50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Valley Village

“Is this good Falafel or what? I've been here twice but it only keeps getting better and better. We got a Falafel baguette, with french fries and a side of chicken schnitzel. I asked for a jalapeño to add a little heat to my food and boy did he delivered . The owner is very friendly and tends to his costumers with a smile. Very kind soul. Cannot recommend this place enough. Also, I didn't take a pic, but he's got a table with a Washing Cup setting for Al Netilas Yadayim. So props for that!“

“It wasn't too localized so I enjoyed it! The naan wasn't that tasty, but the curry and samosas were delicious. The service is just like an American restaurant. They say it's Michelin-starred, but I'm not sure if it's amazing, but I think you can think of it as something you wouldn't mind eating as your last meal in LA. I recommend it if you want to eat delicious curry that is not too localized.“

“This place is very close to achieving what it's setting out to do: provide an elegant vegetarian dining experience. I think that might be hard to pull off in a strip mall however. The food and the art are fantastic but the interior design was poorly executed and comes off looking a little cheap. I went for my birthday but for the price this might have been a one time experience. Updated from previous review on 2024-04-06“

“Great food and really nice looking restaurant. I was a few minutes later than expected picking up my food and the server mentioned they were just about to call. Very friendly and courteous service.All of the food was great, but the Bang Bang Broccoli and the It’s a Hit (tempura jalapeño) were especially special (intentionally saying special here twice).Will definitely be back again and happy to be living so close by!“

“I have to write this up while the food is fresh on my mind. Had an incredible meal here last night complete with cauliflower hot wings, two incredible vegan rolls of sushi (I'm not vegan and literally couldn't tell) and these jalapeno Boyz that were absolutely delicious! In short, I was absolutely blown away by the food, the service, and + bro, they have SNAPPLE. No photos because we devoured everything, no crumbs left behind.“

“I am not exaggerating when I say that lunch at Mother Tongue surpassed our wildest expectations. Truly, if I could gave this place 10 stars, I would! Everything from the very friendly, efficient service to the wonderful atmosphere (just loved their decor, color scheme and relaxing background music) to the excellent food was outstanding! They made our wedding anniversary lunch really special! Recommend the delicious black kale salad and wild salmon bowl. Their yuzu pana cotta and soft serve sundae desserts are to die for!! Will definitely be back and highly recommend!“

“Great vegan restaurant in Melrose. The food has plenty of flavor and tastes fresh. Prices during happy hour are very affordable, and it’s a great for big groups to share bites and drinks. Atmosphere is nice, especially outdoors on the patio. The highlight of the evening for me was the olive oil brownie — a must try!“

“Wow! This is such an amazing and unique concept! I love the frankies selection from the menu. I tried Chicken Tikka Masala Frankie and Crispy Frisch Frankie and I’m satisfied! The frankies are made from naan which was freshly baked and the fish and chicken were nicely cooked and overall it was amazing! Reasonable pricing for the size of the food. Amazing service from the business and highly recommended to try if your looking for something new!“

“We came here for Easter Sunday brunch yesterday. It’s a cute restaurant with friendly staff.However, I expected the food to taste better…I ordered their classic breakfast pizza suggested by the server. First of all, it looked great. I’m not a fan of the fake bacon because it tastes like paper. After the first couple of bites, I realized the pizza was barely edible because of the amount of big rosemary leaves added in the pizza dough. I had to hand picked them out of the pizza to avoid tasting the ‘soapy’ rosemary flavor… and I love rosemary in general. Just not THIS MUCH. I asked my friends to also taste my pizza and they all told me I should send it back.Luckily, our server took it back right away and gave me the option to change to a different pizza.The second pizza I ordered was margarita pizza. It was pretty blend. But at least edible.I do need to say their menu is probably a hit or miss. My friends ordered the breakfast burritos that they enjoyed a lot. Which is why I’m leaving it 4 stars.Note: very limited street parking and $20 valet parking.Parking: Very limited street parking and $20 valet parking.“

“Obsessed! Among a sea of fancy, loud pizza places in LA, Heirloom stands on their own merit. I drive quite a bit just to visit this spot. The pizza is fresh, balanced, and delicious, the place is comfy, and the owners are kind. My ONLY complaint is that they’re not open more often (I always crave them on Friday).“

