50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Hayward

“Best Indian Restaurant in Hayward. Food is so delicious and taste amazing. We tried Briyani, Garlic Naan, Noodles, MoMo(Dumplings), butter chicken and everything was amazingly delicious.“

“It was my first time here, and I thoroughly enjoyed my meal. We ordered a variety of dishes, including dhai bata dev puri, tandoori chicken, butter chicken, kulchas (onion and paneer), chole masala, and kadai paneer. The service was excellent, and the food was simply amazing. The meat was tender and flavorful, while the chaat was a delightful burst of taste. The kulchas were soft and fluffy, and the butter chicken was perfectly balanced, not too sweet. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience.“

“Amazing burger, amazing tastes, the best cheese burger I have ever had in Falafel flame Hayward mission blvd. I strongly recommend this area for everyone Best of luck Hashmatullah faqiri“

“We loved belle! She was a great server!“

“The food and service here is wonderful, get as many flavors of the fried chicken that you can. Surprisingly, even the boneless fried chicken is fantastic – it’s made with chicken thighs, so it still has a crispy skin and dark meat texture.

My wife and I visited during a workday lunch hour so the owners, a mother and her son, we’re operating and taking orders. They were very nice and super hospitable. I wish them all the best with this business because they have a fantastic product.

No seating inside, as it is kiosk/countertop ordering, but there are tables outside to enjoy your food there. Super chill, nothing fancy.“

“Very friendly staff! Amy herself works the grill and always greets me with a smile as I am a regular. Clean place, plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Good food too! They are open daily till 3p, sans Mondays.

Breakfast items are fantastic! Prices are also good and they won't break your wallet. I can walk here from home. Neighborhood place and feels like you are having a home cooked meal every time.“

“Visited this restaurant today at Southland Mall and had a wonderful experience. The food was absolutely amazing , especially the chapli kabab, which was full of flavor and truly outstanding. On top of that, the owner was extremely polite and kind, which made the visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for both great food and great hospitality!“

“I LOVE PIES & was HAPPY to find out out about this place! I tried 4 of them: Beef Pot Roast, Chicken Artichoke Pesto, German Beef & Mushroom, & All American Chicken. Thumbs Up to the Perfect Crust & Flavorful stew Fillings. Look fwd to trying many more 😋👍❤“

“Chicken burrito was excellent. The chicken was perfectly seasoned. The carnitas tacos were good not as fresh as I'd like it to be but I did order later in the evening on a Saturday. I liked that the tortillas for my tacos weren't oily like other taco places. I would stop in again if I'm ever in the area.“

“These churros were literally the best I’ve ever had in my life. I don’t know how he does it but the churros maintain the heat inside but are still very crispy and buttery and sweet! We stopped by today and luckily got the last batch! A huge bag for $10!“

“Good food nice service nothing but the best“

“The only legitimate and actually JAPANESE sushi restaurant in Hayward.

How do I know?

The sushi chefs are actually Japanese.

Which of course makes a difference to us who are Japanese, married to a Japanese person for 30+ years, have traveled to Japan, actually prepare Japanese food in our homes...

“Ceviche trío was very fresh, savory and delicious! Husband had filet mignon and he loved it! Thanks for the great chefs, waiters and servers! 💕“

“Everything on the menu is delicious. The lasagne is my favorite.“

“the services was great the first time the second they mess up my order and was refunded with no questions asked I'm happy to have customer service like that.“

“driving down Main Street yesterday looking for a Dunkin' Donuts and see this cute little shop very well lit inviting. the Portuguese sweet breads are out of this world the custard tarts are to die for this place is a gem.“

“Please be more mindful about updating your holiday hours. Google showed the restaurant as open and DoorDash was still accepting orders, but when I arrived, the sign said ‘Closed for Thanksgiving.’ This caused inconvenience and could be avoided by keeping online hours updated. Thank you.“

“Been on road trip from Texas for a week definitely the best we’ve had so far. Fantastic food and service.“

“Fast, friendly, hot, and good. Hard qualities to find. I got the single cheeseburger with grilled onion. Little to much mayo for me but it was good, fries were piping hot and there was alot of them. Top it off with a pineapple shake they was very good. Great find will be back.“

“Very good food, and the chips and salsa are addictive!“

“Went on a date and got some absolutely delicious sushi 🍣 the prices are much better than almost all the sushi restaurants in the area while still maintaining quality. It does depend on what you get, but if you find the good rolls then this will become your favorite spot in downtown Hayward for sushi!!“

“Enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant, was provided excellent service and hospitality, and the food was amazing.“

“This spot is so cute, clean and service is fast and friendly! The food was delicious and they even substituted chicken for the rib for me! They gave a me lot of chicken too. Will absolutely visit again!“

“SO good! Great vibe inside the restaurant, lots of families & the staff is top-notch. And I didn't miss MNF!“

“I have been coming here for almost 14 years. And I would not change this japanese restaurant for another. Ambiance, food price, friendliness the taste of the food is wonderful. Like my mom always says : bueno, bonito y barata. Good, wonderful, comfortable prices. You won’t be disappointed!!“

“Delicious sweet and sour tofu, S&S chicken, General Tso’s chicken, and beef with broccoli.“

“So this is a small place. Food is good and served quick. Come in, sit down and order something fantastic.

