50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Gold River

“I been to 5 mexican restaurants in the Rancho area, and this is our favorite spot. Meats are well seasoned, food is really good and prices are pretty reasonable. Every time I been there,.customer service has been great! I recommend their birria Thursdays!“

“I order online from here several times a month, and it’s consistently great! The food is always ready on time, and the staff are fast, polite, and efficient. The sushi quality is reliable and tastes freshly made every time.

My son is obsessed with the seafood udon—he loves the generous variety of seafood in it. And my daughter can't get enough of the Cherry Blossom roll (honestly, I don’t blame her).

This place has become a go-to for our family sushi nights, and it never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“Every saturday I get a medium pizza to go right at 3pm here at this location in Gold River CA like clock work for over a year. All the employees there are great and I really mean that, it literally has become like an extended family. However, one employee really stands out. His name is Gem and this young man is way ahead of the game with me. He usually prepares my pizza himself and makes it LOADED with fixings and cheese, I literally need a fork to eat it! To top it off, he generally see's me walking up to the door and comes out from the back with my order in hand and beats me to the service counter, then prints the receipt and I am out the door, never have I had to wait! You are SUPER GEM!! Someone there please give him a raise!! Its hard to find workers like Gem, so when you do, reward them as you should and hold on to 'em!“

“I've been coming to this location of I ❤️ Teriyaki for over 20 years and they have never failed to provide a complete and delicious teriyaki chicken dinner at a reasonable price. The service is good and the meal has always been consistently good. I highly recommend.“

“I’ve been to this place once visiting my cousin and to say it was the best steak I’ve ever tasted in my ever loving life would be a huge understatement! I don’t know when I will ever make it to that part of the country (I live in South Carolina) but when I do, Sutter Street will definitely be on the itinerary!“

“Sunflower Drive In is amazing, and their mushroom burger is next level. Perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and incredibly satisfying even if you’re not vegetarian, this one hits.

Fresh ingredients, fast service, and comfort food done right. One of those spots you keep coming back to because it never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“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!“

“Some of the best food I've had on quite some time. 🩷“

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

“Good food and good price.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I have ordered from these guys at least three or four times delivered by DoorDash and I am typically a foodie when it comes to gourmet food and these guys got it nailed down even for a pizza place- very quality and wide menu selection keep up the great work“

“Great local spot! Carry out pizza only. Love the combo pizza and jalapeno knots“

“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! ⚡️🤘🏼⚡️“

“Fast service and very authentic ambiance and food, cheerful staff“

“I won a gift certificate for a 3-course meal for 2. Went there last night. The food was amazing. Portion sizes were generous but not ridiculously so. Our waiter was attentive without being a pest, and very sweet. He really cared about what we thought of the meal. I had the wild mushroom soup for a first course, and we both had the short rib main course. It tasted delicious and the meat was so tender you could cut it with a fork.

We will definitely 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!“

“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.“

“Chicken plate was really good. Husband said it's the best rice he's ever had. My beef and lamb gyro was amazing!! Baklava was TOP NOTCH! We look forward to eating here many times again.“

“Ate here for dinner before going to the movies last week. Food was really good and the service was wonderful. Andy was very helpful with the choice of our food. 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.“

“A welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel at home and special. Almost like you are family!“

“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.“

“Best pizza in town guaranteed!“

“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.“

“We haven’t been to Chili’s in a few years but decided to drop in for an early dinner today. What awesome friendly and fast service! This was the best service we have had anywhere in recent months. Thanks to Ashley, our server, as well as the others.“

“WOW WOW WOW!!! Absolutely delicious food and great service! There were six of us and we all ordered something different off the menu and we tasted and shared everything and it was excellent…… I would not consider this to be pub food……. it is exceptional! I wish they would open one in El Dorado Hills!!!“

“Food and service are both amazing!“

“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 !“

“I liked the sushi. The all you can eat menu is good and has a lot of items. I mostly like the shrimp tempura rolls and other sushi is good too. I did feel the sauce on some of the sushi made the sushi taste too sweet but overall a good dining experience. The garlic edamame is awesome, very garlicky and delicious, fried rice and miso soup was good. It's also nice to be able to order half rolls, that way you can try a bunch of different sushi“

“It’s been a long time since I’ve been this impressed by a dining experience. The food here was phenomenal, the service was fantastic, and the entertainment was outstanding. It’s a small intimate space so I recommend making a reservation but this place is 100% worth a visit. I will be back. Try the coffee when you visit it’s to die for.“

