50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Garden Grove

“I never thought vegan food would be so yummy! I got the potato salad and the "favorite dish" of the super nice young man who owns the business. I would definitely recommend it!!!“

“It is a family owned restaurant serving yummy Vietnamese dishes that are vegan. We love this place. We tried almost everything and each is delicious. The service is a friendly mom and pop restaurant service. They are really accommodating what you need.“

“Today went to get breakfast with my friend Damon at Denny’s on Harbor Boulevard. Maricela was our waitress, and she was amazing. Thank you Maricela for making our breakfast great. Perfect service, and we had nice conversation with her. We are coming back to see Maricela very soon. Thanks for a wonderful experience.“

“The Vegan Pho was amazing! It saved my life ! ��“

“Food was the bomb! You definitely need to try this place. I will definitely be back“

“I'm really impressed with this restaurant. Not only is the food delicious, but the atmosphere is also very pleasant. The Beef Stew I tried yesterday was extremely flavorful, but what I liked most was the enthusiastic and friendly service.“

“One of the best coffee shops in SoCal. The service is great, the drinks are fantastic, and the food is great too“

“Food is good, service is prompt. A shame is parking lot is a bit too small.“

“Pho 45 in Garden Grove is a bright, busy, and very clean spot with a friendly vibe. We ordered the phở tái chín và viên and the phở tái nạm gân. The portions were generous and well balanced, with fresh herbs and noodles. The broth was light and I personally wished for a bit more spice aroma, but it was still one of the better pho experiences I have had.

The service truly stood out. For a small mom and pop restaurant, it was the best I have seen. The owner watches every detail and the staff is very attentive. I had a stroller with me and before I even reached the table they cleared a chair so I could park it easily. Our food also came out super fast.

The space is simple with white textured walls and is very family friendly. Service is a 10, food is a 9. I would definitely return“

“Yes and yes! Great menu! Will be back!“

“Best vegan tamales around don’t sleep on these“

“The pizza overall is decent, I've had better, but the crust is pretty great. They have creative pizzas like an Indian curry style pizza and a spicy Thai style pizza. The Indian curry pizza was decent, but I would have preferred more sauce and toppings. This time I got the Meat Lovers pizza and largely felt the same about it. The only off putting things about the place is that there's a TV playing a loop of a weird program "The Supreme Master", which gave me strong cult vibes. Updated from previous review on 2025-11-21“

“Delighted by my midday visit to Urban Punjab in garden grove for a lunch at 3 PM—serendipity in its timing as they were open and welcoming. Tucked away in a modest shopping center that also boasts a superb shawarma joint, this place is a hidden treasure. The tandoori chicken and dal makhani I savored transported my taste buds straight to the streets of Delhi with their authentic, extraordinary flavors. The lacha paratha? Simply genius. Service was extraordinary, matched by the unique touch of serving drinks in metal, regal glasses that elevate the dining experience to one of noble indulgence. Having the pleasure of meeting both owners, their dedication was evident in every aspect. I'm looking forward to a return visit with loved ones in tow, ready to embark on a culinary expedition through their entire menu. Heartfelt thanks to Urban Punjab for a five-star experience.“

“A friend recommended this place. We go to Disneyland all the time and now I will always come here for breakfast!! I had biscuits and gravy and an over easy egg with a side order of crispy hash browns ! It was literally the best diner food I had in such a long time!

It’s a hole in the wall type of place a true gem!“

“Place is awesome, great dairy free options too for vegan eaters. Shop’s theming is hilarious and took me right back to high school. Staff is friendly and they have a stamp card program! Give them your money!“

“Delicious! We stopped in with a group of 7 on our way to the Great Wolf Lodge for dinner.

It was easy to order. Your biggest decision is one plate or all you can eat. The one plate is very generous so you've really got to be hungry to make all you can eat it pay out. There are a bunch of rules if you decide to do all you can eat posted on the wall.

Once you pay, you get a bowl to fill with the meats & veggies. If you have kids, you might encourage them to fill their bowls. You can either eat their leftovers or take them home with you.

The meats include meatballs, beef, pork & chicken. Too many vegetables to choose from. Three types of noodles. Vermicelli, egg & something else I can't remember. Two of us went egg and while the nameless noodles were good (the other 5 people got them) I think the egg is superior.

You pick some sauces and the chefs cook up your meal.

Hot & fresh!

There's a restroom and a fountain soda machine. You can also just get water.

