50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Encinitas

“Ambiance 😀, service and uniqueness. Had the Carajillo for an after dinner treat. Sooo good!“

“GREAT GREAT FOOD. Thank you 😊“

“Excelente y deliciosa comida!!“

“Great service too! My mouth watered the entire time and was completely satiated and beyond happy with all that we ate! New menu apparently, but I gotta get back before they change it again!“

“Best burger I've had in a very long time. Fries are amazing too! For the same amount you would spend at McDonald's you could come to Hamburger Hut a w and get way better quality food. I was shocked at how low the prices were. A burger, fries and a drink cost me $14.“

“I was just looking for a place to drink sour beer. That's all. You can imagine my utter joy when I discovered this place not only has FIVE sours on draft but also a menu that is more than 50% vegan. I tried all of the sours. The standout for me was the blueberry muffin, which tastes exactly as described. At the recommendation of the bartender, I got the crunch wrap, which was absolutely delicious. I also made a friend with the woman sitting next to me and got to try the pretzel with queso and mustard (also completely vegan), and that was phenomenal. If I lived in the area, this would definitely be a regular hangout spot.“

“Great beer and dog friendly. Outdoor seating on highway 101.“

“Friendly service, clean and really good food. Support the locals and have a local brew“

“Had ordered Salad and pizza’s all were fantastic . Server was awesome !!!! We love your pie’s Buona 😍😍😍😍“

“Yummy! Freshly squeezed orange juice…“

“This place blows me away every time! Best restaurant in the world to me! We are from London and visit San Diego often. We absolutely love eating here in their cute little garden. Incredible food!!“

“Pipes in Cardiff is a hidden gem that perfectly combines a fantastic breakfast selection with a stunning location. Nestled in a vibrant area, this café offers an inviting atmosphere that makes it an ideal spot to start your day.

One of the standout menu items is the açai bowl, which not only looks absolutely amazing with its vibrant colors and fresh toppings but also tastes delicious. The blend of flavors and textures creates a refreshing and satisfying breakfast experience that leaves you wanting more.

What truly sets Pipes apart is the genuine warmth and friendliness of the staff. They go above and beyond to make every guest feel welcome, adding a personal touch to your dining experience. Their passion for great service shines through, making your visit even more enjoyable.

This review holds special meaning as it marks my first entry for a food review. If you’re looking for a delightful breakfast spot in Cardiff, Pipes is definitely worth a visit!

Thank you!

“I have found a legitimate broker who has helped me in so many ways in the aspect of forex & cryptocurrency. At first, I was really skeptical that it won't work but I still kept the faith going until I saw a recommendation about Mrs Craig Vanessa who changed my financial status from grass to grace. Once again I'm really grateful for your help and support towards me and my family in this tough time of the year.

“The best Bagel and Lox...“

“We love this place! The food is fresh, delicious, and very well priced! The restaurant is always clean and the staff makes you feel like they're glad you stopped in to eat! We have ordered a variety of different items from the menu and it's all been amazing - including the salsa bar! Their carne asada, shrimp, and mahi mahi are definitely standouts. The carne asada is flavorful and not greasy like some Mexican food restaurants. I also recommend giving the breakfast burritos a try. This is definitely a great place to grab some excellent Mexican food!“

“First time got a chance to try this place and the food was amazing. Great taste, great size, portions were awesome, and taste was very good. Definitely will be back for more and I highly recommend you to try this place. Great job guys.“

“Just had an amazing dinner. We ordered Navratan Korma, hummus & naan, 2 chai teas, and two deserts. All of it was so full of flavor. The rice was cooked perfectly and the vegetables were perfect.
The servers were very helpful with their dessert recommendation. The Ras Malai was better than I expected. Smooth milk cakes in sweet cream with coconut shavings. That was a great finish to a great dinner.
I will definitely be returning soon.“

“You are a restaurant that cooks from the heart, and I really enjoy your cooking and service.“

“Great vibes everyone is super friendly loved the service! 🍷😀“

“My husband and I have been here for the very first time and we immediately fell in love with this place. The staff is amazing, they know how to treat you and make you feel at home. Alice is very passionate about her job and we loved her homemade desserts sooo much. A special mention to Michele, a very young yet extremely professional waiter, who contributed to create a cozy and pleasant atmosphere! As Italian, I can say it's hard to find place such Alice's where you feel so vividly the warm of our country. We will definitely come back!“

“Had a nice burrito bowl here recently. These are tricky to do well. But they nailed it. Ingredients were in the right proportion. And they didn't skimp out on the carne asada (which plenty of places seem to do when you order a bowl). My friend was very satisfied with her al pastor tacos.

