50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Escondido

“This is super convenient. Simply order online, and they bring the order to your car. I don't believe they have any indoor or outdoor seating. Only to go. But for takeaway, it's perfect.
I had the Ceasar Chikin wrap. It was tasty.“

“I have been enjoying a quarter pounder for ages with a HI C orange, still delicious and fries were amazing. Soo good

Kid-friendliness: I don't have kids but they do have games inside for kids

Parking: They have a lot of parking for pickup, which to me it seems they have too many but since I don't know if they really get many at a time. I guess I shouldn't say. The reason I mention is because it doesn't leave much for the rest of us

Wheelchair accessibility: Pretty sure they have ramp“

“I recently had a fundraising event and Sunny Side was such a great choice for catering. After I sent an email, I got a call back and we walked through the order and right sized it. The guests really enjoyed an artichoke quiche, strawberry chicken salad and three types of mini cookies. Everyone raved about the food. It was all packaged up to be easy to serve. I would highly recommend working with Sunny Side on your next catering need!“

“The food is amazing. Had their new Grinder Sandwich and it was soooo good. The salad was fresh and the ingredients were plentiful. Great meal and great atmosphere. would highly recommend.“

“We were nearby Rockin Jenny's and decided to just pop in after seeing so many people going in. We ended up ordered the Turkey Sub 9 inch. Super super good. Totally unexpected but it was one of the better sub sandwiches I had in a while. What was really good was the Italian dressing, that really made the sandwich and I would totally buy that if they sold it separately. Nice employees throughout the store and great food! Would definitely come back again and would love to try to the other sandwiches.“

“Always great food fast service and very friendly“

“I have written a yelp review about their food. I love their plum sauce and that’s saying quite a bit as I am not a fan of the usual sweet side sauces. This one is different though. Their Pad Kee Mao or spicy noodles is honestly so good. Their noodles aren’t mushy (they are perfect) like so many restaurants have let them get, and their food is always served hot.“

“Ali Baba has been my favorite Middle Eastern spot since I was a kid. The food is always so fresh, authentic, and full of flavor .... the kind of place where every bite feels like comfort and tradition wrapped together.
Their vegan and vegetarian options are just as thoughtful and delicious as everything else, and the meat is incredibly flavorful and perfectly seasoned. There are so many options that even the pickiest eaters will find something they love.
It’s one of those places that never disappoints .... consistent, welcoming, and always a delight.“

“Hello beautiful, I've seen quite a handful of your comments on my post and I just wanna go out of my way to appreciate those people whose comments and good wishes encourages me and I hope to bring you guys so much entertainment 2 Thanks a lot, I feel honored and blessed to have an amazing fan like you. Kindly name 3 of my songs you love so much...“

“Everything we ate was excellent!“

“Good food and service boat noodle is a must“

“Awesome spot for good food. The portions are big, the food is tasty, and the people are really friendly. What more could you want from a great local spot for quick, delicious food. This is a pic of the lamb gyro. It’s massive. Fork for reference. The meat was cooked and cut perfectly, veggies are fresh, everything was fantastic.“

“I use drive thru all the time. Everyone is great! Friendly, thorough, knowledgeable, and helpful!! The food I get is always perfect! It's healthy. My numbers are super good. I skip the breads and get lettuce wraps, that and their grilled chicken salad is so good! Usually lasts 2 or 3 meals!!! I highly recommend Farmer Boys!!!“

“I went to O’Brien’s for the first time today. My Mother-in-law highly recommended the restaurant so I could meet my friend. The food was delicious. The service was great- Thank You Sarah and team. I am so excited to try the different types of breads and pastries. O’ Brien’s is known for their delicious breads, especially sour dough. If you are in the San Diego area, differently check out this restaurant! Sit down and relax with your favorite cup of coffee or tea with a sweet pastry, great bread or something from their delicious menu.“

