50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Sherman Oaks

“This place is AMAZING! It’s completely unassuming from the exterior; but the food and the service was way beyond my expectations! I truly wish there was a French restaurant like this in San Diego; I’d eat there at least once a week!!!“

“Always a hit for a group meal, date night, catch up with a friend. I've had at least 3 birthday meals (brunch/dinner) between this location and West Hollywood. The flavors/execution of the food is truly top notch, and the decor and ambience is always so cute, warm, and comforting.“

“Phenomenal experience and the staff was excellent.“

“Super delicious!! Friendly service!! Reasonable prices and cozy, trendy atmosphere. Definitely a new favorite comfort food spot ?Great spot for a get together with friends, family, or even a date!We had the Roti & Curry starter and Pineapple Fried Rice. The curry dip was hearty and creamy and paired perfectly with the crunchy roti. The fried rice was the perfect balance of fresh produce and indulgent fried goodness. It's the kind of amazing dish that leaves you feeling satiated but not bloated! All of my compliments to the chef.

Vegetarian options: Everything was Vegan

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options, dishes containing nuts clearly labeled“

“The artistic name of the bistro matches the artistry and delicious flavors of the cuisine. A threesome: vegetarian, vegan, and carnivore found a multitude of savory options. Our waiter/thesbian: Chris was charming and anticipated our every request. Foreseeing a return.“

“Love the atmosphere of this comfortably casual bar. Ample outdoor seating provides the perfect spot to sip a beer or two relaxing in the sunshine. I don’t eat meat so I haven’t tried the burgers, which come highly recommended. The garlic parmesan fries are excellent and enough for 3 people. Sorry I can’t say the same for the cauliflower wings or pretzels with cheese sauce. But I had the best-poured beer of my life—a fresh Scrimshaw pilsner in a sparkling-clean glass. See attached video. Despite the venue’s name, they now offer cocktails as well as beer and wine.“

“Deliciously healthy salads and smoothies that now come with zero waste options too!“

“NYC cheese slices are my jam, and we have an embarrassment of riches in Sherman Oaks. Within a mile of each other, there are three, count 'em three, authentic NY slice shops. My son and I visited all three of them on a self-guided cheese slice tour of Sherman Oaks. Pizza Wagon was stop three on the tour!

The atmosphere is good...NY decor on the walls in what feels like a truly neighborhood / not-chain space. The service was great too...the staff worked quickly and were abundantly friendly and helpful.

They do a good job with authentic style slices...the right amount of crisp on the crust and a good ratio of sauce versus cheese. The chew was good, though both the crust and sauce don't quite have the superior flavor profile of the nearby places.

It's definitely a good alternative to those, though, and miles ahead of the major chain pizzas in terms of NY style.“

“Great food, always something new and delicious!!“

“We’ve been coming for over a year now, and every time we go the service is top notch. The owner takes a moment to talk to us and to make sure we are having a great time. Their cuisine is exquisite, better than other over-rated Italian restaurants in the valley. They always surprise you with their delicious tiramisu dessert.
If you’re craving Italian food, this restaurant will always hit the spot.“

“First time eating Indian food. The meal was excellent! The service was excellent! We will be going back.“

“Little Izaka-ya is my go-to neighborhood sushi spot, and it never disappoints! The servers always remember me, which adds such a nice, welcoming touch to every visit. It feels like a place I can count on for a great time and delicious food every single time. The sushi rolls are consistently fresh and full of flavor, but my personal favorite is the white fish roll—YUM! It’s always a treat. I also love how easy it is to make a reservation, making dining here super convenient. Whether it’s for a casual night out or a special dinner, Little Izaka-ya always delivers. Highly recommend!“

“Absolutely delicious Portuguese food!“

“Basic diner ambience, the food is always good. I’m a picky eater wanting crispy home fries and crispy bacon and 9out of 10 they deliver exactly as ordered. Good service and it has an overall good vibe“

“My husband and I just recently discovered this Gem about little over a month ago . We’ve already been here twice and Oh my goodness this place is amazing!!!!!!! First and foremost, the customer service is top tier!!!! Mike is absolutely amazing , he’s very attentive and has such a beautiful soul . ☺️ as for the food , it is absolutely delicious!!!!!!!! The pizza is soooo good the first time we went I had the Margherita pizza thin crust, the second time I went I had a classic pepperoni thin crust , both times were delicious. Add the hot honey and oh ny goodness ….. it makes it even better!! We also had the buffalo wings , and garlic fries . Everything tasted amazing! We will be stopping by here often.“