“I'm half Thai but not vegan, and I brought my vegan friend here. The food was pretty good in our opinion! We got Thai tea (good, considering it's vegan), egg rolls (just OK for me but I generally don't like restaurant egg rolls), and drunken noodles (pretty good). The dining room is tiny but nice and bright on a sunny day. Our waitress was friendly and patient while we looked over the menu. The prices weren't bad either, so definitely try it out if you like Thai food and are in the area looking for veg options!Vegetarian options: Everything is veganDietary restrictions: Everything is veganParking: There is a small lot in the back. I think part of Bennett has free 2 hr parking. About a block west on Cahuenga, there are metered spots (30 min, 1 hr, 2hr)“

“Socalo is consistently great. Everyone I introduce it to ends up returning on their own. Everything is great here, the food especially of course (the menu is innovative with kind of a classic base and the ingredients are very high end). Somehow though, they manage to keep the prices reasonable. The staff is really nice, the design and atmosphere are beautiful both during the day and the evening. I love that it's an all day restaurant so you can even grab a meal or a snack during in-between hours. This place is kind of a sleeper favorite and because it seems to be under the radar a bit, getting a reservation is always easy. I truly love this place.“

“Every time we eat there, we are impressed by the overall quality of the food and service. Chef Arango delivers high quality food in every dish. Each item is extremely fresh and well prepared. You can also tell that the family really appreciates every single customer. I can't say enough positive things about them. I am honestly thankful to have a such a solid Indian food option right in the neighborhood.“

“Wow. I liked Indimex before they changed management, now I love it! I wrote a review 7 years ago with a follow up 6 years ago pre covid. Remember when? During Covid and even more recently, I would order and have it delivered. But tonight I saw they were open and there was parking space right in front so I went in person. Wonderfully warm new owner, quaint dining room albeit small but remodeled and the new owner has plans for more. - feels more authentically Indian with a Mexican twist. Indian movie posters and music, colorful walls and tables. Their Chicken Tikka Masala sauce is the real deal as is the raita. Delicious. The chicken tikka masala quesadillas are reasonable and filling. I'm so glad they survived Covid and with this new management I'm excited to see what comes next. Have an adventure as I said in my original posting 7 years ago. Tired of the same old same old? Support local businesses. And enjoy!“

“Totally amazed by the great selection and quality of the food at lunch buffet. It was really good. They had chicken biryani, goat curry, chicken tikka massala, tandoori, chicken and so many other dishes. They also Chai tea and a good selection of sweet desserts. A gem of a spot and I'm glad I chanced upon it. This will be my go to for Indian buffet, authentic. Service was top notch too!!​“

“love trying vegan food and this place was one of the best. the service is really quick and workers are attentive. it's small but never too crowded from what I'm seeing, nice and cozy, warm lighting and good conversational chatter. will definitely come back again to try new things.“

“Bulan is by FAR My All Time Favorite Place to EAT when I’m in LA??️? The food is Outstanding and Always on Par! I Highly recommend the Inferno Chicken, Yellow Curry w/chicken, and if you L?VE Peanut Sauce Definitely TRY “Under the Specials Dishes” Sizzling Pra Ram Also love the Hot Wings as an Appetizer! We Love You Bulan!We Will Always Be BACK & Always Recommend You! ??Vegetarian options: The Absolute Best Vegan THAI Food!!!“

“So good! I tried a number of menu items and loved each. The shrimp soup was perfectly spicy and packed with wonderful flavors, the appetizers (hot wings and chicken skewers) were outstanding and my entree - pad see ew with beef was just perfect. The service was ideal - helpful fast and informative. I'll definitely be back very often!“

“Unique menu with lots of variety, wonderful staff, and sweet atmosphere. You find a table and the order at the counter to have dishes brought to you. The staff is very accommodating for vegetarian/vegan and gluten-free preferences. Some items are marked as such and you can ask for modifications of most dishes when you order. Loved all the drink options, with the choice of adding boba and swapping for non-dairy milk too. I found free street parking on Lucerne. Looking forward to returning.Vegetarian options: Very accommodating for vegetarian/vegan and gluten-free preferences.

