50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Claremont

“A Hidden Gem That Feels Like the French Quarter Itself! From the moment we stepped into The Quarter in Claremont, it was like being whisked straight to New Orleans. The atmosphere was electric — the scent of Creole spices in the air, the soft hum of conversation mingled with jazz playing in the background, and the decor that looked plucked right out of the French Quarter. I half-expected to walk outside and find a brass band on the corner! We started with the soft-shelled crab and grits, perfectly crisp and full of Southern comfort. The fried catfish topped with crawfish étouffée was rich, flavorful, and absolutely indulgent — pure Louisiana soul on a plate. The roasted catfish with lump crab was delicate yet decadent, each bite melting in your mouth. Even the bread and butter were unforgettable — the sweet Creole butter was so good we could’ve made a meal out of it alone. Our bourbon cocktails were spot-on — smooth, balanced, and crafted with care — and we finished with the bread pudding drizzled in warm bourbon sauce, which was heavenly. Every dish was layered with flavor and heart. A special shoutout to José, our server, who was not only attentive and friendly but truly made us feel like family. His recommendations were perfect! We live three and a half hours away, but honestly, I’d make the drive again just for a date night here. It’s that good. The Quarter doesn’t just serve food — it serves an experience.“

“Good service and good food“

“I'm still here while I'm writing this.......

Y'all this food is TOO DANG DELICIOUS! RUN, DONT WALK HERE. RUN HERE!!! And the prices are reasonable! The workers were friendly, and the ambiance was a positive vibe. I will definitely be back here again!!!“

“Thanks Guys for the food it is a fun time I will come back on next Friday to get the chicken n fries and mushroom pizza when I’ll see you guys soon.“

“Friendly owner and workers plus delicious pastries. What more could you ask for?“

“Scrumptious, moist, and irresistible describes the cake I ordered from Some Crust for my mother’s memorial service reception. The cake was impeccably crafted and the designers decorated it in exactly the manner in which we requested, “Not too much.” The frosting was strikingly smooth and the piping adorned only the bottom of the cake, ensuring the decoration was not too much. The colors of the yellow and red roses and the green leaves on top of the cake were tastefully muted and maintained the minimal emphasis of the decorations. It was a spice cake in which all the flavors blended perfectly without one flavor standing out too predominantly. It was delivered exactly at the time it was scheduled to arrive at the location. I highly recommend this bakery when you have an occasion that requires a specialty cake.“

“Every time I walk into Dr. Grubb’s, I’m reminded why it remains one of the Village’s most reliable casual dining spots. The restaurant strikes a balance between quick-service convenience and a warm, modern atmosphere, creating a space that feels both efficient and inviting. The wooden countertops, purple LED lighting, and clean, industrial seating give it a contemporary California-fresh identity that aligns perfectly with their customizable bowls and grilled plates. Even during busier hours, the layout makes the experience feel open and easy to navigate.“

“If I could give this place 10 stars out of five I would, I've been eating here for years and it's just as good every time.

“It's 10pm, you're hungry and nowhere else is open for some pho... so I found this place and without even looking at photos I went over, and what an insane surprise, rave + pho??? Who would have thought, such a cool combo!

It was filled with strobes and some fog, made a really cool night vibe inside the restaurant, especially since I didn't know what to expect.

It wasn't long before I got seated, and the menu is very straight forward. I got ribeye pho and bahn mi, the sandwich was big, definitely not a small size you could split it if you really wanted. But it was flavorful! The broth of the pho was heavenly, and it came with so many noodles and meat, they don't skip out on everything here and you’re not going to finish everything with 90% of the broth left. Good vibes, good food, and a late night party theme“

“You can always get a great beverage and meal at The back Abbey.“

“great place to have drinks and relax“

“Chefs are amazing and the wine choices are amazing“

“The best italian restaurant“

“Loved the breakfast bowl!“

“recognizable dessert spots, known for its nostalgic charm and fully customized frozen yogurt experience. Walking inside feels like stepping into a retro dessert lab bright mix-in stations, handwritten menus, and rows of toppings that instantly pull you back to the comfort of early 2000s frozen yogurt culture. Despite its casual layout, everything is extremely intentional: the granite countertops, glass display cases, and vibrant red accents create a warm, energetic atmosphere where creativity and comfort blend seamlessly. What makes 21 Choices stand out is the way each order is prepared fresh on the spot, with staff folding in your toppings by hand and mixing your signature flavor like a craft dessert.“

“Great food but a very busy place and sometimes the wait can be tough, especially when you are hungry.“

“New place with lots of interesting “toasts.” It’s boisterous and friendly. Perfect place to grab breakfast or lunch to go. There is some seating and it’s very casual. Food served in to-go containers.“

“They have real glass coffee cups to use on premises.“

“I wouldn’t say it was Mexican food! I had grilled shrimp and rice with mushrooms and sautéed vegetables! Everything was so good!!“

