22 Best Vegan Restaurants in Rancho Santa Margarita

“A wonderful evening at Todos Santos with my wife. We were greeted by Daniel the owner and chef extraordinare who took us to a very nice table in the outside patio. We started off with drinks which were made by one of our favorite bartenders Jaime! The other bartender of choice is Francisco who had the day off. Kenya was our waiter and was superb, very personable and professional. We each ordered the appetizer salad which were so good. We spoke with Daniel about the fresh fish and decided on the Sea Bass for my wife and I ordered the Salmon and lobster plate. These two dishes were amazing upon presentation and even tastier than they looked lol. I must say since we began dining at Todos Santos from when Daniel took over this place has blossomed this restaurant into the best Mexican cuisine in Orange County. With multiple awards to his credit Daniel has new menu items that he creates regularly and now opens after hours on Tuesdays and Fridays with a DJ and dance floor. On Saturday and Sunday the restaurant serves breakfast from 10 am to 2 pm and the dishes are delicious. Make a reservation and ask for Daniel. Let him know George sent you. Great place, great food and amazing people! Highly recommended“

“La Fiesta is a quentacential Mexican Restaurant, family owned & Operated, with the best chefs, recipes, daily fresh roasted salsa and best beans around So. Cal. The staff is the best at customer service & very friendly. You will love this place for the whole family!“

“Delicious and you can still get a good old fashioned malt!“

“This is the ultimate sushi spot. We have been coming here for many years for date nights and also nights with the family to celebrate and enjoy a special occasion. Everyone here knows us and we are always welcomed with big smiles and “come in, come in!” The staff and chefs here make this place feel like home, like this is our spot. It’s a very small restaurant, hole in the wall, which I absolutely love. We’ve sat at tables inside, the bar, and the tables outside are great too! They have enhanced the outdoor area with umbrellas and heaters, candles and table lamps. We always ask about the specials - go with the specials! They have sake, beer, sodas, tea - we usually get a large Asahi and share it, or ask for a recommendation on sake. The oysters and monkfish liver, when they have it, are incredible! Any and all of the nigiri is our go-to, can’t go wrong with any of the rolls too (we usually do sushi when dining in and get rolls for take out). I love the uni and unagi, chu toro and buri toro (all the toro), hamachi and kanpachi… I honestly love it all. The kids always get udon and karaage chicken with a side of white rice. This is our special place to celebrate, so grateful to have this kind of spot to go to that’s close to home. We love it here.“

“We had brisket 7oz and it was delicious! love the rolls and peanut coleslaw. Our waitress checked with us frequently and provided excellent service. Thank you!“

“Javier, the manager delivered the most amazing food last night for a thank you dinner for my Catechists. I highly recommend Alza Italian Kitchen. Every thing was superb…. Thank you!“

“Spicy and delicious, nice atmosphere.“

“Always our choice for Thai food!“

“1st time my son suggested - was not a disappointment...food was very tastful and fresh...will be back - many times...💪🏾🤙🏾“

“We’re so lucky to have this Thai restaurant in our local neighborhood! Every dish is packed with authentic flavor from the perfectly balanced Pad Thai to the rich and creamy Panang curry, it’s clear the chefs take pride in every plate. The ingredients are fresh, the portions are generous, and the spice levels are just right (with options to adjust if you like it milder or hotter).

Our go to favorites are their house fried rice and the spicy eggplant curry beef both absolutely delicious and full of flavor. We also love their Thai Iced Tea, which is always perfectly chilled and creamy a great way to round out the meal.

The staff are always welcoming and treat you like family. Service is quick, friendly, and attentive without being intrusive.

Whether you’re grabbing a casual lunch or celebrating a special dinner, this place never disappoints. A must-visit spot if you love Thai food or if you’re just ready to fall in love with it!“

“Pizzas are good and the service is excellent but the drink menu is displayed on TVs which shift so you'll have to wait to see what you want again for the whole thing to move up. Atmosphere is cool too, it does reflect the Chicago chic what with the exposed brick wall and whatnot.

Vegetarian options: Usual options such as salad and veggie pizza.

Dietary restrictions: Items in the menu are labelled with their ingredients.

Parking: Tons of parking in the free lot.

Kid-friendliness: There is a game room with pinball and a close machine as well as some other stuff.

Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible but does are not automatic.“

“I had a strong craving for Chinese food for dinner, so I decided to take a chance and order takeout from this place. I was pleasantly surprised; the chicken fried rice and mushroom chicken were absolutely delicious. Everything was spot on, and if you're looking for authentic Chinese cuisine, this is definitely the spot. They even included some white rice, crispy chow mein noodles, and almond cookies, which made me feel really appreciated as a customer. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes soon! 10/10“

“Excellent food , wine and desert and great service. Can’t wait to go back.,we are from New York and we know what good Italian food is !! 🇮🇹“

“We love this Panera Bread location and my husband and I eat here about once a week. It is always clean and you are always greeted upon entering. There are plenty of tables inside and outside, we like having the options. Our food is always so good and we feel that you get very good size portions. One of my favorite things is how easy it is too order through the app and the customizations you can do. We appreciate you all and see you soon! =)“
