50 Best Vegan Restaurants in Tustin

“It is the best açaí in OC.😉💪🏿💪🏾💪🏻“

“🌱 A Hidden Gem for Vegan Delights

Stopped by FreeSoulCaffe for lunch today, and it instantly earned a spot on my list of favorite vegan restaurants. We tried the Panini Poulet (vegan chickin) and the Atlantic Sandwich (vegan tuna)—both were bursting with flavor and freshness, generously portioned, and deeply satisfying. Served on delicious sourdough bread, the sandwiches had just the right texture and crunch to complement the fillings. Each came with a fresh side salad brushed with just the right amount of white wine vinaigrette, adding a bright, tangy finish that elevated the meal beyond the ordinary.

The restaurant itself was spotless, and the staff were warm and attentive throughout our visit. We chose to sit outside in the peaceful courtyard, which added a lovely touch to the experience. It was clear we weren’t the only ones enjoying it—plenty of other diners were happily soaking in the atmosphere.

Whether you're vegan or just curious, I highly recommend giving FreeSoulCaffe a try. Even non-vegans are likely to walk away impressed.“

“Fantastic authentic food and service. Can't wait to go back.“

“Oliboli isn’t your typical walk-in, grab-a-donut, and head-out kind of shop. Instead of picking something out of a case, every donut is made fresh to order in the kitchen and handed to you warm within 3–5 minutes. Whatever topping or glaze you choose melts right into the donut and adds to the flavor instead of overpowering it. The donuts come out warm, light, and almost brioche-like, with just enough crispy edge to make each bite feel special. Plan on paying around $5-6 dollars per donut.

I ordered the Maple and the Autumn Sprinkle, and both were great for different reasons:

• Maple Glazed: Warm, soft, and perfectly glazed. The outside has a gentle crisp from the fryer, and the maple flavor isn’t overly sweet — super balanced. It reminds me of a really good old-fashioned but with more lift and a cleaner finish.
• Autumn Sprinkle: Fun, seasonal, and surprisingly flavorful. The glaze has a hint of vanilla, and the sprinkles add great texture without being overly crunchy or artificial. If you’re in a fall mood, this one nails it.

Overall, Oliboli is one of the few donut shops where you can tell every donut is made with intention. If you appreciate quality over quantity, this place is a must-visit in OC.“

“The food was delicious and our server Ashton was incredible. We will be back soon❣️“

“Excellent food and fast service!“

“This location is the best! The staff is very nice and attentive. My husband and I live in walking distance so we're here once a week. The food is much better here than the location on Alton. The only thing I'd change about this location is the smell of rancid standing water / funky garbage near the bathrooms.“

“My favorite pizzas at Pizza Shack are their specialty pizzas, specifically the House Special pizza and the BBQ Chicken pizza. Another great thing about the specialty pizzas is that they've already been discounted, so no coupon is needed. You're welcome!“

“The food was so great! The waiter was so attentive. We had lots left over. And desert to go.“

“Super cute store vibe, and they have later hours in case you want a treat after breakfast or lunch. Can try a sample if you aren't sure which flavor base to get, which I appreciated since it was my first time trying some of the flavors. Staff was informative and friendly and most importantly quick with my order!“

“We had sesame chicken and a bento box with orange chicken, cucumbers, and rice. Myself and our two growing teen boys shared those two dishes and it was plenty of food. Both chicken entrees had good bold flavor, nice quality chicken, and crispy outside. Rice was good flavor and just the right sticky-ness. Cucumbers are sooooo good.“

“First timer drove all the way from Downey worth the drive. I had the blue cheese bacon burger with garlic fries and of course a Dr. Pepper. Very friendly staff they all help out my daughter had the mushroom burger with onion rings and my son had the bacon cheese burger with tots. A must try the only other thing that caught my eye was the hot wings the table next to us ordered Definitely next time“

“This savory food fills the tummy with comfort and feeds the soul with pleasure clare“

“Had a volleyball tournament nearby so we’re stopped in. The Diablo Burger was amazing, great beers on tap and served in nice big schooners, and the truffle fries were awesome and shareable size. The family all left happy. I will go back.“

“Ordered this for delivery and it was some of the most delicious cashew chicken I’ve ever had! The only down side is it didn’t let me select fried rice as my side when ordering through Uber Eats.. we tried orange chicken, potstickers etc. all of it was just so perfect. We WILL be coming back again!“

“Yelp waitlist doesn’t work on the app only in person when you arrive.
The approx wait time was still 30-45min+ depending on the size of your party.

If you’re open to ordering “to-go” would recommend that for sure! Love their product food pictures online to get a better understanding of what you’re going to eat.