“Simply Delish, creative & extremely yummy food. As a 7 month vegan newly vegan, I’m looking at o experiment with taste texture & creative & healthy ways to nourish my body. Had the pleasure to share this experience with my friend from college whom I had not seen in over 20 years. When I return to LA, I will definitely repeat the visit!!!“

“I've been coming here for years, I can't believe I haven't written a review! I love their food. My favorite item to order is their mung bean pad thai, although I wish there was an option to get it with soy chicken or beef and not just tofu skewers. The tofu cubes are huge so the flavor doesn't really penetrate them. I like this dish because the noodles and veggies are flavorful. My family also enjoys cashew nut lover dish and the buddha rolls. Those are so filling, I can just get those and be happy. If you like thai tea, you must try it here. So good. One star off because parking is difficult, especially on weekends, and it's a little pricy for me. The good thing is that inflation has led to all restaurants raising their prices in the last couple of years, so I am more used to it and not as bothered as I used to be . Note: the seats are incredibly uncomfortable so if you dine in and have back issues like me, bring a cushion.“

“Had the fundido and it was amazing. Loved the broccoli on top and the blue corn chips were perfectly salted. Taquitos were delicious. The chickpeas were so creamy and the flavor was spectacular Banana cream pie was so good. Crunchy and smooth at the same time.“

“Such an amazing gem. Wanted to eat after a night out but finding vegan and healthy food was tough. This was worth the drive! The food was incredible, so flavorful, all organic and vegan. So much selection. We are the grain pancakes with the tofu scramble, sausage and has brown and the waffle deluxe. Generous portions and well seasoned as well as they served it with date syrup.The hot chocolate with oat milk was the best I've had. The cinnamon was so fresh and not too sweet.The vibe is such a trip because it's like entering a portal with snoop dog on a wall and then Mayan woodwork art.Great service too!100% recommend and open til 12a on a friday“

“Best Indian food I've ever had. Everytime I've ordered elsewhere since ordering from here I've been disappointed. My GO TO Indian spot & it will never be rivaled! I always get the veggie coconut curry, basmati rice, veggie samosas, raita, mint sauce & mango chutney, and the cheese naan. And a mango lassi & gulab for dessert of course. Consistent and delicious. Love yall!“

“Very much enjoyed the food and experience here. Small quaint place with charm and authenticity. I had the vegan pad Thai which was well prepared, and the tofu and vegan chicken were tasty and nicely incorporated. Would love to try the curries next time.“

“The ambiance of this establishment is truly unique in the Los Angeles area. The tropical atmosphere is aesthetically pleasing and the cocktails are expertly crafted. Regrettably, the menu options are rather limited as several items are no longer offered so feels more like bar food than a full dinner menu. Nevertheless, the exceptional service provided by the staff is commendable. I highly recommend this venue for pre-dinner drinks with colleagues or for a casual evening out.“

“La La Lasagna is to die for and if I was dying, I would want this as my last meal. I'm not being hyperbolic when I say this is my favorite food to eat *ever* and I have a child-like giddiness when I have the chance to stop by this truck.Chef Michelangelo is the nicest man on the planet and I'm happy to give him all my money. Do yourself a big favor and RUN to get some.“

“I asked Vegan AF to cater an event for about 50-60 diverse people and Chanel killed it. Our guests said they would be fully converted to veganism if it meant eating her hand-fried crispy wraps stuffed with a flavorable combination of vegetables and faux meats. This is really important to my family who tease me for being vegetarian.She showed up early so we had time to organize things in the party room to best serve her needs and the flow of the event. The pink containers and branding made sure that everyone who loved her food would be able to find her. There were a lot of designers, so branding was important.Most importantly, Vegan AF complimented the community festival vibe of the night. I look forward to eating Vegan AF again and again as many of the guests that night. Thank you, Chanel.“

“My new favorite vegan restaurant! The garlic chicken burger had so much flavor, I loved the bean sprouts and pickles that complimented it. The spring rolls were very fresh and juicy with a delicious peanut sauce. My favorite item on the menu were the hot drum sticks! Wow!! I've never had vegan chicken be THIS GOOD. So tender with a great spicy kick. The sauce was incredible. The owner and staff are so attentive and kind. There's lots of metered parking around the area and it's easy to find. The interior is gorgeous. Obsessed with the flower wall! I love it when small businesses with great hearts behind the names flourish. I'll definitely be coming here again!!“

“Drumsticks dinner was very tasty , good portion. Pepper steak my friend had was disgusting due to the sweet chilli sauce and hers was with grilled potatoes which weren’t properly grilled and she literally had like 5 slices:/ she left the restaurant hungry. Waiter didnt even commented on her leaving this steak untouched… plus I was charged $4 for thai tea(which is far too sweet , didnt like it) and it was happy hour $3“

