50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Richmond

“If you’re anywhere near Richmond and haven’t stopped by Phila Burger yet, you're missing out on great food. I've tried most of the times in the menu, and I've never walked away disappointed. The food tastes amazing and hits every single time. Fresh, flavorful, and everything you want from a burger.

What really makes this place special is Sam. He’s the kind of person who remembers your face and name, your usual order, and makes you feel like more than just a customer. Honestly, at this point, I’m convinced he should just run for mayor of Richmond.

It's safe to say that many people in the Rich know about Phila Burger for good reason. But if you’re coming from outside of Richmond, do yourself a favor and give this place (and the city) a chance. If there’s one meal that’ll win you over, it’s right here.

Richmond, this is something to be proud of.“

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

“Great food, relaxed environment, great place.“

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

“Absolutely incredible experience at Huong Tra! The flavors are authentic, vibrant, and clearly made with high-quality, fresh ingredients. The balance of spices in every dish is spot on. The service was friendly and attentive, making the meal even better. If you’re looking for a standout meal, Cube Beef Steak.“

“What a fun and casual find. The place literally has the feel of a backyard, full of picnic tables, trees, cornhole toss, a small performance stage, and even some old worn couches. The food tasted so good. Selections were limited, but plentiful at the same time. Lots of choices of beverages, including alcohol and specialty. Also, the pumpkins were for sale. Permanent porta potties for reatrooms.“

“Very nice cozy breakfast-lunch café. Most items on the menu have special gourmet touches. They offer a LOT of choices! Staff is really friendly and welcoming. I have been going there since yesterday! I highly recommend!“

“All of their food is delicious🔥🤤😋“

“I've been here about five times now, and all the food has been great in terms of both quality and size, whether dining in or taking out. Very small for dining in tho, probably seating no more than 10 max, and the prices on the bottled Thai tea & coffee are not competitive with nearby boba shops (with admittedly worse service and worse food or no food at all).“

“Great beer, food and service“

“This is a family run place with outdoor seating. The food is quick, fresh and tasty. Women members of the family are nicer than the men, who can be clueless and unhelpful. Sometimes the meat is recooked in the crispy tacos which are otherwise my favorite. The flautas are also fresh and good as are the refried pinto beans.I like this casual place a lot—you can buy Russian River Brew next door at Raymnond’s excellent pizza place and sit in the sun with the locals.“

“This place was pretty good as far as some of these restaurants go in San Francisco area. The food's kind of high quality for the type of restaurant and the service is great. The hamburgers are a little bit small which I didn't really like. But overall it's better than most of the crap you get around that area.“

“Awesomely cheap tasty burgers and yummy seasoned fries. Quick service overall super great. There is no place to sit and eat or even really sit and wait. But the wait is never long. They usually clean out the milkshake machine, maybe even an hour prior to closing.“

“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 ☺️🙏😎.“

“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.“

“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!“

“That pizza was 🔥🍕🔥🍕❤️‍🔥💯“

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

“Staff seats you quick. The prices are fair, but the portions is where it is. Other Vietnamese restaurants have popped up, no offence, but they seem to cater to the American taste bud, cost more for smaller portions, and are tastewise alright. A lot of Asian restaurants cater to a broughter palette now, have a fusion look and their food. Vietnamese restaurants like this take you back to the 90s and early 00s. The music is feint, and food rice plates remind me of food taste and portions of my Vietnamese American friend's home. Please support these Family run businesses.“

“I went around 1:30 pm on a Monday and the restaurant was busy, busy, busy, but the cashier/waitress was fast, pleasant, and deserved to be tipped well!!! We ordered the lunch specials to go: Hunan Beef (it was tender with the right amount of spice and sweet and veggies) with Chow Mein (plump and juicy) and Sesame Chicken (crispy, tender, flavorful, coating on a few pieces were a little excessive..but it was edible) with Fried Rice (very tasty, wasn't dry, no soy sauce needed). Overall the food was delicious and I need to kick my own butt for not discovering this hidden gem in Point Richmond a long time ago. I think this will be my spot from here on out, and yours, if you give it a try! Side Note: the restaurant name is hard to see and needs to be repainted but it is directly across from the library.“

