50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Rosemead

“Excellent food and great service. Family owned and my favorite local eatery. Please try it.“

“Great food and new location!“

“My husband and I have been here quite a few times now. We try to introduce a different couple to this restaurant each time we dine here. It has become one of our favorite places! The previous manager Sam, as well as the current manager Jimmy, have always been so accommodating to us! Each dish we order is always so delicious! Take a look at my recent photos and see for yourself. You won’t be disappointed!“

“Muy buen servicio Comida deliciosa…“

“Service was fast, friendly and very helpfull....food was also great by the way. I came on a weekend and it was very busy and had to wait but still was well worth it.“

“If this is not the best banh mi in all of Sgv and Oc, I don’t know of any place that can beat them. All cash by the way so come prepared. Their dac biet is the perfect sandwich and their daikon and carrots are light and bouncy with fresh jalapeno with the right amount of pate and butter. They have it down to perfection, nothing less. Had an open house and served it for homebuyers and they were blown away! Highly recommend! Cafe sua da is gold too, loved the shaved ice in the coffee and not too sweet. The ladies in the back are super sweet and you can buy the baguettes and freeze them, then 350 f for 6 mins in toaster or airfryer. Get the egg rolls, and pa te so is good too. My clients loved their vegetarian banh mi too!

Vegetarian options: Just get he vegetarian banh mi! Only vegetarian thing to get or just plain baguettes! It will be worth it!“

“the decor of the style presented as the restaurant is welcoming and inviting which was why my family who frequents this restaurant often with her friends recommended this place to me too“

“The bakery and tamales are delicious!!!“

“The banh xeo is top notch here. Both the shrimp and fish ones are great! It's so crispy and comes with lots of fresh veggies. Its even crispy and perfect when I get take out! A little pricey but it's a good portion. There is a $1 credit card fee so bring cash. I love this place so much, if only they opened for dinner!“

“Closed to home 25 miles but better than go to Santa Ana 45 miles. Food taste 3.9 Cleanness 4 Atmosphere 3.9 Huge place, clean and perfect bathroom“

“The food is like I am in Thailand. So delicious. The restaurant is big, clean and comfortable! The service is fantastic. They are all wonderful, especially Jenny. Highest recommendation for Tantawan! Try it, you’ll love it!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“This place has a fun atmosphere. Attentive and friendly staff, simple menu. Not expensive. And if its busy dont worey the line moves fast. Very well done Chinese noodle soups with a Taiwanese flavor. and pot stickers in a bao bun? It's a must try. Don't forget the honey green tea too- it will keep you awake.“

“I've gotten sushi here a few times via Doordash. The quality of the sushi rolls is good overall, but the portion has gotten very small. The vegetable tempura is subpar considering the price they charge. (The pumpkin is sliced so thin and the taro is cut like the size of a pinky!)“

“I was seated as soon as I walked thru the door. As soon as I looked up from my menu, someone came to take my order. I went to the bathroom, sat down and my food arrived within 5 minutes of me parking my car. These guys are always so fast and the food is always delicious.“

“It's great. The food is good. But you have to wait outside until your number is called and outside the place is littered with cigarettes in the waiting area. Please clean it up and put a no smoking sign. No one wants second hand smoke.“

“We had a large party dining here and they were very accommodating for such a large crowd. The service was fine and the dishes were excellent. Unlike other Chinese food restaurants that taste as though the same sauce is used on all of the dishes, Here the sauces were varied and delicious. The portions were large and everyone enjoyed their meal. I never saw the final bill so I can't comment on bang for your buck.
Will go back again without reservation

Kid-friendliness: Three kids were in our group and they had their own colorful bowls and utensils.“

“Pho Kho (dry noodles) with chicken was good and flavorful. Garlic noodles with grilled shrimp was delicious but a bit pricey; more noodles would have been better for the price. Complimentary tapioca dessert was tasty.

Service was good and attentive.“

“I recommend New flavor of India restaurant . Very friendly Very clean Large portions And most important the food is very flavorful .“

“If you like good comfort Vietnamese food then this is your spot. I always bring my family here when I come to visit. The food is always delicious and low price. We fed a family of 10 for a reasonable price. It's a local family-owned restaurant with food that lives up to family cooking. While the decor may not be very fancy they are slowly upgrading. The owner Nancy is very nice. Try the red macaroni with tender beef, the braised catfish, banh xeo and more. So yummy.“

“What can I say about this place. I've been coming here since about 1997. It's a Rosemead original location. The owners are always there and happy to see a familiar face and serve their loyal customers. Steak and eggs are a go to for me.“

“The food,drinks, and service was great.“

“Service was fast, friendly and very helpfull....food was also great by the way. I came on a weekend and it was very busy and had to wait but still was well worth it.“

“Food is delicious and fragrant. Chili oil is authentic and actually has spice and taste, not that mild stuff other places have. The beef in the fried noodle dish is tender and delicious, the sauce is fragrant. Cats ear noodle did take a longer time to make, but it's all hand made. Can't complain.