Definitely a delicious stop if you like stir fry noodles.“

“I’ve been to this location several times, and they consistently deliver. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting and with the newly remodeled bar, it’s the perfect spot to hang out and sip on something good.

Their breakfast selection is solid. I always go for the avocado toast, it’s a favorite of mine, especially because they bake their own bread. It’s so fresh and flavorful! This time, I also tried the seasonal banana matcha latte. It was a bit on the sweet side for me, but still enjoyable.

My boyfriend ordered the buttermilk biscuit & egg sandwich and a vanilla latte both were a hit. They also have an impressive coffee selection and several locations to choose from, which is a bonus. The staff is always friendly and efficient, making the experience even better.

We love coming here, but a quick pro tip: try to avoid Sundays if you’re looking for a peaceful coffee moment. They share a door with the church next door, and once that door opens, brace yourself for a flood of people. Still love this place but not when I’m sipping in a sea of chaos. Lol.“

“The best Falafel I have ever had. Perfectly cooked. They offered me a sample before I even ordered. One of the best values for family meals around.“

“Amazing experience from when we walked through the door to when we walked out had such an amazing experience!! THE FOOD WAS AMAZING SUSHI WAS ON POINT AND THE PRICES are great!!!!! But what would make me come back(cause I’m from Temecula) was the service and the amazing food“

“Awesome food and great service. Atmosphere is what one would expect a strip mall food joint to be. Garlic paste seemed to be house made but the harissa seemed to be sambal oulek (an Asian chili sauce) everything else is really really good, especially the rice.“

“We dined at Amarith Table last night for the first time and can't wait to tell all of our friends about what a Great Restaurant it is. There is literally something on the menu for everyone. The food is delicious ontop of being all organic. The service was top-notch: friendly & efficient. Every staff member came to our table to introduce themselves and to see how things were. When we left we felt like we were part of The Amarith Family. We cant wait to Come Back...Woohoo!“

“Sugarcane drink good and fresh“

“Very delicious!! Been coming here for many years. Now under new management from what I understand. The staff is amazing and make you feel like you’re home. Will always come back. Thank you so much 🙏🙌🍣🍱😋“

“The best! The owner was friendly and very polite. Food was amazing and tasted fresh, my Pa loved his huarache de chorizo 😃definitely recommend!“

“We eat halal so finding a Vietnamese place that serves that is nonexistent. Vegan would be the second next option and Hoa Sen really surprised us in the imitation meat department! Their meats are super well textured and tastes almost like meat. They have more traditional dishes as well in comparison to other vegan Vietnamese restaurants around here! Service is fast and everything is delicious.“

“A hidden gem that is actually well hidden! My wife and I stopped by OniGuru and each tried four different Onigiri flavors. The flavors were fun, delicious, and filled us up! Luckily, we arrived on Labor Day, so the line was non-existent, thus it took under five minutes for our food to arrive.

This place is a modest sized booth inside a shared common area meant for gatherings and business events. Definitely don’t be intimidated by the parking nor the view from Google Maps.

I would definitely visit again and wish Houston had a similar establishment!“

“1. The crab fried rice and drunken noodles were delicious and well-made!
2. The spot has chill casual vibes with a small interior!
3. The staff were friendly and timely with my order! It was ready in 15 mins!
Note: I did not easily see a restroom available for customers!

“Family oriented restaurant that serves amazing tasting foods...everyone are super friendly and Ashley n Rudy make you feel like you're in their home! I recommend eating there n I give them 10 ⭐️s“

“Perfect place to watch the NFL! Geaux Saints!“

“Great food and friendly staff“

“I always get the combo over rice with white sauce. The meat is always consistent and I enjoy the food very much. The restaurant is clean and the employees are great. Good service overall at the Garden Grove location.

Parking: Park anywhere it is available.“

“good food great price pancakes are big and fluffy. would go back if I lived down there“

“Absolutely DEEElicious!! Wonderful service! Great tasting food! Fresh and fast. Many options, including plenty of vegetarian and vegan. You can tell the owner really cares about his place, his product, and his customers. Great pricing too! Totally recommend to EVERYONE. Will be back, and often!! 💕“

“Literally the best Mexican food I've ever had in my entire life. Even compared to the Mexican food back home in Milwaukee which if you know, you know. But wow this place is worth 10x the price. The super nachos are just out of this world. The birria taco was the best taco I've ever had. I was so full that I had to save the burrito for the next day and it was even amazing reheated! Just go and see. Great staff great place“

“I’ve found myself coming to this spot many times whenever I’m in OC. It’s one of the few places where you can find a wide variety of authentic Vietnamese dishes beyond just pho, which, honestly, a lot of places still don’t get right.

