50 Best Vegetarian Restaurants near Woodside

“Awesome restaurant with amazing ambiance, well orchestrated and friendly service, and excellent seasonal foods using top quality ingredients. Everything is beautiful and delicious. One of our favorite restaurants and a great celebration spot.“

“Great food and even better service! The Buck Breakfast had some much flavor and there are options to substitute your eggs and sausage for vegan alternatives. The Huevos Rancheros was a hearty made to order meal. You can definitely taste fresh quality ingredients. Our server was very attentive and friendly.“

“People don’t just come here for the food — they come for the culture. The parking lot alone is a show. You’ll see some seriously fancy cars and motorbikes lined up like an unofficial exhibition. Somehow this rustic old farmhouse has become a gathering spot for car lovers, and it adds to the whole experience.

The space itself is full of old-world charm — huge dining areas spread around the wooden house and spacious outdoor area in multiple “tents”. I personally love that worn, wooden, cozy vibe.

Food-wise, it’s classic American comfort done right. Everything tastes fresh and authentically made with care. My tuna melt was toasted perfectly golden brown on the outside and generously filled inside — simple but amazing. Bonus: it’s dog-friendly, so our dog babies can join too.

Definitely a place you go for the full experience.“

“Beautiful wedding of my daughter in a most lovely picturesque winery with exquisite food & wine that endlessly flowed!“

“Good food (we had the green papaya salad and the pad kee mao, both excellent). Had we known that the pad kee mao didn't come with tofu we would have asked for it, so next time we will, but that's nitpicking. Very fast service, noticeably so. Location great for those in San Mateo or Foster City (and this restaurant is much better in my mind than Sweet Basil, I'm sorry). The pad kee mao dish was huge and we had to take home half of each plate (we got two, next time one will be enough, but we took it home and plan to enjoy later)“

“Great food and pet friendly.“

“Great! I love this place. So good.“

“Decided to give them another try after a long while. The traditional food is really good as that’s where they shine. I would still clear of the burgers, nothing wrong with it, but I would go to a burger place for a burger and stick to Zareen’s for traditional food. The charga is incredible!!“

“10/10 no notes, jk. It can feel small and cramped for a bit once you enter, but once u settle in, it’s comforting and an enjoyable place to dine.

Got the pad see ew, yellow curry, and crispy pork fried rice. Pad see ew 10/10 no notes, yellow curry an 8, the fried rice is a 9.5.

100/10 would come again. Reasonably priced, monies worth and bellies full. 🤭😋😋“

“Good food and great customer service. Do recommend“

“First time here, fairly busy. Lots of free parking. There were a few employees, but they aren't greeting anyone who walked in. Not sure if they take orders in person, but there are kiosks to order your food & they are easy to use for ordering. The food is good, made to order. We had to clean our own table, I didn't see any employees cleaning tables, they should work on that because it was busy. This place is open late night, I think 3AM some nights. You can eat inside or outside, there's heaters outside. And a bathroom for customers.“

“Amazing food and excellent service - highly recommend“

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

“I came here for a school field trip. The trip was amazing and super fun. Basically we tested their new robot system, and it was really cool. After we finished, we fought each other (the other kids). Also, the cafeteria was great, the “vending machines” were well stocked, and overall I had a great time. I wish I could go back and relive that day.“

“The food was superb. The octopus and mushroom appetizers were fabulous. The sampler plate was great. The server was very attentive and friendly. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is very warm and inviting. Evvia is one of the best restaurants in the Bay Area, in my opinion!“

“Enjoyed omakase 8pcs with some age dashi tofu, nigori sake and the white peach panna cotta!“

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

“When it comes down to Mediterranean food, I would fall into Mazra. However, Mazra now has a worthy rival! What's unique about a smaller restaurant like Nomadic Kitchen is that you feel the place more intimated. I like how the owner/manager and server take a great care of us. When we are about to order 4 choices of mezze, the owner/manager said he will take care of the choices for us and give us samples of everything else as well. The result: the beautiful palette of colors and flavors! I was a bit surprised that we got bread rather than pita. Still, it was amazing! We got the grilled lamb, which is quite nice, no hard-to-chew pieces at all. On top of that, the rice and bulgar (I guess) are so delicious with different fragrance and texture. The dishes are well thought out and so healthy as well. This place becomes one of the most amazing Mediterranean restaurants with reasonable prices. I definitely will come back and eat there again.“

“First time here. Long line to get in but it moved fairly quickly. Had the Roast beef Aburasoba. Mind-Boggling GOOD! The flavor was out of this world! The service was fantastic!! I can’t wait to go back again!“

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

“This is the best Nepali food in the silicon valley. The food is 100% authentic and fresh. They had the best thali I've had in a long time. The Thali comes on a brass dish just like in Nepal.

The tea and kheer are very flavorful.

The service is impeccable and welcoming. The staff will chat with you if you wish and are so happy to share Nepali culture.

The music is what actual Nepali people listen to instead of just Nepali classical

I wish I could eat here every day“

“One of the best casual Cuban spots in the bay area & excellent for take-away!

The Ropa Vieja, Bistec and Shrimp Fajitas are all delicious. Plantains are awesome when they're properly roasted/caramelized. Amazing sauces...make sure you try the Guava BBQ and the Guantanamo Sauce.“

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

“We tried the Gyu King Ramen and the Original King Ramen.