My husband got the lamb organ soup and the broth is milky white. The soup is extremely clear tasting and not gamey. Hand pulled noodle texture is on point. Not too soft, chewy.

Speciality fried pork was great and had that authentic north west vinegar sauce and taste.

There was a super annoying customer last night and the staff handled the situation very well. My husband was annoyed for the staff. Props to the restaurant. 10/10.

If you're dining in for the first time:
-Staff does not speak English, do some research on Xian cuisine and checkout their menu beforehand so you understand what dishes to expect
-They accept cash
-Water is self service
-Staff is not intentionally being rude, there's a cultural difference between Chinese and western dining service
-They don't bring utensils out because they're already at your table
-If you have any type of food allergies or dietary restrictions it's up to YOU to figure it out and not the staff“

“Visited this restaurant many times in the past 10+ years. Price and serving portion are good. Tastes are great. Service wide, the guests have to be patient with the waitresses. The young waiter, works evening shift only, is friendly with humor.“

“The special #1 - must get comes with various meets“

“Staff is very courteous . clean inside . About the food it’s delicious . The lemon grass chicken is excellent . The bang-Xeon dish is also excellent . .“

“I stopped by at this restaurant and try Pho beef noodles. The taste was incredible! A huge bowl filled with beef and tendons. The addition of herbs on my plate gave an delicious combination and aroma. The was very very good and service was lighting fast! I will come again and recommend to my friends. Five stars.“

“Food is delicious and big portions lots of food I like it 👍“

“Good food , good place, good price 。“

“This is a small independent shop that only does take out. Nothing fancy.

I came on a Sunday and the parking was packed. There are other shops and a supermarket as well. People do park and go rather quickly, though.

If you spend more than $20, you won't be charged a $1 fee. They only accept mastercard and visa; otherwise, pay cash.

Dim sum items are typically under $5. They sell other items/dishes for more and also specialty drinks.
I ordered $58 worth of dim sum and tried some in the car. I was happy with my order.

If you like cheap and decent dim sum, this place is it. Customers seem to love this place. There was a long line when I was here, and they kept refilling the food trays quickly.“

“Came here on a Tuesday for lunch with my parents. It was a bit busy, but the wait was under 10 minutes, which wasn’t bad at all.

We ordered the usual dim sum staples and added one special item, the imperial cold chicken. That dish was the standout. Super flavorful, tender, and honestly the highlight of the meal. Everything else we ordered was solid and hit the spot. The food overall was really good.

Ambiance is exactly what you’d expect from a classic Chinese restaurant. Loud, busy, and energetic. You can still hold a conversation, but you’ll need to raise your voice a bit.

Now the downside. Service was lacking. We had to refill our own teapot and grab our own to-go boxes. No real attentiveness, and compared to other dim sum spots nearby, the service here falls short.

Parking is convenient. They have a small free lot plus free street parking, which is always a plus.

Would I come back? If someone else suggested it, sure. The food is excellent, but the service definitely needs improvement.“

“The service here was pretty nice, and I love how new the restaurant looks. The food was also pretty good too. My family loved it. However, the porridge we ordered was a little watery, but everything else was so tasty and we'll never forget our last dinner meal around the L.A county area!“

“I was walking around my air bnb neighbourhood and found this cute little restaurant. the waitress was such a sweetheart, very kind and efficient. She made the best Vietnamese ice coffee to! Will be back one day when I’m back in cali!“

“The poached chicken was cooked just right — tender, juicy, and pleasantly bouncy without being tough. The ginger-scallion sauce was fragrant and well-balanced, and I highly recommend pairing the chicken with their pho noodles and broth. The broth has a clean, savory depth with just the right level of saltiness, and the rice noodles are incredibly smooth and silky, which really elevates the whole dish.

Even though the shop is quite busy, the staff are friendly and attentive, and service remains efficient — our food came out in about 15 minutes, which felt very reasonable.