I’ve tried more than six different dishes here, and every single one has been flavorful, delicious, and truly authentic. It tastes just like home.

Some of my favorites are the Bún Mắm, Bánh Hỏi Heo Quay, Bún Riêu, and Hủ Tiếu Mì Khô—all so good and packed with flavor. I don't recommend Bột Chiên tho!

The service is always friendly, and the food comes out quickly, which makes the experience even better.

Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for real Vietnamese food that goes beyond the usual. A hidden gem worth checking out!“

“Kind of a hidden hole in the wall spot a bit off of the main Garden Grove Koreatown strip.

Good set of 반찬 (side dishes) and the portions were large. I ordered the 갈비탕 (rib soup) and it had large pieces of meat that fell off the bone.“

“My friend and I got their spicy marinated crab and it was soooo good. The perfect texture and flavor. It wasn’t too spicy and it paired so well with rice and seaweed. We also got the beef soup with dumplings and rice cake which was also amazing as well! The workers here are so kind too“

“This is my new favorite spot! Dropped by after Disneyland they have 2 pool tables and pool was even free til 5 so we got 2 games in free. Drinks were reasonably priced and food was just unreal. Can't wait to come back again next time we're in town.“

“Simple Korean comfort food set in a cute little restaurant setting-

Got the Korean katsu meal which comes with soup , along with a roll of bulgogi kimbap and my husband got their combo set with ddukbokki and kimbap, which came with two dumplings.

Simple, fresh and delicious with kind and welcoming servers“

“My family and I come with my friend and his family to Brodard Chateau for outdoor dining in May 2024. Foods are real Asian foods and tastes. Lovely foods, tastes and services.“

“Our family loves Kaju food.“

“Cute little boba shop! We're tourists from Arizona and we enjoyed it. We got the strawberry mango tea with strawberry popping boba, haus milk tea boba and taiyaki. The taiyaki was absolutely delicious, fresh, hot with the perfect amount of Nutella. Would definitely come back whenever we return to California. 🫶“

“Since I returned from a trip to central Vietnam 4 years ago I’ve been chasing down a bowl of authentic cao lau. Living in San Francisco and Portland I can hardly get my hands on cao lau, so little Saigon has been a destination for me. This was my first and only required stop when I finally visited the area and it did not disappoint! The Cao Lao noodles were perfectly square and chewy, the broth herby and flavorful. The pea greens were also delicious. The lovely man who works and runs this with his wife was so friendly. I’ll be back!“

“GUYS, if you haven’t tried it, you are MISSING OUT . Soooooo goood.“

“Great environment! , golf customer service :)“

“The burger was amazing!! It was cooked perfectly the flavor was on point!! The regular fries were very very good. I loved the dipping sauce we got(forgot what flavor it was). But, my only complaint would be the sweet potato fries were soggy and had no flavor (in my opinion). Our waitress was Michelle. She was awesome. Thank u!!“

“Food is good, service is prompt. A shame is parking lot is a bit too small.“

“An Absolute Gem – Thai Food Heaven!

Dining here felt like stumbling into Eden—a peaceful, welcoming place where every bite tastes like it was made with love in someone’s home kitchen. From the moment we walked in, the space was spotless, the atmosphere cozy, and the aroma of spices and fresh herbs was intoxicating.

The food? Next level. The yellow curry chicken was out of this world—creamy, perfectly spiced, and full of flavor. The fire chicken had just the right balance of heat and depth, and everything we ordered tasted like a Thai grandmother was back there cooking it fresh just for us.

The kitchen is immaculate, and you can tell they take pride in everything they prepare. Customer service was top-tier—warm, attentive, and genuinely kind. It’s rare to find a place where everything just clicks—but this is it.

If you’re looking for authentic, soul-warming Thai food in a clean, welcoming setting, this is the place. Easily one of the best Thai restaurants I’ve ever been to. I’d give 6 stars if I could.“

“los camarones ala diabla con crema , deliciosos, con una pacifico bien fria,,,“

“had the butaton Ramen, very very good! 1st time here, I definitely will be coming back!“
