50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Burlingame

“extremely bad tasting food and bizzare combinations....miffed at kichadi like biryani with no flavour and being served with aam ka achar....god knows how this restaurant got Michelin star rating ....Shame on the chefs and the owners for ripping off the customers with overpricing of the food for poor service, absence of any ambience or decor“

“This has become my go to place. They are always consistent with taste of food and their staff's service. I am always greeted with smile and food is delicious. Fairly priced, good portion.
I love the ginger lemonade and the burmese noodles.“

“Convenient location from the SFO airport. Nori roll with the “tuna pate” was really delicious Blueberry banana smoothie was also great, made with their homemade almond milk. I was warned beforehand which items contained honey (I believe it is mostly the desserts that have honey). Updated from previous review on 2025-04-10“

“Fantastic flavors and presentations at Twelvemonth! We went for a family dinner on a Friday night and the place was hopping. Every dish was really quite tasty, especially the tamales. Good cocktail and mocktail menu, and good selection of wines and beers.

The space is beautiful too, with high ceilings, lots of space, and a gorgeous outside area with tons of seating.

The entire menu is plant-based and vegan, which made the vegans amongst us ecstatic of course. But then the omnivores were happy too because it's just really tasty food!

Can't wait to try the prix fix tasting menu, but one of us didn't want it, and it requires full table participation. Next time then.“

“It was fun going during the soft opening of Palmetto Superfoods in Burlingame (there are other locations in the Metreon, on Union Street, and on Clement Street in San Francisco, with another planned for Santana Row). I learned a lot by speaking with the super friendly and deservedly-proud owner. This location in Burlingame is a really cool little spot diagonally across from Safeway and has a sweet public rooftop sitting area. And I love that everything is plant-based except the honey and bee pollen, but they have a vegan apple honey — which is absolutely delicious — as a superior substitute. Anyway, with a choice of bowls (and smoothies), one could choose a set one on the menu or customize everything with unlimited bases and toppings — as long as it fits in whatever size bowl you choose (yup, I totally went large). I opted for the Bay Blend, but swapped out the strawberries (not really my thing) for toasted coconut flakes (most definitely my thing). The bowl was quickly layered by the friendly employee, who looked like she was excited for her next opportunity to surf, at least in my imagination. From the açaí, pitaya/dragonfruit, and chia pudding on the bottom to the banana and almond butter in the middle to the granola, blueberries, and toasted coconut, etc. on top, it was scrumptious and satisfying. Wanting to try a little more deliciousness, I decided to take a Midnight Beach smoothie to go. Now that I’m gone, I know I’ll be back!“

“Taste so good~“

“The food was excellent, the atmosphere is casual with lots of seating and nice decor. I got the mixed Gyro plate with chicken and beef. The meat is flavorful and the salad is fresh. Comes with fresh pita, hummus and paprika sauce, with hot sauce at the table. The servers gave us a free slice of baklava drenched in honey and pistachios, and hot tea. Would eat here again!“

“Delicious food, super friendly service. A little slower than a typical restaurant, but that’s because everything is made to order and not sitting around in a pan waiting to be served. The food was amazing, and so pretty!“

“Great coffee, friendly service, good for plane spotting!“

“First time here. Really enjoyed the food and atmosphere.“

“This is a hole in the wall gem!

Super cozy small shop ran by a local couple. The prices are super cheap and the Chai is delicious! I think it's a house blend. It's a bit sweet but the spices are on point! Highly recommend. 10/10“

“It was not our first time here , it’s one of those places where u wanna go on the weekends cuz easy working n most importantly, not too pricey and food is good for the prices.
I got two lunch ramen , and was able to ask to swap out the rice for more salads
Def will go back with my children.
It’s a cozy little restaurant, it’s a place for u to eat finish n go place.

Parking: Street parking was easy on a Sunday lunch time

Kid-friendliness: They were able to provide forks , kids tableware , but no stroller“

“Family operated business establishments are always the best!! Food is superb!! Price is competitive!“

“Came here yesterday for iftar to break our fast, they gave us some dates to start with water, and made sure our food would be ready at iftar time. They are family owned, friendly people and delicious red lentil soup.

