50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Santa Clara

“Thoughtful gluten free options which are so hard to find. Clean, well run. Insane dessert crepe w Nutella and a ton of fresh fruit. Never would have known it wasn’t gluten-full. Berry smoothie w oat milk too, ‘cause we’re gluttonous. Highly recommend!“

“Excellent food and service. Value for your money.“

“The BEST!!! I went for happy hour, and it was so worth it!!! On weekdays Mikiya has happy hour during lunch, and after 9pm. I can get 4 plates of high quality beef and unlimited vegetables!! The appetizer section has my fav clams and octopus. They also have good fruits and curry wagyu, and fresh squeezed orange juice. Highly highly recommend, everything is good quality good value“

“So good! Our first time and definitely not our last!“

“Ordered takeout, and pickup went smoothly. My bf and I ordered the golden chili rice noodle and the rattan pepper rice noodle - both were flavorful and delicious but we enjoyed the rattan pepper one a little more. They give a TON of noodles but are a bit light on the toppings. Overall, still a delicious and comforting meal.“

“My wife and I came here for a light meal and were not disappointed. They serve pizza by slice with any toppings you request, which is a great plus (as we were not especially hungry). We just ordered two veggie slices and a soda. The atmosphere was quiet and relaxed. The pizza was delicious and had a well done crust and arrived within five minutes. The service was extremely friendly and the gentleman who took our order was kind and friendly. It is also great that this place is halal when going with friends who are Muslim.“

“Absolutely love this Sichuan restaurant! Every dish we ordered was packed with flavor and perfectly cooked. The Guoba Sanxian (Crispy Rice with Seafood) was amazing — you can even choose the non-spicy version, which is great for people who don’t eat too much spice.

The Stir-Fried Pork Kidney was super fresh and flavorful — tender, a little spicy, and full of that signature Sichuan aroma. And the Spicy Bullfrog Pot was a must-try! So juicy, rich, and addictive that we couldn’t stop eating.

If you love authentic Sichuan food, this place is definitely worth a visit. Great taste, generous portions, and friendly service — 10/10 recommended!“

“This Cafe is absolutely amazing! Kenny is just so happy to have anyone here! He takes pictures of every customer, he is kind and the food is delicious and filling. We just happened upon it, and we are so happy we did! Thank you Kenny! 😁😁😁😁❤️🤍💙“

“MONDAY FOOD REVIEW...PUESTO...6/17/24! After leaving California's Great America, we stopped for lunch at Puesto, a Mexican/American restaurant, located at 2752 Augustine Dr., in Santa Clara. This restaurant features Mexican dishes with an American flare infusion! I had their their Shrimp a la Plancha, which is Mexican shrimp, garlic butter, red onions, jalapeños, guajillo chile, avocado, and Tamarindo-chile sauce, and it comes with herb lime rice, black beans, and blue corn tortillas. This was absolutely fabulous!!! It wasn't your typical Mexican dish...the different ingredients they used to create this dish all blended together VERY well!!! If you are looking for a little something different to satisfy your Mexican food craving, and want some added flair, then this is THE restaurant to go to!!! I HIGHLY recommend it!!!! My rating: 10++++“

“This was my first time at Gish, and it didn't disappoint us. It was quite hard to get a reservation, and there must've been a cancellation when it showed an open reservation on the same day. Gish serves dinner only from 6 - 10 pm, and our dinner course took a full 2 hours, which meant they can only have two turnovers. It is a small place with about 25-26 seats total, with 4 seats right in front of the kitchen. They only have a single 4-course meal on the menu that changes every month, and you have to make a reservation in blind about a month ahead since there is no clue what the next month's menu will be. For December, the first course was tofu with winter green salad, which was quite refreshing, and we both enjoyed it very much. The second course, makgeolli mussel bean stew, was an interesting attempt, but it was a bit too salty for our taste - I think mainly it was the reduction of the clam juice and makgeolli. Toasted Manresa sourdough was great. The main course was beef cheek jjim, which was very tender and didn't need to use the knife at all. radish, kimchi, pomegranate, and mushroom somehow all provided a nice balance and interesting, unique taste. Dessert was goguma medley, which was my wife's favorite dessert. Overall, it was quite a pleasure, a nice surprise dinner for both of us, and we will be back for certain. It would be nice to give a heads up on the next month's menu so that people don't end up making a reservation then cancelling later. 2 2-hour dinner is nice for a special event dinner, but it may be a bit too long for others. I'd recommend this place to others to try, but be aware that the reservations fill up quickly, but I think many people end up cancelling too, so it is a bit of hit and miss. Very nice professional staff, explains every food and ingredient, and nice ambiance. Song selection can be hard to please everybody, but my preference is a bit lower volume. We will be back certainly on next occasion.“

“I recommend them for their hospitality, great food and service. Quick to serve!“

“Nice friendly staff, clean restaurant we go there every Monday or Tuesday“

“I ordered chicken saag, dal makhni, and lacha paratha for dinner. The food was absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I also want to appreciate Amit, who provided excellent service throughout. His attentiveness and friendly approach made the dining experience even better.“

“Reasonably priced, delicious, friendly, very positive all the way around. Would like to go back ��“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re craving authentic, home-cooked Bosnian food, look no further than Euro Grill in Santa Clara! Every dish feels like it was made with love — rich flavors, generous portions, and the kind of comfort food that instantly takes you back home. On top of the amazing food, the staff is so warm and welcoming that you feel like part of the family the moment you walk in. Friendly smiles, great service, and genuine hospitality make this place a true gem. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to experience the best of Balkan cuisine right here in the Bay Area! 🇧🇦🍽️“

“Nice ambiance and friendly People“

“Very attentive staff and delicious food“

“Lived here all my life and finally visited this spot.
I won't lie their poke was pretty underwhelming and for the portions and all, it wasn't worth the pricing in my opinion.

