34 Best Vegan Restaurants in San Juan Capistrano

“Just ate here today for the first time and the pizza was amazing!! I ordered the bbq chicken and my friend got pepperoni. The crust was insanely delicious and crispy! Cheese to toppings ratio was on point! The mozzarella cheese sticks were also very good! And to top it all off, the customer service was 💯!! Highly recommend!!“

“The award-winning breakfast sandwich had a nice taste but was too greasy for me. The iced mocha had a nice flavor and the Vietnamese iced coffee was very smooth. Tim was very friendly and doing everything, cashier, barista, and cook. Items took 15 mins for drinks and another 5 for the food.“

“The food is all amazing - family favorites are the Bacon Quiche (it goes fast), the pasta salad and the lavender lattes!😍“

“Ok, so first up it was a bit pricey. But holy cow the burgers were all amazing, the place was clean, staff was wonderful. If you want ridiculously tasty burgers and don't mind paying for it... I'll give this place 5/5 stars for sure.“

“Second visit to Limoncello and want to say the food is excellent in every way. Last night I had Arugula salad (very lemony dressing), the Risotto (outstanding) and chocolate gelato which was VERY chocolate. Topped with a nice wine. All Excellent. As for atmosphere, lots of large parties there last night celebrating Christmas and birthdays so was quite noisy, but 'tis the season. Highly recommend Limoncello. Food and service are excellent and above average. Menu is extensive with very different and interesting options. If they would have served a shot of Limoncello after dinner I would have thought I was dining in Italy.“

“I chose this restaurant due to its proximity to downtown, situated just off the main street. The ambiance, both indoors and outdoors, was exceptionally warm and welcoming. The patio featured outdoor heaters for comfort during meals, complemented by live entertainment that enhanced the experience without being overwhelming. Inside, we were seated in high-backed chairs by the window, allowing us to observe the trains arriving and departing. The service was outstanding, with the staff promptly attending to our needs. The food was exquisite, with generous portions that were satisfying without leading to waste. They offered wine samples to help us select the perfect pairing for our meal. We decided to order the Mac-n-cheese to take with us for a late-night snack after the concert, which proved to be an excellent choice to share. The overall atmosphere was friendly and courteous. I would highly recommend this establishment and eagerly anticipate my next visit.

Parking: Multiple spaces to park, easy to find and pay for parking. Approximately $2 for each hour. Ticket was clear on how long you could park and even provided the time you had until.“

“Every cup is brewed with care, tradition, and a touch of serenity. Best place to make memories with loved ones,“

“It was my first time here, and the food is delicious. Love the simple & quaint decor. Definitely will be back!“

“We found this little Gem recently and fell in love! Amazing food and the friendliest staff! I have Celiac disease and their menu offers me so many delicious choices! 💙“

“Always my go when I'm in town. I grew up in the area and it's still the same amazing hole in the wall restaurant. Great service with friendly staff. Always fun to see the owner still working onsite. I dream of these crunchy chicken tacos and house green sauce. It's fabulous.“

“Yummy food. I went for lunch and was extremely impressed“

“Super fresh, smelled clean inside. Owner is quite friendly and really cares about making a nice bowl.

Got the large bowl with brown rice, and a selection of great sides and toppings. Not *too* many, but each one worth considering. Flavors and spice level were spot on, not too salty or sweet, which highlighted how good the fish choices are.“

“The food and service at this restaurant are excellent. However, the noise level is off the charts and we went on a Wednesday, not exactly a normally busy day in a restaurant. I wish they would open the back patio for service in these lovely, warm summer months. It would be SO MUCH more pleasant out there! We will eat here less often because of the outrageous noise level. All hard surfaces and nothing to absorb sound. It's really TOO LOUD!“

“If you're looking for an authentic Italian dining experience that feels like a slice of the Mediterranean, look no further than this charming Trattoria! From the moment we walked in, we were enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere, perfectly complemented by a refreshing bottle of Vermentino Campo al Mare to kick off our evening. Fa Bene indeed! For our starter, we indulged in a delightful salad featuring wild arugula, endives, red onions, walnuts, and Reggiano cheese drizzled with balsamic dressing. Each bite was bursting with flavor and texture; it paired beautifully with the complementary tapenade and crostini—an excellent way to awaken our taste buds. Our server Jorge truly made the evening memorable with his attentive service. He guided us through the menu while ensuring our glasses were never empty. With fresh focaccia straight out of the oven and homemade pasta on offer, we knew we were in for a treat. The star of the night was undoubtedly the daily special of Strozzapreti—hand-twisted pasta that lives up to its intriguing name. Tossed in a rich Pomodoro sauce with fennel and pork sausage, each mouthful felt like pure bliss. It's easy to see why this dish has such an engaging backstory—it's both comforting and indulgent. Overall, this Trattoria is not just about great food; it's an experience worth celebrating! Whether you're dining with friends or planning a romantic evening out, this place promises fine wine, delicious dishes, and unforgettable memories. Buon Appetito!“

