50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Richmond

“Great restaurant in the heart of Richmond’s 23rd st! I’ve always grown up in Richmond and have passed this restaurant until the students I taught swimming told me about it! High quality food and many options to choose from! Owner and staff are very friendly. I would recommend Phila Burger to anyone! 😄💯“

“The food and service are really good im a local and me and my family come here a lot whenever we arw hungry. I love the nacho fries because they make them with nacho cheese instead of shredded cheddar. Also ive had breakfast burritos at multiple places in the area and the ones here blow any of those out of the water, the regular burritos are good too. All the food taste fresh and cooked with care not assembled quick and sloppy, the whole menu is solid and i plan to keep coming in the future.“

“There is a decent variety of choices for vegans/vegetarians. I often get their Vegetarian Chicken Rice Clay Pot (substitute yellow rice for white rice and oyster sauce for vegetarian sauce). I also enjoy their Stir Fried Tofu & Peanut Sauce over White Rice.“

“Great local restaurant, friendly staff, and generous owner. Definitely make this a stop on your local Richmond food tour!“

“Like the food. Music was too loud. Service was great. A bit pricey for those on a fixed income.“

“Great beer, food and service“

“All of their food is delicious🔥🤤😋“

“We stopped here while on a trip from Nebraska. We had been in the car all day and we were starving and looking for a place to eat. We stopped here and it was so freaking good! Handmade and large portions. It definitely hit the spot and Ali, our server, was so polite and patient. He was professional and super friendly. Great place to eat!!“

“Great food, relaxed environment, great place.“

“Best food and best service!“

“Great tasting breakfast, friendly staff - great neighborhood cafe.“

“This place is delicious. I live in Berkeley and it has kinda ruined to other kebab places for me. It is so flavorful and good. I do take away, as they don't serve beer and the atmosphere is very casual but there are plenty of seats ant tables.“

“Came to eat here because we wanted to try something new and we were not disappointed. We tried the chicken, carnitas, lengua, chorizo, asada and pastor. All were flavorful i think my favorite was the chorizo :) the only Down side is that it’s a small place 4 spots to sit inside and the rest of the tables are outside. I’m not sure of they have bathroom either but I will definitely be back to try the other items on the menu !“

“This little burger joint is like stepping back in time to the 50s. The burgers, fries and shakes are great, really hit the spot! No indoor seating, but theres outdoor chairs and benches and plenty of parking. Very economic pricing, efficient service.“

“That pizza was 🔥🍕🔥🍕❤️‍🔥💯“

“Amazing noodles! I ordered the special noodle with extra spicy red soup, and it was absolutely delicious. The broth was rich, flavorful, and perfectly spicy—not just heat, but real depth. The noodles were chewy and cooked just right, and the portions were very generous. Super satisfying and authentic. Definitely coming back again. Highly recommend for spicy food lovers!“

“muy ricos tacos y económicos 😅 excelente corazón de tacos!!“

“I definitely enjoyed the Mango Fried rice dish along with the garlic noodles. Had Thai Iced Tea, which is always a treat. I did call this order in for pick up. When I got there I had to wait a minute, because they were busy but it wasn't long. They gave me an extra Thai iced tea on the house, I didn't need it. Yet it shows the type of business I'm eating at. The ambiance is very welcoming. The art work on the walls of the culture is beautiful. Would recommend friends/family to come and try this place out.“

“I had the pleasure of dining at this restaurant, and it exceeded all my expectations. The service was prompt, and the staff made us feel right at home. The food was a culinary masterpiece. The restaurant's ambiance is serene and tastefully decorated. A must-visit!“

“I'm not a fan of spicy food, but I am a fan of flavorful and delicious food! This place is the real deal, and worth EVERY dime spent. I can customize my food by asking for nothing spicy... and they comply! However, I must say that I'm addicted to the Crab Fried Rice!!! I don't have to customize any of it. I was even brave enough to order the Tom Tom soup which is Hot and Sour soup. This soup is a tasty medicinal soup for any stomach issues or cold and flu issues. What I like the most about this soup 🍲 is that my feet are dancing while I am basking in this flavorful dish You owe it to yourself to get wrapped up in the warmth and and flavorful aroma while healing your body and soul. I call this soup "A vacation in a bowl" and I challenge anyone to step up and try it, You'll thank me mm for the recommendation 😎👍. Toodles to all as I send you blessings, peace 🕊️ and safety to you and your loved ones ☺️🙏😎.“

