38 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Pacifica

“Great food!
Super lovely owners.

I wish they would tent & put the sauce on the side of the prawns and squash when ordering togo.

Although delicious, soggy when the get home.

Dining in is pretty standard.

Brightly lit florescent lights with close seating.

If they have a home made jar of hot chili oil for sale, do yourself a favor and pick up a jar...
DELICIOUS!!!“

“I've tried all the vegetarian burritos in town, and La Perla has the best. All ingredients of a super burrito (minus meat) and comes with extra veggies inside - peppers, onions, and spinach fajita style - rather than just a regular burrito, but with less, like most places do. It stands out among the Mexican restaurants in town for vegetarian options. Very good homemade salsas“

“Decent hotpot spot overall. The experience was okay—nothing particularly special, but still enjoyable. The pork broth is definitely the highlight and worth trying since it has good flavor. Service and atmosphere were average, so it’s a fine place if you’re craving hotpot but not necessarily a standout destination.“

“Everything was great and fresh foods. Friendly service and. The spices and flavors were perfectly balanced. I especially love dal makhani, samosa and my boyfriend love their butter chicken, chicken korma and tandoori chicken. Highly recommended.“

“Food was good. Staff was friendly and was always around when you need them. Will definitely come back and recommend“

“The eatery is conveniently close to Highway 1. The inside space is appealing, the cuisine is expertly cooked, and the servers are attentive and amiable. Although the restaurant's interior is small, there are benches outdoors. There were also restrooms. A pleasant setting for a holiday.“

“Great wines and lite bites“

“their chocolate cream pie is rich and tasty!“

“A few pieces of fat in the beef sandwich but tasty, also recommend the boba place nextdoor, plus their website has the best URL ever! Fun vibes inside with some interesting snacks too. Wasn't crazy about the fried tofu I got on the side.“

“Stopped by this spot in Pacifica today, tucked away in the Linda Mar area, and I’m really glad I did. The service from David was great, the food was absolutely delicious, and the whole place felt super cozy. It didn’t feel pretentious at all, just an old-school family-owned spot that’s perfect for gloomy weather when you’re craving pasta and garlic bread.

I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and shrimp, and it was so good. The portion was incredibly generous, everything tasted fresh, and the garlic bread that comes with the pasta is HUGE. We also ordered the cheesy garlic bread on the side, and honestly, it was amazing dipped in the marinara sauce.

I’d definitely come back and bring more family members with me next time. It’s such a chill little hole-in-the-wall spot. It was surprisingly empty when we went, I think we were the only people there on a Friday night, which honestly made me sad because everything about the experience was great, and they already have really solid reviews.

There’s plenty of parking too. Please support family-owned small businesses like this. I’m so tired of overpriced, overly precious restaurants when places like this exist - great food, great prices, and genuinely good people.“

“I’ve lived in Pacifica for over 40 years and have never dined in this restaurant. Family members have told me about it and today a friend/sister said she was going to eat here and I decided to come. Am I happy that I listened and finally came in! The food is delicious, the atmosphere is superb and the staff are super, super sweet! Today I had a taste of Heaven so don’t wait like I did, come and dine now and you won’t be disappointed!“

“The food is amazing! Armando is a FANTASTIC server!!“

“I go out of my way to get La Mordida' salsa. Generous self serve salsa bar, delicious Chipotle, Verde, pickled jalapeños and carrots, and spicy peppers and mango salsa (I miss the spicy cucumber salad they used to have all the time. The vegetarian options are good, sometimes just all right, but they are very consistent and everything is very fresh. I can make a whole side dish out of their salsa bar while I wait for my order, which makes this my favorite taqueria in town. The one star is missing from my review in atmosphere, only because it's usually quite loud so I only do to-go. I've only sat inside to eat once or twice. The staff is wonderful, helpful, and kind, even with language barriers. Never gotten my order wrong“

“Yummy delish cheese steak sandwich“

“Customer service is great!“

“Highly recommend if you haven’t been lately to give Pacifica Thai another shot. They seem to have some revamped dishes in their kitchen/chef and oh so much flavor goodness. We dined in as a group of 6 celebrating a birthday and we tried many dishes. As a pescatarian/veggie lover I enjoyed their cucumber salad, pad Thai, eggplant / pad makeur, Penang curry salmon, and mango sticky rice for dessert. Will bring my family next time and start them into our takeout rotation! Highly recommend!“

“Such a great menu! These guys are the best!“

“Came here for the first time and I’m impressed! The food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the beef teriyaki and it was cooked perfectly — tender, flavorful, and the sauce was spot on. The presentation was beautiful as well. My wife had the Sushi Salmon Paradise and loved every bite, and my father devoured the Megabite roll. We also had the tempura string beans with onions — crispy, light, and just downright delicious. This place is a welcome addition to the neighborhood — you’ve got to try it!“

“Fantastic All-You-Can-Eat Hotpot Experience!

I recently visited Grand Hotpot next to Safeway, and it exceeded all expectations! The ample parking and the prominent sign make it easy to find. What sets this place apart is its reasonable pricing for an all-you-can-eat feast.

My group of 9 opted for the VIP room service, which was a fantastic choice. The added bonus of karaoke in the VIP room enhanced the overall experience. The 90-minute all-you-can-eat concept, along with the self-service all-you-can-drink option from the refrigerator, makes it a great value.

