family run delicious vegan food :) read more

The Vegan Yacht - so. freaking. good. - Vegan Near Me - Austin, Texas

Came here and was surprisingly happy with what I had. I'm not vegan but it was good vibes, great customer service, and halfway decent food. It has a few parking spots on site and a lot on the street. It has a baby blue / turquoise exterior so it's hard to miss. And it has a big beautiful sign that says The Vegan Yatch etched on the side of the building. When you enter it'll remind you of a food hall but only with one restaurant. There's metal chairs that matches the turquoise exterior wall. There's merch, a cooler with items you can purchase for home, colorful umbrellas hanging from the ceiling, and a counter where you order. The burrito / bowl will cost you about 14 dollars. My colleague got the smokehouse burrito bowl which has bbq tempeh and I got a freeto pie because I had never heard of it before. It's essentially tempeh chili (every place has a different version) with corn chips, avocado, and vegan cheese. There are starters, Mac n cheese, children and adult menu. Solid place if you're interested in becoming vegan, or if you're accompanying people like me or if you're a vegan pro. read more

the buffalo tempeh burrito was very good. The thing came out and it was like the size of my head so I ate half and saved the other half for later. TLDR; cost effective and good vegan find. read more

The food is So good it just reinforces the fact that people who say vegan food tastes bland are insane. The people who run the place are kind, considerate, compassionate and generous. No animals were harmed in the making of this food, it's all vegan. The planet was moved toward destruction by factory farming. The people who run the place recycle and compost. By eating here you're doing a part of moving the needle away from violence and destruction. Empathy in eatery. It's here. Highly recommended!! read more

While eating Vegan Yacht's fabulous dishes, family of elder, parents and children from 1 to 7 years old came and they shared beautiful spirits during dining! We had their famous Freeto Pie and Buffalo Bowl.... These ARE so delicate!!! If need happiness, just go to Vegan Yacht's! read more

Freeto Burrito Supreemo was very good. I ate half while dining in, and took the other half to go, which I finished later. Vibe was casual. Service was friendly and attentive. I look forward to trying their other burritos in the future. read more

Such a cute little spot! The staff are very friendly and helpful. I got the freeto burrito because it was an award winner. I loved that it was grilled and the crunch of the fritos was delicious. It felt overwhelming with beans, I couldn't taste much of anything else. read more

The Vegan Yacht - freeto burrito - Vegan Near Me - Austin, Texas

My sister and I came here for lunch last weekend, and found it to be a cute hole-in-the-wall kind of place for simple, vegan meals and snacks in a market-like set-up. I got a comida bowl sans rice and with soy curls added in. It was super flavorful, filling, and topped full with onion! They also had Zucchini Kill baked goods for sale, so I helped myself to their Waffle Cream Pie. I wasn't a huge fan (I found the cake part was more like sweet cornbread), but it was nice to have some vegan dessert options to accompany the meal! Pricing was decent based on comparable places in Austin. It can be a bit of a drive to get to, especially coming from North Austin, but if you are already in the South Congress area, it's a nice place to make a pit stop at foe your vegan fix!! read more

This is such a great vegan food spot! The wraps in the bowls are huge portions and super flavorful. I really respect and love what they're doing with their mac & cheese even though it's not necessarily my favorite taste I can appreciate how much went into making it vegan and super creamy. Service is really fast and friendly, and the place itself is decorated nicely and has lots of great vegan food on the shelves for purchase. We will be going back here often to work our way through the menu. read more

The food is generally good here. I did order a hotdog once that came without cheese. Everything else I've ordered has been correct. I like the freeto burrito. They have a lot of chips with the queso. The menu is pretty limited and the food is good for the most part but doesn't "wow" me, except the freeto burrito. They made that really well. The beans, grilling, chips, perfection. The staff is friendly an helpful. The location is hard to turn into or out of depending on where you're coming from because of all the cars driving by. Ed though there's not much parking, I've always found a spot. Definitely worth checking out. read more

