26 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in San Gabriel

“Hands down one of the best dim sum restaurants I’ve ever been to. Just took out an order for our road trip and we were blown away. Everything is incredibly fresh and beautifully made. Flavors are so vibrant and delicious. I can’t recommend this place enough!!

The steamed shrimp dumplings, shrimp shumai, and egg tarts were our favorites!“

“The first few bites are OUT OF THIS WORLD! But then the oil and fat from the dry noodles hits and that's when it gets difficult. Definitely recommend the dry noodles, but not for those with high blood pressure. I haven't tried their soup noodles, but they should be good.“

“Although the restaurant is often crowded, the wait staff are usually responsive and able to attend to customers' needs.“

“Solid, Taiwanese and Chinese vegetarian and vegan classics. And a wonderful and clean atmosphere too! Love the lunch specials, the service, and the variety. The only downside is that the menu is huge! Too hard to make a decision, but the staff helped share some of their own favorites. They recommended the Taiwanese classics: popcorn basil chicken, lettuce wraps, soup noodles. And I really loved the chicken with orange peel.“

“Went on a Tuesday afternoon for a table of two. Service was great and attentive. Dishes came out fresh & hot, even the desserts.

Items ordered:
1. Snow cap bbq pork bun - this was the best thing we ate.
2. Cucumbers - cold, refreshing and a good flavor of black vinegar and garlic. We ordered two of these.
3. Chicken feet - meaty and good flavor, on the sweeter versus savory side though
4. Black bean spare ribs - not seasoned enough and pretty bland, would skip this
5. Shrimp rolls - honestly the worst one I ever tried. Absolutely no flavor in the filling. Recommend skipping to have room for other dishes.
6. Wagyu beef rolls - just a tad better than the shrimp rolls but would also skip
7. Taro cakes - took a while to come out but was super fresh and hot. Not bad but definitely a large order for just two.
8. Ha Gow - average, wished the mustard sauce was better, a bit watery and tasted different than what I am use to
9. Siu mai- average to good
10. Lava buns- came out warm but could be hotter, not too sweet and salty.
11. Egg tarts - average to good
12. Chicken wings with salt seasoning - tasty and came out super hot.

Overall, would come back maybe ideally with 3 people. Would skip most of the dim sum items and try the more lunch items. Dessert items here are executed pretty well. For $20 definitely easy to get moneys worth!“

“The Caribbean Gourmet spot inside Boston’s Market Hall offered some truly delicious entrée options. I visited with a friend who recommended the oxtails, curries, and jerk chicken—all of which were incredibly well-seasoned and perfectly balanced in flavor. I’d highly recommend it to anyone, especially since it’s located in an open, food hall-style space that features a variety of other cuisines, similar to a food court but much more upscale.

The setting included a small stage and communal seating, creating a festive and inviting atmosphere, especially with the Christmas decorations for the season. Everything was reasonably priced, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The overall vibe was casual and relaxed yet vibrant, making it a great spot to hang out and savor some amazing food.

Parking on the street was free and plentiful when we went on a Wednesday night after 7:30 pm.“

“This place is super clean super friendly staff and the crepes are beautifully made and fresh and delicious!!! They also have bugers and a breakfast burrito served all day long for you late bloomers like me! Im here literally every weekend for my sons sweet tooth. Come check them out you wont regret it!“

“Great AYCE hot pot spot. The broths have good flavor, ingredients are fresh, and the sauce bar gives you plenty of ways to mix things up. Service was friendly and everything came out quickly. Great place to relax and enjoy a meal with friends.“

“Had dinner here with a large group. We were VERY well attended to. Our server, Frank, took exceptionally great care of us. The presentation of the food was amazing, from the seafood, to the various meats, to the Peking Duck. Great experience, definitely recommend.“

“The best Vietnamese Style Lobster and seafood! Always a long queue to be seated. Get here early for best parking and best seating.“

“Located in the Blossom Food Hall, this was the former Workaholic that made Korean fusion dumplings.

I'd recommend their Manduyu Special since their Rice 2 Meet You is pretty good, but consists of mostly meat and a lot of rice (great portions!) Their Mandu is definitely the best that they would have.

Food is prepared quickly“

“Best Taiwanese food you have ever eaten! So far, everything is delicious 🤤. I ordered their fried pork chop, and it's so juicy. I enjoy their mustard greens but they are good with pork belly rice. The rice was delicious because the fatty and lean meat was evenly portioned in every bite. I ordered the pork intestine with oyster vermicelli, but I prefer only the oyster because the intestines, to my preference, are a bit plain. The oysters are fresh, and it would be nice if the menu had fried oysters as appetizers 👍. The popcorn chicken wasn't my favorite because it had less basil and was sweet, which was different from the ones I had. But overall, it's good, and I will be coming back.“

“Cute homey Japanese vibes. It’s a small restaurant so I can see there’d be a wait on busy days. Luckily we only had to wait about 5 min. The menu is straightforward. Comfort Japanese dishes. Service was great, they’re super nice and very attentive!

The tempura was good, sauce was great too. Katsu was fried perfectly, sauce was tangy and fantastic, just wish the pork was more moist/tender. Karaage was just okay, probably wouldn’t order it again, most of the flavor came from the sauce. My dad loved his eel bowl set, flavored and cooked well. My katsudon bowl was delicious, again katsu was a little dry, togarashi is a must with this bowl. And the cold soba noodles were great, the sauce dip was perfectly seasoned and noodles were perfect texture, very refreshing to eat.