“So happy to find a delicious and friendly restaurant that doesn’t close in the afternoon in my neighborhood. We have been there several times in the past couple months and I’m still trying new things on the menu. My husband tried the ribs which he said were the best he’s ever had and half the serving went home with him. It was huge! Desserts are exceptional especially the flan. I’m still exploring their vegetarian options but so far my favorite is their version of chili relleno. Come and relax and enjoy the food and friendly atmosphere!“

“I get my lunch takeaways from here. Had a craving for eggplant in garlic sauce. Note: their lunch specials include soup and salad only if you EAT IN. I got an egg roll with my special, so I was happy. Food was hot and yummy, enough left for a light bite at dinner.“

“Excellent food in a clean, comfortable, casual setting.y go to place for comfort food close to home. I recommend it to my friends and colleagues.love the Dragon Beef 🥩“

“The food is soooo good, feels like I'm eating moms cooking. I drove past them and decided to give it a try since they are fairly new. The staff was welcoming and friendly, and they even have Karaoke on Friday only . The vibe was similar to a family get together, and the portions are generous. Def coming back again“

“DAMN GOOD MEXICAN FOOD! I don't care what anyone says in the reviews, anyone giving this place less than a 4.5 does not know what they are talking about. This place is literally one of the only good places to eat authentic Mexican food. Their regular burritos are 10.95 and they are literally the size of other restaurants that charge you 13$ for "super" burrito and them shi be nasty. Bomb ahh asada fries, the guacamole is so good, it has a perfect mix of lime, pepper, salt and avocado. The tacos taste the same as the ones do in mexico, you want authentic? This place has tacos that are literally the same thing that they sell in Mexico, literally where tacos come from! (Specifically the ones from guadalajara, those are the ones it reminds me of). Burritos are fantastic. The asada is the best from every other taco place. If you want to find a better place you have to drive at least 30 more minutes south/southwest. This is an honest review by a real Mexican, not a gringo that only knows shell tacos and chimichangas.“

“My family and I have been going to El Sol since 1984. The food is excellent, reasonable, large selection, quantity and the staff are so friendly, it’s like one big family. Their enchilada sauce is my favorite!“

“Food: 4 stars- good taste, texture, temp. 5 stars for presentation.

Service: 5 stars- prompt and friendly!

Location: 4 stars- Parking lot shared with several other businesses, so parking can be a challenge. Taco truck and seating area were extremely clean (5 stars for cleanliness).“

“Great food. Enjoyed the TVs. Great for a date or just hanging with friends“

“Best lumpia ever, always fresh and crisp with just the right amount of filing“

“This place is perfect for halal grub food - the owner was incredibly kind and offered us a slice to try while we waited for what we ordered. The food was phenomenal. Service was phenomenal. Also noticed that they have Lucuma / egg fruit ice cream that I cannot wait to try next time!“

“The food was delicious, this location definitely deserves a high ? rating than it has. From the moment we entered the staff were happy to greet us and we were given chips and salsa right away. The food did not disappoint flavorful meat and a well packed burrito! I highly suggest stopping by.“

“My daughter treated me to lunch. I had the Crispy Shrimp. It was delicious, and the right amount to enable me to finish my plate. There was no line. We were seated as soon as we entered. Usually, there is a long line because the place is popular. Our server, she was awesome.“

“Have been here a couple times, and it’s always utterly delicious. Plus, the folks who work their are so kind and friendly. I asked for veggie tacos one time, and not only were they flavorful and overflowing, but they even checked to see if I wanted their fresh handmade tortillas — anyone can do a great meat taco, but veggie tacos are harder to pull off without actual spices and attention to detail. Salsas are fantastic. I am in love with this place.“

