8 Best Vegan Restaurants near South El Monte

“I can't stop thinking about this restaurant. The interior is very plain, but the table has all the sauces and utensils you need. The menu has a great selection. Once you order, the food comes out fast, and it's piping hot. Everything tasted super fresh. I had the spring rolls (10/10) and the curry with vermicelli AND bread. This was a lot of carbs, but worth it! If I had to pick one, though, I'd go with the bread; it was hot and crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. It was the last thing to come out, so I think they make it fresh. The flavor profile on the curry was amazing, and I can't compliment their mock meat enough; their chicken is some of the best I've had. My friend had the Pho and said it was great too. I will be going again. Updated from previous review on 2026-10-03“

“AMAZING!! THE BEST PLACE IN SOUTH EL MONTE!! TRY THE LOMO SALTADO ANDA THE TIKI FRIES“

“One of our fav Vietnamese restaurants!
Food is amazing and menu items are more than the basic pho soup and rice dishes. Try the bone marrow, the spicy fish, or the filet mignon with egg noodles! Damned delicious. Staff is also very nice.“

“Great service and food. The chips, salsa n appetizer beans are so yummy. Agua frescas are so good and refreshing. 😃“

“Lunch rush is always busy since it's a popular place. Come before 11am and you'll beat the rush. Vietnamese food here is tasty and the price is not too bad. Parking can be a headache during peak hours. Restaurant being on Garvey doesn't make the trip to this place any easier, but it can be worth it.“

“To over priced.“

“We enjoy hanging out. Yesterday we visited this excellent place which we didn’t know before. We enjoyed a beautiful experience there with very good meal and a well-trained stuff and an impressive chief cook. We put this fine restaurant in our phone list and we will certainly go again very soon. We deeply recommend.“
