50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Temecula

“Had the best experience yesterday! Jose was our server and he was very friendly and helpful. We ordered the carne fajitas and the steak was juicy and tender and everything was delicious. The white queso was perfectly delicious! Can’t wait to go back!!“

“Love the food, but the only problem is that Every Time we try to go, the place is closed. Today, a Tuesday, a paper sign hung over the hours saying they were closed. 😞 But when we can eat at Gentle Grill, the food is good!“

“Customer service is very important an that is what they give you, fresh food. Love going there with my kids they get to color while they wait and after picture are hung up so they can see it when we come back.“

“What a spectacular hidden gem of a restaurant! Our server was wonderful, attentive, meticulous, cheerful and knowledgable on the menu. The food was spectacular - so full of flavor! This is our new favorite spot!“

“Absolutely love Thirstea! Their Thai Tea and bubble waffles are a must-try. Fellow Filipinos, you have to check out their Halo Halo—it's the best in the valley! I've sampled many, but nothing compares to Thirstea's. They load it with toppings and the leche flan is incredibly fresh and authentic. Plus, the owner, Jose, is super friendly and a veteran, which adds to the great vibe. I’m really looking forward to their Karaoke night on Fridays! Highly recommend!“

“Love this place!🤩🤩 Great service💯“

“JUST GOOGLED THIS PLACE CAME FROM OUT OF TOWN ON BUSINESS, HANDS DOWN THE BEST MEDITERRANEAN FOOD I HAVE COME ACROSS. NOT SUPER CLOSE TO WHERE I LIVE BUT I WILL MAKE THE DRIVE. NOT A FANCY PLACE BUT EVERYTHING ABOUT IT IS 5 STAR. SAVE ROOM FOR DESERT.“

“Owner is incredibly friendly and the food is so good! With my mom in town, I knew she would love the bowls here. When I went to pickup my order, I told him how much my kids loved his cucumbers. He loaded us up with extras. We will definitely be back!“

“Remember that boulangerie you had breakfast at in Paris....just go to the Le Coffee Shop in Temecula. You will re-live the taste and memories.“

“This is one of the best decisions I have made. I had been very sketchy about credit repair. I thought it was a big lie and always had bad impressions and said negative comments, but my doubt was cleared when my friend Jolene recommended Metronet Credit Solution. A team of experienced credit experts that are always on standby to help. I them about my predicament and they promised to help. Within 11days they removed all negative accounts and cleared every negative item from all three credit-reporting bureaus, (TransUnion, Experian and Equifax) and raised my credit score to 790’s from the initial 589 and also added some positive trade line. I’ve got my new car thanks to the team at metronet for helping me qualify for an auto loan. I highly recommend metronet for any credit related issues. You can reach them on +12055183032 .“

“Swing Inn, Temecula, CA is located right in the heart of Old Town Temecula. My family and I had been wanting to try their food for a while, and we finally made it there for lunch.

Before you're seated, a staff member outside will ask whether you prefer indoor or outdoor seating. We ordered the Family Platter for $159, which is meant to serve 2–4 people. It was huge! All the meats were flavorful and so tender, they were easy to cut and even easier to enjoy. We couldn’t finish everything, so we asked for a to-go box and saved the rest for dinner.

There’s free parking behind the Swing Inn, which is super convenient.

By the way—did you know that actor Dean Norris from the Netflix series Breaking Bad took over the Swing Inn? My kids were hoping to meet him, but unfortunately, he wasn’t there when we visited. Some people said he does occasionally stop by as a surprise, though, so you might get lucky!

If you're planning to visit, I highly recommend sitting outdoors. Yes, it can be hot during the summer, but they have misters to help cool you down, and you’ll get a nice view of Old Town. Just keep in mind that it can be a bit noisy due to music from the pub across the street and passing cars. If you prefer a quieter and more private dining experience, indoor seating might be a better choice.“

“Everyone at Penfold’s was super friendly and the service is great. The food… YUM 😋“

“Me and my husband went to our fav ice cream place in Temecula! Justin helped us out and he was so kind. He let us try as many samples as we wanted!!! We got a 4 scoop sampler, it was so yummy 😋 ! This place always hits the spot. Will definitely be back!! 🍦❤️“

“Quick service and the best butter chicken I have ever had! Serving size was huge too, could literally feed the whole family with my one dish!“

“Pup patties! My dogs love them“

“we had a turkey croissant sandwich, cream cheese bagel, Agua fresca and a mocha latte....I can't not say enough good things about this fresh, clean little place! fantastic service, family owned, warm and friendly. the croissant and bagel were PERFECTLY toasted and flaky, we were told the pastry were made fresh for them and you could taste it! the Agua fresca was made fresh and not overly sweet. the coffee was just so delicious, cravable! he says the tortas are the best and we can't wait to go back.“

