50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Cupertino

“My daughter and I really enjoy the ramen.“

“The best Brazilian steakhouse in the South Bay, hands down. The service is ultra attentive. If you want a meat that you missed, the waiter will be sure to have a fresh skewer come to you as soon as possible. When you leave to go to the salad bar, the waiter folds up your napkin and puts it on a fresh small plate. Oh, and their salad bar is basically a meat bar as well. Get the candied bacon from the salad bar, it's amazing. The entremets are the best around. Start with the warm cheese filled bread poppers. The Cinnamon brazed pineapple is beyond amazing. The warm cheese with fresh honey is where it's at. For the main course, the meat, it's the highest quality compared to all the other Brazilian joints around town. I only minus one star from ambiance due to the high speed traffic of the meat servers moving table to table. The trick is to never get up from your chair as you consume copious amounts of meat. All in all, I highly recommend this place for fulfilling your lust for meats.“

“3 people less than $100, large portions“

“Good service was good, and very helpful. Accidentally mixed up my food but were willing to remake it.“

“The most memorable: 1) fresh garlic in a bowl on each table for self serve! Super authentic chinese northerners way of eating noodles!! I love it. 2) the texture of size 2 (second thinnest) is mind blowing good for someone like their noodles Al dente. Don’t get the most thinnest in noodle soup unless you like super soggy mushy texure.“

“Been coming here since they opened. Lemon slices with water is awesome but I do have one complaint is the recent change to their chicken sumac recipe changed and my kids can’t eat the new saltier and spiced up recipe. Even the chicken shawarma is kind of spicy now and unable to feed to children. I hope you can fix this.“

“Rio Adobe takes their salsa seriously, with a variety of fresh salsas at the salsa bar. The unique plates were particularly good, like the Hopi Blue Corn Enchiladas, a vegetarian dish that balanced sweet corn kernels with tart tomatillo sauce and a flavorful tortilla. Portions were generous, and the beans, rice, and guacamole on platter dishes were great. Also has a few bottled beers and Mexican sodas to choose from.“

“First time here. The burgers were amazing!“

“Pad see ew was Delicious . Pad Thai was great, egg rolls was perfect Definitely will order again“

“Best ramen EVER ❤️ The tonkotsu is my all time favorite hands down!“

“I love this Philz location because there are a ton of food options around it. The wifi is always solid and the baristas are very friendly.

I also like the floor to ceiling windows/doors that are open during the spring and summer 👏🥰

The only thing I wish is that Philz overall would bring back gluten free options. A woman can dream.“

“We dined at their SM North Edsa branch. Good food. 👌 Crews were accommodating. 💯“

“a nice casual bar and restaurant. the food is delicious and the service is good.“

“Our family’s all time favorite restaurant in the Bay Area… genuinely good foods worth of every penny 👍🏻“

“I dined at Alexander's when it was in a different location and remembered it being really good. This time it's not as great as I remembered. Service from Victor was amazing though. The steaks, they were cooked perfectly but underseasoned. We ordered a few appetizers and we didn't care for the short rib or the Jamon iberico with buratta. It was really fun when you get Cotton candy at the end. They're very accommodating especially if you're celebrating something.“

“Great foood. Great service. Will go back. First time visit.“

“The patio dining is a great option but I heard the bar calling. A seat presented itself as I approached and prompt, professional service enhanced every drop of beer, both before and after lunch.“

“Yummy sandwiches! Been here several times, tried a few things but so far the roasted chicken plus salami combo was the best. Wouldn’t have thought to put those together in a sammy but it was hella good. Of course, had to get it with Dutch crunch bread. “

“Great food and experience!“

“Love this place good place to eat“

“I came here a few years ago and thought it was good. Recently came again and their roll meat to rice portions are not great, I prefer rolls with more fish/meat. The sashimi was fresh with good portions so maybe their nigiri is more worth here“

“Traditional Taiwanese restaurant in an unassuming venue, serving up a lot of delicious classic dishes. Fast and efficient service, but some of the sizzling platter dishes seem to use the same sauce with different proteins. Small parking lot, so need to look for some street parking.

