50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Paso Robles

“A most wonderful experience. The food was unforgettable!“

“What an incredible dinner! The food was some of the best I've ever eaten, highlighting the bounty of the local farms. One dish I'll never forget was an egg custard with the silkiest texture possible, topped with corn that tasted like summer itself and bacon with the perfect amount of smokiness. The wine pairing was fantastic, with wines from local producers and from afar, always perfectly complementing each course.

But what really sets Six Test Kitchen apart is the accessibility of the team and the space. Because they do a lot of the prep right there in front of the counter, there was a lot more opportunity to have a conversation about the food, learn about the techniques, and hear the story of how each dish came together than in most restaurants of this caliber. A world class meal, with smaller-town pacing and friendliness. Highly recommended!“

“We have a marvelous meal, everyone enjoyed!!“

“We had a truly memorable anniversary dinner at The Restaurant at Justin. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. The food was exquisite—highlights included the halibut crudo, lamb, pasta, and a series of creative and delicious amuse-bouche selections. The kitchen was also incredibly thoughtful and accommodating of our dietary needs.Dessert was equally impressive, providing a perfect finale. What truly elevated the evening, though, was the wine pairing—easily the best I’ve ever experienced. Each selection was thoughtfully chosen and complemented the dishes with precision and elegance.The service was just as outstanding as the food. The servers were warm, attentive, and deeply knowledgeable. They introduced each course with care, explained the ingredients and preparation beautifully, and ensured perfect timing throughout the meal. Their genuine hospitality made us feel truly welcomed.

Chef Rachel’s artistry with fresh ingredients shone through in every dish, and truly justifies the Michelin star. The harmony of flavors and presentation reflected a high level of craft and creativity. A phenomenal experience from beginning to end—highly recommended, and can not wait to go back!“

“Consistent! And the Best! The staff, service, quality of food and atmosphere are first class! I'm a resident of Paso Robles. This is absolutely the best restaurant in town! I would highly recommend.“

“We have the ability to buy Justin Isosceles at home in WI so that particular wine brought us out here to Paso for the first time. The curves & hills you need to drive out to the winery on Chimney Rock road are well worth it!
You are greeted at the door & shown to your table. Karley was our wine educator for the day. She shared with us dark, delicious reds that were all estate grown and a crisp, yet smooth Chardonnay from Monterey county. We snacked on some focaccia while enjoying the beautiful scenery & mouthwatering wines. We have a few bottles that will highlight our table back home.“

“My son and daughter in law have been members for a while and when coming to visit us in Palmdale they have shared your wine with us. I was out visiting and wanted to join your club. They setup an appointment for wine tasting and to pickup their wine. It was a truly amazing experience and the exemplary customer service was top notch! Mahalo Nui Lia (thank you very much) for memorable experience. I’m so happy I joined your wine club!“

“Awesome place with friendly and knowledgeable staff!“

“muy buen servicio y muy rica la comida“

“Sculpterra is such a vibe! It’s not just wine tasting, you get this amazing sculpture garden with live music and a really chill atmosphere. Bruce, wine educator, was super cool and made sure we had a blast. The food truck hit the spot, too, and we even got 10% off! Definitely worth the drive, perfect spot for a day out.“

“Soon to be Pius Vineyard, Anthony V. ,the wine maker is excellent at his craft. Tasted an excellent 2021 Cabernet with a great finish. I recommend visiting and tasting.They have embarked on a complete remodeling that will modernize the experience, Best of luck to you!“

“An umami pairing experience with LXV Wine and Bakersfield’s Noodle Bar. LXV owners and the chef from Noodle Bar matched the wines and meals perfectly👌🏼Pairings with LXV Wine is a must do experience!“

“A Hidden Gem with Exceptional Service

Torrin is an absolute delight! We were greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality from the moment we arrived. The staff here truly go above and beyond to make every guest feel welcomed and well taken care of. Their knowledge and passion for wine are evident, and they are more than happy to share their expertise, making the tasting experience both informative and enjoyable.

The wines themselves are superb—each one a true testament to the craft and care that goes into the winemaking process. Whether you're a seasoned wine enthusiast or just beginning to explore, there's something here for everyone to enjoy. The ambiance is perfect for a relaxing afternoon, and it's easy to lose track of time.