“I'm a pregnant mom and trying to spontaneously induce my labor this place has awesome date and the way they dress up the fruit bowels you barely taste the dates I highly recommend“

“These were seriously the most delicious crepes 🤤! My husband had the most popular one, Nutella, strawberries 🍓, and banana 🍌 and I went with the build-your-own: sweet cream cheese, banana 🍌, and caramel. Totally satisfied my sweet tooth 🦷! If you’re craving something amazing, definitely check them out and support a small business ❤️✨“

“Cute breakfast and coffee spot in Claremont village. There is an outdoor table but if that is taken there is a ton of small shaded parks with nice seating nearby. I grabbed a table out front of city hall a half block away. The service is awesome, she came outside to take my order and payment since I had my dog with me. My egg and cheese and onion breakfast bagel was tasty.“

“What kind of say about anyone choices? It has so many great options for our family. I am more into the sweet side so I love getting my peanut butter and chocolate. My wife is more on the delegate. It doesn’t like her stuff sweet so we get a yogurt based vanilla option for her like I said there’s plenty of options for everyone picky, eaters or not everyone has something to pick“

“I used to frequent the Claremont location, was pretty excited not to drive all the way To Claremont. First disappointment, this place doesn’t just sell the only meat, either a pita sandwich or a plate, which I need since I made my own sides. Second disappointment after order something I wanted since you don’t sell just the meat, my order was so over cooked and dry, the cooked seems to and extra sauce to make moist again- pretty disappointed. The service was great, just the quality of food was horrible.“

“I've been going to Viva Madrid since about 2008 and I always get a variety of their tapas. Many of the same ones every time. I've introduced this restaurant to more then 20+ people who now take their friends and families. The food is delicious but lately I'm having to ask for extra sauce on the chicken empanada (which is my favorite) and the spicy potatoes. If you don't, half will be without sauce and will be dry. Also try their red Sangria. It's delicious.“

“food, drinks and staff are excellent!“

“I’ve been going to El Ranchero for over 20 years. The food is good and the portions are great. I almost always have leftovers to have lunch the next day.“

“A very cute crepe restaurant in Claremont with an interior that may resemble the streets of Paris. But of course, you go here for the food. And the food is great! The crepes are very flavorful and the fillings are great. A little on the pricier side, but great food regardless. Check them out!“

“Me and my son went for dinner!! It was our 1st time, we absolutely loved it!!! My husband and I always walk by, but had never been. The next time, I'm taking him inside to eat, he would love it!!
I had the Spicy Miso Soup and my son had the vegetable Miso soup and we had the Kanage chicken, Japanese style fried chicken and the pot stickers. Everything was very good!! Can't wait to go back! Our server, He was great and very friendly.“

“Love the family style dining ❤️Great spot for celebrations“

“Love the coffee, great food, and ambiance“

“This was my first time going to Dog Haus and it was a great Friday night! They have quite an extensive menu of beers and dogs/sausages. They also had a whole breakfast burrito menu and sides such as tots, fries, and onion rings. If you're not into beer they also have cocktails available. The set up is you order at the bar as soon as you walk in and then they bring it out to your table. I got the downtown dog, a blonde beer, and an order of the chili tots with cole slaw on top. It was all very tasty and the perfect salty bar food to go with my beer. Later on in the night I also got a strawberry vodka drink that was very tasty. My hot dog was a take on LA street dogs. The bun was soft and the dog was juicy. It had bacon bits, Ketchup, mustard, mayo, peppers, and onions. The space itself has a variety of seating options including long communal tables which is great if you're wanting to gather with a lot of people. The ordering at the bar makes it convenient to not have to split tabs at the end of a meal. All the ppl working were friendly and helpful when I had questions about the beers and menu. The outdoor patio was great and has corn hole, a oversized connect 4, and TVs for game day viewing. They also had very reasonable prices! I saw a couple of parents with their kids, a group of guys gathering , and a couple on a date. It's a very versatile space. They even had space heaters for the patio! I will definitely be back as they had so many menu items I wanted to try!

Side note I found out that they are under new ownership. I didn't have anything but a great experience.“

“I’ve come here three times, and it’s never been disappointing!
They have a variety of healthy sandwiches, and I love their fresh, seasoned grilled chicken.
They use simple ingredients to turn them into a delicious mix.
The servers are so polite and nice.“

“Bua Thai Cuisine is an absolute gem! We ordered the Thai spring rolls, apple salad, stuffed mushrooms, chicken phad Thai, and the combination phad see ew — and every single dish was bursting with authentic flavor and made with the freshest ingredients. The attention to detail in the seasoning and presentation really stood out — you can taste the care in every bite.

The service was top-notch — friendly, attentive, and quick without ever feeling rushed. The ambiance is warm, cozy, and family-oriented, making it the perfect place for a relaxing dinner or casual get-together.

It’s rare to find a restaurant that nails every aspect — food, service, and atmosphere — but Bua Thai Cuisine truly does. Highly recommend to anyone looking for delicious, authentic Thai food in Claremont!“
