50 Best Vegan Restaurants in San Francisco

“We walked in on NYE without a reservation and they graciously found us a spot in the bar area. Service was on point and staff were festively dressed! I love a crafty cocktail but most are too sweet. I had the Smokey mezcal cocktail 🍹. Perfection. Appetizers were delish as well. Perfect way to start our NYE celebrations.“

“Highly recommend! Excellent food and great service. Be sure to try the salt & pepper soft-shelled crab, braised pork belly, sweet & sour pork, BBQ pork, shrimp & chives, and the sesame balls. Everything comes out fresh, hot, and absolutely delicious.“

“An incredibly creative chef. This was genuinely some of the best food I’ve ever tasted. Every dish was a symphony of flavors, beautifully balanced and unforgettable. The food and the mocktails were both exceptional. I recommend this place to absolutely everyone, vegan or not. It’s truly a standout experience.

The service and ambience were also great.“

“Quintessential experience of culture, top quality authentic food, and a staple. If there’s a place I’d want to help carry San Francisco culture this is one of them. So lucky for it and you’ll multiple returns to try different taco, burritos, and their great aqua Fresca. Got their mangoes and it hit the spot“

“The food was so delicious! I’m from the LA/ Orange County area and I will be making a trip back here when I return to San Francisco!“

“Randomly stopped by this place. Just to get Miso and couldn’t stop ourselves and ordered some sushi.. Food and atmosphere were amazing!! I believe somebody heard that is my birthday and brought for me ice cream!! It’s was cherry on top! Definitely coming back!!! 💗💗💗💗💗🥳🌸“

“It is miles away from the hustle & bustle of the city, so when we reached, we almost turned around and drove away as we wanted a nice place for our anniversary. However, it looked a nice cute place, so decided to take a chance. They seated us in the back room which was cozier. The server was outstanding - he explained all the food items (we are Vegetarians), and every food item we ordered was delicious. Perfect blend of flavors and taste. The corn bread is more like a corn cake but it was baked fresh and came steaming and was mouth watering. The cocktail was amazing and the Bordeaux style Cab from Sonoma was very nice. The manager stopped by many times to enquire how we were doing. Overall, we had a wonderful time. Because it was our anniversary, they even brought 2 glasses of complimentary Prosecco to make it special.“

“One of the best tasting pizza I’ve tasted I highly recommend this place.“

“great food and cocktails, bread to die for“

“Excellent fresh, speedy, abundant and delicious service!☺️“

“The usual wait time is 20-30mins always but if you go solo or as a group of 2 then wait time is ~10mins. I got the classic I think it was a solid choice but the lamb one because of the broth was so much better.

Great vibes the sweetest kindest Chef❤️ Affordable $2 an hour garage parking in the same building. International music during dinner and after 8p live DJ 👏🏽👏🏽“

“Absolutely delicious burgers and thick, creamy milkshakes. Can't wait to go here again!“

“It has been many years since we were at La Ciccia.  it has always been one of our favorite restaurants. My wife and I chose to go here on our anniversary. We were very happy that the restaurant was bustling, the service was excellent, and the food was delicious and unique.“

“Best gelato in San Francisco.“

“Excellent food! The prix fixed tasting menu was very generous and delicious. We were stuffed!“

“It had been at least a decade if not longer since I last visited Zuni Cafe and it felt just as it did all those years ago in the best way possible! Lovely ambience as always and great service. I raved about the chicken for months to my kids and although the bread salad was perfect, the chicken served was quite dry. Aside from that, we enjoyed a lovely afternoon at Zuni“

“Calamari was the best! Go and get it“

“My friend, Mike, who lives nearby with his wife, raved about it so much that my BF and I decided to come after a short trip to Marin. It was everything that he described and more. It was fantastic! Excellent food and atmosphere. Will definitely add to my list of favorites and will recommend to my Palo Alto friends!“

“Excellent service and great food!“

“Everything we ordered was good. In fact we couldn’t eat it all. Your pizza was so delish! Never had chow fun wrapped up in little rolls but it was pretty good. Your shaking beef salad was good too. Definitely a dining experience in Asian fusion!“

“A delicious torta, and a super nice person! I have that terrible cilantro gene, and the proprietor took time to think through the menu and let me know what never had cilantro and where it was easy to take out, and was all around kind and personable. I ate this torta in the sunshine by the lake- a perfect lunch.“

“The service is always amazing and the food is great. It is one of my favorite neighborhood spots and it's so nice to have family owned spots on divisadero.

You'll quickly become a regular and be happy you are. You'll enjoy anything on the menu!“

“Four stars because they clucked up one of the things we ordered. The Cali Cluckwich came with no tempeh bacon or avocado added on, and we didn't have time to get it fixed because we were crunched for time on a work lunch break. Without the cali ingredients added, it was a plain old classic cluckwich. Other than that, taste-wise the food was good. Also, I've always loved the customer service at the San Francisco location, the employees are always so happy and friendly. Hunny Hickory TenderClucks were delicious. I chose all fries, no slaw, and it might have been the largest side of fries I've ever got at a restaurant. Updated from previous review on 2023-08-07“

“These Ladies Go👍🏾 the food is very good.“

“We enjoyed a few items. Tacos, Burritos, Sandwich, cheesecake and smoothies. All the food was served quickly despite being steady. All the food items were excellent especially the portobello tacos(Tuesday). The smoothie was delicious and cold and the cheesecake was vanilla and delicious. The staff were friendly, courteous, helpful and patient. Get your butts down here folks and Tip bigly. ✌️🌱🐾🎼💚🕺I“

“The pork chops are above world-class!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️ I'll be back.“

“I have a severe Allergy which makes going to many restaurants impossible. I just so happen to be in the area and this place popped up under vegan options. It was amazing! So many options and all safe for me to eat. Food came out fast, hot and in huge portions to share. None of us are strictly vegan, but due to my allergy my cousins agreed to try it. We left very happy, very full and with plenty of leftovers. Staff was great, but the restaurant was cold and could really benefit from some light music for general ambiance. Otherwise, it was phenomenal and I'll definitely be going back“

“Really good pizzas! Loved the crusts and the sauce.“

“Great food now I need Turkish tea 😊“

“The chocolate mint cookie was very good. Slightly stressful purchasing process: long but quick line, we couldn't see their vegan options until we were at the pay counter with the cashier waiting for us, and and had to select and bag our choices from the cases on the spot if we didn't want to hold up the line. It was a Saturday afternoon. Maybe there are days when you actually have a chance to look for the 'vegan' label and evaluate your options.“

“Excellent food and excellent, friendly staff. Thank you.“

“Best pizza spot in the Richmond. Their pizzas are all fantastic (on the crispier/thin side) and their daily specials are always awesome (although a bit expensive for what you get). The melon feta salad was incredible with a mix of feta, melon and a red onion vinaigrette.“

“fantastic little restaurant - excellent wine list and great beef bourgogne“

“The food and coffee were great! Atmosphere indoors can be a bit loud during peak hours. Service was quick and the staff were friendly.
The bar stools inside vary in height and some were too low with respect to the table board across the wall. Otherwise a great place to have breakfast/brunch!“

“Fantastic food - reasonably priced and great service! Tasha was amazing!“

“the Thai soup with the prawns in it I like mine spicy“
