50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Ladera Ranch

“I had an amazing experience, worth spending $60. Went there with my mom and the service was great. Syeda was very kind and her friendly personality was a cherry on top of all the other things the restaurant had to offer. Highly, highly recommended.“

“My family orders from Diho Siam probably about once per week. Would absolutely be 5 stars as I love their food and the employees are super friendly, but it’s really disappointing how dramatically they’ve raised their prices (literally from last week to this week). Orange chicken went from $13 to $18 overnight, cream cheese wontons went from $9.50 to $12.50 etc. To raise prices so significantly really sucks for your customers.“

“Ahairn arroy mak ka!! Kob koon ka!!“

“Delicious food, fun and inviting atmosphere, excellent service and the friendliest owners Key and his lovely wife Grace. Our local reliable go to.“

“Excellent service and excellent prices - can't remember the last time I paid less than $9 for a full lunch. And it wasn't even Taco Tuesday. Also the server remembered my name even after I left 90 min later. They even threw in some free tortilla chips After I have been sitting for a while working. So fantastic all around. Thanks!“

“BEST brunch in town! The employees are so friendly. The cocktails are delish! It’s our favorite weekend tradition.“

“Pretty good overall bagel spot. They have 1 million types of bagels and cream cheese options that you can get some great combinations going. The jalapeño cheddar bagel with cream cheese and turkey is pretty awesome.

Dietary restrictions: They have gluten-free options.

Parking: Can be busy during prime time on the weekends for breakfast. Small place, but they do have some seating. If you can’t sit inside, they have tables outside in the courtyard.

Kid-friendliness: If your kid likes bagels it is…

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“We had take out. It was prepared quickly and ready to go when we showed up. We were feeding six so we had a good selection of food to share. Everything was great and servings were generous so we will be enjoying leftovers for a while. We will be back next time we are in California.“

“Always a great experience here. Staff is so polite and friendly. Food is amazing and portions always require a to go bag. Highly recommend“

“So much fun! Came here for my birthday and they did everything right- food, ambiance, staff, etc“

“Truly outstanding. From flavor to quality to service, this experience was exceptional. The only negative was that our table was beneath a vent; therefore, we were freeeeezing. 😅 We even had an opportunity to meet Teemu (the owner) himself. Already looking forward to our next visit!“

“Never miss a stop at Zinc when I’m in the area. Can always find something I love to eat, no matter what I’m in the mood for.“

“I love this place. I’ve been coming here since it was captain culver’s…. Over 20 years ago… and the things I’m obsessed with are:1. Bombay Melt (curried chicken with secret Bali sauce, tomato, onion, and cheese atop an English muffin) served with soup of the day, green salad, or potato salad2. POG- passionfruit, orange, guava juice.They also have delicious smoothies.The place is owned by Mauricio but you’ll often find his daughters working the restaurant. :)They are lovely people with excellent customer service.You can sit inside or outside. It’s a very laid back vibe. You order at the counter, and then they will bring your food out to you or call you when it’s ready.The only thing you need to know, is sometimes they close a little early.. even though their hours are usually till 16:00, I’ve found them closed at 15:00 or 15:30. I suspect it all depends on how busy they are. So, if you want an afternoon snack, I recommend you call ahead to make sure they are still open.“

“Very well managed and great food.“

“Just ate here today for the first time and the pizza was amazing!! I ordered the bbq chicken and my friend got pepperoni. The crust was insanely delicious and crispy! Cheese to toppings ratio was on point! The mozzarella cheese sticks were also very good! And to top it all off, the customer service was 💯!! Highly recommend!!“

“We were visiting friends in San Clemente and had dinner at Vine Restaurant & Bar. The service was outstanding and the food was delish. Great experience“

“So healthy and tastes like a treat!“

“The best pork chop I have ever had! Great atmosphere and kind staffs too I will definitely visit again 👍🏼“

“The water cups had kind of a fishy smell. The curries were thick and the garlic naan was good. There was a good amount of meat in the vindaloo and makhani chicken. We weren’t a huge fan of the mango lassi. They do have a screen with Indian music videos playing which is nice.“