I'm not vegan, but my good friend is, and we've visited this spot a few times. I always go for the burritos. They have incredible tortilla, and I especially enjoy the buffalo burrito. The spicy tempeh and shredded cabbage add great flavor, and the portion size is generous. I usually eat half and save the rest for later. The counter service is very fast, and the place is never too crowded. Even on a Sunday at lunchtime, I've never had to wait long. read more

Yummy! I love this little spot tucked nicely in our neighborhood. They have a wonderful selection of vegetarian snacks and some pretty unique jerky options. We like coming here for lunch and splitting the buffalo burrito as well as some samosas. They have vegetarian Indian food and lots of fresh food options.I definitely definitely recommend recommend! read more

It's always smooth sailing aboard The Vegan Yacht! I can't stay away, especially when visitors come to town and want a taste of the best burrito here. The Freeto Burrito is award winning for a reason! It's just hard to beat the one-two punch of spicy tempeh chili and crunchy corn chips, all wrapped up in a grilled tortilla. Oh right, and don't forget the luscious slab of avocado packed in there, too. I must admit though, I'm personally hooked on the Smokehouse Burrito turned into a bowl. It's not listed on the menu as such but they'll happily oblige. The deep, woodsy smoke on that tender tempeh is just unparalleled. Set it atop a bed of creamy slaw plus mac and cheese... Well, I think that explains my eagerness to return right there. read more

Kind and attentive service. Good quality, healthy wrap. Wonderful to have a vegan place near us while we were visiting. Definitely check it out. I prefer a bit more sweetness or creaminess to balance the vinegar of the buffalo sauce, but that's on me. read more

Such a wonderful restaurant. I've been here several times and the food is always great. Freeto Burrito Supreemo is my favorite - sooo good!

Super yummy vegan food, kind and quick service. I would recommend anything with Fritos included - it gives the food that extra crunch!

GAS- just go you won't regret it - so many options- super friendly environment- lots of drinks and snacks to be purchased as well as their food menu read more

Service was friendly and quick. Imagine holding a football between your hands. Now split that football in half, holding one side in each hand. That's what the mock chicken salad wrap feels like. "Look at this!" I shouted to C. as I held up half a wrap like Simba. Lots of crispy shredded carrots, fresh sprouts, and mock chicken salad. Also, wonderful grill marks on both sides of the wrap. The mock chicken salad smelled and tasted like a cigarette, one with a good chicken texture. I never forgot that the chicken salad was the mock version, like I do when eating the one from Whole Foods. I grew up as a member of the Clean-your-Plate Club and would normally take on the massive wrap as a challenge. However, my stretchy jeans are becoming less stretchy so I saved the other half for lunch the next day. The cigarette smell was still there. read more

Freeto burrito and smokehouse burrito- my husband loved both! Awesome little vegan market inside as well with lots of vegan chocolates and snacks. We were sad to hear they got rid of the soft serve machine. We'll be back to try the bowls! read more

My wrap was kinda just okay. I thought it was a little dry and the flavors were strange. Maybe tempeh, pickles, and raw veggies in a tortilla is just not my thing. I didn't finish and took it home. Ate it later after taking it apart, cooking the contents and putting them back in with some sauce. I saw images of outdoor seating online before I went, but wasn't sure where it was when I was there. In general I found the seating to be a little bare boned and not too comfortable. read more

The Vegan Yacht - Oño on Buffalo Burrito - Vegan Near Me - Austin, Texas

We had their freeto burrito for lunch today, and boy it was good. It contains all the requisite food groups including crunchy, so you don't even need to order chips and queso on the side. But we did have their chips and vegan queso with black beans and jalapeno added, and it was quite a treat. They have small vegan cupcakes and other treats to top off the meal; we tried one with lavender and enjoyed it. The Vegan Yacht is definitely an asset to the neighborhood and the Austin food scene, and I recommend it even for non-vegans. read more

Ate there years ago. Tried to make small talk with the owner, but he wasn't having it. I paid with my Amex card, then a few days later I got an email saying, "Your card was declined because we don't accept american express....we voided it so it was never taken out. it was $37. can we get that at your earliest convenience? thanks, mike" I noted the distinct lack of "I'm sorry" or "Please", or even a proper thank you. Whatever, I called and paid again. Then I got my Amex credit card statement, and I see that they *did* charge my Amex, as well as the second card I used. So I paid twice. I emailed them and asked politely for a refund (using the words "please" and "thank you"). No reply. So I wrote again. Again, no reply. I haven't been back since. read more

Get the buffalo bowl!! This place is not cheap, but it's delicious and you will feel great afterwards. Definitely recommend!

