50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Gardena

“I like the food Jamil n actman is the best“

“I love the quality and quantity of food you get. Their Portuguese Sausage is amazing and their fried rice is always delicious“

“Got the lemon June drink and the truffle fried rice to go and both were really delicious. The rice Had pork and sausage in it and came with great side of in house soy sauce on the side as well as utensils and the lemon June drink had peach purée and it was super refreshing, a bit in the pricey side for everything but it was all super good so I’d definitely come back and try more, inside was fairly small but the decor was super nice and service was good and on point so I’d definitely recommend this spot“

“An adorable, cozy sushi restaurant with INCREDIBLE fresh fish. We got the special and regular omakase, and the special is absolutely worth the extra $20 because it comes with an amazing toro collar and tiramisu, along with more sushi, soup, and a carpaccio. Some memorable bites were the monkfish liver, fresh oyster, toro collar, daikon marinated red snapper, golden eye snapper nigiri, and the AMAZING housemade tiramisu.“

“蕎麦、日本食　最高 !“

“Simply delicious food. Look forward to visiting again soon! Baklava - to die for!!!“

“SERVICE 10/10. There was plastic found in one of the udon, and they replaced the dish with a new dish AND ON TOP OF THAT the whole meal for our family was on the house. We came here multiple times before because of the quality and price of the food but this was crazy. Please come and support this business the food portion for the price the quality its amazing we left a huge tip in replacement because a free meal for a table of 6 is crazy.“

“Best Pho place around. You know a place is going to hit when they have large sauce bottles
On the table . As soon as we stepped in we were greeted , which I appreciate considering many places leave u standing there awkwardly. The music level was on point , low enough to talk loud enough to appreciate. The staff is very kind , they give off family vibes . Food came out quickly and hot . We’ve been here several times so this review is long overdue . The pics I took before we left . Next time I’ll do a before and after not just an after ….. Two enthusiastic thumbs up 👍👍👍👍👍“

“A friend who frequents this establishment brought me for lunch today with another friend. Being a vegetarian I was impressed by the selections I would love to try. I ended up ordering the salmon, scallop, spinach cream pasta with capers. It was delicious! My friends ordered the pork katsu and hamburger combo and it looked awesome. The portions are so generous and it comes with soup and salad for the combo and mine came with a small salad and homemade bread. And the family run restaurant is very service oriented, friendly and a very clean and comfortable place. Highly recommended“

“Great folks, diverse clientele and awesome food!!“

“es muy bueno y muy limpio todo fresco y me costa porque yo trabajo a hi y me fascina ser del personal the pan“

“I had dwaeji-gukbap, and I highly recommend it.
There was no unpleasant pork smell, and the thickly sliced meat was very tender.
The pickled perilla leaves served as a side dish were especially delicious—I recommend placing them on the meat and eating them together.“

“The food conveyor belt is efficient & user friendly. The food itself is good, with a few caveats. In the mood for nigiri & sashimi? This is the place to get it conveniently and with good quality. In the mood for rolls that aren’t your basic California/tuna? This place will disappoint. But, they also have great dessert! The yuzu cheesecake is SO good. It’s really only 4 stars because of the rolls being so lackluster. They also only do brown rice which is fine I guess but not preferred.“

“The food here is Top Notch! My favorite is the #13 Gamjatang and #16 Wooguji Galbitang. Soups are flavorful and loaded with lots of meat! They don't skimp on the ingredients here! Love their kimchi!

Restaurant is clean and spacious with bright lighting.“

“We love this place. They have many different choices of ramen. The servings are Huge !! I would recommend this place to Everyone.“

“The food is fantastic. I don't understand why people wait in line for crappy chicken down the street. Cane's and Chic-fil-a have nothing, I mean NOTHING, on Fyrebirds. Support small business, not to mention way better food! It's a no-brainer.“

“Food and service was amazing. Atmosphere rating doesn’t mean much as it’s a takeout spot. The fried cornbread balls were crispy and soft on inside. Brisket was tender and juicy. Loved the beans and potato salad. Drove up from San Diego and took a gamble on this spot and it was well worth it. No pics to add as we tore into it immediately. Also, for $40 it was a great deal.“

“I love this place for at least 3 generations my family has been coming here. It makes me think of my grandmother as this was always a treat me and her would go and get just the two of us and share with no one else. It was like our place and being a family and seeing a family and speaking like family all my life I just love this place. I always want 16-20 pieces half and nori and inari.“

“I saw this place while driving and saw a line waiting for their food, so I decided to give it a try.. Ì asked those in line, what was good there.. The answer was either the teriyaki bowl or plates, and the teriyaki burgers.. I got the teriyaki chicken bowl.. it looked and smelled great driving home.. After eating it, I didn’t understand the line of people waiting.. It was okay, but in my opinion, no big deal.. I’ll be honest, I did eat it ALL, and the serving size was BIG, so by no means was it bad.. To be fair though, I’m gonna have to try again, and see what I missed the first time..“

“Food is good (its spaghetti sooo..) price is ok, about 9$ a plate, they have Asian inspired dishes. Service is ok, small place, can get crowded.

I like this Gardena instation, but really it's just good basic pasta. Nothing to write home about, but consistent and good enough.“

“Muy ricos 🤑 desayunar en ese lugar 💯👍🏼“

“I tried Azuma for the first time a few weeks ago was very pleasantly surprised how good and authentic it was. Its a small restaurant with a line starting at 5 when they open. I went with a big group and we tried the chicken teriyaki, vegetable tempura, and curry which we all enjoyed. The portions are big enough to share! I would definitely come back and recommend!“

“Their recipes are undefeated“

“I love their Porridge with pork and century egg/duck“

“Per usual 917 did not disappoint. The experience is Always pleasurable. The menu offers a variety of tasteful options which evolves according to season, along with keeping some staple items such an their amazing burger. The service is always exceptional, efficient and friendly. We look forward to our next experience.“

“Amazing food, the spicy seafood soup was sectacular“

“Everything was excellent from start to finish. The soup is very tasty, and the broth tastes pure, clean, and comforting—you can really tell it’s well-made and not overpowering.

