45 Best Vegan Restaurants in El Cajon

“The sandwich with beef and chimichurri is delicious!! Excellent service…“

“Fresh and tasty food in a nice environment.“

“After trying the dan dan noodles at a vegan pop-up market today, I can not stop thinking about them! The noodles, the OmniPork, the crisp veggies. Amazing. My boyfriend had the spring rolls and really liked them. I am looking forward to trying the rest of the menu because the whole menu looks fantastic! The staff was super friendly, and the portions were generous. Who can complain about vegan Chinese food? I can not, as it is challenging to find and is one of my favorite cuisines. I will continue to support this local restaurant and recommend giving it a try!“

“Their carne asada fries are to die for always enough for two. I get mine extra cheese no sour cream (I don't like it).
They never disappoint.!!
Sorry I don't have a photo I ate them before I left this review.
Next time.“

“I have been craving good Thai for a few years. I have tried some not good and some okay other places. Thai Time is so good.

Thank you for your exceptional customer service! This place is one of my favorite restaurants in EC, and employees like Andres is one of the main reasons why this place is awesome.“

“Loved everything we got tonight, the chicken sandwich, pulled pork, amazing! So were the fried Mac and cheese balls!!!!“

“My first time here and I will now go more often. I got the Godfather sandwich and it is filled with lots of meat and so flavorful. I also got a regular cannoli which actually tastes like a good Italian cannoli that.I was hoping for not just something stuffed with frosting. Everything was so delicious and the staff was very friendly, and the atmosphere is of a just down home cute, comfortable place. I will definitely be going back“

“AMAZING FOOD!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!! SO DELICIOUS!!!!“

“We've been patrons for 61 years; spent our 60th. Anniversary dinner here along with all our family mile stones: birthdays, wedding rehearsal dinners, etc. We love the staff, lovely people and family and the food is always great. We love the atmosphere; calm and private booths... they are family as far as we are concerned...“

“I have eaten Vietnamese cuisine throughout California, and Grandpa Tao ranks among the best. In addition to the amazing tastes, the casual restaurant is friendly and comfortable. Ingredients are fresh, the environment clean and relaxing. I particularly recommend the Pho, the Rice Vermicelli (try it!) and the Shaking beef. You'll like it.“

“Been going there over 30 years.. Forget those chain pizza places, seriously, this place always feels like home when I go. That guy has heart, and his dough and sauce are on point! Keep it up Sam! Much Love.. I can't believe no one else has posted here till now.“

“Всем рекомендую посетить этот ресторан и поесть суп "Pacha" из баранины.“

“It was very easy to find and parking on the street, right in front. There was parking in the back but we didn’t use it. We found them on google and were able to peruse their menu prior to arriving. We had the large salad that was made by them after filling out a small order form with what you would like. The proteins were extra. I had the large salad and added egg and chicken. The serving was plentiful and the protein addition was hearty (4 ounces my guess). Two large salads (3 proteins total and two soft drink cans—under $40). My husband needed a restroom and they did not have one for public use. That was a drag. He had to go down the street to find one. The place was relatively clean and there were about 5 booths to choose from. The music was a bit annoying. Staff was friendly!“

“I ordered 5 Ground Beef Kabob Skewers , 5 Chicken Tikka Skewers, 1 chicken cream chop, 1 Shawarma Wrap, Rice, Hummus & Salad. Served with Pita Bread, Grilled So when I got home I find out there is only 4 Ground Beef kabob and 4 chicken Tikka And that was so embarrassing for me because I invited 5 people for lunch That was really bad experience“

“Everything on the menu , It’s all good !“

“Always excellent food and service. Great pad Thai and Great Yellow Curry. A favorite.“

“Visiting the area & stopped in because it was close to where we were - glad we did. The best frappes we’ve had, no joke! Cozy little coffee shop. Good service.“

“Super delicioso 😋 super recomendado“

“It's so nice to be able to order for delivery without having to use Door Dash or Uber Eats or some other delivery service. I'm a truck driver, so I don't have an address to deliver to. But my pizza was delivered right to the truck. This pizza is fantastic. The crust has the perfect crisp. Plenty of cheese, and they put the perfect amount of each topping that they don't overpower each other. The price is very reasonable. I'll order here anytime I'm in the area.“

“Great place with great food and great service, will definitely come back!“

“Mr. Shawarma is an absolute gem! The food here is incredibly fresh, and you can taste the quality in every bite. The portions are generous, ensuring you leave more than satisfied. The staff is friendly, and the service is great too. Highly recommend!“

“Bistro Cajon is a hidden gem! The cozy ambiance and friendly staff make it a perfect spot for a relaxed breakfast or brunch. Their omelettes are simply divine—fluffy, flavorful, and generously filled with fresh ingredients. Whether you're a meat lover or prefer veggies, they have options to satisfy every palate. Pair it with a freshly brewed coffee, and you're set for a delightful morning. Highly recommend stopping by Bistro Cajon for a culinary treat!“

“Found Funky Burgers and Fries today. I just wanted a Strawberry Shake. It was awesome! Made with quality ingredients and care. The service was excellent. I’ll be back to try their Burgers & Fries👍“

“It’s been a while since I last visited Beef and Bun, but it never disappoints. Their burgers are always fresh and delicious, almost like they were made right at home. The patties are juicy, the toppings are just right, and the buns are perfectly toasted. If you’re looking for that classic burger taste, this is the spot.