It was a tasty lunch. I'll be back.“

“the birria tacos are good I recomend them“

“An excellent place for a first date. It’s quiet enough to talk, yet not so quiet that it feels awkward. The lighting is soft and romantic, and the drink selection is fantastic — especially if you’re into wines or classy cocktails. I appreciated the attention to detail: the garnishes were fresh, glassware elegant, and even the water was served with a cucumber slice. That’s how you know they care about presentation. We stayed for almost three hours, just talking and sipping. Will definitely come back.“

“Good food, pet friendly if you are in the area stop by“

“Pros: Food is delicious, the staff very friendly, and the atmosphere very nice. Great place to watch people, dogs, and cars. Cons: At busy times while you wait for a table, there isn't anywhere to sit, and once you're seated the food can take a LONG time (up to an hour) to arrive.“

“Amazing food!!! We got a few things on the menu today. We got the firebird , cali dip , kids meal chicken nuggets . Let’s start with the firebird .. amazing sweet and spicy taste with big nice pickles to maintain the heat overall recommend this sandwich . The Cali Dip was delicious sweet and so much flavor I’d have to say one of the best “Tortas” I ever ate . The fries are the best !!! Sauces are so yummy. Everything was about $47 but SO WORTH IT!“

“Forchettabouddit, soon to be Forchettina never, ever disappoints. I've made it a point to try different dishes the times we've been here and everything is always authentic and tasty. The atmosphere is awesome and the service even better. I absolutely love this neighborhood place.“

“Me and my family love this spot. Probably our favorite takeout/delivery spot. However, it’s even better when you dine-in. The food is good. The prices are good and their chicken is unusually good for an Indian restaurant. I really like their korma whether it’s veggie or chicken. I also really like their sizzling chicken dishes but you have to dine there in person for those.“

“Very nice japanese restaurant with a great variety of food and drink. The chefs are japanese and the food is authentic. I set at the bar and enjoyed not just the superb food but also the conversation with one of the chef. The crew is extremely nice. A bit pricy but not outstandingly for a good restaurant in Carlsbad.

Parking: The place is located in a shopping center with shared parking (plenty of parking places).“

“Casual gem with amazing food, lots of options and reasonably priced!

Vegetarian options: Lots of options and diverse vegetables

Parking: As with any main location, peak times would be more challenging, we got there 5:30 and found a spot 2 blocks away“

“Jackson was amazing. He helped guide is through the menu and each of our individual tastes. The chef accommodated my tweaks I always make. Get the dessert flight!!!! AMAZING!!!! Very unique menu! Seasonal! The special was packed with local fish. I will be back and highly recommend going.“

“Food and service was amazing“

“Everyone there is so nice and helpful.“

“Great setting, friendly, good service, open til 6pm and de-caf“

“Indian/Nepalese cuisine is one of my favorite cuisines. I am South African and grew up eating eating variety of traditional curries and stews. I travel a lot for work and have had the fortune of trying some of the best Indian restaurants in the nation, including dozens of places in SoCal. Everest Himalayan Cuisine is by far, the best restaurant I've ever been to. This cozy casual restaurant opened in November originally for take-out. I am a big fan of dine-in, so I was excited to find out that they recently opened for dine-in. I came with my best friend (we're always looking for new favorite restaurants). We decided to get a couple things to share. Started off with the Lamb Momos. They were such a wonderful treat. For Entrees, we went with the Lamb Tikka Masala and the Butter Chicken with Cilantro Garlic Naan. While eating our Momos, an adjacent table received their Tandoori Chicken and Lamb. It smelled and sounded so good, we decided that we would have to order more (we also ordered Chicken Vindaloo and Chicken Tandoori). Our food came, and when I dipped my Naan into the sauce, I nearly cried it was so good. It reminded me of a better version of my grandmas famous Tikka Masala. It's was then, that I knew this would become my new favorite place. It was so flavorful and luscious. All the meat was so tender. The Naan was supple, while pillowy and stretchy at the same time, (clearly proofed perfectly). Every dish we tried was the best iteration of the dish I've ever had. I usually order my food quite spicy (9-10), but if you like a flavorful warm heat, get a 5 to 7. We ordered another order of the Cilantro Garlic Naan to get every bit of the sauce. I know I'll be back soon. I really would like to try more of their dishes and their desserts. They also have a nice Lunch Special, I'd like to try. Thank you for sticking around, and reading to the end. I hope more people discover this new place; there's nothing like it, especially in San Diego.“

“Great food, fun and quirky vibe.“

“Been coming here for years. As a local born and raised in Encinitas, there is no better restaurant for drinks and great food that has withstood the times. As for the service from the staff it has always been exceptional. Most recently Saul has always taken care of me with recommendations on drinks and food. They have just recently changed their menu so definitely something to check out.“

“Great place, kind staff, nice food with decent portions & excellent flavor. Try their specialty boba drinks & mango sticky rice if it’s in season, delicious!“

“This is by far the BEST location we have been to!! If I could give them 10 stars I would!! Trevor was phenomenal!!!! He had the kiddos and adults engaged the entire time and his cooking skills are incredible! The manager was so kind, the server was extremely friendly! They were attentive and on top of making sure our drinks were filled without even needing to ask. I highly recommend this location to anyone and everyone wanting a memorable, clean & delicious experience! Thank you Benihana Carlsbad!!! See you next time“
