50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Sunnyvale

“Happy Flower Eatery is one of the best spots in the South Bay for vegan Southeast Asian food. I've tried many spots in my vegan journey and didn't expect to come across a new favorite in the last few months. Our group of four ordered a combination of items from their Sampler Appetizer of rolls, Salted Fish Fried Rice, Mushroom Stew, and Beyond Meat String Beans Stir-Fry. Portions were great for every dish and the flavors were all there. My friends couldn't believe some of the items were plant-based but it goes to show that seasoning and preparation make a difference to any dish. Service was very friendly as well. The manager checked in on us to make sure we were enjoying our food and I appreciated their service. The area itself doesn't have much but well worth it to experience some great Vietnamese and Southeast Asian inspired vegan cuisine.“

“Just devoured dinner at Merit Vegan - think "family dinner" vibes with a plant-based twist. The corndogs and cheesecake? Unreal. Parking's easy, portions are generous, and the staff is pure sunshine.“

“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.“

“We came here for dinner and ordered zhajiang mian, another fried noodle dish, and, on the waiter’s recommendation, the salt and pepper fried eggplant. It ended up being our favorite, so we’re really glad he convinced us to try it!

The waiter (also maybe the owner?) is super enthusiastic and loves to suggest dishes you might not have considered. I didn’t find it pushy at all. First, he's running a business and, of course, wants you to explore the menu. Second, he mentioned that if we didn’t like his recommendation, we wouldn’t have to pay. It was actually refreshing, especially since positive, enthusiastic service isn’t what Chinese restaurants are typically known for (as a Chinese person, this is pretty normal to me). I also noticed that he doesn’t pressure people who aren’t interested, so he really knows how to read the room.

This spot is definitely getting added to our regular dinner rotation!“

“Great experience! Food was fresh, served quickly and delicious. Loved the customer service! Will definitely be coming back! Wishing you guys the best!“

“Tong Sui Desserts & Drinks in Sunnyvale offers an interesting take on traditional desserts, though it didn’t quite match my personal preferences.

Signature Dishes: Maybe it’s just me, but I didn’t love their tong sui signature dishes. As a huge coconut fan, I felt like the addition of flavors like strawberry or vanilla made it taste a bit too western for my liking, taking away from the authentic coconut flavor I enjoy. While the concept is creative, the execution didn’t quite hit the mark for me.

Pricing: The pricing definitely felt a bit high for what you get. While the desserts are decent, I don’t think they justify the cost, especially considering the size and flavor profile of the dishes.

Service: The service, however, was great. The staff were helpful and friendly, offering suggestions and answering questions with a smile. They made the experience much more pleasant, and I appreciate their attentiveness.

Ambience: The ambience was solid as well. It’s a cozy space with a relaxed vibe, making it a nice place to unwind while enjoying your dessert. The atmosphere contributes positively to the overall experience.

Overall, while Tong Sui Desserts & Drinks has a nice vibe and good service, the desserts and pricing didn’t quite work for me. It’s worth checking out if you’re open to their unique take on traditional flavors, but it wasn’t exactly what I was hoping for.“

“I’ve been a huge fan of Craft Roots for 5 years and visit the restaurant in Morgan Hill every time I’m nearby that area. They recently decided to try a “ghost kitchen” model in Sunnyvale. I’m generally a skeptic of delivery-only restaurants, but am joyful in this case that Craft Roots is expanding in any form. And what I’ve had by take-out or delivery is just as good as the food from the brick and mortar location“

“Great neighborhood ice cream store that features a variety of unique flavors! Highly recommend this if you are in the Sunnyvale area and are looking for eggless ice cream options. Plenty of great options to choose from at incredible prices!“

“Very good food with good service. Definitely, recommend for a visit“

“Solid food that's centered on a Taiwanese menu but mixed in with a bunch of other Asian cuisines, like Korean Army Stew. They have a super extensive hot pot menu, and the spicy dishes are truly spicy.