“An absolutely outstanding example of traditional hand crafted Italian Gelato made from the freshest, highest quality ingredients by a Hungarian Italian gentleman who is an artist of the highest calibre and a genius of exotic flavors that you simply must experience to understand. Words written by me simply cannot do justice to this man's creative abilities! I have yet to taste any of his creations that I didn't love! My only problem is trying to decide..but I just get a scoop of each! As should be expected, every great man is made greater by a great woman and his Hungarian wife is no less an artist as she hand crafts traditional Hungarian pastries with traditional methods that are absolutely heavenly! A beautiful and exceptionally clean little dessert shop that will put a smile on your face and a song in your heart every time! I hope that Temecula appreciates the fact that they don't have to travel halfway around the globe to experience some wonderful European treats that are right at their fingertips! 5 stars every time, always 10 out of 10!“

“Great food and great service“

“They are so nice! I loved going in and chatting with the owners. They made sure I knew what I was getting and offered me some samples to taste. Everything was so good it was hard to choose what to get! The place was very clean and inviting. The food is delicious and great portions. We ended up sharing everything so we could try it all. I would highly recommend checking out this place. Everything was fresh and made exactly how I asked for it. We will definitely be back!“

“Delicious food, good ambience and very clean.“

“Amazing food! Beautiful decor! Nice people!“

“I LOVE this place! The food is genuine and absolutely delicious. My family visit once a month or so. Everything on their menu is so good, and we’ve had a large variety of their menu items. The BEST Chinese food we’ve had in a long time. And they do offer a large variety of gluten free options, you just tell them that you need GF!! This is coming from someone who is allergic to Wheat, barley, oat!!“

“Consistent quality, everything is delicious! Best Shrimp and Grits ever, as well as the Crab cakes Benedict. The Murrieta location is outstanding!“

“What a wonderful evening! The place was busy, as we walked in the greeter immediately. Acknowledged us. Us, we did have reservations so they sat us quite quickly. Lily was our server and she was absolutely fabulous! The food came out in a timely manner. Our Waters /sodas never went empty and the food was absolutely delicious. Good job! P.F. Chang's“

“Yard house never fails to disappoint me! I like the Irvine, Riverside, Pasadena locations, the Temecula location is amazing as well! Unfortunately Temecula is packed with people during Christmas and NYs period, it's literally impossible to get a reservation during that time period.“

“Best all around Mexican restaurant dine in experience in Murrieta/Temecula. Killer Margaritas, specials, service, food and reasonable prices. Been many times and it’s our go to no doubt burrito/taco stop. Oh and it’s on the way Pechanga Highly recommended“

“We have finally found a place that serves authentic Greek cuisine! Growing up around a Greek community and being a part of a Greek family for a while, I’ve always been on the hunt for authentic food, and I’m kinda a snob about it lol. This checked all our boxes! νόστιμο φαγητό ευχαριστώ“

“The food was very delicious. I had the Shoyu on Fire extra spicy. if you like spicy, it should be your go to. I also got the chicken bun super spicy now that burnt my taste buds off but delicious.

Dietary restrictions: If If you are concerned about pork broth, they have options of having chicken or pork, which I thought was awesome being that I do not eat pork and everything was so flavorful“

“Our dog is in heaven - a dog menu?! Amazing! Thank you for treating us so well. Friendly service. Great house brews. And such a cool menu. But for real, you really do cater to dogs, too 🐶❤️“

Max respect to you and your staff this spot is the bommmm. oh and hubby love loved the fresh chicken 🍗. thank you“

“We will be back for sure! 😉“

“Dining in the restaurant proved to be more enjoyable than when we did takeout a couple years ago. We sat in a comfortable booth, water brought to the table lickety split. We ordered shrimp spring rolls and each of us the large Pho Ga (chicken pho). Spring rolls are big but peanut sauce was only so so. The pho ga was epic. Came with fish sauce which was a plus. Great flavor and enough for 2 meals. Service was excellent and the young waiter's were very polite. Easy upgrade to 5 stars and yes, we will be back.“

“My boyfriend and I had dinner for the first time here, and the food was awesome. I ordered the Tofu Seafood Soup with medium spiciness level, and it was packed with so much flavor. One thing I love about soups is their broth, and this soup had an amazing broth.

The our waiter was kind, attentive, and our food came out rather quickly. The interior is cozy and very welcoming.

I definitely recommend coming here and I would love to come back.“

“Everyone here was very friendly and welcoming. There is lots of seating inside and out. Place was clean and the beer was delicious. Will definitely be returning since they have a Hefeweizen and they are hard to find. They are dog friendly if you have a dog and want to come with them.“

“One of my go-to spots for sushi in Temecula!
Sushi Boat at the Promenade Mall never disappoints. The fish is always fresh, the portions are generous, and the service is quick and friendly. I love sitting by the boat and picking out what looks good in the moment – it’s such a fun and unique experience.