“True food has yet to ever disappoint. Tried in other states and locations each time it’s phenomenal. The crazy food combo/creations they come up with always seem to work excellent together. It’s so hard to keep trying more stuff because whatever you get is so good you just keep wanting that. Can’t wait to be back, staff are always very nice and the atmosphere is so relaxing, open, inviting, laid back. I also love when it’s not extremely busy they don’t pack everyone next to each other, they space you out!“

“I could eat here every day. Part of decision on me buying a house was that it had to be within walking distance to a Backyard Bowls locations. And I kept that condition. It’s that good.The staff is always welcoming and friendly. They do get busy but they’re quite efficient.I generally get green bowl w almond butter on top or the island bowl if I’m in mood for something sweet. Perfect after a morning session of beach volleyballAvo egg toast is also brilliant. Perfect cooking of the egg and toasting every time. Wish they’d bring back the pb&j oat meal bowl“

“Been here several times now and felt compelled to leave a rating - Pretty cheap. Their menu has a large selection to choose from. The chicken bowl, my go-to, will run you ~$11 (at the time of this review) and is filled generously to the brim. The two workers I've interacted with were also very accomodating. Food is delicious relative to its price. I would 100% recommend this spot to anyone searching for an affordable, quick lunch.“

“I love how awesome the staff are here it's like speaking to an old friend. Please come in and give them a try! I already tried their sandwiches, which is really wholesome and hearty. Their pizzas are thin crust, but very delicious. I've had the young and the go green!“

“Out of all the Thai restaurants I've tried in the Los Feliz area, this one stands out with its absolutely incredible dishes, hands down. I'm particularly obsessed with their green curry--I keep ordering it on repeat! Every item on their menu boasts amazing quality, and their delivery and pickup service is both prompt and efficient. Not to mention, they're incredibly generous with their portions. Lately, whenever I crave Thai food, I find myself ordering exclusively from this place. I highly recommend it! :)“

“obsessed! what a cute spot right on Sunset Blvd. it's hard to find restaurants w/ good vegan options & all the dishes here were phenomenal. particularly enjoyed the broccolini, mushroom & potato, green goddess salad, mushroom risotto!! the hummus was fire too. service was great , it's a total vibe inside. we came on a sunday night & it was jampacked. definitely coming back!“

“I really Love the lamb chops, dolmas and rice meatball soup. I didn’t take pictures, I was so busy eating my food. My kids loved the chicken kebab. Service is great. As a Latina I feel a little shy when I’m trying different food but they are very nice people and food is delicious.“

“The foods are amazing!! If anybody is looking for authentic Thai food I highly recommend!! They have so many kind of healthy rice to choose and many options of meats and vegetarian choices. The owner and staffs are nice friendly and service mind. Love this place. Definitely visit again and again!!“

“Oh my God, you guys! It's like Aziz Ansari once said, 'Treat yo' self!' And that's exactly what I do at 818 - the late-night savior of my hunger pangs! Picture this: it's 10 PM in Glendale, and everything else is snoozing, but not 818, oh no! They're like the Batman of restaurants, always there when you need them. Their chicken? It's like a high-five in your mouth! Crispy, juicy, and totally kosher – it's like they're frying up happiness. And the staff? Superheroes in aprons, I tell you! They guide you through the menu like a tasty treasure map, helping you discover culinary gold. Hungry for a pressed chicken sandwich with a twist? They've got you covered. Craving their signature chicken sandwich with that crunchy coleslaw and tangy pickles? Boom, your taste buds are in for a party! This place isn't just a restaurant, it's my culinary soulmate. Always open, always awesome. So, go on, treat yo' self and check them out!“

“One of the best vegan brunch/ bakery spots. EVERYTHING I've had here was delicious! The place is small but decent size outdoor seating area. Avocado toast, truffle melt and cauliflower lavash tacos were so yum!!!! Their cakes are beautiful and delish too, gotta order in advance! Service is always excellent! Limited parking, but can park on the meters.“

“Veggie Grill is my family‘s favorite restaurant and has been for at least 10 years. Unfortunately, all of the locations near us have closed, so tonight we were craving Veggie Grill so decided to drive to the Burbank location for dinner. I am so happy we made that decision because not only was it phenomenal, the gentleman that helped us named Jesus was so helpful and so kind and so nice that we will definitely drive there over and over again just because everything about this experience was wonderful. Thank you so much to Jesus for helping us, and thank you for having such amazing food. We are so sad that all of the locations near us have closed, but we are happy to know that in 30 minutes we can be at the Burbank location to get our favorite food! Thank you again!“

