50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Gold River

“Love this place! I'm so glad it's closeby! The pizza is good but the other stuff is even better! The cheesy breadsticks, wings, calzones and pasta! I'm not a fan of the chicken tenders but they made have changed them because I think I got them during the pandemic when supplies were sometimes hard to get. Staff here is always awesome!!! And prices have not gone up crazy like the other pizza parlors nearby. I love their pizza sauce - it's just a little bit sweet! Also I love the pesto drizzle!“

“I love that Arigato's still has 1/2 price sushi rolls. The sushi is always top notch and super fresh. The tempura Veg was delicious. We walked in to order to go and they had the order done in maybe 10 minutes? Super fast. Been an occasional customer for 15 years between this location and the one on Howe Ave. Always happy with my visits.“

“Just finished dinner. Had salmon with asparagus and roasted potato. It was excellent. The service couldn't t have been better as my water glass was never empty. refilled 3 or 4 times. Would definitely recommend.“

“Hadn’t stopped here much in recent years because staff would barely greet & appeared bothered to take an order. However, reluctantly went in today & was surprised by current staff. Very welcoming & they all seemed genuinely happy. Kuddos to whoever influenced the change. Its noticeable.“

“Now that's a spicy meatball. I'd highly recommend trying this pasta shop out. The owner is friendly, the food is fresh and flavorful, plus the price is very reasonable for such a high quality experince. Pick up some dinner to go or enjoy a meal in the comfortable outdoor seating area. I'm glad we found this place and we plan on becoming regulars here. Did I mention they offer cooking classes?“

“I really like BHD. Pretty consistent with quality and taste across locations. Staff is always friendly and I'm never feel rushed when I can't make a decision. Sometimes I leave the decision to the staff and they've not been wrong yet. We ordered 3 sandwiches for takeout. All the sandwiches were good, but this time, the pastrami seemed to need salt, like at every bite. Still, it's a great place for lunch and I'll be back.“

“The food is AWESOME!! We went two days in a row because the tacos stuck in our head too much😆😆. Sara the owner has a beautiful spirit and she remembered us from a year ago. We always receive excellent service and we will definitely come again.“

“Love my carnitas! Always clean and friendly! Thankfully on my way to family.“

“I’ve been to El Cantaro in Monterey about 10 times! I’m looking forward to going to the Sacramento version of this restaurant today! That has some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had. I love the fact that it doesn’t say vegan plant-based and all that stuff everywhere. It’s basically just a Mexican restaurant that happens to be Vegan. Can’t wait to come and visit!“

“Amazing food! Best tacos in Sacramento. Owner Shane was really great to speak with. He and his food exude passion. You must try The Char Market! 🌮“

“Vanessa was a wonderful server she took great care of us and made sure the food came out in great time. She checked on us regularly and made sure we had a wonderful experience! The blooming onion was top tier and the steak was cooked rare perfectly! We will be back especially to sit with Vanessa!“

“We used to drive down to San Jose for vegetarian food , and now we found Noble Vegetarian closer to our home . Even my 9 years old son said he wanted to come back !“

“Stopped here on a Saturday afternoon because where we were going was too crowded and we were very pleasantly surprised! Great gyros, hummus, tzatziki and chili. Pita is ver very y yeah good. Can’t wait to try the amazing looking Dubai chocolate and their baklava too.!“

“Everything about this place is amazing, the environment is very warm and welcoming, the waiters were fast and on point with everything, including my dietary restrictions. I have a peanut allergy, which is used regularly in Thai dishes, but they were able to find a way around my allergy and serve excellent food. Their curries, noodles, and stir fry are all exceptional, and I say this is the best Thai place in Folsom.“

“la comida hay esta deliciosa aparte todos son muy amables super recomiendo este lugar..“

“This is my favorite breakfast spot in Rocklin! Staff gives top tier customer service. The food is freshly made and done as requested. I know if I am eating at Hot off the Griddle, it's going to be a great experience! I will leave with a full stomach and a smile on my face.“

“Excellent customer service. Tasty authentic food. Great dining experience.“

“This place is amazing! The food is 🔥🔥🔥 and the family that runs it is awesome! Highly recommend this place if you’re a fan of great quality food and a great price! Keep up the good work Folsom Pizza and Kabob! ⚡️🤘🏼⚡️“

“Good food and good price.“

“Best vegan baked goods I've had in my entire life and I do travel extensively so I've tried a lot of vegan good and this is fantastic beyond words. You can't tell it's plant based. It's made with such great ingredients and love and it resonates in each bite! Wish I lived closer and could get these more!“