“Excellent Lebanese restaurant! The food was authentic, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service was attentive, and the ambiance was warm and inviting. Highly recommend for anyone craving genuine Lebanese cuisine!“

“Lovely food, charming interior. We had carpaccio, lobster bisque, crispy duck, and potato crusted salmon. The dishes were all prepared very well. The fresh bread was quite good, served with harissa, etc. We very much enjoyed the nut tart served with vanilla sauce and very nice hazelnut gelato. Can’t wait to go again.“

“I’d say even though waiting time was quite long (but to be fair, the place was really busy), I can get over that because the staff were super friendly. The portion wasn’t huge, but that’s actually a good thing . I’m not fan of wasting food, and since it’s not oversized, you can actually finish your plate. Plus, the price is really good, one of less locations where you get a real dish im mean not fastfood for these price 👍🏽“

“My family and I love eating here! The food is always fresh, delicious, and packed with protein while being low in calories, perfect for healthy eating. The team members are always so friendly and attentive, and the restaurant is consistently clean and well-organized. We love taking advantage of the kids-eat-free promotion, but even without it, we find ourselves coming here at least once or twice a week. Highly recommend“

“Had three different tacos Brisket was awesome Other two very good But brisket!!!“

“Me & my husband go here regularly. Amazing staff, food is ace! real taste of home. We often go with our family and every time- food,drinks & staff have been spot on. The Tuck shop next door 🚪 OMG do not get me started we easily spend a small fortune each time. Because we know we can stock up & the price is reasonable. we actively choose to drive their rather than go online because it's about supporting other businesses & expats. This pub truly has an English atmosphere. Reminds me home UK & Ireland. THEY GOT CRACKERS IN! birds custard, every sweet you could want. if you are British & you are in LA. if you ent been here...are you even britsh?“

“We visited this location for the second time today, and enjoyed it just as much as the first time we went to eat there. The Sherman Oaks location is one of the nicest P.F. Chang’s around, as we’ve been to quite a few in Southern California. Staff is always polite and professional, and I want to give a big “thank you” to our server, Aliyah. She was so friendly, sweet, accommodating, and is exceptionally good at her job, and it really showed! We’ve had some good and bad dinning experiences at other restaurants in the past, so it’s nice and refreshing to know that people like Aliyah truly care about the customer experience. It also reflects well on the management—that being, they spend the time and effort in training and employing great staff like her.

See you again, sometime in the future.“

“I love Avocado Toast ❤️ I’ll be back“

“Absolutely AMAZING 🤩 🤩🤩 Just WOW 🙌🙌🙌 Must Try 💯💯💯 Will be back 😋😋😋 5 STARS all the way ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Andreas Super helpful and knowledgeable about all the foods on the menu the chef always hook it up fresh. Oh my God, cucumber salad stuff. It’s unbelievable delicious number of sauces. You can choose from really affordable and large portions. You have to try this place multiple different choices. Trust me you will not be disappointed.“

“Great food and staff! You guys rock !!!“

“This is our go-to sushi restaurant. The food never disappoints. The service is very friendly.“

“This place is absolutely amazing! I rarely write reviews, but I had to make an exception for this one. My son and I absolutely loved it here. Everything was perfect—the food, the atmosphere, and the overall experience! The complimentary cucumber salad and miso soup were such a delightful touch. This is officially my go-to sushi spot from now on. Highly recommend it to everyone!“

“The best of the best Israeli/Mediterranean kosher food home made and you can taste the diffrence! I cant praise them enough. Try and you won't be disappointed! Amazing!!!“

“Valley Inn is a dining icon, providing the last-century vibes and more classic cuisine. If you're into trendy, don't come here. The roast duckling is divine and so is the garlic bread. Bbq ribs and clam chowder are good, too. They do great burgers, too. But really, it's a comfort hub, with comfy booths and consistent cuisine. The bar is always hopping with a 50s and up crowd.“

“Great food! Friendly staff and quick service. Casual atmosphere.“

“Always great food, fresh and delicious!“

“I love this place. The first thing I wanna talk about is the team. They are absolutely amazing. I’ve been in there twice this week and I cannot stress you how friendly the staff is. How helpful they are with all the questions and requests that my wife and I had. There was no request that was too big. The entire time we waited for our food I watched the gentleman at the front counter, engage with customer after customer with the same respect and helpfulness. The food is super fresh. The atmosphere is great and the price is reasonable. I highly recommend giving this place a try if you haven’t. Try the unique sodas from the fountain. They are amazing. The root beer was one of the best I ever tasted.“

“best fry chicken in town 👍“

“I love Kinza. It’s a cute but no pretension type of sushi spot! Their rolls come with 10 pieces (not 8) AND you can order half size rolls even for their specialty rolls which is INCREDIBLE. Very fresh, flavorful, lots of good combos, and service is excellent.

