50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Fountain Valley

“The best place to try Bosnian food! I can’t pick one favorite, from cevapi to pizza to pita , this food taste like homemade. All employees are nice and friendly, but the owner is an amazing human being, so humble and approachable, honest and relatable, love chatting with him every time we visit Cali, which is usually 2-3 times a year and we make sure we eat lunch and dinner at Sofra Urbana every day. See you soon! Can’t wait for the most delicious Bosnian food on the west side of the United States.“

“First time eating there, very nice place food was delicious and the servers was great 😊“

“I try to come here every time I shop at Costco. The food is incredible, the service is fast, and everything is well priced for the amount of food you get. The owner is so friendly and he always offers a sample of their delicious soups (the lentil is my favorite!) while we wait.

The baguette, tantuni bowls, wraps, and kunefe are standouts. Even though this is a Turkish restaurant they have one of the best burgers and fries I've ever eaten. Everything tastes so fresh here. You won't be disappointed!“

Their quality crispiness and taste is so much better than anything else I’ve had nearby and I’m not even a seafood person, yet I still find myself coming back here all the time. This place also has extremely reasonable prices, if you ever crave anything like this, you won’t be disappointed here“

“As a Turkish person who has lived in the U.S. for over 20 years, I can honestly say this is some of the most authentic Turkish food I've had here. The staff is warm and welcoming, the service is excellent. If you're looking for genuine Turkish cuisine, I highly recommend this place.“

“Sushi Koto is always a treat for me. I love to come here for what I feel is the next best thing to eating in Japan. There is always a wait for Sunday brunch, but they do take reservations. Excellent service and friendly staff. This is definitely not your ordinary neighborhood Japanese restaurant. Highly recommend it!“

“I have been to many Thai restaurants but this one stands out with tastety food and outstanding service .... strongly recommend you to try their food“

“Mashallah, a total hidden gem! The food is delicious, the service is top-notch, and the atmosphere is incredibly welcoming. It’s owned by a truly genuine, loving family, and that care really shows in the quality of the experience. Will definitely be coming back!“

“I think I just found a hidden gem sushi spot! Since the new owner came in, this place has completely leveled up in the best way. The interior got a fresh makeover and feels way more modern and cozy.
The sushi and sashimi are super fresh, and you can really taste the upgrade in quality. The rolls are next-level good now — seriously so much better than before!
On top of that, the staff and owner are all super friendly and welcoming, which makes the whole experience even better. Definitely giving good vibes all around.
This is officially my new go-to hidden gem sushi spot — I’ll 100% be coming back again and again! 🍣✨“

“This is my favorite raw vegan restaurant! They also have a large menu of cooked vegan (or maybe that should be the other way around). I haven't tried their cooked food, but it looks absolutely delicious! I have not been to LA or the area in many years, and I am missing Au Lac!“

“Round two and still obsessed! 🍜✨ We came back to NEP Cafe specifically for their incredible Vietnamese fusion food—they nail that modern twist every single time. The staff is total pro-status, the decor is major eye candy, and it's easily our favorite spot to vibe with family and friends. 10/10 will be back again!“

“Great food and great atmosphere. The restaurant is very clean and service is spectacular! Very impressed with the restaurant“

“I went there for the first time I ordered 5 piece sashimi was very good and fresh ordered twice and delicious oysters omg 😳 and sashimi scallops was outstanding I give this restaurant 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Amarith Farmhouse Restaurant & Pie Shoppe is a casual farm-to-table spot with a big menu, made-from-scratch dishes, fried chicken, and pies. They also have a farm where some of the restaurant's ingredients come from, which was pretty neat. They even let us try watermelon from the farm. In addition to the food, they also had lots of pies and even frozen chicken pot pies in the fridge/freezer.

You order at the front, and they bring the food out for you. The restaurant had a chill vibe with light music in the background. Just know that they can run out of items quite early. We went on a Friday around 6:30pm, and I wanted to try the Short Rib Pasta, but they didn't have it.

* Bone-in Fried Chicken 5/5 - This came out hot with crispy skin and a crunchy texture while still being light and juicy. I was thinking, it's just fried chicken, but it ended up being pretty good. You also get 2 sides to go with it.

*Brussel Sprouts side 4/5 - These tasted decent with a good texture.“

“Excellent donar, burek and baklava. Of course the coffee is great too.“

“This place NEVER disappoints. Every other pizza shop is a complete rip off and pales in comparison to the quality and price of this establishment. The pizza always comes out commercial ready, and I mean picturesque without sacrificing the taste. The ingredients are always fresh and their pies show. Do not believe me, try it for yourself.“

“Amazing authentic Ramen. Service and food was excellent. My new favorite in Lombard!“

“Tony knows how to do it right... will recommend“

“So good and server are very friendly“

“Very good Thai food. Staff were very friendly. Good price for portions.“

“You want that classic diner feel with great service and food to match? Papa Zs is the place my friend. In my youth it was the place to go when I was hungover with friends. Now it’s a place where I go with the family. I absolutely love this place!

