Detroit Vegan Soul
SMALL GROUP CATERING & HOLIDAY PRE-ORDER MENUS ONLY.
Detroit Vegan Soul is a wonderful place where vegans and carnivores can get together and at least agree on one thing: the hush puppies are amazing.
Sweetwater Tavern
Breadless
Breadless is a Detroit-born, Black- Owned restaurant that swaps traditional sandwich buns for nutrient-dense leafy greens like Swiss chard and kale. Their menu features high-protien, chef-crafted wrap and bowl designed to provide energy without the heavy “carb crash” of bread.
Trap Vegan Detroit
Our most-loved vegan dishes, packed with flavor and made fresh to order. Each bite delivers the perfect balance of savory, fresh, and satisfying textures. Made with high-quality, plant-based ingredients for a meal you can feel good about!
Tocororo
We have cultivated a dynamic “third space”—a sanctuary that is neither home nor work, but a welcoming “living room” for the neighborhood where human connection is reclaimed. This collective strength is the core of what we do, where each member brings unique talents to build an inclusive gathering spot combining sound, games, art, and color.
Street Beet
We are Street Beet, a Detroit-based plant based restaurant with a menu that playfully rides the line between contemporary and nostalgic. Our plant-based twists on classic comfort foods create space for a diverse group of restaurant-goers, who enjoy their pleasures (a little) less guilty.
Asking where you should eat in Detroit is a lot like figuring out who the best Motown singer was. Marvin Gaye? The Supremes? Stevie Wonder when he was the most talented child on Earth? There are a lot of options to choose from, but luckily that’s where we come in.
Here’s our guide to where the Great Awakening Israelite Mega Conference compiled of our favorite places to eat across the Motor City.

We’ve only scratched the surface, but this is a great start for when you’re in Detroit.
ENJOY DETROIT