“NOTE: El Paisa in Oakland, and this place, are neck to neck in the east bay taco competition.The best suadero and carnitas tacos I've had East Bay, hands down, sometimes even better than El Paisa in East Oakland and I never ever thought I would say that. The old Guy running this place knows how to work a Comal (Choricera/Fritanga)I'm still reeling from the implications.Was told that the neighborhood's a little rough which is fine with me, I'd advise out-of-towners To come in the afternoon though. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. Taco heavenUPDATE: One week later, and I've had tacos there five more times and each time it just got BETTER.UPDATE: after three months eating there, I realize they have hit-or-miss days.“

“I told my friends about this restaurant with my highest recommendations. I go to this restaurant often. I get very good feedback from my friends. The dishes they serve are great and the team is welcoming and cooperative. always when we visit this place we pass a pleasing time. highly recommended.“

“I love Morton's. The appetizers, entrees, desserts, the amazing service, cleanliness, everything! Yeah, you can say that fine dining like this is pretentious, but just enjoy and embrace it. You're not only paying for delicious high quality food, but you're paying for royal treatment, presentation, the beautiful ambiance,“

“I love this place! From the food to the service. I highly recommend trying their specials. Great place to watch a game or to play some pool (or both). Also, they have a pretty good selection of drinks at the bar for the adults. 10/10 would recommend to a friend ?

Parking: Plenty of parking for the whole plaza.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly. They have a pool table and TV screens.“

“Food is always tasting Amazingly Delicious they never fail I highly recommend this restaurant I love their Tacos ,quesadillas , Consome it’s so 🔥🔥🔥 it sends ur taste buds for a ride“

“love the Red Wet Burritos and Carnitas!!!“

“good food in the Bay area“

“Tacos de Barbacoa with consome! And they have it EVERYDAY! I had no idea this was here BUT let me say this, their Barbacoa and consome reminds me of when I was a child eating Barbacoa with my father and mother, YES IT WAS DELICIOUS! A bit pricey but that’s because it Barbacoa! AND tortillas are made fresh by hand!! Definitely coming back!“

“I’d never been here before and it was just delicious! I had chicken enchiladas a la carte and ate it for two meals as it was loaded with tasty, tender grilled chicken, melted cheese and sour cream, and tasty mole enchilada sauce. Friendly staff, happy people, lots of choices on the menu. I’ll be back!“

“The food was amazing and the service was excellent. I came here with party of 10 and we were accommodated within 15 minutes. The staff was very friendly and welcoming“

“JJ’s Fish & Chicken It’s the fish for me, so fresh hot and good everything else was trash. Everyone can’t cook NOL style, the gumbo, the red beans, the jambalaya the macaroni salad and the chicken 🐓 was straight trash. Chicken still had long hairs all over the wings. That’s all 😡😡😡🤣😂 The pictures hanging with the food on them make you think the food is so good. I only recommend the cat fish. This one is located on International Blvd bka East 14th Street Oakland California.“

“Very delicious👍👍👍“

“We come here to celebrate birthdays, graduations, holidays with friends and family. Love the dim sum! Will be back again soon. Conveniently located in Pacific East Mall near Ranch 99 for shopping“

“My goto for late night (9am-11:45pm 7 days a week). Always good selection and too much food for me (doggy bags to go a must) in one setting. Also, holidays when everyone else is closed.

Vegetarian options: Always ask the waiter. They know best.

Dietary restrictions: L

Parking: Has a 17 or 18 stall Tesla Superchargers just off the I80 Central Street off-ramp in Richmond/Albany area. During the day, the parking lot gets very crowded, but mornings and evenings are fine.

Kid-friendliness: Ok, but children needs supervision.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ok. Wheelchair ramps outside with handicapped parking in-front. Several times, full with handicapped customers inside.“

“I love this place. There used to be a place right around the corner from my house in Union City and I would go there all the time. But now since I live in Hayward and I commute all the way to El Cerrito, I stopped by every well almost every morning“