If you take the chicken home on its own, the seasoning may feel a bit light, since it’s really meant to be enjoyed together with the soup and noodles. As a full combo, though, everything comes together beautifully and feels comforting and satisfying.“

“the best food I've had in LA is also the cheapest. thank goodness for this lovely couple. They have made-to-order plates and choose-your-items buffet. Probably the most amount of food you'd ever get for the price (buffet). I feel like I'm getting closer to Taiwan! :)

pork (belly?) and curry chicken were amazing!

if this kind of place doesn't exist in San Jose / south SF Bay / Santa Cruz, then I'm not going!“

“Eating their roast duck was a wonderful surprise! The skin was crispy, the meat tender and flavorful, and every bite was pure bliss—not greasy at all. The side dishes and sauces were also authentic and complemented each other perfectly. The home-style dishes were also prepared with care, the flavors were authentic, and they were incredibly delicious with rice. You can't go wrong with any of the dishes you order. The restaurant was clean and tidy, making for a comfortable dining experience. The service was excellent, and the food came out quickly. Overall, a great experience. I'll definitely come again and recommend it to my friends!“

“Portion was good. Parking good and restaurant very spacious!“

“Reading these 1 star reviews really makes me upset. I have been a regular JTYH patron since 2013 and just got takeout from here today (Feb-26). They are a rare restaurant that hasn’t heavily increased prices AND maintained generous portions, even after COVID.

My top recs are the pan fried pork buns, the best I have ever had. The dough is perfectly cooked and the meat inside is delicious and huge, generous portion. I also love their beef rolls, (also my favorite I’ve ever found), because they have a good helping of veggies and sauce (and beef of course) so it’s not dry like so many other places. Then I also get their sliced pork ears as an appetizer.

I do like their fried noodle dishes and noodle soups (though I wouldn’t claim these are the best in SGV). They are still worth a try and a solid option to round out your meal.

For the past four years, the restaurant has been pretty quiet whenever I get takeout, usually dinner time. Parking is very easy (bc it is in a lot with other tenants that are closed by then). I have zero issues w their (not particularly warm) service. They make good food and pack it well and have it all ready to go when I need it!“

“My parents and I came here for a visit as we always see such a crowd on the weekends. The food and staff were exceptional! Plenty of seating and parking. The servings are very generous! There's a reason this place has been a 30-year mainstay!“

“This place is such a hole in the wall, would honestly come back. This place been around for a while but I never know this place exist because it’s so hidden.The service is a bit slow when prepping the food, but their tacos are to die for. I would come back any day for tacos!Parking lot is shared with other shops but not too busy! The menu is consistent and so is their food!Would come back again! Don’t let the small shop and sketchy look deceive you!“

“Authentic food and cheap. 👍“

“Beef Chow Fun ($11) + $4 extra beef. Thats enough food for 2 hearty meals. Add a little chili oil and 🔥🔥🔥

Even without the extra beef, it's still two meals. Just have to ration the beef.

Best cheap eats when they have it. Hours and availability are weird. Mainly a breakfast lunch place. I've been before and they ran out of noodles.“

“Excelente comida bien atendidos todo excelente selos Recomiendo“

“You can’t go wrong with a bowl of ramen from Shin-Sen-Gumi. I’ve been coming here for years and it still hits. I always get the Hakata Red w/ corn (no bean sprouts). The chashu slices are hidden, but they’re in there. Great customer service as well!“

“Saw Big E's on Instagram and decided to make the trip. I grab two of the daily double cheeseburgers for $3.99 and a side of fries. Man man man... Those burgers were so freakin juicy...I pulled one out of the bag and it leaked on my phone and I wasn't even mad!😂 I knew this was about to be good and boy was it. I spent about $13 and it was all worth the trip, the food, and the price. Considering what you would spend at In and Out for something like that... Big E you can have my money every week! Update: they have a new special 3 burgers, 3 fries, and 3 drinks for $16.99! This place never lets me down..🙏🏾“

“This French restaurant, tucked away in the Chinese community of Rosemead, is seriously delicious! My family, friends, and I have been here four or five times already. It’s been open for nearly 30 years—older than I am. The owner and head chef are Vietnamese, and since Vietnam was once a French colony, their French cuisine is quite authentic. The lighting inside the restaurant is soft and dim, creating a warm, cozy atmosphere that feels like eating at home. Every dish here is freshly baked or cooked to order, with no pre-made food at all.“

“they've one best food so far“

“Portions and servings were great for the price. We ordered two different rice plates and a noodle soup.

I don't eat pork, so the owner (or manager) offered me a beef soup instead. She said to keep hydrated. So thoughtful!

Inside is a typical Vietnamese place with old school decor. But everyone is very nice.“

“Enjoyed the meal at a dinner party tonight. Especially enjoyed the shrimp salad. So refreshing! Loved the sweet chili dressing. All the courses were good and well flavored while not too salty. Had not been here for a while. Great space for a dinner, karoake and dancing! For a dinner party of 14 tables, service was really good! They even provided extra chopsticks for serving and were good about refilling the ice bucket.“

“Does anyone know if they accept credit/debit transactions“