The price is reasonable, and the serving size is just right. Overall, everything is good: great flavor, good portions, and fair pricing.

If you’re looking for a simple but delicious soup with a clean, rich broth, this is definitely a place worth visiting. I would happily come back again.“

“Ramen is so good I cried.“

“Beef tongue burritos, taco are the best in Mexican restaurant and salsa bar too“

“My absolute favorite Japanese-Chinese restaurant in town!
Umemura truly feels like “町中華” — a warm, family-run neighborhood Chinese restaurant just like in Japan. Their Umani Ramen is hands down the best ramen in California… maybe even in the entire US. That’s how amazing it is!

I also love their Kanitama Chahan (fried rice topped with an imitation crab omelet). Everything is always super fresh, flavorful, and authentically prepared. This place is loved by all my Japanese friends, Japanese American friends, and even my American friends — everyone falls in love with it!

The servers are kind and friendly, and the cozy atmosphere makes every visit feel comforting.
Highly, highly recommended!“

“Great food friendly service“

“I'm a fan of both locations, but Gardena has my heart. Everyone is kind and the line moves quickly. It's a smaller location with better parking.

Favorites include Chocolate chews, oatmeal raisins, and bear claws.

Go for the special cookie deal where you buy 5 cookies and get 1 for free.

Did I mention the heart of the bakery is the people? Seriously, my heart smiles every time I leave with bags filled with boxes of sweets to share with my friends, family, and my very own belly.

Thank you for being one of my favorite places to grab a treat. It makes a long drive worth the journey filled with smiles.“

“we go every weekend for breakfast 😋“

“THEEEE BEST Pizza in the South Bay!!! I'm very picky when it comes to a good pizza, especially coming from the east coast. Ran into this gem and absolutely loved it. I can't stress enough to try this place because it certainly worth it and the staff are beyond friendly. Do yourself and others a favorite and GO!!!“

“This is a favorite of mine! Service is very friendly and accommodating. The food is plentiful and delicious! I highly recommend!!“

“By far the best sushi I’ve ever had! The quality here is unmatched—the sushi is extremely fresh and cannot be beat. I ordered the Rainbow Roll, and it was made to absolute perfection with beautiful presentation and incredible flavor.

Not only was the sushi outstanding, but the Udon noodles were unbeatable—rich, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. This place really delivers on taste, quality, and overall experience.

I will definitely be back in the future. If you’re a sushi lover, Sushi Island is a must-try!“

“Update: I used to love and recommend this place but idk whats going on and its sad, the broth which is the main point is always 50/50 now. When its good its really good but when they miss sometimes its flavorless or super sweet as opposed to originally packed with flavor and all around balanced on bone flavor, spice herb packed, and sweet. Please follow old recipe or something. Still the pork spring rolls are a must have with the peanut sauce no matter what!“

“Been for years ..! Love it“

“Very satisfied great friendly service“

“Luz helped me order my food with ease. I appreciate the service!! Great food.“

“불맛 짬뽕 맛집~~“

“Amazing customer service!
We ordered all you can eat and everything was really delicious.
They even have offer a vegetarian all you can eat for a special price. We thought it was really considerate.
Plenty of side dishes as well.“

“Jabar was the most polite and welcoming and humble human I’ve encountered in a very long time. And the food was amazing too!“

“Lunch time is always crowded but it moves quickly they also have a kiosk for ordering food if you don’t like lines the place is always clean the aroma is tasty the staff including the men that staff the kitchen are so pleasant from the cashier to the ones that serve the table bringing you your order has the best personality in the restaurants business. Take out or dine in just fabulous try it you will not be disappointed. There are other locations Redondo Beach is my ground“

“Absolutely delicious. This is one restaurant that I will be going back to plenty of times okay I already have and if you haven't had it you are missing out. Josies is phenomenal and I am happy to boost this place with my 10% top reviewer for Google maps because they need to be recognized and more importantly tried.“

“Late night Korean vibes. This place is legit!
Open room with ambiance lights but not dark with awesome authentic Korean vibes and plenty of space for large group to sit together.
The service is super friendly and inviting, we ordered so much food it barely fit in our table and when we ordered soju, they gave us the soju for free to enjoy it with our meal.
Shout out to our server for making our meal experience a great one, we’re absolutely coming again soon!
Each dish was delicious and their prices are very fair, I dare to say not expensive at all!
If your near Gardena and it’s late your options for good food are limited, this place is your salvation from boring food late at night.
Definitely a must try with your family and friends!“

“It was seriously so good. My friends and I were looking for a place that was open late after playing cards, and this place hit the spot! It was 116 for five of us, and they kept refilling our sides whenever we ran out. Honestly, we've decided this might be our weekly spot to go to! A real gem“

“The food was very good! I will be visiting again“

“Fukuno Restaurant is a hidden gem! No need to go to Japan, this is an even better experience. We were served by a kind older Japanese duo. The sushi was incredibly fresh. Other side dishes like pumpkin, eggplant, and bamboo shoots were delicious. Everything was fantastic and I would come here again in a heartbeat.“

“First time trying shabu shabu and it did not disappoint!!!“