“The chef puts out unique and delicious pizzas, pastas, daily specials and desserts. Very unique location too!“

“Zov’s is a very nice place, with a friendly atmosphere and staff, and great food!!“

“Great food and place to sneek a beer on your lunch hour 😉“

“Always great food and service. Come here several times a month and always mouth watering delicious.“

“Awesome burger and fries! 🍔 🍟“

“we are from Alaska so we maybe fresh fish snobs... but this was absolutely delish, fast, and priced great. highly recommend so glad we stumbled upon ot!“

“My favorite sushi spot! Every time I've been in, I've had a great time, from great caring servers, to high quality fish, to delicately built plates. Hard to go wrong here. The fish can be a little pricey at times (since they're all market rate), but they do offer high quality options like chu toro, king salmon, and bluefin tuna. Good portion sizes too, whether rolls, sashimi, or other plates. Definitely check this spot out if you haven't already, you won't be disappointed.“

“Excellent Indian food“

“great food good price will return again“

“Went to the food hall for another restaurant, but it was closed. Staff at Fonda Moderna waved us over and wow am I glad they did. Very friendly and helped us decide what to get. Tacos were amazing. First time I have ever had a lobster taco, fantastic. The Birria was also excellent. Great food and great service, will absolutely go there again.“

“We had a great lunch, the hamburgers are delicious 🤤“

“Best food shopping for fresh Sausage/Meats etc.. Sandwiches are simply TASTY, like being in Italy... Friendly helpful staff“

“Italian Express has great food and even better service. It's a great local family owned Italian restaurant. All of the typical foods are awesome - pizzas, pastas, etc - but also try their spicy wings and their garlic knots!!“

“I had the Rammer, which was a lovely merger between a pastrami sandwich & cheeseburger (rammed together)...& boy, was it very yummylicious & absolutely Peter-rific (Mmm, tender pastrami on top of a juicy beef patty)! This place is not your typical run of the mill burger joint & has a unique variety of selections for everyone's palette. My only slight knock is that for the price of each burger, it should also include a small side of french fries (otherwise I would have given it 5 stars). Definitely worth a try!“

“delicious food & great service 😋 💁‍♀️“

“Great food! great appetizers!“

“Just had my daughter's birthday here and it was amazing!“

“We will be back. Good food love it. 😍“

“Outstanding freshness of their fish and great service 😀“

“Taco Chico is BOMB the food was soooo delicious & the prices are great for the portions and the horchata was perfect! I strongly recommend this place and order the chicken taquitos plate when u go visit 😋😋 and I'll be back soon 😁“

“Amazing, super delicious Ramen - reinvented in the U.S. so the soup is totally drinkable. If you've ever eaten Ramen in Japan, you know what I'm talking about. The dining area in-store is modern and clean, but sometimes the long waiting line can be a turn-off, at least to me.“

“Delicious and very nice set of menu“

“The beef/chicken veggie bowl is so good and perfect portion. They make their own teriyaki sauce; it's delicious! It's often crowded during lunch, but service is so fast. Their food is way better compared to Flame Broiler and the likes.“

“Thank you so much to the gentleman who provided me with the most amazing customer service tonight. He brought my food out to the car for me so I didn’t have to take all three of my kids in. He didn’t have to but he was happy to do it. So thank you so much. Also the food is always amazing have been going here for a long time now ✨“

“The bartender Jaqueline was phenomenal! Sunday football, the place was packed and she single handedly served the entire place both behind the bar, in the dining room with the best food service and was the quickest most efficient lone server on the planet. She absolutely blew me away!!!! Thank you Jacqueline, we had a blast and great games with plenty of TV screens everywhere too!“

“Great fish tacos at a reasonable price. Taco Tuesdays are even better. It does get crowded during lunch hour and after work too. Cashiers all seem to be friendly and courteous. Ive been here lots of times and will continue to patronize this little shack. Oh, parking is hard to find most of the time.“

“One of the best AYCE sushi spots in OC! The fish is always fresh, rolls are flavorful, and the portions are generous. Favorites are the garlic edamame, baked mussels, and their specialty rolls.

Service is quick and friendly, and for the price, the AYCE deal is hard to beat. Always leave full and happy—definitely my go-to sushi spot in Tustin!“

“The food was delicious and the service was great! The restaurant is beautiful. Highly recommend!“

“Villy Heaven truly lives up to its name — a little piece of heaven for food lovers! From the moment we walked in, the warm ambiance and welcoming staff set the tone for a fantastic dining experience.“

“I had the Texas Hot Polish Sausage. The bread was soft, there was a lot of cheese, and it was HOT. Lots of Jalapeno. The sausage and cheese was okay. The apple also had great bread, but the filling was just canned pie filling, nothing special. Good coffee.“

“The young man who took my order was friendly and helpful. I asked for sandwich suggestions since it was my first time there, and he definitely led me in the right direction.

The sandwich was loaded with all the good stuff, but WAY too much lettuce - there was no way to take a bite of it, and since I am not a snake and able to unhinge my jaw, I took most of it out. I did appreciate the generous helping of avocado and all the ingredients were fresh.

Lastly, for what I got, the price was very good. I'm a fan and I'll be back!“

“very clean, staff is very nice, 100% recommend ! owner is also extremely kind and friendly :)“
