50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Boulder Creek

“My family and I ate here while we were staying in the Brookdale area for a vacation, and the food here was absolutely amazing. All together we ordered the crab rangoons, veggie egg rolls, sticky red bean buns, Za Jiang beef, and the Singapore rice noodles. All of our dishes were piping hot and delicious, and the portions were very generous! They provide free water and hot tea, which was great after coming in from the cold. The staff are amazing, and Jenny checked on us during our meal and seems like such a wonderful person. I only wish we had discovered this gem sooner so we could come back before our vacation is over. If we're ever back in Santa Cruz county we'll definitely be eating here again!“

“Good coffee, great lox bagels friendly staff. Stay away from Starbucks and their corporate corn syrup sludge. Jenna Sue's makes proper espresso drinks and has much better food as well. The baristas are fast and super cool people. Also a nice place to sit it front and watch the going on downtown.Parking: Park around the corner or across the streetKid-friendliness: Not a ton of room in here, but the staff are very friendly with kids.Wheelchair accessibility: Stairs to the front door, but a ramp to bypass them.“

“Food is done right, from the sashimi to the rolls to the tempura. Tae and Amy are so personable and warm. Looking forward to using the outside area in the sunny season!Kid-friendliness: I see happy families in here all the time. Atmosphere is open and clean.“

“Not only are the sanwiches amazing, but the staff is super friendly and down to earth. Sam and Steven took very good care of me and a friend when we had lunch. Steven went above and beyond. Love this place. It's definitely a new favorite.“

“Awesome sushi and fast service. To be honest, you are really missing out if you are in Scott's Valley for dinner and don't come here. Service: Fast, polite waiters have your food out in minutes and always check to make sure you are enjoying the food. Food: Undoubtedly the best sushi place I've been to. The popcorn lobster roll is great but the chicken katsu is incredible. Bento boxes come with tons of food: salad, fruit, rice, sauce, extra veggies, and choice of two main dishes (rolls, tempura, etc.) Sushi rolls are packed with ingredients and are super tasty. You will always leave feeling full. Ambiance: Red lights on shelf close to ceiling, creating a strip light like effect. Walls are filled with Japanese paintings. Seats are red and black, including booths. There is a sushi bar to sit at, and multiple TVs playing sports games. Price: A bit pricey, but definitely worth it. Ingredients are always super fresh and leave you super full. In reality, you won't find a sushi place much cheaper anyways. In all, amazing resturaunt!“

“We enjoyed a delicious meal. The starters of Mexican Shaved Corn and Tempura Green Beans were delicious. We enjoyed a pomegranate/frisée salad that was elegant. The BBQ ribs, hamburger, and scallops were terrific as well. Our server Brianna did everything well and was fun to chat with. It was a lovely night.“

“Hector and Angie are the best. Their tapas are unique and delicious. Love the indurain skewers , shishito peppers and authentic jamon and Queso. Little known secret is their wagyu ribeye is the very best steak in the Bay Area. Perfectly flavoured and prepared. And the selection of Albariño , Rioja and Jerez sherry. Our favourite go to place in the south bay. Much better food than other top tier restaurants in Los Gatos and saratoga. With much better value. Our favorite.“

“What a find! Great service and food! The hostess, waiter and bus staff were all friendly and helpful without any hovering. Easy to talk to and they conversed well with us. That’s not so common nowadays.We had the gamberetti al’algio (shrimp) appetizer and it was amazing. Lots of garlic slices but it wasn’t hot garlic. Rich wine and butter sauce and well made shrimp. We were dipping our bread in the sauce so we could enjoy more of it. Then we had Godfather and Mafiosa with their handmade pasta upgrade. So very good. Pasta was cooked just right. The sauces are delicious. The hidden burrata in Godfather is a wonderful treat. The Chianti Classico was a great accompaniment with the pasta. We were well satisfied so skipped dessert. We may return tomorrow night for meat-based entrees.Parking: If you park on the street don’t park in the permit only areas.Wheelchair accessibility: No steps so should be fine for wheelchairs.“

