50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Riverside

“My wife and I stopped at the Oasis Cafe and absolutely loved it. The food was delicious and very fresh and filling. You have gained a steady customer.“

“amazing food, amazing service, amazing experience!! found this place looking for vegan options & decided to go based on the google reviews. even with the pre-notion that they had 4.9 stars, my expectations were far surpassed! i didn’t catch the name of the guy who took our order but he was lovely & had great energy. for being a completely vegan spot, my socks were knocked right off. best chicken burger i’ve ever had. even my dad who eats real meat was throughly impressed. would definitely go again. 10/10“

“Yummy food not crowded at all and our waiter Francis was on top of it“

“If you’re looking for top-tier vegan food in the IE, Veganvato in Riverside, is it. This all-vegan food truck is hands down one of the best in the area for vegan tacos and burritos.

I had the soyrizo taco and the BBQ jackfruit taco, and both were incredibly flavorful and satisfying. I also loved that they use two tortillas, so the tacos don’t fall apart; such a small detail that makes a big difference.

My partner ordered the al pastor burrito, and he absolutely loved it. But the real star of the show was the chile de árbol salsa, easily the best we’ve had.

Highly recommend Veganvato if you’re in the Riverside/IE area and craving amazing vegan food!“

“Best chilaquiles in town by far . Hard to find well done authentic chilaquiles here but this place nails it . The other products are great also stuff like pambazo and cafe de olla stuff u just don't get out here often. Ignore the bad reviews those people don't have taste buds“

“The atmosphere was great! The music was so good, a great mix. The fajitas were amazing, best I’ve had in a while. The Pulpo was great too and the margaritas were delicious. Our server Eddie was very attentive and helpful. He made it a great experience. We are definitely coming back for date night again!“

“My food was excellent perfect portions perfect temperature only one small packet of salt 😏 very fresh and tasty I would I'll come back the prices was reasonable I think it should be maybe a little cheaper but not by much two people can split that just maybe a little bigger salad it's totally worth buying the kebab plate and just having a salad kit at home from the grocery store. Very nice people very clean there's a liquor store in the next door over you can get a buzz ball and some ice 🔥👌🏽🤞🏽🚀“

“This place is AMAZING Everytime I go I am never disappointed the food is fresh hot beyond flavored people she the price is high but for the quality of food it’s well worth it I LOVE THIS PLACE it smells amazing when you go in“

“2nd time here! Food was fantastic...again! Our server Tyler was fabulous!!! Happy Birthday to me!!“

“The entire experience is amazing the homemade food 🥘 the politeness of the staff from the owner down …. Or as he would say from the OWNER up . ⬆️ amazing place“

“JENNIFER our waitress was amazing! She came to our needs before we even asked. Great service!!! Food was awesome as usual!!! Thanks for a wonderful experience again!!!“

“Home made chili...SOOO good.“

“First time here. Came for my birthday with 14 people and our wait was a little less then 45 min on a Saturday at 6pm.
We were seated in a perfect location we had different servers and they accommodated 5 separate bills. That makes it so much easier.

The food was delicious!! Huge portions. The youngsters finished their food but us older folks would have been able to share. Worth it though. Drinks were great. Had the Big Stick with literally a big stick ice cream in it. The guys drinking beer just wishes the mugs were a bit slimmer because so heavy to lift and sheer plus just a bit uncomfortable to drink out of but hey it's good beer they can't complain.

I had the Cajun Shrimp parmesan pasta. Delicious!!“

“Some of the Best tasting Coffee in Town.“

“Always fresh, fast and good quality. Personable staff!“

“At Sushi Times in Riverside, the food is defined by its high-quality, fresh fish and a diverse menu that extends well beyond standard rolls. Located near UC Riverside, it has built a reputation for providing authentic Japanese flavors in a cozy, modern setting.“

“Everything is delicious!!“

“The food was excellent. We had a California omelet and another platter. The server Cesar was very courteous and attentive. As far as the restaurant it was very clean and it was nicely decorated. Overall excellent work! We have found a new breakfast place.“

“The food was authentic and amazing, I couldn't have been more happy with my 20 dollar plate. The portion was HUGE, I couldn't even finish my 3rd street taco. Also, I never go for beans and rice, but oh my goodness were they delicious. Both the regular and spicy salsa are sublime, and I would definitely recommend them any day to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food. Vibe was great, too, lovely waitress, food, and the Newcastle vs Barcelona game on the many screens was the icing on the cake 👌.“

“Try the Friday evening pasta bar, it's the bomb! Their biscuits are the best too.“

“We placed an order for a large group. Staff guided us through our selections and recommended family dinners over catering items, which was a great cost-savings! Our order was ready on time, and staff helped put it in our car for transport to the party. Food was prepped to order, salad was fresh, rice and kebabs were perfect, bread was fresh and cut into manageable pieces, and dressings were amazing. They truly exceeded our expectations, and we'll definitely return in the future!“

“I get tired of most Mexican restaurants because there is a sameness to them all, but Morena's is better, more upscale than the others. I love this place.“

“Great service, amazing food. I felt very welcome as a table of one, and was seated quickly. It was my first time, and the server was very accommodating and kind. They have such a wide variety of food here! 💜“

“like how they give you samples of different flavors. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️“

“I've been coming here for 10 years now. I have moved away all over California tasting Thai places in over 30 other places and this one right here has the best Pad Thai and Pineapple Fried Rice that I have ever tried, fitting of the restaurant name! Their curries are also excellent and at this point I am sure everything in the menu also bangs.“