Torrin is a must-visit for anyone in the area. With friendly staff, excellent service, and wines that will impress even the most discerning palate, it's a place you'll want to return to again and again. Cheers to the team at Torrin for creating such a wonderful experience!“

“Just had an amazing experience at Eberle. Kirk, our tasting guide, possessed a wealth of knowledge about the vineyard and its history. He could not have been more entertaining, informative, and just generous with his time and tasting! Thoroughly enjoyed all the wines- all the reds have elegance and depth- but are less in your face than some California reds,but so smooth, lovely and enjoyable. We will be back!! In the day and age when everywhere is reservations only and super pricey, Eberle is a breath of fresh air- with years of quality to back up their stellar reputation.“

“Delicious and creative plant-based food combining great flavor with heart. I love the spicy Buffalo Chicken sandwich, the black bean taquitos, the Avalon burger with arugula and vegan Gouda cheese (!), and the avocado taco! Want to try everything on the menu! 5-stars for flavor, creativity, service, and location! Love Ziggy’s!!“

“Awesome location, beers, food and staff!“

“My spouse and I visited Calcareous in mid-March for a Cabernet tasting that was out of this world. We tasted a variety of wines from different vintages that were all outstanding. Each was beautifully made and are a great value for their price point. Our host, Nate, explained the wine characteristics, production details, and winery history. He expertly answered endless questions about the local wine community and other wine trivia. The whole experience was just great.“

“My favorite breakfast place great service, great food, I had been been going here for years, now when I come into town to see my girls, I take them here for our daddy/ daughter date, it’s our special thing to do“

“very good place to eat. food is very good.“

“Delicious food, great portions, great atmosphere and friendly service! Love this place!“

“We stayed there through harvest host on Saturday night. We were greeted promptly and they showed us where to park our RV. Wine was great and tastings were reasonable priced. Lots of parking and lots of tables. Some seating inside and out. They often have entertainment and we got lucky they did the night we were there They had a kids movie night inside the open air tasting room and parents could hang out and taste wine. We especially loved the Zinfandel and the other blends. The rose was good too.“

“This should be a stop on everyone’s list when going to Paso Robles today’s wine. The regenerative farming techniques are incredible. Great to see the animals working on the farm. Staff is very well trained. There is an EV hook up with a trickle charge, which was super helpful to give us a few miles until we got back to Paso to charge up.“

“Our visit to Alta Colina was one of the highlights of our trip. It’s a smaller, more intimate winery with a truly beautiful setting—and that made the experience feel personal and special right from the start.

We were warmly welcomed by Maggie, who was absolutely wonderful. Her hospitality, warmth, and the way she made us feel like family really stood out. There was also another team member assisting us whose name I didn’t catch, but she was equally kind and attentive. As someone who works in the hospitality industry, I deeply value that kind of genuine connection and care.

We also loved that Alta Colina feels a bit off the beaten path—it’s not overly commercial, and you can tell the focus is on quality wine, authentic experiences, and supporting something truly local. The wines were excellent, and the whole experience left us feeling inspired and grateful.

Thank you to Maggie and the entire team at Alta Colina—we’ll definitely be back, and telling friends about this gem.“

“CaliPaso is one of my favorite places in Paso Robles. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, mildly exciting with sports generally on the large screen TV and a super friendly staff. Their wines are wonderful and reasonably priced. It’s just a nice place to spend time with friends old and new.“

“This is our first Winery Tour ever, and Austin Hope was the first winery of our day, so we didn't really know what to expect. Upon arrival, were warmly greeted with a glass of white wine, then escorted to a corner cabana with the backdrop of the vineyard! At first, I was a bit hesitant seating outside because it was March and this year has been unusually cold, but the hostess assured me that they had heat lamps and blankets. Sure enough, with the beautiful flame heat lamp and the soft warm blanket, we were comfortable and cozy, and settled into a wonderful experience. I forgot who was our server, but she was very knowledgeable about the wines, and also personable and caring. She make sure that we were comfortable, and our young daughter had sparkling water in her wine glass so she could (kind of) participate with us. I highly recommend their Charcuterie tray, which has a great assortment of wine, meats and nuts. I love how our server explained the wine at each pour, then leave us ample time to enjoy the glass and talk. She also brought us handwarmers to keep our hands warm. There were so many small caring touches that truly made our first winery tasting experience so wonderful. I'm not much of a wine person, but I ended up loving their wine too. After our tasting at Austin Hope, the other wineries just couldn't compare. Thank you very much for a first winery experience that I will never forget. I will definitely be back!“

“Beautiful winery ?. The food was Amazing. Our server Kristie was perfect. The Cave tour with Tim was Devine and so worth the time. Tom is a true Historian and knew all the history of this property and all the wines. Amazing experience and would highly recommend it.I almost forgot about all the wines that are the best wines on the Central coastal area !!!! ?“

“I just visited Steinbeck Winery, and it was truly incredible! A big shoutout to Brian for taking us on one of the best wine tours I've ever had. His knowledge and passion for wine really elevated the experience. And the wine? Absolutely excellent! Every sip was a delight. If you’re in the area, this place is a must-visit for wine lovers. Can’t wait to go back! ?“