Parking: Very small parking lot“

“We were served hot and delicious Pizza at our table by a very pleasant member of the team. We usually order take out, but decided to dine-in that night. We are long time and frequent customers of the Cupertino location of Curry Pizza House and we especially love their Achari Gobi Pizza and their Chilli Paneer pizza.“

“Philz is always great and friendly. Unlike other coffee shops in the area, plenty of large tables for working are available. Many have outlets. The music is always great and I regularly Shazam songs playing on the speakers. The back (street facing) patio has a nice set of tables if you like to work outside.“

“Our family loves Chicken Meets Rice. Such a delicious comfort food. Great service always!

Kid-friendliness: Kid-friendly menu.

Wheelchair accessibility: It’s a food hall with automated big doors so it has wheelchair accessibility.“

“A total gem! A beautifully designed space with great food and genuinely thoughtful service! Highly recommend!“

“It’s a small, cute Asian style Cafe in Cupertino. The cafe itself is quite small with some seating inside the cafe, but the real gem is the seating outdoors, which can be really nice on a sunny day. You can order via a kiosk and then grab your order from the counter. I had the coffee with Boba and coconut jelly and it was pretty good. My friend had the hazelnut tea, and she did not like it. You can customise your level of sweetness as well as Ice, which is great. The Boba came pretty quickly in less than five minutes which is impressive because there were a lot of people waiting for the orders. It’s a good place to get Boba, but nothing really stood out for me.“

“local business with great breakfast served.“

“This used to be my favorite noodle spot for years, thanks to its Hainan chicken noodle special and chicken rice plate. The dishes offered great value, and the soup, famously free of MSG, was a standout. For the price of a fast-food burger meal, you could enjoy a flavorful bowl of chicken noodles—an unbeatable deal.

Unfortunately, things have changed. Over the past six months, the quality of the chicken has noticeably declined. They’ve switched from ranch or cage-free chicken to a lower-quality alternative. The meat now has a mushy texture, barely surpassing that of Costco rotisserie chicken.

Even more disappointing is the addition of MSG to the soup base, which leaves you parched after finishing a bowl. While some might not mind, I don’t think my taste buds have changed—this isn’t the soup I once loved.

I’d recommend that Special Noodle Soup focus on preserving the quality of their signature dishes, even if it means raising prices. Compromising quality undermines the reputation they’ve built over the years.

I would like to hear your comments or it's just me getting older!!“

“Amazing HotPot highly recommended 👍“

“This restaurant catered the recent fund raiser for the Cupertino Historical society and the food WAS TO DIE FOR! The best food I’ve ever had at such an event. Standouts were the pineapple rice, the vegetable pastries the chicken satay the pad Thai and cooked chicken on a skewer the desserts were great too - little candied strawberries and tiny slices of an amazing cake. We are staff and we were just swooning over the tastes of everything. I want to take my mom to the restaurant now“

“This place is super yummy! We've ordered twice now and enjoyed everything. This time we got the chicken Milano pizza which is super flavorful and has lots of toppings. Also go the chicken Alfredo pasta for my daughter and it's good, albeit a little bland for adults but perfect for kids, and some chicken wings which were cooked well.

Last time we got a stromboli which was great, too.

Will definitely keep Via Mia in our take out rotation.

Everything is halal!

Dietary restrictions: Halal“

“My family has a mix of diets and this shop easily accommodates us all! The vegan cheese is great. I love it on the vegan channa masala pizza. The Italian style pizzas are good too. These aren’t award winning pies, but they’re tasty (as advertised), hot, and decent value for this area!“

“One bite everyone knows the rules…just had a baby and craved a large slice and these guys were so nice and the pizza tasted great. It was late and they still had the slices I wanted. Since I just moved down the street I’ll be back a lot“

“XLB is a favorite local spot among locals kin the San Jose/Cupertino area. We like to order the Mongolian Beef, Chicken Fried Rice, and Pork XLB Dumplings. Today, we tried out the Dan-Dan noodles. The food tasted like authentic cuisine, including a pot of complimentary green tea.