Great food, portions, and options. Love that there is a grocery section for vegans and gluten-free customers. Fun atmosphere with delicious vegan food! read more

Check this place out if you ever find yourself in south Austin TX, yummy food and a cute little market attached with a smoothie and coffee bar. Super friendly staff, such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Also I was very impressed with the eco conscious details, like the little hot sauce container that looked like a regular plastic cup was compostable. Super cool, I hope more places do likewise. read more

Superb quality food from high quality ingredients. One of my favorites stops for lunch and vegan groceries. The one piece of advice I could give you is try all the burritos. read more

My friend suggested this place to try and man was this a good choice. We ordered the freeto burrito and the buffalo burrito and damn were they big. Like big as as your face big. The freeto burrito was outstanding, filled with beans and corn chips, great texture and flavor. The buffalo burrito was also amazing, great taste and really good paired with their homemade hot sauce. Do yourself and favor and add onions and jalapenos. My wife tried their desserts as well and said they were great, we will definitely be back. read more

The Vegan Yacht - #SpookySeason - Vegan Near Me - Austin, Texas

Excellent food, excellent service, and super trusting employees! I went here for the first time with my bro for my birthday, since I heard about The Vegan Yacht's famous, award-winning Freeto Burrito! (Amazing btw, and super filling!) After leaving the place and over an hour passed by, I left a valuable backpack behind. I called and Mike, told me they had it safe! Despite the long drive back, it was still there safe. I want to thank him, his wife and anyone else that was a part of this amazing service! It seriously made my day! I highly recommend this place, not just for the food, but for the trustworthy environment and people there! And to top it off, we left with a free birthday dessert (even though I felt like I wanted to tip them for this brilliant service!) Thank you! -Suhani read more

The Vegan Yacht - Comida burrito - Vegan Near Me - Austin, Texas

Arrived at 4:30 on a Sunday afternoon. Not a long line, and the place was empty. I ordered a frito pie and was told all orders were to go only. Since it was over 100° outside I asked if if it would be possible to eat inside if I finished before the 5pm closing time and was given a very hard NO. Ok, I'll eat in the car. May I have an extra napkin? The dude at the counter gave me such a skowl!!! Sadly the "chili" was just tastless beans, almost nothing else except for the avocado and cheese on top. I did find a few crumbles of tempeh, one piece of tomato, three or four grains of corn at the bottom. The worst part, there was absolutely no taste whatsoever. Not a hint of cumin or any other seasoning. They provided a single packet of Cholula hot sauce. Added one star because the ingredients were fresh. I'll not return. The grocery next door was cool. read more

I already revived them on doors dash but I gotta do it again! My favorite vegan food in the area! Burritos are absolutely top! Always order when I'm hungry and don't have time to cook anything! Love it!! read more

I didn't get to eat my food. The gentleman handled my money and never washed his hands and made my food. Cute and smells great. Was looking forward to eating my food Maybe some other time. Just not today read more

Darn good vegan burrito! Size, flavor, ingredients, and kick. Well done. Had the frito pie burrito.

Tried the freeto pie (mini), comida bowl, and the smokehouse burrito. It was all good, but the smokehouse burrito was really outstanding. Basically imagine you filled up a plate at the family bbq, then wrapped it all up in a tortilla. Such a delicious idea. Will be eating here every time we're in town from now on. read more

My non-vegan Filipina mama joined me on her first ever Vegan restaurant experience. I live in LA & have a pretty good variety of Vegan options so wasn't sure what to expect while visiting Texas. Was pleasantly surprised how AWESOME our burrito bowls were. My mom was being complicated and wanted tofu, which is not on their menu. She tried the Buffalo tempeh bowl and loveddd it, liked it more than tofu. I really enjoyed my comida bowl & it reminded me of chipotle. Vibes were great, friendly service & right next door to a market. read more