I parked my emoto on the side of the building ( front) one entrance into the closed off path around the restaurant ( good bike parking) not for motorcycles ( too heavy and big) ,bicycles, ebikes and emotos are just fine.“

“We ended up here tonight after a bad experience at Chuck E Cheese in the center next door. The service was quick and the food very tasty. We decided to order more for the folks at home.“

“Los tacos al pastor estaban deliciosos pero los tacos de tripas estaban riquicimos y el servicio exelente !!!! 100% recomendado. Gracias .“

“Freshest meat I’ve ever had, cooked to order and prepared with all the fixings.
Amazing burgers but cash only and carry-out. Burgers and fries are delivered to your car by friendly staff.
It’s still a family owned business after 60 years!“

“It's a place of it all, sweet breads and mexican food too. Sometimes you can buy bread from them at a low price. There's a lot of options for the sweet bread though, sometimes with jelly, some with a whole lot of sugar, which are my favorites. The staff don't walk around, you just order, they give you your bread and you're out. Easy, but if you order genuine food, it'll take around 7 minutes for them to serve a basic meal. They have a lot of options for a bakery. And their cakes look nice, I've never eaten one but they have some for display and they look pleasing. Overall, 4 for me, I love going there for either bread, food or ordering some bread to eat at home with things like beans.“

“Super interesting experience. Took my kids to a popular park nearby (mia’s dream come true) and this restaurant was walking distance so we checked it out.
Seemed like a popular spot for locals and the owner was soooo nice!!!
The workers did not know English but I used my very broken spanish and was able to order lol
The food was spectacular too. Only slight complaint i had was that the place wasn’t very clean. Their dishes were still dirty, etc.“

“The Korean fried chicken was delicious. The staff was a big help. They helped me pick out a good bottle of cold sake.“

“So good i couldn’t even wait to take a picture of the full pizza! Look at the cheese. Very nice people work here, and I always have an experience, I’ve ordered on DoorDash and picked it up and it’s always the same great quality. I’ve recommended this spot to my mom and she loved it; and my mom is a picky lady when it comes to pizza. Definitely come here, they have more than just pizza“

“There general cook of the meat was solid. Smokiness and tenderness was spot on. Depending on your preferences the execution on the protein was top notch. However I felt the bbq sauce (medium spice) was very average. If this was better I would have given it five stars.“

“Amazing food! I go here twice a week probably and they even remember my name now. It’s all really good so I switch it up. The buche is unusual so I like to get that and it’s very fresh . Very nice people and clean. My go to is 4 Asada tacos with a chile on the side. You won’t regret making this place a new favorite.“

“This Thai/Lao spot is truly a hidden gem in the Industrial area of Hayward off Highway 92. Fortunately, it's right off the freeway at the Clawiter/Eden Landing and you can spot it along the freeway.

Offering Thai and Lao food with some sushi rolls but I'm here for the Thai/Lao food as I love Nam Khao which is Southeast Asian crispy rice salad (with Lao pork) with plenty of flavor and textures accompanied with peanuts, mint, cilantro and lettuce for wrapping.

Royal Lao does a good one with plenty of bold flavors and heat (I asked for medium). The only comment I have for this dish it wasn't crispy (and not due to take out) so no crunch to it at all...no worries...popped into the air fryer and perfect! 4/5

:: Chicken Larb - ground chicken, herbs like mint, lime and fish sauce and chili with some cucumber and salad. - Flavorful and yummy. 4/5

:: Pork skewer (4) - good and juicy but could've been charred a bit to render some of the fat and get some caramelization from the sugars. Accompanied by a tomato-based sauce 3.5/5

Service friendly and efficient. Spoke to the owner, Noi and she mentioned the place has been there a year. Great option for Thai/Lao in the area as not many unless you go to East Oakland (Champa!) and head to Stockton's Angel Cruz Park.

Highly recommend stopping by. Place has a few tables for dining (no table service) but set up for take out. Pricing in line with similar spots. I'll definitely return to try other items and for the Nem Khao! Thank you Noi!

Note: Best to call or place order online to minimize wait.“

“Good food , great staff“

“A must stop and eat restaurant! Love it!“

“The Vegan Garden is the BEST! At first I was skeptical when receiving my first order of food and the packaging; however once I opened and ate each and every packaged food item, I was pleasantly surprised !!! Each item was deliciously made and seasoned well! And let me not forget about the Protein Smoothies! They are wonderful and so delicious :-)I am a lifetime fan and already made my 3rd purchase! The staff is warm and so accommodating! Martina is wonderful!“

“Fresh, hot food! The only down side was that the flan had a slightly burnt taste & it was a bit pricey. Other than that the rest of my food was delicious.“

“Wings are always done right. Crispy and never dry. Plus u want heat with flavor get a good combo like I always get the 10 wing with festa fries large. Crispy cheese goodness. Two combos one for my care giver and one for me. I have been coming here for years and always great customer service and quality. If u think that other wing place is good. Come give them a try u won’t regret it.“

“Best place to kau kau Hawaiian 🌺 Food“

“This might be a gas station but the way they inject the chicken with seasoning makes a wonderful flavor and not to spicy like popeye's is. They have large boxes of chicken for your family to have leftovers, and your going to want them tomorrow. Deals on 25 pcs or more. Easy to fill up and get dinner at one stop!!“

“Food is so good..Honey walnut prawns..“