Prices are very reasonable and quantities are large. Service is solid too. I'll definitely be coming back!“

“A fantastic endearing Ice-cream tasting & eating experience that causes you to marvel at the stature that Ice-cream making has come to acquire can indeed be felt on the palate with every Icecream flavor at PINTS OF JOY. The service with Smiles & Excitement & warmth of the Servers caught my attention. It made the experience all the more endearing. I tried many & loved the Jalebi with Malai Kulfi Ice-cream. A remarkable unique Indian Ice-cream. As an Indian American I feel immensely proud to see the popularity this Ice-cream has come to acquire in the heart of Silicon Valley! This Ice-cream venture is showcasing India Impressively internationally: tickling the taste buds!“

“Excellent food, drinks and service.“

“Very nice casual restaurant, that I visited while in Sunnyvale. I had the salmon, roasted potatoes, and asparagus. My food tasted fresh and flavorful. The atmosphere was clean and well lit. We will definitely come back when we are in town again.“

“delicious! lots of vegetarian options!“

“Hobee's is not permanently closed. It's open for me even though Google said it was permanently closed. Don't listen to what it says on the map unless it says it's open and delicious! A vegan friendly! Vegetarian friendly! And a whole bunch of deliciousness all rolled into one restaurant! A wonderful atmosphere. Good service. Great. People couldn't ask for more!

Dietary restrictions: Tofu scramble is delicious!

Kid-friendliness: My little one's very happy!

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, it's wheelchair accessible!“

“The food was delicious and the latte was amazing!
I would love to see more vegan options - maybe a burger, avocado toast, and pastry (or two). If there was a bit more variety in vegan options, I think I'd be coming here all the time.

Dietary restrictions: There are some vegan and vegetarian options

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a wheelchair ramp and button at an accessible height to open the door“

“Speedy’s is awesome. Fresh ingredients, great tasting food. Hands down my favorite Mexican restaurant.“

“Eddie best service and great communication due to the covid situation. Highly recommended and look fwd to going again soon“

“Pav Bhaji & More is a good food truck overall.

Pav Bhaji: The Pav Bhaji is absolutely outstanding—rich, flavorful, and packed with authentic spices that hit all the right notes. It’s easily one of the best I’ve had and an absolute delight for anyone craving real street-style flavors.

Portion Size and Value: The portion size is shockingly small, especially given the pricing. It’s hard to overlook how inadequate the quantity is, which really impacts the overall value for money.

Service: The service is average. While the staff are polite, there’s room for improvement in terms of efficiency and attentiveness.

Ambience: For a food truck, the ambience is impressive. The seating area is clean, well-maintained, and provides a comfortable spot to enjoy your meal outdoors.

Overall, the Pav Bhaji is exceptional, but the portion size leaves much to be desired.

Vegetarian options: Tasty vegetarian food and options“

“This small mom and pop shop sells one of the best banh mi. They have a large variety of options including vegetarian. They also have packed snacks, pandas cake, Vietnamese coffee etc. Very reasonably priced too. I keep coming back here! Only take out, no dining.“

“Great place for a quick yet freshly made Mediterranean food! We tried the falafel pita wrap with babaganoush and fries + chicken shawarma with rice , hummus and and walnut pepper dip (just so amazing). The chicken was succulent and perfectly spiced and the falafel was crispy yet light. Love all their sides and extra sauces too. Don’t miss out on the freshly squeezed juices- orange carrot was my favorite!“

“Friendly staff. Delicious food. Great community partners too.“

“great food. good price. very good staff“

“Good bakery for a variety of eggless cakes and other baked treats, which are always delicious and fresh. We have tried their pastries and puffs, and they don’t disappoint.

