10 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Lone Pine

“Third night here in a row. My favorite truck by far of the three in town. If you want to try something that might be new to you try the cheek, so many locals love it and it’s my husband’s favorite. I love the nachos, carnitas and mulitas! Oh, they also accept Venmo now! Just an fyi!“

“We were on a family California Adventure vacation and stopped here for a quick bite. The food was delicious. Reasonably priced. And the service was great. The salsa was especially tasty. The nachos were loaded heavy with everything including fresh slice avocado. Just need a few more chips to handle all the toppings.“

“This little restaurant is the best place we have gone to. the food is absolutely amazing. everything is made from scratch. the service was impeccable and they were all so friendly. we will stop by every time we drive through. thank you for your hospitality.“

Do not pass through Lone Pine without stopping at Merry Go Round. This is hands-down some of the best Chinese food—not just in the area, but anywhere. What started as a chance discovery has now become a destination for us and a cravable stop every time we pass through, either for dine-in or take-out.

The restaurant is owned and run by a wonderful husband-and-wife team: she works her magic in the kitchen, and he takes care of the front of the house, making every guest feel genuinely welcomed and cared for. The food is incredible—fresh, plentiful, wholesome, and absolutely delicious (and yes, it makes fantastic leftovers).

What truly makes this place unforgettable is the kindness. We first discovered Merry Go Round years ago when we were stranded in Lone Pine during a blizzard on our way from Los Angeles to Mammoth. Not only did they feed us beautifully, but they even packed extra food for our drive, just in case.

It’s a true hidden gem—warm, generous, and unforgettable. We’re always grateful we found it, and we’ll keep coming back.“

“So good to have a healthy steak after a long day driving. Very welcoming and in brilliant location.“

“Pizza was bomb. The dough was crunchy on the outside soft on the inside. Toppings were filled to the max. They did not cut corners. Their service was impeccable. And if you ask for something they delivered. Honestly, I would definitely come back here again and again.“