“First time there food was delicious“

“We only had burritos, but holy cow! This is a gem. We live in L.A., and I honestly might drive down here for lunch again. This is the kind of business that should be patronized during these times, so that it survives to provide REALLY GOOD FOOD.“

“Friendly staff and great value. While the kabob is definitely not bad, it is not as good as some other places that charge more. For the price you are paying, it is good. The dolmeh was actually good. I would recommend this place but if you have had kabob at nicer places just set your expectations.“

“This was an excellent find. The food was outstanding and reasonably priced. The service was quick and friendly. My group of 3 was very comfortable at our table. We all would happily come again and recommend it to others. I particularly enjoyed my drunken noodles.“

“Soy. Un cliente. Q. Frecuenta. Mucho. Este. Restaurante selos. Recomiendo muy. Deliciosa su comida Grasias. Por todo.“

“Awesome food and exelent service 👌“

“LOVE the order ahead pick up drive through! Food is delish and service is on point! Thank you Mirin you never disappoint“

“Chicken Plus will always have a special place in my heart. I still remember when my dad used to take me here back in elementary school — it was our go-to spot for a delicious meal and some quality time together. Every visit was a treat, and even now, all these years later, I keep coming back.

The food is just as incredible as I remember — always fresh, flavorful, and made with so much care. But what really sets Chicken Plus apart is the heart behind it. Syd, the owner, is truly one of a kind. Every time I walk through the doors, I look forward to seeing him. He greets everyone like family and makes you feel genuinely welcome. It’s rare to find a place where the food and the people are equally amazing, but Chicken Plus nails it every time.

If you haven’t been here yet, you’re seriously missing out. Thank you, Syd, for all the memories and for continuing to make Chicken Plus the special place it is!“

“Best chicken soup!! All the daily specials are great! Flavorful food at a reasonable price“

“I have never tried Acai bowl -- until this restaurant!

Let me tell you, I was incredibly surprised by the Superfood Bowl #1. (It has Acai, Coconut Sorbet, Spirulina Chia Pudding, Vanilla Almond Granola, Strawberry, Banana, Blueberry, Mango, Pumpkin Seeds, Raisins, Sunflower Seeds, Coconut, Sunflower Butter, Cinnamon and Cacao Powders). It was so delicious and the combination of all of the ingredients mixed extremely well.

The Detox Juice is something else entirely. Loved it.

I will be back! Thank you.“

“wow!! great food, great experience! order inside and then go outside and watch them cook it fresh!!!“

“I came in one morning they were very busy full area plenty of customers I walked in through the front door the staff greeted me immediately asked me if I would be dining and I said no just needed to order a breakfast sandwich for my fiance the wait was not long the food was fresh I would recommend coming here for breakfast“

“Had my 33rd bday here with 40+ guests and I can honestly say I am more than happy with the experience. The staff was attentive quick and super friendly. The food was great and the place was big enough where we didn’t feel trapped. Kaitlyn was the bar manager at the time and she made us feel welcomed and taken care of. Highly recommend this place for big events“

“Just a perfect place for a family or for a date night.
Cozy ambiance, lighting is perfect.
Pricing is super affordable
Owner even came out and brought us free egg rolls.
My family and I have gone back 4x and we dont intend on stopping.
Customers for life.
You won't regret coming here.“

“Absolutely Amazing! I've been a 3GO customer for many years and they have always had the best Sushi in Escondido and great prices too! During the pandemic I started ordering their food for delivery and they do an excellent job of packing too! 10/10 don't bother going anywhere else.“

“I haven't been here in a while and was craving a beets, carrots, pineapple.and spinach juice. I ordered a large cup and requested no ice. I got my drink its it was just below half way with actual juice and the rest was foam, you can't drink the foam. I was about to get charged around $12 for a half empty cup of juice. I expressed my concern with the cashier and I asked her if she would charge me for the medium which is about $8. She was hesitant but eventually agreed to it. I feel like they fill the entire cup with ice and only top it off with a small amount of juice which is a rip off/scam.“

“Just visited and was immediately impressed with quality beverage selections and food offerings. The owner actually touched base and was very friendly. I will be back to try the food. Sorry that the market/ pizza place next door gets confused with this place. The 5 star reviews of the other place actually had photos of the interior I just saw in person...If you are any where in the area you should definitely give them a try.“

“If you’re looking for truly authentic Mexican tacos, this spot is a must-visit. Everything is handmade—from the tortillas to the fresh, flavorful salsas—and the meats are grilled right in front of you. The natural fruit drinks are packed with real flavor and perfectly refreshing.