Would recommend their custom cakes too. Staff is accommodating to all requests.“

“Its a hole in the wall type of place.. so if you're looking for homestyle food and the best service you can get.. this is the place you want be in. When you eat at someone's home, your host usually watches you diligently to make sure they are catering to you before you need to ask for something.. they try to anticipate your needs and offer it.. well, this is the place for that type of treatment!!
We were a group of 4.. but ordered MORE food than we can handle.. what did they do first? Take our order.. when the food seemed like it might fill up our table fast, they just casually came over and added an extension to our table.. so we can fit our food while we eat comfortably.. like WHAT? Most restaurants will think about keeping that table free for other guests.. It was not a quiet night either.
After that.. they saw how much we've eaten.. and say.. maybe you want chai instead of the chaas you ordered? We're like.. as a matter of fact.. you're right.. thats what feels good right now. 2 chai please.
As we're shamelessly packing it up, we missed asking boxes for a couple of items.. no no.. they observed.. and brought us extra boxes for those items.
As we walk away not wanting to ask for anything more.. they come over to hand us plastic bags so we're not going to mess up our cars.. no we did not ask for them.

Now.. this is what I call service and the food was AMAZING! We loved everything.. didn't leave anything behind.. I am still eating the portions we ordered and I cant wait to eat it again for dinner! YUMMY! I wish I could give them more than 5 stars for their service

Dietary restrictions: Its fully vegetarian.. but I think you can ask to make things vegan.. its really just butter or ghee they will need to refrain from adding.“

“Amazing customer service , friendly staff.“

“Great food! Enjoy my meal every time!!“

“The quality of the food from Falafel Stop is really good: the falafels are a significant step above Falafel Drive-in and especially Oren’s. The vegan food is prepared at a separate counter from the meat. During the lunch rush, sometimes the owner will walk around with a plate of falafels to hand out to folks waiting in line. Weekdays at lunch get busy: there’s a high school across the street. Parking can get tricky, especially because the owner seems to have a thing for antique cars and sometimes parks his Cybertruck across a few spots when he’s around. Since they enclosed the patio seating, it’s a bit nicer (no fending off pigeons) but the ambiance is still pretty lacking. It’s right next to a 10-lane highway and can get pretty hot during the summer. But the food is great. My favorite is to order the falafel salad with three extra pita (one comes with it) and then you can make 4 falafels for the cost of 2. Make sure to get medium spice and the peppers if you can tolerate some heat. The fries are very hit or miss, for some reason. Sometimes they’re nice and crispy with a pleasant seasoning. But often they’re only salted and feel soggy. Not sure why. You order inside and then take your receipt to another line to the right for them to make the food. For some reason, ordering via DoorDash in the evenings gets you a little crispy cauliflower on the falafel salad? Not bad but strange. Also weird is the cafe that seems abandoned next door. I guess that didn’t work out for them or was just too confusing.“

“I tried the Halal Pepperoni and Chicken Tikka pizza, and it was absolutely awesome! The flavors were perfectly balanced, with the spiced chicken tikka adding a rich and smoky kick, while the pepperoni brought that classic savory goodness. The crust was just the right amount of crispy and chewy, and the toppings were generous. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for a delicious halal pizza option!“

“Our group of 17 was superbly handled. Thanks team!“

“This is the best pan-fried soup dumpling I’ve had in the Bay Area. The xiao long bao have thicker skins, and while I personally prefer the thinner ones from Din Tai Fung, these still have plenty of soup and aren’t bad. The dumplings, mushroom pork buns, chicken pan-fried dumplings, and spicy beef hotpot were all solid and tasty, though not particularly outstanding. The scallion bun is packed with scallions, making it a must-try for scallion lovers. Overall, the food was delicious, and I’ll definitely visit again.“

“This is an unassuming little place in Washington St. near the main drag of Murphy Ave. There were lots of Pho options, along with starters and more solid dishes. We went for the Pho because we were trying to shake the last effects of annoying colds. To quote my wife, the chicken option was Photastic! Very savory and flavorful with the regular add ins like bean sprouts, jalapenos, basil and onions.

The setting was basic but upbeat, and holiday tunes played while we are. The server was friendly and attentive and made suggestions to help us choose from the menu.

