In the land of barbecue brisket and ground-beef tacos, vegans can rejoice at the presence of Spiral Diner. Owner Amy McNutt and husband/executive chef James M. Johnston have given Oak Cliff (and Fort Worth) a cornucopia of options attractive to the most dedicated carnivore. Try the "Ate" Layer Burrito, a tortilla stuffed with veggie taco meat, Mexican quinoa, black beans, olives, avocados and then some. Sip on organic free-trade coffee or teas or one of the many craft beers. To top it off, practically everything is made in-house in this modern spin on the 1960s greasy spoon.
For most of the crowd gathered there Sunday afternoon, the birthday bash at Spiral Diner was about celebrating three years of vegan eating in the always-friendly Oak Cliff spin-off, but for Mario Sanc... More »

Spiral Diner's staffers aren't letting an award from PETA distract them from their work slinging tofu scrambles and mixing soy milkshakes. "I really don't know," a man who identified himself as manag... More »

Spiral Diner, the kick-ass vegan restaurant in Oak Cliff, has more than just delicious veggie-monster-friendly meals: They have Oogave natural soda on tap. Oogave offers a variety of yummy flavors, including mandarin Key lime, cola and ginger ale. But none compare to their watermelon cream soda. It's sweet, pink, no-high-fructose-corn-syrup, all agave-sweetened hippie happiness. Watermelon cream soda from Oogave is about the best thing that this planet has to offer, non-alcoholic bev-wise,... More »
Longtime vegetarians are resigned to the fact that, when dining out, they usually have one or two choices on the menu. Lack of excitement washes over you as the server brings your steakhouse selection: a plate of iceberg lettuce with carrot shreds and a cherry tomato. So when you are presented with the abundance of choices at Spiral Diner--everything on the menu is vegan--prepare to feel a little overwhelmed. Sure, they have salads, if that's what you're into, but they also have... More »
Longtime vegetarians are resigned to the fact that, when dining out, they usually have one or two choices on the menu. Lack of excitement washes over you as the server brings your steakhouse selection: a plate of iceberg lettuce with carrot shreds and a cherry tomato. So when you are presented with the abundance of choices at Spiral Diner—everything on the menu is vegan—prepare to feel a little overwhelmed. Sure, they have salads, if that's what you're into, but they also have delicious wraps (the Parmigiana is warm and delicious), sandwiches, burgers, and pasta and other hot plates. Try "The Mitch," a savory tofu club sandwich, or for a heartier entrée, there's Viva Las Migas or Sketti & (Soy) Meatballs. Organic juices and coconut limeade are a delight. Desserts are plentiful, including "I-scream," cupcakes, cookies and brownies on our last visit. Blue Sky natural sodas are on tap, and you can indulge in some reading material while you wait—The Sexual Politics of Meat, anyone?
You won't even miss the meat at this vegan diner. Clever and tasty dishes, all with an emphasis on flavor and health. Love the steamed broccoli appetizer!
Can't beat the vegan selections! And the people watching is awesome :)