Parking - small free lot! We had no issues getting parking.“

“This place was so nice! The parking out front was full so I parked under the garage. I went by myself and the staff was so nice to attend to my needs. I loved the food and found this to be such a nice go to place. Will definitely come back again~“

“15. Com Tam King Special is good but not so good as expectation when it looks like the best one which this restaurant recommended.

79. House special with beef combo is really nice. Highly recommend. We would come again because of this beef noodle. The soup and beef is delicious.

The service is good. People here are very friendly and serve efficiently.“

“I googled "best Chinese in LA" and then this popped up as the #1 place. So we drove - and had a very good meal. However, if you expect the classic Chinese dishes, you will be disappointed. This is Shezuan, "a different animal". So no rice, no sweet-and-sour-this-and-that. So be prepared for very spicy Szechuan food. Noodles. No rice. Try the dumplings, they were delicious. We ordered mild (1 out of 5 spice degrees) and we were burning inside (we had two separate orders of dumplings - but spice grade 1. There is no consistency, so be careful). So if spicy is what you are "in" for, you'll love it. The ambiance is sort of authentic ;-) - the sign on how to use the toilet (outside the restaurant in the alley) says more than words. But then, it was $100 all-in for the four of us only. My advice: I could barely understand the service language. Better check the menu before you go. As we were first-timers, I wanted to share three starters and three mains among the four of us and leave it up to the waitress to make us explore - she did not understand. I asked if they served beer. The answer was "noodles or dumplings". :-)“

“This was our first time visiting this chain’s location in San Gabriel. It is more spacious and the food quality is good. There were only two minor issues: There was no one checking the waitlist at the main entrance when we got there. The bathrooms only allow one person at a time. Other than those overall it is a very well managed restaurant.“

“😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁“

“I ordered sandwiches from them so many times, and it is a small take out order place only. Love 💖 the way they fixed their ingredients, tasted exactly like hometown and prices are reasonable,services are polite . Highly recommend. Parking in & out at no time.“

“Came here recently and really enjoyed the hearty, flavorful soup—it had the perfect amount of spice and richness, with fresh ingredients like tofu, green onions, and tender shredded meat. It felt like true comfort food and was definitely the highlight of the meal for me.

I also tried the bossam (steamed pork with tofu and veggies). While it was presented beautifully and came with generous portions, the pork itself was on the dry side for my taste, so it didn’t quite hit the same level as the soup.

Service was friendly and attentive, and the overall atmosphere was warm and inviting. I’d definitely come back for the soup again!“

“Great place to have breakfast - the amount of food for the price seems unbeatable! We went on a Tuesday, and there was plenty of seating. My group of four got Breakfast Specials A (with Beef Congee, Dark Soy Sauce Chow Mein, and Steamed Rice Noodle w/ House Special Sauce) and Breakfast Specials D with Beef Brisket Rice Noodle Roll. We had leftovers to take home.

My group really enjoyed the Steamed Rice Noodle w/ House Special Sauce. They wished the rice noodle roll would be able to absorb the beef sauce better. I enjoyed the beef congee - it's nothing special but it hits my comfort food zone.
I like how we add our own condense milk for HK Milk Tea to adjust to desired sweetness level.“

“You think about getting ramen, but you want something healthier? Try rice noodles. LuDingJi will open your world to rice noodle soup. Parking is usually plenty, just go to their underground lot. The restaurant is relatively clean. Food is served pretty instantly, so that's great news for hangry (hungry and angry ?) customers. Servers are polite and friendly too. The only complaint I have is the lighting in this restaurant is kind of dark.To order, it's 3-step to get your bowl of rice noodle goodness:1. Choose your soup base2. Choose your entree3. Choose your carbs, but really just get rice noodles! ?4. -- Side note: please get some add-ons as the dish doesn't come with many things. --Food we ordered:- Tomato soup (8/10): For those who can't eat spice, this is Really REALLY GOOD! It's not too salty, the rice noodle textures were mildly chewy and tasty. I added fatty beef and some vegetables. Overall, the portion given is plenty.- Chili Pumpkin (10/10): A little spice, but this is probably my favorite hands down! The spice has a mild sweet-sour flavor to it. I really enjoyed this.- Shou Zhua Bing (6.5/10): This is basically roti canai with meat. I actually liked the dish. I gave it a low rating because I felt like the meat was cold but I thoroughly enjoyed the roti canai!Overall, I would recommend this restaurant to anyone that wants to try a ramen alternative. ✨?

Parking: Parking is usually plenty, just go to their underground lot.“

“One of the most juciest dumplings in town! Their crab juicy huge dumpling is a must order it’s filled with crab meat and juice it’s burst as soon as u put the straw in! Loved their small dumplings also! Their spicy dumpling with shrimp filling is also a must order! The spicyness is not very spicy so the dumpling taste you can definitely taste!“

“My friend and I had a delicious lunch at Hui Tou Xiang! The leek pancakes and dumplings are all handmade in-house as well as the noodles. We’ll be going back.“

“This wonton is probably the best in the Los Angeles area. It tastes really good, but the pork inside is too rough and there are chunks of fat that haven't been shredded. The shrimps are very green, and there are three or four shrimps.
The dry-fried beef he made has a first-class taste, and the pot is strong, but the beef is not very tender without the pulp. Highly recommended place to try.“

“Family and I have been coming here for ages. Yeah some things are pricy, but most have decent portions. Food a little bit on the greasy side though. I like their braised tofu most. Their porridge is good with big chunks of yam! Parking can be a bit difficult to find at times.“
