17 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Brookings

“Phenomenal sushi, phenomenal service and ambience. Not only was their seafood delicious, but even their burger was exceptional. The ‘Red Dragon’ specialty roll might be one of the best sushi rolls I’ve had in America. Would highly recommend checking Pacific Sushi out, as it’s an incredible gem in a small town like Brookings.“

“The most amazing blueberry pancakes! Fast, friendly service. Highly recommend!! 💕“

“Another fun meal today... a warm greeting by the staff... I so enjoy dining at this place...!“

“We visited the Black Trumpet Bistro on a quiet, rainy Sunday night in December, to celebrate our engagement. We were seated as walk-ins with no wait. Our expectations were high after hearing a pair of locals share their story of a wonderful experience here. After being seated, we were greeted by Tyler. His masterful description of the specials made it difficult to pass on these dishes. We placed our order for an appetizer; my fiancée chose the cioppino, and I chose the ribeye steak with garlic mashed potatoes, resisting the temptation of the steak and lobster, and adding a side of champagne risotto that was paired with the aforementioned surf and turf. Tyler brought us some warm rosemary focaccia bread with oil and balsamic, which was quickly devoured. Our appetizer arrived; we chose the whipped ricotta crostini . A perfectly toasted crostini, a light spread of fluffy ricotta, topped with a blend of tomatoes, balsamic, and basil. Delicious and juicy with a touch of sweet, we were very excited for the rest of our meals after this dish set a high bar! While waiting for our main course, we began to look over the cocktail menu and wine list. We didn't plan on having cocktails or wine, but their offerings made our choice to abstain seem like we could really be missing out. We tried two specialty cocktails, both of which were very well received. One seasonal, “Grinch”-themed cocktail nailed the color and went down smooth. The other, the “Blueberry Hill,” with house-infused blueberry liqueur, was also excellent. I also ordered a glass of Ferrari-Carano Sauvignon Blanc (Kim Crawford is also available) with the thought that it would pair well with the champagne risotto. The wine list had some of my personal favorites, like Conundrum’s red blend and varieties from Duckhorn, Rombauer, and Caymus. A very good list! Our entrées arrived, along with more bread, and looked excellent. The cioppino was piled high. My fiancée had no complaints and soaked up nearly all the delicious broth with the warm focaccia. My steak was cooked to a perfect medium-rare and was incredibly tender. The gorgonzola cream sauce was thinner than I expected but still had great flavor that paired well with the ribeye, and probably would with any steak. The risotto left just a tiny bit to be desired, but I imagine when it is served with the dish it was intended for (the lobster tails or steak and lobster), it would really have given me what I was looking for! We also ordered the chocolate cake for dessert. Presented well and served cold, it was thick and rich. It certainly checks the box for chocolate lovers, but I suspect this is not a dish that is made in-house. I could be wrong, but it didn't strike me as though this place has a dedicated pastry chef handling the desserts. All in all, we had an excellent meal and would encourage others to visit this establishment. Constructive criticisms: The presentation of the ribeye could be improved. It’s tough to serve mashed potatoes and make them pretty. My only suggestion would be to pipe them through a pastry bag or switch from mashed potatoes to another potato dish, like a Hasselback or layered au gratin. But to be clear, my dinner was in no way disappointing. The tables are set with a tablecloth and a “roll-up” of silverware. This is fine! But a candle, salt and pepper shakers, and maybe setting the silverware with a bread plate would really make these tables feel a bit more luxurious and inviting. If these are the best criticisms I can come up with, this place is doing something very right! Great job, Black Trumpet Bistro! You made our engagement celebration truly memorable.“

“We just moved to Crescent City not too long ago and the options for vegans are slim. While we were in Brookings yesterday I ordered the Vachos and the veggie wrap to take home for dinner! my goodness the best food I have had in a long time! The lady that helped me was super kind and helpful! She shared my enthusiasm with that vegan cheese! The rest of the day I annoyed my husband with how much I love that food! I can't wait to come back!“

“Tried the flight and beers were all top notch. Liked that they had multiple darker beers alongside some good IPAs.
They also have beer shades! Little huts to protect from getting light struck - they know beer!
Nice big place. Came back later in the day for live music, comfy couch, and some more brews.“

“Stopped in last night and had a couple of IPAs that were delicious. Also love the theme! The brewer was super friendly and even gave us a mini tour even though it was close to closing. We’ll definitely be coming back here next time we pass through!“

“great food, high quality ingredients.“

“I love this place, everytime I'm in town I stop and get something different. Top notch food great service!!!! Give them a try you won't be disappointed!!!!“

“We ordered Calzones and they were great.
Usually a restaurant doesn’t like to fill it with meat and vegetables and cheese, but this one did. It was stuffed to Full.
The marinara sauce was very tasty.
We don’t live in the area so I doubt we’ll get a chance to come back again. But if I lived here, I would definitely come back again. ✅“

“The food was delicious! Even my picky eater loved her food! The service was great! I was a little hesitant after reading some of the reviews and the service from a few other places in town we went to but this spot was a fabulous find! Had we found it earlier we would have gone again! It is definitely worth trying!“

“Can we all say Steamer clams. YUM!! It's by far the best I have had in a 400 miles radius. I have had them at many places and none compare to the Catalyst. The flavor is on point, that sausage really tops it off. I will always get the steamers. Also the Coastal Lemonade drink is awesome 👌. Their fresh oysters are great too when served on the half shell, not a fan of the ones served in a plastic cup. Just doesnt feel right. Happy to see they are serving their drinks in glasses now, not plastic cups. I highly suggest checking this spot out. They offer out door seating which is great on a sunny day. 🌞 customer service has always been good.“

“awesome food, great prices, great service, the people are very friendly and fast! highly recommend them.“

“great staff, even greater food! great selection of local brews“

“Good food and good service. Please turn down the live music. It is so loud both inside and out that you can't talk over it. Nice music, it's just a couple of notches too loud. Thanks!“

“Food was great. First time I've tried clam chowder over biscuits. The chowder had a food amount of clams not like other places where its mostly potatoes or carrots. Staff was a little rude we asked for extra sauce and they told us to come get in and get it cause they were to busy. Which I understand cause they had job openings on the window for help. Overall good experience. Price for two was around $65 with drinks. They only have canned drink options“

“great food and better service“