The sauce station is a standout feature – I enjoyed mixing my own unique flavors. The customer service was exceptional, with attentive and friendly staff. The speed at which the food arrived was impressive.

Overall, Grand Hotpot deserves a perfect 10/10 for delivering a memorable dining experience. I’ll definitely be returning soon!“

“The meat was tender and smokey with rich flavor. The ribs were tasty. My wife liked the brisket, it was moist and had good texture. The beans were ordinary. The slaw was good. Everyone liked the corn bread.“

“Great pho, pork chops, wonton noodles soup 🍜 and wide option of rice plates and dry vermicelli bowls. I’m so glad we have a great Vietnamese restaurant in Pacifica. Highly recommend.“

“i seldom dine-in in this place but always when i crave for some pizza and especially a great delicious pasta VIVA ITALIANO IS THE BEST @ pacifica, ca. They served always the food freshly cooked and it’s really delicious and the people that worked there are friendly. Worth everything!“

“Great food and love supporting local Pacifica restaurants!“

“Absolutely a hidden gem in Pacifica!! FRESH FOOD!!! Your order will take a little longer, so be patient!! This is not your ordinary Chinese Restaurant that the food is just sitting there a reheated. I don't go to any other Chinese Restaurant EVER!!! I moved and now I make the 4-5 hour drive to just come here!!“

“My son took me here for lunch - we’d been meaning to try it. We were very pleased - amazing view with tiered tables so other guests aren’t blocking the view. The service was exceptional and the food was delicious and nicely presented. As a nice addition, there was a pianist playing while we dined which added to the ambience. We will come back because it was such a nice treat. One of those places that makes me love living in California!“

“I love pad Thai pad see Ew bbq chicken bbq libs for 5star“

“Breaker’s is a great comfortable place to get a broad variety of “comfort food” at a reasonable price. Staff are very welcoming and attentive. Portions are definitely biased towards large. Our favorites are Crab Panini, Patty Melt, and Monte Christo. Definitely an affordable casual good quality restaurant close to picturesque scenery with numerous hiking trails.“

“My favorite Chinese restaurant. We eat there each time I visit my family at Daly City and they also do home delivery!“

“Humble Sea in Pacifica feels like a foggy day that decided to become a brewery—in the best possible way.

You walk in and it’s all soft light, ocean air sneaking through the doors, and that low hum of people who clearly planned to stay longer than they said they would. It’s got that laid-back surf energy, but without trying too hard to sell it. Just… easy.

The beers lean hazy, juicy, a little playful. I had one of their IPAs and it felt like drinking something that didn’t want to fight you—smooth, citrusy, just enough bite to keep it interesting. It’s the kind of place where you say, “I’ll just try one more,” and suddenly you’re deep in a flight you didn’t plan on ordering.

There’s usually a food truck situation going on outside, which completes the whole experience. Nothing fancy, just good, satisfying food that pairs perfectly with a cold beer and that slightly moody Pacifica backdrop.

Service is friendly in that genuine, local way—no script, no attitude. Just people who seem stoked you showed up.

It’s not flashy, not trying to be the next big thing. It’s better than that. It’s consistent, comfortable, and quietly excellent—the kind of spot that becomes part of your regular rotation without you even realizing it.

“Good breakfast place in Pacifica. The portions are satisfying and fresh. The ambiance is simple and like the classic small town diner; this is a good thing. Service is friendly and prompt, with several check-ins for more coffee. We’ve taken grandkids here to celebrate birthday breakfasts. Price can be high, but the quality is good. Plenty of parking.“

“I've been dining at this restaurant for club events for several years. Our club receives a varied menu: prime rib, Chicken Cordon Bleu, salmon or surf and turf. The price of our meals include wine, hors d'oeuvres, dessert and gratuity. That's pretty reasonable given today's expensive eateries. The staff is friendly, personable and professional. Food is prepared quickly and efficiently. I recommend this restaurant for small parties/groups. 😊“

“Great place for families. and go to after kids games. Val & Max very customer oriented.“

“Great Taqueria! Carne Asada bowl and a super burrito were great. One thing that was different to other Taquerias I've been to, is the self serve tortilla chips! You get an empty bowl, and you fill it up yourself. Quite nice change. Recommend this place if you're in the area“

“Bonito lugar con linda vista Asia el mar“

“Great all around restaurant! appraiser's, pizza, and dinners! Great Family Place!“

“Ok, so, I love a good pozole, but I also have some stomach issues that make it so I can’t really process hot spicy food well, so I often can’t find a pozole that works for me and still is deep and rich like I want. Their pozole here is a rare and delicious exception! It’s rich deep broth sings and the hot oil is in the side so I was able to dig in and have an amazing lunch before heading to the beach to chill out for a bit. I’ll be back, often.

I also had their carnitas burrito and it slapped pretty hard too.

That said, the quesadilla was just a bit meh.“

“We came in for a late lunch after checking into our hotel. The food came out fast, I think the owner was our waitress. Their gator sauce was to die for! We did fish and chips and two orders of calamari! I even told one of the neighbors in the hotel to go try it for their lunch today! Can’t wait to go back to visit!!“

“Looking for something festive to share for a quiet Christmas Eve and suddenly thought can we get sushi delivered? Why, yes: yes we can!

So we ordered online, it came, and it was awesome. We now have a new delivery tradition for next year. Thank you, thank you, thank you and happy holiday“
