34 Best Vegan Restaurants near San Juan Bautista

“Love the many delicious Lolla sandwiches; the breakfast bagel is my favorite, along with yummy tomato soup. All ingredients are fresh! Desserts are superb as well! 💗“

“Recently, I learned of Cultiva and Cali Caffeine, and that there would be a Sunday vegan brunch happening once a month in San Juan Bautista. My wife is vegan, and I love vegan food, so we decided to take a Sunday drive and check out the brunch offerings! Upon arriving, we quickly came to realize that space is super limited inside. There’s really just one spot right inside the door. There were two tables out in front, however it was raining and that wasn’t going to work for us. We did eye one other table inside, and they quickly cleared it off and were super willing to accommodate us, especially since we mentioned we had come down from San Jose in the rain, and had been looking forward to the experience. After looking at photos online, it’s possible there might be a patio in the back, but again, my guess is it would be weather permitting. Just a heads up to plan accordingly when coming here, as space is limited. Rafael operates the Cali Caffeine part of the business, and right away he made me a very tasty vanilla americano, and my wife had a specialty latte made with oatmilk. Super good and paired wonderfully with our food. Maria operates Cultiva, and is the chef and prepares the food. She was so warm and welcoming, and she made us some of the best vegan dishes we’ve had outside of our own home. We ordered three items and shared: Waffle - Banana Brulee, Cinnamon, Maple Syrup Chilaquiles - House Red Sauce, Corn Chips, Crema, Onion, Queso Fresco Milanesas with Famous Mom’s Macaroni Salad - rice & mushroom medley “steak” milanesas paired with creamy, flavorful macaroni salad In addition to the above, we also got to try a side of spicy garlic potatoes, with chipotle sauce, spring onions, and arugula. The food was incredible and the flavors were delectable! Everything was made with thought and care, and it truly came through in every bite. We are so glad we took the drive out and met these wonderful people, ate some delicious food, and had an amazing experience. Can’t wait to come back again. Thank you so much Maria and Rafael!“

“Great BBQ! I personally love their brisket and pulled pork. Can’t go wrong with either of those!“

“Just tried Inaka Fusion and this place is amazing! Incredible food and some of the best sushi I’ve had in a very long time. Every bite was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. The staff were awesome—friendly, attentive, and genuinely excited to make sure everyone has a great experience.

Inaka Fusion is the kind of spot you’re excited to tell people about and can’t wait to return to. If you love great sushi, top-tier service, and fusion cuisine do yourself a favor and go check out Inaka Fusion.

Highly Recommend!!! 👏 🍱✨“

“Most cheerful counter person ever, probably the owner!“

“Came in to support a local small business and I’m so glad I did. I got the Coconut Paradise and it was so good, light, refreshing, and full of flavor.

The new owner is working on fresh fruit options like mango and strawberry and it did not disappoint. The fresh mango on top took it to another level.

It honestly reminds me of Mexican raspados, super refreshing and made with care. You can tell there’s intention behind what they’re creating.

Just found my new favorite dessert spot.“

“Picked up food to go last year and it was really good. So happy that we found this place again! Ordered garlic parm and spicy fried chicken wing plates, lemongrass chicken and beef meatball pho. Also ordered strawberry and melon boba milk tea and Vietnamese coffee with egg cream. Food and drinks came out quickly. Customer service was great. It was so good that we ate and drank everything! We will definitely come here again when we’re in the area.“

“The service was great the food was delicious the portions were perfect, the menu had many didn’t entry’s to choose from the wine list was something new I’d definitely recommend this place and plan on going back soon“

“I was pleasantly surprised by the food. The menu offered a wide variety of items I hadn’t seen before, and the orange chicken was truly unique, and my wife loved the stuffed eggplant. While the presentation could have been better, the clean, open atmosphere more than made up for it. The restrooms were spotless, and the tables were so clean you could practically eat off them. Another standout detail was that both the water and ice were filtered—a small touch that speaks volumes about quality. Overall, I would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to going back.“

“Madeline was excellent. food was delightful“

“First time trying ,I tried a crepe wrap was delicious.Will definitely be going back to try other stuff on menu 👍🏼“

“After a long run in Pinnacles, we stopped for the fig/bacon/arugula pizza, the half chicken and a burger. The food was DELICIOUS, and when there was a mistake with our order, the waitress immediately noticed. The manager was kind and made it right without us needing to ask. This is a place to save in your plans for a trip to Hollister!“

“Joshua G was an amazing server. He is the glue of this Olive Garden. I don’t think this place could function without him. I have never been more served. He deserves to be Olive Garden Chief of Staff. He accommodated our large group very well and split our check 11 whole ways and we are so grateful!!!!!!! I will be coming back here just for him. My dining experience has been heightened because of him. Thank you Joshua G. Roxanne please give him a raise.“

“delicious food and quick service“

“If you have the pleasure of meeting Kevin and his family you’re in for a treat. Best Tri Tip in town. Good music Amazing wine. Highly recommend“

“I went to this location on a bus tour for a new staff orientation. We took over the whole building. This place has 3-5 huge tv screens that were playing the Olympic Games, basketball, and soccer. The staff were very busy running around and serving food with a huge smile. Every staff member including the owner, Junior (who was cooking all of our food), had a huge smile on their faces and kept asking if we needed anything else. The bus tour ran late and we had to leave in a hurry. Without complaint the staff cleaned up and asked if we needed anything else. The staff encouraged us to take to-go boxes and went above and beyond in friendly, respectful, welcoming customer service. I love to support places like this and always feel respected and valued as a customer.

Vegetarian options: Vegetable pizzas, gluten free options, and a salad bar.“

“Called in last minute to make reservation, was so nice to get the table ready for me within 40 minutes for 7 people.
Ordered pho, shaking beef, banh xeo, and others that I could not remember. Their pho was good, big portion and full of meat. Unfortunately the sirloin was overcooked and the other parts of the meat have too much fats in them, so it was down on the score.
Their shaking beef was also meh, very thin and overly sweet, probably not their strongest dish. Banh xeo was full of meat and fillings, but not particularly crispy. All in all, it was tasty but only lacking a bit here and there. Their service was pretty good though. Their restaurants are also huge, which is a plus.“

“pizza was really good. definitely going back“

“I had the fried tempura plate, which came with a nice combination of shrimp tempura and fried vegetables. The tempura was golden, crispy, and flaky with every bite, and the vegetables were well-balanced and not overly fried.
The soup that accompanied the meal was delightful, light and not over-seasoned. The rice was fresh and well prepared. Overall, I really enjoyed the food, the welcoming atmosphere, and the excellent, friendly staff.
For anyone who enjoys sushi or Japanese cuisine, this is definitely a place worth visiting. I enjoyed what I had , If your a sushi fan Drop by just off of 101 in Prune Plaza“

“Walked into Ike’s thinking it was just gonna be a standard sandwich shop. I was helped by a worker named Chris! Super helpful guy! Also handsome too which is always a plus. Weird thing was as I saw him helping another customer in front of me that was being rude and downright mean. Chris kept looking up and saying “I’m new bro, I’m new to this and screaming as loud as he could ‘auuuugh’, he also kept telling the customer ‘you don’t deserve my mayo, you ain’t worthy of my mayo’” which I thought was the appropriate way of handling that situation at that time. As I walked up next in line Chris listened attentively as I explained what sandwich I wanted. As he was making my sandwich Chris and I struck up a conversation about my favorite hobby (and his too) Thugshaking! Chris I can tell is very intelligent and our conversation was just as intellectual as I thought it would be. If you need a good sandwich and good friendly conversations! Go to Ike’s! You won’t be disappointed“