Would come again :)

Vegetarian options: Red lentil soup (shorba)“

“Cutie little dinner, the service was really amazing! I had chicken and waffle it was really delicious unfortunately the batter is a little sweet which I’m not a fan of. The country steak was yummy 😋 hot chocolate was perfect!
I can say that I would come back to try other things in the menu!“

“Wonderful “white table cloth” bistro experience.“

“In the heart ♥️ of the beautiful downtown of Culver City Salt & Straw Is there waiting for you to go and taste they’re vegan ice cream 🍦 with fresh waffle cones 😋yummy . The place is nice,clean ,friendly staff and you get one hour free parking“

“I’m obsessed with this place. The food is so so amazing. I love that they have a display of the food so you can see what you order. I’ve tried salads, omelettes and pancakes all 10/10. The iced coffee is really good and the fresh juices you can taste the real ingredients. The staff is young and friendly. Best vibe sitting outside by the sun. I look forward to coming back here when i’m in the area“

“I had to stop by Royal Donut Cafe because of all of the great reviews I saw on Yelp! And I must say that I wasn't disappointed at all! The staff was awesome! From the cashier, to the cooks, and the server. And I even got a chance to meet the owner, Terri, who has taken over the business for the past 15 years! Definitely going to be a regular here! I ordered the vegetarian omelet! 😋“

“Fast friendly service and excellent food. It’s and enjoyable experience each time.“

“Yan gon is a family own Burmese restaurant on broadway Burlingame. The owner and the entire staff were extremely friendly , attentive , courteous . helpful, and welcoming . Their dishes are delicious . I have tried their Burmese Style Curry Lamb , Singapore Street noodles, Deep fried Chicken Wings , and Wor Wonton Soup. All four dishes were delicious, but my favorite is the won ton soup . This soup is perfect , it's so healthy and brothy. The broth is so rich that left a long lasting mouthwatering and coating sensation lingering in my tongue. The wontons are so tasty , juicy , and flavorful with the right amount of , I believe was pork , ginger , garlic ,chopped onions , sugar, salt , pepper , and shrimps . . The shrimps were very tastey and fresh . It didn't have that strange scent of ammonia or fishy smell like spoiled shrimps . The restaurant is simple , bright , clean , casual ambience with ample seatings. I have been here many times and got seated right away. No wait . This restaurant is a must try if you have the craving for Burmese food or just want to try something new.“

“Great food and love the outside seating. so quant and cozy. Chinese chicken salad is delicious. very friendly staff. I only wish they had the nutrition info next to the items on the menu for those of is that like to keep track.“

“BG is a gorgeous restaurant, with well prepared food, and live music/jazz, most days of the week. Owners are very personable and hands-on, which is rare, amongst restaurants. Great place for special occasions or just a night out with your favorite person/people. Share a great experience, without a shocking price tag!“

“Good food and fast service!“

“All is good Food and Service“

“The people that work here are super friendly and hospitable. They knew me by name after the first visit and were extremely accommodating, even when ordering food like 15 min to closing. The food is also very good. We picked up food from here 3x in one week. ? The "mild" is definitely more like white people medium, but the flavor is very good. The stand out dishes we've had so far are the masala fries, butter chicken, and chicken biryani. It's also a good amount of food for the price in my opinion. Highly recommend this place!“

“The restaurant is located inside a plaza and there are a lot of parking spaces. We arrived there right after 6:00pm, and there were a few people waiting inside. After I put my name on the waitlist, we were able to get our table very quickly. We ordered the Sliced Beef & Ox Tripe in Chili Oil, Cucumber Salad, Chicken & Corn Dumpling in Chili Oil, Napa Cabbage & Pork Potstickers, Pork Xiao Long Bao, and Iced Assam Milk Tea. They served the food pretty quickly and all the staff were friendly. Those dumplings were freshly made by the chef because you could see the back with an open kitchen and watch them making all the dumplings. Dumplings and Xiao Long Bao tasted pretty good except the sliced beef and ox tripe and the drink was just ok. Highly recommended for the dumplings and Xiao Long Bao :)“

“Amazing poke’ ! Incredible service! Awesome owners! Cool Asian sparkling water flavors! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“This meal, which just happened to fall on Valentine's Day, was a lovely beginning to our trip which started with a flight out of SFO. Fortunately I had thought to make a reservation or we never would have gotten in. The service was warm, the atmosphere was cozy and not too dressy, and the food and wine were great. I especially enjoyed my risotto with scallops; while the scallops were small, they were tender and there were plenty of them. We will definitely keep this restaurant in mind when we visit the area in the future.“