“Went back to the Melt this afternoon for a burger and shake. This place never disappoints. Good food and great service thanks lacy for the hospitality and service
Will continue to come back. Always a delicious meal and atmosphere.
Thank you for the service you deliver“

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

“Cute little place! Fresh and delicious 🤤“

“We love Aimee ( manager ). The service , people and vibe is always good ! Our favorite spot“

“This place is a true gem! My husband and I have ate here twice now and we have NOT been disappointed. Our first time there he ordered a burger of some sort and I got the grilled chicken sandwhich in a lettuce wrap. Both were absolutely delicious. Our second time around he got the pesto crepe with fries, and I got the Mediterranean crepe with salad. We both agreed that my crepe was better, despite our love of pesto, but both were good. The fries and salad hit the spot as well, mostly because their ranch dressing is fantastic. Prices were definitely reasonable. I look forward to trying other things on the menu. Whether you want savory or sweet there's something for everyone!“

“Always a great time! The food is very fresh, and the staff are extremely welcoming. I highly recommend the chicken Gorgonzola pasta, it’s me and my wife’s favorite item!“

“The old-fashioned are so good and the brunch menu never disappoints❤“

“Silver Sake “Where Everybody Knows Your Name”. This is the go to place for sushi. It’s more than good food. It’s an experience. The staff from chefs, wait staff, to kitchen staff, greet, engage you with friendly smiles. The food is always amazing my kids enjoy their chef choice (Omakase) rolls. Matter of fact we always leave it up to the chef to make whatever they see fit to serve us. Never been disappointed and always left our appetites pleasantly satisfied. When it’s time to leave, as you walk out the doors, you’re always sent off with “ We’ll See You Tomorrow”. It takes every ounce of willpower to not return the next day.
Silver Sake Carmichael’s Hidden Gem!“

“delicious food and good customer service“

“This is a small Filipino bakery in a commercial area near Dutch Bros. You have to order the bread and other baked goods at the cashier so there was a short line every time I visited.

- XL senorita bread with cream cheese: the bread was soft and fluffy. The cream cheese gave a tangy and creamy taste to the bread.
- Ensaymada: my favorite! The bread was soft and buttery. The buttercream on top was sweet and creamy.
- Turon: sticky goodness! The wrap was crispy and sweet (but good sweet - not overwhelming). I wish there was bigger banana piece inside.“

“great food and great service Thanks to the wonderful staff“

“First time great food from out of town enjoyed it.“

“I've been eating at this place for years. I'm so happy they've survived the challenges that come with running a small mom and pop shop, including the pandemic when a lot of businesses didn't survive. Their food is craveworthy, their service is always pleasant, and I appreciate that their operation is very clean. This place is a real gem, and if you haven't tried them yet you're missing out. This is my go to cheese steak any time the desire hits (even better than Capriottis!)“

“the best place for lunch in sacramento been coming here for years and years the food is always amazing and the staff is top of the line this is a sacramento staple a must try place to come eat and visit i promise come try there food and you will always come back for more“

“They are finally reopen after almost two years of being closed we heard it was open thru some friends and it was a soft opening so it was only friends and long time regulars inside and they treated us like family. The new look is so open and a lot of natural light that looks amazing. The food was great. It was well seasoned and flavorful. The turkey sausage was huge the eggs were cooked perfectly and the potatoes had a good texture. The French toast was great and the fruit bowl was fresh my wife said the hash browns were cooked great and she loved the pancakes. I would recommend you try it out if you’re not looking for breakfast then I would recommend the Highlands melt or the Philly melt or my go to burger is the mushroom Swiss burger. The mushrooms are sautéed and the cheese is melted perfectly holding everything together. The food is amazing.“

“Party room was a nice size for large gatherings“

“Clean organized professional friendly service!
Thank you for offering the community a fair price and great value for fantastic healthy cooking!
Beef and lamb Shwarma was the best I've ever had!
All food is very healthy

One critique is to keep prices the same however could you provide an option to pay for example hummus and maybe garlic sauce option for your combos. Maybe $1.99 extra more for combo meals.
The meal would be elevated to offer hummus and garlic sauce with your combo meals.“

“had an amazing time at Yard House. The atmosphere was lively and welcoming, perfect for relaxing after a long day. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was just right. The food came out fresh and full of flavor—especially the appetizers, which were a hit. I also loved their huge selection of drinks; there’s truly something for everyone. Overall, a great place for good food, good service, and a great vibe.“