“Visited recently and service was exceptional, waitstaff was incredibly friendly, helpful, & professional (our main server was Emilio, but everyone was wondeful). Ambiance was excellent as well; due to the timing of our meal (dinner, starting around 6PM and lasting several hours, given the tasting menu) we were there when they opened the curtains, which was lovely. The food was great as well, as with most tasting menus, not everything was to my taste, but my dining companions were entranced with everything. They were also very generous with the wine pairings. Was my third visit and will certainly be back in the future!“

“Cozy and welcoming, with tasty food and friendly staff. :) I enjoyed the vegetarian ratatouille entree! The server said they are allergen friendly, too, and they have vegan and gluten free options. :)Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian and vegan options. I enjoyed the vegetarian ratatouille! It was unique; I hadn't had a dish like it before, and that was fun. :)“

“I had an iced mocha to drink. It tasted great! To eat, I had the biscuits and gravy with eggs. The gravy was excellent, and so were the biscuits. The eggs were just a little under seasoned, but were other wise great. Staff were very friendly. It did take about 5-10 minutes to be seated though. They should hire a little extra help.“

“Solid spot for brunch in Los Gatos! They have both indoor and outdoor patio dining. The outdoor dining area has heat lamps, and they'll open up the awning when it gets too sunny out! I got the Crab Souffle Omelette, and I really enjoyed it! The omelette itself was huge! I was impressed with just how fluffy it was--way better than an ordinary omelette! The Crab Souffle omelette is filled with crab, avocado, tomato, mushrooms, and topped with hollandaise sauce. All of the souffle omelettes come with a bakery item and herb potatoes and grits. I love that you can get a specialty bakery item like their carrot walnut bread or raspberry coffee cake in addition to their selection of breads/English muffin/bagel. You can even add their cinnamon roll, but it will cost you an extra $5. I recommend getting their carrot walnut bread! It's tasty--a little savory and a little sweet--with a great combination of textures. I tried some of the raspberry coffee cake but did not like it as much. I would also recommend getting the herb potatoes instead of the grits. The herb potatoes were quite yummy! We were expecting the grits to be like cheesy grits or shrimp and grits (something with flavor) but these ended up just being plain grits. So unless that's what you're looking for, go with the potatoes! Service is pretty fast and efficient. Parking is street parking or park in one of the nearby public lots. There are a bunch of these in Downtown Los Gatos, so I've never had to walk too far!“

“Really did enjoy most of our dishes. The lamb shank was delicious. Meat just fell off tje bone. Special pork chop with polenta was also delicious. The gastrique was a bit too sweet but did not ruin the dish for us. Service was fast and efficient. They request your stay is 90 minutes, and we were out well before. It's not very relaxing as your dish is cleared the moment you finish, but would definitely go again for the food!“

“First time eating here. Overall very impressed by the food. We had the grilled cheese special, the biscuit sandwich, and the strawberry and beet salad. Very good flavors. And pleasantly surprised to find out that they do indeed have mimosas, was not expecting them to have any booze so, I can officially call it brunch!Will definitely be back, and now I’m extra sad that I missed the French versus Italian community night dinner.“

“Staff is always friendly and the food is great! Thank you“

“Back again, as this is a regular spot for my family and I. Once again food didn't disappoint. I got my go-to roll which is the warriors roll. Coconut and pineapple sauce is such a great combo and would highly recommend. This time I did try a new menu item: the tofu salad. It was a fairly big salad for an appetizer, but I was a little disappointed in the dressing. Might have just been base we got takeout, but I personally think the dressing was a little bland. I would still highly recommend this restaurant as there are so many other delicious items on the menu to meet anyone's sushi cravings!“

“Best cocktail bar in the South Bay!“

“Love this place! Always consistent with amazing food! I have been ordering the amazing salmon dish for many years and it is literally one of the best dishes around town. Great service too. Thank you for helping us celebrate our 22nd anniversary!“