If you can’t find parking on the street, park in the alley behind the restaurant!“

“11/13/25
My name is Jon and today was my first time visiting Lemonzest. Mediterranean food is my favorite and I am extremely happy that I accidentally found this location while walking by it. I was immediately greeted by the two team members who both had amazing energy that made me feel welcomed!! The music and atmosphere was perfect for anyone to relax while simply enjoying lunch or dinner. Of course, the food... mmm mmm! I am in love with how delicious the food was. The rice was light and flavorful, the chicken was very tender, and the salad was perfectly fresh. For sure Lemonzest will be my first choice when I am too lazy to cook at home.
To the team members, thank you! I will be back soon.
Jon.“

“I recently visited Oliva Trattoria, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The restaurant has an immaculate, authentic Italian atmosphere—warm lighting, clean presentation, and a staff that treats every detail with care. I started with their Margherita pizza, which was executed perfectly: a blistered, airy crust, vibrant tomato sauce, and fresh mozzarella that blended into each bite. It's a simple dish, but Oliva Trattoria elevates it with true Italian precision. The handmade pasta dishes were the highlight of the night. The pappardelle tartufo was incredibly rich and aromatic, with the perfect balance of truffle flavor and silky, fresh pasta. The ravioli matched that quality—delicate, beautifully filled, and bursting with fresh ingredients. Altogether, Oliva Trattoria delivered one of the best Italian meals I've had in recent memory, and it's a spot I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking for authentic, high-quality Italian cuisine.“

“Great food with good experiance“

“They are the best of the B E S T! We love them! The experiences I've had there are mind blowing! 🌋🔥☄“

“While recently visiting the area, I ran in to pick up takeout sushi for my two older teenagers. The restaurant felt like it had a locals vibe and the service was very friendly and professional. My kids said the sushi rolls they ordered were fresh and absolutely on point! Would return and recommend!“

“I’m a shawarma expert—I’ve eaten it almost everywhere in the world, including London and Germany—and nothing compares to this shawarma. There’s a place in the Middle East famous for excellent shawarma that Arabs travel from all over to visit, and this one beats it. I’m shocked at how good it is. You simply can’t visit Los Angeles without trying it (and yes, I’ve already tried three other shawarma places here—there’s no comparison).“

“Great place to network! Perfect local Go to place after work or meet new business links and more.“

“Vegetarian options: Their guac is vegan friendly

Parking: After I think 11ish the $20 valet parking lot is free. If you're going early park at the ralphs down the street and walk to the bar.

Kid-friendliness: It's a bar 21+ they ID as soon as you walk in.

Wheelchair accessibility: I don't think I saw any stairs to the entrance. But the set up inside is fairly crowded and dark idk how accessible that is unless you're a paraolympian with nightvision“

“the Island bowls are so fresh and healthy. Its good with hoison sauce. Tiki tai good also“

“Great for meal prep ideas, healthy options and home style authentic Mexican food for sure.“

“Delicious food, I enjoyed myself there and the spaghetti was great just like expected 🧡“

“The BEST in Sherman Oaks..Great Owner ..Mr..Wilson. .... Breakfast and Lunch ..Stars 🤩 Come And Go . He's Been There for Decades...👍🏽❤️🙏🏽“

“I f you’re a real pizza lover, you need to try this place. The attention to detail is what sets them apart – the wood-fired crust had that perfect char, the sauce tasted homemade, and the toppings were generous without overpowering the base. I also tried their white pizza and was shocked at how flavorful it was. Not greasy at all, and perfectly balanced. They care about what they serve, and it shows. Best pizza experience I’ve had in the areal“

“The best of the BEST! Such a lovely spot! 🥰🍜🥘🫕🥣🧆“

“Always a fun time with my family whenever we go to Kura.“