“Had dinner again with our favorite server, Eleasha. She never skips a beat. She’s always smiling and keeps us on our toes laughing. Love coming to see her when we are in town. Sirloin was great tonight. But we don’t come for the food. ❤️❤️“

“I am not a vegan but I must say that this restaurant is the best food I have had in a long time. The service was great and the ambience very nice. The food amazing !!!“

“12/7/22. In town for a seminar and this restaurant was recommended. Excellent pizza and excellent price. I'll return Friday and grab lunch again on my way home to San Diego!“

“Melt always gives good service, and even better food, me and my fiancé love to come here after doing some shopping for a great dinner. Food always comes out fresh and quick, gotta try the patty melt and cannot forget the garlic fries!!! 11/10 all around!!“

“We had. not been here in years and our recent visit did not disappoint. Our server Cole was excellent. The food was superb. Highly recommended.“

“Had a nice evening at Dominicos on the lake this evening. My wife and I had reservations and were fortunate to ask Kory for a patio table which he accommodated. Michael took us to our table and was very kind and professional. Pedro came by with our bread and water and said hello. He is one of the hardest working individuals at the restaurant. Eddie our server came by and took our orders with a bottle of Austin Hope and bread to start. My wife ordered a chicken breast salad and I had the chef's special stroganoff which was amazing. Unfortunately my wife's salad came out 30 minutes after my stroganoff which was a cardinal sin in the restaurant business and we mentioned it was not acceptable. Eddie apologized and we also had Steven, the GM, come by and also apologize and ensure the salad would be out shortly. The salad was delivered, of course after I ate my entree and Steven dropped off and apologetic gift certificate for an appetizer during our next visit. We also ordered an additional beef stroganoff plus an order of meatballs to take home for tomorrow. We undertake things happen and it's certainly nice to see the restaurants busy again but a party of two receiving their entrees 30 minutes apart is not conducive with quality service. I am guessing the chef either misplaced the order or overlooked the obvious and we hope next time we will not have such issues as the restaurant is very good and in a fantastic location. Michael also came back around and stated he was concerned about this mishap and would look into this. As a retired government administrator and former restaurant manager in my college days I expect the simple things like entrees being delivered at the same time to be in sync with quality service and dining. We will be back and see if in fact this was an isolated incident. Good food and ambiance plus. As a writer for Trip Advisor, Yelp and Google I am graceful in my comments and specific in areas needed improvement. Thanks you.“

“Eggplant Reuben wins!“

“Nice experience here at Chuponcito in Aliso Viejo, Ca. Party of two on a Sunday around 10:30 am. Wait was about 10 minutes as we waited in line to order our food.

It was starting to get crowded. Limited parking lot spaces, limited inside seating. Inside and outside seating available.

Clean restaurant, enjoyable background music, and friendly staff.

I did love their Banana Latte, it was sweet enough to not be too sweet. The food was good. My wife loved their sopes. I just had an omelette.

My omelette was good, just not filling. A bit disappointed there, but maybe I just eat too much!

Try it out if you are around the area!“

“Hi. I was there for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I had fish with shrimp (creole on top) . I sat in the bar & the waitress was nice but I asked her if the entry was spicy & she reassured me it was not spicy. Well, it DID have a big kick to it & I could only eat about 1/3 of it because of that. She never came back soon after she served it to ask me how it was or I would have told her it WAS spicy. Your caesar salad was DELICIOUS & I highly recommend it. And your cheesecake with raspberry topping was good too. Had a glass of wine also. Sorry but I won't be back because the entry I ordered was spicy & told it wasn't . That was disappointing.“

“Cooks is a staple in the biker community of So Cal. The food is awesome and beer is cold… Almost always live music too.“

“We ran in with only 15 minutes to eat before our movie and asked if they could serve us quickly. We ordered and the food was in front of us hot and ready in two minutes. Really delicious. They even plopped a complimentary mango pudding on our table! Definitely worth your money“

“Just had a fantastic lunch at HotnChili! The garlic naan was so yummy. We also had the chicken tiki masala & the tandoori chicken. It was all delicious & served quickly. We will be back! 💯💞💞💞💞“

“The food is all amazing - family favorites are the Bacon Quiche (it goes fast), the pasta salad and the lavender lattes!😍“