“Put simply, my favorite restaurant of all time is Leonore's. I love it, and I can't say enough good things about this place. My favorite meal there is their soy chicken enchilada dinner, and I add a beet salad and a flaxseed tea. And their waitress Amy is terrific.“

“Cafe gratitude is a great place to meet up, especially considering the busy area it’s in. It can be a bit pricey, but most lattes in this city are expensive.They are a vegan only restaurant, which means no normal milk. I didn’t mind too much, but I do prefer normal milk. The pastries were nice, and fairly priced. The rest of the food is pretty pricey.Dietary restrictions: Only vegan milks, no animal milks“

“I am a meat first guy, kinda anti-vegan, and a burger connoisseur. This place may have had one of the best burgers I've had in my 40+ years on Earth. Staff is super nice too. Wouls highly recommend if you're in town.✌? From Chicago.“

“Went to grab dinner here before a Laker game and absolutely loved it. We ordered the Mekhani chicken, basmati rice, garlic naan, and vegetable samosas and it was all delicious. We also had a mango lassi and masala tea, which were fantastic. The service was great, super kind man who chatted with us a bit. He kindly gave us some free dessert at the end, which was also delicious (I forgot what it was called but it was shredded carrot in a sweet milk with nuts. So good!). It is cash/Venmo only, so be prepared with either.“

“I just tried the passion salad , the awake, and vibrant salad. I would definitely recommend this place. And that sneaky guy put some banana pudding in my bag, which I did not order, but OMG I'm glad he did. I will be ordering that banana pudding from here on out. It was amazing!“

“I was searching for a decent Indian restaurant just to have Pav Bhaji without keeping high hopes, since I’ve been here for a couple of weeks now and had no expectations regarding the quality of Indian food from local restaurants. However, let me tell you, when I reached there, I saw an option for an Indian Thali with 2 curries priced at just $14. Since a lot of Indian people were already having their dinner, I thought to give it a try, and I almost felt like I was having homemade food after such a long period. Everything was simple yet finger-licking tasty. Now it’s my favorite place, and I plan to order only from here whenever I’m in town.Value for money and amazing taste, do give it a try.“

“Sugar Taco just opened up a location in Long Beach and I must say I definitely will be back! Decent portions, good quality, tasty, knowledgeable and friendly staff, eco conscious and nice environment. I give them 4 stars. I'd give the 5 stars but it is a bit pricey in my opinion. $50 for 2 large drinks, 1 burrito, a half order of nachos and a donut.“

“I am absolutely thrilled to share my experience with Guru Meals, a phenomenal vegan meal delivery service that has truly transformed my dining experience. As a resident of Orange County, I've had my fair share of meal delivery services, including Hello Fresh and Cook Unity, but none have come close to the exceptional quality, taste, and service provided by this local small business.The first thing that stands out about Guru Meals is their incredible menu. It's hard to believe they do vegan - but they do, and they do it exceptionally well! The food is not just good, it's mind-blowingly delicious. The flavors are rich, the ingredients are fresh, and the variety is impressive. It's clear that the chef is not just skilled, but also passionate about creating meals that are both healthy and delectable.The team at Guru Meals is simply amazing. Josh and Melissa, I can't thank you enough for your hard work and dedication. Your hustle is evident in every meal that arrives at my doorstep. When I needed to switch out my order just two days before delivery, you accommodated my request without hesitation. Your commitment to customer satisfaction is truly commendable.But what really sets Guru Meals apart is their extraordinary service. I was in Palm Springs for Coachella, and they delivered my food right there! It's not every day that you find a company willing to go that extra mile (quite literally!) to ensure their customers are well-fed and happy.In conclusion, if you're in Orange County or Los Angeles and are looking for a vegan meal delivery service, look no further than Guru Meals. Their food is second to none, their team is fantastic, and their service is unparalleled. I love them to pieces and can't recommend them enough!“

“Always love coming to Doomies when I am in LA. This is is one of my top fast food style eateries as a vegan. Everything I have had from here has just been so delicious and a treat to eat. I don't think I've had their desserts yet, but they are so massive I may not end my quick trip here without trying a slice.I had the pulled pork for the first time, and I was so glad to see 'not jackfruit', I had to try. Delicious!!Wife had the burger and she loved it as well. Cheese fries and a drink from the freestyle machine sets it all off!“
