50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in San Francisco

“Liholiho is a fantastic restaurant! The space is modern and beautifully designed, with an open kitchen where you can watch everything being prepared, which adds a lot of energy and transparency to the dining experience.

The service was very friendly, attentive, and quick. The cocktails were excellent, and even the non-alcoholic one I ordered was made with care and tasted great.

The food was outstanding. The bun with beef tongue was extraordinary, the tuna tartare and ceviche were perfectly balanced and fresh, and the shrimps with crispy rice were especially memorable. All dishes showed creativity, originality, and were prepared with high quality ingredients.

For three people, including first and main courses, drinks, and one dessert, the bill came to $260, which I found fair for this level of quality. The only minus point is that the restaurant does not offer coffee, which would have been a nice way to finish the meal.

Overall, I really enjoyed everything at Liholiho. Highly recommended, and I hope I will get to return again!“

“The food in this restaurant is delicious, I hope you have time to try it.“

“I went there for brunch and I totally recommend it. Be mindful you will have to queue outside, but if that doesn’t stop you, you will enjoy one of the best brunches I’ve had in town.
We ordered the cdmx and the special of the day. They were both really good and filling.
If they have agua fresca de mango, order it. It is delicious!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“What an amazing culinary experience! We had a three course meal. The waiter was very helpful, friendly and had great recommendations! I highly recommend this place if you're in San Francisco!“

“Amazing service and food!!!!“

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

“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“

“Breakfast is definitely the best thing here.“

“Best vegan meal I’ve ever had, went twice in a four days it was that good ❤️“

“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.“

“everything about the restaurant, from the heated outdoor dining, people who work there, the food so deliciously great especially the one that prepares and cook it, THE CHEFS, amazingly incredible they are and not so pricey above all.“

“Such a great spot! Went for our anniversary and it was an incredible experience. Our favorite dishes were probably the sweet corn and ham flan with caviar, and the rockfish taco especially with the habanero sauce. Beautiful presentation and service. So many unique flavors and combinations.“

“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.

“There’s something magical about this bar and I just kept going back to it in the 2 months I stayed in SF. Def my fav bar in the area. They have such creative menu of cocktails and update the menu every 6 months. Super busy on Friday and weekend nights but bartenders make sure you’re taken care of. Just need a little time for them to get to you. Fun vibe and just so good drinks. Outdoor seating is pretty nice.“

“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“

“Excellent service and great food!“

“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!“

“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.“

“I’m here for business from Canada. Was taken here for supper by a coworker. The quaintest little restaurant, the owner and his wife are just awesome. The food is gorgeous! And his limoncello is the best I’ve ever had. Will be going back before I head home. ❤️❤️❤️“