“Great place for lunch date!!!At Namaste, the essence of India comes alive through a culinary journey that delights the senses. The warm and inviting ambiance, adorned with tasteful decor and rich colors, sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience. They have nice cozy patio for outdoor dining.Whether nestled indoors amidst cozy interiors or dining al fresco under the stars, Namaste offers the perfect backdrop for any occasion.However, it's the food that truly steals the show, with each dish showcasing the diverse and vibrant cuisine of India. From fragrant curries to Cajun prawns specialties, every bite is a masterpiece of flavor and creativity, crafted with the finest ingredients and culinary expertise.Combined with impeccable service, Namaste provides an experience that lingers in memory long after the meal is over.Vegetarian options: They have food for vegetarians too!Dietary restrictions: Food for allParking: Street parking. Some streets have 90mins free parking limit.Kid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“I'm new to the area, and maybe there are better places, but I have very little reason to find them. It's bar food, but it is done very well. The staff is friendly, I like that you control the ordering, the atmosphere is great and it seems to be welcoming for all. Check it out, let me know if I'm wrong.“

“Love their vegan donuts!!! They are one of the best vegan donuts I have ever had, and I have tried many a donut shop in search for a good vegan donut. The texture is great, like a cake donut. They are only available on the weekends, but worth stopping by.“

“Location: Located at the far end of downtown Los Gatos, this coffee shop is very easy to miss if you drive or even walk by. Free parking is available on the street and around the block.The storefront is nestled and hidden well by adjacent buildings so as you get closer, do look out for the signs.They have a great selection of coffee and snacks. I ordered the rose infused latte and was pleasantly surprised by the nice aroma of rose and the subtle yet appealing rose flavor. The drink was made well and absolutely recommend you try this if it's listed on the menu.They do have adequate space inside the store but also outside. The day was warm and pleasantly inviting to sit outside and tried it. You do have to put up with the noise from heavy vehicles passing through.“

“I go here for the movie theater. It's really great and reasonably priced. We tend to go Tuesdays when the price is only $5 for movies. "seniors" age 55 and up can also go on Mondays and Wednesdays for only $5 per ticket.Staff is always friendly and theaters have always been clean.“

“Absolutely best beef ribs in town falling off the bone , I highly recommend trying them and asking for a side of Mango Habanero sauce on the side , and don't forget to pair it with some English wings , amazing place and superb Staff , they make you feel like home , great upstairs bar as well and live music and events always going on, much love and keep up the amazing food and positive Vibes“

“Okay I am soooo serious when I say they have THE BEST super burritos here. I got the carne asada (steak). The meat was seasoned and cooked perfectly and the best part it had NO CHEWY fat gristle! The picture truly does it no justice. The amount of other toppings was harmony to the steak. The super comes with rice, beans, sour cream, guacamole, cheese and meat. I added pico de gallo bite to bite and boy it was just delicious. I am sad they only have two locations and both are in Scotts Valley. But I will say it's good enough to take the 45 minute drive.“

“Not a bad spot. The Pad Khee Mao with beef was really good. The chicken satay was nice and there were a lot of veggies in the spicy rice. The yellow curry was ok but really watery which I'm not a fan of. Still, I would come back for the noodle dishes.“

“This is your classic breakfast and lunch Cafe. Family run, local favorite, and always busy!I had the breakfast enchiladas special, and it was very good! Egg and chorizo inside.Great staff to stay on top of things, and quick with the food. Always a favorite for me when I'm in town!“

“Tasty chile rellenos with rice and beans. Very nice taco and enchilada. So cheesy! We were expecting salty or oily but we got neither so it was great. You can set up your thick tortilla chips with pico de gallo or a couple of other salsas. You order up front counter, pay and they bring your food to you.“

“My wife and I are long-time and very happy customers of Taba Taba in Los Gatos. The food is delicious, prices are good, and the service is first-rate. if you’re looking for great Chinese food in downtown Los Gatos, check out Taba Taba. You‘ll be glad you did!“