What really makes the experience special is the family who runs it. They’re incredibly welcoming and make you feel right at home from the moment you arrive.

These are the kind of tacos that take you straight to Mexico—simple, traditional, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!“

“There is no pizza place I have frequented more often in my 10 years living in SoCal than Tikka Pizza Kitchen in Escondido. Their pizza is always so good. The warmth of the Indian spices and indulgence of pizza comes together in this small shop in such a fantastic way. If you like pizza, Indian food or just very flavorful food, give this place a shot. They deserve your money. And your taste buds deserve their food!“

“If you’re looking for a cozy spot in Escondido with a laid-back vibe and great service, Kettle Coffee and Tea is the place to be. The atmosphere is super casual, making it perfect for hanging out or getting some work done. The staff is friendly and quick, which is always a plus. Their sandwiches are delicious! I had a BLT that they customized for me by adding sprouts, spinach, and cheese. I even added extra bacon—because, really, who doesn’t love more bacon? The sandwiches are always on point here. I did have a funny little mix-up during my visit. I went to the counter to check on my regular drip coffee with three shots of espresso (I love my coffee strong!) and the lady said, “Here’s your BLT!” Confused, I replied, “I’m already eating one but it wasn’t the one I had ordered but that’s ok because I was hungry.” Turns out they printed my ticket twice. I offered to pay for the extra sandwich, but they insisted it was on the house. I ended up giving the extra BLT to one of our local homeless residents, which felt good. Overall, Kettle Coffee and Tea is a fantastic spot with yummy food and a welcoming staff. Definitely recommend!“

“Greg the host at the front was cool and professional, he greeted us with a big smile and sat us at a nice booth next to the bar. Tone is the bartender‘s name and he was actually our waiter as we sat close to the bar . He was very attentive, very professional and friendly. The food was absolutely awesome. I ordered my favorites as my wife did the same. we had our niece and nephew with us. The breadsticks and chicken gnocchi soup were divine. I had the stuffed chicken masala, and it was absolutely delicious ! I love Olive Garden food and sometimes I just can’t get enough. I left very stuffed lol !!“

“Daisy and the team of workers are awesome, Great service and very friendly staff. Thank you for providing authentic food. They provide amazing food from their culture and we appreciate the effort this team provides! Thank you so very much Robert & Teresa 🙏🏾“

“Yummy Burgers, Tempura Green Beans, and Ranch!!!“

“Everything we have ordered has been awesome. The portions are huge and last a few days. My favorites are the chicken chow mein and veggie egg foo young,

The customer service isn't amazing, but we don't really care. The food is delicious and that's all that matters to us. I'm surprised they don't have 5 stars.“

“Server was polite and even directed me to sit closer to the a/c (was a hot day). Food came out super quick. Pricing was fair. I would’ve wanted the eggrolls to be a bit more crispy but that’s just being nitpicky. I got a small #1 and I thought portions were very generous.“

“There's usually a wait time to get you food here, but that's because they take the time to make your order fresh. I always enjoy the club sandwich here and burgers. It's one of the few places that's open late that offers a variety of foods on the menu. The 2 for 10 is always a great deal. You get to pick 2 items from a from a special menu for a total of $10. It's definitely a go-to place for lunch or dinner.“

“Love the food and atmosphere here. Hard to get great service these days, but Mike's BBQ never disappoints. Thank you!“