Now, the shakes—they’re over the top. Rich, creamy, and packed with flavor, they’re the perfect treat to go with your meal. Whether you’re a fan of the classics like chocolate or vanilla or want to try something more adventurous, you won’t be disappointed.

The restaurant itself is on the smaller side. It’s clean and cozy, with just enough seating to accommodate a small group of 4 to 6. If you’re planning to dine in, keep in mind that space is limited. However, they do have a drive-thru if you’re in a hurry or prefer to enjoy your meal at home. Ordering ahead is a smart move, especially during busy times, to avoid the wait.

Overall, Beef and Bun is a solid choice when you’re craving a great burger and shake. It’s a small spot“

“Extremely generous portion sizes. My mom had the watermelon salad which was unique and refreshing, i had the french dip which is what i always order and is how i judge restaurants, and it was great. fries are amazing and the au jus is rosemary infused which made it delightfully fragrant but not over powering. and my mom’s espresso martini came in a chilled glass which is a nice touch. the bread was also hot and very good. oh plus excellent service! and i like that you can hear the live music but it’s not so loud. highly recommend (:“

“Fast and friendly service, Great tasting food my favorite is the honey walnut shrimp💜“

“As fast food sandwich shops go this one clearly stands out from the rest. The crew that made my sandwich was extremely fast and they didn't skim on the meat that went in it. They got through 15 or so people in under 5 minutes I was actually amazed. The sandwiches are top quality and the bread is always extremely fresh. This Jersey Mike's is a definite go to.“

“Thank u so much mike at Monavala Pizza for sponsoring Erin in the positive direction pageant she won jr miss San Diego central as well as miss congeniality with your generous support!!! She’s so excited to start giving back to the community“

“So, I recently tried this restaurant on a whim when ordering through Postmates. WOW, I was impressed. I got the sandwich with the roast beef and the coleslaw, and it was absolutely delicious! Furthermore, the prices are outstanding, especially considering the high quality of the food. Check it out if you are in the area--I am sure that you will not be disappointed.“

“BEST PIZZA and food! Always fast and good service! The owner is hands on and super nice!!!“

“I recently researched a good Chinese restaurant for takeout, and it was a great experience! I called the restaurant, and the person who answered was so patient and helpful, answering every single question I had. It was really nice. I gave them a pickup time, and it was totally worth it.

We tried the Beef Lo Mein ($15.99), Shrimp House Special Fried Rice ($14.99), Salt & Pepper Shrimp ($19.99), and Homestyle Tofu ($14.99). Everything was delicious, flavorful, and perfectly salty. The portions were generous, enough for the two of us, which was amazing.

Just a heads-up: since it’s a restaurant, if you’re sensitive to salt, you might want to ask them to go easy on it. Otherwise, just drink plenty of water. Personally, I loved it! We’ll definitely be returning.“

“A must, for great Chinese food. This place gives great service and always plenty of food with your order. They go the extra mile to make you smile. Everything is so tasty. We usually order to go, orders have always been made correctly.“

“This was a lovely restaurant I came to for my friend's birthday. Every guest seemed to like their dish. I ordered a club sandwich (no bacon, no tomatoes) with a side of fries but I was a bit disappointed when they brought it with bacon and tomatoes. They sent it back and corrected the order, and it ended up being pretty good and very filling. The restaurant has an outdoor terrace that has a beautiful view on the pool area.“

“Avocado boba is 💣 - grat service“

“Good pizza!“

“Our family go to sushi place! Great Sushi rolls, Ramen, Sashimi, and beer. Friends love when we bring them here too. Service is always great, staff is prompt and friendly and deserve big Tips!! Some of our favorite rolls are Crazy, Sergio, Sexy, Citrus, Rainbow, and always get a Chef choice off the menu. So fun when they bring it out on the big sushi boat. Recommend 10/10!!“

“The receptionists, waiters & management always take great care of us! It doesn’t matter whether we are with a large group or it’s just my husband & I. Dan the manager is always moving around making sure the patrons are enjoying their dining experience 🥩🥦🥗 Good Food & Great Service always makes for a Fabulous evening out ♥️🍷“

“Sycuan is 2 minutes from my house, I'm always there, I go with my Family or my husband on staycations at the resort, enjoy the spa, the massages, the lazy river , the music, the food, it's all good!!! highly recommended 👌🏽“
