33 Best Vegan Restaurants in Goleta

“Very interesting addition to the local area, not expecting Creole food in California, but welcome nonetheless! The Seafood Gumbo was full of catfish chunks, bay scallops, and a couple shrimp. It came out steaming hot and stayed that way the whole time I ate it. The cornbread was also moist and a welcome addition. They are also a breakfast place with plenty of traditional options available. Great place to get your fix without having to head to Louisiana.“

“Probably one of the best if not THE best sushi I’ve ever eaten! My first time, and now I’m a lifelong customer!“

“Great food didn’t expect to get such good food out here, I’m from Los Angeles doing a show out here and was hesitant to eat here but it was the best decision ever.“

“Who can go wrong with Kyle?“

“it's a little hole in the wall shop that makes amazing bagel sandwiches. Love stopping here for a bite when in IV.“

“This place has been our go-to for poke for the last five years, and we've never had anything less than perfect food quality. It's a family-owned business that we respect greatly. We've always been treated respectfully and felt welcomed every time.“

“Who can go wrong with Kyle?“

“I took my granddaughter. I'm not used to high priced preppie food.

Parking: Very small parking spaces. Not everyone owns those "ultra smart" Smart cars!!!! No one owns them because they died from their own car crash.“

“Such a chill place to get coffee (best in town) and work. Amazing food and even more amazing people ❤️“

“I had the green tea ice cream and it was awesome! :)“

“This place is a hidden gem (across the street from Nikka Ramen and TJs) for excellent Indian food.

The lunch buffet on Sunday is amazing even with a dosa station. They even have their signature Sri Lankan fish curry as part of today’s buffet that’s worth our 50+ mile each way drive from Camarillo.

The place is clean and nicely decorated too!“

“good portions in the tacos. very tasty and fast service. the line seems overwhelming at first but moves fast. Will definitely be back, when in the area.“

“Everybody loves a raspberry filled donut, when it’s the real thing inside! Anna’s Bakery is the place to get the real thing.“

“Day trip to Goleta for Disc Golf and hiking at Gaviota, landed us here for food afterward. Unfortunately, missed breakfast but got pizza and salad. The food was very good, but not great. We heard breakfast is what people come here for, so why not breakfast all day? Anyway, still highly recommended. We’ll be back another time for breakfast.“

“Wonderful and delicious! We came by earlier today, I had Huevos Rancheros with Asada for the first time ever and my partner had Chilaquiles. It was totally tastyyyy! (They did accidentally pit my Asada on his plate instead tho lol its ok). Glad I got to experience it on my visit, thanks so much for having us.“

“Love this place, the staff is nice, so well as all of the regulars, as this is a locals spot. The food and drinks are great as well.“

“Clean and fresh. Soup tastes delicious ❤️❤️❤️“

“what a gem! we’ve been to their food trucks at a variety of Santa barbara events but this was our first time going to their location at Santa barbara cider house and it did not disappoint. Food is fresh tasting and full of unique flavors. environment is laid back and fun for families. eventually music started playing too! didn’t know they had this location and am so glad. their entire menu is delicious! we will be back many more times!“

“I love crushcakes and come every week for lunch. The cafe food is delicious, and somehow tastes even better than you expect. Always get a freshly baked cupcake or baked good. Service is friendly, and they do a great job at retaining workers so you get to know the staff. One star taken off because the place needs a major remodel.“

“The food was pretty good. I had the Poke Theory bowl. It had good flavor and the bowls are about the right size for the price. The only issue I had was that the food had a lot of water in the bowl and so I felt it washed away some of the flavor. I also had the Galaxy Lemonade. It was really good and worth the try. Parking is limited. The seating is sort of small and only 5-7 tables in side. The owners are friendly and nice.“

“I had the imperial shrimp entree. It was delicious,healthfully cooked and had a beautiful presentation. I have had this dish many times at other restaurants ,and this was by far the best.“

“WOW, one word…DELICIOUS! Can’t believe it took me so long to try Natural Cafe! I was throughly impressed with the Mt. Fuji Stir Fry…chicken was super juicy with the perfect char broiled flavor, veggies were super fresh and cooked perfectly! Portions are VERY generous!

Will definitely be back to try other items on the menu, but this was a GREAT first visit!“

“Excelente servicio el manager Rodrigo te hace sentir en casa 🏠 Jesse y Brenda me recomendaron la margarita de mango deliciosa 😋 💯 recomendado 🏆🎗️“

“Buen servicio al cliente, y muy rápido“

“The food was great and lots of choices. It was delicious and everything was great quality. We asked for a side of bacon for our dog and they gave us this complimentary and it was the sweetest thing ever ❤️ she loved it and it made her day“

“I absolutely loved my experience at Hummus Republic in Isla Vista! From the moment I walked in, the staff was so welcoming and friendly — they really made me feel like a valued guest. The service was fast, everything was super clean, and the whole vibe of the place was upbeat and inviting.

The food? Incredible. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and made just the way I like it. I built my own bowl and was so impressed by how many options they had — delicious proteins, amazing sauces, and fresh toppings galore. It’s healthy, filling, and honestly addicting in the best way.

This is definitely my new go-to spot in IV. If you’re looking for something tasty, nutritious, and made with care, Hummus Republic is the place. Highly recommend!“

“Came here for the Pho, broth was fire, ordered the #6 and it came out to $14.95. My only complaint is that they went a little skimp on the noodles but the flavor was on point and came with all the fixings that a traditional Pho place comes with. Service was great, always checking on me and my cup was never empty. Overall good job!“

“We love this place! Food is great“

“Food is wonderful we have crab cheese wonton fresh roll, spicy noddle shrimp chicken satay everything is testy, restaurant is super clean , the owner very nice 👍“

“Lily made our experience great! She greeted us warmly and made sure our order was correct. We had a large group and she delivered our food to the table with a smile and made sure we had everything we needed. Burger and fries were great! Service was phenomenal!“

“This Taco Bell location is one of the better ones I’ve visited. The restaurant is quite clean and well-maintained, which is always a plus for a fast food spot. Parking was easy and convenient, with plenty of space available even during busy hours.

I ordered the new Cantina Chicken Burrito meal and was pleasantly surprised — the burrito was flavorful, the ingredients were fresh, and it was served hot. Definitely one of the better options on the menu right now.

Overall, great experience — quick service, clean environment, and tasty food. I’ll be back!“

“Great ice cream and delicious 😋“

“Pho spot next to Target. Nothing too out of the ordinary, has all the standard pho menu items.

I personally liked the cut of steak for the pho. It was a bit thicker than I usually have it. Broth was fragrant and onions were thin, just the way I like it.

The only issue I had was they didn't bring the vegetables that usually come with some of the pho and that the service wasn't as attentive compared to the other spots I have been to.

Would still come back for the food though!“
