16 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Soquel

“Amazing vegetarian food! The California burger and High Horse sandwich were both excellent—packed with flavor and really satisfying.

Highly recommend if you're in Santa Cruz and looking for great plant-based options.“

“I can’t say enough good things about Brad, Linda, and staff. They are wonderful to be around and everyone really cares about the food. There is something on the menu for the vast majority of eaters. The garden on site is walkable and absolutely gorgeous. For food: beef cheeks, fried chicken, and any pasta you care for. Wine: a broad selection of interesting bottles Non-alcoholic: lemonade 😋“

“Very good overall. Pizza is consistently to my liking - thin bubbly crust, not too heavy on the toppings. If you love Oak & Rye, Del Poppolo, Manresa, Bantam then this is closer to those than not. Excellent Caesar salad, and the fried appetizer (usually green beans or cauliflower) is always spot on.

I’m not huge on dessert, especially brownies, but the brown butter gelato, and the brownie a la mode, are worth eating.

And the service is always friendly.

February 2026 - still going strong. Caesar remains one of the best three in town. My new favorite pizza here is the Nduja; have had Nduja pizza elsewhere but the combination of the black olives and arrested onions works very very well.“

“The Chipotle Chicken Club is fantastic! The pepper jack and chipotle mayo hit the perfect blend of heat and flavor. It comes with onion ring on the sandwich, but it still eats pretty light. Indoor and outdoor seating. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Always a good sign when the employees seem happy to be at work. Give them a shot, you won’t regret it.“