“A friend of ours took us to this fabulous gelato store yesterday I’ve never seen anything of sanitary as this which means a lot to me because my husband has Multiple myeloma cancer immune system. I have never in this country had gelato this good. The people that served you were wearing masks and the containers of the gelato were covered not like other stores were. They’re just sitting out exposed . The owner, whose name is Tessa and is absolutely a delight and is just so personable and caring and came over to the table that we were going to sit at without knowing that my husband had cancer and sanitize the table before we sat there, she had no idea he had cancer. The point is not only was the place sanitary like I’ve never seen any gelato place like that before, but the texture and flavor of this gelato was very much like I had in Italy and France you don’t find that here anywhere. I can’t wait to go back. It’s 45 minutes from my house and Rockland and I will drive there just to get their gelato. It’s worth the drive. It’s off of Bidwell in the BelAir shopping center. I highly recommend you try this place it’s absolutely so beautiful inside and so Clean with the flavors of these gelato and the taste is just 10 star . My husband had the coffee and the chocolate and I had the cappuccino and the salted caramel. It was absolutely yummy. I’m retired so it’s worth taking a drive over to Folsom just to get this gelato to me. It’s a destination now. I’ll be going there next week.“

“New Owners! Delicious Persian and Pakistani (alternate pages of menu). We had their paneer appetizer). It had big cubes of soft Pakistani cheese in a tomato based cream sauce with finely chopped ginger. Fabulous. We also enjoyed a grilled eggplant with a Persian yogurt cultured from sheep and goat milks. The butter chicken was exceptional: he grills his chicken, chops it, then adds the juicy chunks of meat into his delectable sauce. His ground beef kabob was juicy and tender. I enjoyed an inhouse, freshly made mango lassi. Wow! We have enough leftover to enjoy a shared lunch tomorrow.“

“Not sure exactly where to start but this restaurant has some serious customer service issues and that's just one category we were very disappointed in. We ordered online last night to try it out as we saw so many great reviews for the food so we broke from tradition and on my birthday we decided to eat here. All we ordered was a Helen, Cheese Fondue, and the Meatball rigatoni. I received an email stating the food would be ready in about 45 minutes. We left 35 minutes later as it's only up the street from where we live. As we arrive we noticed it's a little corner spot with patrons and appears to be more of a quaint little sit down restaurant and my wife and I thought maybe next time we just come in instead of take out. We stood there for about 2-3 minutes and then guy yells from across the room that he will be with us in a minute. He didn't seem to have anything he was really doing but ok. So finally an older guy comes over and asks us if we have been helped. We told him we were there to pick up our order, and he says he will go check on it. After a few minutes he comes back and says he tried to call us (no record of any missed calls on my phone) and that the rigatoni with meatballs was not available and he wasn't sure how it let us order that online. We don't know either and we definitely know you didn't try calling us to tell us that. Anyways he provided the option for a refund or to make my wife another dish. He mentioned shrimp scampi as the alternative, now the rigatoni was $25 a plate and they didn't even have shrimp scampi on the menu so I was skeptical since usually if they make something good it would be on their menu. So we waited for another 10 minutes for this SCAMpi. I capitalize scam because that's exactly how we felt when they tried to give us this alternative dish and we looked at it. I wish I had taken a picture of what they brought out for $25.... It was literally a small portion of large macaroni noodles, and no more than maybe 6-7 small chunks of shrimp in some greasy sauce that looked totally unseasoned... Gross. I wouldn't feed anything that dish and they should have never tried to replace a main dish like that with something as disappointing as what we received. So I took the container back into the restaurant as we hadn't left the parking lot as I wanted to see first just what they felt was comparable to the $25 we just spent. I found the guy who helped us and just explained that we wanted the refund and the scampi was not acceptable. He said ok and said right after that the refund was already processed. Now to the other food. The pizza was $23 and the cheese fondue was $13. Normally $23 for a pizza isn't crazy, but this was literally the size of a medium if that, and was extremely bare of ingredients. It taste pretty good, but wasnt worth the money at all. I don't eat a lot, and I was able to eat half of this pizza alone without even blinking. The cheese fondue was ok but not memorable. So now today I get up and take a look at my bank account to see if the refund was actually processed, and what do I see? Instead of a refund, I was charged again for that SCAMpi and not actually refunded! I wouldn't dine here again with the lack of customer service, value, and lack of integrity. I will be going back in again to get this straightened out and am not happy about it.“

