50 Best Vegan Restaurants near Stanford

“Incredibly friendly atmosphere. Perfect for studying and sipping on a warm drink. Staff is friendly and genuine. Food is served in HUGE portions and you can’t beat the price. Have been here countless times!“

“Phenomenal food at a student-friendly price! Had lunch with the wife today at this magnificent establishment and it was terrific. This cafeteria is part of the Stanford Graduate School of Business and is apparently where all of the b-school eager beavers refuel on sustenance. ? I particularly appreciated the, oh-so-clever, names that accompanied each of the food stations. ? Haha, you can totally tell this is where all of the MBA people hang out! Definitely get lunch here if you're in the area!“

“Met up with some friends in Palo Alto and stopped by The Treehouse while walking around Stanford University on a Sunday. Such a perfect spot because they have a little bit of everything, so everyone could find something they liked. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was casual and fun, and it was the perfect stop during a beautiful day exploring the Stanford campus. Definitely a great place to grab a bite if you’re in the area!“

“All time favorite cafe latte spot. With waffle & strawberries. At 7:30am!“

“lots to see. you need 2 hours min. also sculptured gardens“

“I was meaning to write this last week, but a few days ago I went to visit Stanford University and I came across this cafe. The cashier at the time (whose name is Jose) was so nice and helpful with my order. Not only did he recommend a great food and drink item but he also informed me about the rewards system and he helped me go through the process step by step. I don't normally write these types of reviews, but I wanted to spend an extra minute out of my day to do this because I could tell he works hard, and good service can be quite hard to come by these days. This made my visit to Stanford very pleasing and I cant wait to go back! Thank you for taking the time to cater to me, Jose!“

“Oh my friends, this is the spot for amazing Ramen! I went all the way across the country for an accompanied business trip and was told I could not come to Palo Alto California and not stop in to Ramen Nagi. Every minute of waiting in line was worth it for your food. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the amazing experience! I'll miss you.“

“Best vegan food in Palo Alto. I eat here as often as I can. FYI, it's cash only for smaller orders. Very highly recommended.“

“In July of this year we celebrated our 60 th wedding anniversary by booking their side room.for a dinner party. Carlos , manager , was so helpful in planning menu and each guests could order thatvnite with everyone menu. We had choice of 2 salads, 5 entrees and 2 desserts. Our guests all raved about food and service. There was a table with appetizers for guests as they arrived and presented so nicely. Couldn’t have been happier and we were not charged for the room which several other places wanted to charge for just room. My daughter in law was able to go over that Saturday morning to decorate and put all flower arrangements in the tables. It looked amazing. Can’t say enough good things about the evening. Good service the best ‘“

“Great food and pet friendly.“

“Great! I love this place. So good.“

“Amazing food and excellent service - highly recommend“

“An exceptional culinary experience at Protégé in Palo Alto. Every dish showcased masterful technique and impeccable flavors. The A5 Japanese Wagyu Ribeye was perfectly marbled and melted effortlessly, while the Crab and Caviar delivered a luxurious balance of brine and sweetness. The lobster toast was crisp, buttery, and indulgent, and the Black Bass—flawless in execution—was the best I’ve encountered. The Ricotta Dumplings , delicate yet deeply flavorful, rounded out an unforgettable meal. The shigoku oysters with whipped ponzu were indescribably fresh and flavorful. The sunflower Caesar, with its preserved tomato jam, was a unique and unforgettable twist on a classic. As for the brick chicken that we took to go, it was so delicious that it barely made it home before being devoured. The experience was elevated even further by the outstanding service—every person was kind, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to creating a memorable evening. A true showcase of precision, creativity, and hospitality“

“Always have 2 slices 1 is never enough. It’s that good..“

“Dinner at Evvia more than lived up to its reputation. We ordered across the menu — the yiouvetsi (slow-cooked goat with orzo and artichoke hearts), a whole grilled fish with horta, lamb chops, and the lamb souvlaki — and there wasn't a weak dish on the table. Finished with the galaktoboureko for dessert, which turned out to be exactly the right call.
Proper Greek cooking, no shortcuts. I'd happily go back.“

“The food was great and our server Sam was amazing. He was very patient and gives you a good suggestion. The only reason I took out one star was, the table for two people was so small we didn’t have enough room to put all our meals together and dine comfortably otherwise we had a great experience.“

“love this place. might be expensive but worth it been com I ng here for years“

“I found this bakery when I was looking for a place to purchase alfajores and I was so happy to have found it! I was greeted as soon as I walked in and my first visit was nothing but a very nice experience. Two young men behind the counter seemed really friendly and helpful. The other customers in the store at the time seemed very happy. I came for alfajores today, but I will definitely go back for more alfajores and other goodies!“

“Absolutely exquisite food that comes out fresh. Service was amazing & the people even though busy were very very helpful. Can't recommend this place & food enough.“

“I love Cuco’s!! All women staff. They do everything right.“

“Amazing food and excellent service!“

“Came in with family and tried mostly vegetarian options. There were plenty to choose from. Veg fried rice was really good and veg Manchurian had perfect Indo Chinese taste that I have had in a long time. We do recommend and would visit again.“