“Staff friendly. son enjoyed his carne asada tacos (Wed) and burrito (Fri). my shrimp taco was delicious. We will be back.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5

Had the Achari Pizza at Pizza Twist and it was absolutely delicious — perfect flavor and great quality.
Big thanks to Faisal for his excellent service. He was polite, quick, and really made the experience better.
Highly recommend!“

“Best cookies ever!!! So many tasty flavors and the Riverside cookie is awesome!!! They are all so delicious, it’s hard to only buy a dozen!!!“

“For 34 years my wife and I would eat there 2 to 4 times a month, it was our favorite restaurant. Friendly staff good fresh made food, If you want a combo that is not listed, want hotter salsa, something you don't see on the menu ask your waitress, the owner and staff are great! I'll be there tonight“

“I ate at this place three times in the past two weeks and I may start by saying that the moment you walk through the front door, the staff is very professional, welcoming, they are very compassionate about their jobs and the customers, the food quality is very good And I just got addicted to their best on earth Menudo 🤗🤗🤗🥵🥵. Anyone who doesn’t come and try this place they are missing out on great food“

“I kept wondering if Mrs Craig Vanessa was really an expert trader like they say, that she is not a scammer like the others, then I contacted her and I was shocked and amazed that with just $1,500 I invested, Mrs. Craig Vanessa helped me managed my account and after 7 Days of trading, I made my first withdrawal of $16,700. I'm here to testify the good work of her after she made a good profit for me in my investment. She's reachable via WhatsApp with the number on her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa“

“5 out of 5 stars. The carnitas at Chilitos Mexican Grill are incredibly tasty and perfectly seasoned, and the fresh guacamole is always a highlight. The staff provide friendly and attentive service, making us feel welcomed right away. The decor features colorful Mexican accents that create a vibrant and authentic atmosphere, and the background music adds to the relaxed vibe. It’s definitely a top spot for Mexican food near me and a great Mexican restaurant near me.“

“DELICIOUS Food here! It's all about the taste & the food here has it!!“

“me gustó mucho mi smoothie de mango“

“Hands down one of the best sandwiches I've had in a while. The french rolls are baked to perfection with the perfect balance of crunchy outside, soft inside. Fresh ingredients piled high ! Everyone there was really nice and attentive. Will definitely be going back (:“

“just left. the flavors are amazing 😋🤩😋🤩😋🤩😋🤩😋. definitely will be back“

“SANDWICHES ARE AMAZING!!! AND THEY SERVE BEER AND KOOL AID. CAN'T BEAT THAT! A+ 5 STARS“

“kat was awesome at the bar, I never had so much good service before. ty I had calamari, pizza and ipa and bread was very good. 👍“

“To name of this venue does not do it justice. This is far beyond Ok. I love how they have a sign stating this establishment is not AYCE, which helps avoid that continual question.

The food is amazing, from the rolls to the main dishes, but really got me was the service. Our server was continually there throughout the meal, checking up on us and refiling our drinks.

Left us with a very positive experience, in an era where good customer service is getting harder to find. Will definitely be back!“

“This is your typical burger / pancakes / fried fish / literally everything joint, common in California. It’s like they all use the same copy/paste formula and have the same disorganized gigantic menu that offer everything from a fried fish sandwich to pancakes / eggs whether is breakfast time, or dinner time.

Food is not bad, nothing to scream about either. Hits the spot if you know what you’re getting, or if you are extremely hung over.“

“Such a charming coffee shop with some of the most amazing pastries I’ve had in a long time. Everything looked beautiful in the display case and tasted even better — fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care.
The prices were very reasonable, especially for the quality you’re getting, which made the experience even sweeter. Perfect spot to relax with a coffee, catch up with a friend, or treat yourself to a quiet moment. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their delicious pastries!“

“Downtown Riversides hidden gem!!! Stopped by this wonderful shop while shopping at the farmers market. I expected a nice cupcake but what I received was an outstandingly wonderful cupcake!! We ordered a lemon cupcake and a red velvet.
The Lemon was wonderfully light and moist and full of sunshine kissed lemon flavor. The red velvet was equally as light and moist with wonderful melt in your mouth chocolate flavor. The frosting was neither to dense nor to light, it's flavor perfectly complimented both cupcakes. Be sure to stop by Cupcakes and Curiosities on your next trip to downtown riverside.“

“Pretty good, best outside of the Little Saigon area. The decor makes me think this place used to be something else entirely, lots of old famous celebrities in the mural, weird Vietnamese food themed Christmas prints with a wall full of painted straw hats. I'm assuming they saved money by not redecorating and leaned into the non-sequitor.

Food is great. I like the pho chin. The brisket is a very flavorful if dry option.

Check it out!“

“Supreme Thai food! Try Spring roll, yum, Fresh!“

“Great service and Good food!!! Good combination for a great experience. I will be going back .“

“They know how to cook it up“

“Andy was awesome and took care of us!“

“Food has changed over time. I been dining at PF Changs for the last 20 years and recipes are not the same, not sure if the price tag is quite worth the meal. The noodles for the lo mein are different, I preferred the previous ones, they were more flavorful. Overall, service was good, food was ok.“

“Great food and prices. nice people.“

“This is my favorite Rubio's mostly because of the staff that work there. We are regulars and they are all so friendly and accommodating. The food is always fresh and they get the orders correct on the 1st try. I love that the menu changes periodically so you can try new things. They have good deals and reasonable prices. Easy parking, inside and outside seating and clean and tidy. Special shout-out to the manager Jorge and the assistant manager but they have all been amazing to us over the years. Keeps us coming back. I love this place!!!“