“Order the coconut milk get the mediterranean wrap. The coconut look up frappe had a real coconut flavor which was absolutely delicious!! The mediterranean that ways also very cool love the fact that he put it in the panini toaster. Added a nice crisp to it. The hummus tasted home made! Will be back!!“

“I have enjoyed this unique dinning experience several times over the years. Each time offered a unique experience, with each being outstanding. The food and entertainment remind me of a Las Vegas production in both style and quality. The true superstar is Connie in customer service. She made sure all our reservations and meal selections met our needs. She is not only helpful but, she is patient and extremely helpful and delightful. When in doubt, trust her recommendations. Thank You, Connie!“

“Stopped in on a whim today as we were in the area. Google gave 4.9 stars and we were not disappointed. From the greetings when we entered the door to the delicious BBQ burger and fall off the bone baby back ribs everything was great! We definitely plan to return to try other key items on the menu!“

“Great sushi amazing staff, would recommend and give a 5 star“

“I want to share my experience of the dinner I had last night at this fine restaurant with my daughter. The food was the best I’ve had in a very long time. The service with Michael, our server, was outstanding. I highly recommend Hawks for any occasion if you want delicious food in a beautiful atmosphere with charming and exceptional service.“

“I can't believe this place has been opened for a year and I am just now trying it. In 3 days, my wife and I have had the BLT, Chipotle Turkey Club, Gyro wrap, and Falafel wrap. Bread and Falafels are made in-house by the owner, Ramzi. Super nice guy. This is notched on as one of my favorite places already.“

“Best taqueria I have had the pleasure of eating at in this area. We moved from Phoenix and have searched for good tacos. Panchito was great, the owners were very friendly.“

“Amazing customer service by Baba. Excellent dinning place. The food was exceptional and definitely coming back again! Recommending for anyone who wants good Indian food!“

“Easily the best sushi in the Sacramento area. Its not close. It has ruined sushi everywhere else for me. I would eat here everyday if I could. Meet that with 5 star service and 5 star staff, its a perfect night out. Staff make you feel like family and the sushi is to die for.“

“Lianna at the counter was super helpful. She added an additional meat to my sandwich for me. She also provided me with a plastic cup and ice to go for free. The place is adorable, pretty affordable, and clean. The bathrooms were clean and nice. The bread on my sandwich was really good. Great consistency and flavor. We had sandwiches, a cherry tartlet, and a merengue roll. All were delicious. The coffee and tea we had were presented so nicely and tasted very good. We will go many miles out of our way to visit here whenever we drive through the area.“

“Staff is friendly... So clean, fast service. I love the religious factor. I always like to see the Bible verse on the bottom of the cup or the french fry container....Prices stay the same in the economy.... Love that...“

Going back tomorrow with the family to celebrate our anniversary. We moved here from the Bay Area a year ago and this place exceeded our expectation.“

“As a skeletal being, I don’t often indulge in the pleasures of the culinary world, but my recent visit to Umami Ramen was a delightful exception. Upon entering, I was greeted by the rich aroma of simmering broth that tantalized my non-existent taste buds. The ambiance was warm and inviting, with wooden accents and dim lighting—perfect for a bony figure seeking refuge from the chill of the grave. I opted for the signature ramen, “shiro ramen” a spine-tingling favorite. The broth was rich and deeply savory, with layers of umami that could awaken even the most dormant of bones. Each slurp brought a satisfying warmth that sent shivers down my… well, you get the idea. The noodles were perfectly chewy, a delightful contrast to my otherwise brittle frame. I appreciated how they held onto the broth, ensuring each bite was flavorful. The toppings—a generous scattering of green onions and a perfectly cooked soft-boiled egg—were visually appealing and added a delightful texture. For a skeleton, the highlight was undoubtedly the marrow-infused broth, which was rich enough to make me almost forget my lack of flesh. It was comforting in a way that transcended the corporeal. Service was friendly, and the staff even chuckled at my bony demeanor, which I took as a compliment. Overall, Umami Ramen provided an experience that was both hearty and hauntingly good. In conclusion, I may not have the capacity to eat in the traditional sense, but I can confidently say this ramen is to die for. Highly recommended for all the living and the occasionally wandering skeletal souls.“

“Shout out to La Placita ! I think it’s been about 5 to 7 years since I’ve been to the restaurant. My family and I have been eating there for over 20+years . I can’t tell you how excited I was to see some friendly faces still there. The food was off the hook like they’ve never skipped a beat. Same excellent service and same excellent food.“

“Food and service are both amazing!“

“The food is fantastic. Lunch is a great deal for the food and ambience.“
