Merkato Ethiopian Cafe

  • January 12, 2016
  • Las Vegas Vegan Dining

It’s easy for Ethiopian to be vegan-friendly. In Vegas, there are an abundance of Ethiopian spots to soak up all the flavors. Merkato Ethiopian Restaurant happens to be one of our favorites.

Housed in a quiet strip mall about 10 minutes from The Strip, Merkato isn’t pretentious. At all. In fact, it’s the opposite and about as un-Vegas as you can get.

Las Vegas Vegan-Friendly Restaurant: Merkato Ethiopian Restaurant

Merkato Ethiopian offers a delicious vegan sampler plate perfect for two to split. For more vegan dining options in Las Vegas, visit www.vegansbaby.com/vegansbaby2018

You don’t come here for posh or design, you come for the food. And, it’s good. 

Vegan options at Merkato Ethiopian Restaurant

The restaurant offers quite a few vegan selections, as well as a veggie combo platter that delivers six or so vegan selections that are enough to split between two people. If you’re not feeling a platter (but, seriously, order the platter), there’s also lentil sambusas to devour or the veggie dishes a la carte.

It’s not expensive, service is quick and the food is delicious.

4970 Arville St., 89118, 702-776-6769, 11 a.m.  – 2 a.m.

Pin it!

Merkato Ethiopian Restaurant is a vegan-friendly restaurant in Las Vegas. For more vegan options in Las Vegas, visit www.vegansbaby.com

Hours of operation and menu offerings may vary due to staffing issues. Please check directly with the restaurant regarding hours and offerings.

Like what you see? I love being able to share vegan eats. Could you help me keep sharing —  buy me a coffee or slice of vegan pizza?

Are you planning a trip to Las Vegas or looking for vegan eats on The Strip? Here are the most vegan-friendly Las Vegas hotels on The Strip.

Check out some of my ethical product round-ups, and more over on Benable, which is not Amazon because they suck. Just so you know, I receive a small commission from items purchased via this link. The proceeds go directly to the operation of Vegans, Baby and keeping the site free.
