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! 😄💯“

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

“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.“

“Great food, relaxed environment, great place.“

“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.“

“I went to watch a band perform. I am impressed with the atmosphere. There is a good amount of seating. I didn't order any food. The food I saw looked really good. I recommend this place. And will go back. The place can use better bathrooms thou. They're portable toilets.“

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

“Best food and best service!“

“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.“

“To me, these are the best burritos and churros inside of the city of Richmond. I don't think it is close. I think they have very good fresh food. The service is great. The location is small and eating outside is best or to use this for takeout. But you will not regret the amazing food that they make.“

“That pizza was 🔥🍕🔥🍕❤️‍🔥💯“

“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.“

“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!“

“This place is a hidden Gem! I came here today, randomly, and ordered 5 Popusa revueltas! There were absolutely AMAZING! So flavorful and FRESH! The ladies that work there are super nice and sweet! I will be coming back whenever I’m in the east bay! Thank you Richmond Eats!!!“

“Food was great, really liked that it is served hot and fresh. Portions are good for 2 people.
I ordered: Vegetable Fried Rice, Honey Walnut Shrimp, Pork Soup Dumpling. Plus Tip Total was $70
Soup Dumpling has excellent flavors but the meat inside was a bit small compare to other places I've been.
Honey Walnut Shrimp was great! Not the usual flavors I am used to when it comes to HWS but I like it. I think they may have added sesame oil. There was so much shrimp so this was a very good surprise for me since in most restaurant I can count the amount of shrimp they put in just by looking.
Vegetable Fried Rice was good, just your normal average fried rice. Nothing stood out from how it tasted or presented.

Service was good for there was barely any people in the restaurant, it seems that the locals do prefer to order out than eat in. They are very attentive and quick to serve.
When you enter you are greeted and once seated you are handed a tablet to place your order. If you have questions you can easily flag them down. I am unsure but I don't think they have any normal size spoon because when I asked for a spoon to eat my fried rice, the choice I have was either a soup spoon, which I already have. Or a giant serving spoon. I should have just asked for a fork lol

Atmosphere, It's good. It is very bright in the restaurant and they play some music in the background. I think that it's just too bright and they need to lessen the lights.“

“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.“

“first time eating here. great place, great food. Nadir was very attentive and made sure everything was going well“

“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 🥩“

“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.“

“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.“

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

“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!“

“Very solid tacos. I got carnitas and carne asada. I should have tried the al pastor.

The tacos were packed with meat, and the presentation was perfect with the jalapeno and grilled onions. I wish the salsa were spicier and the meat were a bit spicier but the carnitas was extremely juicy.“

“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 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.“

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’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“

“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“

“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“