“Was trying to get some early drinks on a Friday afternoon in Los Gatos, most places weren't open yet, stumbled across Loma and decided to try it out. It's on a small side street and easy to miss, but look for the colorful chairs and maybe even some live music out front. Once you get inside, you order at the bar and take the a number to your table/seat. Good selection of craft beers and tasty. Good bar food (above average compared to most places). Will be back to try more beers!“

“Over 10 years I’ve been eating at this place. And I probably always will when in the area. The food this last time was fine overall (I had the corned beef) though the short French fries (there was no real hash) were dark and hard. And the bakery section did not have the good selection it used to have: first time I didn’t get a dessert. Other than that, it’s a great place.“

“Our party of 5 plus a dog (on the patio) celebrated a big birthday and all went extremely well. We brought our own champagne and cake and the restaurant was very accommodating. Our server Franchesco was outstanding. He anticipated our needs without our asking and had good recommendations. Food was very good and we left full and happy with our experience.“

“This place has the best food ever! Everything is so good here; if you ever don't know what to get, try the lunch specials, you'll get a little bit of everything The Orange chicken is hella bomb! They also have a house made chili, hella bomb too! The staff is really friendly, the restaurant is REALLY clean that you can eat off the table; I wouldn't recommend it but it's clean enough too“

“We had Thai Heart do a large take-out order for a joint 40th birthday party we were hosting. They did such an amazing job not only getting all the food prepared in time but packaged it in large catering trays in cardboard boxes for easy transportation. The food was delicious and in generous portions; it ended up being way more cost-effective than any catering companies we could find. Can't recommend them enough!“

“SC Bread Boy is a cheeseburger savant. The burgers were absolutely perfect. Chef Lance smashed them so beautifully that they came out with this gorgeous, lacy beef skirt and they're just oozing with cheese. The buns are squishy, the pickles are plentiful and crunchy, and the onions melt in your mouth.It was our first time, but I think the menu changes. This weekend, we got:The OG: DBL Patty, DBL Cheese, long cut Pickle, Onions, Burger SauceButter Burger: DBL Patty, DBL Cheese, whipped whole fat Sriracha butterMarket Salad: Red Butter lettuce, Winter citrus, Daikon, Parm, Red wine vin (the salad was just as well made as the burgers! it's a real treat. get it!)Tip: The fries have this extra crispy, craggy coating that make them extra delicious. So get your own fries. You won't want to share! We got extra burger sauce and homemade buttermilk ranch to dip them in.Humble Sea itself was 100% chill. People brought their dogs and their kids and the staff was super friendly. Hubby tried 3 beers and loved them all. He even bought a 4-pack. And I was super stoked to learn that they also serve cocktails and wine. The margarita I had was simple, but good.We will definitely be back because what's better than amazing burgers and beer on a cold, rainy night?“

“Excellent food and service.“

“Quality juices! My favorites are the classic green juice & classic orange juices. Great service, vibes, and quality products in the heart of Downtown Los Gatos. Street parking is available, but can be limited. You can park at several parking lots by the place and walk over as well. Can't wait to try their açaí bowls!“

“I love Sushi San. My husband and I go here for dates and special occasions. I love the decor - live plants and fish tanks to watch when conversation ebbs. The sushi tastes quality- served over ice and jicama. I'm addicted to their nabeyaki udon in winter. And the owner June is just the sweetest. We're lucky to have this place in Felton!“

“The shop itself is so cute and there are so many delicious looking cupcakes, cakes, cookies and pies! I ordered the banana cake for my husband's birthday which turned out great. It's almost like a banana bread with frosting.There is parking behind the shop specifically for icing on the cake customers.Parking: Right behind the shop“

“This is such a hidden gem!All the food I've had there is delicious from the tacos to the crazy pineapple - it's SO good with the seafood sauteed with pineapple just like I had in Mexico.On Fridays they have a mariachi band come in and play and initially I was kind of anxious but it quickly became clear that the musicians were there because this was an opportunity to have fun! They made it clear that we didn't have to pay to get serenaded or play a song but they were so fun that we ended up staying long after we were done eating. Passion project or not, we still ended up leaving the mariachis a tip with the wait staff lol“