“Best birthday dinner and celebration! Alix was a great server and the Chouffe brewery representative added to our great experience. Having spent a lot of time in Brussels, we always love and order the moule and frites. Superb! Don't miss ordering the delicious side dish roasted vegetables cassolette. One other favorite we had was the trout almondine. Perfection. The flaming birthday dessert made our daughter's night. Thank you, Brussels Bistro San Clemente!“

“Great food, service and atmosphere.“

“Husband and I went there last night during Haunt Hopping in Santa Ana -- and WOW!! Absolutely delicious, filling burgers and crispiest, hottest fries! Very friendly service. Hoping they open some locations near us, but until then, we'll make special trips -- they're that good!“

“Loved their chocolate desert!“

“We were in town visiting for Labor Day Weekend and ended up meeting some friends here and it was delightful. Everyone from the hostess to random staff were incredibly hospitable. We left something on the table and someone who didn’t even wait on us chased us down to return it, greatly appreciated. Food was exceptional, drinks were exceptional, and service was equally exceptional, believe our servers name was Jazmine and couldn’t have been a sweeter gal. They had a live band that was very enjoyable and weren’t so loud you couldn’t maintain a conversation, perfect vibe for a SoCal Saturday. Happy with our decision to meet there and would 100% be a regular if we were local. Check it out!“

“Love this place! The owners are wonderful people. Every time I go I feel like I’m family. The wines are amazing (try the Olsen’s Ovation), and they are huge supporters of the live music community. Please support this incredible local business ❤️“

“excellent food atmophere and service!“

“The three of us all ordered the traditional Thanksgiving turkey diner which was pleasantly severed on the restaurant's newly remodeled terrace. The food and service was excellent and portions were more than ample so that we each had "seconds" of turkey, dressing and potatoes to take home.“

“a truly wonderful restaurant and by far the best in San Juan and one of the best in Orange County. a cozy French country side atmosphere run an absolutely wonderful family. and it will.benopem for breakfast soon and I can't wait!“

“I love Peony’s so much! The prices are great for being right in front of the beach and their portions are excellent! I work nearby and love to order food from here when I’m feeling hungry. Staff is nice and the service is quick. The food is always so delicious no matter what I order. I’d highly recommend Peony’s to anyone who comes to Laguna Beach!“

“The food is amazing!!! Knee is the best waitress ever👏👏👏👏🥰🥰“

“Came for lunch with my gran about a month after my grandfather passed. It was my gran's first outing since the funeral and i was worried but our server was this adorable silver haired woman named Rebecca. She had my Gran laughing the whole time. We ordered combos and the suggested jalapeño watermelon margaritas, which were spicy and refreshing. We needed a nap afterwards because we were too stuffed! My gran won't stop asking when we can go back. Thank you South of Nicks for lovely meal, and Thank you Rebecca, for helping a family member feel normal after tragedy. You are in our prayers“

“Super great food and staff! Our waitress was awesome and the food had great flavor. The fried pickles were perfect. The brisket sandwich had some great flavor combinations! Would absolutely recommend to anyone! The frozen huckleberry lemonade is a must try and the Pineapple Express martini is as well. Love it“

“Always have had a great experience here, and I have going here for over 40 years!!!“

“I enjoyed the smoked spare ribs and the spicy stir fried prawns with veg Dessert was great too“

“Had a wonderful evening out with my wife at Ironwood Cellars in Laguna Hills. We had reservations for 5:30 p.m. and arrived early. We were greeted by Joe, the manager on duty, who was very kind, professional, and welcoming. Art was our server and is amazingly gifted in customer service professionalism and overall people skills. Yes, showing the love. We started with tequilla drinks from the bar, and we each had a wedge salad. Joe sent us over a wonderful Agnolotti appetizer as well, which was more than kind. The ambiance was positive and upbeat, perfect for the evening. Sergio was also quite attentive in making sure our table was serviced properly. We ordered our entrees with my wife having the halibut dinner, and I had the famous giant meatball dish. Both meals were hot & tasty and presented well. We had a terrific time, and Art surprised us with a complimentary dessert 🍨 with berries. The restaurant is so nice and offers an outdoor patio and bar seating as well. The wine list is extensive, as are the craft beers. Highly recommended.“
