The Purple Elephant - Northport

This restaurant is a fantastic spot with a primarily vegetarian menu. They offer a variety of cuisines, including vegan wings, tacos, and Asian-inspired dishes. The nachos were delicious and the cheese didn't taste like cashew cheese. The vegan wings were tasty, but I wish there were more than three in an order. The stuffed spaghetti squash was also excellent, with a generous portion packed with green peppers, red peppers, garlic, and vegan chicken. However, the dish has a strong tomato flavor, so it may not be for you if you dislike tomatoes.

Went here on a Thursday afternoon for lunch and it was perfect! LOTS of GF options and very tasteful food. The view of the water is the perfect backdrop while dining. Will definitely be back!!

Amazing vegan food! I have been to so many vegan restaurants in Long Island, Brooklyn, Manhattan, LA and this is def top 5 of my all time favorite. The food is delicious, the server was very kind and accommodating with our 6 month old in a stroller. You can eat outside in the back patio where you can see a beautiful view or inside with good Cold AC. Bathroom was super clean. I loved the decoration on the walls and the vibe was very relaxed. People were very relaxed and casual as well. I felt super comfortable and the staff were smiling and very friendly. The vegan food in the pictures were all 5/5 stars! Can’t recommend this place enough. The cons: parking is limited and have sign for some spots that are limited only to 45 minutes. I ignored the time limit and was fine. Proceed at your own risk.

Food was really good. My wife is a vegetarian and more than half the menu is vegan friendly. However, there was definitely (hopefully? something wrong with the air conditioner and there were more bugs flying around than I would've liked (we sat inside .

My family and I love The Purple Elephant. Even our pickiest eater loves it here and enjoys several different items on the menu. I personally love the surfers’ bowl and can easily have it every day. Whether you’re vegan or a carnivore you will find something you’ll love here. We happily drive almost an hour to get here. So worth it.
