Wonderful staff and excellent wings.

I wanted to try a few other items but they were changing over the kitchen from brunch and had a limited menu at the time of my visit.

What I had though was excellent and I'd definitely encourage anyone going here to try their wings and shakes!

Pros: Entirely vegan menu, Excellent location, Friendly staff

Best Vegan Restaurant in Syracuse

My favorites are the sweet sassy tofu, wings, and weekend brunch specials

Worth it for the shakes alone!

The specials are always excellent, and there are tons of delicious desserts available. It’s worth a trip to Syracuse for the variety of vegan milkshakes alone!

Pros: vegan, great food, flavor

I agree! I’ve only been to Syracuse once, and that’s where I had lunch. It’s great that it’s so busy!

Did not disappoint!

Finally had a chance to eat at this highly recommended place and it lived up to our expectations. Best chicken wings ever! We will definitely return next time we’re in Syracuse.

Great vegan food and atmosphere

We pre-ordered our food to pick up. There is parking across the street. We put the address into google maps and it took us to the apartment complex next door.

I haven’t been to this new location but I loved it! Much easier access and more spacious than the last location. Such friendly and nice staff, all vegan options! Definitely recommend stoping here!

We ordered 2 milkshakes a burger with fries and mozzarella sticks for around $38.

Pros: All vegan options

Cons: $$

ALWAYS stop here on road trips

I’m from Michigan, but live just north of Boston and my boyfriend and I always make a point to stop here on our road trips back from MI. We love the freedom of being able to order anything on the menu and the wings are unlike any vegan wing I’ve ever tried.. it’s complete sorcery!! Literally everything we’ve tried has been delicious (which is a lot because we usually order $100 of food for the two of us 😂)

Pros: All vegan, Best wings ever!!! Great sauce options, Reasonably priced and good location

Cons: None! Except it’s not in Salem, MA 😉

Your new vegan hangover cure.

This place is amazing. I was in town for a wedding, and may have indulged a little to much. The next morning I went to Strong Hearts Cafe and WOW was it amazing and very much needed. The vegan mozzarella sticks are out of this world, and the milkshakes are to die for. Wish I lived in the area because I seriously would eat here every day. A true gem.

Pros: great food, gluten free options, mozzarella sticks . . . do I need to say anymore?

Awesome food with menu items you don't always find!

Everything was absolutely fantastic. I wish there was a Strong Hearts in Maryland. My partner and I were in town for a wedding and did not expect much in northern NY as far as vegan options but what a pleasant surprise it was to order from Strong Hearts. The breakfast burrito, egg trick muffin, mozz sticks (YES, YOU READ CORRECTLY), and milkshake were great and fairly-priced. If I am ever back in Syracuse, I WILL be back.

Pros: Vegan options for traditionally non-vegan dishes, Fairly-priced, Eco-friendly packaging

Cons: There isn't a location in Maryland

Recommend Everything!

Everything I have tried here has been great. I recommended trying the piña colada smoothie and the large plate of nachos. They are great for sharing. They recently moved to a new location closer to the university and its larger, more seating inside and outside and very clean.

Great new location

I love their new location on Irving Ave. The place is much bigger, with outdoor seating, and a greatly expanded menu. I am a huge fan of their wings, and am so excited that the wings are now a permanent menu staple!

Pros: Great variety, Within walking distance of SU

Delicious Vegan Fare

Quaint bistro style restaurant with a ton of Milkshake options all day breakfast choices, lunch options and tons of massive sized desserts. It was extremely crowded when we entered which tells me it’s a hot spot and the food was delicious.

Pros: Lots of vegan options for both breakfast & lunch, Huge portions for food and desserts, Great service

Generous portions! Hearty breakfast. They offer both breakfast and lunch/dinner

Was on a business trip and looking for a vegan/vegetarian friendly place for breakfast. Came across Strong Hearts just a 15 min walk from my hotel downtown. It was a quant place with a chill vibe. Enjoyed the generous portions and staff here was helpful.

Pros: Vegan options at a reasonable able price

Cons: None

Always, always great

I love Strong Hearts!! For years, this has been my go-to place for vegan food in Syracuse. As with any all-vegan restaurant, it is so refreshing to be able to order ANYTHING that they serve!! They provide consistent quality, run several great specials every month, and always have such great treats!! The cupcakes and milkshakes (try Earth Crisis!!) are particularly great. The Rueben is my favorite regular menu item; the regular menu items are priced very reasonably. Such great, delicious vegan comfort food!! Visit them on Friday for pizza night when their normal menu is swapped out for amazing pizza options!!

Pros: Lots of vegan dessert options, Lots of menu options and specials, Consistent quality over the years

100% vegan 100% delicious

As of this writing (Aug 2019) the only vegan restaurant in the area (besides their second location on the Hill of course). This place is a favorite among local prevegans and vegans alike as they strive to be regular comfort food, but vegan.

Milkshakes, burgers, sandwiches(my fav is the chikn salad sandwich, made with soy curls-which comes out exactly how I remember the cruel version), wraps (my fav is buffalo kale, add sweet and sassy tofu), homemade soups, bomb breakfasts, killer monthly specials plus on Fridays only they serve pizza and wings. Oh! How could I forget the desserts - amazing assortment of cupcakes, plus cookies and other baked goods, and the cheesecake... definitely get the cheesecake.

They're getting ready to move to a larger location likely in Oct. so more awesomeness is soon in store!

They are also eco friendly using real plates and silverware in house and then compostable stuff for to go orders.

They care about the community and support local organizations too.

Pros: Abundant and really really good options, 100% vegan, Eco friendly

Cons: Small current space =wait times at times, Overeating because the food is so good

Amazing food...kid friendly

I got the chickpea salad sandwich and a chocolate mint milkshake and they were both delicious. The milkshake was nice and thick. And the chickpea Salad sandwich was just perfect. I would definitely recommend. I am only 13 and my mom took me and my younger siblings here and we all loved it. Great place to eat for the whole family.

Pros: Totally vegan, Family friendly

Amazing

I have never ordered something here I didn't love. The "Chicken" Salad Sandwich is hands down the best! Their milkshakes are great as well. The coffee is from Recess (local) which is fantastic.

Pros: 100% vegan

Green Scram

Stopped in for a quick breakfast here on the way to NYC and enjoyed it very much. Kind staff, reasonable prices, large portions. I had the green tofu scramble with toast. Nice take on the tofu scramble with pesto, broccoli, green peppers, and maybe some other green things that I'm forgetting.

Excellent Vegan Food!

The food is excellent. I ate the cajun seitan panini on rye, and it was over the top delicious. They also have a large selection of milkshakes, I got the chocolate cappuccino and wow! That was also amazing! There is also a really nice selection of cupcakes and cookies for dessert, also sooo yummy. I traveled to Syracuse just for this restaurant and will come again, worth the trip, I highly recommend!

Pros: All vegan food!!, Huge selection of milkshake flavors, Vegan breakfast!

Cons: Small dining room, On-street parking, although i know they are moving

All around great!

Really enjoyed this place! Food was awesome and milkshakes were even better! I felt like their menu was just big enough ( I feel too big is overwhelming). Really good ambiance as well and can’t forget all the amazing vegan treats they have as well! I can’t wait to try out their breakfast menu it looks fantastic!

Pros: Good options, Lovely atmosphere, MILKSHAKES