“Tried the strawberry‑guava drink and taro boba milk at Tong Sui. Both were fantastic. The strawberry‑guava is bright, fresh and fruity, not overly sweet. The taro boba milk has rich taro flavour with chewy boba. High‑quality ingredients and fast service. Such a lovely dessert spot in Palo Alto, will come back soon!🧋“

“Chef Marcus’ dishes are full of flavor & fresh ingredients that make for a spectacular culinary experience. 😋“

“My order was a Spicy-Crispy Chicken Sandwich, and OMGGG the best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had in awhile, don’t be fooled by the spicy, depending on your spice level, if you are a person that does not like spicy food, avoid this sandwich 🤣🤣 I eat spicy and it was a good spicy, I would definitely recommend this sandwhich. I accompanied this sandwhich with their delicious cheddar bacon ranch fries! BEST FRIES EVERRRR! The staff was very lovely and very nice!“

“I had an amazing experience at Italico Restaurant! The food was fresh and flavorful, especially the truffle pasta and wood-fired pizza. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was cozy yet modern. I’ll definitely be back to enjoy more of their delicious dishes. Highly recommend!“

“Sultana has been a great restaurant since its innception in 2006. Went there often when i had offices in Palo Alto. Now go when I'm in town. Service always friendly and impecable. Food is exquisite. Manti, Levrek, prawns Tiziki sp?, kabobs, baklava theres anither turkish dessert i cant recall the name - everything is mouth wateringly good. Atmosphere - outside with small fountain adds to ambiance. Inside tasteful without pretention.“

“If you’re trying their signature Miso Caramel Latte, may I recommend going with the iced latte option? While the hot latte is still good, the umami-ness of miso and the contrast of the flavors is much more pronounced in the iced latte version.“

“Very Nice staff and very clean kitchen and they always treat ME LIKE FAMILY WHEN I COME IN. I recommend this place and its a great addition to our community. Love Teena“

“Very good food!!! Awesome service!!! We will be back!!!“

“Got a burrito was really good. Our server , Sylvia recommended a margarita…it was great. So…great food, great drinks and great service.“

“Amazing place, such a quirky and original establishment.
Food was fantastic as well, the service was amazing. Every employee was so pleasant. Especially once they discovered we were from another state.
Each piece of art had its own story. (Which had a book to explain each piece)
Came highly recommended, & I would have to agree.“

“We had a great dining experience at Urban Plates in Long Beach. Mariana explained the menu choices in a very unrushed manner, and we decided on the steak. I ordered the Chimichurri grass-fed steak with balsamic brussel sprouts and herb-roasted potatoes. All of it was delicious ( and healthy too!). The deserts were absolutely killer too. We will definitely eat here again next time we're in Long Beach.“

“I ate at Pazzo on Wednesday and had a great experience. The restaurant is take out only. I ordered at the restaurant instead of on the phone. The staff were super friendly and helpful with recommendations. The order took about 20 minutes and we had a drink outside while waiting. I HIGHLY recommend the shrimp and grits. Over anything else on the menu! And I was told the gnocchi was amazing too iAnd of course the pizza is awesome!“

“Feel good food & atmosphere :)“

“I hope the business owner reads this. Your employee is costing you money. And your order yourself screen outside isn’t helping your business. We’re trying to order a falafel sandwich not a 5 course meal. Keep it simple and your employee should be able to take a simple order at the window with specific instructions.“

“If you’re looking for the best authentic Nepali cuisine in Sunnyvale, California, The Gurkha Kitchen is a must-visit. This place captures the true essence of Nepali flavors, offering a wide variety of traditional dishes prepared with fresh ingredients and authentic spices. The warm and inviting ambiance, combined with friendly service, makes it a favorite spot for Nepali food lovers. Whether it’s their momos, dal bhat, or signature curries, every dish is a treat for the taste buds. For anyone craving genuine Nepali cuisine, The Gurkha Kitchen is the place to be. Highly recommended for a taste of Nepal!“

“My husband and I love coming in for the lunch buffet. It's so delicious!“

“First time at dinner here. We started with rajasthani patta chaat . it was really good. very authentic taste from North India. paani puri was great too.
Dal Makhani deserves special mention. Cooked to perfection but why would they put sugar in it😏 my only reason for a 4. malai kofta and lachha parantha were great. I would recommend this place for a wholesome family meal.
might want to try their brunch menu someday. Heard great reviews about it.“

“delicious pastrami sandwiches🤤“

“Excellent, creative dishes! Good service!! 10 stars!!!“

“I had a great time over there. Delicious food 🥘“

“Stopped in for Dinner, only one vegan protein option, but it didn't disappoint, probably the best beyond meat ive ever tasted, great sides, and delicious strawberry mint lemonade as well, great atmosphere and very friendly and informative staff, will definitely return again“

“Elevated beer and pizza, and pinball to boot. Owners and staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Their pizza menu is solid, and they’re good with swapping out ingredients for vegans, etc.“
