Meskerem Ethiopian Restaurant & Market

Ethiopian food tends to be exceptionally well suited for vegans. Las Vegas has an Ethiopian restaurant right off the Strip at Convention Center Drive. Although Meskerem offers only one vegan entree and a couple appetizers, the fact that they're open 24 hours a day most days of the week makes them a good option.
