15 Best Vegan Restaurants in Imperial Beach

“I’m Brazilian, and this coffee in the picture is the best I’ve had in US since I moved here (and I’ve tried coffee on both coasts!)

The mocha I had at the store was really good as well! My new fav coffee place!

Ps. If you have a Keurig like I do, I recommend using the iced coffee mode and small size, so your coffee won’t be watery 😉“

“always fresh and delicious“

“Food & Folks are always Fabulous“

“First visit. Nice restaurant. We tried the beef ravioli and lasagna; both delicious. Several other menu options sound amazing; look forward to trying those on our next visits.“

“I am new to IB and am just so impressed with Katy's Cafe! They are busy (so you know they're good!), but they get your order out quick. The staff is friendly, inviting and accommodating! I had my dog and daughter and they could obviously tell that I had my hands full and brought my order outside to me without me even asking. I have definitely found my go to local coffee shop!“

“Love this local gem. Food is consistently delicious and fresh. I have yet to dine in, but the establishment is very clean and there appears to be seating for roughly 40. The workers are kind and friendly, and the pricing is very reasonable, which is a plus.“

“Lunch was very good Enjoyed the French dip“

“After Gustave had catered an event at our preschool for the second time, he invited my colleagues and I to come by his new location in downtown, and we did! He served us personally and recommended just the right menu items for our preferences (vegetarian, spicy, mild,...), ordered them and served them. We thoroughly enjoyed the tasty hotdogs, corn and fries. Let's not forget about the drinks from the Abbey and the sweet desert: churro with ice cream! The atmosphere was casual, festive with the strings of lights and the very recently installed inflatable penguin on the roof, that conveyed Holiday cheer! Thank you Gus for a delightful evening!“

“So fun, glad we stumbled onto this place. After a walk on the Coronado beach, we decided to head south to IB. We checked out the menu on Google, as soon as I saw ossobuco taco I was sold. Parking in the lot by the restaurant was 2 bucks, score! It's a cash lot only FYI, and the lot was pretty dead despite the beach and boardwalk being full of people on a Friday evening. The restaurant is mostly outdoors, and they have upper patio seating to take in the view, the restaurant is super close to the shore. The entire staff was friendly, smiling, and so attentive. My husband tried a Japanese beer and he loved it, I got the Pina colada slushy, which was pretty good. But the tacos were out of this world, the ossobuco did not disappoint, so tender, so flavorful, and I think most of their tacos have that fried cheese in them. I also ordered a fish taco which was really crisp and fresh, but my husband's fried shrimp taco was unexpected. The shrimp was wrapped taquito-style then fried before added to the taco and dressed, crazy. Carne asada was tender and so well marinated, i could have eaten a plate of just that. We also had the sharable quesadilla which I highly recommend, the asadero cheese was fried and caramelized before it was put into the tortilla, which was also lightly grilled, it was mouthwatering! Two tacos each, a sharable quesadilla, and two drinks was like 55 bucks. I will be back, can't wait to try the carnitas taco.

Vegetarian options: I was impressed by the veggie options throughout the menu, clearly labeled and appetizing. We had to quesadilla, so yummy!“

“Never knew that they deliver locally! THAT,... was a great surprise“

“The food is just perfect,good portions“

“We stopped in an ordered a el diablo pizza and wings at the start of our visit to SD, didn't realize it was HUGE haha perfect with the ranch drizzled. But was so yum! We came back to try slices of other pizzas, and all were delish. Friendly staff. The Buffalo wings were delish both times too!“

“I loved the food. We got a pizza and I ordered the meatball sandwich. My only negative was that I asked for a container to take home the half of the sandwich I didn't eat. The server brought a container and then picked up my sandwich and put it in the container. Bare hands. No longer was I going to eat that sandwich.so to the servers...don't touch the customers food with with your hands.“

“Great healthy food. Best customer service and fresh seafood.“

“They always welcome in the customers and are polite and efficient. This place can get pretty busy during lunch hours but I'm always impressed by their speed. Sometimes the food is better than others but they've never got my order wrong.“