Some favorites: the spicy tuna, salmon nigiri, and tempura rolls are always solid. And their miso soup hits the spot every time. Prices are reasonable for the quality you get, and it’s a great place to grab lunch or dinner while shopping or before catching a movie.

Highly recommend if you’re in the area and craving sushi! 🍣👌“

“A Hidden Gem in Temecula
If you're looking for a breakfast spot that hits all the right notes; flavor, hospitality, and charm; Mo’s Egg House is it. I ordered the steak and eggs, and let me tell you: mouthwatering doesn’t even begin to describe it. The steak was perfectly cooked, the eggs just the way I like them, and the whole plate felt like a hug from the kitchen.
Before your meal even arrives, they surprise you with a homemade sweet cake that’s so good, it could be dessert all on its own. It’s a small touch, but it sets the tone for the kind of care and warmth this place puts into everything.
Their menu is stacked with delicious options, and honestly, you can’t go wrong. Whether you're craving a hearty breakfast, a cozy brunch, or a satisfying lunch, Mo’s delivers every time.
And here’s the best part: you don’t have to trek into Old Town Temecula to find a great meal. Mo’s Egg House is proof that incredible food and friendly vibes are just around the corner. Whether you're a local or just passing through, I highly recommend stopping by. You won’t be disappointed.“

“good service, great food, cozy atmosphere. good prices.“

“It's already our favorite pizza's restaurant! A girl who attend us offer us vegan chesse!! Thank you so much, excellent service and excellent food 😍🍕🌱!!“

“I’m just going to be blunt! This food is a continuous orgasm in your mouth. Every bite was shudderingly delicious. Can’t be compared to anything I’ve ever had. I found a real gem this trip. We come out every year for my husband’s birthday and visit many different places he visited as a young man. I look for places to add. I have found it! The service is full of energy and love for their food. Completely passionate and intoxicating. (Listen to their suggestions!!!) I can’t thank them enough for this food!! Jovany and the “big guy” are the best!!!!!!“

“We love Annie’s and eat there often. My 6 year old son just said his grandma is the best cook he knows… then he quickly changed it to “Well, second best, compared to Annie’s. Their gluten free pancakes are like biting into heaven” We appreciate all the gluten free options and love the atmosphere.“

“Huge fan of the Turkey Sandwich!“

“Good place and staff 👍 I’m recommend this place“

“Prepare yourself for an experience that transcends the ordinary. From the moment I stepped inside, I was utterly captivated by the flawless harmony of every element in this remarkable establishment. It was as if I had been transported into another world—a world where every detail has been meticulously crafted to create a symphony for the senses.

The sushi… where do I even begin? It was nothing short of an astonishing masterpiece. Every bite was a delicate balance of textures, an explosion of flavors so sublime that it left me speechless. The freshness, the precision, the artistry—each piece felt like it was prepared with the utmost reverence for the ingredients, turning a simple meal into an unforgettable experience.

The staff, too, are not just kind—they exude warmth and professionalism in every gesture. Attentive without being intrusive, they make you feel as if you’re the most important person in the room. Their dedication to service is a testament to the care this restaurant pours into every aspect of its guest experience.

And the ambiance? It’s more than decor—it’s an atmosphere that wraps around you, inviting you to stay just a little longer, to savor every moment. The thoughtfulness behind the design, the soft lighting, the elegant yet inviting furnishings—it all blends together into something truly special. The vibe is nothing less than a reflection of the restaurant’s soul: stylish, refined, and utterly magnetic.

To say the food is of high quality and flavorful would be an understatement. It’s an experience that goes beyond taste—it’s a journey that awakens your palate, challenges your expectations, and leaves you with an overwhelming sense of gratitude for having discovered such a hidden gem.“

“Yesterday, mom took me here for a bite to eat. My first time here. I really enjoyed it.

Walked in and right away noticed the place was clean and well maintained. Thank you.

Service was great! Two behind the counter, the young man was helping my mom with her order and the girl helped me. The young man was patient and polite. The girl who helped me was great too! Nice smile and polite, didn't feel like we were being an inconvenience. Thanks guys!

Food, overall good with one little complaint. First far better than Subway or Jimmy John's and this was a relief.

I ordered the Peppered Club and swapped the Swiss cheese out for Smoked Cheddar on a white roll toasted. She made it perfectly.

I felt the slice of turkey and ham was a bit too transparent, it was lost in the over size roll and toppings, while good, just poor value for what you get. This is why 3 stars for food.

Thanks to the employees for great service.“

“I LOVE this winery. I especially love photographing weddings here! #lomonico approved🤌🏼 @lomonicophotography“