“Food was decent, but the value for breakfast is not good. Coffee is SEVEN dollars, a bottle of beer here is 6 for comparison. Only 1 piece of toast with my omelet? The place was ok, but I felt like I was being nickled and dimed. I was able to walk down the street and get Amazing coffee for $3“

“Great staff and atmosphere! The wines were incredible. Especially the Zinfandel! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! 🥳🥳“

“This place is amazing from the wine to the staff to the views. Such a friendly laid back place. Can't say enough about Croad my favorite winery“

“Made to order. Delicious. We had the special: 2 calzones (huge), 2sm salad and 2 soda. This was perfect for us. -🏍 from El Paso, Tx“

“Excellent food. Try the pan seared Salmon. Delicious.“

“If you're a wine enthusiast looking for something truly special, Diablo Paso is a must-try. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you! Be sure to ask for Deb when you visit the tasting room. She’s incredibly friendly and can provide expert guidance on the wine selection.“

“Awesome tasting room and some great products!“

“4 of us came for breakfast. Freshest orange juice ever, great coffee. Food(California omlete, spinach & mushroom omlete, pancakes and monterey scramble) all freshly prepared, well presented and delicious. Definitely recommend this place.“

“Some of the best Japanese food in the area. More of an authentic Japanese feel than most Sushi restaurants.

Kid-friendliness: It has more of an adult feel due to the quality of food but they do a great job accommodating kids and even have a kids menu.“

“Amazing Product and Top Notch Service every time!!!“

“We took the TRI tip sandwich, it was warm, and the combination of cheese and beef was really good.
The desert was crunchy, and the cheese filling worked amazingly with the pistachio.
We took the wine testing, and opaque darkness is the best one by far, it goes smooth, with deep flavors.“

“Superb wine! Incredible white and red wine!“

“Had such a wonderful tasting with Mary, we came back the next day for a pairing of bites and wines with Nicole. Exceptional experience. Chef Jeffrey’s food was perfectly paired and Nicole was very knowledgeable without being condescending. Allowed us to discover the effects of different foods on different wines. Even the”black glass” quiz at the end was illuminating. Will be back with our wine friends.“

“Had a great time doing a wine tasting at Dilecta. All the wines were fantastic and tasted like nothing else we had tried elsewhere, and our server was very welcoming and personable. Would definitely go back and recommend to any friends & family.“

“We had such a great time here at chronic cellars. Trish was so wonderful and fun to have as our server. What a great place to spend some some time and just chill, laugh, and enjoy the beautiful art work and swag. If you are looking for a unique delicious wine tasting experience that's filled with fun laughter and artful scenery chronic is the place for you. Thanks again Trish we will definitely ask for you on our next visit.“

“Spectacular view with my fav sparkling wine and most awesome live soulful rock & roll music with Donna Lu & Matthew Kim 5 stars... must visit venue“

“Aug Visit:
Stellar Winery STILL after being a member for several years now. No BS, just great wine from the bottle. The team is fantastic because the wine itself is not pretentious.

March Visit:
After visiting 12 wineries from Monterey to Paso last week, Caliza STILL stands out to be the BEST from the wine to the hospitality. The boutique rustic-style tasting room is tucked away at the end of the road beyond Booker Vineyard. Rarely do I ever enjoy every single wine from a tasting, but somehow Carl's wines have made purchasing just a single bottle or even a few bottles nearly impossible. Shout out to Tyler, Maury, and Mandy again for always making our visit memorable. We are glad and appreciative of Caliza following Covid precautions. Looking forward to next time!

Feb Visit:
QPR is absolutely on point! Hospitality is absolutely on point! Maury and Tyler were fantastic! Everyone working here is here because what they do is truly guiding the potential of the fruit. The wine speaks for itself. No overpriced wine! No fancy tasting room to curve your experience. Just honesty from both the employees and wine!“

“Off the beaten track but so so worth it! Gorgeous outdoor setting and cozy indoor space are both comfortable. Large variety of wines including unique varietals and blends and all are lovingly crafted and delicious. The cheese tray is not-to-be-missed. I haven't had a chance to try the wood fired pizzas, but can't wait to go back. My hosts were Kate and Cindy and they were both knowledgeable and friendly. Came in as a customer, left as a friend. If you have a hard time deciding which wine is your favorite, as I did, I suggest joining the wine club.“

“The food was fabulous! Great family atmosphere and very personal service. Love this place ❤️“

“Really good beer and great staff. A nice selection of fresh beers ranging from lagers to saisons to IPAs. The staff also knows beer and brewing and are great about talking shop. The only down side are the acoustics. It's my new must stop“

“Don’t leave before stopping here“

“As always Daou, never disappoints. The staff is superbly trained, and able to answer any question. The facility itself is gorgeous and you feel like you’ve gone to a different country once arriving. The fuse are spectacular and the experience will always be memorable.“

“Everything!! Give it a try 🍕🍻🍷“
