50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Escalon

“We traveled from our home out of town to try this restaurant for the first time as we often dine at hulas next door. We weren’t disappointed! We were greeted when we entered . It was a Sunday around 11:00 am and the small dining area was occupied so we chose to sit at the counter. Service was quick and the coffee was hot and well brewed. We had the blueberry waffle platter, apple cinnamon waffle with a half side of biscuits and Gravie. . A whole order is 4 large biscuits. Everything was plated exceptionally well and delicious! The waffle batter must be a special recipe because I’ve never tasted one as good as those we ate today when we order them in other restaurants! All the servers were friendly, attentive and we were acknowledged when we left also. We have definitely found our new diner even though we live out of town 40 minutes away!“

“my favorite place to eat in escalon. i always say they have the best burgers in the valley. the staff here is exceptional.“

“As someone who lives in San Francisco and eats at a lot of great restaurants, I can honestly say this place is top-tier. The ingredients are incredibly fresh, and the quality of the food is on par with some of the best spots I’ve visited in the city. What really sets this place apart, though, is the people. Chef Jay is an absolute gem—friendly, passionate, and genuinely enjoyable to talk with. We had some great conversations, and his positive energy shines through in both his hospitality and his food. Highly recommend stopping by if you’re in the area. A hidden Gem.“

“Their almond biscotti!! My favorite! 😋“

“This place is fun. The food was great and the atmosphere fun but the staff was a bit off. We ordered extra ranch and paid for it, but they only had part of the order. They said they'd bring it out, once it was prepared but we had to ask multiple times to get it. Our pizza was gone by the time it was ready and we had to go get it.. If the place had been busy, I would have understood but it was a very slow night.“

“My husband and I relocated from the Bay Area to this area a few years ago. Recently, we visited Sizzler in Modesto for the first time. We thoroughly enjoyed the salad bar. The food was excellent, and the service was outstanding. Thank you, Deanna, for your exceptional customer service.“

“Real good food, and Excellent service.“

“Everything was amazing as usual, but I was missing the Lavender milk drink so bad! They had Lavender Gin Fizz but it wasn't the same. Please bring it back!“

“My Go to lunch birria tacos“

“Walked in and was greeted right away by Carmen. Server was very nice and helpful. I forge his name. But taller gentleman. But it felt so nice and welcoming. Carmen came by a few times and checked on us. Talked to my wife and kids. Made us feel like locals. Highly recommend a visit to Oakdale huckleberry’s. The food was amazing too.“

“Delicious and flavorful. Made to order, tacos, 🌮🌯🥗 and taco salad with a flour shell, served with asada meat, and tripas..with many more options available. Also, the tasty toppings are all fresh and crisp. I give a 2 thumbs up and a 5 star rating. Dont wait. Come get you some and decide for yourself. You Will Not Be Disappointed..Blessings to everyone 🙌✝️“

“It was so yummy! Amazing customer service & great beer selection“

“It's over priced. It's difficult to enjoy a meal when it's overpriced. I've had better service than today's experience. $17 for a basic bacon, turkey and ham club with minimal portions is disappointing. $5.99 for a side salad, $3.99 for an Iced tea $29 for lunch, isn't worth going back for. Then additional tip expense. Multiply that by 2, over $60 for coffee shop food, no justification in my opinion.“

“The best cheesecake we’ve ever had! The strawberry topping was so yummy! Highly recommend it!“

“I had the chicken korma with rice and garlic bread. So delicious, very flavorful, and it had enough perfect spice.That way , you could taste the rest of the flavors. But what I really admired most was the welcoming kind service.I recommend this place 10 out of 10“

“fire food and enthusiastic service“

“Friendly staff great did menu great deserts Great customer service locally owned🥰🥰“

“It is the best pizza anywhere around here. The crust and sauce are both amazing. I’ve tried many of the pizzas at Stevie’s and you cannot go wrong with any of them. But the Combo is my favorite. The Garlic Parmesan Buffalo wings are super good too!!“

“We hot food to go the other night. It was delicious. The server who took our order was excellent.“

“Good Food - Good Price😁“

“This was hands down the BEST experience I've ever had at a restaurant. The service was absolutely amazing. The staff were so attentive, fast, nice and kind, and extremely helpful. My family and I are still talking about how outstanding the staff was and how amazing the food was. This was 100% a 10/10 experience and we WILL be back. The pho was great and the cream cheese wontons were the BEST I've ever had. Gosh this was so good. Definitely coming back soon. Tren was awesome and an amazing waiter. Everybody was great there and everything was so damn good.“

“I've never had shabushabu before and it was amazing! So many choices of everything! It's buffet and ridiculously delicious. So much food and so healthy too. Good idea to go for lunch because it's cheaper than dinner. And they were so kind to let me and my friend sit as long as we wanted. The service was wonder. I will definitely be back!“

“Delicious steak, the best. Great atmosphere. Good prices.“

“Wish I could give more stars!!!! If you live or are visiting in Modesto and haven’t tried this place before you are missing out! The food is amazing and this family own restaurant definitely delivers great food and service! Clean and cozy makes you feel like you’re in Italy. My kids love the pizza to go and all the pastas on the menu. Great selection, highly recommended!“

