Our Favorite Vegan-Friendly Restaurants in Southeast Michigan

As life starts to return back to normal after almost two years cooped up at home, the plant-based community is growing rapidly. People are reevaluating what it means to be healthy and often finding the answer is living a vegan lifestyle. Although cooking at home is enjoyable (especially with our recipes), eating out is convenient and great for social gatherings. Finding vegan food amongst thousands of restaurants is nearly impossible, but we have compiled a list of our top seven favorites for you.