“The quesabirrias are quite good!🌮🧀They’re sold individually too, for $5+ each, and come with a decent consomme😋 Better than most taco trucks around here, and a better price than the now way overpriced truck by the Richmond market, which used to have the best birrias and consommé around..but it isn’t even good anymore. Super nice staff too😊“

“The pupusas here have got to be the best in the world. I was floored. There is so much good food in Richmond, and then I ate the pupusas here and it’s a whole other level. Plus they’re huge, fresh, and cheap. I went back three times last week.“

“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 🥩“

“This is my daughter's favorite restaurant that she requests for special days. We went out to celebrate her last day of the school year. She got a vegetarian super burrito, and I got a California Burrito Al Pastor made into a Chimichanga! Super Yum!“

“Karol was very attentive & responsive. This is the 2nd time we have had her as a server. The staff works as a team and are supportive of each other, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Food was beautiful prepared and presented. No pictures taken because we devoured our food, and photos were an afterthought. Thank you Richmond IHOP!“

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

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

“It should be renamed Pupuseria la bamba or at least pupuseria y taqueria la bamba. The pupusas revueltas my friend and I had for lunch that day where mmmmm... the curtido aaaaah... and the salsa, wow!!!... With that said, you would have to go try them to understand what I mean. Genuine salvadorean flavor with a nice plate presentation for those who like to photograph their food!“

“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 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“

“Tacos Los Primos is a great place for real authentic Mexican food, whatever you choose is going to be amazing!
I ordered a bunch stuff for the day laborers that were helping old lady Pucklepuss straighten up her hedgerow and got a sampler of Taquitos while I was waiting, and they were the best I've ever had!
5 ☆☆☆☆☆ for sure, no shit!“

“The food is in good season, well prepared and the portions are large. I really recommend the roasted chicken catering menu, it is delicious and delivered warm. The beans are excellent. The "fried mojarra" dish is not mojarra. It is tilapia and almost no bones compared to a mojarra.“

“yes i do i like go to the chaparro restaurant each friday because i enjoy the best food and very good service at the same time and also i see my future girl friend mary she is beautifull and a fun lady i send you a strong hug to you thanks honey and god bless you staff of El chapparro restaurant too. carlos contreras costumer.“

“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.“

“Absolutely delicious, authentic Brazilian food“

“Ive been coming to Tacos La Raza for some years and they consistently deliver on flavor. The tacos de suadero are juicy, well seasoned and cooked perfectly. I just had the packed steak super burrito and it was delicious. Salsa roja is perfect not overbearing.
My only complaint is the meat portions on the tacos are inconsistent. For some reason that bothers me.
The ladies are welcoming and friendly.
Overall, solid spot. 👌“

“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 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“

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

“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.“

“the menu i saw online was an old one—they’ve raised their prices significantly since. 12.99 for a regular burrito, 14.99 for a super burrito. burritos are smaller than other neighboring taquerias, so you’re not getting as much bang for your buck. nonetheless, a pretty good burrito. it’s in a gas station but there are some stools where you can eat inside if you wish.“

“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.“

“Very delicious👍👍👍“

“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“

“The taste of the food that made them unique is not lost. However, Ive gotten food from them since i was a kid; Over time they raised prices from $5 burritos to $11 which is not worth going there anymore bcus over time they started putting more rice/beans/cream, and little bit of meat in the burritos.“

“Some of the best BBQ I've had since moving to California. Not cheap but worth the money. Ribs are especially good. Great potato salad. The best BBQ sauce I've ever had. Worth the price of the food just for that sauce. Get it medium - just the right heat on it. We spent $100 on 5 hungry adults last time I was there. Enough to fill us up. Everybody loved it.“