“I walk in to fragrant Indian spices. My mouth immediately starts to water. The appetizer comes out Some kind of vegetable dumpling my son ordered. One bite dipped in an incredible mint curry sauce and I'm in Nirvanna. It only gets better from there... SO GOOD!“

“My wife found this little gem whereas we stopped in on a beautiful Saturday morning for brunch. Ramos Cafe did not disappoint. Brunch was delicious and the atmosphere quaint.“

“Great place and pretty authentic food and top margaritas.“

“the food was amazing! service all of it! it’s so hard to find a good alfredo sauce
but this place knows how to make it well!
fresh pasta was soooo good
everything here was absolutely amazing
don’t skip on dessert either!“

“A little gem of a place in San Juan Capistrano. We randomly came across it after my daughter's soccer match, and choice of food or plenty and every single one of them are delicious. Just a heads up if you are ordering the quesadilla for your kids they are a bit on the spicy side. Portion size phenomenal, taste is even better. I tried the pesto sandwich, the quesadilla and steak burrito.???“

“Easter Brunch 2023 was outstanding! So many options for a Starter, Entree and Dessert. Frankly, when our beautiful server came over to see what I wanted, I wanted ALL the starters as I have enjoyed them for years! The Filet Mignon eggs Benedict was perfect. The bottomless, large mimosas were so fun with choices of orange juice, pineapple or watermelon; I tried them all😊 We all passed around our desserts. The Crème Brûlée and Flowerless Chocolate Cake were standouts for sure“

“Docent is Decent. Got me a Mouthful of Church on Time, 8.2 DIPA. Lisa has a Peel Top.“

“I got here during close-up hours, so the atmosphere wasn't really much there. I did enjoy this place

Parking: There's not much to say. The parking was there. Only one other car besides me in a 30 parking available area“

“Our Server, Brian was outstanding! My friend is allergic to garlic and onions and he went out of his way to check with the Chef only to learn that onions had been fried earlier that day in the same fryer/ oil as my friends French Fries and would have been contaminated. He took our concerns to heart and made sure the food was prepared safely. Bravo Brian!“

“The works or vegie pizza would be even better if the green peppers & onions were minced and not sliced large. Veggies aren't cooked enough if at all. The pizza lacks that extra flavor. Everything else about Selmas is awesome, the service, location, friendly atmosphere.“

“Great team, great meal, just great 😊“

“Excellent service & quality! Mauricio promised me a birthday cake, for our friend, to be delivered to a nearby restaurant on Sat, 3/18 & they PROMPTLY delivered a beautiful cake and it was DELICIOUS. Thank you 3:16 & Mauricio 😊“

“Phenomenal experience every time! If you are not a member of the Rancho Capistrano wine club you are missing out!!!!“

“Great time .. and the most amazing food .. dubble bubble shot is a must here never in my life anything like this .. but the best ohh and the cabbage wrap Thai style is the best“

“Our first time visiting this restaurant and overall it was great. We sat on the "patio" section and we could hear each other talk which is a plus! The only reason for 4 stars is I'm not a fan of watching wrestling while eating. They have two TVs in that section and my 13 year old niece had to watch bloody matches while trying to enjoy her food. I would suggest turning the TVs off unless there is a specific event which would warrant watching them in that section. Overall though, our food was great and our service was great. We will return.“

“First time there, and we had a great service.“

“I didn’t smell a smoker and there isn’t a choice of sauces, but the three meat sampler we shared of brisket, smoked pulled chicken and pulled pork was quite tasty. And the fried dill pickle appetizer was one of the best we’ve had, with thinly sliced pickles and a nice coating.“

“Best pizza around. The wings are really good, as are the sandwiches. For those looking for something on the light side, they have a great salad bar. I've been going since I was really young. I now take my kids, and they love it. They have a small arcade room that my kids love. Beto and all the staff are great people. A must try....“

“They completely screwed up our reservation. total incompetence with bs excuses. For the price, I expected something much more upscale. Housekeeping use metal plate as a door stopper making banging noises early in the morning which is also unacceptable. the beds are too soft which gave me a backache the next day. trying to have a conversation with some friends at the bar in the afternoon was impossible as the muSICK was too loud and the live singer was even louder.. room service brought no utensils! some friends from Asia liked the historic building. but then old Spanish architecture is abundant in California. it just reminded me this was all part of Mexico. I would NOT recommend this dump to anyone. Marriott, you guys need a new manager at this place please. I have lost all respect for the autograph collection. nice concept but totally mismanaged“

“Great BBQ in San Juan Capistrano area. Meat is tender, flavorful and baby back ribs fell off the bone. we will be back each time we visit the area.“