The Gyu King (limited edition) was amazing!The broth had such a rich, deep beef flavor and tasted super comforting. Definitely worth trying while it’s available.

The Original King is always solid. I like adding a bit of the spicy sauce which cuts the richness and makes the soup feel lighter and more balanced.

Would happily come back again!“

“Great place to have dinner, great service and the food is delish“

“This is a welcoming restaurant with a very gracious manager! Three of us had lunch there on Sat. for the first time. We opted for indoor window seating but there is ample and comfortable outdoor seating, as well. The Wiener Schnitzel was tender, the Eggs Benedict tasty, the arugula salad fresh. Next time I will try the Jäger Schnitzel. The Sacher Torte was perfect! We were treated to extra birthday desert--without asking for it--which was a thoughtful gesture. Naschmarkt was spotless clean, and the kitchen ventilation works well. It is very suitably located at the quieter side of California Avenue, close to public parking.“

“Fast friendly service. But you’ll be taking a to-go bag home for sure!! I was stuffed!!“

“#AmazingHotel #ParkJamesHotel 🥰“

“Mr Ralph Carico is the most skilled trader I've ever encountered, I will certainly advise everyone to utilize his service, He’s so wonderful Ralph Carico.“

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

“Managed to get a last-minute reservation and felt quite lucky! The restaurant even followed up to confirm our arrival. The service was excellent—they even poured the sake for us. I loved the heated tray on the table that kept our skewers warm; it’s such a thoughtful touch. The menu has plenty of options, and though the place is small, it feels very cozy and atmospheric. The upside-down umbrellas hanging from the ceiling are a unique touch. One thing to note: it’s quite dim inside, so it’s a bit hard to take photos. If you're taking a group shot, watch out for blurriness!“

“My experience with Broadway Masala has been outstanding and extraordinary. Customer service 5 out of 5. Food 10 out of 5. Yes 10. Amazing food. Love this place. Staff amazing. Chef amazing. Thank you for being so good. We have a place to dine for every special moment now. Five star hands down. 🤗“

“Cocktails and Wagyu - soooo good!“

“The outdoor patio was perfect for our Sunday brunch and our 18th Anniversary. We’ve celebrated many occasions at All Spice and have always had a stellar experience with the staff and the food. Our table felt intimate — we were sharing a large space with four other tables, appropriately distanced. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Again, all Covid-19 compliant. The food, oh the food! The Dutch baby was perfectly cooked and the fruit fillings were gorgeous. The chicken sandwich was out of this world. The Mimosa and hard apple cider beverages were on point. We always love our meals at All Spice and this time was no exception. It’s a total gem!“

“Halal beef burgers, made to order, soft brioche buns, veggie options, yummy milkshakes! Definitely with be a place we frequent! Face friendly business, family owned and operated 👏🏼🇺🇸“

“Their tilapia fillet is excellent. Gyros is good. Best baklava. Staff are friendly, cordial, polite and professional. As soon as we walked in, they recognized us.“

“Food was fantastic! Covid has hit all restaurants hard and La Stanza was new to Menlo Park opening in January 2020. The owner / chef has his Italian cuisine dialed. The cesar salad was dressed to perfection served on a chilled plate w/shavings of Parmigiano Reggiano.. Delish! My short rib ravioli special was exactly what I was hoping for. Hand made in house pasta baked to perfection. My wife had the sacchettto vegi pasta pocket stuffed w/vegis . The red sauce had tremendous flavor... and perfect to mop up with the bread. 🤪... This place is a must try!“

“Excellent servers, friendly owner and the atmosphere is very cozy and beautiful. The red pasta was al dente & yummy. The pizzas crust is just too crispy, hard and thin for us. The toppings tasted great though. The oil drops add great flavor. I still recommend trying once in case you like their type of crust.“

“Everything! It's a flawless dining experience.“

“Great cheap breakfast spot, the staff are great and the food is good. The food was so cheap I ordered a waffle in addition to my French toast.
They have a nice little bar for single individuals.
The only thing I would change is their French toast uses regular bread. Maybe I had to ask for large Texas toast, which I prefer.“

“Amazing food and excellent service!“

“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.“

“New York Pizza in Palo Alto is, in my opinion, the best pizza in the Bay Area. The taste of their pizzas is absolutely delightful, and the ingredients are fresh and high-quality. The staff is just amazing, so attentive, friendly, and always ready to serve and make sure you’re satisfied. I love dining in, but their delivery service is also fantastic. It’s a treat every single time! Thank you for everything!“

“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“

“We love this restaurant! The food is phenomenal and delicious.“

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

“Great food and even better service. I ordered the chicken kebab plate. It's a healthy portion. I also received a free cream of mushroom soup from the owner. He checked on me several times to see if I needed anything. I would highly recommend this place.“

“Warm and friendly spot. If the Rack of Lamb is offered… do not pass it up, it was a Culinary experience!“

“Delicious, high-quality Indian food that preserves the authentic flavors of North Indian cuisine without overwhelming heat. The dishes are well balanced and thoughtfully prepared.

I tried the brunch thali which was generous, good variety of dishes, and very filling. The chaat starters were excellent, and the biryani is a must-order! deeply flavorful and aromatic. Haven’t tasted such a delicious biryani in a long time. Easily one of the better-quality Indian restaurants in this area.

The ambiance is clean, spacious, and comfortable, with outdoor seating available. Service is polite and friendly. Overall, very good value for money.“