It is a bit on the pricier side, though it feels like the quality of food is just about worth it.“

“Very nice atmosphere and food!“

“Love this place. The freeze is my favorite!“

“The Service: The owner herself was behind the counter preparing the orders. Totally a hands-on operator. She is very passionate about her store. She interacts with the customers & asks for feedback. Excellent customer service! The Dessert: I won't call these "beverages"? To me, they are totally "desserts"!! Look how colorful they are and beautifully plated. Perfect desserts for the summer~ They use real fresh fruits. Every sip I taste the real fruit, crystal jelly & other surprises. They are like dancing in my mouth, lots of different texture! They are not overly sweet. I just love the sweetness from those fresh fruits. They are vegan, gluten free, low sugar & low calories. 100% guilt-free dessert! I can't wait to go back & try other flavors. The Parking: Plaza parking lot, both ground floor & underground parking (free!)“

“Delicious sandwich, good attention, very clean.“

“I appreciate the they maintained high quality of sashimi, freshness of fish and beautiful cut according to the nature of the fish.“

“Ambiance ✅️ Food ✅️ Service ✅️“

“炸物、餐點都很有水準，非常有台灣味！極力推薦“

“Rice rolls had thin rice wrappers, which were nice but they were not "smooth" in texture so I did not enjoy them as much as I could've. But the shrimp was juicy, and the donut was crispy and the sauce for the rice roll was nice.
Siumai was good but a small portion. (4 bite pieces for $6.) We got the black chicken and pork soup as it seemed healthy but did not feel like it was worth ordering again. The chicken feet were yummy but I didn't know why they cut the feet in half. We also got the daikon cake with XO sauce, it is a bit spicy but I like that they pan fried it so it is crispy.
My favorite item was the milk pudding.
We did not try any porridge. I would not mind coming back here for more rice rolls and milk pudding if we are in the area.“

“The nightclub next door has people smoking pot. The front door area totally smell of pot.“

“Indoor and outdoor dining. Great food, friendly service. Kimchee chige, bbq short ribs, ban chan and purple mixed grain rice was delicious. Plus the tofu is non GMO. 👍🏻“

“I was surprised by the large portion sizes. The waitress made great recommendations! Everything looks great, tastes great and this is a great go to spot I’ll go to whenever I am in town!“

“Have been coming here for years.

The food is always fantastic. The service is great. The owner Austin is the best.

I don't typically leave reviews, but Liang's is a favorite and a 5/5 across the board.“

“Our favorite weekly lunch spot! It’s fun and the sushi selection is great. Simple, no frills and the conveyor belt is super fun for the family to enjoy. If you come before opening, sign in on the iPad and you’ll get first seating or join the waitlist on the app. It’ll update you in ETA.“

“Delicious, adorable cheesy goodness! There are little kiosks if you want to order from a screen (very convenient, no waiting in line). However, both times I made customizations to get the cheesy bacon fries without bacon (I'm vegetarian) on the screen, they still put bacon on. I had to get a new cheesy fries dish which was fine, but they forgot about it so 20 min later I asked if they had my new baconless fries and they scrambled to make it. They were very nice and accommodating. The wait was a little inconvenient.“

“This was our first time at Azuma Sushi. My toddler niece loves having sushi with me for lunch, and her go-to is usually avocado rolls, miso soup, gyoza, and tempura, sometimes chicken teriyaki. We also ordered steak and scallop skewers which were pretty tiny. In addition, we ordered a sashimi assortment, unagi nigiri, and shrimp nigiri.

Overall, while the food was good, I wouldn’t place it among the top-tier sushi spots we frequent. The service was good—friendly and attentive—and the ambiance was authentic, with traditional decor and a spacious layout.

We arrived late for lunch, so there was no wait, and parking in the plaza was plentiful. Since we were there right before their lunch closing, we had to eat quickly, which was a challenge with my toddler niece’s slow eating pace. However, they didn’t rush us at all.

We had an enjoyable time, but given the many sushi options in the Bay Area, especially along Stevens Creek in Cupertino, we’d likely explore other places before returning.

Kid-friendliness: Yes, very family friendly.“