“Awesome shakes and heavenly garlic fries 👍“

“Italian fire wood chicken and margarita pizza“

“Looking for something different after our cruise. Centro definitely hit the spot!! Everything was delicious. Great atmosphere and awesome playlist!“

“I’m Thai and my family was in the restaurant business so I know Thai food. Our group of over 10 people dined here today. Food was great. It was a team event so we requested a prix fixe menu and budget control. The restaurant was very responsive and go above and beyond to help us with the arrangements. The menu options was good. We had some vegans in the group and vegan options were good too. Everyone in my team loved it. Thank you for a wonderful evening!“

“EDIT: Went back once more for a second chance and I’m glad i did. Got a different sub (roast beef) and it was made well. Tried again and got the chicken and it was great. My first visit was definitely a mistake but the following visits more than made up for it.

The person making my order misheard me several times. The sub I opened up when I got home was not even close to what I wanted. The bread was completely soaked through and it had items I didn’t ask for. I couldn’t imagine anyone wanting this much liquid on a sub. I’d like to say they gave me the wrong order but I don’t think that’s the case. Please make sure there is no communication errors before leaving the store. $20 down the drain.“

“Delicious food, great atmosphere, great service! I've tried the Premium Ox bone noodle soup, bibimbap, jjajangmyeon, kimbap, and tteokbokki, and all are absolutely delicious! In fact, the tteokbokki is some of the best I've tried. I live out of town, but I will go back here every time I visit here.“

“Great food !! Will be back again for sure. ��“

“We door dashed to a local hotel, rec'd wrong pizza. I contact them, they fixed the mistake. I would use them again.“

“Very clean inside, friendly staff and comfortable seating. (Outdoor as well) The food was fresh and perfectly prepared. We really enjoyed our appetizer and dinner plate that we shared. It was so nice out and the windows were open. Just a lovely, relaxing dinner without spending tons of money.“

“A fantastic brunch spot offering a fresh house salad, tasty omelet, and a delightful garden crepe. The Bloody Mary is perfectly crafted, and the staff is welcoming. Indoor ambiance and the outdoor seating with great views make it a must-visit.“

“Food was great. Service was excellent even the restaurant was packed at height of dinner. Great food!“

“Whether you love savory or sweet baked goods, this all vegan spot is a must! Off the charts, crazy good! We went to town with the pepper bun, scallion scone, and twelve month rolls for savory. Then we got the cinnamon roll, citrus scone, and almond croissant for sweet. They boxed them separately, and omg they are all so good!“

“Excellent food and service and atmosphere“

“Great food and service was excellent. I would go back there again“

“Great service, delicious food.“

“Always fresh and fantastic! The guys who work there are always friendly and nice, as well!“

“Wonderful service, DELICIOUS food and the best views! I was so glad my company put me in the area. I had the exotic cocktail (which was one of the best drinks I’ve had in a while), The calamari which they also put fried artichoke in it *chefs kiss* and those sauces!!! My goodness the SAUCES separate or together my taste buds were very happy. Last but never least the lobster bisque…. I about picked up the bowl and licked it clean…. Perfectly seasoned, buttery, creamy, mmm mmm mmm!! I can’t wait to come back…after your meal you can walk it off with the 360 views of just beautiful scenery“

“I moved to Burlingame in 2020 and found Fuumi as I was walking down Broadway. It quickly became a favorite with great quality sushi from a very friendly and efficient team.

Over the past 4 years I've probably had more than 50 meals from Fuumi and they've never put a foot wrong with my order and it's always been delicious.

Sadly I've now moved out of state so my Fuumi habit has ended... But to quote Douglas Adams, "so long and thanks for all the fish!"“

“Quality food everyone should give them a try ���“

“We came here after visiting Washington Park with 6 people on a Sunday afternoon. It was hot and we wanted something small and quick to eat and drink while the niners game was on. We originally wanted to sit at the bar but since we had a larger group we opted to sit at a table. We got a round of shots and a Prickly Pear Margarita that was really good. We got the signature French fries flight (truffle, rosemary garlic, bbq) served with herb ranch, chipotle mayo, and ketchup. We also got the Chicken Wing flight (Buffalo, salt n pepper, honey habanero) that came with 9 total wings. And we got a chicken fettuccine Alfredo. It was a good little snack for all of us, service was great. There was air conditioning, but there was a quick black out during the game but it came on pretty quickly! There’s street parking and some lots nearby.“

“Fantastic food and good prices Excellent service“
