The Local - Naples

All vegan options are clearly labeled under the “plant-based” section. Other items on the menu are marked with a “V” if they can be modified into a vegan dish. Desserts typically include vegan chia seed pudding and seasonal sorbet(s). *I was recently told the pizza crust has a bit of honey in it, so if you are honey free, make sure you check that!

Plant Based section on the menu offered lots of great choices. my husband loved the black bean burger. Staff was personable and knowledgeable. Will be back!

This place had many vegetarian options that could be made vegan. The server was very knowledgeable and knew what was and wasn't vegan. I almost got pasta but he let me know I'd have to eat their gluten free pasta since their house made pasta had egg. I got the kung pao avocado instead and it was AMAZING.

The ambiance was nice. The menu had several vegan options (V) (pizza/flatbreads, salads and bean burger) Pizza must be ordered with no cheese, there is no vegan alternative. But veggie pizza was still very tasty.

A visit to SW Florida has always been a culinary challenge for us with very few vegan options and we loved our dining experience at The Local. We started with the lettuce cups which were so amazing with an absolutely delectable marinate for the eggplant/mushroom filling. I had the farm plate that consists of four sides of choice, all of which were delicious with interesting flavors, and my husband loved the kung pao avocado. We will be back!