However I'm giving them 5 stars due to their sushi rolls, great value and taste, would recommend them for the sushi unironically and not their poke.“

“Great Food and Experience. Top notch service with a classy style! Our waiter Kevin was Awesome along with the staff from the receptionist to the manger … Stellar Customer Service!“

“Great ramen and reasonable“

“Great food! We will definitely be back!“

“Authentic and delicious. Friendly staff.“

“Came on Wednesday for happy hour, and they were busy! They only had 2 servers working, but they were very efficient! We ordered the black garlic tonkatsu and intense mala broths. Both were really good! The mala broth wasn’t too spicy (even though we ordered extra spicy). The meats were great, and I especially enjoyed the Wagyu and beef toro cuts. They had a large selection of sides and veggies as well. I’d definitely come again, and happy hour pricing is so worth it!“

“Very popular chain serving Authentic Marathi / Konkani cuisine.We went for Vada PAO’s a plenty, Misil pao, Sabudana khichdi . A few solkadhis and a Konkan sarbat to drown things and close it with a puranpoli which was just perfect. We had chana masala with puris but it was nothing much to speak about. Sufficient outdoor seating option available as indoors is limited“

“We celebrated my mom’s 60th birthday here, and it was truly unforgettable. The moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and taken care of. The ambiance was beautiful, the food was amazing, and the whole experience made the celebration feel extra special.

I want to give a huge thank you to Kelly, who was incredibly attentive, kind, and so detailed with everything. She made sure every part of the evening went smoothly and made us feel supported from start to finish. And a big shoutout to our server Ash, who went above and beyond the entire night. They treated my mom like a queen, and it meant so much to all of us.

It’s rare to find service that feels this personal and heartfelt. We left with smiles, full stomachs, and memories my mom will treasure forever.

I highly recommend this place for birthdays, gatherings, or any moment you want to make truly special.“

“I had a great experience at this restaurant. The tiffins are really delicious and freshly made every time. Each item has its own unique taste, and the quality is consistently good. The jalebi is a big hit its
crispy, sweet, and served perfectly. It’s definitely something everyone should try!“

recommended for anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere.“

“my friends and I had the most amazing time here! the facilities are super clean, and the option to have youtube play as karaoke is a game changer since we can sing all our english and korean songs that aren’t usually out in the usual karaoke systems :) they have happy hours as well!

the server minji (MJ) is also super sweet and helpful— this was our first time coming here and using a youtube karaoke so she guided us through everything :)“

The staff VERY friendly & helpful. I went to Cap Exp to meet a friend. Can not wait to try Law Exp (near me). You won’t be sorry. Enjoy‼️‼️“

“Had an awesome experience at Pizza My Heart, thanks to Kai! He was super friendly, welcoming, and made the whole visit smooth and enjoyable. He took the time to answer our questions, made sure our order was right, and checked in to see if we needed anything else, even when the store got busy.

Kai handled everything with patience and professionalism, and you can tell he really cares about providing great customer service. His positive attitude and attention to detail stood out and made a big difference in our visit. Definitely one of the best customer service experiences I’ve had, thank you, Kai!“

“Food here at Lee’s Kitchen is fresh, plentiful, and served piping hot. We have been here twice in a year and so far the food hasn’t disappointed. The staff are friendly. The dine in experience could use an update as there are faded pictures of the played food on the wall“

“One of the best RAMEN 🍜 I have ever taste and highly recommended.“

“This is a reallly wholesome, family-run Indian vegetarian restaurant. For $18, they have a very tasty all you can eat buffet. They bring to your table some fresh made chapati too. There is a delicious lemon pudding for dessert and also always fresh fruit. If you want some good home cooking, this is the place.“

“Perfect for watch parties.“

“Friendly. Excellent customer service!“

“I really enjoyed this place. One of the best halal spots i’ve been too. Authentic and flavorful, portions are big. The people working here are kind and the restaurant is clean and well kept. I got beef/lamb and it was tender, and juicy cooked to perfection. I would definitely recommend this spot.“

“hot and fresh the way I like my food“

“My favorite place for jajangmyeon! Don’t miss the tangsuyuk and jjamppong. Stir-fried jajangmyeon is great for larger groups due to its portion size.

The line gets long during lunch and dinner, so arrive early. The parking lot is small, but there's usually street parking nearby.

Service is quick and efficient, and they’ll box up any leftovers for you.“

“Great food, nice outdoor seating and good people, they serve you with a smile.. i like that.. 👍👍“

“This place has been here for a long time, I recall coming here to study and have pizza in 2005! Same consistency with the delicious pizza!! The chicken anything ones are my fav! The kids adore the Hawaiian pizza. And something about the ranch, is just one of a kind! Service is fabulous and so courteous. Leftovers are so good and fresh too… I totally recommend this place.“

“Among many Korean BBQ restaurants, this place truly stands out for both quality and value. Compared to other BBQ spots, the pricing is very reasonable, allowing families to enjoy a satisfying and filling meal together. Side dishes are generously refilled, the meat quality is excellent, and the service is consistently attentive and friendly. This is definitely a must-try Korean BBQ restaurant in the Bay Area.“

“Mio Vicino is a Santa Clara institution. Consistently great food. Friendly atmosphere. It’s a Perry family go to place for sure! 😎👍🏼“

“Absolutely delicious food“

“The pitas here are amazing. We usually get the chicken pita and lamb giro. The freshness of the ingredients and the flavors keep us coming back. The staff is friendly and the restaurant is super clean and comfortable (air conditioning on a hot day feels awesome!)“

“The tamalesis must have and must try! The best corn tamales I ever had in my entire life❤️“