“Wow!! The best sandwich I ever tried! The boy who took my order with the best attitude, caring and friendly.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My Garden Café on Coffee Rd (where the old Waffle Shop used to be) is phenomenal! From the warm, friendly staff to the delicious meals and generous portion sizes 🤤—everything was perfect. I’ve always loved their other locations, but this was my first time visiting this one because of my crazy schedule. I’m so glad I finally made it in… oh my goodness, you’ve got to come check them out!!!“

“Service is amazing ! Super friendly, helpful and attentive“

“Local exquisite food, wine and SERVICE!!! This Restaurant might not say anything to you from the outside, but when you enter you know your at the right place! DGLB Band had a presentation this past October 21st for the Red Tie Arts Org. Global Concert Series and it was Fantastic!! For a great night out you need to look no further, PAPAPOLLONI Mediterranean Bistro & Bar is the place to go for a Modesto Fine Dinning!“

“Excellente servicio, conida muy rica! Definitivamente regresamos!“

“I had been wanting to try this place for some time and I can honestly say that I was not disappointed. The food was amazing as well as the staff. We had Pad See ew, pumpkin curry, chicken satay, papaya salad, sticky rice and of course a thai tea. Good size portions and reasonably priced. We will definitely be back and looking forward to trying their Turlock location as well.“

“terrible food quality and customer service. the picture shows what should be a burrito. but received an expensive mess. didn't get what I ordered and the staff will not admit they messed up and gets defensive. Terrible Customer service. will also skip out on cheese on top of a wet burrito like all the other taquerias do so you get charged more for less food.“

“Just a great staff and very well coordinated and attentive.“

“Great service! Good food & friendly staff“

“First time eating here, I would recommend it. Everything was great! Our group had burritos 🌯 and tacos🌮 and both were very good. The man who took our order was friendly & even had a lil' treat for us to try, a vampiro, it was very good! The prices were also very good. I like the way the truck is painted, it is noticeable. A must try!“

“Had a great atmosphere with a wonderful crew. We were welcomed in and greeted with smiles. They have a great selection of mimosas including non alcoholic options. The menu offered a lot of healthy options. The chicken pesto sandwich was a hit.“

“Hole-in-the-wall dive serves the best fish I’ve ever had. It’s the kind of fish where you think “I’m full, I should stop,” but the texture and taste are so perfect that you have to finish it. Fried oysters are okay. If fries are vital to you, dine in: they don’t use the kind that stay crisp on the drive home. Service is plenty fine for what it is: they are cranking out big orders at high speed.“

“A little dark inside. So with my eyes it was kind of hard to read the menu. But I guess that's more my problem LOL! We were seated quickly on a Sunday for lunch time. Servers were attentive and kind and kept checking on us to see if we needed refills or anything else. The food was delicious. Fish tasted fresh. We got sushi and some appetizers and some udon noodles. Everything came out great. I guess my only complaint would be, when we were done. We kind of felt rushed to get out of there. They kept just hanging around our table, taking things and just standing there staring at us. Almost felt like they were pushing us to leave. We weren't there that long after we had finished so it just felt weird. But, then again it wasn't a packed restaurant so maybe they just didn't have much to do and really just wanted to clean our tables. When we left. It wasn't for that. I'd give it five stars. I just don't like to feel rushed at all when I pay for a meal this pricey.“

“really good service and the food and drinks are fire“

“Delicious....I had the shrimp it was it was very good!!! Margarita was amazing !! Waitress was helpful and friendly ..only complaint no Corona Other than that loved this place.“

“Una explosión de sabor, delicioso, familiar , excelentes precios y sabores, convenciones que jamás te imaginas, amé el sushi 🍣 fiesta y el langosta 🦞“

“I recently visited Ramen 101 and ordered the Mini Meal for $10.99. It comes with one scoop of steamed rice, one scoop of macaroni salad, and vegetables. There are no substitutions allowed for the mini meals, but you do get to choose your protein. The options include barbecue chicken, chicken katsu, teriyaki chicken, barbecue beef, fried shrimp (5 pieces), or island white fish.
I chose the island white fish and really enjoyed it. The portion size was good for the price, and everything tasted fresh. Overall, it was a nice, simple meal and a good option if you’re looking for something filling but not too heavy.“

“Luce served a wonderful breakfast!!!
❤️
Keep our small and delicious businesses open, and treat yourself!
The pancakes were fluffy and wonderful.
The ranhero eggs delish
and the hash-browns nice too!“

“I love their cider and, without a doubt, it's better than any other cider. I recently moved out of state and this is one place I try to get to every time. They have a rotation of many flavors, with 5 on tap each day, and you can get a flight. The place is simple and inviting, even though you're in a parking lot. Food is by food truck and varies day to day.“

“Returned to area to vist, been 7 years and we went to one of our old go to restaurants for Chinese food. Did not disappoint. Service was quick, big portions and tasted just like we remembered it. Server was just as friendly and happy as we remembered. Prices was good.“

“Love this place! Authentic, made with love. Owner and his family are so friendly. I love coming here.“

“The best food and staff ❤️“

“Great service! Thank you Laura“

“We do like Rivets, but the food is getting pricey and smaller servings. Make sure you check the prices when you get your wine. we were told one price and it was $4.00 more. If you can get Stephanie she is honest.“