Should you go to Papa Zs? Hell yah dude!“

“Absolutely loved it here. The food was amazing. ❤️“

“Ugh.... First the driver delivers half of our order with half of someone else's order. We ordered 2 small pizzas, large chicken caesar salad and 2 large meatballs. We received our two pizzas with someone else's small pizza and mozzarella sticks. We called the store, told them what happened. The other lady missing her food had already called. So they will send a salad and meatballs (and yes, we offered to pay for the extra pizza and mozzarella sticks). 45 minutes later the salad arrives with NO dressing. And 8 tiny meatballs... Bummer!!! PS: We still love you FCP!“

“The best ramen you will ever eat anywhere. Great service. Great prices. Worth the wait.“

“Best atmosphere!! and Really good food!!!“

“An Evening at Kin Izakaya: Where Tradition Meets Ambiance In the culinary haven that our city embodies, Kin Izakaya emerges as a sanctuary of authentic Japanese flavors combined with the convivial spirit typical of Japan’s iconic gastropubs. It’s here that tradition and modernity collide to create not just a meal, but an experience worth savoring. The moment you step through the doors of Kin Izakaya, you’re greeted by an atmosphere that’s both lively and intimately comforting. The ambient lighting, coupled with rustic décor and understated oriental motifs, offers a welcoming reprieve from the city’s hustle and bustle. The soft murmur of patrons engaged in animated conversation sets the backdrop for an authentic izakaya experience. Kin Izakaya’s menu is a harmonious blend of traditional Japanese fare and innovative culinary creations. The tapas-style dishes, perfect for sharing, encourage a communal dining experience. From the delicate flavors of their sashimi to the robust, savory notes found in their yakitori selection, there’s a delightful complexity in each dish presented. The agedashi tofu, with its perfect crispy exterior giving way to silken tofu within, is a testament to the chef’s prowess in honoring traditional flavors while serving contemporary palates.“

“There is a sublime, almost religious satisfaction in sitting down in front of a live fire with a plate of raw, heavily marbled beef and a freezing cold beer. It’s an interactive theater of fat, smoke, and instinct. And if you want to experience this ritual at its absolute peak, you don't look for white tablecloths or corporate steakhouse polish. You look for a place that feels a bit tucked away, cozy, and smells instantly like caramelized soy, rendered fat, and sweet wood charcoal the second you open the door.

This is world-class Yakiniku.

You start with the yukke—the raw beef tartare. In lesser hands, raw beef can be a texture game with no payoff. Here? It’s seasoned with precision, rich, clean, and spiked with an egg yolk that ties the whole beautiful mess together. It’s a declaration of intent: we know meat, and we know how to treat it.

Then, the main event. Plates of A5 Wagyu, Kobe outside skirt, and prime beef tongue arrive, sliced with the kind of geometric reverence usually reserved for fine tailoring. The marbling on the Wagyu doesn't even look real; it looks like a geological map of some frozen, beautiful landscape.

You drop a piece onto the grill. It hisses. The fat hits the element, flares up, and perfumes the air. You don't leave it on long—just enough to get a quick sear, a bit of char, while keeping the inside beautifully rare. You dip it in the tare, put it in your mouth, and it simply ceases to exist as a solid. It melts. It’s an absolute explosion of umami that makes you want to close your eyes and laugh out loud at how absurdly good it is.

Even the sides here aren't an afterthought. The kimchi fried rice has that deep, fermented funk and spicy kick that cuts right through the luxurious weight of the beef, waking up your palate just in time for the next round of short rib.

It’s not a cheap night out, and it shouldn't be. This is a celebration of the animal, handled by people who deeply respect the craft, served in an atmosphere that strips away all the pretentious nonsense of high-end dining and leaves you with what matters: incredible food, good company, and the smoke in your hair. It is, quite simply, perfection.“

“They have the best Canh Chu Ca! Really really. My family has been going for years. We crave it. When we tried to go on a Tuesday and they were closed we went elsewhere but it just wasn't as good. Mirada cooks the fish so that it is still so succulent. The flavor of the broth is perfectly balanced and tart. Please give this place a try for healthy Vietnamese food.“

“So happy they finally opened! Always great service! Amazing quality meat and fresh veggies!“

“The best ramen you will ever eat anywhere. Great service. Great prices. Worth the wait.“

“My friends and I tried this place for the first time and everything was SO delicious! We started with the cesar salad, and it was one of the best I've ever had.
We tried the branzino, and we loved the lemony sauce that complemented both the fish and side of brocolini!
The pork jowl dish was so tender and packed full of flavor, and it came with lettuce that made each bite refreshing.
We also got the miso carbonara which was creamy, perfectly seasoned yet not too heavy.
Service was very nice and fast, so overall we had an amazing dinner!“

“I had such a fantastic experience here recently. The food was absolutely delicious and hit the spot perfectly.

I really loved the sandwich, which came wrapped in paper printed with a fun character design. The bread had a great texture, and everything inside tasted fresh. I will definitely be back for more soon.“

“Carlito's Diners food is outstanding! Their menu is hugh. Great breakfast, Mexican or American food and all is over the top good! Thanks you guys for the best Chile relleno I believe I have ever had!“

“Classic pizzeria style taste & atmosphere. Not something you see much anymore and I feel is a lost art. Very underappreciated, nice to see it alive here.“

“Best I’ve had outside Vietnam!“

“Love this place for breakfast very tasty menu❤️“

“We came here on a Sunday evening for dinner. Food came out quickly. Service was excellent! A very friendly server gave us great recommendations and was patient with our questions since it was our first time here.

We enjoyed the broken rice combo with BBQ meats and sides. I especially like the pork chop, the pickled pork, sausage, and crispy fish cake. It was a very hearty meal with big portions at a reasonable price. I also loved that it came with a comforting side of vegetable soup broth.

I highly recommend a visit!! I will be back!“