“Love the honey walnut shrimp and the pork fried rice was very flavorful. I would also recommend the chow mein. The waiters were polite, I went on a date here so the ambience was decent enough to take someone out or even have a business meeting“

“Ordered a large mushroom pizza w olives to go after having an IPA inside. The pie was not that bad but it’s not Pizza My Heart either. They have Stella and an IPA on tab which would bring me back for their daily pizza specials. It only makes sense to order the Special pie of the day.“

“This place was good and I mean like really good food. I'm giving it a four because I think it would be more appropriate to call it a "lounge", not a tavern. Everything is highfalutin, which accompanies the prices. A tavern should be cheap, mainly serve beer, and probably have a pub food list. Again, this fits the stereotypical image that wants to be painted in this part of CA.“

“We were celebrating our anniversary that evening and were surprised with a custom Prix fixe menu that included "Happy Anniversary Wendy & Tod' at the top. The service and food was impeccable with great ambiance. Would definitely go back! The only wrinkle was the reservation had stated the dress code as "business casual"; however, several people came in with jeans, shorts, t-shirts and ball caps. For such a nice steakhouse in Los Gatos, I would have expected them to adhere to their own dress code.“

“Such a great quirky little spot with incredible food. They even had a kids area to hang out!We got the chicken and waffles and an omelete.The waffles were crispy with cinnamon sugar and butter and the chicken was flavorful. With a side of warm maple syrup and sausage gravy it was perfect.The omelete was nice and flavorful. The home fries were so crispy and soft. And the side of biscuits and gravy were perfect.Kid-friendliness: There was kids play area out back!“

“Stumbled upon and had lunch at this little gem in Los Gatos. The crew and chef listened to my food mood and suggested and prepared a delicious and beautiful artichoke, caper flatbread, paired with the pickle plate! OMG super yummy!!Their complimentary olive oil and vinegar tasting room and wine bar, where they made me a sparkly virgin cocktail, is all about friendly, cozy, good vibes.Very chill and comfortable and I hear they also host private parties! I will definitely be back to sit out back! Oh yeah, and they’re also remote-work friendly, offering WiFi!Taking home a couple bottles, some guava jam and a full and happy belly!! Winning!!!“

“My friend hosted her bridal shower here, and the service was impeccable. They decorated the room and provided a delicious motley of drinks and food. The waitresses would also be helpful and consistently check in throughout the event. I got the iced latte, lychee mimosa, stuffed mushrooms, margarita pizza, italian wedding soup, the tagliatelle with truffle cream sauce, and a nonalcoholic frosé. Everything (esp the stuffed mushrooms and tagliatelle) was fantastic.“

“We ordered the Garlic Bread, yummy herby and topped with cheese and marinara was yummy! We ordered a Large pizza with white sauce (Ricotta cheese) pepperoni and pineapple. The ricotta cheese was smooth and delicious and the pepperoni was the perfectly saviry to go with the sweet pineapple. The ranch, I'm guessing in house was yummy! The vibe of this place was chill, and the lighting really set the feel and mood. Staff was lovely and the food was great! Thanks for the food, I'll be back!Vegetarian options: Salads, garlic bread, pizza toppings YUMParking: Behind and In front. Out back is for pizza only after 4pm.“

“The Pad Thai is so delicious! They serve in a large portion which is satisfying. The atmosphere is unlike most Asian restaurants and is quiet, soft and easy. I instantly fell into this Thai fusion restaurant. They also have various options for vegetarian dishes.The interior design is elegant and beautiful. The service is really nice as well. I can see why this place is popular in the town“

“This location is fantastic. Because:- the food is awesome!- and the service is amazing too!Loved making mini plates from the salad sampler, and dip sampler plates.Favorites: classic hummus, chunky eggplant, and the pita bread!!!Vegetarian options: They have vegetarian plant based lamb dishes too! Haven’t tried it. But just telling… the hummus is to die for…“