To those who say the meals are pricey, we paid about $50 for the both of us with the Pho, eggrolls and tip, but we got two meals out of it, and the soup apparently takes 16 hours to fully prepare. Definitely recommend.“

“I and two friends dined at Chelokababi Restaurant on Saturday evening, December 17, 2022. It was our first experience at this beautiful and comfortable establishment, and we were impressed with the food and service. I and one friend had Geymeh Bademjoon, which was delicious and very satisfying. My other friend had Shish Kabob with salad, and he said he enjoyed it. I would dine here regularly if I didn't live in Seattle!“

“I like pho and this places serves it really well!

Got the house special selection large size and it came out really fast. Comes with all the ingredients you would expect from an excellent pho. There were a lot of noodles in there and the broth was super tasty! The beef was also quite enjoyable. I would definitely come back to eat more pho.

Parking: Parking right in front of the door.“

“Great good! Clean friendly“

“Bowl of Pho has been the hidden treasure of Pho spots here in Sunnyvale/Cupertino. My wife and I love their Pho bowls both Beef and Chicken styles, they’ve always delivered high quality food. Our favorite side dish has been their Fried Egg Rolls which are STUFFED! And the Thai Teas have been sweet and delicious! Definitely our go to place.“

“My wife LOVES burritos! It’s her favorite food! She’s been to many taquerias, but this is one of her favorites! It’s rare for her to say that she REALLY likes something, but she can’t stop talking about this place!

She got the carne asada super burrito! She also said the sauce is amazing too!

We live in San Bruno (close to SF), but we’ll drive down for this place! 10/10!“

“Overall, it felt like a restaurant-quality experience at home. If you're a momo lover like me, Asian Momo House should definitely be on your list. Highly recommended!“

“good food and helpful service“

“The food is amazing. We go there every week, but it’s not all about the food. Sandy and her staff make us feel like family. We truly appreciate them! ❤️❤️❤️“

“So, the recipes are long time family recipes. the Southern Mexico dishes are the ones to try! the red mole and the piping and pibil are amazing. The best red mole in my opinion. If you are watching Like Water for Chocolate, come check out some of the dishes in the movie! The Chile Nogada is good but I like it with Sour Cream on the side.“

“We ordered Vijaywada Chicken Biryani and I must say it was delicious. As the name suggest , it was very spicy . I don’t generally eat this spicy but loved it . The real authentic biryani flavor with South Indian twist . Will definitely try again .
And the quantity was sufficient for 2 persons.“

“The food is great and they have great bloody Mary’s“

“During my recent visit to Ananda Bhavan, I ordered their uttappam and rava dosa. The uttappam was soft and generously topped with onions and chilies, offering a pleasant taste. The rava dosa was crisp with a subtle flavor, accompanied by sambar and chutneys that complemented the dish well.

While both items were enjoyable, they didn't quite capture the authentic flavors found in India. The dishes lacked the depth and richness characteristic of traditional South Indian cuisine. However, considering the challenges of sourcing authentic ingredients abroad, this is understandable.

The restaurant offers a wide variety of dosas and other South Indian specialties, making it a popular choice among locals. The ambiance is casual, and the service is efficient. Prices are slightly higher compared to other South Indian eateries in the area, but the quality is decent.“

“Awesome food!!! Yummy Soy chap🤩“

“Best coffee in town if ever in the neighborhood you want coffee, you should seek out Philz located in town down Sunnyvale“

“The food and service is top notch. We found this awesome place and will certainly be back to try more of the menu“

“I recently moved to area and walk with kimmy to nearby park. Bibimbowl is on the route. So far try bento type box for lunch and tacos ?. Excellent!!! Service with a smile. Probably too americanized for a purist but perfect for my taste. Patio for kimmy. Highly recommend and kimmy gives 2 paws up.“

“The Pho is great!“

“Unassuming little hole in the wall that can barely seat 8 but serves incredible food. I got the pesarattu upma and was delighted by the texture and the flavors. The upma was just right and the sambar and chutney were on point.

The poori was a bit on the dry side but the chole more than made up for it.

Unfortunately chai is still served with no sugar, but it made for a good ending. This will be on my favorites list!“
